Members of the House are not putting so many relatives on the pay roll as in the past. At least, records of the disbursing office fail to show so many clerks with the same surnames as the members for whom they work. The reason for the decrease is un- known. Some members think it might have been due to the barbed remarks of colleagues; others, a reaction from constituents. The last pay roll of the Seventy- third Congress shows 43 House mem- bers, or about 1 out of every 10, had in their offices employes with names identical with their own. For the new Congress the total is down to 34, or approximately 1 in 12. Scheme Worked Out. Ther. is some reason, however, to believe that some Representatives are saying to others, in order to avoid the charge of nepotism: “You put my daughter in your office and I'll hire your son.” And that's to say nothing of “in- laws.” ‘The disbursing office naturally can't go into the ancestry of clerks. But its pay rosters show numerous mem- bers have workers with names the same as those of other Representa- tives. Comparisons Made. The first pay roll of the new Con- gress, in comparison with the last of the previous Congress, discloses: ‘Twenty-one Representatives appear on the first “same-name” list, but not on the second. Fourteen were beaten or retired. The other seven, still in Congress, changed employes. Twelve new names are on the sec- ond list and these include seven new companied by her daughter, Miss Lyda E. Palmer. and five old House members. EMBARGO SCORED Tariff Official Sees No World De- pression Remedy. BOSTON, February 25 (#).—An embargo on foreign goods is no remedy for a world-wide depression, Robert Lincoln O'Brien, chairman of the Federal Tariff Commission, de- clared in an address here yesterday. An embargo on British goods, O’Brien sald, would only throw Amer- ican workmen out of jobs, adding: “If we were to shut out British-made goods for one year with a view of making more work for Americans, we would throw four Americans out of work every time we made work for one by the exclusion of the British 7 WSSONARES REFORED SLAN Australian and His Bride Victims—Safety of Two U. S. Women in Doubt. By the Assoclated Press. SIAN, Shensi, China, February 25.— Unconfirmed reports received by the local office of the China inland mis- sion today said two British mission- aries, Rev. and Mrs. S. C.
