the necessity for strengthening
the quality of the Governments
supervisory employees. whom he
considers the backbone OF the
Federal service.
Most of the ills found in Gov
ernment can be traced to poor
supervisory policy and admins
tration, Mr.. Steward feels.
While there are supervisory en-
ployes in Government who are
doing an adequate job, many
Others are not, Mr.. Steward feels.
In some of these latter cases. it
is not the employees fault as much
as it is the Governments failure
to develop an adequate supervi-
sorry policy, he believes.
Mr.. Steward will suggest COM
prehensive supervisory training
program to train the most promis-
ing and qualified employees for
these supervisory jobs. as well as
an intelligent program to guide
supervisory practices in Govern
ment.
Also, Mr.. Steward will urge a
vastly expanded promotion sys-
TEN in Government to recognize
and reward capable employees. In
this respect, he will go along with
the general promotion recommen-
dationS of the Hoover group.
MI. Steward also agrees with
the Hoover group on the necessity
of increasing top bracket salaries.
In addition, the NFFE chief will
urge a top-to-bottom realistic"
revision of the Federal Classifica-
ton Pay Act.
The one Hoover proposal on pay
that will draw Mr.. Stewards OBJ
lection Is the one that calls for
Federal salaries to be adjusted on
the basis of prevailing area rates
in comparable jobs in private in
dustry. Mr.. Steward fatty says
this won't work, that it would be
harmful to the average Govern
ment employe and would cause
much administrative confusion
and expense to the Government
itself.
AFGE CHOICE-James G. va
den, president of the AFL Amer
ican Federation of Government
Employees, has written to President
Truman urging that Donald S
Dawson be appointed the new
head Of the Civil Service Com
mission. At present, MIR. Dawson
is administrative assistant to
President Truman on personnel
matters. Mr.. Yaden urged that
Mr.. Dawson be appointed when
the present commission chief,
Harry B. Mitchell. retires.

LIVING COSTS-Bureau Of La
Dor Statistics officials conflde that
the latest cost of Living figures, to
be released tomorrow. will show
a further decline in living costs.
/ This will set back even further
hopes of a general Government
pay raise this year. While it's
true that the price index decline
has been small, it has had the
effect of Congress and the ad-
ministration discouraging any talk
about rank-and-file pay raises at
this time.
Pay raise advocates candidly
say the present situation has just
about dashed their hopes Of a
cost Of Living pay boost. What
they are hoping for, Of course. Is
that prices will decline sufficiently
so as to make another pay raise
unnecessary.

Food Poisoning
Tips Are Given

Summertime can be food poison
ing time, the Ohio Department of
Health warned today. Here are
some hints for avoiding that pos
sibility:
Proper cooking is the best in
surance against food poisoning.
Thorough cooking destroys the
bacteria which causes the ailment,
but it must be remembered that
these bacteria are in the air.
So after proper cooking comes
proper storage to make sure that
new crop of bacteria does not
take over between cooking and
eating. This is particularly true
of picnic meals.
This is best accomplished by
keeping the food hot. at cooking
temperature, or cold in a refriger-
ator until it is ready to be served.
Potato salads, meats, sandwich
spreads and other greasy foods
are most likely to become con-
taminated. These should be kept
cold until eaten.
Cream pies and baked goods
are considered especially danger,
Gus, according to the Ohio De,
partment of Health.
Those taking their lunches tt
work should keep them cool as
possible until eaten. Never leave
the lunch box in a closed automo
bile. That is one of the bes
possible set-ups for the develop
ment of food poisoning.

Joe NEWCOMB, local expert on
y marine life, brought in a fe-
male June bug late last week,
which was in progress of laying
two eggs (at least Joe said it was
a female and that those kernel-ap-
pearing items were eggs). New
comb was quite pleased with his
find as he said he has contended
for years that the female of
species lays her eggs in the water,
dies, and never comes to shore
In his many years experiences
along the lake, Joe had never
before found female laying eggs,
nor had he ever seen the eggs
before. He believes the June bug
eggs are devoured by young fish
thus the bothersome bugs are
helpful in that respect.
