the board-in fact the board hasn't
even publicly announced that it has
the three cases before it.
The fact that the employees have
appealed their agencies findings in
dicates the Loyalty Board will have
some tough decisions to make. At
any rate, its decision In these cases
will be closely watched In Govern
ment circles.
BUREAUCRACY-A story making
the rounds of the Society OF Per-
sonnel Administration these days Is
a perfect illustration Of why Gov
ernment agencies sometimes leave
themselves wide open to charges of
red tape and bureaucracy.
It seems that one of the larger
departments in town recently order
ed three 15-cent pamphlets from a
New York publisher. Figuring that
the trouble and expense of billing
the Government for As cents wasn't
worth the effort it entailed, the pub
Usher sent along the booklets free.
But, inadvertently, he sent along an
extra booklet.
Was the department happy to re-
ceive four booklets without charge?
No, indeed. It bonbarded the pub
Usher with rejection slips for the
additional booklet, sent along in
voices for him to fill out and a series
of letters asking for disposition in
structions."
The weary publisher didn't answer
any Of these communications, hop
ing that the department would
finally let well enough alone and ac-
cept the four booklets free of
charge.
But, alas, his wishes were in vain.
Back to the publisher came the
extra l5-cent pamphlet-by express
-collect-67 cents!
DELAY-Senate Civil Service
Committee action on Federal pay
raises will be delayed for at least
several weeks.
To gain full committee support
for his 81 900 Government pay raise
measure, Chairman LANCER has de-
cided to hold of final committee
action until printed copies Of the
voluminous hearings are available.
The pay hearings recently con-
cluded by q Senate Civfl Service
Subcommittee were one of the most
exhaustive and complete hearings
on Federal wage legislation ever
held by Congress. And Senator
LANCER feels that, II all the COM
mittee members can read the printed
hearings, they will 60 along with
the subcommittee in supporting a
liberal pay bill.
But the Government Printing Or
flee says it will be at least several
weeks before the document can be
printed. The hearings comprise
about 800 pages, and that's a big
job. So now it looks as If the
House Civil Service Committee will
act on Federal pay legislation
sooner than the Senate group, even
though Senate hearings started
about q month earlier.

Two Women Released
I'm Grocer's S Murder;
Crime Battles Police

Working with the f1imSiest OF
clues, police Sreported no progress
today toward capture Of the gun
man who killed Meyer Meyrovitch,
80, in his grocery last Monday night.
Two colored women living in the
vicinity of 90 o street NV, the
location of Mr.. Meyrovitch's store,
were questioned last night and re-
leased. Police refused to. reveal
whether they furnished helpful in
formation.
Capt. Robert S. Bryant, acting
chief of detectives, said nothing has
been turned up to alter the theory
that the popular grocer was slain
by a holdup man, who then became
frightened and fed without taking
a large sum Of money in the cash
register and in the victims pockets.
Capt. Bryant said detectives were
keeping busy running down a food
of tips. Among them was one that
Mr.. Meyrovitch had been threatened,
but he did not place too much Gre
dence in that, the detective chief
added.
Many Attend Funeral.
Funeral services for sMr. Negro
witch, held yesterday at the DAN
zansky funeral home, 3501 Four
teenth street NV, were attended
by about 100 persons, many OF them
neighbors and customers OF the
grocer.
Rabbi Zemach Green Of Chev
Sholom Congregation, eulogized Mr.
Meyrovitch as man whose char
ity was extended to needy people
in his community.
He said Mr.. Meyroyitch's violent
death should stir in the community
the realization that more policemen
and jails alone cannot solve the
crime problem.
Deeper than that Is the need fol
better education, better housing ano
an end to prejudice and racial dis
elimination. he said.
This crime was the result Of ig-
norance, poverty and bitterness,
Rabbi Green added.
Pistol Sought In River.
Navy divers are continuing
search for a German automatic
that two confessed slayers of two
taxicab drivers said they threw into
the Potomac near Key Bridge.
Police want the weapon as addi-
tional evidence against George and
Lawrence Garner, the brothers who
admitted Wednesday that they shot
the cabmen after robbtng them last
Friday night.
Police Supt. Robert J. Barrett said
the $500 police offered for informa-
ton leading to the arrest and con-
viction of the killers would be
divided between two tipsters whom
he declined to name. They also
will receive about $500 furnished by
taxicab drivers.
Among the congratulations re-
ceived by police for the taxicah
murder arrests was letter from
Elks' Lodge, No. IS, of which Maj
Barrett and other policemen are
members. On motion Of Guy A.
Caponnetto, incoming exalted ruler

vides faster, more comfortable, cleaner
ride for passengers. 1t is swift, efficient
power plant in switching service.
And, outstanding among the vir-
tues of the diesel locomotive is its
economical consumption of fuel oil.
The war made Americans oil-conscious,
and the postwar shortages of petroleum
products especially liquid fuel for home
heating wide speculation to the
effect that diesel locomotives are excess
sively rough on the nations oil supply.
General Motors Corporation has made
an exhaustive study of petroleum con-
sumption by this county's principal users.
The study developed these facts:
The approximately 5000 diesel loco
motives in railway service today burn
only per cent of the total petroleum
products consumed in this country.
If diesel locomotives had perform
ed all work on the railways in l947,
the quantity of diesel fuel burned
would have been less than per cent
of the total consumption of petrol
cum products in all fields last year.
The expanding use of diesel power
by Great Northern is of tlDo-fold con-
sequence: better railway service and
real conservation of Americas oil
resources.

DIEsELs EASY ON OIL SUPPLY

Farmers and ranchers have learned
that while medium-size tractor costs
more than team of horses, it has far
greater work capacity, and in the long
pull is more economical than Old Dobbin.
What the tractor is to the man on the
land, the diesel locomotive has become
to the railway industry. Diesel freight,
passenger and switching locomotives are
going to work for the nations railways
now has in service l56 diesels, or 276 sep
arate units Of this power. Although more
are on order, the diesel is not expected to
completely replace the steam locomotive
for a long time--if ever.
A diesel locomotive costs more than
a steam engine of comparable power
rating; but, from there on the difference
markedly favors the diesel. Expanded
use of diesel power is keeping down
operating costs-an extremely vital
factor these days when wage, ma
terial and supply costs are far out
of proportion to charges the rail-
ways are told they can make for
their services.
The diesel locomotive is superior to
it's steam-driven cousin in many other
respects. 1t is able TO haul freight
trains on more reliable schedules. 1t pro-
