The British Ambassador and an
Annapolis plebe compared notes last
night-on bagpipe playing.
To the skirling of such bonny
tunes as Highland Laddie" and
Cock O. the North Lord and
Lady Inverchapel repaid diplo-
matte obligation with a buffet sup
per for Calvin Hurd of Monrovia,
Calf, and 10 fellow midshipmen
who had entertained the Ambassa-
dor at the Naval Academy last
month.
Midshipman Hurd, who PLAYED a
bagpipe solo for the Ambassador at
Annapolis, brought along his pipes
last night and collaborated with
Lord Inverchapels personal piper
Tom Maclean, to provide a true
Scottish atmosphere.
For the Scots among the middies
and the Ambassador alike, the
drcnes and skirls were irresistible as
the two pipers puffed away. They
Wed with one another in demon
stration of intricate highland dance
steps.
The Ambassador-Who comes of
the Clan Kerr-himself is piper
of long standing, I've never
charmed diplomats with the pipes, u
he admitted last night, "but once
when was IA, 1 incurred the wrath
of some Dutch farmers when I at
tracted their COWS as I was playing
along a dixie in Holland. I felt like
the Pied Piper"
He just hasn't the wind" any
more. said the 65-year-old veteran
diplomat, so he leaves music making
now to Mr.. MacLean, who is only 10
but comes from a long line of bag
pipe players.
Midshipman Hurd whose Scottish
blood comes from grandfather in
Canada. took up the bagpipes only
b year ago to while, away his spare
hours. Il haven't mastered them
yet, by a long shot" he admitted
Practicing isn't made any easier
by the attitude of his non-Scottish
classmates, either, he added.
The other middies on hand last
night, however, professed to find
the music "tolerable," at least.
Midshipman Hurd's 10 companions
all visited Scotland last summer
while on a cruise and participated
in an observance of John Paul
Jones birthday at the Scottish
naval hero's birthplace,
near Kirkcudbright.
More interesting to Lady Inver-
chapel than the bagpipe playing
were the June wedding plans of
three of the middies who had their
fancees with them at the embassy
last night. These were MidShipman

What the Russians
Are Saying of Us

The MoScoaU radio, broadcastins
N Czech to Czechosloudkia, said:
THE behavior of United States
troops abroad gives an adequately
clear picture of the much praised
United States democracy and
civilization. The outrages COM
mitted by drunken United States
soldiers in restaurants and cafes
are countless. In the drunken
ness and excesses of these men
there is reflected the political
morals of their native country.
The excesses are no
chance events and no manifesto
tion of the hot temper OF few
undisciplined individuals. The
behavior of the United States
soldiery is characteristic re-
f1ection of the antidemocratic
and colonizing policy of the
United States in the countries
where United States troops are
stationed"

Veterans Civil Police
Urged by Gen. Gates
In Case Of Disaster

Gen. Clifton B. Gates, comman-
dant of the Marine Corps, last night
urged veterans organizations to
form a civic police force to keep
order in case of a catastrophe such
as an air attack,
The general was guest of honor
at a banquet of the National I'd
Division Association in the Ward
man Park Hotel.
Although the idea of an attack
may be far-fetched, the general
said, many said that the Pearl Har-
Dor attack couldn't happen"
an the present state of world
unrest Gen. Gates said, ''it is the
Job of all veterans to do all they
can to promote security for the
Nation" He asked veterans to see
that the United States has strong
forces.
More than IS association members
attended the dinner honoring Gen.
Gates. The association is composed
of World War I and World War II
veterans who served in the infantry
division. Gen. Gates was Marine
second lieutenant in the first World
War with the division. At the time
a Marine Corps unit was included in
the Army division.
Delegations from Cleveland, Chi
cago, Pittsburgh, New York and
Washington were present at the
dinner. Included in the group was
Lewis Malugen, 1925 M street NV,
and five other World War I vet
Grams who served under Gen. Gates
when he served with the original
Goth Company, 9Th Marine Regi-
ment in 1917.
Among the special guests were
Mrs. Gates; Maj Gen. Walter M
Robertson, commandant of the End
Division in World War II; Brig.
Gen. M. H. Silverthorne. USMC;
Ralph Lundgren, national associa-
! ton president. Keith Hall. president
of the Washington chapter, was
master of ceremonies.

GPO employees would be dismissed.
Mr.. Giegenack said, however, some
firings may be necessary.
The reason for tighter economy
measures at the printing office stems
from its reduced appropriations
voted last year by Congress. And
recently GPO employees won an
other pay raise, further depicting
the money on hand. So it appears
there will be sprinkling of dis
missals in various sections, although
not on any mass scale.
QUIP-A Senator who maintains
one of the largest Office staffs on
Capitol Hill was asked the other
day by one of his, House colleagues:
How many people work in your
office?"
"Oh, about half of them," cracked
the Senator.
PAY BILL-It's practically GER
tain that the House Civil Service
Committee will approve the bill of
Chairman Rees to grant temporary
$3.50 annual raises to Government
workers. Hearings start Wednes-
day.
One major hurdle that the legis-
lation will have to clear before it
reaches the House floor, however,
is the House Rules Committee.
What makes it a touch-and-go
situation is the fact that the Rules
Committee is composed of members
who are predominantly conserva-
tive. But Mr.. Rees is on very
friendly terms with Chairman
Allen of the committee, and this
will aid the bill somewhat when it
comes up eventually before the rules
group.
Without the Rules Committees
approval, the bill cannot come up
for House action. That is why
hackers of the legislation already
are buttonholing some of the COM
mittee members to gain their sup
port.

clared most other countries pro-
vide maternity leave benefits for
their women employees and that the
United States should do the same.
incidentally, the estimates are
that the bill would cost $5,00O0 900

Martin Urges Cufbaek
In Federal Agencies
TO Reduce Tax Load

House Speaker Martin last night
urged a cutback of Government
agencies ito peacetine size" to re-
duce the burden on taxpayers.
Speaking at the Veterans of For
eign Wars annual Washington
Birthday banquet at the Hotel Stat
Ter. the Massachusetts, Republican
also declared that aid to Europe
and the Orient must not be a
world WPA unlimited"
Without singing out the top
heavy, inefficient Government agen-
cies," he said current budget pro-
posals of the administration "have
a sinister meaning for veterans and
other young people trying to get
ahead"
One of the most bitter struggles
being made by the bureaus today
is against the Congress cutting them
back to peacetime size and expen-
ditures,' he said
Must Insure Opportunities.
Mr. Martin summed up COP tax
reduction plans with a warning that
Congress must make certain oppor-
tunities for veterans "are not cam
ceied by crushing burden of taX-
alton or in the corrosion of inf1a-
ton"
The Republican leader also de-
Tended congressional reductions in
national defense appropriations.
Calling for strong armed forces pro-
grams, he said Congress has cut re-
quests for defense funds by only Is
per cent and allowed the Air Force
$76000,000 more than the budget
called for this year.
In strong attack on Russia, Mr..
Martin backed up the Governments
loyaltyprogram and suggested that
this Nation send back to their own
countries those who came here and
find so much wrong with ours"
Points to Russian Imitation.
Soviet Communism has utterly
and completely failed" he said, "un-
der widespread waste, graft and cor
ruption. They have had worse in
flation in Russia than we have had
in the United States"
Mr.. Martin described about 80
bills passed during this session to
aid war veterans, but made no men,

training-the two main legislative
interests of the VFW.

HAYNES HARB0R E REJECTED BY
 ARMY ENGINEER

SEATTLE, Aug. 9-R-The engi- neers' corps reported unfavorable to- day on a proposal for improvements of Haines Harbor, Alaska.
 Col. Theron D. Weaver. division engineer, said the report was made after hearing at Haines.
 Tn view of the evidence pre- sented,' Weaver's report said, "The construction of the jetties would not alleviate the damage from winds to shipping when deep draft boats were approaching or leaving the dock. The benefits accuring from the pro- lection to small boats by the con- struction of a small boat harbor are believed to be insufficient to justify the necessary expenditures. Further more Lutak Inlet, three miles north of Haines, offers all the requisites of natural protected harbor which could be developed at low cost to accommodate the needs of the inter- ests involved"
