The jeep was parked so feet from
the university laboratory when the
Commute exposure was made. Rays
of the university's giant X-ray unit
penetrated laboratory doors, the at
mosphere and the structure of the
jeep.
Four large film sections were
matched to obtain the finished

suffrage was advanced in substance
by Augustus Brevoort Woodward, a
young lawyer and protege of
Thomas Jefferson. He was not a
member of Congress, but later be-
came commissioner of the Michi-
gan Territory.
Asked Amendment in 1888.
A constitutional amendment for
national representation was advo-
Gated in 1888 by Theodore w. Noyes,
editor of The Star, and was for
mally proposed in Congress that
year and in 1889 by Senator Henry w,
Blair of New Hampshire. With some
changes, the measure subsequently
was renewed by Senator Jacob H.
Gallinger, also of New Hampshire.
In varying form, the constitution
al amendment proposal has been
advanced in practically every Con-
gress since that time. Changes in
form were adopted from time to
time to meet the suggestions of
friends and foes in and out of Con-
gress.
The Citizens Joint Committee on
National Representation, formed in
1917, brought together most Of the
civic, business, labor and veterans
organizations of the District. These
groups, while differing widely on
many matters of national policy
and local interest. have stood to-
gether through the years in support
of the idea of giving the people the
status or citizens of State, with
the power of electing their own
Senators, Representatives and pres
idential electors.
Never Came to Vote.
The recently formed Central
Suffrage Conference has carried on
the fight for national representa-
ton in recent weeks.
The Senate District Committee
held suffrage hearings in 1916 and
again in 1921, after which it IA
vorably reported suffrage pro-
posal entailing an amendment to
the Constitution in 1922. Without
further hearings, this measure was
reaffirmed by the same committee in
two subsequent Congresses, but
never came to vote on the floor.
The Senate Judiciary Committee,
in 1s41, made an adverse report
after hearings on a national repre-
sentation amendment proposal and
sent 1t to the Senate calendar, but
there it died.
After hearings in September last
year, Senate judiciary subcom-
mittee, headed by Senator Hatch,
Democrat, of New Mexico, made the
favorable October report on the
pending Summers -Capper measure
after slight amendment.
House Hearings Listed.
In the House, suffrage hearings
were held before the Judiciary Com
mittee in 1921, 1926, 1928, 1898 and
1945. In 1910, this committee, with
out hearings, reported out version
of the Sumners-Capper resolution
after amending it SO as to deny the
District representation in the Sem
ate. Efforts to obtain special rule
necessary to House action were un-
successful, and Congress adjourned
without action.
A House Judiciary subcommittee,
after hearings in February, 1915,
made a favorable report on the
measure to the full committee, but
last May II the committee refused
to vote it to the floor. This decision
was understood to have been in
fiuenced by Senate Judiciary Com
mittee decision to consider no con-
stitutional amendments during the
war

News Executives See
Veterans Jobs Ample
BY the Associated Press.

HONOLULU, Feb. 9-Three news
executives told Pacific servicemen in
a radio forum on Guam that ample
opportunities for work awaited them
in an America now in the throes of
reconversion, the Navy News re-
ported today.
The three-Robert Mclean, presi-
dent of the Philadelphia Bulletin
and of the Associated Press; Norman
Chandler, publisher of the Los An
|geles Times, and Benjamin Nickel
way, associate editor of The Wash
ington Evening Star-are touring
the Pacific as guests of the War
and Navy Departments to observe
at first hand the problems Of the
armed forces and progress being
made toward their solution.
Mr.. Mclean said reconversion was
posing problems for both employer
and worker. He declared the en-
ployer could not do all he wanted
to do, and that this affected the
worker He said good jobs were
not hanging on trees, but that
there were plenty of opportunities
with good futures for the right
men.
Mr.. Chandler said the West Coast
had many jobs available now and
would have more in the future, due
to the resumption of tourist trade
and the growth of industry around
Los Angeles and Southern Cali
fornia.
Mr.. McKelway said jobs would
exceed workers for the next five
years in the Washington area. All
three speakers warned of the dan
gers of starting ones own business
and encouraged servicemen to seek
educational benefits under the GI
Bill of Rights.

Randolph Rejects
Civil Service Priority
For Those Over IS

Chairman Randolph of the House
Civil Service Committee yesterday
rejected suggestion that priority
in civil service examinations be
given to applicants who are more
than 35 years of age.
The suggestion had come from
Samuel B. Pettengill, writer of a
syndicated column and former Mem
ber of Congress from Indiana, who
voiced concern over the job posi-
bilities of women who have passed
35 and men 40 years old, or older.
Mr.. Randolph took the position
that age should be considered only
when it affects the ability of per-
son to perform his duties or when
the duties are such that an elderly
or very youthful person might
jeopardize the safety Of himself or
others.
Ability First Requisite.
1.-THE duty of the Civil Service
Commission is stating the Federal
service with the most capable per-
sonnel it can attract under the
merit system" Mr.. Randolph wrote
Mr.. Pettengill.
"The age Of an applicant, per Sc,
is not reliable index to his ca
pacity and, therefore, it cannot be
taken into account as positive in
dication of his ability to do the
Job for which he is being tested.
"The impact Of this has come to
my attention in the past three weeks
in connection with the desire of
three men, whose ages were between
rs and 80, to continue in Govern
ment employment They were Wig
orous in mind and body and had
a wealth of experience which would
have made them valuable employees" +"
Conflict With Law Cited.
Further, he explained, the Vet
erans' Preference Act provides for
waving age requirements in most
cases, where the applicant is a
qualified veteran and, therefore, the
proposed fixing of minimum age
limits would be in conflict with
this law.
while I join with you in feeling
grave concern for those applicants
who have passed the age of 49," he
said, II believe we must develop
some other procedure to assure no
discrimination because of age"
