thing on this subject" Mr. Auchin-
Gloss declared, so our conscience
will be clear"
Some of the changes in local gov
ernment structure since 1929 which
probably will be reflected in Mr..
Pierce's report will include:
Reorganization Of the Engineer
Department in 1892 resulting in the
creation of the positions of director
of highways, director of construc-
ton, director of inspections and dl-
rector of sanitary engineering.
Broadening of the responsibilities
of the Department of Vehicles and
Traffic in 1885.
Transfer of the public hospitals
from the Welfare Department to the
Health Department in 1887.
consolidation of Inspection.
Consolidation of electrical inspec-
ton with building and plumbing in
spection under the director OF IN
spections in 1888.
Establishment of the District
Board of Tax Appeals in the Reve-
nue. Act of 1899.
Creation of the Rent Control Ad-
ministration in 1941.
Creation of the Motor Vehicle
Parking Agency in 1941.
Separation of city auditing and
budgeting functions in 1941.
Consolidation of public recreation
facilities under the Recreation
Board in 1912. This included IA
cilities of the District government,
the Board of Education and the
Office of National Capital Parks.
Merger of the old Police Court
and Municipal Court into the pres
ent Municipal Court in 1912.
Services to Veterans.
Wartime civilian defense organ
ization under the Blackout Act.
Services to veterans starting as
an offshoot of the Blackout Act
but being included in the District
budget in July, 1945. Last year it
took over the administration OF the
war housing center previously run
by the Federal Government.
Separation of the adult penal
institutions from the Board of
Public Welfare into separate de-
partment of corrections last July.
Transfer last month OF the opera
ton of the fire alarm system from
the electrical department to the fire
department.

ers now have only Is days annual
and 10 days sick leave.
Senator LANCER appointed a sub
committee to consider the legislation
and report back to the full COM
mittee.
Government union groups mean
time began a concerted drive to win
unemployment compensation bene-
fits for dismissed Federal employees.
Union officials started visiting
members of Congress. seeking to line
up the support of key members in
both the House and Senate.
Together with liberalized retire
ment bills, jobless payments are
considered among the chief legis-
lative goals during this session of
Congress as far as Federal workers
are concerned. The Importance OF
obtaining such benefits is height
ened by the fact that many thou
sands of Federal workers are slated
to be fired in the coming months.
Hail Truman's Support.
Union officials were elated over
President Truman's announced sup
port of such legislation yesterday
as he issued the new civil service
regulations. The union leaders feel
that, with administration support,
the legislation has fair chance
of passage.
One bill already has been intro
duced in the House by Representa-
tive Lynch, Democrat, of New York.
The measure would give any worker
discharged from the Government
service the same benefits provided
employees in private industry. Such
benefits would be incorporated into
the Social Security Act.
The unions throwing their support
behind unemployment compensa-
ton benefits for Federal workers are
the CIO United Public Workers of
America, the AFL American Fed
Grafton of Government Employees
and the National Federation of Fed
eral Employees.
While the union leaders were
happy over Mr. Truman's support
of unemployment benefits, they
were disappointed over failure of
the civil service rules to include
recognition of unionism in the Fed
eral service. AS originally drafted,
the rules contained such a provision,
but the section was missing when
the regulations were released yes
terday.

Baltimore Board Studies
Error in Senatorial Vote
By the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Feb. 25.-Discrep-
ancies totaling 414 votes from Balti-
more City in favor of Brig. Gen. D.
John Markey, defeated Republican
candidate for United States Senator
in last November's election, was un-
der study today by the Baltimore
Board of Election Supervisors.
The board said it found the dis
crepancy after a check of the voting
machines with the certified results.
The check was made at hearing
for officials of polling places in six
precincts summoned to explain err
rors reported by Senate committee
investigating the election on the
challenge of Gen. Markey.
The board said inspection of ma
chimes throughout the city disclosed
Democratic Senator O'Conor had
been given 314 votes too many and
Gen. Markey 100 too few. Senator
O'Conor won the election, according
to the official returns, by 1882 votes.
The board said it would defer any
action on the case pending a study
of the transcript of the testimony
given by poll officials.

do-something" tendency had de-
veloped. But, he added:
1T is far better to proceed slowly
carefully, thoughtfully and with an
assurance beyond reasonable doubt
that evils sought to be eliminated
to be avoided or corrected may not
have been enhanced by ill-consid-
cred parliamentary tactics and de-
cisiors"
NLRB Compared to Nazis.
The House Labor Committee
heard Raymond S. Livingstone, vice
president of Thompson Products
Corp, declare that the National La
Dor Relations Board had destroyed"
two independent unions through
Shocking perversions Of justice"
= Mr.. Livingstone, whose firm makes
automobile and aircraft parts, said
the NLRB practiced partnership
and bias worthy of Nazi Germany"
Mr.. Dubinsky said the flood of
strikes following the end of the war
was caused by economic insecurity
of the workers" and that remedies
suggested in Congress would not
reach the root of the trouble. He
added:
1.-THE obvious solution of the prob
lem lies in efforts and measures
that would remove or minimize that
insecurity. Yet not single one of
the labor bills before your commit
tee is directed to that end.
Urges Real Collective Bargaining.
Instead, the proposed legislation
would render organized labor i'm
potent: it would prove detrimental
to the best interests of our coun-
try; it would be a step in the direc-
ton of weakening our economic
system; it would be body blow to
our democracy"
Mr.. Dubinsky also said Congress
should act to assure real collective
bargaining" between management
and labor.
His testimony was along the line
Of that given last week by AFL
President William Green and CIO
President Philip Murray which COM
mittee members assailed as mega
tive" and "unco-operative"
The Senate bill banning the closed
shop also would outlaw other forms
of union security, including the
union shop and maintenance of
membership contracts.
Mr.. Dubinsky said nearly all of
the $4,000 members of his union
work under union shop agreements
He said such contracts provide "the
only realistic bargaining strength
with which to match the bargaining
advantage Of the employer"

'Mahoney TO Support
LiIienthaI WherryStiII
Doubts Confirmation
By the Assoeioted Press

Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat
of Wyoming said today he will
support the confirmation of Da-
vid E. Lilienthal as chairman of
the Atomic Energy Commission
| But Senator Wherry of Nebraska,
the Republican whip, reiterated his
declaration that there is grave
doubt" the nominee will win Senate
approval.
Senator O'Mahoney told newsmen
he has seen nothing thus far in the
testimony taken by the Atomic
Energy Committee which would
justify vote against Mr.. Lilienthal.
The wyoming 1awmaker is the
23d Senator to take a public stand
for confirmation, and one of Al in
dicated by an Associated Press poll
to be favorable to the former Ten
nessee Valley Authority chief. The
poll shows % against, "a who refuse
to say in advance how they will
vote, and two who could not be
reached.
Senator Wherry, who has made a
private check of sentiment on the
controverted nomination, said today
anything can happen" with the
result still in doubt
He added that he is sure of one
thing: The debate will be long and
heated.
The committee is pointing for a
vote by Saturday on Mr.. Lilienthal,
the other four appointees to the
commission, and Carroll Wilson,
general manager. AL now are serv-
ing in their various capacities, un-
der appointments made by Presi-
dent Truman when Congress was
not in session.

IService. Commission has become a
haven for those fiat tires in the
Government service who perform
no useful functions. When any one
achieves that label, 1t is evident tnat
he has no further usefulness.
"At one time the New Dealers used
to call the Commerce Department
the great statistical futility," MIR.
Taber continued. "It has now be-
come the haven for homeless. ECO
nomists, but worse than that they
operate on about 10 per cent ef-
ficiency."
Taft Favors Tapering Off.
Meanwhile, Senator Taft, Repub-
lican, of Ohio, put the Army and
Navy on notice that while they may
escape severe budget cuts this year
the next Congress session very likely
will trim their combined funds to
81, 500, ,0O0, 900.
AS the Senate marked time before
resuming limited debate tomorrow
on a Government spending ceiling
goal, Senator Taft told a reporter
he believes the armed services ought
to begin now to plan to taper off
costs to a peacetime level.
Snator Barkley, the Democratic
leader, told the Senate yesterday
the $4,000, ,O00, 900 economy pledge Of
the House contemplates taking
$3.50, 900, 900 away from the armed
forces
Senator Barkley and Senators
Pepper, Democrat. of Florida, and
O'Mahoney, Democrat, of Wyoming,
chided Chairman Bridges of the
Senate Appropriations Committee
about Senator Bridges refusal to
disclose where slashes would be
made.
Senator Bridges retorted that the
Democrats will get that information
when individual appropriations bills
come before the Senate. Waving
his hand at the Democrats across
the aisle, the New Hampshire mem
bef shouted:
THE whole thing is that the SEN
ators on the other side are against
any cuts for anything"

In discussing the Korean situa-

IT have done all can over there
and have come back for discussions
at higher levels. What further is
done is up to some one higherup."
Gen. Hodge told questioners that
the Russians have confirmed,
through their radio in North Korea,
reports of a system to draft all able
bodied males between II and Is.
DR.. Syngman Rhee, leader of the
South Korean Democratic League,
who is now in Washington, said this
involves drilling and equipping 50o,-
600 Korean troops in the Soviet zone
Gen. Hodge asserted that there
was no need to build up a Korean
Army If the Russians intended to
carry out the Moscow agreement
of 1945.
Under that agreement, . joint
