Urged 10 Save Food

Cards containing an appeal from
Secretary of Agriculture Anderson
to conserve wheat, fats and oils
were placed today on all tables OF
more than so cafeterias operated
in Government buildings by Gov
ernment Services, Inc.
Mr.. AnderSon's message appeared
on table tents" which also included
an appeal from Frank w. Hoover
general manager of the nonprofit
corporation.
"As you sit here eating your
lunch there are millions of people
in the world who wonder if they
will have anything to eat at all
today" Mr.. Anderson's message
read. LAS Americans, as public
servants-as human beings-we
cannot afford to ignore the terrible
need of these starving ppeople. We
must do everything humanity pos
sible to help them survive"
Mr.. Hoover said the cafeterias had
been able to save wheat and fats
and at the same time save their GUS
toners money. If no bread or butter
is taken on the special luncheons,
the charge is reduced, he said.
Meanwhile, the Washington Food
Conservation Committee released
figures showing that if each person
in Washington would save one slice
of bread at each meal every day,
this would result in a saving of
$4,000 bushels of flour in 80 days.
Assuming that it takes half a
loaf Of bread per person each day
to survive in Europe, the District
program would maintain life for
100000 people and that would con-
tinue for each day that the pro-
gram was met" statement said.
The committees figures were sup
piled by President Truman's Fam
inc Emergency Committee.

D. {. Considers Plan
10 Spend $4,000
On Receiving Home

Plans to spend $4,000 in remodel
ing the present Receiving Home for
Children on Little Falls road, in
stead of seeking additional funds
for new building at this time, are
under consideration by District Of
flcials.
Representatives of the Board of
Public Welfare, which operates the
home, conferred yesterday on the
project with Commissioner Guy
Mason and Assistant Engineer
Commissioner Kenneth E. Madsen.
Plans already have been COM
pleted for a new 96-inmate home
on land next to the Columbia In
stitution for the Deaf, but the $685.
900 appropriated by Congress sev-
eral years ago is some 100000 be-
low the lowest bid.
Waiting for Better Conditions.
Since the same situation has af-
fected all other municipal building
projects, Engineer Department Of
ficials have been unwilling to seek
additional money for the projects
on the ground that it would be an
undue waste of limited tax dollars,
They are waiting in hopes OF
settling conditions in the construc-
tion industry to bring the bids more
nearly in line with the funds avail
able.
AS result of this situation,
Chairman A. J. Driscoll of the We'll
fare Boards Committee on Insti-
tutions indicated little hope that
a new building would be available
IN less than year and a half.
Shifting of Space Suggested.
The Commissioners also suggested
to the welfare representatives the
possibility of reallocating space in
the buildings of the Industrial
Home School for Girls, next to the
present Receiving Home, to take
care of some of the overcrowding
in the Receiving Home.
1t was indicated that all of the
accommo odations in the Industrial
Home School for Girls are not now
being used and that a transfer of
some of the Receiving Home in
mates to one of the home school
buildings could relieve the conges-
ton some. ~,
Welfare officials said they would
look into the matter. Yesterday
there were 81 children in the Receiv-
ing Home, which has a capacity

Conferees Seek
To End Pay Bill
Deadlock TODAY
Mead Is Suggested
As New Member to
Settle Personnel Cut
By Joseph Young

Conferees on the Federal pay
bill prepared to meet again this
afternoon in a last-ditch at
tempt to agree on a measure be-
fore it becomes necessary for
them to return to the House and
Senate for further instructions.
Five previous meetings of the con-
ferees have proved unsuccessful in
achieving final agreement, and the
members reported they we're dead
locked following last Saturdays ses-
sion.
Meanwhile, the Government En-
ployes' Council of the AFL, said they
would urge the Senate to appoint
Senator Mead, Democrat, of New
York as the fifth member of the
Senate conferees' unit to break the
deadlock existing among the Senate
group.
Disagree on Reductions.
The fact that the conferees must
vote as separate House and Senate
units, rather than have their indi-
vidual votes tailed, is hampering
agreement since the Senate unit Is
divided on the main issue holding
up accord-the type of reduction-in-
force amendment to adopt as part
OF the bill in an attempt to reduce
substantially Federal personnel.
Chairman Downey Of the Senate
Civil Service Committee and Senator
LANCER, Republican, of North Da-
kota have joined with House con-
ferees In opposing the stand of
Senators Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia
and Hickenlooper. Republican, OF
Iowa for strong reduction force
amendment with teeth in it." The
Byrd and Hickenlooper faction also
is demanding that their amendment
be adopted before they will vote for
liberal wage increases.
Fears Bill Will Fail.
The Downey group, including
Chairman Randolph of the House
Civil Service Committee and Repre-
sentative Jackson, Democrat, OF
Washington, is asking for liberal
pay increases with less-severe per-
sonnel cut amendment.
In urging that Senator Mead be
appointed as the fifth member of the
Senate confeeres' team, George
Riley, operations director for the
Government Employees Council, de-
clared that only in that way can
agreement be reached.
otherwise, we face the possibility
Of having no pay bill passed at this
session of Congress-" he said.
Capitol Hill observers were sur
prised last month at the appoint
ment of an even number of Senate
conferees on the pay bill. since the
practice is to choose an odd num-
ber of members to prevent a dead
lock. Senator McKellar, president
pro tenn of the Senate, and Senator
George, Democrat, of Georgia out
rank Senator Mead in seniority on
the Senate Civil Service Commit
tee, but previous commitments are
said to make it unlikely that either
could serve as fifth member.
Flat Increase Likely.
Appointment of Senator Mead
would assure a more liberal bill
since he was one of the leaders in
the fight for the original 20 per
cent Federal pay bill when it came
up on the Senate floor last De-
cember.
Once the reduction in force
amendment is settled, indications
were that the conferees would vote
for bill similar to the $400 fiat
increase House measure rather than
the II per cent overall increase
voted by the Senate.
