The McCarran Paw Bill.

The Budget Bureau Is reasonable in
Its proposal that action on Senator
McCarran's bill, establishing $500 as
the minimum pay for full-time Federal
employment and providing for other in
creases in the lower grades, be delayed
until completion Of the Budget Bureaus

delayed action does not, or should not.

on his measure which Senator McCarran
Is seeking and which should be granted
The first news Of the Budget Bureaus
Independent study developed last week
in Mr.. Bells letter to Chairman Bulow
of the Senate Civil Service Committee,
commenting on the McCarran measure.
The scope OF the study will not be known
until the President transmits the results
to Congress. But 1t is manifest that
there need be no conflict between Sena-
tor Mecarran's general proposals and
the Budget Bureau study. One COM
plements the other. Hearings now on

able information for the Budget Bureau
and would place Senator McCarran in
a better position to amend his bill to
include suggestions resulting from the
Budget Bureau study.
Senator McCarran was prompted to
introduce his measure early in the ses-
sion by the Presidents recommendations
for more adequate pay in the higher
salaried groups OF Government employ
ment. The time, he felt, was ripe to
take care of the lower brackets. He
prepared and introduced his bill in time
for careful study and consideration IN
House and Senate before the congestion
which always accumulates toward the
end of session. No expressed opposi-
tion has developed. On the other hand,
Senators have pointed out that the
Government should accompany its fire.
quent expressions in favor of minimum

example.
Hearings on Senator McCarran's meas

Pedestrian Difficulties
In Two NeighbOrhOOds

TO the Editor Of The Star:
Why is it that the trafic officials keep
setting traps for the pedestrians? Have
they q grudge against all because few
JayWalk on account Of unreaSonably slow
signals?
At First and T streets northwest there
has been for years post with red and
green lights for east and west traftc, but
none for northbound. EaStbound pedeS-
trians are given a green light and then
endangered by northbound vehicles
crossing in front or on them. There
used to be stop sign south Of T street
which gave q few seconds Of grace in
which to cross on ones traffic rights"
but that was removed in favor Of light
post beyond the second intersecting
street. Some motorists know this and
others do not. After few hairbreadth
escapes the pedestrian also knows, but 1t
does him little good, as mostly he is not
a mind-reader, especially of motorists.
A do not block T street" sign means
little to motorists, who generally see it
after starting across the street. The
signal df any) for westbound traffic on
T street is nearly block away and little
needed by right-hand turner's. So much
for this location.
A new outfit was lately installed at
nue. with complete lights for east, west
and southbound pedestrian only traf-
fic, but none for northbound Except
the left only" on the post for east
bound trafflc). Pedestrians have to twist
their necks to see the eastbound signals
and deduce therefrom what theirs would
be under more satisfactory conditions.
Not having eyes in the back Of their
heads, they are frequently caught half
way to the safety zone by heavy trafic
which is insiStent on getting there" in
a hurry.
Why lights for pedestrians northbound
are not put on the westbound post,
similar to the lights for southbound
pedestrians on the eastbound post, can
only be explained on the ground of in
difference to pedestrians safety.
Why is it also that the traffic police
are so anxious to expedite the buSseS
at the above intersection that they must
wave bus just unloaded to go ahead
against the red light, even when pedes-
trians are crossing in front OF it? Around
the corner from the above the street
cars dump their loads near to Nineteenth
street in the face of heavy, fast-moving
traffic, training thousand persons to
jaywalk. The excuse for not having
proper stops" at Eighteenth and Nine
teenth streets is that it takes less time
to unload all at once. So Navy employees
have to walk square on a poor pave
ment where water flows across from a
parking block in rainy weather and
vehicles cross at any point. Meanwhile
the car waits up to five minutes. So
much for economy in time" as used by
the transit company and Endorsed by
the Utilities Commission.

Supreme Court Last Hope
OF American Democracy
To the Editor of The star;


In my humble capacity as a citizen of
this good United States of America of
ours I am moved to state the free
people Of America are about to lose
the only branch Of government that
affords them protection under the Con-
stitution, and that is the Supreme Court.
II this Is done, all can say is. God help
us, we will be at the mercy of one-man
power, and that is the executive branch
Of government-the President.
Every one knows that there is no
longer any such thing as q balance of
power. Our Congress is known as
rubber stamp for the President, and If
we allow the Supreme Court also to
pass into his hands. then we can no
longer boast of a Government of the
people, for the people and by the people
but o Government by Roosevelt, one
which makes Hitler and Mussolini look
like pikers in the eyes of the world. If
our President had expressed himself in
respect to this move in reference to the
Supreme Court, or had made it an is
sue in the New Deal platform, I doubt
very much If he could have won the
confidence of the voters last election.
The same would also apply to the new
members Of Congress
In conclusion, I suggest that the voters
of the country should express themselves
by writing their Congressman to try
and save the only means left to us for
protection under the Constitution.
God save the Supreme Court and the
honorable and just gentlemen of the
present Supreme Court

Edward in Exile.

It may be only coincidence that the
Duke OF Windsors reported intention to
exile himself from England for at least
three years synchronizes with current
discussion regarding his future income.
The visit of the former Kings sister,
Princess Mary, to Castle EnZeSfeld is
supposed to have been concerned with
the royal family's desire to settle Ed
wards financial status on basis COM
mensurate alike with his own dignity
and that of the dynasty of which he
remains scion, despite abdication.
The princess royal left Austria, the
Associated Press reports, with detailed
news of her brothers plans. These in
clude his intention to marry Mrs. Simp-
son after her divorce becomes absolute.
Opinion had prevailed that the Duke
might return to Windsor in June to
attend the meeting of the knights OF
the Garter, or later, to take his seat in
the House of Lords. Princess Mary is
UdSh "OIo W ALCA 41AOt1ICA 0A4A
brothers that Edward is determined not
even to think about setting foot again
on native heath before 1910, if then.
His reputed decision accords with the
plaintive hint in his memorable broad
cast on the day of abdication. He is
apparently resigned to drink to the dregs
from the cup which self -banishment
has lifted to his lips, content to find
solace for separation from kin and
homeland in the companionship of "the
woman love-"
To what degree, II any, the Duke is
actuated by disagreement over money
matters remains, of course, his own
secret. When he renounced the throne
he automatically detached himself from
the civil list, which grants the royal
household an income of s2,1O0,oOO. BY
that act he acknowledged dependence
upon the generosity of his family,
though 1t was expected that Parliament
eventually would make special provision
for him. Laborite M. P.'s. who were
stanch adherents of Edward VIII, last
week vigorously objected to a public
grant for the Duke of Windsor. They
argued that he should be supported out
of the fortune of his brother. George VI.
Edward is no longer King Emperor,
but he can hardly, even in exile, be
treated as private individual, with no
sort of claim on British consideration.
He is still his royal highness. Prince
Edward, Duke Of Windsor" AS a royal
duke, he outrankS his late arch-critics,
the Archbishops of Canterbury and
York, as well as the lord chancellor and
the prime minister. He is an admiral
of the fleet, field marshal in the army,
marshal of the air force and a multiple
colonel in chief. AS Prince of Wales and
King, Edward possessed considerable
landed property. but a question arises
as to whether he may still claim owner
ship and income rights. Until the royal
exile is formally stripped of his titles,
honors and proprietary interests, it is
not to be expected that Britain. in self
respect, will consent to see her recently
beloved sovereign reduced TO an i'm
pecunious remittance man.

Barbarism and Cruelty
In the Guise of Sport

To the Editor Of The Star:
You have q column in your paper en-
titled I'm the Hunt Country" which
tells of the petty triumphs of the fox
hunters.
The other day it related how a fox
cornered in a hollow tree was finally
forced out into the midst of the pack
and torn to pieces.
In the seventeenth century the Japa-
nese had a game called 'Inu-o-mono, 4"
or dog-chasing game, in which dogs
were chased and killed by horsemen
with bows and arrows. The dogs could
not escape because the game was held
in an inclosed arena. This game, of
course. is not now played in Japan be-
cause it is too barbarous.
However. in our own Virginia, crowds Of
people and packs Of dogs set upon q
lone fox and run him to earth and tear
him to pieces. 1t comes under the head
ing of sport.
I, for one, think that it is an example
of blood lust and that all the fashionable
trappings with which it is done does not
disguise its brutality.
Fox hunters must take their place
with the bullfghters of Spain and the
head hunters Of the Southern Pacific.
The desire to kill remains the same,
whether the victim be fox. bull or a
man. JOHN ELIOT.
