Disarmament of all factions followed, save that of Sandino. On the pretext that he needed arms to protect his followers while passing through the wild country to the north, Sandino and his men kept their guns, but instead of surrendering them when they reached their native mountains, they began an organized attack on the Moncada government and the Marines.

Bandit bearding was an old story with him, for he stole into the camp of the noted Haitian bandit, Charlemagne Peralte, on the night of October 31, 1919, and shot the outlaw dead. Then, on the night of March 31, 1920, Lieut. Hanneken boldly went into the camp of Osiris Joseph, notorious bandit of Northern Haiti, and shot and killed him.

Filing & minority report on the Lehlbach pay bill which was recently reported out favorably by the House civil service committee, Representative Carl G. Bachman of West Virginia, a member of the committee, yesterday branded the Lehlbach measure as “a demotion bill and not a bill to increase salaries.” He objected fo both sections of the bill, but more particularly to that which would give the Personnel Classification Board more power, which he declared would result in many demotions throughout the Government of some of the most valued employes. Discussing the section of the Lehl- bach measure which adds a step to the top of the grades to make the number of steps the same as they were in the original classification act before the Welch act cut the number from seven to six, Mr. Bachman declared there had been omitted a mandatory clause to make promotions necessary, and that the bill, therefore, would not give the promotions to employes which were | promised by sponsors of the bill. An amendment to the section which added the extra grade should have been put on, he explained, if it is intended to give promotions to employes. In the Brookhart bill, introduced in the Sen- ate, there is a mandatory clause pro- viding that heads of departments shall promote the employes who failled to receive an increase in salary the equivalent of two -ups, or salary rates, under the Welck: act. Says McCarl Not to Blame. Mr. Bachman also declares that blame for any inequalities for adminis= tration of the Welch act rests with the language of the act, and Congress, an not with Controller General uccnl who has been I‘hll'%!z l‘:ond by Chair- man Lehlbach for terpretation of b | Coritcaing. g -granting of vhn he claims is additional power to the Per- sonnel Classification Bo‘m never giv- en in the original classification act, the minority report declared “that if these new powers and functions were put into effect by the board there is no ques- tion but that there will result wholesale reductions in present salary rates to a large number of the Government’s most efficient, most experienced and most essential employes in the ther (pro- fessional, scientific and administrative) grades, as well as possma ummu Te- ductions to the employes in the lower g::dk ‘These employes r,omtmlu the bone of the Government struc- ture. nhsllwohndnwrorum il the i Fas for s e e for lu obtaining of small additional !ncrm to certain of the employes, the minority tinued, the measure "u.-tllllly gives no certain increase to any, undoubtedly will result in demotlanl for a great mlny 1t thus can be termed : Nd'e‘x:wtlon and not a bill to in- Board's Power Explained. muy objecting to enactment of the easure '&h “-I “additional” :om ror the board, the minority report de- clared that t‘l}f matter of “ex'.enfll.ng enhrm or in any way dufia umt luncuom t.lu such nr-mmna tmgort th.lt it nwul Puot behtuked on a bill Whlflhrlll.l 10: mal revision of rates, mm be made a mfl separate legislation so that ample time STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

HOUSE IS PUZZLED BY NORMAN VISIT Effort Is Started to Learn His Connection With Spec- ulation Warning. By the Assoclated Press. An effort was started yesterday in the House to determine whether there was any connection between the visit here of Sir Montagu Norman, governor of the Bank of England, and the issuance by the Federal Reserve Board of its un- precedented warning against excessife use of brokers' loans for speculative purposes. Representative Black, Democrat, of New York introduced a resolution ask- ing the board to inform the House| gq;o whether it conferred with the British bank governor.

His ruling evidently did not meet with the approval of the Personnel Classification Board, nor did it satisfy those employes who, under the ruling, were advanced only one salary step instead of two, this situa- tion being brought about because there was a reduction of steps in the grades in the Welch act from seven to six. |In other words, there were seven lup‘ in certain grades under the original classification act of 1923, and t.he Welch act reduced these steps to six. Amendment Is (Jr(ed. “From a legal point of view, the con- troller general made the only ruling with respect to the administrative pro- vision of the Welch act that was poc- i sible for him to make according to the provisions of this act.
