Q. O. P. Senators Halt
Teacher Pay Boost OK

Senate Republicans today
blocked passage of a rs per
cent salary increase for District
school teachers, serving notice
that Democrats will have to
fight for clearance.
Pay legislation moved swiftly
to the floor from the Senate
District Committee last week.
The Democratic majority hoped
to send the pay bill. along with
a police-f1re pay raise as yet
unreported, through Congress
on the tail of legislation now
at the White House asking the
same percentage salary boost
| for Federal and District classi-
f1ed employees:
The President is expected to
veto the Federal pay bill.
Protecting President
Republicans in Congress want
to prevent embarrassment for
the President, who presumably
would take the same position
on District pay legislation.
A partisan dispute also
erupted on the Senate floor
over a Theodore Roosevelt me-
mortal authorization, held up
by Democrats. and a Woodrow
Wilson memorial bill allowed to
pass by Republicans.

ness of the proposal. We've

Of the plan" he said. Can the
proposal be equated with the

Proposed Low
At Hearing
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG
star stan Writer


Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin testified today that
the Commissioners believe that
bonding on home improvement
contractors and statesmen is
"a matter of critical impor-
tance to the community"
He made the statement SIS
Representative Dowdy, Demo-
crat of Texas. opened hearings
before a House District sub
committee on legislation to re-
quire bonds Of home improve
ment officials and to offer other
projections to homeowners.
When the hearing recessed,
to be resumed at 10 am. to-
morrow. Mr.. Dowdy said he
hoped to get the measure be-
fore the full committee by the
end Of the week.
Timing Questioned
When Commissioner Nc
Laughlin testified that the press
had brought unscrupulous prac-
tices of home improvement con-
tractors to the attention of the
Commissioners. several sub
committee members said they
had been aware of these prac-
tices for some years and
wanted to know why the Com
missioners had not acted
earlier.
Mr.. Mclaughlin replied that
proposals had been made previ-
ously to license and bond home
improvement contractors. but it
was considered costly to the
District. He added that the
Department of Licenses and In
spection nov says the situa-
ton is serious enough for us
to go ahead with it."
Several questions were raised
about the section of the pro-
posed legislation which would
prevent subcontractorS from
asserting mechanics liens
against homeowners who had
already paid the prime con-
tractor for the work.
SubcontractOrs' Protection
Representative Broyhill, Re-
publican of Virginia, said he
would support the legislation
only with the clear understand ,
ing that the subcontractors too ,
would be protected against un-
scrupulous contractors. Mr.. ,
Dowdy also said he was troubled ,
by the question OF Subcon-
tractors not getting paid.
Commissioner Mclaughlin
hastily conferred with Engi-
neer Commissioner A. c. +,
yelling, who also attended the
hearing. and told the subcom- ,
mittee that the Commissioners i,
agreed that the bonding provi- :
sion Of the bill would insure ,
protection for subcontractors .
and laborers as well as for :
homeowners. ,
Assistant Corporation Coun- {
sci Robert Kneipp, explaining {
the amendments offered by the
C Commissioners, said that the
Commissioners wanted to in
clude statesmen as well as con-
tractors in the bonding re- Z
quirement AID also wanted the
bill broad enough to cover all ,
the types Of home improve /
ment work in need Of regula- $
tion.

The acting president OF
George Washington University,

the football team and coaching
staff a big pat on the back for
its upset 20-6 victory over the

Colclough made an unex-

Each new team will be per-
mitted to draft two players
from the minors, but no more
than one from any particular
club, at the minor league meet
ings in Louisville November 28.
The new teams will draft after
the present major league clubs

from the minors at $25, 900 a
player.
Prick pointed out that seven
of the 16 present teams have
the full complement Of 20
players on their rosters and
cannot draft. That would give
the new teams a crack at some
of the better minor league
talent.
