Appeals Board Asked
For Civil Service
Dismissal Cases
Mead Introduces Bill
For 5-Member Group to
Review Information

Senator Mead, Democrat, Of New
York has introduced a bill to estab-
lish f1ve-member board Of appeals
in the Civil Service Commission to
review information presented in
cases of discharged Federal en-
ployes.
A spokesman at Senator Mead's
office today said the bill is working
model to be perfected in committee.
The board. it was said, is designed
to supplant the present appeal pro-
cedure now carried on within de-
partments and agencies themselves
1t is pointed out that no similar
centralized review board exists at
present.
As outlined in the bill, a dis
missed employe would be able to
make a written application to the
board for hearing and review of
the dismissal action. Such an en-
ploye would be permitted to sub
NIT evidence. as well as appear be-
fore the board to hear, examine and
reply to statements of other parties.
The panel, as set up in the bill.
would consist of f1ve members, with
at least one labor representative.
and the chairman would be picked
by the commission. '..
1t is claimed that the bill would
standardize procedure in appeal
cases. Although there is at present
a Board of Appeals within the Civil
Service Commission. it handles only
appeals from the action of the COM
missioners, review such complaints
as dissatisfaction with examination
ratings or other rulings.

Exile in France and raised money

She later founded an orphanage for
Serbian and Yugoslavian children at
Selce which is now occupied by
Italian officers.
Nine. Fotitch, wife of the present
minister from Yugoslavia. will head
the receiving line, which will include
Alice Paul. chairman Of the World

FREE FRENCH:
agreement Reached

American and British insistence
on settlement of the Free French
wrangle resulted in the establish
ment of Gen. Henri Giraud as COM
mander-in-chief of all French forces
in North and West Africa. Gen.
Charles DeGaulle was named lead
er of the forces in other French pos
sessions in Syria and East Africa.
The appointment represented
victory for the Giraud faction, since
the territories put under his wing
are among the richest and most
strategic of French possessions and
contain the bulk of the French
army. Furthermore, Giraud's lead
ership in the territory allows him
free hand in the disposition of many
military commanders to whom De-
Gaulle was hostile.
At the time it announced the dual
arrangement, the French national
committee also revealed it had set
up military delegation composed
of both Giraud and DeGaulle and
their chiefs-of-staff to work out an
eventual unifcation of both COM
mandS.

MEDITERRANEAN:
Yarn Italy of Bombings

AS Lieut.-Gen. Carl A. Spaatz
stated that the Allies now could OBJ
tain air supremacy in the Mediterra-
mean by concentrating their superior
forces in any given locale, the Italian
people were warned that their indus
trial centers would continue to be
pounded as long as they produced
goods for the Axis.
Commander of the North African
air forces, General Spaatz said that
any barrier before Allied troops
could be reduced by the proper use
of full air power.
Urging Italian workers to move
with their families from factory
areas, Allied radio broadcasts de-
clared "Our airmen will bomb your
war industries and communications
as relentlessly as they have bombed
your ports and ships during the At
rican campaign"
Continuing their aerial assault, Al
lied planes, paced by British We'll
ingtons, plastered Sicily. Block
busters were dropped on Messina,
the terminal point for the ferry from
Italy, and Sicilian airdromes. Mean
while, the Italians were reported
evacuating the civilian population
from both Sicily and Sardinia.

PAY-AS-YOU-GO:
Menu E1Derience

July l, 1913, will long be remem-
bered in the United States. For,
history will show that on that date,
millions of American taxpayers will
have begun paying their income
taxes as they go instead of waiting
till March Is of the following year
to settle their accounts with Uncle
Sam.
Under the new pay-as-you-go sys-
tenn, employers will deduct 20 per
cent from employees wages or sal
aries. Farmers and others who OBJ
tain income from sources other than
wages or salaries must estimate
their yearly earnings and then make
quarterly payments. In all cases,
payments will be made after legal
exemptions.
The pay-as-you-go law forgives all
taxes for 1912 or 1913, whichever
is lower, up to $50, and rs per cent
of all taxes above that figure. Al
though a person may not have to
pay an income tax, the 3 per cent
victory tax will be deducted from
his check.

TRUCE:
In Coal Mines

Under an agreement reached by
Secretary of the Interior Harold
Ickes and John L. Lewis, the ma
tons 100000 coal miners returned
to the pits to work under new
truce expiring October 81. Accord
ing to the announcement, produc-
ton will be resumed under the
terms of the old contract, which
presumably include concessions
granted by the War Labor board
amounting to % cents day.
The agreement followed Lewis
contention that the miners would
return to work for the government
only, which took over the supervi-
sion of the pits as result of the
first strike threat. Under arrange
ments, however, the government
named the operators to run the
mines and receive the profits.
Termination of the latest strike
left the 'portal-to-portal" pay issue
up in the air. Lewis has argued
for such pay, which represents COM
pensation to the miners for time
spent travelling to and from their
working stations. The WLB declared
it had no authority to pass on the
question, suggesting court action or
decision by the fair labor standards
bureau of the government.
Possibility that Lewis might fol-
low some such course was limited
in the miners statement announc-
ing their return to work.

RACE RIOTS:
Spread to Detroit

With its attention to race riots
first attracted by the "zoot-suit" up
risings in California, the federal
government was forced to step in to
quell outbreaks between blacks and
whites which threw Detroit into an
uproar.
Before 1900 soldiers arrived in
jeeps, trucks and armored cars to
restore order, % people had died
and 600 had been injured. Hundreds
had been arrested and confined in
the city's jails.
The trouble started after an alter
cation between whites and Negroes
at the Belle Isle beach, then was
famed into flames with the spread
of the erroneous rumor through the
colored district that a Negro wom-
an and child had been killed. Ra-
cial groups gathered quickly, ston-
ing private cars and public trans
and then beating the occupants.
When Detroit police could no long
er control the situation, Gov. Harry
Kelly of Michigan appealed to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for federal interven-
ton. The President ordered the dis
patch of the troops.

Eight hundred Raj bombers

First used at Krefeld last fall,
block-busters again were poured on
the German city, center of special
steel and parachute textile produc-
ton. Site of hard coal mining, Kre-
field also is known for its sulphur
output The British admitted the
loss of "A planes.
In attacking Friedrichshafen, the
Raj blasted the former Zeppelin
works housing a factory producing
radio location equipment similar to
the U. S. "radar." Hits were OBJ
served on all main buildings, in

The Nazi "Gauleiter" for the Bal
tic States has ordered the removal

Because many types of air raid
shelters now in use are scant protec-

hurry the construction of new under
ground shelters.

JAP CURFEW:
Upheld by Supreme Court

In unanimous decision, the Su-
preme court affirmed the right of a
military commander in imposing a
curfew on Japanese residents of the
Pacific coast in March, 1912.
Two American citizens of Japa-
nese ancestry contested the army's
action as applying against them as
well as aliens. Of the 10000 Japa-
nese affected, 10000 were citizens.
The court ruled the army had no
time to make distinctions.
