Nobody lost his head, not evan

were the first to be put aboard
the lifeboats.
After that We threw every
thing overheard which would

planks. Then the men began
jumping overheard, all in per-

Two doctors aboard the troop

the effects of smoke or water.
Almost within sight of the
burning ship they had left. 200
soldiers sailed this morning

the scene plucked the survivors
from the sea and from lifeboats

Sea Extraordinarily Calm.
The rescue was made possible
by an extraordinarily calm sea.
Men swan directly from the
burning ship to rescue ships

The captain of the Norwegian

seen such calm and everything
went off as though the passen-

p o p ais.
Representative Murray of Ten
nessee, tn eranking minority
member, also Is expected to back
the pay plan.
Some top Republicans on the
committee. including Represen-
tatives Hagen of Minnesota,
Withrow of Wisconsin, and Cor
bett of Pennsylvania, feel that
the administrations pay propos-
ais are not adequate. A number
of Democratic members have ex-
pressed similar views, including
Representative Rhodes Of Penn
sylvania, Moss of California, and
Morrison of Louisiana.
Some of them have disclosed
that they will have statistics with
which to confront administra-
ton officials to support their
position that Government work.
ers are entitled to substantial
pay boost. These members say
Bureau of Labor Statistics fig
ures show that the average SAL
airy of Government classified
employees has Jagged more than
% per cent behind the rise in the
cost of living.
The administrations views will
be given by Civil Service Com
mission Chairman Philip Young
From all indications Mr.. Young
will be subjected to questioning
that may take up the greater
part of the week.
Meanwhile. the AFL National
Association of Letter Carriers and
the American Federation of Gov
eminent Employees have attacked
big business" for seeking to kill
substantial Government pay
raise this year.
The unions charged that the
National Association of Manu-
facturers has asked its member
ship to write to members of Con-
gress indorsing the administra-
tons pay plans on the grounds
that a substantial Federal pay
boost would result in similar de-
mands from labor unions in pri-
vate industry.
PERFORMANCE RATINGS
Representative Moss. Democrat.
of California. a member of the
House Civil Service subcommit-
tee investigating the Govern
ment's personnel system. has
advocated abolishing the Govern
ment employe performance rating
system.
Mr.. Moss made his views
known in closed session of the
subcommittee which has been
considering the addition of a
fourth rating of very good" or
excellent" to the present rating
system of unsatisfactory" sat
isfactory," and outstanding
Mr.. Moss said he felt the entire
performance rating system should
be strapped. His experience with
the California State civil service
system convinced him that for
NAL ratings of employees are not
only useless but costly and detri-
mental to morale, Mr.. Moss de-
clared.

Basie Landseaping
Plan Is Necessary

A sound requirement for many
new, as well as old home owners
is a basic landscaping plan which
can be used to guide the planting
of the property from year TO year,
according to the American Asso-
citation of Nurserymen. With a
basic plan the home owner doesn't
have to plant all at once unless he
wishes to. He can purchase plants
piecemeal and when the landscap-
ing is finished he will have an art
istic planting with excellent de-
sign.
In the long run a saving usual
ly can be made by calling in an
experienced landscape nursery
man to lay out the plan. The
landscape nurseryman doesn't look
at a property in terms of so many
plants as an ameteur is likely to
do. He considers the topography
of the land, and considers the
planting in terms of artistic de-
sign that will fit well in it's sur
rOundings, providing plenty of
space for pleasant outdoor living
or privacy, or whatever else may
be desired in addition to the foun-
dation planting. He can tell wheth-
er your soil is suitable or needs
to be enriched for various types
of plants, or he can select plants
that adapt themselves readily to
your particular soil. He will select
plants suitable to your type of
architecture, such as low and slow
growing plants for the One-story
house.
Many Older-hOme owners have
OvergrOWn foundation paintings
that in some cases should be re-
moved and replanted with slow
growing and more desirable shrubs
that have been developed in recent
years. There is a far more desir-
able list of shrubs available today
than existed twenty years ago, and
there are many developments in
home building, such as picture
windows, which require a pleasing
all-year view.
