EVIDENCE LACKING, |BODIAN RELEASED
Judge Suggests That M. V.
 Dept Study Illegal Reg istratiOn Charge

Henry Bodian. 30, of 28 Center street, won a discharge in city court this morning on charges of operating a car with illegal mark CTS. when Judge John +. McGrath said evidence against the man was insufficient and that the matter was one for the motor vehicle de- partment to handle.
 Bodian was arrested by Patrol man Patrick Moylan of the emer- gency squad. who claimed that Bo- dian was regularly operating a car registered in the name of Rose Carter. The policeman's contention was that Bodian had registered the car in the woman's name to avoid insurance difficulties. while the &C., cused declared that the car is really owned by Rose Carter and had been borrowed by him.
 Tony DiMinzio, 21, waived ex- animation and was bound over to superior court on a statutory charge. Watertown authorities are joining with local police in press ing the case. The lad surrendered last week to Detective Connie Shan nahan when he learned that a warrant for his arrest had been Is. sued. Bonds were set at $2,00O.
 John DiRuss0, Al, of 10 Court street, paid $5 for nolle on a charge of passing a red light.

Recording Secretary

HcCOf0ing secretary Mir DeValera has been invited to review the parade and 1t Is possible that he will accept the invitation.
 There is no nation in the world perhaps, which has not benefited by this unquenchable spirit, but none more so that their own.
 Recent researches into early American history have proven beyond are reasonable doubt that well over 45 per cent of Washington's army were either born in Ireland or were of Irish decent. Therefore, Ireland's sons have had much to do about making America the nation that it is to-day, the richest and most respected in all the world.
 Irish blood and Irish sacri- fees, have hallowed every bat tlefield from Bunker Hill to Chateau Thierry. Irish blood has decorated the soil of every coun- try in which the United States army was engaged.
 when westward the course of the empire takes it's sway" Irish brain and Irish brawn were in the vanguard of that noble band of pioneers which opened the limitless expanse of the west and made this country of ours the wealthiest. most powerful, and most peace-loving country on the face of the globe.
 Is 1t any wonder then, that the rish-American Club seeks on Ireland's national holiday to make a street demonstration in tribute to our race? Every American of whatever original race. owes it to his country and to himself to cooperate with us in tribute to a race whose con- tribution to American history is so large and so varied.

1T does not restore the re-enlist-
ment allowances suspended by section

workable and probably to eliminate

Bank Legislation Studied.
Banking legislation has not yet
been considered by the President,
since 1t is still being studied by the
Emergency Executive Council, but it
will be inserted late on the schedule.
A st. Lawrence waterway treaty,
revised to meet objections that caused
rejection of ratification "a to AZ last
year, will be presented to the Senate
for early action.
Consolidation Of all forms Of inter-
state transportation regulation under
one agency also will be submitted with
no final presidential decision as yet
reached whether the Interstate Com
merce Commission or some other body

railroads, motor, waterway, pipeline

Quick ratification by the Senate of
the protocol for American adherence
to the World Court also appeared
likely to be pressed by the admins
tration. Senator Robinson of Arkan-
sas declared after a talk with the
President yesterday that it would
receive committee approval next We'd

1t developed further that the ad-
ministration had assured itself by a
survey of unexpended appropriations
that $3.50 100000 would be found.
This fund, through legislation to
be introduced this week by Chairman
Buchanan. Democrat. of Texas of the

applicable
a. The same result would have to
follow the elimination of the reduc-
ton as followed the per centum de-
crease in the percentage of cut ef-
fective on February /, 1884, and the
further decrease of per centum ef-
fective on July /. 1885. under section
81 of the Independent Offices act, 1885.
So far as I know, no one failed to re-
ceive his increase.
Appropriation in Doubt.
"Some question can arise as to
whether the proposed bill would itself
appropriate sums to enable payment
of full salary as was done by section
81 (e) of independent Offices, 1885,
in the case of the restoration of S per
centum and 10 per centum. I don't
think that appropriation could be held
available, for it relates only to dimi-
nutions under this title in the per-
centage of reduction-that Is, Title II
of Independent Offices, 1885, and Sec
ton l of the proposed bill is not in
terms an amendment of Title II OF
that act.
Section 2 does the following as Of
January l, 1885:
Il. 1T restores the statutory pay Of
the Vice President, the Speaker, Sen
ators, Representatives, delegates and
resident commissioners. 1t also re-
of the Senate and House, except clerks
to members of the House. In the case
Of such clerks, the full clerk allow
ance is restored to the member as his
clerk allowance and he can divide it
among his clerks as he sees fit but
cannot pay any one of them at a rate
greater than $4,000. The fair con-
struction of this provision seems to
me that the member can divide one
half of his full allowance of $4,000
among his clerks for the remainder
of the fiscal year but no clerk can
get compensation at a six-months' rate
of more than 81 $50, rather than that
the S per centum savings for the first
six months are added to the $4,000
and that sum may be divided.

reductions Interstate Commerce Com

PHILCO RADIO
EXPANDS
Increasing Demand for Radios
Necessitates Many Additional
Workers.

With more than $500 workers on a
payroll which amounts to nearly one
million dollars a month, Philadelphia
Storage Battery Company, makers OF
.Philco radios, are employing many adj
ditional workers to keep pace with the
increasing demand for radio instru-
ments.
"The hours and working conditions
are better than the NRA code for the
electrical industry" said G. E. Deming,
executive Vice-P President Of the Phila-
delphia Storage. Battery Company.
"Philco's hourly rate is 25.2 per cent
above the average of the balance OF
the radio industry as shown by figures
compiled by the United States Depart
ment Of Labor.
THE advances OF science and inven-
ton in the field OF high fidelity radio
reproduction during the past year have
made possible a fuller enjoyment OF the
many excellent programs Offered the
radio listeners OF America. Greater
public appreciation OF the wealth OF
available radio entertainment, music,
news comment and education, has
translated itself into an increased de-
Imand for quality instruments. The re-
suit has been record-breaking produc-
ltion for Philco during the first half Of
|l955, with indications pointing to even
greater production during the next six
months. Philco will continue to use
the tried and tested glass tubes in the
lsets it manufactures. The increased de-
Inland for our sets reflects consumers
confidence in our product. In spite OF
claims made for the metal tubes, Philco
does not believe in experimenting on
the public.
"The remarkable ability OF short
wave sets to bring in foreign stations
with surprising regularity and clear
mess; the advantage of having all the
broadcasting services in n radio; and
the improved reception obtained with
all-wave discriminating aerials have
contributed to the popularity Of radio.
Not only in home sets is the in
creased production during the fall
months anticipated, but also in auto
mobile radios, The greater enjoyment
OF motoring in radio equipped utomo-
lbiles has become so apparent that it is
expected public demand will 500 es-
tablish radio as standard equipment for
all leading makes OF automobiles.
