Salisbury Spinster
Is Sent 10 Jail, but
Still 0ufWits Law
BY the Associated Press

SALISBURY, Md, Aug. 27.-
Miss Viola Miriam GoSlee, a 55-
year-old Spinster who outran the
sheriff for three years. was sent
to jail yesterday but still was a
step ahead in her trifling with the
law.
A judge asked her If she would
file a final accounting as admin
tstrator Of the estates left by her
parents when they died years ago.
IN have to see my brother
first before I promise a single
thing" she said.
Bring in the brother. some one
suggested.
1t can't be done, said the crafty
little woman. He's a cripple. He
can't travel.
So Miss Goslee. a Goucher Col
lege graduate. went to Jail, judged
in contempt Of court. She must
stay there. the court said, until
she files the accounting.
In court she wore knee-length
rubber boots, an orange-and-
green print skirt and a blue-and-
white blouse.
She was in ragged clothes made
OF feed sacks when a speedy State
trooper outran her Monday across
q field.
Fifty times before, Sheriff Jes-
SEE M. Pollitt estimated, she had
outwitted or outrun the process
servers.
Always before she hid behind
locked doors when a sheriff
knocked, or ducked out the back
way while he waited. She was
wise enough not to accept reg
lstered mail with q summons in it.
Earle S. Horsey has contested
his sister-in-law's disposition of
the estate and was appointed ad-
ministator in place of Miss Goslee
because of her failure to comply
with court rulings.
Court clerks estimated not more
than $4,000 is involved in the
estate.

Federal Workers Vote to Seek
Restoration of 26-Doy Leave

have been shelved In committee,
and there is no possibility that the
AFGE convention will approve
them. AFGE top officials are
strongly opposed to them and
have succeeded In burying them.
Mr.. Ramspeck addressed the
convention on Tuesday and stirred
up some controversy with his
strong statement opposing the So
called Little Wagner Act measure,
which would compel agencies to
deal officially with all unions on
personnel issues and grievances.
During yesterdays session,
Thomas G. Walters. operations
director of the AFL Government
Employees Council, told the con-
vention he disagrees sharply with
some Of Mr.. Ramspeck's views.
Disagreement on Issues.
Mr.. Walters paid tribute to Mr..
Ramspeck's courageous and out
spoken leadership" but he said
there are a number of issues on
which employe groups and the
commission chief do not see eye
to eye.
Mr.. Walters said the Little
Wagner Act bill is necessary. diff
fering with Mr.. Ramspeck's con-
tention that no formal bargaining
machinery is needed.
The union leader also criticized
Mr.. Ramspeck's contention that
the civil service retirement fund is
on a shaky financial basis. The
fund is in good condition, Mr..
Walters asserted. He said his
group will push for permanent
annuity increases for retired Fed
eral workers and increased sur
worship insurance benefits for
Federal workers and their families
Sees Merit Plan Endangered.
Also, Mr.. Walters differed with
the Civil Service Commissions ad-
vocacy of legislation to give the
various departments and agencies
the right to do their on examin-
ing and recruiting. Mr.. Walters
declared the merit system would
be jeopardized by such decen-
tralization. He declared control
should remain with the commits
sion.
Meanwhile. at a press confer
ence yesterday, Mr.. Ramspeck
predicted that Government en-
ployes will not be effected by the
outcome of the November election
Only / or per cent of all Fed
deral workers are not covered by
the merit system, Mr.. Ramspeck
declared.
He said he does not think the
oulk Of civil service employees will
vote the Democratic ticket. If
anything, the tendency is to vote
against the boss" he said.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 27.-
The 18th biennial convention OF
the AFL American Federation OF
Government Employees has voted
unanimously to ask the new
Congress to restore 26 days OF
annual leave for all Government

the repeal of the Thomas leave

nual leave.
The delegates urged IS days

least Is years Of, service receive
26 days Of annual leave. Those
with less than three years of serv-
ice get 13 days, and those with
from three to Is years service get
20 days.
Cutback Condemned.
The convention approved the
resolution that condemned the
cutback of leave benefits as short
sightedness. which,. in the long
run. would cost the Government
money in terms of lowered morale
and the failure to attract and re-
tain the best available personnel

outstanding employees were at.

sive fight when Congress returns

objectives voted by the delegates
