LEAVE BILL HACKERS
REPLY TO M'KELLAR
Federal Employees Local Main
tains Measures Do Not Unduly
Favor Navy Field Workers.

In a letter to Senator McKellar,
Democrat, of Tennessee, who blocked
the leave bill at the last session of
Congress, Local 26O of the National
Federation of Federal Employees has
replied to McKellar's criticism that
the bills, as drafted, would unduly
favor Navy Department field workers,
who are on flve-day week.
The letter, made public yesterday,
points out that $4,000 of these EN-.
ployes, though on the five-day week,
work 40 hours-one less than does the
Navy departmental force. About $4,000
get no sick leave, it is added.
The bill would raise annual leave
from Is to 80 days, and would cut
sick leave from 80 to Is days, but make
it cumulative.
At the time McKellar made his
objection to the bill, he presented a
statement from the department pro-
posing the field employees be excluded
from their operation.
Copies Of the letter to Senator Nc
Kelar have been sent also to Senator
McCarran, Democrat, of Nevada, q
champion Of the measure, and Chair
man Ramspeck of the House Civil
Service Committee, who sponsored
them.

STUDY Of PAROLE
SYSTEM ORDERED
Probation and Sentence
Methods Also to Be Re.
viewed by U. S.

Scrutiny of the Districts parole,
probation and prison sentence systems
will be started soon by the Commis-
sioners in cooperation with Vie JUS
tice Department, it was aGkounced
yesterday after District officials re-
ceived a letter from Attorney General
Cummings asking cooperation in a
national study of these and related
problems.
The Commissioners are expected to
designate this week Representatives of
the District government to cooperate
with the Justice Department in the
local phase of the national investiga-
ton of the questions raised by Cum
mings.
District officials already have con-
siderable data in hand since the parole
system operation was reviewed in the
past year. There were resulting pro-
posals for adoption of full-time paid
Parole Board, for enlargement Of its
staff of parole investigators and for
making the District provisions for re-
lease on parole conform to those of
the Federal Government.
Cummings wrote the Commission
ers:
The importance of parole and its
administration suggests that the time
is opportune for a Nationwide ex-
animation of this problem. vitality re-
lated to the proper administration of
criminal law throughout the country.
Because of the variations existing
among the statutes and practices of
the several States. I am convinced
that such studies include pardon, pro-
baton, communication, suspended SEN
tences and similar subjects.
With these considerations in mind,
the Department of Justice has pro-
cured funds from the Works Progress
Administration for such an investiga-
ton. During the next few weeks, a
staff of trained workers will be sent
into the field to initiate this under
taking. ."
Most of the research will be per-
formed by residents of the respective
States, one of the major purposes be-
ing the employment of considerable
number of those now without work
." I am confident that the facts
thus secured, the comparisons of ex-
perience thus made possible, the in
terchange of information thus facil-
itated, and the varied results shown
to have been obtained through con-
trasting methods and techniques, will
be of benefit to us all in dealing with
the great problems of the prevention
of crime and the treatment of GRIM
inals in our respective jurisdictions.
