CASH SHIFTS WITH employees,
ASLEAVE REBATE, RULED OUT
BY ]. EARLE MOSER

Because of the manner in which
Congress grants appropriations,
Federal agencies cannot reimburse
one another with cash when EN-.
ployes transfer their leave from
one office to another. the Acting
Comptroller General has ruled.
The idea was placed before
General Accounting office by the
War Department, which believes
it to be a fair method of handling
the leave of transferred Govern
ment employees. but G. A. o. was
forced 20 turn it down because OF
existing law. wv
In a letter to G. A. o., War
officials complained that no pro
vision has been made IN the
new leave laws for compromising
agencies which take on employees
via transfer who have already
earned large amounts of leave IN
some other department or Office
They pointed out that worker
receiving $4,000 who had accumu-
lated his maximum Of 60 days
annual and 80 days sick leave, ano
transferred, would burden" his
new office with $50 days leave,
which would amount to about i've
months at $500 per month, or
$500 in all.
They suggested shifting an ap,,
propriate amount for leave IN al
transfers to the workers new
locale. but G. A. o. replied thai
such an action must be construed
as unauthorized" under the law
In another decision, G. A: o.
has held that per diem workers
at the Navy Yard here are en-
titled only to one days pay 1or
working on Inauguration Day.
January 30, and shall not receive
one DAYS "gratuity pay" in ad-
dition-even though other Fed
eral and D. C. workers received the
day off with compensation. The
decision was based on wording o!
Congress public resolution OF
March %.

While it's little early, still it might
do no harm to perambulate around a

they'd cast a ballot in my direction,
whether it hit the box or not.
Iwant to thank you, also, for offer

MADISON, Wis. January 14.-Pro-
gressive control of both Wisconsin
legislative houses apparently fore
stalled today a threatened investi-
cation OF DR.. Glenn Franks dismissal
from the University of Wisconsin
presidency.
Gov. Philip F. La Follette's party,
aided by six Democrats and Repub-
lican, gained the speakership Of the
Assembly yesterday. the presidency
pro TEN OF the Senate and named its
own Committee on Committees, which
controls committee assignments.
Opponents of Gov. La Toilette had
prepared to ask an investigation of
the Frank case and proposed taking
from him the power to appoint uni
versity regents. But they intimated
1t would be useless to press such de-
mands in the face of the Progressive
dominated Assembly organization.
A bloc of La Follette-appointed re-
gents voted to remove Frank last
week.
Political opponents of the Progress
sives indicated, however, that they
would review the Frank case when
the university budget comes up for
consideration.
A vote of so to 40 gave Paul Alfonsi
Of Pence the speakership and Senator
Walter j. Rush of Neillsville won the
post of president pro tenn of the Sem
ate, II to Is.
Lacking only few votes of a ma
Jority in each house, the Progressives
won the support of Democrat and
Republican in the Senate and five
Democrats in the lower House.
The Progressives have Is Votes in

Republicans 3. In the Assembly the
