Hearing Set March a
On 5 Bills 10 Improve
District Penal System

Five bills designed to improve the
Districts penal system will come
up for public hearing before the
House District Judiciary Subcom-
mittee at 10 am. March "a.
Chairman O'Hara Of the subcom-
mittee set the hearing at an execu-
tive session yesterday, when con-
sideration was given to two other
District measures.
Representative Hebert, Democrat,
Of Louisiana said he was eager to
get action on his five bills. which
constitute only part of a broad
program he has laid before the
House. Three other bills have been
referred to different subcommittee.
The five bills would:
/. Provide that if a child 16 or
older is charged with an offense
amounting to felony, the Juvenile
Court judge may waive jurisdiction
and order the child held for trial
by a regular court.
2. Provide that in the control,
sale or transfer of dangerous weap-
ons-arrests, searches and seizures
may be made by police officers upon
probable cause as for felony.
8. Create a Board of Parole for
penal and correctional institutions
consisting of three members ap-
pointed by the Commissioners. Ap-
pointment of these members would
transfer power from the Board of
Indeterminate Sentence and Parole.
4. Transfer minor criminal cases
to the jurisdiction of the Municipal
Court. This would be done by rails
ing the monetary limit Of such Of
fenses as thefts, frauds, and dam
age to private property from $50
to 5000. The bill is designed to de-
crease the case load Of the higher
court.
S. Authorize the court, to place
on probation defendant convicted
of any crime not punishable by
death, when the circumstances war
rant.

Despite these moves, Mr.. Truman
showed no disposition to dispense
with the corporation type Of Federal
agency which, he noted, can IDEAL
with the public in the manner en-
ployed by private business" On the
contrary, he said, study may indi-
cate that certain existing agencies

Proposals BY Allen.
Some OF the changes suggested for
RFC are in line with the measures
proposed by George e. Allen. RFC
director, who resigned December 81
and submitted report urging revi-
sion Of the RFC Act.
MIR. Truman recommended that
the authority of Government cor
porations to issue Government
guaranteed bonds to the public be
revoked, and that they be permitted
to borrow only from the Treasury,
as during the war.
He said that instead Of getting
Treasury funds at / per cent inter-
est, the corporations henceforth
should pay the current average on
Government bonds. 1.8 per cent, and
dividends should be paid on capital

Harper Says War Potential
Remains in German Minds
by the Asseeiotsd Press

BERLIN, Jan. 10.--Maj. Gen.
Robert w. Harper. director of the
armed forces division of the Ameri-
can Military Government, says
Germany's physical disarmament
is virtually completed but that
a war potential still must be
eliminated from some German
minds.
He forecast yesterday that all Ger
man war material would be dis
posed Of or demilitarized by next
July !, through a very high de-
gree Of cooperation among the
four powers" in occupation.
However, he said, Germany has
been probably the most militia
ristic nation in history" and her
citizens still must be kept under
Allied observation and long-range
re-education must be carried out.
He reported German army strength
at about ll,000, 900 at the wars end.
Gen. Harper said four power
agreement had been hardest tc get
on the question of disarmament
reporting and inspection, but added:
This subject is now being recon-
sidered favorably"

Mailing Asks Congress
To Meet Portal Pay Cases

NEW YORK, Jan. 10 P.-Rec-
concentrations by L. Metcalfe
Walling, wage-hour administrator
tor two changes in the Fair Labor
Standards Act intended to avert
conditions resulting in the multi
billion dollar flood of portal-to-
portal pay suits were pending be-
fore Congress today.
Mr.. Walling, in his 1916 report to
Congress, renewed two proposals he
previously had made. He released
his report yesterday from his office
here.
The proposals are:
l. A grant to the administrator of
power, subject to court review, to
issue authoritative definitions of
general terms used in the statute,
so that employers complying with
his definitions would be protected
from liability for the period such
rulings are in effect"
2. A request for reasonable
statute of limitations in the Fair
Labor Standards Act, to apply to
employe suits for back wages and
damages"
Mr.. Walling said In reference to
his first proposal that "at the present
time the administrator can give only
advisory opinions" and added that
ANY court in the land, State or
Federal, has jurisdiction to entertain
suits under the act."-
If the administrator had power to
issue specific definitions, MIR. Walling
said, he could protect employers
from any civil or criminal liability
where they are complying with the
administrators regulations"
Mr.. Walling also assed Congress
to establish new minimum hourly
wage of IS cents to replace the
present 40 cents.
