Block Attempt to Promote Firemen
FIRE CHIEF Harry Fulmer's attempt to arbitrarily promote 10 privates and chauffeurs to lieutenants was thwarted today by Paul Robertson; safety board vice president, who insisted that the firemen take merit examinations. Chief Fulmer protested that the men involved were painters or mechanics with little experience in fire fighting and hence should not be required to abide by the usual merit procedures. When Mr. Robertson demanded that the promotions be made according to state law, which necessitates approval of the fire promotion board, Chief Fulmer said he would have to create a“ test whose most difficult problem would be no. more complicated than “differentiating between red and black.” “I dislike being arbitrary,” said the chief, “but it just so happens that we've never had merit examinations for firemen working in the garage.”

discussed the situatio and I told him that in my judgment, it would be better if he took another position in the government.” Slattery had testified earlier that Daniels on three occasions sought his resignation, but that he had refused to step out “while under fire.” Slattery charged that the national rural electric co-operative association and “cow college politicians” in the agriculture department were seeking his removal.
Slattery Asked Change
Daniels told the subcommittee, however, that Slattery himself suggested that some change might be necessary in REA, and told the President he was a ‘good soldier” who would follow orders. Slattery also suggested ‘that REA be transferred from the agriculture department to the Tennessee Valley Authority, Daniels said. Daniels testified that he had discussed REA troubles with Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard and that Wickard expressed his doubts of “the administrative capacity at that time of Slattery.” Wickard reviewed the’ history of REA and Slattery, Daniels testified, and “said he felt he had information on which to base his doubts.” “There were difficulties in morale, dissension within the organization —it was a highly complicated story of difficulties the REA had experienced,” Daniels told the subcommittee.
Changed His Mind
Daniels originally refused to testify on the grounds that he could not discuss matters of confidence between him and the President. His change of mind, following a conference with the President, delayed a test as to whether executive branch officials can refuse with impunity to testify before a congressional committee. The issue may arise again when the committee recalls Wickard, who also had refused to testify on the same grounds. It appeared prob-

Daniels said he first learned of alleged difficulties in REA from {John Carson, Washington repre- | sentative of the National Co-oper-{ative League of America, who urged [that former Senator George Norris (Ind.

ators alone were credited with shooting down 93 enemy planes, while the remaining 83, a new record, fell before the guns of escorting ang supporting fighters, In addition to the 10 American fighters lost, one allied fighter was Tepored missing. Exceeds Record
Conservative sources estimated that the 176 German planes destroyed represented about half the number, of fighters Nazi industry can produce monthly after the crippling blows inflicted by American bombers in the offensive against German aircraft centers a fortnight ago The al effects of the blitz against the fighter factories probably will not be felt for several weeks because of Germany's backlog of planes and the possibility of transferring still more squadrons from other fronts, but in the long run the incessant allied raids can be expected to drive the luftwaffe from the skies. The American losses in the Berlin attack exceeded the previous record of 60 bombers and five fighters in the Jan. 11 raids on fighter plants in central Germany. (A Swedish broadcast said four American heavy bombers made forced landings in Sweden yesterday. German dispatches claimed 129 American planes were shot down in the attack, including more than 100 four-engined bombers.)
