president of the UAW. also conferred
with Mr.. Byrnes and Mr.. Davis.
I'VE discussed the glaring injustice
caused by the application of the
Presidents new directive" Mr..
Frankensteen said in statement.
1T is against the accepted American
principle of fair play to rule out
those cases which were pending be-
fore the board, and which in many
Instances, through no fault of the
parties involved, have not been con-
sldered despite months of delay. To
rule those cases out presents a
manifest injustice"
Mr.. Frankensteen said another
matter discussed with Mr.. Byrnes
was Secretary of Labor Perkins in
terpretations of executive orders
dealing with overtime pay.
Her Interpretation actually creates
absenteeism, and results in loss of
vital production" he said. Man
agement is taking advantage of the
Interpretation to work men as much
as IL straight days without overtime
penalties. Employers are calling
men in for work on Saturdays and
giving them a day off during the
week to get around the order"

Control Of Agencies
By Commissioners
Urged al Hearing
Budget Officer Fowler
Would End 'Hodeepodge
Of Independent Units
BY DON S. WARREN.

Suggestions that many, though not
all, of the 26 independent or par
TALLY independent boards and COM
missions supported by municipal
taxes be placed under administra-
tive control of the District Commits
sioners were laid before the House
Appropriations Subcommittee at re-
cent hearings.
District Budget Ofiicer Walter L.
Fowler, in bringing to the commit
tees notice the lack of power of the
city heads over these agencies, said
they have some 5000 employees.
Chairman Mahon remarked that
basic legislation would be needed 10
change the situation and that the
subject would not be considered by
the appropriations committee.
Would Exempt Schools.
Mr.. Fowler was doubtful whether
the Commissioners would want to
be given administrative control over
the schools system and it was agreed
that most cities have separate school
administrations.
Perhaps that is okay," said Mr..
Fowler, but he insisted the long list
of the smaller agencies makes a
hodgepodge" as far as administra-
ton is concerned.
"As to those purely local in char
acter," he continued, such as the
recorder of deeds, there is not any
doubt in my mind that as far as
good administration is concerned,
the District Commissioners should
have administrative control.
But as to another group such as
the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, that is an
organization dealing not only with
the District, but with surrounding
or adjacent territories. They may
be called quasi-Federal organizai-
be called quasi Federal organiza-
tions perhaps we should not have
entire administrative control because
there is a mixture"
Fails to Specify Agencies.
In addition to the technical ex-
amining and licensing boards, the
list of agencies supplied the commit
tee included: Commission on Mental
Health, the District militia, the
lower courts and their probation
systems, the Minimum Wage Board,
National Capital Parks, the Zoo, the
Public Library, public schools, the
Public Utilities Commission, re-
corder of decide, rsgister of wills,
District Recreation Board, the park
police and the Washington Aqueduct.
Mr.. Fowler did not specify just
which was agencies he thought
should come under jurisdiction of
the city heads. Not listed was the
Board of Public Welfare. The Com
missioners already are sponsoring
bill to take over its powers and
to convert it into an advisory
agency,

Businessmen Favor
Trade Agreements,
Dr.. A|faro Declares
Reconstruction Discussed
In Round TubIe at
Brookinqs Institution

American businessmen favor ex-
tension of existing trade agreements
as the best hope of promoting post
war security. DR.. Ricardo j. Alfaro,
former President of Panama, and
Fred Christoph of the United States
Chamber of Commences Foreign
Commerce Department, declared to-
day.
Participating in a round table
discussion on international recon-
struction at the Brookings Insti-
tuition, DR.. Alfaro supported Mr..
Christoph's contention that world
agreements on trade is impossible
and must be by bi-lateral pacts.
DR.. Herbert Wright, professor of
international law at Catholic Uni
versity, and Annis Aver, counselor
of the Egyptian Embassy, contended
favored nations clauses excluded
other nations from trade benefits
and brought about wars.
DR.. Regatz Backs Pacts.
DR.. Lowell j. Regatz, professor of
European history, George WASH
ington University, said Colonial
mandates have proved impractical
and that reciprocal trade agree
ments are the only postwar solu-
tion.
Reminding his colleagues that
problems which have baff1ed the
world for a thousand years cannot
be solved in a few weeks or years,
DR.. Thomas H. Healy, dean of
Georgetown University's School of
Foreign Service, warned that Amer
lea must approach postwar prob
lens realistically.
Wide Interest in Subject.
Presiding at the 2lst general
meeting of the Academy of World
Economics and the annual Wash
ington meeting of the National So
cial Science Honor Society, DR.. Ed
win G. Nourse of the Brookings In
stitution, said the present is a
period when the taxicab driver as
we'll as social scientists have an in
tereSt in world reconstruction.
The round table is being con-
tinued this afternoon.
Tonight at BIS o'clock at George
town University, "Geopolitics and
Peace" will be discussed by DR.. Ed
mund A. Walsh, S. j., vice president
of Georgetown University. Tomor-
row nights general meeting at the
same hour will be held at George

tor Gillette. Democrat. of Iowa and

Hunkin Presses for Funds
TO Provide Peoples S Counsel

Debate over the lack of a peo-
pies counsel before the Public Utili-
ties Commission developed in the
House Appropriations Subcommittee
hearings when Gregory Hankin,
PUG minority member, raised the
issue. The office has been vacant
since 1896, when William A. Roberts
resigned the post.
When Chairman Mahon brought
out that the District Commission
ers had not sought an appropria-
ton for the post. Engineer Commits
sioner Charles w. Kutz said: mo.
We did not; we abide by the known
view of the administration"
Mr.. Hankin had said:
He (the peoples counseD is ap-
pointed by the President by and
with the advice and consent of the
Senate. The only thing we can do is
to ask for an appropriation for it.
The only thing the District Com

Alexandra Students
To Christen Jeeps TODAY

Escorted by the George Washing
ton High School Band, two half
tracks, command car and IL jeeps
will enter the grounds of the Alex
andria High School this afternoon
to be christened by the students of
the school, who earned the privilege
by purchasing $26, 1000 worth of War
bonds during recent drive.
The uniformed cadet corps will
stand at attention while the cere-
mony takes place. and Mayor Will
liam T. wilkins will greet the stu
dent sponsors.
Sally and Barbara Armstrong,
daughters Of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Armstrong Of ITO South Pitt street,
swelled the fund yesterday by pur-
chasing $4,000 worth of bonds.
The student sponsors have been
chosen by q committee OF teachers
and students and will represent the
various classrooms in the school.

then it is up to the President to
appoint him."
Later, Mr.. Hankin added: "Since
1896 we have had no one appointed.
On that there was a difference of
views in our commission. I per-
sonally think that what we must do
is to follow the statute. I cannot
follow a veto message delivered by
Gov. Roosevelt when he was Gov
ernor of New York State on a bill
which provided for a peoples coun-
sci in the New York Public Service
Commission, where the situation
might hav. been entirely different.
Here We have an act of Congress,
passed by Congress and approved by
the President, which provides for
such an Office, and the law must be
followed"
James H. Flanagan, PUG chair
man, said he agreed with the Pres
ident that the (PUC) commission
ers are there to protect the public
as we'll as they are to protect the
company" but he added he was not
taking sides on the issue.

services" will be necessary to keep
the expanded physical education
program in the senior and junior
high schools from going by the
board"
The success of Spanish classes
in the Junior high schools was cited
before the House committee by Asst.
Supt. of Schools Cantrell, but he
has since recommended that they
be eliminated III the eighth grade
to permit expansion of the physical
education program in the junior
high schools.
Spanish is very much on the
upgrade declared Mr.. Cantrell at
that time. Two years ago there was
not single Spanish class in a
junior high school. Today there are
from one to five and perhaps six
Spanish classes in each of the junior
high schools.
Getting teachers is difficult in all
grades and subjects, declared DR..
Ballou. because of the compare
lively low salaries offered. He told

at $3.50 a bag although the ceiling
is $375.
At the OPA office here it was said
all complaints turned in are thor
oughly investigated. and that it
could be assumed that the violations
reported by the fruit and vegetable
league were being given proper
attention.
Meanwhile. practically no pota-
toes were moving into Washington
through the regular channels. A
carload of Idaho potatoes, the third
from that State and probably the
last this season. arrived here yester-
day and was quickly gobbled up by
10 commission merchants, who re-
ceived As bags each.
Another carload of potatoes from
Maine was reported to have come in,
but no trace could be found of it. 1t
was presumed this shipment was
taken over by the armed forces.
Commission merchants also re-
ported scarcities of peas, cabbage
and lettuce, but shipments of these
vegetables were said to be on the
way. Citrus fruits, it was said, were
reasonably plentiful and snap beans
were now coming into the market in
satisfactory quantities.
According to Joseph Cavanaugh,
director of special services of the
fruit and vegetable league. the ef-
fects of the Florida freeze" of sew
eral months ago are still being felt
here. Mr.. Cavanaugh said that
about 40 per cent of the produce for
this area during February, March
and April comes from those regions
of the South which suffered most
from the freeze" Generally, it was
said, the supply of vegetables could
be expected to pick up from now on.
Spokesman for the produce dealers
said spasmodic shortages in certain
lines of green vegetables here were
due largely to the faulty ceiling
structures imposed by the OPA.
Several weeks ago. ceilings in the
New York Office, handling the region
comprising the District, Maryland,
Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania
and New York State, were adjusted
at the terminal level with markups
for wholesalers and retailers, in an
effort to equalize prices throughout
the area and encourage better bal
ance of supplies among the various
metropolitan markets in the region.
These ceilings, however, it was
said, threw the Middle Atlantic
region out of line with the South
eastern States and made it necessary
for the Atlanta regional office to
revise its ceilings. This, in turn,
according to the local dealers, again
knocked the District prices out of
line and another revision was made
necessary by the New York ofice
yesterday:
The potato supply was stopped
principally by the Government order
which gave priorities to movements
of stocks for the armed forces and
for seed. At the same tmie, the
OPA placed q premium Of rs cents
hundredweight on seed potatoes
which encouraged Maine farmers to
divert much Of their table crop into
seed.

Department Heads Lauded.
The committee in its report on
the bill to the House, paid tribute to
a number of District department
heads. For instance, it said:
The committee wishes to compli-
ment the fire department on its
efficient work.
The committee welcomes and
congratulates the new director of
public welfare, Mr.. Ray L. Huff.
1t is certain that his long experience
and his familiarity with the prob
lens and conditions existent in the
District of Columbia will serve to
provide the community with an
efficient and effective administra-
ton
The committee is pleased with
the progress that has been made in
physical education" Tin the public
schools. 1T is happy to note that
this training is comparable to the
preliminary training given by the
Army and Navy"
The committee also is pleased
with the progress of vocational edu-
cation in the schools"
School Estimates Cut.
The committee chopped $l08. .16O
of the original estimates of the
commissioners for the public schools,
principally in personnel items. but it
did allow an item of $503,OO0 for
purchase of eight sites for school
buildings to be constructed after
the war. The approved program
authorizes the acquisition of sites
in the vicinity Of Nichols avenue and
Sumner road Sc. for an elementary
school OF Is or more rooms to replace
the present Birney School; l6-
room elementary school building in
the vicinity of Kenilworth avenue
and Barnes lane NE: junior high
school in the vicinity of Thirty
fourth and Minnesota avenue Sc:
16-room elementary school build
ing in the vicinity of Stanton road
and Bruce place Sc; a Junior high
school in the vicinity of Ninth and
c streets Sc: 16-room addition to
the new Logan School: a 16-room
elementary school in the vicinity of
the Seaton School near Second and
/ streets NV, to replace the present
Gales and Seaton schools, and an
addition to the Armstrong High
School.
In slashing budget estimates for
additional employees, the committee
recommended that either the Com
missioners or their responsible
personnel make a comprehensive
survey of the entire force OF the mu-
nicipal government to find out if
there is an excess of help In any
agency.
Cuts Seen Possible.
"The committee has noted with
concern said its report, that
there is fertile field for retrench-
ment and suggests that the Com
missioners initiate studies of the
need of certain departments for ad-
ditionai manpower."
The committee also declared It
