License for Carnival
Despite Objections

c. T. Nottingham. superintend-
ent Of licenses, today decided to
issue a license to the Anacostia
Lions Club to run a carnival at
Pennsylvania avenue and Carpen-
ter street Sc, starting tonight.
Issuance of the license was con-
tested by the Fort Davis Citizens
Association and some property
owners in the area. The commit
tee from the Lions Club. in press
ing for the license, said they had
already committed 500 for rent
ing the equipment. They added
club members and their wives were
going to conduct the attractions.
The objectors were represented
by Thomas B. Scott. Mr.. Noting
ham said he had decided in favor
of the carnival. He had approval
of the Health Department but
needed that of the Fire and Build
ing Department. He said he ex-
'pected those this afternoon.
After the decision, Mrs. Edward
B. Morris, speaking for the cit
liens group, declared:
1--WE accuse the police depart
|ment of laxity in interpreting the
regulations in regard to carnivalS
and of not complying with the re-
quirements."
She said the citizens association
had been unable to get a clear
ruling on what constituted the
necessary number of signatures on
a petition to allow the carnival.
Under the regulations, sponsors of
the carnival had to get permission
from a majority of the residents

With heavy workloads,

Agency officials say they will do
everything possible to see that
employees are given chance to
use all Of their 1852 annual leave
by June 80, 1858. The rider spe-
cifically instructs departments and
agencies to give employees every
chance to take all the leave.
But it's inevitable that inequi-
ties and hardships will be caused
by the rider which is part of the
1858 Independent Offices money
bill. Final approval by Congress
|of the rider is considered certain
The fact that Federal workers
will be denied the right to ac-
cumulate leave deprives them of
the only form of severance pay
protection they have against fu-
ture periods of unemployment.
Also, it deprives new employees
in Government from ever accu-
mulating enough leave to take ex-
tended vacations. This is partic-
ularly true in cases of employees
who come from other parts of the
country and have to use consid-
cradle amount of leave in order
to go back home. With new en-
Iployes receiving only 13 days a
year leave. this amount of vaca-
ton time is hardly sufficient for
an adequate trip.

PAST ACCUMULATION - Many
Government employees are con-
fused over the riders effect on
annual leave accumulated prior to
1852.
This past leave is safe. It may
be carried over from year to year,
provided that it does not exceed
the 60-day leave accumulation
maximum. In a few cases, the
leave accumulation maximum is
80 days.
OTHER LEAVE ANSWERS-Em-
ployes leaving the Government be-
tween now and June 80. 1858. will
be paid for all their unused 1852
annual leave. It's only after July
/, 1853, that employees will not be
credited or paid for their unused
1852 annual leave.
Sick leave is not affected by the
rider. Employees may carry over
from year to year any unused por-
ton of their 13-days-a-year sick
leave. There is no limit on the
amount of sick leave that Federal
workers may accumulate.
