f the Panana railroad representative's testimony.
Rep. John 1. Allen (R-Cal.) asked witness Robert C. Daniel
whether he felt someone might deliberately be trying to press far
the abandonment of the railroad.

"Have you any idea who might somebody is not doing their, du-

Daniel replied: "I can't under-
stand it myself.''
Allen; Do you know who owns

which is me only other freight car-

Isthmus?
Daniel: Its a corporation, dif-

Allen: You mean 'influential
people?
Daniel: Yes.
Allen: Any who have
ty or has a misconception of
what their duty is," Tumulty said
then asked:
"If the railroad were to carry
the traffic which was not diverted,
and if all freight was rightfully
carried by the railroad, would it
show a profit or loss?''
"Profit, I think," Daniel replied
"Then it appears," Tasaalty
concluded, that the losses oa the
railroad are not doe t* obsoles-

Solon Talks Of 'Crime
Cov. John S. Seybold, scheduled to appear before the
House subcommittee this afternoon, faced charges that
the Panama Canal Company had attempted deliberately
to discredit the Panama Railroad in an effort to force its
abandonment.
The chart* was levelled at the morning session by Robsrt C Doniel, spokesman
for the railroad unions.
Daniel declared th railrood wa$ oporairog ot a lost onh/ becsuM of poor man-
agement, and a well-laid and deliberate plan en the part ot ntoss^fwient to justify its
abandonment by diverting business through other channels.

Part of the railroad's financial woes, he alleged, were attributable to its support-1

At one stage during Daniel's testimony Rep. James A. Byrne (R-Pa.) said: "It
seems the railrood is a saving, a convenience, and an artery of defense. Yet they are
tying to eliminare it I 4an't get it."

there is no such committee to

There is only the new Industrial

of the treasury, seems to be loos-

taxes next year.
To those who have listened to
Secretary Humphrey's quiet but
eloquent pleas for a balanced budg-
et, this is like reporting that
there's a big seam opening up in
'
Near Esit but they've brought
smoulderjag resentment in the
Deep South.
Building the Aswan Dam will
mean that about 2,000,000 more
up on U.S. dollars to the] acres of Egyptian land will be

petition with American cotton.
Today Secretary Benson has
about 7,000,000 bales of cotton in
U.S. warehouses which he cannot
sell at home and. which would hit
Egypt and other cotton-growing
countries a severe Mow if sold

ment. For hitherto, George Hum- mer, Benson proposed selling this
phrey has been as impervious as
the monument in listening to
arguments for more spending
abroad or anywhere else. Over
and over again be has patiently
explained inside the Cabinet that
he was now on the two-yard line,
that one more push could put the
ball across the goal of a balanced
budget.
However, with Russia stealing
the old Truman-Acheson point 4
program of sending technical ad-
visers all over the Near and Mid-
dle East, and even offering to
build the Aswan Dam for Egypt,
Secretary Humphrey has finally
decided that this is no time to
scarifice the cold war for a bal-
anced budget.
John Hollister, Senator Taft's
old law partner whom Ike .ap-
pointed head of foreign aid, has
actually urged a 20 per cent cur-
tailment of foreign-aid spending m
the present budget. However, Sec-
retary Humphrey, though origl
nally siding vigorously with Hol-
lister, now seems to be. veering
just as definitely the other way.
BENSON CAKES
Secretary BensOn has called th
tuna, on those like Jim Patton
head of the Farmers Union, wh
have been shouting about givi
away some of our surplus
cotton abroad, while keeping the
price high at home*: However,
Secretary of State Dulles objected.
He claimed it would ruin Egyptian
economy, hurt other cotton coub>
tries, chiefly Brazil. Dulles won
his point Benson still has hi*
cotton.
Shortly thereafter Dulles woke
up to the fact that Egyptian cot-
ton which he had protected was
being traded to Czechoslovakia tor
arms in a barter deal which Mas
preclpatated a serious crisis in
the Near East. It's the type of
deal the United States has re-
fused to make, for fear of hurting
friendly Allies.
This of course caused resent-
ment in the Deep South. Now
there's more resentment over the
proposal to use American dollars
to build the Aswan Dam and
create more Egyptian cotton
acreage.

the merrymaking. I
It's a national affair, carnival
and there's something doing vir-
tually every minute for everybody
from grandparents to toddlert.
Beauty queens blossom from ever-
y float in every parade and street
dances break out anywhere at the
drop of a sombrero.
Most spectacular celebration of
all occurs in Panama City.
Americans srriving aboard Fan
American World Airways' flights
from half a doien U.S. cities are
in for an eye-opening expenenoe
at Carnival time. Everywhere
they look there'll be something to
see, photograph or take part in
The four-day festivities include
a special day for masquerading, a
apeiUl day for the grand parade
offloats, a special night given ov-
er to strolling bandt of identical-
ly-costumed merrymakers, cal-
led comparsas, and a special day
devoted to dances featuring the
national cestume-the white-fring-
ed montuno for the men and the
pollera dress for the women.
"Rooted in Africa is Panama
national dance, the Tamborito,
which is featured during Carnival.
Brought to Panama by homesick
slaves who were given time on
from work for dancing to throb-
bing drums as a means of ttifung
discontent, the Tamborito was
quickly adopted by the descendants
of Panama's Spanish colonists.
They improvised new music, ad-
ded new dance steps and devised
costumes for the dancers.
Since Carnival is a firmly root-
ed national tradition, its celebra-
tion is a "must" for everyone, re-
gardless of social or financial sta-
tus. Even children too young to
dance find a way to masquerade
and parade up and down the
streets beating toy drums and cal-
ling themselves "conoces, from
the expression used by e a rl y
masked Spanish revel e r s who
chanted "no me' conoce! (You
don't know me!) as they parade.
Streets are filled with merry-
makers there to see and be seen.
Proud and preening in their pol-
leras, women will walk the streets
for hours to have others admire
their finery. ..
Comparsas hire trucks snd ride
through the streets dancing and
endlessly singing the two carnival
songs, "Mi Pollera" and Pana-
meo." Those who can afford it
hoist a few musicians onto the
trucks to add to the general dim
No one has a careexcept pos-
sibly for more of Panama s popu-
As dawn breaks on Ash Wednes-
day, tolling chuch bells call wor-
shippers to services. Thereupon
exhausted revelers carry out the
final ceremony of carnival, tne
"Burial of the Pish."
A mock funeral is held, amia
loud lamentations, with a funeral
procession in which the partici-
pants alternately trudge along in
counterfeit sorrow or break into a
fast rumba.
US Army, Air Force Ignore Ruling
Against Court-martialling Civilians.
WASHINGTON, Dec, 7 (UP) Court of Military Appeals on
The Amy and Air POrce s a l d technical grounds,
today they win continue to court The Air Force said JtwUl as-
martial civilians accompanying sume the disputed section of tne
the services overseas despite a military justice code tf constttii-
. w . tional and binding until there la
U.S. district court ruling that
such trials are unconstitutional.
Federal Judge Edward A. Tamm
recently declared unconstitutional
a section of the U.S. Code of Mil-
itary Justice giving military
cours authority over he families
of servicemen and other civilians
overseas.
He handed down the ruling
here In freeing Mrs. Clarice
Covert, who was being held
for a second military trial on
charges that she murdered her
Air Force husband in England.
Mrs. Covert's first conviction
had been reversed by the
der consideration.
Tamm based bis ruling on a
recent Supreme Court decision
that it is unconstitutional to court
martial former servicemen for
crimes committed while in uni-
form.
If ex-aervicemen are enitled to
a civilian triaT'so are persont
who have been civilians all along,
Tamm said.
The Times, a service newspa-
per published to Army, Navy and
Air Force editions, commented:
a decision to the contrary
higher court." ,...
Therefore the Air Force said in
answer to questions, it will conti-
nue military trials of eiyilians.
The Army aald in answer
questions that it had adopted the
same policy and so Instructed its
overseas commands.
The Defense apartment, whose
i "Judge Tarawa decisionif it
stands will leave a wide hole m
the law for Americans overseas
with be firces. They can' be
tried by the military. They can't
be tried by American c i vil i an
courts since hey are outside A-
merican territory.
"They could, of course, be tried
by foreign court "in whose terri-
tory the crime was committed."
Mrs. Covert was tried in an A-
merlcan military court.sfter the
British waived jurisdiction. ..

Federal Tax Cut
Possible In 1956,
CED Believes
NEW YORK,'Dec. 7 (UP) The
eommlttec for Economic Develop-
ment said today it should be pos-
sible to cut federal taxes $3
billion to $4 billion next year.
CED's program committee said,
however, that "this prospect
would have to be abandoned if
the Congress should find it neces-
sary to increase appropriations
materially In the coming session."
The committee dismissed argu-
ments that the tax rates should
be left* high to curb a possible In-
flation.
. "It if. not at all certain that
the country is moving into a se-
rious Inflationary situation," the
committee said.
It i aid first priority should be
given to cutting the indlvdual in-
i Die tax, with a relatively great-
er percentage of -eduction in
the middle and upper brackets.
It said "extremely high rates''
in these brackets are "seriously

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7 (UP)
The Supreme Court today unan-
imously ordered Georgia to give
a new tijtal to Amos Reece, Ne-
gro convict sentenced to the
electric chair for the rape of a
white woman in Cobb County,
Ga.
At the time of the offense,
Oct. 20, 1953, Reece was an in-
mate of a prison camp serving
16 to 80 year sentence for as-
sault with intent to rape and
for stealing.
The state accused Reece of
raping the woman after stop-
ping at her house for a drink of
water while working on the
roads.
Reece contended his indict-
ment should be thrown out be-
cause Negroes were excluded
from the grand and trial juries.
The Supreme Court, in an
opinion by Justice Tom C.
Clark, said that "the sizable
Negro population in the county,
the fact that all-white juries
had been serving for as long as
witnesses could remember, and
the selection on the jury list of
a relatively few Negroes who
would probably be disqualified
for actual jury service ail point
to a discrimination."
The Oeorgia Supreme Cotirt
had rejected Reece's appeal on
grounds that under state law an
objection to^a grand Jury must I
be made before the indictment
Is handed down.
But Clark said:
"This court over the rfast 50
years has adhered to the view
that valid grand jury selection
is a constitutionally protected
right. The indictment of a de-
fendant by a grand Jury from
which members of his race have
been systematically excluded in
a denial of his right to equal
protection of the laws."
The court did not pass on the
constitutionality of the Georgia
law requiring that an objection
to a grand Jury must be made
befte the indictment Is handed
down. It upheld a similar law in
Louisiana in another case today.
The justices said that the key
fact was that Reece had no real
opportunity to challenge the
grand Jury before his indict-
ment, because he was held in
jail for two days before he was
indicted, and was not provided
with a lawyer until after the In-
dictment was handed down.
The effective assistance of
counsel in such a case is a cons-
titutional requirement of due
process which no member of the
union may disregard. Georgia
should have considered Reere's
motion to quash on its merits,"
the court said.

Parley Called On Stretching
Scarce Salk Vaccine Stocks
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7 (UP) -
The nation's top polio experts
have been summoned to conefr
here today on the possibllty of
stretching out scarce supplies of
Salk vaccine by temporarily lim-
iting shots to one per child.
Facing the .experts is the ques-
tion of whether it would be bet-
ter to give some 60 million chil-
dren a single shot next year or
give two or three shots to a much
smaller number In age groups
most susceptible to the disease.
The present program calls for
three Injections over an e i g h V
month period. The cut-back, if
called for, would be temporary.
Dr. Jonas E. Salk, developer of
the vaccine, members of the gov-
ernment vaccine advisory com-
mittee and representatives of
medical and public health organi-
zations will concentrate on the
question at the meeting.
Their recommendations will be
handed to Dr. Leonard A. Scheele,|
head of the public health service.,
Schcele, In turn, may refer the'
question to the National Adviso*!
ry Committee, which would givel
its-views to Secretary Marion B.
FdMfe of the Health. Education
and Welfare Department. Folsom
would then have responsible for
the final decision.
The one-shot idea grew out of
the mass inoculation program this
summer. Studies showed that
millions jf children who received
only one shot derived at least 75
per cent and In some cases up
to 90 per cent protection from
paralytic polio.
Experts have believed that the
three-shot program affords best
protection if the second injection
is given four to six weeks after
the first and the third about sev-
en months after that.
But since there still Is not e-
nough vaccine to go around, ma-
ny scientists now take the view
that, a one-shot program is the
only way to give a decree of pro-
tection to the maximum number
of children. Some others think
that the best alernae plan is
to give at least two shifts in
quick succession.
The length of the polio season,
which begins in the spring, pre-
sents some technical problems,
however. One is how long a sin*
gle shot will remain effective.
Most children got their shots this
year just before or during the
season. A single shot given now
would have to be good for eight
or nine months to give protection
at the peak of the 1956 polio sea-
son.
Salk, who has been doing re-
search on the question, will re-
port on it tomorrow. ...

rooms for garnish.
Wash potatoes and bake is a
very hot oven (450 degrees F.) one
Jiour or until soft. Remove from

esch and scop out the Inside.
Mash throughly, dd salt, Mack

spoons of the butter or margarine
and fresh lemon juice. Add to pota-
toes and beat until fluffy. Pile
lightly into shells. Garnish each

dipped in remaining butter or
much more optimistic than a
week ago when Faure decreed

under Impressionist Roberto Lew-

died at Cooper Union New

Demands for such mediation

Many readers have recently
asked the same sort of question in
different words: "When do you
draw trumps? What sort of reason
do you have for not drawing
trumps' How can jou tell one kind
of hand from the other?"
This question cannot be an-
swered in a single article, but
perhaps we can cover it with
several hands over the next week
or two.
Let's begin with a "baby" hand..
Some players might go wrong with
it, but the chances sre that all of
my readers would play it correctly.
You reach the correct contract
of four spades with the South hand,
and West opens the seven of clubs.
How do you plan to play the hand?
Your first step is to count your i
possible losers. You count no losers
in the black suits, but note that!
you may lose one heart and two
diamonds. You can afford to lose
these three tricks, but you still
cannot quite afford to spread your
cards out on the table and claim
your contract.
If you're not careful, West will
manage to ruff a club. To prevent
him from doing so, you must draw
West's trumps before you do any-
thing else.
Can you afford to draw four
rounds of trumps? Yes. You expect
to win at least five spade tricks
and five clubs no matter what else
happens.
Therefore you take the ten of
spades, followed by three more top
spades,, thus drawing all of West's
trumps. This leaves you with one
trump still in your hand.
Now you run the rest of the
clubs, discarding two diamonds
from your hand. This permits you

ITS the most natural thing in!
the world for a novice bowler to
wa 't up on the approach and ask
"Where do I stand'"
A right-handed bowler should
have his left fool in the center of i
the alley in line with the headpin.
As he moves into his delivery of;
the ball, he will naturally release
it on the right side of the alley.,
This is true for either a straight
ball or a hook.
""A left-hander lines himself up
just the opposite, with his right
foot in the center of the alley.
Once you take your stance, you
ihould move in a straight line
toward the foul line.
If you think about it a little.
i'ou'll realize how important it is
o stand in the same place every
time. A baseball pitcher would'
ha"ve no control at all if he de-
livered the ball from a different
place on ti pitcher's mound each
time. w
There is a system of dots, cal-
led ranye-finders. on the newer al-|
leys. The 'large center dot indica-
tes the exact center of the alley. |
If you're bowling in an older house
without the dots on the approach.'
do a little board counting to find
the center. .i
The other half of th< question
Involves how far behind the foul
line to place your feet. This isn't
quite as easy to answer, since two
variables determine that the
length of your legs, or steps, and
the number of steps you take.
Most bowlers today use the four-j
step delivery and start at about!
the 12-foot mark (a line) behind
the foul line.
You ran provide the best sn-
wer. With your back to the pins.
place your heels on the foul line.

If the problems of the major baseball leajfues, in
their more serious financial aspects, needed playing
up for more complete comprehension by the fans,
the Brooklyn club has done a perfect job with the
announcement that it will play seven National
League championship games in Jersey/City each sea-
son for at least the next three years.
Walter Francis O'MaUey, president of the Brooklyn club, to-
day explained the venture as ''a voyage of exploration.
But. let it be revealed here, it may develop Into something
much more significant. The Dodgers are going to quit Ebbets
Field at the close of the 1957 season. They are certain to sell the
real estate, valued at more than $2 million, before then.
II there is no new stadium In Brooklyn to receive the Dodg-
ers in 1958, they will play all their home games that season in
Jersey Cltv. There Is no telling where an experiment like that
might lead. v . .
On the surface, the venture in Jersey appears to be Ul-ad-
vtsed. a blow at the historic pride of the Brooklyn fan and a
hefty wallop at the National League, which approved the plan
last spring. ,...
For the world champion Dodgers to shift six I95 night games
and a davlight game to an area abandoned by the International
League and turned over to stock-car racing would appear to
smack of serious trouble. ,
Let us examine the record. The 1955 Dodgers were baseball s
outstanding team. They Tan away with the National League
pennant, finally beat the Yankees for the world championship.
With all their superlatives, all their on-the-dlamond drama-
tics and oif-the-fleld rhubarbs, with a regional baseball mono-
poly, the matchless Dodgers failed to draw more than 1,050,000
customers at Ebbets Field. ^.-- ,,
Starting each spring with an outlay of $200,000 at vero
Beach Fla.. the Brooklyn operation Is a very expensive one. If
the Dodger* had not become involved In a seven-game World
Series, netting a $330,000 dividend, they would have finished In
Contrary to general belief in Brooklyn, those who own the
club are not money-despising altruists. Actually, they hold to the
principle that an investment, even in the major leagues, should
bring in some Income, at least lb occasional years.
O'MaUey Acquits TV
Competent students feel the club, with the majors' most ex-
tensive TV program77 home games. 25 road games last season
fairly begs its patrons to stay away from its obsolete park with
its Victorian parting facilities.
Powerful evidence to the contrary. O'MaUey insists TV is not
to blame for Brooklyn's world champions falling to draw within
150,000 of the 1,200,000 paid which the fourth-place Red Sox
attracted In Boston last summer.
O'MaUey has stopped hoping the Dodgers can be cpnverted
Into money makers in their outmoded quarters. 80 he Is exploring.
O'MaUey who, by the way. w,as not my informant about the
serious conditions In baseball revealed here several days ago.
defends his Jersey City move with the explanation that "It is a
togleal step looking to the long-range soluUon of problems in
Brooklyn." Precisely what that means I am not at all certain.
He adds: "I have made It clear to Jersey City that the Dodg-
ers have no present intention of transferring the club to that
Horace Stoneham says he Is not Interested In a similar Jer-
sev Cltv deal for the Giants. However, the Dodger experiment
may Invite like ventures In other National League cities.________

President Arias will meet
Martini this week to deter-
mine Saarinen' opponent in
the finals.
In the second flight, Dr. Au-
relio Arias stroked out a sur-
prisingly easy 5 and 3 victory
over Bob Medinger. Col. Harold
Donovan defeated Jim Ridge 2
and 1 will now meet Dr. Arias
for the second flight title.
In the third flight, Dr. Juan

On paper, the race shapea up
as a real puzzle. Dot Pastor has
three consecutive victories to his
credit. Montero won his last start.
El Pasha, Don Brigido and Cura-
zalena have been performing
creditably and can't be overlook-
ed. However, if the Haras Carin-

FIVE CENTS
Lawyer Hints PC Pilotage Too Costly
.
Wc possroirity that the Pan-
ama Canal Co. is charging too
much for pilotage through the
Canal was hinted yesterday by
the counsel for the Panama Ca-
nal Pilots Association.
Testlfylne before the House
Panama Canal aubcommittee
holding public hearings at Bal-
boa Heights. Washington attor-
ney William S. Tyson said it was
his understanding that the
Charges for pilotage "were sev-
eral times in excess" of what the
Canal Co. paid 1U pilots.
- Tyson, who was accompanied
to the hearing by four officers
Of the Pilots Association, en-
dorsed the Oramatz Bill which
favors employe representation
on the board of directors of the
Canal Co. and urged adequate
compensation for the governor
of the Canal Zone and his chief
assistants. ____
At the same time Tyson
praised Qov. Seybold who he
said "hat a much better grasp
and awareness of the problems
of his employes than many of
his predecessors."
Tyson suggested that provi-
sions in HR 7305. HR ISM and
HR 7393 which gives the cor-
poration the authority to ap-
point employes and "fix their
compensation" be amended to
reflect the Classification Act of
1948 which provides that com-
pensation of officers and mem-
bers of the crews of vessels shall
be fixed in accordance with pre-
vailing rates and practices in the
maritime industry.
He pointed out that Canal
pilots are "the only group of
V. citizen employes of the
company who do not receive
the 2S per cent differential."
Testifying for the Pilots As-

sociatlon. Tyson also spoke up
for the continued operation of
the railroad across the Isthmus,
declaring that "the pilots make
frequent official and other use
of the railroad." .
'They favor an adequate
transportation system on the
Isthmus. It is necessary to mod-
ernize the railroad in order to
put it on a paying basis. They
would advocate modernization.
'Tyson added.
Other points in Tyson" testl-
monv were:
] i The pilot do not favor the
proposed transfer of the Canal
Co. to -the Department of Com-
merce at this time.
2> Canal pilots seek establish-
ment of a fair -procedure for
handling grievance*.
3> The association favors ap-
proval of HR 3949 Which would
give Canal pilots the same re-
tirement benefits now received
by other government personnel
engaged In hazardous or Inves-
tigative occupations.
(Tyson argued that the
health hazards of the tropics
"vitally affect their life span.")
41 The pilots favored better
salaries for their Navy superiors,
whose salaries are limited by
Congress "and Is completely out
of line -with their responsibili-
ties and their positions.''
"i^urthermore It is not suffi-
ciently in excess of the compen-
sation of their subordinates to
provide a proper differential."
Tyspn added.
Gaskin On Local-Rate Views;
Local 907 Denied Hearing
Ont of the speaker alatad to appear before the com mittee yesterday aftarnoon was daniad permission to spaa*
before they said Armed Force employes do net come with in their jurisdiction.

After identifying hit organization, member conferred briefly, and announced that they bad no control of Local

power. He approved the sug-
gested replacement of the pres-
ent board by seven-man advisory
board, plus an administrator and
deputy administrator.
Regarding a proposed provi-
sion that Canal facilities not
used in actual transit should be
self-supporting, Lovelady wrote
Miller: l
"I do not know enough about
accounting to predict how this
might be Interpreted and appli-
ed.
y "I do know, however, that
some of the facilities used for
purpose other than actual tran-
sit of ship include such as com-
missaries, schools police and fire
protection, sanitation of the Ca-
nal Zone, hospitals and dispen-
saries, housing, maintenance of
buildings and grounds, recrea-
tional facilities, and construction
and maintenance of streets,,
roads and highways.
"Because of our unique sltua-l
tion of being isolated and set
apart from areas in which such;
services would be provided by
private enterprise, city, county,
state, or Federal Governments,
L feel strongly that the product
we sell (transiting of shios)
Should pay the cost of operating
these essential non-revenue-de-
riving functions. ,
"If the Congress should de-
cide otherwise, then I believe
li should give consideration to
allowing us to use a part of the
approximately tc,999.999 a year
we pay as income taxes to de-
fray the costs of schools, police
and fire protection, construc-
tion and maintenance of
streets and highway, and ether
thing which our counterparts
in the continental United
States ret for their Uses."
After reading his letter to Mil-
ler, Lovelady went on to com-
ment on ponlts raised at Mon-
day's session of the hearings.
"I believe It was Mr. Tumulty
who asked how many employes
here enjoy civil service protec-
tion. His question was not an-
swered.
"Unlike most so-called wage-
board positions in continental
United States, none of the ex-
playes occupying craft-type
positions here enjoy the pro-
tection accorded their counter-
parts in the States because
they are not In the competitive
civil service; that is to say,
they do not have to comete
In open competitive examina-
tions to test their fitness for
appointment.
"As of June 30, 1655, there were
about 2579 uch positions in the
Company-Government organiza-
tion. ; -
"As of the same date, there
were 1668 employes of the Com-
pany-Government occupying po-
sitions subject to the General
Schedule of the Classification
Act of 1949, as amended.
"Of those In the so-called clas-
sified or graded positions, I es-
timate that not more than 1000
occupy competitive service posi-
tions and thus enjoy the protec-
tion common in approximated
93*r of the Jobs In continental
United SUtes.
"This means, therefore, that
something les sthan *5% ef
oer employes enjoy the same
protection as is accorded 93%
Of their counterparts in the
United States."
He then referred to the' effects
of contracting out work former-
ly performed by the Canal.
"This practice has, without
doubt, resulted in the loss of jobs
by hundreds of employes, both
among the United States citizens
and the non-citizen or local-rase
personnel.
"Many of us feel ,that such
practice is false economy and v>e
suggest that the committee
iwou.J do well to investigate In
considerable detail this practice
of the Company.
"For example, the mainten-
ance of grounds- on the Gatun
.Backfill Dam was let out on con-
tract. Vet I have reports from
what I feel are reliable sources
that our own Grounds Mainten-
ance Division could have done a
better Job at something like
$8000 a year less than was bid by
Hhe person who obtained the
contract.
"I want to emphasize that I
cannot vouch for the accuracy of
this statement, but I am of the
very firm opinion that much of
the work being done by con-
tractors is inferior to that for-
merly performed by our own
force. I suggest the matter war-
rants a close Inspection by this
commlttee.-
He contended the principle
! of dividing certain Canal cler-
ical positions equally between
; Panamanian and US citizens
is being grossly violated.
"For example, there are now
In the Company-Government or-
ganization approximately 1600
clerical positions. Of these, about
1200 are filled by Panamanians
at local rates of pay.
"These local-rate clerical per-
sonnel are hired without having
to comply fully with the require-
ments prescribed by the United
State Civil Service Commisison.
"I mean by this that ear own
citizens are not being given the
opportunity of competing with
these aliens in open competi-
tive examination and subse-
quent placement on an eligible
register for certification In ac-
cordance with their attained
i grade.
"I consider this contrary to the
spirit and Intent of the CivM
{Service Act of Jan. 16, 1883, and
en outright violation of the
birthright of our. sons and
! daughter who may aspire to be-
"innlng a career in low-grade
lobs as so many of their fathers
land mothers before them have
l done."
Pilot Testifies
On The Effects
Of Local Climate
The president of the Canal Pil-
ots* Association, Capt. Wi 111 a m
Wall, was called upon to speak at
length on the debilitating effects
of the local climate on the pilots
a "an occupational hazard.
Rep. 'Francis E. Dora (R-N.Y.)
asked Wall whether the effects of
the climate are the same here for
pilots as for other workers.
Wall, who denied- this, explained
that the debilitating work of the
pilots is exaggerated by long
hours of.standing on a ship, and
the terrific glare of Uie sun.
Sinclair told the congress men
that the testimony to be given by
GCEOC spokesmen would be ful-
ly supported by that organization,
and that the union's legisla t i v e
representatives in Washington

Wall testified that pilots are

may sit around for hours.
"Our hours of work are so un-
certain, so unsure that sometime
they extend to 24 hours, snd usual-
ly average 15 hours steady work."
Wall also pointed to a "peculiar
situation'' which existed here. He
said that not even the Governor
