Among such plans, he said, are
the extension of Civil Service to
all branches of the Government,
except so-called policy-making
positions, including postmasterS'
classification for the field service,
establishment of a board of ap-
peals for employees, and clearing
up of injustices allegedly being
made in violation of the recent
sick and annual leave laws.
Mr.. Ramspeck said today that a
board of appeals would have pre-

ROAD TAX FUND
IS RUSHED

KENSINGTON, Md, Sept. IA.
An attempt to gain a larger al
location of State gasoline road
tax funds for Montgomery
county will be made by the
Kensington chamber of COM
merce.
The chamber will attempt to
find the amount of the tax paid
into the State treasury by the
county and compare it with the
amount returned which is approx
imately $4,000 annually.
This move is independent Of
the audit Of Montgomery county's
account with the Maryland State
Roads Commission which was
authorized by the board of county
commissioners last week, to ascer-
tain the amount of the overdraft
in this account which the State
claims is $227,000.
The executive and advisory
committees of the chamber of
commerce, both of which have
sanctioned the investigation, pre-
dicted today that it will reveal
that the county pays considera-
bly, more to the State gasoline
tax than is returned. The allo-
cation of this fund is made to
the counties on the basis of lat
eral highway mileage as reported
in 1910.
The executive and advisory
committees will recommend at
the next meeting of the chamber,
scheduled for September %, that
town officials take legal steps to
compel removal of the tracks
and rolling stock of the now
abandoned Kensin gton-Sandy
Spring electric railway.

COLLEGE PARK, Md, Sept. IA.
An approximate increase of Is
per cent in freshman enrolment
was indicated at the opening of
registration at the University of
Maryland this morning. According
to Miss Alma P-einkert, registrar
of the university, 200 of the 1000
applications received from high

with the executive council over
the suppressed minutes of the
June council meeting at which his
resignation was decided upon.
Mr.. Babcock, who says the council
has publicly intimated largely I'M
truthful smirkS about my admin
iStration," said today he will
blast their neads off" if the
council attacks him in any man
ner during the convention.
At the same time, it was learned
that the council in secret session
decided to bare all details of the
June meeting, many of which
were suppressed, and bitter fight
on the floor is believed inevitable.
Although not officially admitted,
it was also learned that the coun-
Gil has decided to again suspend
the Department of Justice Lodge,
after hearing its defense against
the charges preferred against it.
This, it is expected, will mean a
furious clash between New Deal
factions and Civil Service dele
gates.
