PAY ISSUE BLOCKED
McCarl Maintains Former Stand
on Money Held Enormously
Deducted.

Efforts of employees of the District
Water Department to collect pay
which. it was contended. had been er-
roneously deducted under the Econ
omy act. were blocked today by Con-
troller General McCarl.
McCarl held in conformity with a
previous ruling by the District Com
missioners that the deduction had
been properly made.
The issue was raised by the Ameri-
can Federation of Government En-
ployes. 1t had contended the water
funds were for maintenance and dis
tribution of the water system only and
that, therefore, it was not proper that
the pay OF the workers should have
been deducted and segregated with
other deductions made throughout the
Federal Government.
McCarl held, however, that the only

talked to him about the bill was
Robert w. Hainey, attorney for the
West Texas Utility Co.
Before Blanton took the stand, he
was introduced to Carpenter by Sena-
tor Connally, Democrat. of Texas.
Connally objected vigorously as photo
graphers began taking pictures of him
chatting with the power officials.
Blanton described Hainey as
friend and pal" and said he had
entertained Hainey rather than vice
versa.
Raps Carpenter Salary.
Blanton denounced Carpenters
salary of $4,000 a year as "uncon-
ceivable"
IF he's worth $4,000, then the
chairman Of this committee, Senator
Black of Alabama, is worth 100000
a year to the people" Blanton said
I'm backing this committee 100
per cent" he added. This commit
tee is doing wonderful work"
Blanton remarked that if Car
penter received a salary Of $4,000
"as YOU and do. Mr. Chairman, the
other $4,000 could be used for
dividends to the people-there's the
crux of the whole thing"
Black asked how many kilograms
Blanton got on the bill.
They came in volumes from every
section of the country. 1t was propa-
ganda of the worst kind. 1t was so
evidently propaganda they went into
the waste basket as fast as they
came In"
Blanton said he replied only to
those from personal friends, and that
when he explained to them his posi-
tion most of them told him to go
ahead.
Pastors Letter Read.
Carpenter testified he could not re-
call writing letters about the utility
bill to ministers-"we did not single
them out as a claSs'-but said he re-
ceived some communications from
them.
Black then had him read a letter
Carpenter received from G. E. Cecil.
pastor of church in Neches, Tex. at
tacking power rates and advising the
T. P. & L. to lower its charges.
AS he f1nidshed reading, Carpenter
said:
Now, Mr.. Black. about this letter;
companies are bound to get some crit
ical letters-even some Senators get
criticism, unjustly so, of course"
Black then asked Carpenter if he
had refreshed his memory over night
with regard to his activities on the
Sunday before the House vote on the
utility bill.
He said yesterday he did not re-
member giving the pped
package to a Congressman.
DO you remember now Black
asked.
Yes, sir" Carpenter replied.
81 called my wife and told her of the
questioning yesterday. She laughed
and said, Don't you remember. we
were out all day together on that day
with our boys?'"
Carpenter added he and his family
drove around Washington suburbs all
day and had lunch in nearby Alexan-
dria.
II don't know why didn't remember
that yesterday" he added
He denied anyone had visited his
hotel room before he went out with
his family, but said he might have
met some one in the lobby.
Senator Minton, Democrat, Of In
diana, expressed surprise that Carpen-
ter spent all that day driving around
when he was so concerned about the
vote in the House the next day.
Carpenter insisted, however, on his
story.

King Goes to Party.
The presentation ceremony was ac-
complished just before the King went
to the gardens of Buckingham Palace
to mingle with his guests at a party
which marked the official close of the
Jubilee season. Several hundred
Americans, headed by Ambassador
Robert w. Bingham, attended the
party.
An authoritative source said the
ban on arms shipments would con-
tinue in effect at least until the
League Council had opportunity to
consider the Italo-Ethiopian contro-
versy.
The British government will recon-
slider the question. 1t was learned,
should the Geneva efforts to settle
the dispute fail.
From Brussels came the report
that Prime Minister van iceland
told the Foreig Affairs Committee of
the Senate that Belgium had decided
to ban the licensing of arms exports
to Ethiopia. He said the govern
ment's decision was dictated by prac-
tical reasons concerning present cir
cumstances.
Mussolini Word Awaited.
An authoritative source said Great
Britain still was without definite word
from Premier Mussolini on the Italian
plans for next weeks League of Ma
tions Council meeting at Geneva.
It was understood that the British
were prepared to discuss all questions
! involving Ethiopia as well as Italy,
but even this stand has not shaken
Mussolini. from his silence.
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin and

represented as favoring full League ac-

and Ethiopia.

their guides had told them, they
were certain to get shots at Brown

strongly.
But, on entering the bay, they
met another party, a group of men
from Juneau who were hunting in
the region. One of their party was
lost and a search was being started
for him. They asked Captain H. B.
Casey Moran for aid, asking only
that those men aboard the yacht
who were not engaged in aceomp-
anying hunters be allowed to assist
in the search for their companion
The skipper offered to go him
self and also thought it possible to
have the assistance of those guides
in his party whose hunters had al
ready bagged brownies. He laid the
matter before the hunters.
Instead of agreeing to the pro
posal, the hunters insisted that they
make themselves aid in the search.
