Oct. 12.—OP)—Abo . lition of five positions and a decrease in the salaries paid annually by the State of $10,232 were thf outsrand ■ iug features of the report of the Sal ary and Wage Commission jnade pub lie here Saturday night. Accompany ing the 56 page book wh'ch contain ed the action and recommendations of the Commission' as to state em ployes, their salaries working hours, j holidays, schedules of pay for certain [ positfbns aiul a mass of other data, ! was a statement explaining and sum- I marizing the Commission’s work. Th> J report was approved by Governor Me- i Lean. The state insurance department, j jto suffer ds to employes. The Com- I mission recommended tlie abortion of j positions held by live safety education agents and two fire investigators. The saving annually by this was given as $13,300 in salaries and $6,641.75 in expenses.

The figures were bas ed upon data assembled as of April 15 and become effective first. *‘The purpose of the Conuhission.” j said the statement issued with the report, “was not, as conceived by some. | merely to cut salaries and wages, but | rather to classify and place oh a bus iness basis the compensation paid em ployes of the State. The Commission spent approximately six months hi the work assigned so it and after mature j consideration made its report to the Governor on October 1, 2925. “The Commission found in some in stances inefficient employes were be ing paid salaries higher than efficient employes in other departments. In some instances in the same depart ment different salaries were paid to I employes of comparatively the same degree of efficiency, training and ser vice. It has been the purpose to eliminate inequalities and discrimina tions wherever found and while the Commission realizes that the full ben | etits arising from its work will not be immediate and that some errors will have to be eliminated when they are made apparent by the p ractical work ing of the plan, it believes that the report will justify the action of the! General Assembly in enacting the law I and that by following up the work | fts outlined in this report much per- j manent good will result.” *. * * “The Commission lias provided first: , classification of employes according to the duties assigned them by tb£ heads of departments; and second: has prescribed a range of salaries and wages for each class of employes. “Uniform working hours, sick leave and vacation leave have been provid ed in the rules, thus preventing one employe from obtaining advantage over others.” The statement adds that each de partment head is left free to select his own employes under certain rules •Collins Denny, in charge of North Carolina Methodism, president.

WITNESSFOR INQUIRY BQARD Says Aviation Must Be | Taken From Army and Navy If Forward Steps I Are to Be Taken Now. 1 -x ! Washington. Oct. 12.— UP) —The Army and Navy were charged today by Chairman Sladden, of the House appropriations committee, with squan dering millions of dollars “in a pur poseless, meaningless, endless experi mental orgy,” in technical airsraft de , velopment. 1 Test'fying before the President's air board which resumed hearings after a recess of several days, Mr. Madden declared technical development of av iation could no longer be “safely left” to the two military services if the United States was to’ take its place “among the countries of the world in the air." “If credit is to be given witnesses’ who have preceded me," he asserted, “the experimental development work conducted by the army and navy since the war has been productive o’ very little if any advance toward a plan which might be accepted by Con gress.” “You have been told by men who should know, that with few exceptions no real steps have boon made.” lie said. Citing testimony of Major General Mason Patrick, chief of the irmy air service, that 202 pursuit planes purs chased by the army have been found deficient iu vision requirements, Mr. Madden said he had “heard something cf a charge of criminal negligence, but that borders on criminal waste.”. “Think of buying 262 pursuit planes that a pilot has difficulty in seeing out of,” failure of the army aud navy to spend their money “intelligently” in the air service, he declared, is rot unique as “similar extravagances get nowbere programs are being carried on in tank development, artillery de velopment. chemical warfare, and am munition development.” A message from Charlotte states that the condition of Miss Constance Cline, who underwent an operation 1 at St. Peter’s Hospital at 9:30 this morning, is very favorable.

Melbourne, Fla., Get. 12. — (A 3 ) — , While fishermen and others were searching today for three missing holl ies of 14 persons who were drowned j here yesterday when the Clara A, a 40-foot pleasure launch, capsized, the bodies of 11 others which had been recovered were be'ng prepared for burial a*id shipment to their homes. Most of those who lost their lives were Kansas people here on a junket! to insjfrct Florida farm properties of j the Melbourne Farm Co. whose guests they were on the fatal excursion. The trip yesterday iu the Clara A was a part of the company’s program I of entertainment for their guests. It was the intention of Captain Ed ' Arnold, master of the little craft, to take them for a ride on the Atlantic Ocean, but after negotiating Sebas tian Inlet, 18 miles south of here, he decided the seas outside were too rough for his craft, so he attempted to turn back. Survivors said the boat did not re- ] spond to the helm quickly enough aud the waves swept over tier decks when | she was about a quarter around, j sweeping several from the deck. She j had not recovered from this shocy when a second wave hit her, swamp ing the boat. The heroic efforts of James Arnold, 12-year-old sou of Captain Arnold, saved the lives of four passengers who had been thrown into the raging breakers, when his father's launch turned turtle. Survivors said the lad swam nsho*e and obtained a small boat.

Well may the candidates | in this truly great offer ask them selves what they are going to do to- ; ward cinching one of the big auto mobiles in these all-important big vote days. They are t’ue crucial days of I t’lis content, the time when the ulti mate winners show strength in lliek' work and the time when the" lescier I candidates keep up only an ordinary j pace or drop into a slump. Six more days until midnight, Mon day, October 19th.

But now that it * looms in the near future it is brought more closely home that this coming week is the biggest time in the whole 1 campaign, the time when each one M • should do his or her utmost toward : piling up t’iie winning vote in the eloc j tion. It is important to realize that two, | three, four and five-year subscriptions, j especially the latter, are invaluable to ■ candidates in this first period. True, J net many of these can be command ed by any one person, but each one, no doubt had hopes of getting a few. Now is the time to get them in when they get the biggest vote. Just one five-year subscription to The Tribune gives the candidate producing it 250,- 000 votes and if new, 100,000 more. And to this is added the club value of the business. A five-year to The Times carries 100.000 if old and 150.- 000 if new. Just a few of these now can puj an jentirelx different aspect to the looks of any one’s standing in the campaign. The Cabarrus County Fair, which opens tomorrow for five days, i* due to be an appreciable factor in the campaign with the campaign depart ment having arranged for space in the automobile show tent in which will bo displayed the campaign auto -1 mobile prizes.
