Pepeo Rate Hearing
Resumes Wednesday

The annual electric rate hearing
Of the Public Utilities Commission
will be resumed at pm. Wednesday
in the commission Offices at the
District Building.
The inquiry into the finances of
the Potomac Electric Power Co. was
recessed a little more than week
ago to permit the Procurement Dlvl-
sion Of the Treasury Department
time to prepare its case which is ex-
pected to be directed at lower rates.
The Treasury, representing the Fed
eral Government as consumer,
pays an annual electric bill of about
$5 ,0O0,O 900.
At the opening session last month
v. A. McElfresh. chief accountant
for the PUG, said his investigation
of company income showed about
$486, 900 available to be used for rate
reduction to consumers under the
so-called sliding scale arrangement
by which the rates are determined
| Because of its suit against the
commission order of 1914 which
called for S1,037 900 to be returned
to the consumers, the Pepco has held
the proceedings illegal until the
Court of Appeals settles the case
The company has produced no wit
nesses or exhibits for the hearing

AMvETS Head Rates Bonus
After Other Problems

Veterans now face greater prob
lens than the application of pres
sure for bonus, which ultimately
will be granted" Jack W. Hardy,
national commander of the Amer
ican Veterans of World War II, de-
clared last night.
The statement was made in let
ter to the Regular Veterans As
sociation in reply to request as
to how the AMVETS stand on the
bonus matter.
More constructive service could
be rendered by the returning vet
eran by devoting time, thought and
action to the solution of some of
our critical national problems than
in holding mass meetings to devise
ways and means of securing cash
gift from State or the national Gov
ernment,p Mr.. Hardy declared.
He added, however, that there is
little doubt that bonuses ultimately
will be paid"

Job Openings on File
With uses Increase
For First Time in '46

For the first time since Decem-
ber the number of job openings on
file with the United States Employ
ment Service in the District has
shown an increase. USES officials
reported last night.
The upswing was attributed large
ly to the efforts of the eight employ
er service representatives who
have been canvassing District en-
ployers to persuade them to call on
the USES for the workers they need.
Since it started March 18, the Job
development" team has visited ITS
employers to put over the idea that
the USES can supply the workers
they INDEPENDENTLY since all
veterans must register with the
USES for jobs before they can draw
unemployment compensation.
Bring In Actual Orders.
Ernest v. Connolly, associate
USES area director, reported that
although the USES representatives
on the street were not expected to
get job orders on the spot, they were
actually bringing in the orders. He
emphasized that they were not try
ing to create jobs, but only to give
veterans and others an opportunity
to get the jobs which they might
not hear about if the employers did
not place orders with the USES.
Mr.. Connolly said the USES repre-
sentatives had reported a good re-
ception from employers in 80 per
cent of the cases. The other 10 per
cent, he said, still resented the war
time controls placed on them by the
War Manpower Commission and
carried out by the USES.
With the help of the PLAINTIFF
plant canvass, job openings rose
here from 1894 on March / to T.
1913 on April l.. Previously. job
openings had been shrinking
steadily since December when the
USES had openings for 1900
workers.
Job placements also have in
creased, the USES reported. In
March, $685. workers were placed in
jobs as compared with 1852 in
February.
Labor Turnover Decreases.
The employer service representa-
tives, who ultimately will visit 400
District employers with Is or more
employees, said they had been told
by employers that labor turnover
has decreased.
Turnover, principal wartime head
ache of employees. has been curbed,
partially by the fact jobs are
harder to get, partially by the re-
turn of veterans, and partially by
special services employers are now
giving their workers, the USES rep
resentatives reported.
Employers. they said, reported
that veterans returning to their old

proposed in legislation introduced by
Senator McCarran, Democrat, OF
Nevada, 1t was pointed out.
Covered by the third act are the
police and firemen, but no legisla-
ton is pending to raise their pay.
Ofhcials said, however, that if a S400
increase were given all the Districts
$4,000 employees the total cost would
be about S7000,0O0,
Both Senator Downey and Mr..
Rando' oh have announced they will
seek more liberal pay bill in con-
ference than the Senate's graduated
II per cent version or the fiat $400
increase proposed by the House.
On the other hand, Senators Byrd
and Hickenlooper and Mr.. Rees have
indicated they will seek to steer the
compromise measure close to the
Senate version.
Housing Plans Blocked.
From cuts made in the next years
budget, the District will have about
100000 left of the $1O.000,000 set
aside for postwar construction, now
facing a stumbling block in the
Federal veterans housing program.
Part of this money could probably
be used to meet any pay increase,
it was said.
Meanwhile, the Labor Department
reported yesterday that SO per cent
of Federal workers in classified jobs
now earn from to per cent less
than they did before the last gen.
eral pay increase in July, 1945.
An article prepared for the
Monthly Labor Review" attributed
the loss to the adoption of 40
hour week after vi day and the
consequent omission of overtime
pay. 1t was pointed out also that
more than half the 100000 CLASH
fed Government employees received
salaries of less than $4,000 a year
as of last July, with only per cent
earning $4,000 or more.

District Will Require
$2,400,o0o More 10
Meet U. 5. Pay Raise

Extra appropriations for the Dis
trict government will be necessary
to pay increases under any Federal
wage raise bill, District officials said
yesterday, with the only alternative
a reduction in the number of city
employees. now numbering 6,o00-odd.
Of1cials pointed out yesterday
that the House e-approved version of
the pay bill would cost the District
81, 400, 900 more in salaries. Officials
said a supplemental act would be
necessary to make the funds avail
able when pay raises are voted
finally.
They expressed hope, however, that
if a general increase is approved
the additional funds to pay it would
be voted largely as matter OF
course despite the stipulation by the
House that all salary appropriations
for all Government departments be
the same for the 1947 fiscal year as
the 1916. This stipulation was voted
in connection with the fiat s400 in
crease approved by the House on
Thursday.
House and Senate conferees prob
ably will meet Tuesday or Wednes-
day to draft final version of the
pay bill - -r.
Representing the Senate will be
Chairman Downey of the Civil
Service Committee, Senator Byrd
Democrat, of Virginia, Senator
LANCER, Republican, of North Da
kota and Senator Hickenloper, Re.
publican, of North. Dakota.
House Group Not Named.
The House conferees have not
been selected, but are expected tc
include Chairman Randolph of the
Civil Service Committee, Represent.
ative Jackson, Democrat, of Wash
ington and Representative Rees
Republican, of Kansas.
While there was reason to believe
the bills final form would differ
from the House version, District
officials drew their cost estimates
Just in case" They reminded
however, that District workers are
paid under three separate acts.
In addition to the cost of salar,
increases to workers covered by tn.
Classification Act, an additional
81 ,033, 900 would be added to tn.
city's bill if teachers salaries art
raised from $100 to $500 a year a.

Jobs apparently required no period
of adjustment, were sticking to their
work and were good influence on
the other employees.
AS for services to workers, en-
ployers are now making health and
insurance plans available and some
of them are giving their workers
specified time off to shop or go to
the bank. One employer, it was
reported, gave his employees time
of to stand in line for nylons.
