EXEMPTION ASKED FOR LOW SALARIES Dolan Asks Roosevelt Inter- view to Discuss Postal Substitutes. A plea for exemption of substitute postal employes from the 15 per cent wage cut has been forwarded to Louis McH. Howe, secretary to President Roosevelt, by Thomas F. Dolan, president of the United National Association of Post Office Clerks, who asks for a personal interview with the President to press this cause. Mr. Dolan also urges that a smaller reduction be applied against the pay of those workers receiving more than $1,000 and'less than $2,500 an- nually. The letter, made public today, says: “Even under normal conditions, as they have prevailed for the last six or eight years, the substitute employes, many of them heads of familles and dependent solely upon their in- come from ooJ)olt office work to maintain a livelih find it difficult to exist, even by the most frugal standards. The u:ndty of employment, coupled with the 815 per cent reduction which pre- vails up to April 1, 1933, causes untold financial em] nt and hardship to_these neglected Federal employes.” Dolan also has written Controller General McCarl testing the ruling that bars a refund to any worker who has taken more legislative furlough than the 18 days required up to April 1, and has been subjected to a corre- sponding pay deduction. Asking for reconsideration, he says “While it is true that the time used was equivalent to the deductions, they were under the assumption that, as the prior furlough law necessitated a total of 24 furlough days, it was advisable, in many cases, to dispose of the entire furlough matter as soon as possible. In effect, if a favorable ruling is not forth- coming, the employes inyvolved would be penalized at the rate of 2315 per cent for the quarter ending June 30, 1933, instead of 15 per cent, which applies to all other employes who were affected by only 18 furlough days or, if for more, are subject to a refund adjustment.” (Mr. McCarl held a refund could be made if the pay had been deducted and REDS SHIFT QUARTERS FROM MONTEVIDEO| Documents Seized in Chilean Raids THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, | dent Curtis (seated). - D.

FORDNEY watched the deft fingers of the police surgeon’s assistant as he un- buttoned the man's vest and stripped him to the waist. In another moment the body was ready for Dr. Lyman's examination. The man had been brought into the morgue with his face battered beyond recogni- tion. There was a deep knife wound in the heart, below it,in the pit of the stomach, through the right shoulder from the back and still another direct- ly between the shoulder blades. The iron gray hair was matted with blood. The label had been torn from the brown suit, but in spite of the two slashes in the back of the coat and blood stains there was no mistaking the excellent qual- @yfl-nd tailoring. A = o weapon was found near the scene of - the crime. The underbrush was trampled and the dried leaves were spattered with blood. One stab through the left breast pocket of the vest had cut a business card in two. Though blood-stained, the name Stanley Thorndale, attorney, was plainly discerrfble. The qther had struck a button before entering the bod! Ty appeared to be the motive, as Pbrdney discovered nothing else in the pockets but a cheap Ingersoll watch and a railroad hat check. “Well, Kelley,” he remarked after the clothing had been identified as that of ‘Thorndale, who had recently taken out & $50,000 life insurance with double indemnity clause, “looks as if some one had tried to plant a body on us.” “You're right,” agreed Kelley, “the murderer though made one bad mistake —probably more!” KELLEY WAS RIGHT. WHY? Perhaps you have a story or problem you would like to submit to Prof. Fordney. 1If so send it to him, care of this paper. He will be delighted to receive it. (For solution see page A-5.)

ROME, April 3.—United States dol- lars from funds of the Veterans’ Bureau in Washington have afforded a $150,- 000 annual profit for a group of so- called brokers who trade in checks sent to disabled ex-service men of Italian origin now livirg in Italy. ‘The total amaunt of the checks sent to Italy yearly is $2,000,000, and about half these remittances go to Italo- Americans living in country districts, to a large extent among the Apen- nine mountains of Abruzzi, Campania, Apulia, Basilicata and Calabria.

They bring the checks back to Rome and Naples and cash them at an aver- age of 19.50 to the dollar. Their profit is 250 to 3.50 lire on the dollar, or 12% cents to 18 cents.

DOLLY GANN TELLS OF HER MARRIAGE = |Curtis’ Sister Says She Was| peies Glad to Have a Democrat in the Family. This is the second of a series 6f dgily articles in which Mrs. Dolly Gann, sister of Charles Curtis, Vice President in the Hoover administra- tion, is giving reminiscences of her interesting ezperiences in politics and society in Washington. BY DOLLY GANN. While I was in Kansas in 1911 friends told me they wanted me to meet a friend of theirs in Washington, Edward Everett Gann, an attorney for the Inter- state Commerce Commission. They said they would ask him to call on me as soon as I returned to the Capital, and they hoped I would like him! I did. I married him. I had forgotten his name when he telephoned to ask if he might come to see me, explaining that he had heard from our mutual acquaintances. “Come around Friday evening,” I said, and later I told my sister-in-law about it. “But we are going to dinner with Senator” and Mrs. Bourne on Friday,” she said. I was in a predicament. I had not heard the young man's name on the ulepl;x)!' did not know where he lived d_forgotten where he had his office. The only way out was tele- gram to Topeka. The reply arrived with his name and address, and I im- mediately called him up. He was un- commonly polite. I learned afterward |was that he was impressed by my telegraphic inquiries in Topeka and appreciative of my failure to lét him cool his heels at our house while I was absent. In due course he came to see me. He did not know many young women, so on each of his succeeding visits I in- vited a girl to meet him. Thllcofl- tinued weeks, until one evening he caught me alone. “What's the idea,” he asked, “in having somebody else here Jevery time I come? I want to see you.” I no longer went in search of an un- welcome third. We got along well to- gether from that day. I discovered meanwhile that he was a Democrat! He went West to see me in 1914, when I was working in Brother Charles’ Topeka headquarters. This Kentucky Democrat was an interested onlooker in the Kansas Republican campaign, | te! could take in our partisan activities. I was in a position to see my Demo- cratic visitor at intervals between work- ing hours. Politics might interfere with, but could not prevent t.ha in- evitable course of courtship. married in Topeka, June 12, 1915. After a short honeymoon we hastened to Washington. My husband and I have never had to hunt for congeni- ality, we have it without effort. Our opinions may be at times as far apart as the pclu, or the diversion one of us seeks may be sometimes a trial to the other. For example, I like contract, Whereas he prefers poker. I like horse races well enough, but they are by no means as important to me as to my husband and brother, who, inseparable pals, would watch the horses together every day if they had the opportunity.

My husband's politics, perhaps be- cause not violent or over-assertive, makes no difference to me, nor mine to him. As he is informed on more sub- Jects than any man I know I could for- glve him even if he were a more vo- ciferous Democrat. Anyway, I am lhd to have a Democrat in the family. I am a red-hot, die-hard Remmllun, it is well to have at home a constant re- minder that there are many worthwhile "Democrats. Shortly after we entered the war a commission as major in the Quarter- master Corps was offered Mr. Gann. He went to Attorney General Gregory, and proudly announced that he was going to “You can help win the war right where you are,” the Attorney General said, “and you are serving m?wunwy better than if you should enter the quartermaster general's department.
