Rob- erts, people’s counsel, and its passage had been successfully blocked for more than two years. The three minor bills, passed with- out debate, will grant permission to the Smoot Sand & Gravel Corp. to construct petroleum pipe lines in the Buzzard Point area, permit the E. S. Droop & Sons Co. to revive its charter of incorporation and authorize the is- suance of congressional automobile tags to the assistant parliamentarian o{ ukl: House and the journal and tally clerks. Adoption of the amendment to ad- vance $100,000 to Children’s Hospital was preceded by an impassioned plea by Chairman Norton of the District Committee. She declared the money “would do more good than any $100, 000 ever appropriated by Congress.” Mrs. Norton also paid tribute to the work of the hospital, its superin- tendent, Miss Mattie Gibson, and the Junior League, which is furnishing four qualified social service nurses to the institution. EHenbogen Sponsor. The $100,000 amendment was spon- sored by Representative Ellenbogen, Democrat, of Pennsylvania, who also extolled the work at Children’s Hos- pital. He pointed out the amendment would give permission to the District to enter into contract with the hos- pital for the clinical examination of children suspected of being tubercular and to pay to the institution $100,000 to make the needed improvements. Only 55 members of the House were on the floor when the District cal- endar was called up by Mrs. Norton, and before the five bills were passed, the attendance had dropped to 40. In fact so little interest was manifest in the District legislation, that the pub- lic utility bill, with its far-reaching provisions, passed with only a brief discussion between itive of Kansas. Smith merely questioned whether the committee had deter- mined the constitutionality of certain provisions, During consideration of the Dis- trict bills, several members, including Chairman Norton, Representative Randolph, Democrat, of West Vir- ginia, and Representative McLeod, Republican, of Michigan, paid tribute to the late Prederick N. Zihiman, who at ofie time was chairman of the House District Committee.

By the Associated Press. 1l The Government has asked a 30- day delay in the Taft liberty bond gold case in the United States Court of Claims. George Sweeney, assistant to the Attorney General, described the move today as nothing out of the ordinary —indicating it was but to give more time for the Government to prepare its answer. Some observers said the delay might allow Congress time to enact remedial legislation, blocking suits of this type. ~The Taft claim—which actually in- volves only $1.07 in any kind of money —could control millions of dollars in called liberty bonds and interest, Gov- ernment officials admit, in case the court ruled his bond coupon had to be paid in the amount of gold for ‘which it called. It involves a $50 Fourth Liberty bond bearing 4, per cent interest that was called last April by the Treasury. Refused payment in gold, Robert A. Taft of Cincinnati elected to keep his bond, which any bondholder may do, but Government attorneys say in so doing he forfeits future in- terest. Last October, when one of the coupons matured, Taft presented it and was refused payment of $1.07. He then filed suit in the Court of Claims, where action against the Gov- ernment are heard. There has been constant specula- tion on the possibilities of this type of claim since the Supreme Court ruled in the gold cases that the Gov- ernment could not rip the gold pay- ment clause out of its own bonds. Taft is & son of the late President and former Chief Justice. Sweeney successfully defended in the Court of Claims the Nortz gold certificate and Perry Liberty bond cases, which later were carried to the Supreme Court as part of the gold test cases.

After working since December 1 without pay, approximately 1,300 Treasury employes—principally Alco- hol Tax Unit investigators—whose jobs were periled by the McKellar rider, today faced early prospect of getting their money, and all, with the exception of 350, were assured of re- maining on the Government rolls. Nor was there much doubt, either, that these latter would hold on, ‘as the only barrier to their continuance is & non-competitive examination which will be based on experience. ‘The long-standing mix-up virtually was adjusted yesterday afternoon when the House adopted the conference re- port on the Treasury-Post Office bill carrying funds for the 1,300 and fix- ing the conditions of employment. The Senate still must act on the confer- ence report, but that is considered no. more than & formality, inasmuch as the legislation affecting the 1,300 was devised in the Senate. The . is ready to pay the men the minute the legislation com- pletes passage, and the Civil Service Commission has also made prepara- tions to proceed with the examina- tions, which must be completed by May 15. The 350 who must take tests are those against whom the rider spon- sored by Senator McKellar, Democrat, of Tennessee originally was directed, he contending they were “hand-picked Hoover Republicans” brought into the Treasury when the old Prohibition Bureau was abolished nearly two years ago. The others were caught under the rider in an opinion by Controller General McCarl. The entire lot either failed or refused to take a competi- tive examination forced by the rider, and so went on a payless basis De- cember 1. They already had com- petitive civil service status, and Sec- retary Morgenthau kept them at work because they were needed to enforce the liquor laws.

GAS REPELS STRIKERS Birmingham Crowd Moves on Three Laundries, However. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., April 23 (F).— Police riot squads were called out to- day to disperse hundreds of striking laundry workers and sympathizers who put on spectacular demonstra- tions at three of the largest laundries in the city. Tear gas bombs were nec- essary. ‘Workers, augumented by scores of sympathizers, moved in mass forma- tion on one laundry, where the re- serves warned them off. Breaking into small groups, apparently by pre- arrangement, the crowd moved on an- other laundry. Police reserves again met them and fixed & deadline, over which the crowd cut diagonally, to be met by tear gas bombs. The crowd moved to a third laundry before po- lice were able to disperse it. ‘The strike has been in progress here for :;:‘n‘fiun two weeks, with union ‘worl lema: & closed d & pay lnmmnm o e .Begins Tomorrow at 9 .. .
