Joint Services Commission, was
just such a hostess last night
and under those very circum-
stances.
Holder of a $1.70 ticket on the
English Derby. she came into
$4,000 pounds yesterday when
Galcador came in a winner.
She shrieked with Joy when the
news came and then exclaimed: !:
twenty-five thousand pounds! |!
Oh, what will I do with all that
money!"
That was q question still hang
ing in the air last night. The
British Information Service here
said British income tax would
take about three-fourths Of it. A
British income tax expert volun-
teered the information last night
that ne did not think it could be
taxed under British income tax
laws.
A query to London by The Star
through the Associated Press
brought indications that it was
considered a gambling win and
could not be taxed.
First reports which told Miss
Holmes that her Government
would take the lions share of her
earnings failed to diminish her
still-bubbling elation at her party
last night.
Later, when told of the possibili-
ty that neither British or United
States income tax laws could
touch her gold mine, she had an
other shrek of joy-chorused and
echoed by a houseful of guests at
her home. 1857 Harvard street
NV.
The money-or the prospect of
it at leaSt-already is bringing
her a trip home. Miss Holmes is
to leave Washington tomorrow for
New York where she will board a
plane on Tuesday for England.
Miss Holmes. who makes $2,700
a year, came to Washington from
England about 8 months ago to
work for the Commission. She
couldn't recall what prompted her
to plunge on the Derby ticket,

Hoover Report Group
Urges Action on 80
Real Economy Steps
by the Assoeioted Press

The Citizens Committee for the
Hoover Report yesterday urged
Congress to act Immediately on 80
reorganization bills in which, it
declared. 1.-The real economies lie. "
'"The estimated s6 billion Fed
eral deficit-which is 18 per cent
Of our total revenues-clearly en-
phasiZes the need for the savings
possible through enactment of
recommendations of the Hoover
report" said DR.. Robert L. john
son. chairman of the voluntary
group. In a statement.
Several billion dollars annually
could be chopped from Federal
spending II the Hoover plans were
adopted in their entirety"
Progress Is Praised.
The committee, organized to pro-
mote the Federal reforms drafted
by the Commission on Federal Re-
organization headed by former
President Hoover, praised Con-
gress for progress made, including
the approval of Is White House
reorganization plans which be-
came law on Wednesday.
"The 81st Congress has the op-
portunity to retire with the best
record for governmental improve
ment in the Nations history" said
DR.. johnson, who is president of
Temple University, Philadelphia.
But he added that some mem
bers are "purposely delaying &C
ton" on several major bills, and
urged that the public bring pres
sure for their enactment this ses-
sion. Otherwise, he said, all the
measures will have to be intro
duced anew in the 82d Congress,
convening next January.
Urgent Bills Cited.
The most urgent bills now pend
ing. DR.. johnson said, are those
which would:
l. Organize the Post Office De-
partment on a business-type basis
and remove $4,000 postmasters
from political appointment.
2. Set up a merit system for
the Civil Service, free of political
influences" and efficient enough to
attract highest-caliber employees.
3. Overhaul the "outmoded and
cumbersome" procedures of &C
counting and budgeting.
Other pending measures which
cannot be accomplished by the
comparatively simple procedure of
reorganization plans drawn up by
the President, DR.. johnson said,
include:
Unif1cation of the Federal medi-
cal services in a single agency;
creation of an insurance corpora
ton, similar to private insurance
companies, in the Veterans Ad-
ministration, and the merging of
Federal construction under the
Interior Department.

The fiery, little red haired UAW
chief was jubilant at a press con-
ference over the fve-year con-
tract signed May % with General
Motors Corp. He called it a "bil-
lion dollar contract" It provides
at least $100 a month pensions,
including social security, and an
annual wage boost.
Mr.. Reuther declared it was
implicit in. the contract that
management recognized wages
could be increased without raising
prices. Management, he said, had
come around to his Idea of

round"

Mr.. Reuther said the UAW In

contract would be the 1850 pat

would permit carrying it,"
Mr.. Reuther said the UAW will
continue to work at the Federal
level to achieve 5000 a month pen

termed company pension plans
supplementary to social security.
The union leader declared that

Who will win the 1850 Northwest
Fourth of July baseball tournament?
That question will not be answered
until Tuesday. July 4, when the two
teams surviving the rough three-day
schedule battle it out for the title.
Heavily favored to retain the
crown for the third straight year
is the Seattle Nisei Veterans team.
The Vets were squeezed out, AZ,
by Portland Vets in I947 when the
first Northwest tourney since the
war was held. Since then. the Sc
attic nine has been sitting on top
with the as and 40 titles.
Serious contenders will be the
Portland Vets, Western Giants and
Hood River, with the Northwest
Times All-Stars as the dark horse
entry.
1t was the Portland Vets who al
most dropped the Seattle Vets last
year out of the championship run

to come from behind in the last in

then moved into the consolation

The Violet puts down some IS differ
ent types of buoys.
To put buoy with 30 feet of anchor
chain overheard almost at the same
spot where a buoy is already floating
calls for enormous skill in ship
handling, for If the chains foul one
another, the resultant mess is night
mare to untangle. Keeping In mind the
strength and direction Of the tide and
the slack of the anchor chain, the
skipper must figure exactly how far
from the other buoy to dump the
new one overheard in order to bring
it into position.
One of the few compensations of
the job Is to haul up buoy and
find a cluster of oysters. One OF the
veterans aboard the Violet recalls a
haul of Is bushels of oysters from
the innards of sunken buoy. which
had been recovered. 1t. Hudgins

held high in the air, it is an awe
some nine-ton mass of moss and
barnacle-covered metal.
If the water Is kicking up and the
buoy gets to swinging in the slippery
grip of the hoist. the men below would
be better off almost any place else.
However, the dangerous business OF
playing nursemaid to signal buoys In
the Chesapeake is old stuff to 1t.
Arthur NJ Hudgins and his crew on
the Violet. They look after all the
buoys in the bay between Point Look
out and the Chesapeake g. Delaware
Canal-a stretch of lit miles. The
crew is well trained and they look up
to 1t. HudginS, who has been In this
business for % years.
In the wheelhouse, Skipper Hudgins
is directing the hosting operation.
He keeps wary eye on the metal
monster being slowly deposited on
the deck and the men working under
it.
"The trouble with this business" he
says, sis that when you get hurt you
get hurt bad-maybe, If you're lucky,
a severed foot or leg"
Now the buoy Is secured on deck
and the crew sets about pulling up
the anchor and chain. This particular
one is a mushroom anchor which has
embedded itself in the soft muck OF
the bay bottom, and the suction Is
terrific.
The anchor chain is taut as the
crane boom goes to work.
Hold 'er there" 1t. Hudgins tells
Evening star., 1950-09-10

the operator The crew looks ex-
pectantly at the rigid chain and there
is a strange hush aboard ship. Will
the chain snap?
Now the crane gives another hitch
on the chain. Then another wait.
At each interval the crew watches the
chain tensely. Finally, the anchor pulls
clear Of the muck, there Is an air of
relief among the crew, and up she
comes laden with black goo from the
bottom. A crewman Immediately be-
gins washing away the muck with a
hose.
The job of the Violet crew is to look
after all navigation aids, mostly buoys
and lighthouses They pick up each
buoy after about a years immersion,
scrape, repair and paint 1t. They re-
place acetylene tanks or electric bat
teries in the case of light buoys. The
work Is endless and arduous.
The toughest job is to pick up old
buoys and put down replacements.
In addition to the buoys there are
heavy anchors and chains to handle.
A lighted bell buoy In 80 feet of water
might have as much as 80 feet of
chain leading down to the anchor, to
allow certain amount of play. The
anchor Is weighted with a concrete
block, the two totaling $500 pounds.
Such tremendous weights are
needed to hold the buoy exactly In
position, for If 1t should drag. some
misguided mariner might veer from
the. channel and pile his vessel on a
shoal Ice forming on the bay In
