dacy" for the Republican nomina-
ton for President.
I will make an announcement in

Gov. Bricker said one of the most
serious domestic problems is that
Government employees and their
families constitute almost 20 per
cent of the voters.
This may easily represent the

publican government"
After a private luncheon with
Edward Martin, Republican Gov

Bricker said at Constitution Day
ceremonies at Independence Hall:
mo man is wise enough to state
with exactitude what this Nations
obligations to others may be at the
conclusion of the war. or how they
may best be carried out. We do not
want a one-man or a one-party
peace. If we believe in collabora-
ton among nations we must put it
IN practice among Americans"

mission Director Fred z Hetzel an
nounced today that employment
service personnel would be stationed
at the Franklin School Administra-
ton Building next week to tell stu
dents how they can work part time

Haycock and his vocational guidance
and training chiefs will meet with
Mr.. Hetzel and employment service
officials to work out a detailed pro-
gram.
Work Permits to Be Supplied.
The announcement Of the employ
ment service arrangement was made,
Mr.. Hetzel explained, to assure
youngsters that they could work and

may mean readjustments in school
hours or job hours in line with en-
ployer demands and the require
ments of the school program. He

find out how many part-time jobs
are available, how many youngsters
want to work and how jobs can be
fitted into school hours.

Mr.. Hetzel also said today that he
was trying to arrange meeting
with selective service officials to
straighten out questions on. occu-
pational deferments of men in To-
cally critical jobs. .

must refer to the United States En-
ployment Service the cases OF all
men on the national list of critical
occupations but that it was not
mandatory for them to get USES
advice on the deferment of men in
the Is locally critical jobs.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10 (R.-The
New York Times said today in a
London dispatch that Russia had
proposed that the conference of for
eign ministers of the United States,
Britain and Russia be held in Mos
COW in october.
The dispatch said that although
British and American oficials had
urged that Foreign Commissar
Vyacheslav Molotov come to Lon
don, half way between Moscow and
Washington, for the conference
Soviet Vice Commlssar Ivan Maisky
had presented Molotov's argument
that he would be in a better posi-
ton to take action on questions
facing the conference If he were
in Moscow, where he could confer
constantly with Premier Stain.
In arguing that London be made
the conference site, the British and
Americans were represented as say
ing that the air journey to Moscow
would be difncult for Secretary o1
State Hull, and that his physicians
were hesitant about giving then
consent for so long a trip. 1t was
conceded, however, the Times said
that this consideration would not
be allowed to stand in the way o,
the conference.

clear the way for his return to
Louisville, KY, for final disposition

House Naval Counsel
Forecasts Revision
Of Renegotiation Act
BY the Associated Press.


Counsel for the House Naval AZ
fairs Committee predicts that Con-
gress will amend the renegotiation
law to exempt war contracts below
$500,000 and permit contractors civil
redress, but will not repeal the
statute.
At a conference yesterday spon-
sored by New York University, Rob-
ert E. Kline, jr, explained that he
was expressing his personal opinions.
II think both the public and Con-
gress are aware of the selfish in
terest behind the repeal movement"
he asserted. Il think that both are
alert to the necessity of preserving
this kind of safeguard against the
unnecessary and profligate expendi-
ture Of public funds, and =" I do
feel certain that the law will not be
repealed"
Would Save Time.
Exemption of contracts totaling
less than $50o,000 a year, Mr.. Kline
said, would reduce the work of re-
negotiation agencies materially, and
speed work on larger ones.
While the law does not provide for
an appeal, Mr.. Kline said most legal
authorities agreed that relief could
be sought in a civil suit. To remove
any doubt, however, a provision fol
court appeal win be written into the
act. he predicted. ...
Meanwhile, some members of the
House Ways and Means Committee
considering changes in the renegoti-
alton law, demanded after hearing
a Detroit axle manufacturer tell OF
threats by an Army renegotiation
board that any such "autocratic"
officers be hailed before the commit
tee.
Representative Dingell, Democrat
of Michigan, asserted he was con
vinced some of the brass hats of the
Army and Navy have misused their
power and had a blacklist which
they used when some one tried to
correct an injustice"
Manufacturer Testifies.
Mr.. Dingell's remarks came dur
ing testimony by Willard F. Rock
well, chairman Of the Timken De-
troit Axle Co., that an Army re-
negotiation board had threatened
him with "all sorts of consequences
If he refused to pay back from
1912 profits the arbitrary amount OF
s12,500,00o.
Il wish we could get some names
of these autocratic bureaucrats,
commented Representative Knut-
son. Republican, of Minnesota.
The Detroit manufacturer, also
production director for the Mari
time Commission, testified, "I've
heard they're out to take 5000, ,000,-
600 away from business and are TAX
ing it out Of us who were stupid
enough to put our money back in
the business"

Continuing the Brahms cycle Of
compositions at the Library of Con-
gress last night, the Coolidge Quar-
tet. with the assistance of Simeon
Bellison, clarinettist, and Frank
Sheridan, pianist, presented "Quin-
tet in B Minor" for clarinet and
strings, and two sonatas: one in
Fl Minor, Op. 100" for clarinet and
piano, the other in &c Major, Op
78" for violin and piano with Will
liam Kroll playing the violin part.
Beauty of tone attained by the duo
artists, refinement of style and free
dom OF execution contributed much
to the enjoyment Of the evening.
The atmosphere of informality
and good fellowship which prevailed
in the Coolidge Auditorium during
the program, brought to mind an
other era and close circle Of
friends who used to gather around
the composer to make music in the
cosy drawing room of Clara Schu-
mann. It was on those occasions
that all the numbers played yes
terday had their first hearing per-
formed by Joachim, members of his
quartet and the great Meiningefl
clarinettist Of his time, Richard
Muehlfeld. p
1t is difficult to imagine anyone
surprising Mr.. Bellison in the per-
formanee of the sonata which he
played with such a masterful COM
mand Of the clarinet in every de-
tail. His long phrasing and the
purity Of his tone were a source OF
undiminished enjoyment from be-
ginning to end. He was fortunate
in having for his partner Mr.. Sheri-
dan, whose artistic collaboration
contributed much to the pleasure
Of both works. In addition to such
virtue as an accomplished technique

In an address before the Dunn

McCarran Bill Wins
Sympathetic Support
OF Restaurant Group

The McCarran bill to tighten reg
ulations governing sanitary condi.
tions in restaurants in Washington
has the sympathetic support" OF
the Washington Restaurant Asso-
citation, Robert j. Wilson, executive
secretary OF the association, saio
today.
Mr.. Wilson said a committee from
the association would meet soon
with the Senate District Committee
to work together for the best bill
possible" He said representatives
from the Health Department also
would participate.
our primary purpose is to have
the cleanest restaurants in the
country" Mr.. Wilson said. ANY
thing that can be done to improve
existing regulations will receive our
enthusiastic support"
Mr.. Wilson said he had not given
enough study to the section of the
bill which provides for sanitation
gradings of restaurants to decide on
the merit of the proposal. WASH
ington restaurants would be graded
according to the standards of sani-
tat1on they maintain and their
grade would be shown on the menu,
under the terms of the bill.
The proposed increase of the
maximum penalty for health viola
tions from 5000 to 81, 900 is not nee
essary, Mr.. Wilson believes. He
declared the penalty section of the
present regulations is sufficient.
Meanwhile. two restaurant oper-
ators were fined $50 each by Mu-
nicipal Judge Almond Scott. Evan
CELIA Triantis, 1912 Seventh street
NV, was fined because an employe
smoked cigarette while handling
and preparing food, and the charges
against Jack Albert, 6434 Georgia
avenue NV, were having in ice
box decomposed steaks unfit for hu-
man consumption"
