Builders Forecast Drop
In Carpenters Wages

An early agreement for a cut
from $3.50 to 50 a day in the pay
of A. F. of L. carpenters on resi-
dental and apartment house build
ing jobs in the District was FORE
cast today by Frank ]. Sheehan,
secretary and treasurer Of the Mas
ter Builders Association.
Members of the Carpenters Dis
trict Council are considering adop-
ton of.a lower scale comparable to
that now in effect in rs or 80 other
cities" Mr.. Sheehan said, "and
they hope that other trades will
60 along with them"
The labor executive denied that
the move had any connection with
the Nation-w wide inquiry of the De-
partment of Justice into alleged
high costs in all types of construc-
ton. He said the proposal had
been in the mill" for several weeks.
The new wage scales would not
apply to commercial and Federal
building, Mr.. Sheehan said. The
carpenters hope, he added, to stim-
ulate construction in the residential
field by making their contribution
to cost reduction. The men could
afford to take the lower pay II en-
ployment was spread over Q longer
period.

Seal Plan Lists
New Office Of Chief
Medical Examiner
Would SuppIont
Coroner and Seek
Real Causes Of Crime
Star Staff Photos.

Creation of the Office of chief
medical examiner of the District,
which would take over duties now
handled by the coroner and direct
efforts to determine the real causes
of crimes, will be proposed by Cor
poration Counsel Elwood H. Seal in
his draft of a municipal reorganiza-
ton measure.
Mr.. Seal, meanwhile, has COM
pleted the draft of another Sec
ton calling for consolidation of
Police and Municipal Courts, the
general terms Of which were reveal
ed last week. The combined court
would be known as the City Court
Of the District of Columbia"
One of "Best Features"
The corporation counsel said he
regarded the plan for creation OF
the Office of chief medical examiner
as one of the best features of his
tentative draft of the proposed bill
He listed the municipal civil serv-
ice plan and the proposal to permit
the District Commissioners to
formulate their own budget, after
holding public hearings. and to send
it directly to Congress, as other
most desirable elements of his out
line.
There has been informal discus
sion of proposals for abolition of
the coroner's Office for some years.
Some changes in the functions OF the
office were suggested in both the
reorganization proposal of E. o.
Griffenhagen & Associates and in
the bill sponsored at the last session
by Representative Kennedy OF
Maryland.
Outlines Qualifications.
Whether the chief medical ex-
aminer would be the head of an in
dependent Office or placed under the
Police Department, Mr. Seal said he
had not yet determined. The posi-
ton, he said, probably would call
for high salary, probably approach
ing $4,000 year. Under his plan
the position would call for a person
who was trained II. medicine and
who also had working knowledge
of law. Mr.. Seal also said the Off
cial should be skilled in pathology
and trained microscopic.
Under the court revamping plan,
the presiding judge of the City
Court would be selected by the
President. The five judges of Mu-
nicipal Court and the four judges
of Police Court elect their own pre-
siding judges. The judges now are
paid $4,000 year. This would re-
main the same, except that the pre-
siding judge would be given a salary
of $500. He would be responsible
for assignment of the judges to
various units of the court so as to
assure efficient action in all of them.
The terms of the judges would be
for six years. This is the present
term for Police Court judges, but
members of the Municipal Court
bench now are named for terms of
four years.
