Federal Workers Asked
For answering Loyalty

The Executive Council of the
American Federation of Government
Employees yesterday called on Fed
eral workers generally for "unswerv-
ing loyalty and devotion to duty"
in the light of the world crisis.
Recalling allegations that there
may be members of subversive
groups in the service, the council
adopted resolution pledging loyalty
to the Government and urging Its
membership and all other Govern
ment employees so to conduct them
selves as to reflect only the highest
standards of citizenship and service
to our country and to bring to the
attention of proper authorities any
and all subversive activities on the
part of Government employees or
prospective Government employees"
The council is holding its spring
meeting at the Hamilton Hotel. The
A. F. G.. E. is an affiliate of the

D. {. Defense Council
Praised by Young for
It's Preliminary Work
Skeleton Plans Drown;
Asbestos Suits to Fight
Bomb Fires Weighed

Praise for the preliminary work of
the District Defense Council in set
ting UP framework for meeting any
emergency that might arise was
voiced yesterday by Commissioner
John Russell Young.
i wish to say that I think the
District officials and civilians on
these committees of our Defense
Council have done a splendid job, -
he said, even though so far most
OF the work is to plan for emergen-
cies that might arise. Plans for
recreation for service men and Sc
lecteeS and defense workers and the
listing of available housing are in
progress now. think we should be
ready for whatever emergency may
arise
Capt. H. c. Whitehurst. director
OF highways, who is serving as ex-
ecutlve officer to the council, which
is headed by the three Commission
ers, said he had received some prog
reSs reports from various commit
tees, that good progress had been
made so far, but that he thought
tentative plans being drawn should
not be used to alarm" the public.
He had reference to suggestions
that the Civil Protection Commit
tee, headed by Police Supt. E. w.
Brown, is considering" provision of
asbestos suits for men who might
have to fight fires started by enemy
bombers and withstand gas attacks.
1T should be remembered" said
Capt. Whitehurst, that we are con-
slderlng ultimate possibilities and
that these tentative plans and sug-
gestlons still are skeleton plans and
conceived on that basis.

$4,000 Lacking
Auto Tags as
.Dead|ine Nears
Van Duzer Announces
Doors Will Close at
d PM. Tomorrow

Traffic Department officials are
prepared for the usual last-minute
struggle tomorrow as thousands of
procrastinators seek to get the 1912
fiscal year automobile tags before
the deadline is reached at the close
of business today. Traffic Director
William A. Van Duzer said last
night, however. he planned to close
the doors of his office at pm. to-
morrow.
According to the best available
figures Yesterday, it appeared there
may be as many as 1900 reque~ts
for tags tomorrow, and the Traffic
Department is not equipped to issue
that many tags in one day. Mr. Van
Duzer said he had no idea the Mon
day demand would be anywhere near
as high as 1900. Each year some
persons leave their cars in garages
on new tag day" and get their IL
cenSeS later.
Bad Checks Received.
Meanwhile, Tax Collector Guy w.
Pearson, revealed that several
hundred" bad check payments for
tags had been received. practically
all of these being returned because
of insufficient funds" at the banks.
Mr.. Pearson said he already had
started an investigation of these
bad check" cases and would con-
tinue his study after tomorrow
deadline on tags. He remarked that
the several hundred" bad checks
that had bounced back to his desk
by yesterday was said by old hands
in his Office to be an unusually large
number, hence his investigation
Mr.. Pearson also took the oppor-
tunity to renew warning. already
sounded by Tax Assessor Edward A.
Dent. that tomorrow is the deadline
for payment of the second half pay
ments on the 194l fiscal year real
estate and personal property tax
bills
He said he did not have any final
figures, at the time, on payments of
these taxes. but from other sources
it was indicated many taxpayers
will be faced with penalty assess
ments of an additional | per cent
per month on these bills, unless all
come under the wire tomorrow.
The tax collectors Office will remain
open half hour or so overtime
tomorrow, the customary closing
hour being 3 pm, for cash pay
