Byrd Calls for Action
On Bill 10 Curb Use
OF Federal Cars

Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
lginia, leader of the drive against
nonessential Federal expenditures,
yesterday called for action on his
bill to limit use of Government au-
tomobiles to official business-with
heavy penalties to be imposed on
violatorS.
His plan, considered by a Senate
committee late in the last Congress
and now reintroduced, provides a
fine up to $1,000 or Imprisonment
up to one year, or both. for any
officer or employe of the United
States who violates car use rules
Also it proposed that any Govern.
ment employe who authorizes the
use Of a Government vehicle fol
other than ofiicial business woulc
be "summarily removed" from Of.
flee.
Senator Byrd yesterday told Stal
reporter:
''If some people think the pro.
posed penalties in my bill are TOT
severe, let them contemplate tn,
fact that under existing law bust.
nesSman who fails to file an answer
to a Government QUESTIONABLE ir
response to something or other il
subject to similar punishment"
Senator Byrd insisted that Con.
gress should act to specify limita
tionS on the use of Government
automobiles, particularly in view o.
the war emergency.
Senator Byrd agreed YESTERDAY
there may be some arguments abou
his proposal for Government "cal
pool" but that he felt there should
be law to prevent use of Govern.
ment vehicles for private purposes

Great Discussion Enter
ed Into By. Clerk, Au-
ditOlie And Councilmen
Regarding Incident

Roy Hamlih, city clerk
presented a letter to the
City Council last night in
forming the board that hs
had dispensed with the serv,
ices of Mrs. Betty Shuts a.
assistant in his office.
Mr.. Hamlin stated that he
informed Mrs. Shuts when
she left the office several
days ago on a two weeks va
cation that he would not
need her services any longer.
Clerk Hamlin stated that
he was forced to take this
action due to the fact that
the attitude shown by his as
sistant of late was not in
harmony with the function
ing of the office, and there
fore felt that it was best for
all concerned that she sever
her connections with this de-
partment of the city.
This matter brought on great
discussion by Auditor Charles r..
Roberts, Clerk Hamlin and the
council concerning the matter.
The council took the position that
MIR, Hamlin was entirely respon-
sible for the functioning of the
clerks office. inasmuch as he is
an elected official, and therefore
is privileged to dismiss any en-
p1oye in that office that he so de-
sires. Miss Florence Weiner was
named to succeed Mrs. SHUTS in
the clerks office.
Councilman Leonard B. Grillon
stated that while he regretted the
matter very much, inasmuch as
Mrs. Shuts had proved to be a
very efficient employe of the city,
nevertheless it was a matter to
be left up to the clerk, who rs
held responsible by the council
for all activities pertaining to that
office.
Councilman GriIlon furth I
stated that he felt that inaSmuch
as Mrs. Shuts had proved to be
an efficient and faithful worker.
that she be at least given some
consideration.
1t was shown that Mayor Will
lard NJ Albury is now in need of
a secretary, and Councilman Grill
Ion moved that Mrs. Shuts be
employed as secretary TO the
city's chief executive, with the
motion being carried.
The discussion was precipitat-
ed when Auditor Roberts adj
dressed the council, in which he
objected to the dismissal of Mrs.
Shuts, stating that this action
was deplorable ins the extreme,
masmuch as she had proved to
be one of the most efficient en-
ployes the city ever had, and said
that he felt that she should not
be dismissed without the sane
ton of the council. Mr.. Roberts
stated that he did not know ex-
actly what had taken place, but
said that something had gone
wrong in the clerks office"
He also said that efficiency was
