Dr.. George Boyd Dies;
Retired Pharmacist

DR.. George w. F. Boyd, 40, retired
pharmacist, of III Twelfth street
NE, died in Providence Hospital
yesterday afternoon following a long
illness
A native of Washington, DR.. Boyd
attended st. Johns College and was
graduated from George Washington
University. He operated the Hy-
giene Pharmacy at Second street
and Massachusetts, avenue NV. for
several years and prior to retirement
because of i'll health operated Boyd's
Pharmacy at Second street and
Maryland avenue NE.
DR.. Boyd was interested in civic
affairs and sponsored a proposal for
development of state buildings on
East Capitol street. He was presi-
dent of the National States Per-
petual Foundation, an organization
formed to promote the idea.
He is survived by his widow, Mrs.
Mary Pearl Boyd; his mother, Mrs.
Clara R. Boyd; two sons, George
Frederick and William Dunbar
Boyd, all Of Washington; two sis
ters, Mrs. John A. Browning, Wash
ington, Va, and Mrs. Alfred O..
Knapp, Tampa, Fla, and two BROTH
ers, Frank Of Washington and Albert
Boyd of Tampa, Fla.
Evening star., 1940-01-14

during the coming fiscal year. u
may be reduced considerably below
that figure.
Total Cut About $500. r
AS result Of periodic furloughing
since early fail, the stan numbered
1907 employees in Washington and !
1854 in the field on January 30. In.
cluding the 1,15o that are going out
on February /, the total reduction
in personnel will be approximately
$500, or more than so per cent.
The only thing that can halt the
ebbing tide is for Congress to au.
thorize another public works pro-
gram. Responsible officials admit
that is unlikely to occur. Otherwise
the need for large P. w. A. force
is lacking. Most of the projects
now under construction will be COM
pleted by June 30 next, the dead
line set by Congress. After that the
agency will maintain only enough
employees to wind up its affairs.
Secretary Ickes, who formerly
neaded the agency, had long con-
tended FOR a permanent p. w. A.
staff, a mere nucleus of planners,
who could be called on in time Of
emergency. The idea was to keep
on paper a program of public works
that could be put under immediate
construction to stimulate the heavy
industries in the event of future de-
pressions. Friends of the agency in
Congress are expected to seek ap-
proval of this plan during the pres
ent session rather than see the p.
w. A. fold up entirely.

Two U. 5. Agencies
70 Furlough TAO
In Two Weeks
Number to Be Released
Here Held Fewer
Thon Anticipated

About 400 employees in the WASH
ington office of the Public Works
Administration ana $40 II the United
States Housing Authority here will
receive two-weeks' notice of fur
loughs with their pay checks to-
morrow. Officials explained yester-
day the number in each agency was
"a little less than anticipated"
The field force of the Housing
Authority Is practically unaffected
but approximately 750 P. w. A. field
employees also are to be notified of
their dismissals tomorrow. The to-
tai for the p. w. A. is therefore
around 1,150, the largest number of
furloughs at any one time since last
September.
The P. w. A., which had 10,400
persons on its rolls before the cuts
began, is preparing to maintain only
skeleton force after June 80. I'm
less its life Is continued by Congress,
the huge emergency spending lend
ing agency will pass out of existence
on June 80, 1941.
Major Dismissals Denied.
Several weeks ago, the U. S. H.
A. anticipated the furloughing of
nearly 500 employees in order to bal
ance its books by June 30. Since
then unconfirmed rumors said that
about one third of the 1,4OO en-
ployes on the housing rolls were
slated for furloughs. That is not
now the case and never has been,
officials said. So far as could be
learned, the $40 housing employees
now awaiting furlough on February
l, will just about complete the dis
missals for the remainder of the
fiscal year. Additional severances
may be necessary to balance the
books, it was said. but it was not
believed the number would be large.
The Housing Authority Jared we'll
in the 194l budget estimates for ad-
ministrative expenses. 1t received
slightly more and it is possible some
OF those being furloughed now may
be rehired after June 30.
The budget situation for the P.
w. A., however, is different. That
agency was allowed only $3.50, 900
for administrative expenses-one-
nth OF the amount it has been get
ting along on during the current
year. Actually the P. w. A. was
given a s2o,oo0,0o0 appropriation for
salaries, but 100000 of the amount
had to meet unpaid obligations left
over from the previous year.
The new budget estimate means
that the force will have to be held
down to probably $500 employees

Will Greece's Fate
BE That If Finland?

,struggle in the deep SHOWS OF the
Finnish border; the Italians ap'
near to have believed that they
could overrum Greece with 2oo'oot
hastily prepared ettectives' ane
with tanks that split their iror
sides against the crags OF Eplru'
and the Pindus.
Neither invader expected vail
ant. skillful resistance from hardy
troops who knew the ground ane
thrived on the difficult conditions
the Finnish ski troops, on the one
hand; the tough mountain infan
trymen and gunners OF Greece, OF
the other.
Here, however, are the differ
iences:
Soviet Russia entered upon he1
Finnish adventure without any 9th
er preoccupation. She had made
her arrangement with Germany
she knew that Britain and France
would hesitate a long time before
they came to Finland's aid (the.
had no treaty obligations to Fin
land), and she counted on the neu
trality of Sweden and Norway Il
keep the Western allies at a dis
lance, even if they did decide tt
60 into Finland.
How we'll the Russians calcu
lated is a matter of history. By
the time the French had organized
an expeditionary force of $1,000
men and had prevailed upon thu
fumbling Chamberlain government
to seek passage for them through
the neutral Scandinavian states
the time had come when they coule
have done no good and Sweder
and Norway were well aware o:
that fact. They refused, fatty.
