A suggestion that the Commission- ers be given broad authority Yo transfer funds from one department to another | anywhere in the municipal service dur- { ing the next fiscal year as a means of | meeting unusual conditions resulting | from the greatly curtailed local budget | was advanced for consideration during | executive hearings before the Senate subcommittee today on the 1934 Dis- { trict bill. |~ Earlier in the hearings a similar pro- | ‘ POLICY SUGGESTED Heads Sleuths NEW_ CHIEF INSPECTOR FOR POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT. | posal had been suggested to be applied | to certain parts of the bill, such as in | the school system and in the public | libraries, which prompted Senator Thomas, Democrat of Oklahoma, sub- | committee chairman, to ask District | Auditor Donovan and the Commission- |ers to consider the practicability of | adopting some general rule for permit- | ting an interchangeability of funds | throughout the bill. { " Senator Thomas did not indicate that he has mace up his mind this should be done, but merely requested the city {officials to study it, and if it appears | feasible, to submit a proposed amend- ment that the committee could consider. ‘Welfare Officials Heard. The hearings today were featured by testimony of public welfare officials, re- garding the emergency unemployment relief item, and Dr. George F. Bower- man, librarian of the Public Library system, who outlined in detail the effect jon the library of the reduced amounts carried in the House bill. A group of representatives of various civic or- ganizations appeared in support of school items, including Americanization work and playground needs. Miss Selma Borcharat, representing the teachers’ union, submitted a plan for taking care of the present teaching force by adding a small amount to the House figure for personnel. She also appealed for restoration of school building projects, calling attention to the high percentage of unemployment among the building trades in Wash- ington. Members of the subcommittee were told by the publice welfare officials that present indications are that more money will be needed for emergency relief work before the end of the next fiscal year than is carried in the House bill. They, therefore, supported the suggestion made earlier in the hearings that the board be given leeway to spend the emergency fund of $1,250,000 now in the bill more rapidly than one-twelfth per month if conditions make it neces- sary, with the understanding that Con- gress would consider further relief upon its return later in the fiscal year. The relief situation was presented by George S. Wilson, director of public welfare, and Le Roy S. Halbert, in charge of emergency relief. Dr. Bowerman suggested at the con- clusion of his testimony that authority be granted to transfer up to 30 per cent of the book purchase fund to the per- sonnel fund to keep running next year three neighborhood branches, which would be seriously affected by the bill as it now stands. Such authority would make available for personnel the sum of approximately $11,500 urgently needed for personnel above the House figure. Shorter Hours Held Possible. Members of the subcommittee were told in answer to questions that a short- ening of library hours and furloughs loom as possibilities in order to keep within the reduced amount for per- sonnel unlsss some such provision is made. Although the number of reg- istered users of the public libraries has increased 60 per cent between 1929 and 1932 and library circulation has in- creased 66 per cent during that time, | the increase in personnel for the same period was only about 18 per cent and a large part of that increase was due to the opening of a new branch. These figures, it was said, show the inade- quacy of the existing personnel allow- ance in relation to the growth of li- brary work, which would be still fur- ther reduced if no change is made by the Senate in the pending bill. Miss Borchardt showed the subcom- mittee that the reduction in the teach- ing force of the public schools which would be necessary under the House bill could be avoided by an amendment continuing available a balance of $103,- 611 which will remain unexpended from the current appropriations for teachers’ salaries, plus an additional sum of only $27,929. Miss Borchardt also asked the Senate for an amendment under which the contribution now paid by school teachers toward the salaries of substi- tutes who take their places Avhen they are sick be made available for payment of teachers’ salaries instead of being impounded in the Treasury as at present. She pointed out that at present the salaries for annual substitutes are car- ried in the appropriation bill, but “|argued that Congress does not pay for ‘These are outstanding values in strictly al-wool suits. | See them—select from Thundreds of new models, in greys, tans, blues, brown, etc. All sizes. =e=e=———— — SPECIAL NOTICES. leasing_persons who become pleasing! ez Swem, Pastor.

Warns of Health Threat. Mrs. Ernest R. Grant, on behalf of the Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, today sent a statement to the Senators considering the District bill in_which she declared: “Unless the original items in this bill are restored, including that for the adult Tuberculosis Hospital, for the equipment of the Children’s Tubercu- losis Sanatorium, the two special health schools for tuberculosis children, and | provision for mafntaining the Tubercu- & | Josis Children's Clinic (now financed by | the Tuberculosis Association), incalcu- lable harm will be done to the cause of public health and the protection of the people of the Nation's Capital City. Those original provisions represented the ir- reducible minimum of funds absolutely essential to the continuance of our fight against this communicable disease. These original items should be restored and a sufficient_appropriation to provide for at least 600 hospital beds for tubercu- lous patients.” LOUISIANA BEER SALES BECOME LEGAL TODAY State Is First in Deep South to Dispense New 3.2 Brew to Public. By the Associated Press. NEW ORLEANS, April 13 —Louisiana became an “oasis” of the deep South to- day as noon marked the advent of 3.2 per cent beer. Almost 1,000 New Or- leans “‘dispensaries” were ready to serve customers as trains and trucks carried hundreds of cases to inland towns and border cities. Many visitors from the “dry” States of Texas, Arkansas and Mississippi were expected. Louisiana is the only State in the deep South which now has 3.2 beer.

BERLIN, April 13.—Systematic search the police of passengers’ baggage deposited at Prussian railway cloak rooms has yielded a rich harvest of treasonable material, it was said in an official report issued last night. Truckloads of trunks, filled with Communist literature, arms and muni- tions, were seized in Berlin and other cities, the report said. A Jewish business man named Hirsch was arrested yesterday in the city of Waxweiler, near Treves, on suspicion that he had originated atrocity stories printed in Luxemburg. Hirsch formerly was a citizen of Treves and recently moved into Luxemburg. New regulations barred all Jewish newspaper men from the daily con- fidential press conferences granted the political editors of all Berlin dailies. The resignations of the head of universities were expected in accord- ance with administrative changes that are being effected by the government. RETURN OF RAIL CARS DEMANDED OF SOVIET Troops Move Closer to Border as Warning in Connection With Row With Manchukuo. By the Associated Press. ‘TOKIO, April 13.—The Manchukuoan chairman of the Chinese Eastern Rail- way was reported yesterday to have de- manded that Soviet officials of the line return rolling stock allegedly taken across the border to Siberia without au- thority. Although Soviet troops have moved closer to the border as a warning in connection with differences between the Soviet Union and Manchukuo over the Jointly controlled railroad, a govern- mental spokesman here said Japanese authorities do not believe a serious im- passe will result. A Rengo (Japanese) News Agency dispatch from Harbin, Manchuria, said the Russian soldiers had been stationed at Daulia and were now approaching the international line. The Manchukuoan representative was reported as saying that 3,200 freight cars and other rolling stock had to be returned within a month.

HALF OF CHARITIES FUNDS ARE SPENT Associated Group Expends $90,705.96 of $185,588.79 First Three Months. For the first three months of 1933 the Associated Charities has spent $90,- 705.96 out of the $185588.79 available from the Community Chest until the next campaign, it was reported to the board of managers of the society, meet- ing yesterday afternoon. It was brought out that the Asso- ciated Charities is still furnishing relief for certain types of the unemployed, for whom the division of emergency relief of the Board of Public Welfare has inadequate funds. Critical Situation Stressed. Dr. Frederick W. Perkins, chairman of the board, reported on a recent con- ference at which the Associated Chari- ties, the Council of Social Agencies and representatives of the Catholic Charities and the Jewish Social Service Bureau had emphasized the ecritical situation facing the private social agencies as a result of the present emergency. It was brought out by him that these private agencies are still furnishing re- lief for families which are believed the responsibility of the Board of Public Welfare, as, for instance, resident fami- Hes which have gained settlement since July 1, 1931, which is the deadline now set for public relief. Clarence Phelps Dodge, chairman of the society’s Intake Committee, re- ported that in March the Associated Charities spent nearly $7,000 for the re- lief of the unemployed, many of whom are believed to have been chargeable to the Emergency Relief Division of the Board of Public Welfare. Dodge Cites Other Figures. Mr. e cited other figures show- ing that in March the society had spent $5,482 for relief in 202 families in which there was illness, $2,429 for 95 families of widows and $2,734 for 131 families in which the children and their mothers had been deserted by their fathers. Some of these fathers are known to have disappeared because of the present unemployment situation. In all, the Intake Committee reported 975 families given relief to the amount of $20,157 last month. The effect of the depression is shown, it was reported by the Committee on Provident Savings, in the steady de- crease of small savings thru the pur- chase of Provident stamps. Only $207 being so deposited in March as against $557 a year ago. A complete picture of the relief work of the society for last month was pre- sented in reports from the field work- ers of the society who listed the amount of relief given to each family, with the chief cause of dependency, the number of adults and children in the family, length of time during which continuous relief has been given, and the prospect made to that end. Vote to Back Council. ‘The board of managess voted to con- cur in resolutions adopted by the Coun- cil of Social Agencies regarding the pending appointment of a judge of the Juvenile Court to the effect that the person should be chosen because of special qualifications for work with chil- dren including high moral character, in- ogy of children, and ample knowledge of the fundamental rights of the child ‘Those present were Dr. Frederic W. Perkins, presiding; Arthur Deerin Call, C. C. Morgan, Miss Florence P. Spofford, Evan ‘Tucker and George S. Wilson. LOSES SCHOOL FIGHT Court Refuses Writ to Admit Chil- dren Without Vaccinations. District Supreme Court Justice Jesse C.

RIPLEY. 1 DON'T know anything about his murder,” nervously retorted Nell Gibson in reply to Prof. Ford- ney's remark, “You're the first arrest in the Morrisey case,” as he stepped up and drew her back from the railroad station gates. Just then a passerby brushed against Nell, knocking her purse to the ground. Fordney, hastily retrieving it, felt a gun as he handed it to her. No question now about Nell being involved! “You've befriend- ed me more ’an once, professor,” hiccoughed Old An- nie as she admitted Fordney to her one room in the tene- ment house, “and that's why I sent for youu I just came from Tony's,” whispered the old crone with an air of secrecy. “I overheard Nell Gibson anmd that bum Richards she’s been hanging around with havin' an argu- ment. He told her to beat it out of town on the 5:20 from Central Sta- tion—that he'd meet her there—" “Get to the point, Annie,” interrupted Fordney rather impatiently. “You didn't call me——" “The point! Wait! They had just murdered Pat Morrisey at his flati” “Why in thunder didn't you say so before!” exclaimed the professor as he hurried to Morrisey’s hideout where he found the man’s bullet-riddled body! Glancing at his watch he discovered he could just make the station in time and if Annie was right— “So you don't know anything about the murder, et? Then why signal a tipoff to your. pal Richards, who just came out of the waiting room? A con- fession, Nell, might save you the chair!” HOW DID FORDNEY KNOW NELL ‘WAS INVOLVED IN THE MURDER?

NEW YORK, April 13.—Anthony Bonasera, known to police as “The Chief,” was arrested today charged with being the head of an extortion gang which has been preying on Brook- lyn grocers. His record shows 20 arrests and three convictions. Four of the arrests were in murder cases. On August 17 last he them from Pittshurgh, in connection with the murder of John Bazzano, road house proprietor from Pittsburgh, whose body was found stuffed in a sack in Brooklyn. He was released for lack of evidence, rearrested as a public ene- my and again released. Anthony Columbo, a grocer, picked Bonasera’s picture from the Rogues’ Gallery as that of a man who on March 15 entered his store and de- manded “$5,000 within 24 hours or see the undertaker.” Since then a police matron has been living in the Columbo home and plainclothes men have main- t::‘ned a 24-hour watch on house and store.

PENAL INSTITUTIONS HARD HIT BY CUTS IN APPROPRIATION BILL (Continued From First Page.) accommodate themselves to the freer atmosphere outside. Théy have the key to the inclosure, metaphorically, | in their own pockets. It depends upon | themselves whether they use the cells or_not. There are many things for them to do outside of the cell-block. The in- stitution operates factories for automo- bile tags, iron castings, knitted goods, brooms, brushes and bricks. It op- erates a large mechanically equipped { laundry and a print shop. The products lof these industries are used in the District and Federal Government es- tablishments. They do not enter thé| private market. To operate these industries a work- ing fund of /50,000 per annum has | been provided for several years. The | House bill cuts this to $35,000. This lis a cut of 30 per cent. | The prisoners do a great deal of con- struction work during the year and | the growing insiitution has been built up largely with prison labor. To con- tinue construction of dormitory build- ings, the Board of Public Welfare asked $100,000 for the next year. The bill cuts this to $45,000, a cut of 55 per cent. | " "The cut in the construction item is | much more serious than that, how- fever. At present the institution is overpopulated, its daily average being about 120 in excess of the number for which it is built. The extra $55,000 lopped off this appropriation would have provided about 150 beds. Reductions Are Faced. In the face of an increasing popu- for the present population, the insti- tution is faced with reductions in sal- ary items which will compel a net reduction of about 15 guards in the 225 guards at both Lorton and Occo- quan. Capt. Barnard had asked for 15 guards in addition to the ones he has now. Not only will he not get the extra 15, but he will get 15 less, and | those will be working for less pay under the economy act and the Presi- dent’s economy order. There is one final problem which the bill presents to the prison admin- istration. The appropriation for the clothing and feeding of the prisoners was arbitrarily reduced from $350,000 to $280,000. As to this, Capt. Barnard said: “It is absolutely impossible to feed the men properly with that money. We are going to have to run up a dteflmency I don't see any way out of it.” Compared with Lorton and- Occu- prisoners, respectively, serve their sen- tences, the jail escapes comparatively lightly. It will, however, probably have to furlough or dismiss a guard, although the jail authorities have been hoping for some years to cut the work- ing hours of the guards to six days a week. —_— = Many Electric Power Services.
