Actually, there is nothing to

happens that the nome given to
the portion of the year characteri-

cribe the period of the year of the
dog star, Sirius, which included
about 40 days of the warmest
part of the year. The dog star
rises at different time now.
However, the term continues to
refer to that part of the summer
when the scarcity of rain causes
streams to stagnate and become
undesirable for swimming and
watering livestock.
Animals, especially dogs, suf-

Unions Not Target
In Loyalty Cheekup,
Ill., WorkersAssure

Assurance that the loyalty check
on Federal workers will not be used
to break up their unions and that
it will not turn into a witch hunt
has been given by Clyde A. Tolson
associate director of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.
Speaking over Radio Station
WRC last night, Mr.. Tolsop said
there was no cause for hysteria ex-
cept on the part of those with some
thing to conceal. Appearing with
him on the program was Arthur
Flemming, civil service commits
sioner. Mr.. Flemming said ade-
quate protection for employees faced
with dismissal on charges of dis
loyalty was provided in the system
Of appeals.
Both men were questioned by
Jerry Kluttz of the washington
Post.
The CIO United Public Workers
of America has charged that the
loyalty investigation is actually a
union busting drive" The union
which represents many Govern
ment workers, said it was a violation
of legal guarantees which allowed
workers to belong to trade union
and to keep membership lists secret
Mr.. Tolson last night said the in.
formation obtained will be used tc
identity the employe and nothing
else, as the FBI was "a fact-flnding
organization" The FBI does not
make decisions as to Federal en-
ploye's fitness or unfitness for Gov

Sales Tax Kick Back
Asked for Baltimore
BY the A.sociated Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. GA Balti-
more member of the General AS
sembly suggested that part of the
excess collections in prospect from
Maryland's new 2 per cent sales tax
Le kicked back" to the city.
Delegate Charles M. Bandiere,
Democrat from the 5th district,
made the proposal in letters to Gov.
Lane and Mayor Thomas D'Alesan-
dro yesterday.
The sales tax was calculated to
raise $1S, 400 600 annually when the
Legislature enacted it last spring.
Collections for July, the first month
of its operation, already have topped
the anticipated s1,533,000 average,
and July is considered "slow"
month.
Mr.. Bandiere suggested so per
cent of the excess collections be al
loted the city, figuring that Balti-
more residents pay about that pro-
portion of the tax. His own estimate
was that the sales levy will raise
about $25,000,000 annually.
