Members of the Wickersham Com- mission buckled down today to the task of winding up the major part of two years labor in a week. ‘The meeting started today was pos- sibly the commission’s last as he ses- sion convened, it was pointed out that reports on eight major crime investi- gations, remaining for completion be- fore July 1, might well keep the mem- gex;: busy until the early hours of that ate. The commission’s official life expires with June. In 25 months it has sub- mited four reports to President Hoover. Although only the finishing. touches were lacking on the eight or nine forth- corhing reports, it was likely that final agreement upon these would require some discussion. Nevertheless, & consensus among the members showed a considerable chlm in outlook from that of a month or more ago. At that time more than one mem- ber believed privately that the com- mission’s calendar might be so jammed as July 1 approached that their offices and clerical staff would be taken away for lack of funds without the work belng completed. Among the unfinished reports on the commission’s table today was one on deportation of aliens, part of which already has been the subject of a hzated Ifi)’l;n;ge letter from Secretary of Labor ak. Others include an investigation of lawlessness among Governmental ofil- cials, a discussion of prison conditions and the parole system, an inquiry into crime among the foreign born, and another into the work of various police forces. Latest word from the commission headquarters was that two or possibly three reports might be submitted to President Hoover before July 1. Ar- rangements have besn made whercby the remaining reports, if placed in the hands of the Government Printing Office by that date, may be paid for from what is left of the commission’s $500,000 appropriation. GROUND WATER COOL UNDER BLAZING SUN Tests Show Well for Commerce Building Consistently at 51 Degrees. The subsurface water which will be used to cool the executive offices of the Department of Commerce and probably other Government buildings remains cool under the hottest sun of a Wash- ingion Summer, according to tests made of the water. In a well under the new Internal Revenue Building a thermometer has given consistent proof of the under- ground water {emperature. The bottom of the well is 18 feet below the street and the well is 12 feet square It fills to the top in about 20 minutes with cool water, averaging about 51 de- grees in temperature. It has maintained this low temperature during the hot spell when the sireet air above surged up to around 100 degrees. The water recently found in the t:st well in rear of No. 1 police precinct, now cown to about 40 feet, has remained cool. This well is being due to furnish cool wat'r for an 2ir conditioning sys- i tem fer the new Post Office Department Building. Water was first found 16 feet below street level.

SHOWERS T0 BRING RELIEF FROM HEAT Bureau for Both Tonight and Tomorrow. Relief in the form of local showers dur'ng the next 48 hours was assured by Weather Bureau officials today over half the Atlantic Coast, from Virginia to New England. The changed condi- tions, which started yesterday after a torrid week end. were caused by thun- dershowers in Maryland and Western Pennsylvania. Despite a slight shower before 10 o'clock, the sun began to warm up the city. But weather officials said the afternoon would be cloudy, with rain tonight and tomorrow, which would make up for the mid-day heat. There will not bs much change in temperature. It was not expected that the maximum would quite reach yesterday's high mark of 82 degrees at 2 p.m. At 8 am. today, the temperature registered 74 degress and by 10:30 NT | 0'clock had arisen 2 points. The ac- companying humidity, 12 per cent greater than yesterday at 8 o'clock, would account for some of the dis- — | comfort, it was said. STON To CHICAGO.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 23.—District At- torney Elvin N. Edwards of Nassau| County said today that Dr. G. Jameson | Carr, ship’s surgeon, who was to testify before the grand jury later in the day in its inv:stigation of the death of Starr Faithfull, had retained Samuel Unter- myer as counsel. Before appearing before the grand jury, Mr. Edwards said, Dr. Carr planned to go before Tounty Judge | Lewis J. Smith and ask him to d:fine the rights of the grand jury in case it | should ask him to violate his profes- sional ethics. Dr. Carr is registered in Scotland, | Mr. Eqwards explained, and the ethi-| cal code for medical men in Scotland is | strictir than it is in this country. Jury Expects Letters. Dr. Carr and Mr. Untermyer arrived in Mineola shortly before 11 am. (E. S. T.) and, after a brief conference between Mr. Untermyer and Mr. Ed- wards, Dr. Carr was taken into the grand jury room. Dr. Carr was expected to turn over to | the grand jury three letters from the | girl, which he brought from England. | The contents of only one letter have | b.en made public. Stanley £ Faithtull, ‘nmwd at Mineola early today, express- | ing indignation over Dr. Carrs state- | ments to the press in which he wns' | quoted as saying he did ot know the | | Faithfull family very w:ll and had| never known the girl socislly. The| Faithfulls had said he was an old fam- ily friend. Dr. Carr canceled a vacation to Be]-‘ gium to volunteer in clearing up th:| mystery of the beauty’s drowning on the Long Beach coast and arrived in New York yesterday on the steamship | Laconia with the three l-tters. The doctor said he had no theories as to the death. He refused to make the letters public. The on>, in which Starr apologized for getting drung on Lhe‘ Franconia, May 29, was given out be- | fore his arrival by Nassau County su- thorities. Stanley E. Faithfull, Starr's step-fa- ther, branded the letter as fals:. The letter was not in Starr's style, he said. Doctor Parries Questions. Dr. Carr gave little information to re- porters on his arrival in New York Cit “Wera you surpriscd at her death?” they asked. “It is 40 years since I've been sur- prised.” “Is it correct you said in Boston Miss | Faithfull was charming and beautiful?” | —this from a woman reporter. “All women are b:autiful and charm- ing,” he bowed. Other questions about the girl lnd\ her affairs Dr. Carr refused to answer | on_grounds of professional ethics. Other witnesses called before the grand jury today included the Faithfull family, several detectiv:s and a taxi driver, who drove Starr Faithfull from the pier a day before her disappearance, and two women who saw her at the ! Grand Central Terminal June 4—the day before she vanished. CONTRACT IS AWARDED FOR HEAT PIPE TUNNEL A contract for $19,950 was awarded today to J. B, McCrary of Atlanta, Ga., by Lieut. Col. U. 8.

ARDMORE, Okla., June 23—With 15 witnesses subpoenaed, Marvin Shilling, Carter County attorney, sald today the State was ready to begin the trial here tomorrow of Williem E. Guess and Cecil Crosby, former deputy sheriffs, charged with the slaying of Emilio Cortes Rublo and Manuel Gomez, Mexican students. Shilling said he would call about half a dozen witnesses who had not ap-| peared in the preliminary hearing 10 days ago, but that their storles would add little new to the case. “The new witnesses either were in hearing distance of the point on the ! highway where the fatal shooting of the students occurred or arrived shortly afterward,” Shilling said. Attorneys representing the Governor's office and that of the attorney general, and M. C. Gonzales, San Antonio, rep- resenting the Mexican government, will appear at the State counsel table. Young Cortes Rubio, a kinsman of Mexfcan President Ortiz Rubio, and Gomez were returning to their homes with a fellow countryman, Salvador Cortes Rubio, when accosted by the deputies as they stopped briefly at the roadside on the edge of Ardmore late Sunday night, June 7. Guess and Crosby at the preliminary hearing asserted the youths had pro- duced pistols and Guess had fired. | Crosby testified he did not shoot. Rev. John S. Price, pastor of the | Calvary Presbyterian Church here, has | been appointed as special sheriff for | the trial. The sheriff, Elmer Boyd, dis- qualified himself because of his former official connection with the defendants, who resigned to face trial. A. P. Champlon of counsel for the; | defense said today separate trials would | be requested when the case is called to- morrow. LICENSE DECISION FORR. C. A.

NEW YORK, June 23.—George Rob- ert Gabor, 25, native of Hungary, was in jail today while Federal authorities | were investigating his boastful tale of how he imposed on personages.

The Governor of Illinois presented him to the Legislature. Gov. Kohler of Wisconsin also was duped by Gabor.
