SEES INILSTCE TOU.S ENPLOVES Brookhart Urges Creating Court of Appeals to Consider Dismissal Charges. Establishment of a “court of appeals” before which discharged Government employes might take their cases in seeking reinstatement was urged by Senator Brookhart, Republican, of Iowa, in an address last night to the Takoma Park Citizens' Assoclation, meeting in ‘Takoma Library. Employes are entitled to such a me- dium, the speaker declared, adding if they had it, fewer would be put out of their jobs. Senator Brookhart referred to one Becretary of the Treasury who, he said, ‘was never known to refuse to give any of his employes an opportunity to pre- sent their side of the case. Farm relief and other legislative topics also were touched on by the speaker. Association Officers Nominated. ‘The nominating committee present- ed the following nominees for the en- suing year: President, John Walker; first vice president, Herbert Walton Rut- ledge; second vice president. Mrs. Al- cena Lamond; secretary, Daniel M. Goodacre; treasurer, Mrs. Mary L. White, and delegates to the Federation of Citizens’ Associations, John Walker and Burt W. Andrews. The nominat- ing committee was composed of Walter Irey, Chester C. Waters and Dr. Guy N. Clinton. Councilman John R. Adams of the ‘Takoma Park. Md. town council ad- dressed the association relative to the proposed “clean-up week” to be inaug- urated at an early date. Dr. Albert L. Barrows, chairman of the health com- mittee, was appointed as the represent- ative of the association to attend a joint meeting tonight of all of the civic and clubs in Takoma Park.

ITEM OF $3,000,000 FOR SCHOOLS URGED Building Fund Suggested by Cham- ber Committee for Inclusion in 1931 D. C. Budget. Inclusion of an item of $3,000,000 for school buildings in the 1931 budget, now being formulated for considera- tion of the District Commissioners, pro- vided this figure would not run the total school estimates above one-third of the total budget, was approved yes- terday by the public schools committee of the Washington Chamber of Com- merce. This action was taken after discus- slon of school needs conducted by Charles H. Le Fevre, chairman, ‘The committee also adopted a reso- lution urging that the school budget be forwarded intact by the city heads to the Bureau of the Budget as it is drawn by the Board of Education. This is in line with the contention of school officials in the matter of handling the school estimates which has caused some controversy with city officials. Hereto- fore the Commissioners have made changes in the school estimates in in- cluding them as a part, of the total Dis- trict budget. Members of the committee expressea regret at the failure at the last Con- gress of the bill providing for a $5,000,000 school _buildi program, which would supplement the present five-year program. .
