The International Labor Office an
nounces that considerable progress
has been made in the investigation of
discrimination against elderly work
ers, recently authorized by the |. L. 0.
governing body at its meeting in Ge
neva, Switzerland. The results of the
inquiry will be presented to the gov
erning body at its meeting in London
next October
The study was requested by Robert
j. Watt, United States workers rep
resentative on the governing body.
Mr.. Watt was supported in his request
by Robert Goodrich, u. S. govern
ment representative, and Henry |.
Hartman, u. S. employers represen-
tative
Mr.. Goodrich told the governing
body that the United States govern
ment has "very strong" interest in
this question. Mr.. Hartman said that
employers in the United States were
the problem of the middle-aged work
man."
1--WE wish to see it solved" he
declared, mot only on humanitarian
grounds, but also on the grounds that
otherwise it is going to place an un
supportable burden on the govern
ment or some of its agencies in sup
porting these people.

many times, and | would say that
the great mass of manufacturers
agree that careful analysis of the
situation frequently shows that the
workman between As and 55, if rightly
placed, is a much more valuable asset
than younger man, and that he has

ice not only for himself but for the

that the American Federation of La
Dor had Joined with organizations and
public bodies of all kinds in requesting
the United States department of la
Dor to study the question.
'"Some of the questions we want to
ask" he explained, "and for which we
have no answers, are:
What do modern industrial pro-
cesses require young and vigorous
persons capable of high speed prod

ssDo new industrial processes re-

"Do improved insurance or retire

"Has the older worker such family

MURRAY LEVINE
 HEARS NOTHING

New Rochelle, N. Y, March 1O.- (UP)-Murray Levine received ex- tension of freedom from police in- reference today in his attempts tc negotiate for the return of his 12- year old son. Peter. kidnapped two weeks ago from $30,000 ransom.
 The decision to extend the police hands-off policy was made at a conference of Director of Public Safety Philip s. Tilden with City Manager Irving c. Brewer, Mayor Harry Scott, Police Chief Frank L. Birmingham and Detective Lieuten- ant George Reifenberger.
 The conference was called after several Westchester county officials, tn New Rochelle Parent-Teachers Association and scores of residents had protested the inactivity.
 All efforts to pay the ransom have failed tuus far. In his II D. m., telephone call to newspapermen last night. Levine said in a tired voice
 "All I can say is that there is nothing new"

pected Of all riders, the necessity of complying with traffic rules and reg ulations. Markers would be issued at a nominal fee so that coopera- tion on the part of the youngsters would be more of a matter of pro- cedure than an expensive custom.
 The resolution met with favorable response as the safety committee in presenting its report called attention to the fact that bicycles are figur- ing frequently in accidents and so supervisory regulation may tend to discourage reckless driving and de- crease accidents.
 Incidentally with proper registra- tion data made available the number of stolen bicycles would perhaps ex- perience decline in Connecticut, although the sponsors of the legion's resolution are not particularly in- terested in the possible police angle of the move.
 Waterbury was represented by ten delegates to the legion's meeting, while several women from this city attended the session of the auxiliary units.
 Local Delegates
 Junior Vice. Commander George Karnofsky headed the local unit, which included: Paul Staftrom, John Wall, Major Newton w. Alex ander, Edward St. Martin, Victor Baker, Raymond Walker, comman- der of the posts drum corps; Past Commander Morris Shapiro, Pas quale and Stetve DelNigro.
 In the report of the activities of the local post Vice. Commander Karnofsky stated that the post is on record as favoring 25-mile per hour speed limit for autos in Wa terbury. A formal appeal will be made to the board of aldermen fol- lowing a checkup on present ordi- nance and state regulations. Legion posts throughout the state will en- deavor to have the 25-mile limita- tion made uniform in Connecticut. SO as to prevent any confusion from ensuing.

VICE-PRESIDENT
 ADMITS TO BREAK
Said He Had Differences
 With President Over Some of Policies

Charleston, S. C., April 23-(UP) Tive President John Nance Gar ner was on record today with a virtual confirmation that he has had policy differences with Presi- dent Roosevelt.
 But he coupled tacit admission to this effect with the statement that no man "has a greater admir- ation for him than myself"
 Gamers unexpected remarks at a banquet given by Mayor Burnet R, Maybank to senators and repre- sentatives attending the annual Azaela festival were considered sig nificant not only because it was the first time he publicly referred to his reported difference with the presi- dent over pump priming, but be- cause he previously had extracted a pledge that he would not be called on to speak.
 In. fact Sen. James F. Byrnes, D. s. t%, in introducing Garner, men, tioned that pledge and said he would not speak. But the vice. president, as the audience gave him an ovation, raised his hand for si- lence and then volunteered brief re- marks.

Hollywood, April 23-(UP)-Shir- ley Temple, 8 millionaire on her ninth birthday, was given the day off today so she would have plenty of time to open, her hundreds of presents and to be host at two parties. Shirley will report at 20th Century-Fox studio today, but not for work on her next picture Lucky Penny" On the studio lot she will be host to the children of all Hol- lywood newspapermen. More than 300 invitations were sent out. To- night there will be smaller party at the home of Shirley's parents, MT. and Mrs. George Temple. Only her closest friends will attend.
 Presents for Shirley have been arriving at her studio for days. They came from every state in the Union and from many foreign countries. To hundreds of children about Shirley's age, the birthday of the famous movie star is second in i'm portance only to their own. The great majority of the names of senders are of no significance to Shirley because she does not know them personally. The presents are of particular significance to studio officials. The interest displayed in Shirley's birthday by her admirers means that she still retains the pop ularity that has made her Holly woods leading star.
 At this afternoons party for the children of newspapermen there will be no pictures. no publicity. Studio officials said that that was an annual custom I in accordance
