President Hoover is given authority to make a sweeping reorganization of the entire Government service, including the various departments, bureaus and commissions, under a bill introduced in the House late yesterday by Representa- tive Dallinger, Republican, of Massa- chusetts. The President, who promised such a reorganization in his inaugural address, is allowed two years in which to abolish, transfer or reorganize the countless services throughout the Fed- eral administrative structure under the bill, but Representative Dallinger is agreeable to extension of the period if it is found desirable. Mr. Dallinger, who has conferred with the President on this subject, esti- mates that a saving of 30 to 40 per cent may be effected through reorganization and the eventual reductions in the num- ber of employes. Mr. Dallinger is a member of the House civil service com- mittee and has made a careful study of personnel matters, makes it clear, b propety b expended i bet- force may properly be expen: ter mnflvu to the more efficient force that is retetned in service. He hopes that the reorganization program will reduce to & minimum the present tre- mengom overturn in. Federal employ~ ment. There will be no action on this meas- ure at the present extra session, but Mr. Dallinger hepes to got action early in the regular session in December. In the meantime, President Hoover has announced that one of the principal duties of former Representative Newton, who is one of his:three secretaties, is to represent him in faking a study of the reorganization problem. o T.

P. missed by the Police Trial Board yes- terday, it was announced today. The complaining witness, Leon Brown, col- ored, made a statement at the trial, but ‘on advice of his attorney, John Burnett, declined to answer questions which might tend to incriminate him. Brown is being held on a charge of murder in connection with the shooting of two police informers some weeks ago. | Brown was unable to identify Comiskey as one of the men alleged to have han- dled him roughly after his arrest. | The board recommended that Pvt. L. C. Stevenson, colored, second pre- cinct, be dismissed from the force on conviction of conduct prejudicial to the good order and reputation of the force. The charge was based on Stevenson’s | alleged association with a married | woman after<he had been previously warned by the trial board about the matter. Pvt. R. C. Jackson, second precinct, was cleared of charges of conduct prej- udicial to the good order and reputa- tion of the force, lodged against him by Ora Scott Causby, a colored beauty culturist, when the complaining witness refused to testify at the trial. o R Eastern Star Card Party.
