| PLAN NEARLY MADE| ONREORGANIZATION Roosevelt Program Expected to Be Ready by Early Next Week. President Roosevelt probably will have , his plan for governmental reorganization ready by the end of this week or at least by the early part of next week. ‘The Executive looks upon reorganiza- tion as the third step in his economy ' program, the first two steps being re- duction in salaries of Federal employes and reduction in veterans' benefits and allowances. It was made known at the White House today that the President has postponed reorganization until he could determine just what the savings would be from the veterans' and employes’ slashes and until some definite plan of Teorganization can be formulated. Building Policy Delayed. The matter of the public buildings program will not be taken up in the Teorganization plan, at least until after the departmental savings through mer- gers and eliminations have been dis- posed of. The administration already has ordered that no new contracts for public improvements be let. The order extends to building construction, inland waterways developments and to new general work not now under contract. It was requested by Lewis Douglas, director of the budget, pending the for- mation of a new Roosevelt policy. It is the present intention of the President to incorporate all this work in his general public works bill, which he will submit to Congress at this ses- sion. He intends to pay for this vast program through a bond issue that will spread the cost of the emergency period over a number of years rather than take the money from current receipts in these times. It has been intimated that the ad- ministration is considering not making | new contracts or selecting new sites un- | der the existing building construction program with a view to using the money for this purpose in his reforestation program. At the present time there are under contract 308 buildings to cost more than $300,000,000 and there is available for further construction work about $96,000,000. | Consolidations Planned. | In his reorganization it is known the President plans to bring about, as many consolidations as possible so-as to have activities of a related nafure under one directing head. s 1 All transportatiop activities will be| brought under one head, but, according to the White House, this will not elim- inate the present Interstate Commerce Commissien. This - grouping of transportation ; agencies will be set up in a bureau to be known as the Federal Transporta- tion Bureau and will include divisions ) for railroads, busses, trucks and pipe ; lines; telephone, telegraph and cable; Bhipping Board, barge lines and inter- coastal shipping; radio and commercial aviation. It is authoritatively known, too, that the President will abolish the offices of Assistant Secretary of War in charge of aviation and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy in charge of aviation. SIR JOHN SIM.ON LAUDS CONSTITUTION FOR INDIA By the Associated Press. LONDON, March 29.—Sir John Simon, foreign secretary, in the House of Com- mons yesterday called the proposed constitution for India one of the most important ducuments in history. Opinions expressed during debate ranged from modified approval to op- position. Col. J. C. Wedgwood, Laborite, said the propesal was “a cowardly abdica- tion” and attacked it as handing “the government in India over to the Indian princes and to a narrow class elected on an extremely limited franchise.” “Why is it,” Sir John asked, “that the Indian politician is so obsessed with the idea of parliamentary insti- tutions? It is because of us.” MUSIC BENEFIT CONCERT. "AN apdience which filled the ha'l of the Washington Club to overflow- ing turned out last evening to hear music of the time of Elizabeth, in the fourth of the series of concerts spon- sored by the Ten O'Clock Club for the relief of unemployed musicians. In a setting representing a room in a private home, the musicians, dressed in cos- tumes of the Tudor period, reproduced an evening of music in a family circle of that long passed era. The recital was arranged by Sade C. Styron. Assisting her were the Madri- gal Singers, under the direction of Mrs. John M. Sylvester; “Her Majesty’s Consort,” a string sextet composed of Mary P. Clements and Paul Brighten- burg, violinists; Helen Foster and Oscar Spencer, violinists; Marcel Ancher and Louis Potter, jr., cellists, and Helen Howison, soprano, and Caldgron Howe, regorder. & After a short introductory talk by Helen Fetter Cook regarding the im- portance of English music of that period, Miss Styron gave a detailed account of the various types of music and its place in the daily life of all classes. The program was made up of representative compositicns by Gibbons, Bennett, Byrd, Bull, Morley, Edwards and Nicholson, composers, *ho had achieved renown throughout the Europe of that time. Two sixteenth century dances, to- gether with “Pavan and Galliard,” by Gibbons, were played by the sextet, “Her Majesty’s Consort,” the stimngs blending well in the quaint harmonious tunes. e Madrigal Singers, com- posed of Elizabeth Waters and Elizabeth Copping, first sopranos; Elsie Graham, Mrs, Erbin Thomas, second sopranos; Edward Simpson and George Roth. tenors, and Benjamin Morrison and Major Lee Tillotson, basses, dressed in attractive costumes, sat about a table and sang, unaccompanied, to the direction of ~Mrs. Sylvester. The anonymous “Carol, Lullay, Thou Little Tiny Child” and Byrd's “Canon, Hey Ho, to the Greenwood Let Us Go” were charming examples of the madrigal which mt;ved the audience to interrupt with applause. Miss I’spzymn. who is an authority on ancient music, played four numbers on the clavichord, finishing with “Bull's Goodnighte,” by the composer Bull The soft, tinkling sqund of the ancient instrument was most effective in the candlelit surroundings, and Miss Styron, in a rose-colored costume, made a par- ticularly attractive picture. To a string quartet accompaniment played by Mr. Brightenberg, Miss Clem- ents, Mrs. Foster and Mr. Ancher, Helen Howison sang two songs by Nicholson, #“John Quoth Joan” and “The Cuckoo,” and “Ah, Silly Poor Joas,” anonymous. The beautiful quality of Miss Howison's volce was an exquisite medium for these simple melodies and her un- affected manner of singing them em- phasized their charm more fully. Four traditional tunes for the were skillfully played by Calderon Howe and enthusiastically applauded. r'l‘he prs- gram finished with a group of songs by the Madrigal Singers, the last number, “An Earthly Tree, a Heavenly Fruit,” by Byrd, was accompanied by the string quartet.

Now, therefore, pursuant to the au- thority so vested in me, I hereby an- nounce: First, that such index figures are— (A) 171.0 for the six months’ period Pnginz June 30, 1928, the base period, (B) 133.9 for the six months’ period ending December 31, 1932; Second, that the cost of living index for the six months’ period ending De- cember 31, 1932, is 21.7 per centum lower than the cost of living index for the base period; and Third, that this per centum being in excess of the maximum per centum pre- scribed by section 3 (B), the percent- age of reduction applicable under sec- tion 2 (B), in determining the compen- sation of officers and employes to be paid during the period from April 1, 1933, to June 30, 1933, inclusive, is 15 per centum. ROOSEVELT ORDERS 15 PER CENT SLASH IN FEDERAL WAGES (Continued Prom First Page.) costs between 1932 and 1928 had been completed, Mr. Roosevelt would go ahead with economy plans. ‘The pay cut is only the first step in reducing the expenses of the Govern- ment with a view to balancing the budget and lowering the tax burden. The next move will be the slashing of veterans’ benefits and pensions. The necessary ordcrs for this are anticfpated in the next few days, and by the exer- cise of his new powers it is expected that the President will bring about a saving of $500,000,000 in veterans’ costs. In compliance with the economy act, Mr. Roosevelt directed a study of the living costs so as to arrive at an index figure upon which to base the flat cut. Therefore, the pay cut order is based on the cost of living during the last six months of 1932 as compared with, the last six months of 1928. This study of costs was made by the Labor Department and the report was de- livered to the President two days ago. Under the economy act, the President was authorized to reduce salaries by the amount of difference between the two sets of index, figures, but not to slash more than 15 per cent. According to Mr. Roosevelt’s order, the index figure for the 1928 period was found to be 171, and for the 1932 period, 133.9. This difference indicated that 1932 living costs had declined 21.7 per cent below the standard of 1928. Expected to Cut Own Pay. Because the Constitution prohibits applying this pay cut to the salary of the President, it is understood Mr. Roosevelt will take a voluntary cut himself. When former President Hoover put into effect the economy act during his administration, he took a personal cut of 20 per cent in his pay. It_was estimated the savings under the Roosevelt economy program will to- tal between $500,000,000 and $600,000,- 000, the bulk of which will come from the veterans’ benefits. The saving un- der the Hoover economy act through the medium of the payless furloughs was estimated at $84,000,000. This was con- fined to salaries and did not apply to enlisted men of the Army and Navy and those civilian employes receiving less than $1,000 a year. It did not touch the veterans’ benefits. The President’s order was issued after a conference with Lewis Douglas, direc- tor of the budget, who had personally worked out the details of the economy program, and after discussing the mat- ter with cabinet members at a meeting yesterday afternoon.

By the Associated Press. Regulations for reducing veterans’ compensation have been prepared, but | will not be promulgated until repre- | sentatives of veterans' organizations have looked them over and made known their views. ‘This action has been taken under provisions of the emergency economy act, which authorized the President to cut- veterans’ benefits as well as the salaries of Government employes. The regulations now are at the of-| fice of Lewis Douglis, the budget dl-’ rector, where they are available to vet- erans’ organizations. B FOR ROAD LACK FUNDS Special Dispatch to The Star. RICHMOND, Va., March 29.—Due to the lack of funds, nothing will be done this year toward completing the new road,” extending from Culpeper -to Brandy along Route 32, according to Henry G. Shirley, State highway com- missioner. The new road, he pointed out, had almost been completed when work was halted by a dispute over the value of the right of way. SCHOOLS STRICKEN FROM "34 BUDGET Development Held by Bureau Three Times Faster Than Population Increase. ‘The Budget Bureau struck out every school building and school site item from the 1934 budget because school building in the District has advanced three times mcre rapidly than the in- crease in the school population itsel it was revealed today by Mrs. Leslie ‘Wright, chairman of the Building Com- mittee of the Alice Deal Junior High | citizens would not be heard by the School Home and School Association. Mrs. Wright, a militant supporter of ! trict appropriation bill, the Northwest District schools, and a group of home and school and parent-teacher associa- tion heads of Northwest Washington are demanding hearing by the House in their efforts to restore at least some of the eliminated building items. Not- able among these is the $475,000 which would permit the beginning of con- struction of the $1,250,000 Woodrow Wilson High School in the Fort Reno section of Chevy Chase. Mrs. Wright and the other citizens interested in school construction are making personal demands at the Cap- itol for a hearing. They were told this morning, however, by the clerk of the House Appropriations Committee that probably no citizens would be heard by the House. Mrs. Wright advised the Home and School and Parent-Teacher Associa- tions’ officers, who met at her home this morning, that an authority ex- tremely close to the White House had told her the school building items were eliminated because the administration was convinced the school population had fallen way short of the school building activity which had been pro- moted here in recent years. Those in Attendance. ‘The meeting in Mrs. Wright's Forest Hills home was attended by Dr. 8. B. Fracker, president of the Alice Deal Junior High School Home and School Association; Mrs. M. O. Lorenz, presi- dent of the Phoebe A. Hearst School Home and School Association; Mrs. R. C. Bowker, president of the Janney Parent-Teacher Association, and Wal- ter H. Rastall, president of the Western High School Home and School Associa- tion. Plans were laid to answer the assumption of the administration's Budget Bureau that the schools were “overbuilding.” It was shown that the Woodrow Wil- son High School is sorely needed to re- lieve Western High School, which yes- terday had an enrollment of 1,800 chil- dren, 68 of whom dre post-graduates who have been unable to obtain employ- ment. In 1928-29 this school's enroll- ment was 1,543, while the school's ca- acity is nearly 1500 by using every facility every hour of the day. Thus Western High School is confronted with the necessity, probably next September, of going on a double-shift program, with teachers working longer days while stu- dents receive an abreviated program of instruction. Gordon High Ratio. ‘The Gordon Junior High School, which had an enrollment of 510 in 1929, now has 1,276 on its rolls, while in 1931 it had only 584. The group seeking hearings will show the members of the House that while school house construction apparently is going forward at a more rapid pace than the school population, the accel- eration has been due to efforts of the District to catch u on the accumulated shortage of school house accommoda- tions which burdened thee school sys- tem so heavily prior to the Five-year School Building Program act in 1925. The building which has gone on since then has been in line with that pro- gram and in virtually no instance took into account the normal increase of Tacky Social Is Planned. GAITHERSBURG.

The action of the Budget Bureau in cutting down the estimates for work to be done on the highways, bridges and in the water service, leaving un- expended surpluses in the gasoline tax and Water Department funds, was de- plored today by Senator Copeland of New York. Ile is a member of the subcommittee that handles District ap- propriation bills. “It is a great pity that these activi- tles have been cut down at a time when the Government s appropriating millions of dollars in an effort to re- lieve unemployment throughout the | country.” Senator Copeland said, “espe- cially since these special funds in the District cannot be used for any other “—better close your old umbrella Clothes—STEP OUT in the crisp, new shades of Spring!! 1933. DISTRICT TAX CUT FAVORED BY KING Senate Committee Chafinnam Would Offset Expected D. C. Surplus. Chairman Kiffg of the Senate Dis- trict Committee, believes the reasonable thing to do would be to reduce District taxation if the local appropriation bill for the next fiscal year is held down in a way that would leave a large sur- plus of Distriet tax money. Senator King, who also is a member of the Subcommittee on District appro- priations, announced he has requested District Auditor Donovan and District Aas?wr Richards to prepare a state- ment, showing present District revenue collections and what the probable sur- plus might be under the budget as now proj b “Of course, the city ought, to have some margin in revenue collections, but I see no reason for collecting a large surplus over and above appropriation re- quirements,” Senator King said. “And if it appears that the amount to be appro- priated for next year will leave a large surplus, the reasonable thing would be to reduce taxes.” ‘The Senator said he would want to consider in this connection whether present revenues in excess of what is reasonably required.
