By tng Associated Press.
PARIS, September 14.-Nationalists
charged the Blum government today
with attempting to provoke a native
uprising in French Morocco in the
hope the rebellious movement would
spread to Spanish Morocco and cause
trouble for Spanish Fascists.
Communists, on the other hand, de-
elared a Rightist military coup was
planned for Morocco with the COM
plicity of Resident General Marcel
Peyrouton."
The Rightist newspaper Echo de Paris
reported all chieftains of ADD El-Krim,
former war lord of the Riff, had been
freed from exile and permitted to
return.
Several quarters affirm the govern
ment Is trying to provoke trouble in
North Morocco to harass both
Peyrouton and Franco (Gen. Francisco
Franco. leader of the Spanish insur-
gents)," the newspaper declared.
Some insist revolt in the neighbor-
ing zone would serve as an occasion
for France to make war on the insur-
gents on the pretext of re-establishing
order"
The Communist newspaper HUI
mantle demanded the removal from
office of the resident-general, while
informed sources predicted the gov
ernment probably would transfer Pey-
routon, long attacked by the Leftists
for his Rightist sentiments, to another
post.
Abd-el-Krim, meanwhile, appealed
to the government to be freed from his
10-year exile and promised to be use
full to France" If permitted to return
to his native country or to settle on

TEST POLICY
CRITICS
By ]. EARLE MOSER

Speaking before the Philadel'

ell Of the Civil Service Commis.
sion. made certain to express him
self fully as he defended the com
mission from criticisms that have
been directed against 1t in the
past few months.
Particularly did the official
strike back at the thrusts Civil
Service has taken over its policy
on handling examinations. De
claring that Civil Services job Is
to find the best person available
for a vacancy. he said:
"Our initial problem Is that
Of examinations, and 1t Is
never ending problem. We have
on the one hand people demand
ing that the prerequisites for an
examination be put so low that
we win be swamped with appli-
cations. and on the other hand
the Budget Bureau and the AP-
nrouriations Committee demand
ing that we do something to
limit the tremendous number OF
applicatiOnS that we have been
receiving during the past few
years.
"We have people demanding
that we do away with all age
limits for examinatiOnS-whlch
would; of course, still further in
crease the number taking the ex'
aminatiOns-and we know from
experience that generally speak.
ing these older people have little
hone of evec obtaining positions,
exceDt where the examinations
are for high grade scientific or
professional positions.
"Then we have personnel au-
thOrities who tell us that the
best Of all tests are the general
mental tests, and others who
Sneer at all mental tests and In
sist that q persons capacity can
be determined only by what
they term practical tests or ex-
perience."
During his address Mr.. Mitchell
also declared the merit system has
done far better during recent years
than some of its defenders will ad-
init.

Creamery Installs
Up-to-date Churn
New Unit Replaces Old Type Roller
Machine-Has Capacity of
1900 Pounds

To promote efficiency and ease
of handling their output the Sauk
Lake Cooperative Creamery has in
stalled an up-to-date vane churn
with a butter capacity of 1900
pounds. This new unit replaces an
old type roller churn of only 1900
pound capacity, 1t was announced
this week.
The new churn though larger is
simpler. The stationery vanes work
the butter thoroughly and roll it in
to one ball in the center of the
churn necessitating only one door
for the removal Of the churned but
ter. The shelves used in the old
type Of roller churn in which there
are three rollers which pile the
butter in rolls on each of the two
shelves are entirely eliminated.
Besides facilitating removing but
ter from the churn the new unit
has less machinery and extra parts
needing care.
