UNITE TOPUSH
TRANSFERPLAN
Trend Toward Cancellation
Revealed in Action Taken
BY AFGE and NFFE

After three years of opposition
and controversy, members of the
American Federation of Govern.
ment Employees last night revealed
growing sentiment toward con-
Citation with their older and more
conservative rival, the National
Federation of Federal Employees.
Aiming for the establishment Of
a centralized transfer agency to
enable disc harged emergency
workers to receive first call for
jobs under the new works pro-
gram, AFGE representatives of
three Government units, Federal
Emergency Relief Administration,
Department of Interior and Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administra-
ton, decided to cooperate in full
with locals of NFFE.
Resolution Adopted
The resolution, adopted at a
meeting held at the Powhatan
Hotel, was passed despite recent
opposition by national officers of
the AFGE that was aimed at any
relations with the organization
headed by Luther c. Steward.
A committee, composed Of
Maud Miles, AAA, and Marvel
Keller. Janet Gaines and Edna
Richter, FERA, was appointed by
the meeting to contact Secretary
of the Interior Harold Ickes, Rex
ford G. T1gwell, director of the
Agriculture Resettlement Admin
istration, and Frank Walker, chair
man of the National Emergency
Council, in regard to formation of
a transfer unit to handle dis
charged emergency workers.
Plan is Pushed
The committee was further
directed to contact every Federal
employee organization, with special
emphasis on the NFFE, TO ascer-
tain what agencies will be most
affected by the works shakeup,
and to urge agitation for the for
nation of the transfer unit, which
would operate along the lines of
the Civil Service Commission and
be subsidized by work program
funds.
Questioned today, officials of
the Civil Service Commission said
that a transfer unit for emer-
gency employees is entirely outside
of the commissions scope, and
would have to be a separate or
ganization. A unemployment roS-
ter, for classified workers, has
been kept for years, they said,
adding that such a benefit. for
emergency personnel would have
to be formed either by congress
sional legislation or an executive
order by the President.

FOES Of LEE

The War Between the States
as the Civil War is referred to
below the Mason-Dixon line
was being fought all over again
today following the move to halt
the plan to erect a statue of
Gen. Robert E. Lee in Arlington
National Cemetery.
The move was started by the
Women's Relief Corps of the
G.. A. r. of Massachusetts,, and
has led to nationwide repercus
SionS.
Latest to enter the lists is
Robert Lincoln O'Brien, chair
man of the United States Tariff
Commission and a member of the
Pulitzer Advisory Board which re-
Gently voted a Life of Lee as the
greatest American biography OF
the year. In a statement today
Mr.. O'Brien said:
Gas a citizen Of Massachu-
sets I am deeply Inundated
that any of our people should
appear as sponsors for the pro-
test against statue of Robert
E. Lee at Arlington"
Senator David I. Walsh CD
of Massachusetts,, presented a
petition asking Congress to aban
don the plan to erect the statue
at the old Lee home in Arlington
after the Massachusetts, women
had objected and termed General
Lee a TRAITOR"

100000
New Fund SWeIIs Total for
May to $788,633; Strict
Economy Emphasized

Solving the Districts relief prob
lem for this month, Federal Re-
lief Administrator Harry Hopkins
today allotted an additional $780,
900 for payment to the city's I'M
employed.
The grant swells the total al
lotments for this month to $685..
633, and is considered by District
relief officials to be sufficient for
the administration of relief here.
$166,666 on Hand
In addition to the Federal
money, the District has available
$166, 666, part of which has been
used this month. However, it was
pointed out, a similar sum appor-
toned for use in June can be used
at any time if necessary.
Commissioner George E. Allen
said the allotment today is ap-
proximately 100000 less than the
grant requested and that strict
economies would have to be prac-
ticed. He said:
1.-THE local relief administra-
ton will have to Je economical,
but no deserving case will be cut
off from relief"
Mr.. Allen said that in the case
of an emergency the District can
use the $4,000, 900 relief appropria-
ton contained in it's 1886 fiscal
budget as soon as the measure is
approved by Congress.
Work Plan NearS
However, it is believed that the
Presidents new work program will
have become operative in the Dis
trict some time next month, and
will remove a great portion Of the
city's unemployed from the relief
rolls.
The total Federal allotment for
this month exceeds that of last
month by more than 100000.

PATMAN SEEKS
HIGH TAX|CAB
INSURANCE
Texan Would Boost Liability OF
Public Vehicles As Pro-
posed in Bill

A proposal to force taxicabs
and other commercial vehicles in
the District to carry insurance
that would make them respon-
sible up to $4,000 in case OF
permanent injury or death and
$1,000 for property damage was
made today by Representative
Wright Patman CD of Texas.
The proposal was made at a
hearing of the streets and traffic
subcommittee of the House Dis
trict Committee which had under
consideration the Quinn bill Tor
compulsory taxicab insurance.
AS is now drafted, the measure
fixes the amount of responsibility
in death or permanent injury
cases at $4,000 with $500 the max
imum for property damage.
When he ordered the bill tenta-
lively amended so as to provide
the higher rates, Representative
Patman was warned by. Peoples
Counsel William A. Roberts that
the increased figure might jeopar-
die passage of the legislation.
Representative James L. Quinn
3D. of Pennsylvania, author OF
the bill, said that the increased
amount of liability would cause
racketeering by persons who would
incur injury Intentionally to col
Loot fro,1o tho insurance cOnnDa-
MES.
Representative Patman also
suggested that the bill be amended
to include buses. AS now drafted,
the measure covers taxicabs, sight
seeing hacks, and other vehicles
for hire, but exempts BUSES.
No effort was made by the sub
committee to report the bill out
today and Representative Patman
called a hearing fo- 10 a. N. to-
morrow.

Ken Murray
Says:

Judging from the increased
number of automobile accidents
lately, it seems like these balmy
days are dangerous for the man
on the street. Yes, sir! And
if the auto don't get you, the
auto salesman will.
When you read about the new
bullet-Shaped cars going a hun
dred miles an hour, it's hard to
figure out what modern trans
portation is aiming at. but we
suspect it's the pedestrians.
Statistics prove that more
people are killed by autos than
by airplanes. OF course. it's
only fair to add that the motor
lists have had more experience.
so REMEMBER:
The best way to reduce accf.
dents. is to build cars SO they
can't go any faster than the
average driver thinks.

SEND DIME
MOVE DYING

Assistant District Postmaster
William H. Haycock today COM
posed the epitaph of the Send
a Dime Prosperity Club" so far
as the Capital is concerned.
The "send-a-dime" craze, which
hit washington a few days ago has
definitely spent its force, Mr..
Haycock declared, and a few
more days will render the scheme
no more than a memory.
To a host of the Districts en-
ployes, however, the memory will
be an unpleasant recollection for
some time to come. Aching backs
and weary arms testify to the
extra load thousands of thin
dimes provided for the city's mail
carriers. Telephone operators at
the post office, who answered
thousands of requests for in
formation on the plan, will not
easily forget the spasm.
In the last few days, Mr..
Haycock said, there has been a
sharp decline in phone queries
and an absence of the tell-tale
dime marks in current patches of
local pOst-office matter.

To BEHAVE
Or GET OUT
Rep. EIIenbogen Angered BY
Remarks at Hearing on Biz
to Set Up Rent Board

Charging Rufus S. Lusk, repre-.
senting the Washington real estate
legislative committee with being
unfair, Representative Henry Ellen
bogen of Pennsylvania electrified
the crowded House causcus room
today when he told Mr.. Lulsk that
if he didn't behave" he couldn't
testify.
The break came near the con-
clusion of Mr.. Lusk's testimony be-
fore a subcommittee of the House
District Committee holding hear
ings on the llenbogen bill to set
up a rent commission in the Dis
trict. +
Mr.. Lusk testified that there
was no rent emergency in Wash
ington and that the rents in Wash
ington were not higher than out
side.
Rebuked by Chairman
A battle of words ensued over
group of charts and figures
submitted by Mr.. Lusk, who
GQeT6upOu declared.
"All right, / won't go on with
that point any longer if the
committee won't accept stats.

Labor"
Representative Reuben r. Wood

shouted:
"That's not true. We never
said that"
In a more formal tone, but
with a rising voice, Representative
Ellenbogen broke in with:
"That is an entirely unfair
statement, Mr.. Lusk, and you
know it.
Don't you say the committee
is not accepting figures from
the Department of Labor. You
will have to behave yourself if
you want to appear before this
committee and stop making &C

Mr.. Lusk appeared chastened
and said: "All right"
Soon afterward the committee
recessed to answer a roll call.

Following searching interro-

rupted.
Representative Wood brought
out the fact that Mr.. Lusk had
received $500 from the Real Es-

Mr.. Lusk said there was no
shortage in housing accommoda"
lions. He estimated the present
population of Washington at 525,.
600. Representative Ellenbogen
Immediately countered with an
estimate that the present popula-
ton was about 585, 200, and that
it would be higher very soon.
Introduces Charts
Unable to reach common ground
on the population figures, Mr..

based on his figures which Repre-
