conservation measures and the Gre
alton of an incentive to conserve
water in the Federal and District
buildings, equivalent to that which
automatically exists elsewhere when
water Is paid for in proportion to
the amount used" Mr.. Weed de-
clared.
U. S. Payment Considered.
Senator Austin, Republican, Of
Vermont inquired if this last recon-
mendation implied having the Gov
eminent buildings pay for water to
induce economy.
Senator McCarron said this is
merely a preliminary report, and
that the question of financial equity
between the Federal and District
Governments is one Of the matters
to be given further study.
= Senator Tydings, Democrat, OF
Maryland drew from the figures IN
the report an inference that the
Federal Government uses about
one-fourth of the water consumed
annually, or about S500,000 worth.
He said he was wondering what part
of the Federal payment toward gen.
eral expenses of the District could
be charged to water use. The COM
mittee, which was waiting to con-
slider another bill, did not pursue
this question further today.
e At present and for many years,
no part of the Federal payment has
gone toward the water system, be-
cause the water system is financed
through a separate Treasury fund,
and all expenses are met out of rates
paid by private users.

October Oil
Production
3y the Associated Press.


Petroleum Co-ordinator Harold L.
Ickes recommended today that daily
production of petroleum be 4,066, 200
barrels during october.
This represents decrease Of $500
barrels daily under September and
almost 100000 less than actual daily
production year ago.
Ickes said the decrease in Oc-
tober was due, in part, to an an
ticipated drop in gasoline demand
resulting from the rubber conserva-
tion campaign.
The recommended production rate
in Texas for October totals l 1,407 800
barrels daily, an increase of $500
barrels over September.
CALIFORNIA; production was fixed
at 1872 900 barrels daily, compared
with 1883 for September: Illinois
280,0 900, compared with 289,200 for
September.
Ickes said the Illinois decrease
was due to the inability of those

Pay Bill

policy is adopted for wage earners
! generally, and that the pending
overtime bill should be considered
entirely on it's own merits
Mr.. Steward emphasized that the
pending legislation is a step toward
/ uniformity in paying overtime.
A similar view was taken by Le-
land M. Walker of the Rural Mail
Carriers.
In urging passage of the bill Civil
Service Commissioner Flemming
said the Government is employing
approximately 2,500,000 workers and
that PTS, 900 of these-58 per cent
get overtime for hours in excess OF
their basic work period, while the
rest do not. This, he continued,
directly contravenes the principles
of the Federal Wage-Hour Act.
Inequities Cited.
Citing some of the inequities that
have crept into this system, he said
that lawyer in the Navy Depart
ment receiving $500 annually re-
ceived overtime, but it was denied
to his secretary.
The War Department, he contin-
ued, could not pay overtime in the
departmental service generally but
could pay it to some field workers.
"This situation has bad effect
on morale" he continued.
= William II. Kusnick, director OF
civilian personnel OF the War De-
partment, also urged approval of
the legislation. saying in response to
a question that turnover among the
lower bracket employees was run
ming from 10 to 80 per cent.
The present bill was drafted as
q compromise after the administra-
ton bill, providing generally for
time e-and-one-half overtime to
white collar" employees to Offset
rising living costs, drew objections
from organized postal workers who
would not benefit by it. Lengthy
hearings were held on the first bill
by the House Civil Service Com
mittee several months ago.
Ceiling Basis Different.
The original bill proposed to limit
the amount a worker could draw in
straight time and overtime to $1,000.
The new measure takes of this CELL
ing, but provides that no overtime
shall be paid on any portion of an
employees basic rate of compensa-
ton IN excess of $4,000.
Postal workers, who are on 40
hour week, would be assured four
hours overtime under this measure.
They now draw straight time for
overtime, while the new measure
would give them time and one half.
Postal unions have argued that A
hour week is not necessary in the
postal service. The bonus rate for
those not receiving overtime would
be 10 per cent of their basic COM
pensation,

An-Night Parking Ban
Opposed by Traffic
Advisory Council
Plan Merely Would Add
To Motorists Expense,
OPA Chief Leory Says

The Traffic Advisory Council was
on record today as opposing the Dis
trict Commissioners proposal to
eliminate all-night parking on
Washington streets.
Strong opposition to the plan was
voiced at a meeting of the council
last night by Fire Chief Stephen T.
Porter, District OPA Director Whit
ney Leary and George Keneipp,
chairman of the councils Regula-
tions Committee.
"It would merely be an added ex-
pense and would amount almost to
confiscation Of automobiles" de-
clared Mr. Leary, who is chairman
of the council. He said it would be
unfair to discriminate against mo-
torists. The plan contemplates grad
ual enforcement by areas, beginning
downtown.
Mr.. Keneipp, head of the Wash
ington keystone Automobile Club,
submitted a joint report of his COM
mittee and the Parking Committee,
which stated that the Commission
ers' plan would not be advisable
during wartime.
Chief Porter, taking similar
stand, SAID the Fire Department
would prefer cars be left on streets
in the event of an air raid or large
scale fires rather than on vacant
lots or in backyards, where they
might hamper rescue operations.
Mr.. Keneipp said the Parking
Committee favors eventual" ban
ming of all-night street parking, but
opposed adoption of the plan at this
time.
The Council voted down proposal
of Police Inspector Milton D. Smith
to raise the speed limit of police and
fire cars and ambulances on the
grounds the measure might be
abused and lead to more traffic
accidents.
