SPECIAL RULE
TO BE ASKED
IN HOUSE
Rep. Ramspeck Hopes
For Early Hearing
On Request

Application for q special rule
for House consideration of the
marriage clause" repeal bill will
be made Monday by Representa-
tive Robert RamSpeck Cd, Of
Georgia, chairman of the House
Civil Service Committee, it was
learned today.
The Georgian said he hopes
that the Rules Committee will give
him hearing on the proposal
some time during the week, point
ing out that if the rules group ap-
proves his special proposal, the
repeal bill may be called up dur.
ing the following week.
Blocked by COchrane
The repeal bill was favorably
reported by the Civil Service Com.
mittee last session, and when it
was reached on the consent calen.
dar twice this year, it was OBJ
jected to by several members
headed by Representative John I.
Cochran CD, of Missouri, an
ardent advocate Of maintenance
of the marriage clause"
However, Representative Rams.
peck feels that if the measure can
be brought up in the House for a
vote, it will be approved by sub
Stantial majority.
IF the Rules Committee acts
favorably on the resolution for
consideration of the proposal
which the Georgian is to intro.
duce Monday, it is confidently
expected that the House will sup
port the rules group. sss- -,-
Under the repeal measure of
Representative Ramspeck, if re.
ductions in personnel are to be
made at Government agencies,
the first to be let out will be
those whose who have a spouse
in the Federal service and their
combined salaries total more than
$4,000 year.
Financial Worry
The position of the Civil Serv-
ice Committee has been that, un-
der the existing law, young
couples working in the Federal
service and desiring to get mar
ried have either been afraid to
get married or get married secretly
in order that one of them will
not lose his or her job.
These are couples, Representa-
tive Ramspeck points out, whose
salaries are in the lower brackets
and whose total salaries do not
amount to $4,000, and who can
not both live on the small salary
that one alone makes.
It is to eliminate this undesir-
able situation that the committee
primarily believes the repeal
measure should be enacted.
The Washington times., 1936-03-21
LEAVE PARLEY
IS CALLED

In an effort to clarity applica-
ton of the new Annual Leave
Act, the Civil Service Commission
has requested representatives of
all Government agencies to meet
next Thursday at the commits
sion's headquarters to consider
preparation Of regulations as to
hours of duty and annual and
sick leave.
According to reports the new
Annual Leave Act has resulted in
numerous conflicting interpreta-
tions since its passage. It's objec-
tive. as, set forth in Section two
of the act, is the establishment
of regulations "as nearly uniform
as possible" to the end that all
temporary or permanent workers
shall be treated as nearly alike
"as may be practicable"
The act also provides that a sub
committee may be appointed by
the several departmental heads
to draw up such regulations. At
Civil Service headquarters today it
was learned that this procedure
will in all likelihood be followed
when the bureau chieftainS meet
next Thursday.
In this event it will undoubtedly
be some time before the clarified
ton of the leave regulations be-
come effective. It was pointed out
that when the divergence Of opin-
ion on numerous points IN the
act is ironed out in the subcommit-
tee, a report will have to be made
to await the approval Of the COM
mittee as a whole.

Thomas Jordan, 29-year-old bus

ment charging him with first de-
gree murder in connection with
the death of Mrs. Elizabeth s.
Jaynes, 57-year-old cashier, during
the robbery Of the Garden T
Shoppe five years ago.
Two masked men entered the
restaurant on the night of April
3, 1881, and while one Of them
held the patrons at bay with a
pistol, the other rifled the cash
register of more than 500. AS the
robbers fled to a waiting automo-

ing the robbery. He was re-
leased, however, and eliminated
as a suspect.
Last May he wrote a letter to
United States Attorney Leslie C..
Garnett asking whether there
was any further possibility Of his
becoming involved in the police
investigation. Detective Sergt. r.
J. Barrett was dispatched toisMt.
Vernon, N. Y, to interview Jor-
dan.
Confessed, Claim
Jordan is said to have confessed
taking part in the robbery and
implicated Miss Edith M. Dods-
worth, a former waitress in the
restaurant. He stated that his
conscience troubled him, police
say, and that he wished to be-
come married but wanted to re-
move the cloud that lowered over
him.
Miss Dodsworth, although in.
dicted with Jordan, has never
been apprehended. The third
member Of the trio, a man, could
not be identified by Jordan and
is not named in the present In
dictment.
Jordan will be defended by At
