FOULKE ASKS REASON
WHY CIVIL SERVICE WORKERS WERE FIRED
William Dudley Foulke, acting pres
ident of the National Civil Service Reform League, in a statement to the New York Times regarding the dismissal of certain employes of the Bureau of Engraving and Pointing at Washington, said: "President Harding on March 31 by executive order dismissed the director and thirty-one other subordinate employes of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, all of whom held positions in the competitive classified civil service. Section 6 of the act of Aug. 24, 1912. contains the following: " 'That no person in the classified civil service of the United States shall be removed therefrom except for such cause as will promote the efficiency of said service and for reasons given
in writing, and the person whose removal is sought shall have notice of the same and of any charges preferred against him,, and be furnished with a copy thereof, and also be allowed a reasonable time for personally answering the same in writing, and affidavits in support thereof; but no examination of witnesses nor any trial or hearing hall be required except in the discretion of the officer making the removal. ' ; "On I April 4 we wrote to the president and the secretary of the treasury
;askingi if. reasons were given in any case, but we have received no reply. If employes are inefficient or corrupt they should be separated from the ser
vice without delay, but however grave
may have been the reasons behind
these removals, it is an act of simple (justice for the employes concerned to Sbe furnished with a statement of those reasons."

Youngstotvn Mayor Cats Police, Fire Departments (By Associated Press) YOUNGSTOWN, O.. April 12. With the approval of the Chamber of
Commerce, Mayor George L. Oles announced he would lay off within 10 days all members of the police and fire department except 25 in each department. There are 135 policemen and about 80 firemen at present. Those who want' additional fire and police protection must stand together and hire it, the mayor said. The city has ho money to pay salaries, and th; banks have refused to lend any, he said. ' All employes of the street cleaning department, will also be laid off. the mayor announced. Business men have
agreed in recent conferences called by the mayor and Chamber of Commerce that only drastic measures will recoup the city's finances. The bonded debts are so large that it requires two-thirds of the city income to meet interest and sinking funds, and each year the city has negotiated floating loans or emergency bond issues to meet its running expenses. This year the financial stringency reached a crisis with the banks refus
ing to lend any more for current expenses here.

The bayonets form the principal part of the machines and do their work by leverage. These machines are cheap and have become popular throughout Latvia, wood being the chief fuel used here, but the government has forbidden importation of any more, on the ground that the bayonets can easily be detached from the body of the machines for use as weapons.
