London Exercise
 Sought by Edward in Palace Grounds

LONDON, June 26.-It is believed in court circles that King Edward is planning extensive alterations to the grounds of Buckingham Palace so as to make them more suitable for outdoor sport.
 Construction of a swimming pool. a hard tennis court and a squash rackets court are among the pos abilities discussed.
 It is the Kings desire that his presence in London--necessary dur ing large part of the year-should not take from him the opportunities for exercise which he was accus-. toned to enjoy as the Prince of Wales.
 The swimming pool probably will be constructed in a part of the large lake at present devoted to water plants and swans. Although in the heart of London it is admirably screened by the high palace walls and a thick fringe of trees.

PARK SERVICE
CLERKS GET
LATE PAY
BY ]. EARLE MOSER

Approximately $500 employees
Of the National Park Service and
a large number in the Geological
Survey will receive pay checks to-
day after a salary tie-up yester-
day that for a while threatened
to envelop the greater part of the
Department of Interior.
According to officials, a total Of
$500 workers under Interior
found their salary envelopes de-
layed yesterday due to a comb
nation of technicalities, one be-
cause various Interior appropria-
tons had not been earmarked in
sufficient time to allow prompt
debts against them and the other
because General Accounting Of
flee is said to be reorganizing GER
tain disburSing accounts, giving
them new symbol numbers.
The delay caused CONSERVATION
yesterday in five units of the de-
partment, the Park Service, Sec
retary's Office (even Secretary
Ickes' pay being held up), the
General Land office, Geological
Survey and the Office of Educa'
ton. Late in the afternoon, how.
ever, the long-awaited checks came
through for all but the Park Serv'
ice and part of Geological Survey.
Many workers in the two latter
units found themselves completely
without funds for the evening and
were forced to borrow from more
fortunate colleagues, but official
announcements today were spe-
cific in stating that all would be
taken care of before $3.50 p. M,
closing time. Public Works Adj
ministration did not suffer from
any delay yesterday, nor did the
Indian Service.
At General Accounting Office
pay delays for several hundred
emergency workers also caused q
worried rumor for a short time
during the morning, but the
checks were delivered to eager
hands a half hour before lunch
time.

NURSE DISPUTE SETTLED

Peace reigned today between
physicians and nurses at Emer-

days with nurses refusing to an
swer calls for 12-hour shifts Of
duty, was settled.
An agreement was reached at a
closed meeting last night Of the
Nurses Alumnae Association in
the hospital assembly hall.
Under terms Of the agreement,
all nurses will go back on the
hospital register. They will sign
up either for 12-hour shifts, or
eight-hour shifts, or both. Doc
tors, in selecting nurses, will chose
from either list, as desired by the
patients. Through this arrange
ment, it was pointed out nurses

will not be compelled against their
will to work l2,hour stretches.
Karl Corby, head of the hos
pital trustees board, who was pres
ent at the meeting, made it plain
that the dispute was between the
doctors and nurses and not be.
tween the nurses and the hospital.
Miss Janet Fish, superintendent
of nurses, said the pay for nurses
on eight-hour shifts is IS with
two meals, while So with three
meals is the rate for q 12-hour
shift. The agreement put Emer-
gency Hospital on q plane with
Garfield, Providence, Sibley and
George Washington hospitals,
which already have an eight-hour-
a-day for nurses.
