lnferfederation Posfpones
Action on Daylight Time

The Interfederation Conference
last night postponed until its next
meeting action on the proposal to
introduce summer daylight saving
time in Washington and nearby
communities to enable uninstructed
delegates from the District and Ar
lington County to determine how
they should vote on the issue.
When a resolution approving the
proposal was introduced last night,
it was learned delegates from the
District Federation of Citizens AS.
.sociations and the Arlington County
Civic Federation had come unin-
structed on the position they should
lake regarding it.
, Both the Prince Georges and
Montgomery County delegations
were prepared to vote favorably on
the time change. The fifth member
body Of the interfederation, the
Fairfax County Civic Federation
was not represented.
In another action, the group voted
to appoint a standing committee to
keep informed on the progress OF
the contemplated development of q
Federal City" in the Suitland (Md)
area.
William G. Watt of the Arlington
delegation conducted the meeting
held In The Star Building.

Government attorneys told the
court George Washington had no
authority to convey this land when
he was laying out the Federal City
in 1894. As matter of fact, the
Federal lawyers maintained, Major

vicinity of the disputed land.
Government attorneys are Robert
r. McCloud, Mrs. Nanieta Smith and
j. w. Ingram. The defendants are
represented by Daniel Partridge Sd
and Milton D. Campbell.
None of them could explain why
it has taken SO long for the case to
come to trial. The delay might have
resulted, it was believed, from wait
ing for court rulings in cases which
might have had a bearing on this
one
The case, being heard before
Justice F. Dickinson Let's. is ex-
pected to last the remainder of the

Bill Allows Retirement Fund
Return Under 10. Years

A liberalized plan for the return
of salary deductions to civil service
employees separated from positions
covered by civil service retirement
was proposed to the House yester-
dy by Representative Jones, Repub-
lcan, of Washington.
Subject to certain restrictions. the
retirement deductions could be re-
claimed with per cent interest
compound annually by civil service
employees who had not completed
a total Of 10 years service. The
present maximum for return of de-
ductions is five years service
The measure would cover persons
transferred to positions not within
the purvieW of civil service retire
ment. 1t also would cover involun-
tary separation, except dismissals
on charges of misconduct or delin-
quency.
