OUSE WILL ACT ON SECTION 213 Bill to Repeal “Married Per- sons” Clause to Be Called Up Tomorrow. Actlon in the House on the Celler bill to wipe out the so-called “mar- ried persons clause,” last remaining remnant of the economy act of June 30, 1932, under a special rule granted two weeks ago by the House Rules Committee, has been postponed until tomorrow. Chairman O'Connor of the Rules Caommittee had announced he intended to call up this special rule yesterday, and it was put on the official pro- gram of the House by Representative Boland of Pennsylvania, the Demo- cratic whip. Prolonged debate in the House on the rule to increase the ap- propriation for celebration of the ses- quicentennial of the Constitution took place, however, and the desire of members to have an adjournment to- day 2o they could attend the all-star base ball game, induced leaders to put Off consideration of the section 213 rule, Representative Celler, Democrat, of New York, is author of the bill and Chairman Ramspeck of the Civil Bervice Commission presented the res- olution to the Rules Committee. Representative O'Day, Democrat, of New York, who presented the appeal of Miss Mary Dewson, vice chairman of the Democratic National Commit- tee, was the principal advocate of the rule before the Rules Committee. The only opponent was Chairman Cochran of the House Committee on Expendi- tures. Mre. O'Day presented a report on a survey showing the number of cases in which this clause in the economy act, requiring, where there was to be a reduction in the Government force, that it be made where both husband and wife were on the Federal pay roll. Scores of cases in which this provision worked a distinct hardship were received before both the Civil Bervice and Rules Committees. The Argument that had most weight in both committees was that this provi- sion was breaking up homes and was e cause of other “regrettable condi- tions.” Mrs. O'Day emphasized that section 213 “was merely a gesture” because it affected only 1,835 jobs. She said “it was worse than misdirected be- cause it struck at a fundamental democratic principles—the merit sys- tem.” She emphasized that 2,927 per- €ons were actually affected by the dismissal of 266 individuals and that children were found in 266 of these | cases. The repeal proposal has the support of the National League of Women Voters, the National Federation of Post Office Clerks, the National Civil Service Reform League. the National Federation of Federal Employes, the American Federation of Government Employes, the Business and Prcses- sional Women's Clubs, the General Federation of Women's Clubs and many other national organizations particularly interested in civil service questions.
