In its report of the Saturday meet- ing the term “ez-soldiers” was used by The Star, but the more accurate designation—in keeping with the 8pirit of the federation action—would have been “retired Army officers,” or “military officers.” The text of the Federation’s letter Jollows in full: To the Editor of The Star: One page B-4 of Sunday's Star an article was published, headed “Soldiers for D. C. Positions,” followed by the statement: “The Feclenuon of Citizens’ Associa- tions last night reaffirmed its position against the nomlnuum of ex-soldiers to clvlu.n posts in the District govern- ment. Sald article is so tly ( h not intentionally) ufl?flr‘" and Tnm. that you are hereby requested to make retraction thereof in your columns, in addition to publishing this letter. Federation Acted on Bill. On February 6, 1932, the federation took action against Senate bill 8 for extension of the powers of the District Cunm]ulunen, the federation stating: “Legislative power should not be con- ferred, in time of peace, upon a composed chiefly, or entirely, of military members, to deal with purely civil or municipal affairs; so that, if any such power were to be conferred upon the present District Commissioners, an en- tire change in personnel would be essen- tial, substituting in their places persons in civil life having & broad grasp of public affairs and a thorough ac- quaintance with the past history and existing laws and ordinances in force in the District of Columbia.” Also, on sald February 6, 1932, the federation expressed its disapproval of the action of the District Commission- ers in reorganizing the Engineer De- plrtmem without advance public in- formation or opportunity for citizenry advice, the federation stating: “Attention is invited to the ever in- creasing predominance in our’ munici- pal government of military officers, ac- tive and retired, who seem naturally indisposed to tlve the civilian viewpoint very much consideration. In the case of the Zoning Commission, which is in the control of military members, we now have pending an effort by it to assume the extraordinary, and ob- viously illegal, power of excusing, from time to time, particular persons from the necessity of obeying the zoning rules, which continue to apply to their neighbors. In the case of the Public Utilities Commission, which is com- posed of a retired Army officer, an ac- tive Army officer, and but one civilian member, it is well known that it has recently declined to respect either the resolution of this federation or the unanimous resolution of the House of Representatives regarding the taxicab situation. In the case of the District of Columbia Board of Commissioners which is composed entirely of military members, one a retired Army officer, another an active Army officer, and the third a former National Guard officer of considerable military. training, we have the instant case of a proposed re- organization of the entire Engineer Final Wind-Up 27 ? - SALE Hurry, before you miss Washington’s biggest values! $1 All-Silk TIES..

No one who is at all familiar with this federation, lndl Surely. it is the exception rather Lhm the rule that a veteran becomes gov- erned by a military attitude in clvu lt- Mn and the exception is lim- ted to those who have made the military their main business in life.” ‘Thereafter, on March 19, 1932, the federation declared its opposition to the growing tendency to uti important civilian positions in the District gov- ernment to enable retired Army officers to enjoy double salaries while other worthy persons are unable to obtain & single salary, the federation stating: “Your committee believes that some- thing should be done, and as soon as possible, to put an end to the growing tendency to fill important civil posi- tions in the District government with retired Army officers, who are thereby enjoying a double salary while other worthy persons are being deprived of the office, and when such other persons could serve more acceptably by reason of not having made the military their main business in life, producing a mili- tary attitude in civil affairs.” Asked Copy for New President. At last Saturday's meeting of the federation Delegate Clayton made a mo- body | tion that the new President of the United States be furnished with a copy of the resolutions heretofore adopted by | tee, the federation with respect to military officers (not ex-soldiers) being ap- pointed to the important civilian posts in the District government. It is impossible to exaggerate the seriousness of The Star’s article of yes- terday, to the effect that the federation is opposed to, or has discriminated against the ex-soldiers of our country. Very respectfully, J. G. YADEN, President, Federation of Citizens’ Associations. —_— TODAY'S AMUSEMENTS. National—Paul Muni in “Counsellor- at-Law,” at 8:20 pm.
