Wirt, Gary, Ind., school superintendent, is certain to get a chance to name the “brain trusters” i plications for Coverage i E The Workmen's Compensation Bu- reau is swamped with county, city, township and school district applica- tions for premiums on work relief projects, according to Jack Pfeiffer, secretary of the bureau. When the United States govern- ment ceased the CWA work on March 15, and inaugurated its new program | of furnishing relief on a basis of need, it turned the insurance of workmen empioyed on those projects over to the political subdivisions, and as work cannot begin until the insurance is written, the compensation bureau has been suddenly buried in a flood of ap- | Plications that demand immediate | attention. Several problems confront the bu- Teau as a result. Many of the subdi- | visions are not in position to pay cash for their premiums and are of- fering registered warrants to the bu- reau. The number is piling up daily, Pfeiffer said Tuesday. If the warrants are accepted in pay- ment, and he doesn’t see how the bu- reau can refuse to accept them, it will! tie up a big fund which may cripple the bureau badly within a very short time. Experience Has Been Bad ‘The experience of the government with accidents while the CWA was operating was not encouraging, as the number of mishaps reached alarming proportions. Most of the accidents were caused by putting men at work to which they were not accustomed. ‘The government conducted classes in safety and first aid and the state will gain something from that, Pfeiffer be-' leves. The compensation bureau has no appropriation to put inspectors on the jobs to see that reasonable safety rules are complied with, he said. The government had 15 or 20 men on that work all winter and even then could not keep the accidents down. : ‘The, bureau is short of funds, due to cutting of the appropriation for operating expense by the 1933 legisla- ture, and cannot hire extra help to! take care of the rush work, Pfeiffer said, so the present force will have to put in @ lot of extra hours so relief projects can be started as soon as pos- sible. ‘The bureau will make an effort to finance the registered “ warrants through the Bank of North Dakota, if the burden becomes too great, he said.

The only question Tuesday was which branch of government — con- gress or the department of justice— would make the investigation. An effort will be made in the house Tuesday to have @ congressional com- mittee do the job. Speaker Rainey, on the other hand, believes the justice department should do it. Several of President Roosevelt's professional advisers termed the mat- ter a “joke.” Most declined to even ‘discuss it. Still others were reported reliably to have denied making such statements as Dr. Wirt listed in a let- ter before the house commerce com- mittee. Professor William F. Ogburn of the University of Chicago, said: “Dr. Wirtz states that the ‘new dealers’ hold out hope for recovery, {so that a revolution may take place. I challenge him to name one man in, the so-called ‘brain trust’ who ts not interested in the welfare and recovery of the country.” Among other assertions in Dr. Wirt's letter were that an unnamed “brain truster” told him months ago that Roosevelt was only the “Keren- sky” of the revolution then being planned; that he would be supplanted by a “Stalin,” and that some presi- dential advisers were seeking to ham- per business recovery to bring about this end. Representative Bulwinkle( Dem., (N. C.), said he would seek to gain unanimous consent in the house Tues- day to bring up for immeidate action his resolution to investigate the “truth or falsity” of the charges. SCORES BRAIN TRUST EFFORTS AT REFORM Gary, Ind., March 27. — (#) — Dr. William A. Wirt, educator, said Tues- day that “brain trusters” should seek to “get us out of the depression first and then bring up thir social reform legislation.” He told of investigations which, he said, led him to make his sensational charges that some unnamed advisers of the president admitted plotting revolution, The educator explained his views only a few hours after he said he had received a death threat from a person signing himself “A faithful member of the United States of America Royal Citizen Secret Society.” It carried a Buffalo, N. Y., postmark, “If some one must be sacrificed to make the people aware, I am willing,” he said. Dr. Wirt said economics is not too esoteric for high school students and the man in the street. It has been made to sound difficult by profes- sors.” a « ~ Immediately following its devout observance of Holy Week, Seville, Spain, becomes the scene of the gayest frolic of the year, when natives and visitors flock to this city of Moorish heritage for the Easter fiera, or fair, lasting several days.
