Cleanup OF Govt Corruption
By JACK ADAMS

WASHINGTON Up - Flanked by
an array & new top assistants,
Atty. Gen. James P. McGranery
moved forward on a number OF
fronts today in his battle to clean
up any corruption in the federal
government.
McGranery assembled a news
conference to disclose a number
of shifts in his chief assistants and
to announce that:
1. His department is investigat-
inR alleged job sales in the Chicago
Postoffice-second largest in the
country-reputedly at $500 per
throw. McGranery said sit is only
a question of who and how many
we are going to indict."
Z. He has ordered grand jury

auction of the governments 1914
million dollar St. Johns River
shipyard at Jacksonville, Fla, sold
az surplus to the Tampa Shipbuild-

A House committee investigating
the Justice Department said ale
cations of bribery and collusion in
the shipyard case were referred
70 the department six years ago
when Supreme Court Justice Tom
C. Clark was attorney general
but that no action resulted.
McGranery told his news con-
ference that "the matter should
have been Investigated more thor
oughly and should have been pre-
sented to a grand jury then"
The attorney general also said
he has just signed a $39, 900 con-
tract with the private New York
auditing firm of Arthur Young and
Co. to check the books of the alien
property custodian, long under fire
by Republican senator's.
The attorney general called his

ery's recommendations. They are:

NJ, attorney never before associ-
ated with government, as deputy

division.
McGranery said he had asked
James M. McInerney, assistant at
torney general in charge of crimi-
nal prosecutions since 1850, to shift
over to the top post in the lands
division. Until recently, this divis-
ion was headed by william Amory

The thousand and one details,
circumstances, backgrounds, etc.
which form the backdrop of
years performance in the East
Cleveland Police Department can
never be told in the figures of the
annual report. The report is only
the resultant facts which add up
to so many arrests, so many ju-
veniles appearing, so many sem
tences and so much money collected.
Only those close to the department
can really appreciate the report.
But pretty good understanding
of the busy hours put in by the
department can be CLEANED by the
public from the official statement,
released today.

On Wednesday, May q, 1852
eighteen members of the junior
commercial class, accompanied by
their teacher, Mrs. Smack, visited
the Latex offices in Smyrna. Mr.
Eugene Atkins and Mr.. William
Brady conducted the tour of the
offices and plant.
The first section of the building
which we visited was occupied by
the stenographic pool. In this room
the electric machines were demon
strated, such as typewriters, Edi-
phone and Dictaphone.
Adjoining the stenographic pool
was the filing room. Here we saw
the procedure followed when filing
correspondence. In this depart
ment all the current correspond
ence is handled, and when these
materials become a year old, they
are transferred to the record room.
There is cafeteria in this plant
which is capable of accommodating
the personnel.
In the adjoining room to the
cafeteria there were several rows
of desks where the employees
handled the advertising materials.
The next section of the building
was the plant where the patterns
for their products were cut. Here,
also, the patterns were packed to
be sent to the Dover plant to be
assembled.
We should like to thank Mr.. At

able tour. 1t enabled those who
