CLAIMS RIDER
'SNEAKED'
INTO BILL
Rep. Sisson to Lead
Floor Fight On
Red Measure

Charges that the House Appro-
priations subcommittee, which
sponsored the Red rider" at
tached to the District supply bill
last year, overstepped its jurisdic-
ton in studying this proposition
were made today by Representa-
tive Fred j. SisSon CD, of New
York, as he prepared to take
lead in the floor fight to repeal
the rider"
Representative SisSon, author
of the Red rider" repeal bill
which yesterday was approved
overwhelmingly by the House Dis
trict Committee, also reiterated
his assertion that the "rider" was
"Sneaked" into the appropriation
bill last year, and that if the
House membership had realized
what was being voted upon at the
time, the rider" never would
have been approved.
The repeal bill will come before
the House on April q, Repre-
sentative Mary T. Norton Cd, Of
New Jersey, chairman of the
House District Committee, an
nounced, but it is expected that
it will be late in May before the
House takes final action on the
measure.
This situation will prevail due
to the fact that District Day"
in the House comes only twice a
month and the bill can be con-
sidered only on such days.
Representative Tom Blanton
CD, of Texas, and Virginia E.
Jenckes CD, Of Indiana, leaders
in the opposition against the Sis
son bill, have announced that they
will employ every parliamentary
tactic permissible to defeat the
bill or to keep it from reaching a
final vote in the House. Under
such circumstances, it is virtually
impossible for the measure to be
voted upon for at least two Dis
trict days.

RULES
PREPARED

The District Personnel Board,
headed by Auditor Daniel j.
Donovan, today prepared set of
temporary regulations to govern
leave of municipal employees,
which will be submitted tomorrow
to the District Commissioners for
their approval.
The new leave law has increased
leave from Is to 26 days annually
and the temporary regulations, q
approved, will be in effect until
President Roosevelt issues orders
governing leave throughout the
entire Government system.
Until the new law was enacted,
employees have been permitted to
take leave at their own discre-
ton, but under present orders the
employees will have to arrange be-
forehand on taking annual leave.
Already two municipal depart
ments, the Police and Fire De-
partments, have asked for addi-
tional men because of the ex-
tended leave provisions.

Following on the heels of Sena-

ment that there is no need for ad-

missioner Melvin c. Hazen an
nounced today that he will not
press at the present time his pro-
posal to increase the gasoline tax

rolls at work on highway projects.
Commissioner Hazen made it
plain that he had not abandoned
the idea of the increased taxation.
He said he is not in accord with
the plan to appropriate only ST.
100000 for relief, as is planned in
the 1887 fiscal year District bud

appropriation will be necessary to
carry the Capitals relief program

if Senator Elmer Thomas CD,
Oklahoma, has anything to do

Senator Thomas will have quita
bit to say about the situation
while he conducts the appropris
ton bill through the Senate
channels in his capacity as chair
man of the Senate District Ap
preparations subcommit: e.
Has Highest Tax
In speaking of the comparisons
of tax burdens between Wash
ington and a number Of othe1
cities which were paraded daily
il. the House to show that taxea
are higher in the States, Senator
Thomas explained that if the
taxes for county, State, interest
payments and amortization Of
debts, of which Washington has
none, were cut from the States
figures it would show Washing
ton carried the highest tax bur
den of any city in the country
In view of this fact, Senator
Thomas is not inclined to put
the city in the position of raising
more taxes to meet he relied
burden. He pointed out that the
relief situation could be han
died through deficien appro
priations i: the bills which wiz
be passed at the close Of this
Congress and the beginning Of
the next. 1T
He said also that the Federal
contribution approved by the Bud
get Bureau is not too much. He
reiterate his statement that
10000 to 10000 of the school chill
dren in Washington have parents
who are citizens of States: that a
number of persons in Washing
tons eleemosynary institutions are
citizens o. States and that the
Federal Government is annually
taking more and more taxable
property from the city for Govern
ment purposes. He said:
I'm view of this situation it
would be unfair to tax the resi-
dents of the District to provide
education for children from the
States and to take care of pa
tientS from other localities"

DRUDGERY CAN Be

College Talks of Eas-

College Station Raleigh, March Il
Take the drudgery out OF house
work and make it healthtul exer-

tension specialist in home manage
ment at State College.
If the hOuseworl is done correctly,
she said, it will be less fatlgulng ana
will help one to keep fit. Bad pos
ture is more exhausting than a reas-
enable amount of work.
To lessen backaches that come
when the housewife stoops to lit
haevy objects, she could bend her
knees and place one foot ahead OF
the other. Keep the back straight
and bend the hips and knees.
This will place the work on the
strong leg muscles and bones, Miss
Gordon explained, and will ease the
strain on the back.
Lifting in this manner also tones
UP the thigh and hip muscles and
helps one avoid the "middle-age
spread" she pointed out.
When reaching forward from SIT
ting position, she continued, 1t is best
to bend at the hips so as to keep the
back straight. Do not bend the trunk
forward when walking up stairs.
Standing and sitting talk" IS

of Its Streams to That

RALEIGH. March Reconsideration
of some $50 miles of the most desir-
able fishing waters Of North Carolina
into natural hatcheries to provide
more enticing angling grounds for
residents of this State and visitors, is
the ambitious program proposed by
the Department of Conservation and
Development, j. D. Chalk, State game
and inland fish commissioner, an
nounced today.
Would Close Streams.
One of the first steps will be to
close these portions of streams all OF
which are in Eastern North Carolina,
to fishing for a specified period
which is contemplated to extend for
a year.
This system is to be tried out in
Eastern North Carolina first, accord
ing to the commissioner, because OF
limited facilities for restocking these
waters from the State hatcheries, anG,
because the game fish found in the
streams cannot be propagated as
easily as mountain trout. The output
of warm water fish depends upon ma
