TAKEN (id WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—(Spec- ial Correspondence)—The bill to | provide vacations for Government | employees and the bill to standard- ize sick leave and extend it to all Government employees, both, of . which passed the House on August 8, 1935, passed the Senate today with certain amendments. ‘The bill providing vacations wm become effective July 1, 1936, as amended. Briefly this bill provides| that employees of the Government generally shall be entitled to 26 |days annual leave each calendar | year, exclusive of Sundays and holi- days. This leave may be accumulat- ed through any number of years, not to exceed a total accumulation of 60 days in unused leave. Tem- | porary employees, exceph those en- |gaged on construction work at hourly rates, are entitled to this leave at the rate of two and one- half days per month. The bill standardizing sick leave, provides for cumulative sick leave at the rate of one and one-fourth days per month, not exceeding 60 | days. Employees of the Post Office De- partment are excluded from the provisions of both of the bills. ‘These bills will probably not go to conference, for it is understood |that the House members will insist |upon a greater cumulative period | than 60 days annual leave as pro- |vided by the Senate amendment. | | Leather, string, chamcic and felt are a new Paris recipe for chie in acceszory ensembles, make the color scheme.
