Stock Market Stages
Further Recovery,
But Volume Lags
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-Bullish
forces continued to dominate to-
days stock market proceedings and
leading steels, rails and industrial
specialties extended their recovery
by fractions to around two points.
While volume was slack through
out, the direction was upward from
the opening on. The ticker tape fire.
quently halted near the fourth hour.
Buying again was predicted partly
on the idea the sharp slide of the
past two weeks or so may have gone
a long way in discounting reconver-
sion difficulties which might follow
a quick European'victory. Numerous
customers, however, awaited war
developments with some skepticism
regarding economic repercussions
and these inclined to stand aside.
Bethlehem strengthened in re-
sponse to a pleasing financial state
ment. Ahead most of the time were
United States Steel, Santa Fe, Della
ware & Hudson, Southern Pacific,
Westinghouse, Omnibus Corp,
Montgomery Ward, Anaconda, Dome
Mines, American Telephone, Good
rich and United Aircraft. A wide
assortment of issues was unchanged.
Bonds were selectively higher.
Heyden Chemical, in the curb,
pushed up in response to boosted
dividend. Supported also were Cities

tional Hydro-Electric preferred.

Gossman Denies Issuina
Statements in Burko Case

Clifford K. Gossman, 10, named
in several affidavits as having made
statements concerning testimony he
was to give in the trial of Joseph
R. Burko, denied yesterday in Dis
trict Court that he had talked about
Burko with those who signed the
afhdavits.
Burko was convicted last October
OF conspiracy to illegally acquire
gasoline coupons and also of re-
ceiving stolen coupons. The hear
ing yesterday was in connection with
Burko's motion for a new trial,
which has been taken under advise
ment by Justice James M. Proctor.
Gossman, one of two men indicted
with Burko on the conspiracy
charge, is awaiting sentence after
pleading guilty.
Sanford Carrier, who was in the
District Jail on a murder charge Of
which he was later acquitted, said
Gossman had told him Burko had
nothing to do with the coupons.
Walter E. Watson, now an inmate
at Lorton Reformatory, quoted Goss-
man as saying he did not even know
Burko, but that he was anxious to
beat the rap" Both men, as well
as Paul A. McCraw, testified In sup
port of their affidavits.

Special Senate Inquiry
Finds Discrimination
BY Civil Service

Congress had before it today the
report of Senate special investi-
eating committee which charged
personal patronage and discrimina-
ton has been increasing in civil
service.
Senator Ellender, Democrat, of
Louisiana, reporting for the special
committee to investigate the admin
istration and operation of civil
service laws, charged that the Civil
Service Commission often has been
"just a means for certifying the
friends referred by an agency head
to the commission for examination.
The report recommended legisla-
ton be drafted to return the civil
service to "a peacetime basis and
to merit system principles"
Sees Abuses During War.
During the war years, the report
said, appointments to high posi-
tions, unmerited promotions, trans
fers to higher grades and excellent
efficiency ratings have been increas-
ingly awarded to personal fol-
lowers"
Among the charges made by the
committee, which first started hear
ings back in 1888, are the following
Promotions in many cases were
not based on what the employe die
but on whom he knew; many eff
cient employees had served for many
years without promotion or salary
increase, while more recently ap.
pointed employs had advanced one
to three grades; transfers in many
cases were available only to those
who knew the right people; eff
cheney ratings in some agencies
were being used as a tool for fur
thering the desires of the admin
istrator-the rating being raised tc
provide promotion for favorite
and lowered to provide for dis
missal Of an employe who had in
Cured disapproval.
Lack of Protection.
The committee also found that
lack of protection was afforded
employees against discrimination.
Employees had little or no re-
course against discrimination" the
report said. Such appeal as they
were permitted in most cases was
submitted through or reviewed by
the persons responsible for discrim-
ination. The accuser in most in.
stances is passed by the accused.
Such appeals usually resulted ir
further Determinations and discip.
|linary action against the employe
the committee said.
Although the Civil Service Com
mission declined to answer th'
charges formally, it was learned
that on efficiency rating appeal
Eahout half the employees who appea
win higher ratings.
Inequities Expected.
Also, with hundreds of thousand
of persons now on the Government
payroll, there are bound to be in
equities in some instances. it wa
pointed out. The commission ha
felt in the past that establishment
of more efficient personnel admin
istration relationship would d.
more to correct injustices thar
legislation.
With the passage of the Starnes
Scrugham Act giving preference TO-
Federal jobs to veterans, the com
mission already has started its re
turn to a peacetime basis.
