Fight for Advantages. President Glass said the American Federation of Government Employes will make an uncompromising fight to win back for Federal workers the ad- vantages they have lpst by the economy act.

GLASSFORD IS SILENT ON ALLEGED REMARKS Said to Have Declared Democrats Are Making “Political Capital” of B. E. F. Eviction. Brig. Gen. Pelham D. Glassford, superintendent of police, declined today to comment on a printed statement attributed to him that the Democratic party is making “political capital” out of the evicticn of the bonus army, but declared emphatically “there is no in- tention on my part to retract any state- ment I have made” with reference to the eviction. Gen. Glassford pointed out he had been assured by the president of Argo Lodge. B'nai Brith, where the state- . ment is purported to have been made that he would not be quoted in news- papers. In a statement today, he said: “Last night I addressed the Argo Lodge of the B'nai B'rith at the Jewish Community Center and was assured by the president, Mr. Simon Hirshman, that no reporters were present and that nothing I might say or answers that I might make to questions would be used in the press. I have no comments to make in reference to the remarks at- tributed to me by the Washington Post this morning. There is no intention on my part to retract any statement I have made herstofore in reference to the eviction of unemployed veterans.” FRAZIER REFUSES 70 SUPPORT HOOVER Senator Fails to Declare Himself Any Presidential Candidate. | for By the Associated Press.

POSTAL ECONONY | NETHODS SEORE House Committee to Protest! to President on Substi- tute Workers. By the Associated Press. A House post office subcommittee was designated today to protest to Presi- dent Hoover over the way the economy act is being administered in the Post Office Department. Representatives Mead, Democrat, of New York; Keily and Kendall, Repub- licans of Pennsylvania, and Burch, Democrat, Virginia, will present the | protest tomorrow. | The decision was made at an execu- | subcommittee investigating the postal | service. | Chairman Mead said “We will call on the President to explain that First As- sistant Postmaster Generai Coleman fis | not administering the law with regard | to employnfent of substitute postal em- pioyes under the economy act. “We will explain that the Post Office Department can keep well within the appropriations and at the same time ad- minister the economy law in a humars- tarian way and in keeping with the intent of Congress. Further Saving Suggestion. “If it is found that any further sav- ing is required, we will suggest to the President that he let the Postmaster | General apply the same rate of reduc- tions to the subsidies and the post office leases, some of which are notoriously | corrupt. “The committee feels that those in- | terests including air mail and ship op- | erators receiving subsidies and those| having post office leasing contracts | should take a commensurate reduction : along with the decline in prices gen- erally.” ‘The committee favors a return to the 2-cent stamp on first-class mail. | After its session yesterday afterroon, | this group, a subcommittee of the| House Post Office Committee, gave among its reasons the reduced voiume | of first-class mail since the 3-cent rate | went into effect as a provision of the | ane the budget. ‘The committee zlso said it advocated this step because of its desire “to luild | up mails 50 as to provide more revenue and work opportunities for the postal employes and substitutes, who are being deprived of employment as a result of the decreased postal busiress.” Headed by Representative Mead, the committee began its probe with Post Office Building conditions. Mead urged dispensing with “red tape” to expedite construction to give employ- ment. L. C. Martin, aide to Ferry K.

Relief Law Program. Martin said the architect’s office is working overtime to handle the relief law program, and James A. Wetmore, supervising architect, added that 50 per cent of the architectural work is being alloted private concerns for greater speed. Mead contended, in discussing postal employment, that the department’s ad- ministration of the economy law, in- stead of giving 20,000 men work under the furlough plan, is “driving 20,000 substitutes in the service to starvation.” STRAIGHT RE.PEAL PLANK WINS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE By the Associated Press. CONCORD, N. H, September 29.— New Hampshire Democrats, in conven- tion yesterday, wrote a straight repeal plank into their platform, listed the economic situation was their major issue and launched a campaign that leaders promised would be the party's greatest offensive in a decade. The State convention received with enthusiasm an expression of “hope and belief” by former Representative George H. Combs of Missouri that Alfred E. Smith soon would take an active part in the Roosevelt campaign and a pre- diction by Gov.-elect Louis J. Brann of Maine that the Democratic victory in his State was “a signal of what is to happen in the rest of the Nation.” Former Gov. Fred H. Brown, Demo- cratic candidate for the United States Senate against the veteran Republican George H. Moses, declared that present economic _conditions had ‘“come about in the administration of the superman Hoover, assisted in part by Senator Moses.” “It seems to be agreed,” he added, “that the major issue of the campaign is the economic situation.” Other planks urged drastic reduction in taxes and governmental costs, can- cellation of loans made by the State to towns and cities for emergency relief work, abolition of the poll tax for wom- en, repeal of a law disfranchising per- sons unemployed and receiving welfare aid and restricting award of highway contracts to State contractors, with employment preference to New Hamp- shire citizens.

WORCESTER, Mass, September 29. —Police throughout the country today were on the watch for two New York autombiles, the occupants of which Worcester police believe might help in the investigation of the bombing Tues- day of the home of Judge Webster Thayer. The cars were registered to North- port and Glendale, N. Y., men, and the police said they wanted to question the occupants as they had received reports that they had acted suspiciously near the Thayer home Monday night or early Tuesday morning. Search Turns Toward Italy. Investigation by State and Federal authorities turned toward Italy. They sought information concerning a man who was with Niccolo Sacco and Bar- tolomeo Vanzetti, who were sentenced to death by Judge Thayer, on the day the slaying of a Braintrce watchman, the crime which led up to the now fa- mous Sacco-Vanzetti case. The man sought disappeared from Braintree on the day of the slaying and despite Nation-wide efforts no trace of him was found until recently when he was located in a prison in Italy. ‘The authorities believe the man was released soon after he was located in | the prison and they are now anvious to | find him in the hope that he may reveal some information jn connection with the Thayer case. Thefts Checked Up. The Worcester police continued their general investigation of the bombing while the State police gave their efforts to a check-up on the thefts of dynamite in recent months. Experts have defi- nitely determined that the bomb which partially wrecked the judge's home was made up of dynamite and wes set off by a black powder fuse. Judge Thayer spent the night at the home of a neighbor, where he has been a guest since the explosion, while his wife remained a patient at Memorial | Hospital. She is recovering from cuts and bruises received in the blast. e Painter and Etcher Dies. BERLIN, September 29 (#).—Emil Orlik, the well known painter and etcher, died here yesterday in his 63d year.

The death of John Sharp Williams, who, when he retired in 1923, said he'd “rather be a dog baying at the moon than stay in the Senate another six years,” created lively reminiscence yes- terday among old-timers in the Capitol. Pormal tribute was paid him by Sen- ator Pat Harrison, from Mississippi, the State he represented in Congress for more than a quarter of a century and the one to which he retired to spend his last years in the quiet of his plan- tation, But the unofficial comment of those who “knew him when” was just as lsudatory. All agreed that he was a worthy rep- resentative of the standard set for southern statesmen by Calhoun and Clay—cultured, “quick on the trigger” in repartee and, when the occasion ‘warranted, quick-tempered, too. Recalled by Clerk. William Tyler Page, former clerk of the House, knew him when he was a lithe young Representative. “Jim” Preston, now Senate librarian, recalled his habit, s a Senator, of cupping his hand behind an ear, the better to hear debate; his habit of strolling slowly up and down the aisles; the “gates ajar” collar he wore; his carelessly fastidious dress, and how his mellow voice rolled up to the galleries once he began speak- ing. The tale was told about the time former Senator Heflin of Alabama com- plained that an airplane had inter- rupted his remarks at a public gather- ing. “Why should anybody quarrel with a thing which makes a noise in competi- tion with a Senator making a noise?” John Sharp drawled. “They are both equally noisy and, between the two, the airplane is the more scientific nolse.” ‘There was the time former Senator McCumber of North Dakota brought the cuckoo clock into the Senate chamber to illustrate a weighty argument on the tariff. The Mississippi Senator, to Mc- Cumber’s discomfiture, began to play with the clock. The tariff discussion | took time out for a roar of laughter as the cuckoo darted out of its cubby hole |and threw a series of seemingly indig- nant chirps at Senator Williams. Wit and Sense of Humor. | It was only natural that recollections should dwell upon his wit and sense of humor, but his ability and knowledge were unquestioned. There are many who will never forget his reply to the elder La Follette during debate on the | war resolution. Massive-headed Bob sat down and the slender, courtly figure | ing_address by: | “Mr, President, if immortality could be attained by verbal eternity, the Legislation calling for resubmission would be formulated by Sumners' com- mittee. During the last session the com- mittee reported unfavorably the Beck- Linthicum amendment, but it was brought out on the floor for a vote by means of a petition signed by 145 mem- bers of the House. It later failed of adoption. - ROBBER GETS 10 YEARS TACOMA, Wash,, September 29 (#).— While his slender. 19-year-old wife worked frantically to quiet the squeals of their toddling baby, W. J.

And there was none to say the bandits nay—because, with a short-wave radio tuned to the frequency of the police broadcasting station, they kept an excellent check on the activities of roving police cars. “I talked back,” said little Miss Mil- dred Fair, who goes to Central High School. ~ “They grabbed me and one said: ‘If you don't shut up I'll*shoot your head off.’” Pockets were searched and cash tumbled out.

E. F., “both for the welfare of the unemployed and for the prevention of disorders,” is opposed to any effort to concentrate large groups of jobless men and women in the Cap- ital, 1t was declared in a letter sent by the organization today to mayors of all American cities. Over the signature of R. B. Ellison, national organizer of the group, the letter expressed belief that “the Gov- ernors of the States and the mayors of the cities, if they do not already realize the seriousness of the situation. shou'd awaken to its gravity rnd take such measures as seem necessary to prevent the threatened movement.” Opposes Another March. Another march to Washington, the letter states, can result “only in suffer- ing and, perhaps, bloodshed for the marchers, while subversive elements are talking revolution and envisioning over- throw of the Government.” To avoid this, the letter asks the mayors to co-operate in the establish- ment of billets “where the unemployed and their families may find shelter and warmth during the Winter.” Such billets, the letter points out, can be established in va~snt houses and other buildings, the jobless occupants repaying the owners by repairing and Tenovating the structures Would Aid Comfort. “This suggestion is not made” the letter states. “with the idea of estab- lishing small-scale communes, any more than it is proposed that it should bring the unemployed under police es- fonage or control, but solely with the ope and in the firm belief that such a plan would contribute to the com- fort and protection of these unfortunate men end women.” A eimilar letter sent to Governors recently was unavailing, according to N N Thrifty People 1316-1328 SEVENTH ST.N.W.
