30-Month Limit Put
On Time Officers MAY
Be Kept Overseas

The War Department has issued
orders to theater commanders that
no oficer can be held overseas for
more than 80 months regardless OF
his duties or how irreplaceable he
is, 1t. was learned today.
The order, according to a War
Department spokesman, is designed
to prevent commanding officers
from keeping men indefinitely by
saying they cannot be replaced.
Under previous regulations, 1t was
explained, officers in scarce cat
egories"-such as those in military
government, and disposal OF surplus
property and experts in certain
tabulating machines-could be held
overseas up to six months after they
had enough points to be released.
Actually, 1t was reported, there
were enough loopholes in that reg
ulation to keep men even more thar
six months after they became
eligible. Under the new order
theater commanders would have tc
make special request to the Wal
Department and 60 through con-
siderable red tape to keep a man
beyond the 30-month limit.
For officers not included in scarce
categories, the order stands that
they must be sent home as soon as
they have enough points or are
declared surplus.

Raymond Buell., Foreign Affairs Taxi Driver Asks D. {.
Expert and WlIkie Adviser, Dies To Restore License

The Commissioners today were
asked to restore the identification
card license OF John j. Mayo, COL
ored taxicah driver, which was sus-
pended last fall by the Board OF
Revocation after Mayo was arrested
on charge of making a false re-
port to police.
Attorney Harry S. Wender filed
brief with the Commissioners sup
porting an earlier petition for re-
versal of the board action, which
he charged was arbitrary and had
placed his client in double jeopardy
The license was suspended for 90
days October 18, but on November
8 was restored to permit Mayo to
earn his living pending final deci-
sion on the appeal.
Mayo was arrested last July on a
charge OF falsely reporting to police
that an assault had been made on
him by two sailors. He was alleged
ly beaten by police in the course OF
the investigation.
Action by the Revocation Board
was taken before disposition oil
the case in Police Court In which
Mayo was acquitted.
Mayo's case precipitated a flood
of complaints from taxicab organ
izations against other actions by
the board which resulted in an in
vestigation OF board practices be-
ing ordered by the Commissioners.

e Canadian Says Reds
Are Making Political
Capital Of Spy Case
BY the A.seeie,sd Pres.

- OTTAWA. Feb. 2l-A Canadian
spokesman declared today the Rus
slams we're making political capi-
4al" out of the Canadian espionage
Ease and indicated his government
would deliver an early reply to
Moscow's charges that Canada has
been carrying on ian unbridled
campaign"
The spokesman intimated, how
ever. that the Canadian reply prob
ahly would be brief, for the govern
nent does not wish to prejudice the
ofncial investigation now under
way here.
When the royal commission con-
uuctine the investigation completes
work, he said, the Canadian gov
ernment may then issue a full
point-by-point reply to the Rus
sian statement.
No Advance Notice Received.
Commenting on the Russian as
sertion that Canada, in handling
Its Spy" investigation, was encour-
aging an anti-Soviet campaign. the
spokesman declared:
The Soviet statement started out
AS an admission of guilt sufficient
to cause the withdrawal of its mill
-tary attache, and then proceeding
10 minimize the whole matter and
sought to make political capital bv
motives to the Canadian
g government"
He said that Canada had received
mo advance notice of the Russian
and that the govern
knowledge on the matter
was limited to press accounts of the
statement as it was broadcast by
1.-The Moscow radio last night. Mos
: cow dispatches said an official text
mad been handed to the Canadian
Charge d'affaires in the Russian
capital and it was expected to reach
Ottawa today.
The Canadian government, mean
while, was put under increasing
ipressure to lift its blackout on news
OF the investigation into the alleged
bspy plot. e
Flood of Speculation.
The Ottawa branch of the Canad-
Ian Association of Scientific Work
ers last night passed a resolution
! declaring the lack of official news
had lied to the present flood of
, speculation concerning an alleged
sly ring said to involve, among
others, some Canadian scientists.
Laboratory workers and other
custodians of scientific data have
<been reported among a score or
, more of persons rounded up and
held incommunicado by investigat-
ing authorities.
The resolution demanded the
government issue a statement i'm
mediately to dispel IAN atmosphere
Of mistrust and hysteria."
Demands for an end of the news
/. blackout also were made by certain
sections OF the Canadian press.

Asked If there had been any pre-

Noble last night pointed out that
when the contract was signed the
two Negroes were not on the team
and the point did not arise until he
wrote three weeks ago to Nevada &

calling his attention to the fact
that those boys couldn't play" in
Mississippi
They insisted on playing them,
Nobel said, "and so I sent that tele-
gram"

The two Negroes BASS is from
