BOARD T0 RESTORE POLICE ON MONDAY Montgomery Body Will Put Reinstatement Law Into Effect. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., March 15.—The Democratic-sponsored law retaining and reinstating the 15 members of the Montgomery County police force who had the longest service records last January 1, will be put in effect Monday morning as a result of action yesterday by the Fusion-controlled Board of County Commisisoners. Fifteen of the 17 policemen ap- pointed since the Fusion party took office last November will be retained. These will be named, together with the 15 of longest record of service, by Frank H. Karn, chairman of the Board of Commisisoners, and their names sent to the Department of State Employment and Registration for certification. Under provisions of the new law the policemen retained and reinstated are members of the force as of January 1 of this year. The law also provides that members of this force of 30 men are protected against removal except | for “cause.” Future appointments to the force | under the new law are on a civil serv- ice basis. All applicants will be re- quired to take a civil service exami- nation and will be placed on an eligible list of the Department of State Em- ployment and Registration in Balti- | more. o WILLIAMS WARNS CODES MUST 0UST INEFFICIENT FIRMS (Continued Prom First Page.) Delaware, raised the question of the less efficient business man. “If N. R. A. works perfectly,” the Delaware Senator asked, “won't it put out of business a lot of people not capable of the best management? Won't it limit business to those ca- pable of managing efficiency and put out of business those who are only | mediocre?” “It is for you gentlemen to elect on that question,” Williams agreed leaning forward. “There isn't any such thing as| looking out for the wage of the worker and at the same time looking out for the interest of the operator who must pav the wage.” Hastings said it was “not good | Americanism” to tell a man he could | not run his business unless he paid | a certain wage. “It's freedom he's entitled to.”| Hastings said, “and I don't think Congress should interfere, -particularly if he is doing his business in the State.” Congress Must Choose. Reverting to_the subject again a moment later, Williams asserted that a8 few units of an industry should not be permitted to break down all standards. “If you are going to touch any busi- ness,” he insisted, “Government must sustain its touch on all. Congress must decide which end you are going to serve. They are inconsistent ends setween which Congress must choose.” “There isn’t any doubt what Con- gress will do,” Senator Bailey, Demo- crat, of North Carolina said. “It will take the side of small business.” | Williams. questioned by the com- mittee, denied big business was always | more efficient than small, but agreed | it was more customary. | “You have demonstrated that in the | tobacco business,” King remarked with | & grim smile.

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN. ENIZELOS must wish today he had accepted the offer \/ made him in February by the Greek government to take a long trip to the Far East. The trip would not have cost Venizelos a cent. He could have roamed about Japan, China and even Australia at his heart's desire. The only condition attached to this pleasant joy ride was that he should not return to Greece before the end of 1936. % 5. Now, the fiery old Cretan is in Italy and like all those who have failed in a coup d'etat, he will soon make his way to France. His ultimate destiny will be a nice house in a suburb near Paris and he will join the ever-in- creasing club of political exiles who spend their life in France, writing memoirs and dreaming of “the day” which only seldom comes. Sometimes a bullet of some super-heated patriot misses them. Then, they have the satisfaction of making the front page a day. * Kk But while Venizelos and the other leaders of the abortive revolution are in safety, the smaller fry are paying billion drachmas. The Athens government is hard on its political opponents. It has always been. Military tribunals which are being organized as soon as & rebellion has failed or has been successful are a mere formality to legalize the action of the firing squads. * X k ¥ Had Venizelos not escaped, he would have been, without any doubt, executed by the Tsaldaris government. He knew that he could expect no mercy from any Greek quarter, be- cause he has never given any himself. After the disastrous Turkish- Greek war which ended with the abdication of King Constantine, Venizelos ordered the firing squads for all his political opponents. Premier Gunaris and Gen. Hadjian- esti were among the first victims. Poor Hadjianesti had to be carried and put against the wall because he still imagined that his legs were of glass and he should not walk, lest they break. 3 * ¥k ¥ K The British government, which has TIME TO HAVE YOUR SPRING HAT CLEANED REBLOCKED BACHRACH Millinery & Hat Blockers 733 11th St. N.W.

During the critical days which followed the Dollfuss assassination last year the cat was particularly helpful. Officials in Vienna would telephone the legation. The tele- phone would ring and ring and the deaf gentleman would go about his business hearing absolutely nothing. But often enough the cat would be sitting too, curled up near the tele- phone. And when she was not too deeply sunk in slumber the ringing of the telephone would cause it to stir | and gaze about the room. | Alert at this signal, the long- distance telephone official would hurry to the board and gathering that Vienna was on the wire, connect if with the proper quarters in the| legation. On the present occasion this com- munication system, whether on ac- | Count of the absence of the cat or for | some other reason, has been particu- | larly bad. Hence, the Austrian Min- ister discovered from the morning newspapers that his chief was coming to London the next day. . Saves 2,024 Spools. Keeping every spool, Mrs. R.
