Efforts to destroy it led to the dis- covery, for an acetylene torch used to cut through the steel frame ignited the garage.

GLAZIER RACKET QUIZ | STARTED IN CHICAGO { Prosecutors Charge $500,000 a Year Yielded to “Union” System. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, February 22.—A glazier racket, which prosecutors said yielded approximately $500,000 a year to a so- called “union” system, was under in- vestigation of the special grand jury today. As the start of what the State's at- torney’s office said would be a deter~ mined drive against rackets, 20 glass contractors were called in yesterday to tell of their ‘dealings with self-styled union heads who forced monthly tributes from them.

By the Assoclated Press. Opponents of the crulser construction program have been beaten in their ef- forts to keep the naval appropriation bill from being taken up by the Senate. After voting yesterday to take up the bill, the Senate also reached an agree- ment to restrict debate on the measure after 3 p.m. today. This was taken to mean that the naval bill would pass and that money provided i it to begin work on five during this fiscal year would be It was feared that opposition to the bill might resuit in a filibuster, but two other thréatened filibusters still remain to be dealt with. Senator Walsh of Montana has expressed strong opposi- ton to a provision in the Interior De- partment bill which would give the Sec- retary of the Interior the right to con- demn privately owned lands-in national parks. Walsh proposed a compromise to provide that the Secretary would be prohibited from condemning any pri- vate dwellings, h”"’,l:‘ or property used lous organizations.

Hale Makes Concession. Before the agreement to limit debate on the naval appropriation bill was reached, Senator Hale of Maine, a spon- sor of the cruiser construction program, made a concession to the - opposition when he said he would amend the bill to provide only $200,000 for work on the cruisers during this fiscal year.

NEW YORK, February 22.—After a belated visit of Winter, the Eastern por- tion of the country today was flounder- ing out of the worst snowstorm of the season. The storm, sweeping in on a north- east wind, spread a thick covering of snow from Malne to the Carolinas and westward to the Mississippi Valley. Severely low temperatures were record- ed in many sections. The deaths of 12 persons, injury to several others, and numerous minor ac- cidents were attributed to the snow and cold. Shipping was hampered and rail- road schedules disrupted. In some sec- tions drifting snow blocked highways, while only strenuous efforts by aug- mented maintenance gangs kept roads open in other portions. 7 Inches in New York, A fali of seven inches brought out the maximum snew fighting force in New York, where officials estimated 22,000 men were clearing the lanes of heaviest traffic with the ald of a huge fleet of plows, scrapers, brushes and cks, ‘The liner Leviathan and other vessels were delayed, being held outside the }:;{bdor undl the curtain cf snow had Rapid transit lines and railroads en- teri the city experienced some delay, but there was no interruption of traffic.
