Union Offer Of Building Gift
AGAINST Army's Policy

Commenting on an offer of the
United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners to donate to Fort
Meade recreation building. War
Department spokesman said it was
general policy of the department
not to accept such gifts for Army
reservations.
I'VE would be embarrassed some
day and have to draw the line" he
said. so the only thing to do is
to draw it at the beginning"
William L. Hutchinson, general
president of the Carpenters Union,
said yesterday in Indianapolis that
Secretary Stimson had turned down
a union offer to build free of charge
at Fort Meade, $4,000 worth of
recreational facilities, the Associated

Mr.. Hutchinson said Local 101 Of

Conservation Agents to
Meet August 26

Under call of Chairman Lester A.
Helfrich, jr., special agents in Mary
land of the National Committee for
the Conservation of Man Power in
Defense Industries will meet in Bal
timore August 26 to discuss plans
for reducing the accident toll in the
war industries in the State, it was
announced today.
Secretary of Labor Perkins ap-
pointed the national committee last
year. Special agents of the COM
mittee, most of them dollar-a-year
men, have been carrying on a cam
paign throughout the country to
obtain the cooperation of employ
ers and workers in a safety pro-
gram. Congress recently appro-
priated 100000 to enable the Labor
Department to employ a group of
full-time safety engineers and train
selected industrial workers in the
technique of accident prevention.
The departments defense safety
drive is being carried on through
the Division of Labor Standards,
headed by Verne A. thinner. So far.
18 tull-time safety engineers have
been appointed and 10 more will be
employed by the division in the
near future.
Walter u. Gaudet recently was
appointed as a full-time safety en-
gineer to help defense industries
in Virginia in accident-prevention
work. A safety expert soon will be
appointed for Maryland.
The Division Of Labor Standards
a few days ago sent out a ques-
tionnaire to State accident boards
and commissions throughout the
country, asking for accident fig
ures for the first six months of 1941,
as compared with those for the cor
responding period last year. Where
possible, they were also asked to
submit comparative figures on the
man hours worked during the two
periods.
Early returns show a substantial
increase in the number of indus
trial accidents this year. Labor De.
partment officials revealed today.

Not Made Public

Numerous recommendations for
improvement of the efficiency of the
Metropolitan Police Department
we're contained in a report filed with
the Commissioners today by the
special committee of District Off
cials headed by Maj. Beverly c.
Snow.
The entire report was withheld
from publication at the direction
of Brig. Gen. Charles w. Kutz, En-
gineer Commissioner, who was the
only city mead at the District Build
ing when the report was submitted
Commissioner Young is on vacation
and Commission Mason was not at
his Office.
Gen. Kutz said he felt no action
of any kind should be taken until
the report has been read by all three
members of the Board of Commits
sioners.
He said it had not been decided
whether the committees report
would be made public before action
on it was taken by the city heads,
and suggested the report probably
would not be published at least
until next week.
The report was signed by Maj.
Snow and Maj. James R. Lusby,
District diSbursing officer. The
third member of the committee Is
Walter L. Fowler, District budget
director. He has been on vacation
in New York State, but has notified
District officials he expects to re-
turn here tomorrow or Thursday.
The report was drafted by the
other two committee members some
what earlier than had been antici-
pated as a result of request from
the Commissioners to complete the
work as fast as possible. 1t was
said that If Mr.. Fowler has any ad-
ditional suggestions, or differs from
the other members on any points,
he likely would write supplement.
He sat in on most of the interviews
and studies conducted by the group
before he went on vacation.

Short-Wave Stations 10 Gel
Multiple Frequencies

The Federal Communications Com
mission today authorized American
international stations to use more
than one frequency.
The commission announced that
it has changed its rules to. permit
greater flexibility in the choice of
operating frequencies because limita-
ton to a single frequency many
times has prevented the broadcasts
from getting to their intended
destinations due to man-made and
atmospheric interference.
The commission added that at
the present time the expansion of
international broadcast facilities in
other countries has resulted in con-
siderable and increased interference
to the transmissions of United States
stations engaged in international
broadcasting.
