BRINGS LAUGH
RUSSIAN RADIO OWNERS
LISTEN I'm ON SOVIET
GOVERNMENT
lIIr AssoeIated pressl

MOSCOW, March 29.-Radic
owners in the Soviet Union enjoy
a little game of 'eavesdropping on
the government which often is
amusing and instructive.
The Soviets have let the radio
telephone get far ahead of the
telephone or telegraph to far
flung outposts. So the public now
listens in on official communica-
tons the. same way American ra-
dio fans hear police calls.
Sometimes the air grows blue
with the conversation hurled back
and forth over thousands of Arc
tic miles, as Moscow wants to
know why in the "blank blank"
Igarka doesn't have a new saw
mill running, and Igarka responds
the "blank- blank" reason is that
the port froze up before the ship
bringing necessary machinery
from Leningrad arrived.

ACTION
URGED
Ramspeck, Steward
AssaiI Situation
as outrageous

Representative Robert RamSpeck
CD of Georgia, chairman of the
House Civil Service Commission
today advocated that Government
employees be given either com
pensatory time off for overtime OF
be paid for their extra hours OF
work.
This was his reaction to the re
port submitted yesterday by the
Civil Service Commission showing
that during the last half of last
year Uncle Sans workers put in
IA million hours of overtime for
which they were given neither time
off nor extra pay. The Georgian
said:
"That report justifies the pro-
vision which the House wrote
into the Government empIOye
leave bill last year, but which
was stricken out by the Senate.
In the leave bills as they passed
the House we provided that COM
penSatOry time off be given for
overtime.
KILLED BY SENATE
"The Senate eliminated this
provision and substituted in.
stead the request for a report
on overtime from the Civil Ser
vice Commission.
II think it is plainly evident
now that the House was right,
and l think there will be legisIa-
tiOn providing time off for over
time in the agencies where that
can be done and extra pay for
overtime in the other agencies"
While Mr.. Ramspeck does not
intend Immediately to take any
action in this direction, he said as
soon as his committee finishes
consideration of other measures on
its program he will give his atten.
tion to this problem.
Immediate legislative action to
put a stop to overtime employ
ment in Government service will
be sought by the National Fed

President Roosevelt used his
emergency powers to permit free
importation of supplies for the
million flood sufferers from fol.

$10,000,000 was set, passed SILL
