M. Christianson, fed- eral relief administrator for the state, said. North and South Dakota are the first two states to terminate civil works employment, which in other states ends March 31. A work-relief program is contem: plated, Judge Christianson said, to carry on all desirable local and civil works projects. While this program succeeds the civil works, it is in no sense a continuation as far as per- sons assigned to work are concerned, the judge explained. Employment will be on a different basis to con- form with regulations providing that federal funds “shall be used to pro- vide employment only for persons in need of relief.” Workers will be selected and as- signed by relief administrators of the various counties, with no labor pref- erences. It is contemplated, as far as possible, to pay relief in cash to those who work. the first week of operations it may be difficult to set up machinery and payment will be made in kind or cash until (Copyrighi, 1934, Associated Press) Hong Kong, China, March 15.—(?) —A gallant tribute to British tars who saved 187 American sailors from fiery death on the flaming gunboat Pulton came Thursday from the Ful- ton’s skipper, Commander Harry Mc- Henry, U. 5.

Judge Christianson explained that the new set-up embraces work-relief on & more comprehensive scale than the former work-relief program. The former program included certain pub- lic improvements in various counties and cities, while it is now contem- plated to carry on all desirable local and civil works projects, with estab- lishment in the relief administration of a work division for planning conduct of those eligible for relief.

Simpson Dies in Wash- ington After Attack by Heart Ailment Washington, March 15.—(#)—John A. Simpson, 64, of Oklahoma City, president of the National Farmers Union and for two decades a leader in the battles of the American agri- culturist, died early Thursday in Emergency hospital here. The last act of his long career be- fore legislative bodies was an appear- } ance Wednesday before the senate fi- nance committee, where he spoke in Opposition to a proposed fedcral gas- oline tax. He left the committee room and collapsed in the senate office build- ing with a: heart ailment that had necessitated frequent treatment for some time. Physicians ascribed his death to Clogging of the arteries leading to the heart. The body will be sent to Oklahoma City probably Friday. Funeral arrangements have not been announced. Simpson was born at Salem, Neb., and was educated at the University of Kansas. He was for a time siate accountant of Nebraska, going later to Oklahoma and engaging in the banking business and later only in farming.

Behind closed doors, possibly late Thursday, conferees from senate and house planned to try for an agree- ment on payments to veterans and government workers. Suddenly soft- ened demands were voted by the house Wednesday night. The senate some time ago tacked amendments on the independent of- fices bill, adding about $354,000,000 to veterans benefits and payment to fed- eral employees. This the adminis- vation considered a blow at the econ- omy program and a veto by the pres- ident was threatened. The house modified the measure Wednesday night, cutting the expen- ditures down to about $261,000,000. House Democrats, after once bolt- ing their leaders, capitulated sud. denly to open the way to an agree- ment. Here are some of the amendments adopted by the house: Would Restore “Presumptives’ A $90,000,000 compromise by Rep resentative Taber (Rep., N. Y.) to re- store 29,000 World War presumptive cases to the pension rolls perman- ently at 75 per cent of the amount received before the economy act. Increased allowances to disabled World War veterans to cost about $30,000,000. Restoration of about $61,600,000 to, the Spenish-American war veterans through resumption of 75 per cent of their pre-economy act pensions. Restoration of five per cent of the federal employees 15 per cent pay cut now, and another five per cent July 1, It eliminated an amendment giv- ing added benefits to the victims and dcpendents of the Shenandoah, Ak- ron and J-3 dirigible disasters. It had appeared likely, as the house went into session We night that the administration might suffer three major defeats in a single day. House Democrats had revolted earlier when a binding rule was b. Senate Thumps Treaty The senate, almost simultaneously, had administered a thumping defeat to the president's St. Lawrence Wa- terway ratification request.
