Most of the criticism by the

Miss Penn Tells Evils
Of Marriage Clause

Another indication of the rising
tide of sentiment against the So
called married persons" clause
of the economy act, Section 213,
barring either husband or wife
from Government service, was
presented today when the dainty
hand of Esther Penn, secretary
Of the American Federation of
Government Employees, was raised
against the measure.
Miss Penl, a former Civil Serv-
ice worker stationed in Washing"
ton State, who has been national
secretary of the AFGE for the
last three years, presented a
graphic Illustration of the injus-
tice of the present regulation,
saying:
1.-TWO days ago a young woman
Of my acquaintance applied at
q certain department for a pO-
sition, which she badly needs.
It was suggested to her that If
she would obtain a divorce, she
would then be eligible under the
law possibly to get q job"
Repeal Is Urged
Declaring that section 213 Is
emphatically not in keeping with
the merit system, and strongly ad'
vocating a repeal of the rule as
soon as possible, Miss Penn contin
ued:

SWANSON TILTS
WITH |CKES
ON FUNDS

A Secretary of the Navy Claude
A. Swanson, ready to do battle
with any who cross his path, as
he has shown in his brush with
Comptroller General McCarl,
struck out at another admin1Stra-
tive figure today and answered
the criticism of Secretary Of the
Interior Harold L. 1ckes, who be-
lieves the Navy is too slow in
expending the funds allotted it by
the PWA for ship construction. ,
Not only does the Secretary, in
a written statement, rebuke the
PWA Administrator for his crit
icism, but "correctS" Mr.. 1ckes on
a statement concerning the ex'
penditure Of the 238 million'dol'
lar PWA naval construction fund.
Mr.. Ickes said at a recent press
conference that to date only $780,
100000 of the total had been put
into circulation. Says Mr.. Swan
son: :
"That Is incorrect. We have
spent 100 million dollars"
The Secretary goes on in his
statement to point out that the
money is being spent at the rate
of from $7,00O,O00 to $4,000, 900
per month, affording employment
for some $4,000 men. This $4,000
includes about $4,000 men en-
ployed at the site Of the ship
building and approximately $4,000
additional workers employed as
sembling material and conSe-
quently scattered throughout the
country, he declares. He adds:
