But if you want to get yourselfS in the correct frame of mind to be appropriately thankful, you should read Therese Bonney's "Europe's Children" You probably know of the terrible plight of the children over here, but it takes these pie lures of youngsters, more like liv- ing skeletons than babies, eating out of garbage cans and sleeping in dltches, their wasted bodies clothed in rags, to make you re- fleet that things are not too bad over here after all. Unless you have no heart, do not try to read it in a railroad station or any where else in public, for the truly shocking photographs will bring tears to your eyes, but 1t should be required reading for the chronic growler.
 So if you can't get a turkey this year, get a copy of "Europe's Chil- dren," and you will sit down to your gristly pot roast with the deep gratitude of one of our Pill grim forefathers, on reflecting that the Indians hadn't caught up with him yet.
 Odds and Ends: Speaking of hungry children, there have been recently, in Noank, a couple of cases of small babies being bitten by a little two-year-o girl, and since both mama and two-year-old are pale, anemic blondes, this may be one of the regrettable results of the meat shortage. The gag of the week was pulled off by Tommy Dalton of the Main Yard at the last Sub party. At the Nor ton House, Tiny Watts band was blasting away at one of their su- per-hot specials, and just at it's best and loudest-someone remarked that Tiny's mother had never heard his orchestra.

Thorough Reyamping
0fU. 5. Wage Scales
Asked After April 80
Admiral Fisher Would
Reeroup Executive Unit
Employees for New Law

Thorough revamping of the Fed
eral pay scales and a regrouping of
executive agency employees for pay
purposes as a basis for a new. law
when the temporary war pay plan
expires April 80 is proposed by Rear
Admiral Charles w. Fisher, director
Of shore establishments for the
Navy Department., who has been the
Navy spokesman in the pay discus
sions of the past few months.
AS a starter, Admiral Fisher would
wipe out existing legislation-eXcept
the basic Classification Act and the
Brookhart Salary Act-affecting pay
and working hours. The next step
would be to class the personnel in
two broad categories-shop and
production employees, including Ia
borers, helpers, mechanics and their
supervisors. and Office, admins
trative and executive employees.
Periodic Adjustment.
Wages of the first class, which are
fixed by wage boards or other au-
thorities, would be adjusted period
ically to conform to comparable
wages in private industry, with due
regard for the public interest" while
the pay of the second class would
continue to be governed by the
Classification and Brookhart Acts,
but with administrative adjustments
permitted.
The salary schedules of the second
class, which are paid on a per
annum basis, Admiral Fisher Gays,
would be translated into hourly
rates, with the employees being paid
for the time they work, just as are
per diem workers.
This is by far the simplest and
fairest arrangement, and would
place practically all employees on
the same footing as to payment for
time worked, holiday pay, calcula-
ton of overtime pay, etc." he ex-
plains. "The resulting simpliflca-
ton OF payroll accounting would
be enormous. This also means
however, that when overtime stops
or working hours are reduced, the
pay checks of these employees would
be reduced correspondence as has
always been the case with per diem
employees"
Present System "Unsound."
Importantly, Admiral Fisher would
have the pay of this second class
reviewed periodically, by admins
trative action, with increases per-
missible if warranted. Decreases
below the basic level could be ef-
fected only by legislation. The
centralized control of pay, the Of
ficer believes, properly could be
vested in the Civil Service Com
mission.
The present system which finds
wages for one group fixed by law
while those of another are open to
periodic revision. he comments. Is
"unsound." In the Navy, he said
it has resulted "in injustices and
widespread dissatisfaction"
An initial revision of salary rates
for per annum employees, Admiral
Fisher SAYS, should be undertaken
before April 30, so adjustments car
be made for those persons who are
underpaid, with due regard given
to the Economic Sterilization Act
He expresses doubt that an in

Citizens Fight Plan 10 Use
Apartment for WAVES

Opposition to the condemnation
proceedings launched by the Navy
to acquire the apartment building
at 1909 G street NV. as a dormitory
for the WAVES was voiced here
yesterday by Joseph H. Deckman
chairman of the Housing and Rent
Control Committee of the Fedora
ton of Citizens Associations.
Mr.. Deckman said he believed the
Navy should have made a more
thorough survey of the field before
deciding to drive 1877 families out
of their dwellings at a time when
the housing shortage in the Capital
is so acute. He suggested the pos
sibility that one or more old man
sions might have been taken over
and remodeled for use by the Navy
auxiliary group.
The possibility that the WAVES
might use one of the new dormi-
tories to be provided in Arlington
also was proposed by Mr.. Deck
man, who pointed out that this
location would be generally more
favorable because of it's proximity
to the Navy Department building
in Arlington.

Union Awaits Audit 10 Fix
Status Of Convicted Agent

By the Associated Press.
Vincent Morreale, general counsel
for the International Hod Carriers
Building and Common Laborers
Union, AFL, said yesterday the
status Of Samuel Nuzzo, business
agent of the Newburgh IN. ~ local
who was convicted of misappropri-
ating union funds, might not be
determined until after an audit by
Joseph Morechi, union president.
Mr.. Morreale said Mr.. Morechi
had been out of town, but added
that If Mr.. Morechi was satisfied"
there was completely in Nuzzo's S
handling of the locals funds, the
president could suspend Nuzzo forth
with.
IF an audit of the books shows
that there was misappropriation of
funds, then proper charges will be
made and Nuzzo will be brought to
trial by the union," Mr.. Morreale
said.
AS for suspending Nuzzo before
the audit, Mr.. Morreale said:
1--WE can't go on rumor. We must
have something more definite than
that. To be sure, the declaration
of guilt in court carries great
weight, but it's question whether
1t would be enough to determine
that Nuzzo had violated the union
bylaws"
Nuzzo was convicted Thursday
on 80 counts Of forgery and grand
larceny at Newburgh for misap-
preparation of Local II funds.

titled at this time.
Would Retain Overtime.
The overtime pay rights just
granted to white collar employees
should be retained, Admiral Fisher
contends, amplifying that the Gov
ernment recognizes this principle
in private employment. and that
there is no valid reason for making
difference in its own service.
Whether overtime starts after eight
hours in one day. or 40 hours in a
week, he says. payment should be
based only on hours actually worked,
and days or hours not worked due
to absence, holidays, leave, ETC." 4"
should not be counted as days
worked.
Under certain conditions now en-
ployes are entitled to the overtime
pay even though they are off duty.
Where pay is allowed for holidays,
he argues, it should be on a
straight basis. Executives and
administrative employees would not
be entitled to overtime.
Admiral Fisher has presented his
views to the Council of Personnel
Administration.

Former Linoleum Salesman.
Pvt. Huber, the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Huber of Bloomington,
gave up selling linoleum to sign up
with the Leathernecks In Chicago a
year ago this month.
Today he described the June
action in q plane with 1t. Tom
Moore of New York. 1t was just
after dawn.
II saw (Japanese) ships every
where, counting about so myself.
I guess there were more. I saw
Jap sailors on a transport all decked
out in whites. I guess they thought
they were going to parade into
Midway with band-but we spoiled
that for them.
Maj. Oofton r. Henderson gave
the order to select targets, peel of
and dive. Zeros were already up,
and the ack-ack was so thick I
didn't see how we could get through
it looked like a wall of fire.
Hardly Noticed Leg Wound.
my gun was in action. Then I
took machine gun bullet in the
leg but hardly noticed it. I saw
my buddy bail out of his flaming
plane. A Zero machine-gunned him
as he drifted down. I saw that.
Then I didn't notice my leg"
He said then 1t. Moore "laid our
eggs" on carrier flight deck Pvt.
Huber's gun strafed the entire
length of the ship-"then we
started back upstairs"
Three Zeros were right on us,
but I got one for sure = Then
I was hit by three more machine
gun bullets-two in the leg again
and once in my hand, and later
I found some shrapnel had hit me,
too-but just small pieces"
After his gun jammed, Pvt. HUI
ber kept swinging it Ito make them
(the zeros) think it was okay, -
till we found cover in the clouds.
