WASHINGTON. April l2.-What-
ever political party is IN national
power receives an annual subsidy
Of about 100000 900 in postmasters'
salaries from the public purse the
House Civil Service Committee has
been told. Il is conducting hearings
on bills TO put all postmastershIps
undsr the civil service system.
Luther c. Steward. president Of
the National Federation Of Federal
Employees. and other witnesses. in
GLIDING Rep Paul Kv3le FL
Mimi. testified that political post
masters IN general spenC most Of
their official time IN advancing he
local interests Of their party. Their
civil service assistants do the actual
work Of handling the mails.
There are $1,000 political post
masters" Figuring their annual
salaries at an average Of $1,000 each,
witnesses described the total OF $50
600 600 as a recurring campaign
fund that VIII go on and on until
the system IS changed
If pOstmasJers are made non pO-
liucal, it was argued eventually the
postal service can be- relieved Of the
political dead weight and a sub
stantial reduction can be made in
personnel and salary expenditures.
This result could not be attained for
some years, however
The present postmasters would
mostly be retained. but they would
have to give more attention to
public business. Even If they we're
fired outright. it was stated many
would not suffer because they have
other businesses and the postofhce
connection is mercy remunerative

Rep Robert Ramspeck ID, Ca.

one Of the bills, supports the move
ment on the argument that Con-
gresham would make fewer enc
mics if he did not have 10 turn
down dozen candidates every time
he names postmaster. In one
large Office in his district. he re-
lated rival bands of politicians we're
campaigning for the plum, but he
solved the dilemma by appointing
a veteran civil service postal en-
ploye The result. he said. was that
everybody was pleased-the politi-
clans because their rivals didn't get
the job, and the public because they
got better service from the expert
enCed postmaster.
Mr. RamSpeck expects a favorable
committee report but is not sure of
House passage, although President
Roosevelt and Postmaster General
James A Farley have expressed
themselves in favor of the idea.

THE outstanding exhibition 50
Il far this year for this city is
that Of Robert c. Vose's collec-
ton AZ the John Heron Museum.
Mr. Vose. well-known Boston
collector and art dealer, has
brought an array Of English.
French and American oils 70

throughout the month of April.
Perhaps the most important
group IN the show IS that Of Sir
Joshua Reynolds His Mrs.

Of his technique and talent as any
Of his more famous paintings.
Mrs. Collier, an earlier portrait
done in an oval, IS an unusual
pose for Reynolds but lacks none
Of his smooth application.
OF course, the "Offy Palmer
Reading 'Clarissa' " is the most
interesting Of the Reynolds group.

bitiOn but Mr.. VoSe is bringing 1t

month.

MOST interesting from the
WI standpoint OF Americanism

Mr. Vose's father, S. NJ. Vose,
was the first collector to bring
any Of the Barbizon paintings to
America, returning from Europe
with a small group of the works
IN 1852
OF the modern collection, in
terest VIII probably center around
Claude Monet's "Nympheas,"
peculiar painting of the surface
of lake or stream in which the
only actual subject matter is a
patch of water lilies. The leader
of the ImpresSionists who at

interesting canvas in 'Nympheas"
than could come from a mere
technical venture. The thin
streak of haze in the picture

painting into an imaginary
background of hidden beauty.

MONTGOMERY
PERMITS SOAR

BETHESDA, Md, June "a.
Building permits totaling nearly
two and one-half million dollars
have been issued in the Washing
ton suburban area of Montgomery
county during the past five and
one half months, according to
figures released today by E. j.
Gray, county building inspector.
This figure is approximately
100000 higher than that for the
entire year 1884, Mr.. Gray said.
In 1884 construction costs were
about $2,3OO,000.
While this years building boom
is hardly expected to equal that
of 1926-27 and %, when the sub
urban area underwent intensive
development, officials feel that
1885 figures will far surpaSS
those of more recent periods.

Requests to Dogs, Cats
Contested in Court

One of the provisions of the will
was that $1,000 requests should
be given the Animal Rescue

of Cruelty to Animals, and the
Richmond and Massachusetts,
branches of the same society. Her
two pet dogs and three cats were
given a trust fund for their care
the remainder of their lives at a
Massachusetts, rest farm.
Mr.. Neill doubts the validity OF
the will, which is corrected in
many particulars in pencil, and
stated that it is his opinion Mrs.
