In Falling From

A workman was injured thi:
morning in a fall from a 25-foot
air conditioning tower on top Of
the S. Kann Sons Co. depart
ment store building to the rooI
Of the building.
The man. Nick Gasparis. So
of 1924 Fourteenth street NV.
was taken to Emergency Hos.
pital with possible fractures Of
both legs, one arm and his skull
The hospital gave his condition
as undetermined pending X-ray
examination.
The man was one of two
employed by the French Paint.
ing and Decorating Co. They
were on the roof Of the building
shortly befote store. opening

ditioning tower.
The other worker went into
the store briefly. When he re-
turned. he told police. he saw
Mr. Gasparis stagger toward The
stairs. bleeding from the ears
Since there was no witness u

Postal Officials
Dispute Report
OF Excess Fund

Post ONCE Department officials
denied today that, even with the
$50 million cut made by the
House in its 1858 operating funds
1t would have more than 5000
million to spend than it had this
year.
The officials said some miscon-
ceptionS regarding this arose on
the House floor last week when
the departments money bill
came up for action.
The officials said the depart
ment actually will have SO mil
lion less next year in actual OPP
Grating expenses If the House
cuts are not restored by the
Senate. The department is urg-
ing the Senate to restore the
funds. declaring that otherwise
essential postal services to the
public will have to be postponed
or curtailed.
The misconception over the
additional 5000 million appro-
priation stems from the fact that
the department the next year
will have TO spend 1852 million
in expenses that it did not have
this year, officials said.
These expenses include Sl3l
million to the civil service re-
tirement fund as a result of the
new law requiring agencies tC
match employees 612 per cent
contribution, within-grade pro.
motions. an extra work day In
1858. etc.
In addition, the department
this year is seeking a $50 million
supplemental appropriation tx
windup the 1857 fiscal year
When all these figures are
tailed. the departments 1851
funds voted by the House come
to So million less than the actua
operating expenses for 1857, the
officials say.
