Job-placement preference for Civil Service as well as non-Civil Service employes thrown out of work through reorganization and liquidation of New Deal agencies was urged on President Roosevelt today by the Interlodge Committee on Personnel Transfer. Mr. Roosevelt Saturday urged the W. P. A. to work out some method of preferential treatment of unem- ployed former New Deal workers with- out Civil Service status. The committee sent the following telegram to President Roosevelt at his Hyde Park home: “The Interlodge Committee on Gov- ernment Personnel Transfer com- mends your establishment of a Gov- ernment transfer agency. This action is the first real move toward a Civil Service transfer system. We offer our co-operation in making this agency a success.” In pointing out defects in the system, the committee said the order merely requires appointing officials to consult registers of dismissed employes instead of making it mandatory that the offi- cials hire these employes before tak- ing on new workers. The Interlodge Committee is made up of representatives of the various lodges of the American Federation of Government employes. It was tre- ated when the Federal Emergency Relief Administration was being re- organized and the need for an agency to place them in other employment be- came apparent. This need was em- phasized when the Supreme Court ruled the N. R. A. out of business. Plans for further fulfillment of the committee’s program will be made at a meeting at 8 p.m. Wednesday in the ;smerxcnn Federation of Labor Build- ing.

Both were deteriorating from disuse. And the Government makes a good tenant—it’s impersonal.” Rental by the Government of the I street mansion makes the second residence of the family which the ad- ministration has taken over for one of its agencies. The Walsh residence at 2020 Massachusetts avenue—where young Jock was born—has been leased to the Rural Resettlement Adminis- tration under Undersecretary Tugwell.
