A4 waw THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, ID. C. Bank Takes Movie Films Of All Its Canceled Checks REREVAL OF AUTO CO0E S EXECTED Temporary Extension Fore- cast- After President Holds Conference. By the Associated Press. A temporary renewal of the automo- bile code without change, possibly un- til hearings can be held, was expected in some quarters today with the code’s expiration date only three days away. With an eye toward Capitol Hill and possible legislative operations on the entire N. R. A. set-up, President Roosevelt and his advisers studied the code without official comment yester- day. One observation from a conferee -was that the President might make a special announcement Friday, the ex- piration date, throwing some light on the future of the auto code and de- scribing his position on an N. R. A. re- port dealing with stabilization of the industry. Changes Not Expected. 1t appeared to be the belief of the official that the President would re- new the code “as is.” He also ob- served that code changes are not ordi- narily made until employers, employes and other interested parties are given opportunity to comment at formal hearings. Closeted with the President were Leon Henderson, who presented the N. R. A. report for stabilization; Donald Richberg, chairman of the N. R. A. Policy Committee; Secretary Pegkins, Clay Williams, chairman of the N. R. A. Board, and Leon Marshall, execu- tive secretary of the board. One of the code’s provisions most criticized by union leaders revolves around section 7-a of N. R. A. 7-a Declared Restricted. Under the auto code employers may hire and fire workers regardless of union affiliation. A. F. of L. leaders contend this is a restriction of the right of collective bargaining covered by 7-a. Meanwhile, a proposal of the Na- tional Coal Association Legislative Committee to extend the soft coal code two more years was before the N. R. A. It was in direct opposition to the wishes of the United Mine Workers, who favor legislation making coal a public utility and removing it from N. R. A. entirely. The coal industry also was faced with another knotty problem in the blanket expiration April 1 of all bitu- minous wage and hour contracts be- tween operators and miners. Former Senator C. W. Watson, representing Appalachian operators, and John L, Lewis, president of the mine workers, sent out calls to wage committees to meet here February 18 for parleys over new contracts affecting a half million workers. U. S. WOMAN WORKER KILLS SELF IN ROOM Miss Irene E. Dunne, 28, Found Dead of Gunshot ‘Wound. Irene E. Dunne, 28, employe of the Geological Survey Division of the In- terior Department, died last night of a self-inflicted gun-shot wound in the breast. Clothed, she lay in bed in her room at 1824 Belmont road when she fired the shot. On a small table at her side was a small Bible, which she had evi- dently been reading just previous to the suicide, and a note directing that a few small bills be paid from money left in her purse and asking that a brother in Texas be notified of her death. The note said, also, that she felt herself on the verge of a nervous breakdown and that she couldn’t stand her present circumstances of living any longer. Although Miss Dunne’s death was not discovered until this morning, when she failed to answer calls to breakfast, recollections of the persons with whom she was living make it reasonably cetrain that the shot was fired early last evening. Renting a room in an apartment with Mrs. Elsie English and the latter’s 16-year-old son Donald, Miss Dunne had come in from work shortly before 6 o'clock last night and had gone to her room. A few minutes later Donald, who was alone in an adjoining room, heard a sound like a muffled revolver shot and called to Miss Dunne. She answered, he sald this morning, and nothing more was done about the noise. The brother, whose name was left in the note, is Dr. M. A. Dunne of 123 Sixth street, Plainview, Tex. Police have wired him of his sister’s death. Another sister is belleved to live in Oklahoma. CRITICISM OF ICKES WITHDRAWN IN HOUSE Representatives Cox and Blanton Decide to Expunge Attacks From Record. By the Associated Press. . It looks as if there has been a change of heart towards Secretary Ickes in some congressional quarters since word got around that he won't hold the purse string on the $4,000,- 000,000 public works appropriation. At any rate, Representative Cox, Democrat, of Georgia, who had some remarks to make about the Secretary the other day, got permission from the House to expunge them from the records. Not to be outdone, Repre- sentative Blanton, Democrat, of ‘Texas, who had offered some equally sharp observations, obtained consent to do likewise. “Ickes nas been under fire a lot lately,” the Texan said, “and I don't believe in hitting a fellow when he’s down.” Representative Bulwinkle, Democrat, of North Carolina quickly interjected that “He’s not down by any means.” “Anyway, he's been under fire,” Blanton said. PLANS DEVELOPMENT Northeast Citizens’ Group to Dis- cuss Program Tonight. A comprehensive program for de- velopment and planning of the North- east section will be presented for con- sideration tonight at a special meet- ing of the Northeast Conference of Citizens’ Associations, at the police station, Seventeenth street and Rhode Island avenue. A. D. Calvert, chairman of the Committee on Development and Plan- ning, has prepared a report which he will present to the meeting. This subject has bc:n made the special order of business for the evening and the entire session will be devoted to this subject.

In order to provide record of checks after they have been returned to each depositor and possibly thrown paway or lost, the McLachlen Bank- ing Corp. is making this new type of bank records. The pictures can be seen at any time in case the bank patron cannot make his balance agree with the bank’s figures, or in case he might wish check evidence for use in court cases.

By the Assoclated Press. | NEW YORK, January 29.—Federal | agents joined police today in an at- | tempt to solve the mystery of the | disappearance of $1,450,000 in United | States Treasury notes from a Wall | Street brokerage office. The authorities spent hours ques- | tioning financial messengers as they sought to learn how a wallet contain- | ing the securities could vanish from an 8-by-10-foot room as the man who | had charge of them stood only & few feet away. Besides the Treasury notes, wallet contained $6,000 in bonds. All the securities are negotiable and are insured. Loss Occurred Yesterday. The disappearance occurred yes- terday in the messengers’ room of the brokerage office of C. J. Devine & Co. George Blossfield, 65-year-old mes- | senger of the Bank of the Manhattan Co., had left the bank with $2,300,- 1000 in securities to be delivered at | four places. The Devine office was his first stop, and he delivered $550,~ 000 in Treasury notes there. It was learned, however, that addi- tional securities were to have been sent to the brokerage firm, so Bloss- the back to the bank to find out about them. Blossfield said he placed his wallet on a table and then waited until McCarthy returned with the addi- tional securities for the Devine firm. Blossfield handed the packet in at a window and then turned back to the table to find the wallet gone. He questioned other messengers in the room at the time, but none saw the wallet disappear. None Left With Wallet. McCarthy, who was waiting in an outside room, also said he saw no one leave with the wallet. The police, after questioning all messengers who had delivered securi- ties to the Devine firm yesterday, were inclined to believe the theft was an “gceidental job,” or “spontaneous snatch,” but one official ventured the opinion a “specialist” was at work. United States Attorney Martin Con- boy entered the investigation along with Department of Justice agents. —_— MRS. P. A. ARNOLD SUES Charges Husband With Cruelty in Asking Divorce. Mrs. Eunice B.

Representative Jennings Randolph, Democrat, of West Virginia, who heads the House investigation into crime in Washington, has seen the National Capital’s underworld at first hand. Taking a squad of detectives, he started out lt'qmmnlght and ended up at dawn. Randolph was enthusiastic over his adventure. “I have advised every member of the Crime Investigating Committee to go out as I did and see the under- world at first hand,” he sald. “If we jare going to investigate crime, we ought to know something about it and see things for ourselves.” Randolph said he took in the dance 2 halls of Ninth street, the emporiums of Washington’s Harlem and the cities where dishonest bank officials | b field sent his guard, John McCarthy, | GIRL SAVES LIFE OF BURNING MAN Jumps From Moving Auto and Throws Blanket - Around Worker. The fact that Miss Marion Olivet, 23, Board of Education clerk, is a girl of action probably saved a life last night when the blazing body of a col- ored man suddenly appeared alongside her automobile on the Baltimore Boulevard at Hyattsville. Miss Olivet had driven to the Uni- versity of Maryland for her father, an employe there, and was returning with him to their home at 2705 Bla- densburg road northeast. As the Olivet car drove onto the rail- road overpass at Hyattsville, the girl saw a burst of flame and a body issue from the rear of a heavy truck, which was preceding west on the boulevard. The girl's father, Charles Olivet, was driving at the time, but could not im- mediately halt the automobile because of ice. Miss Olivet, however, hastily snatched an old Army blanket from the rear seat and leaped from the car while it still was in motion. She ran back to the flaming body and wrapped the blanket about the man, who gath- ered it about him as he rolled in the snow at the edge of the highway. The flames were quickly extinguished. The Bladensburg Fire Rescue Squad removed the man to a Washington hospital. He was tentatively identified as Cornelius Alexander, 35, of this city. He had been tending a stove de- signed to keep a truckload of bananas from freezing. The stove exploded, scattering blazing fuel over the helper, who was unable to attract the atten- tion of the driver as he leaped to the ighway. Unaware that the rear end of the truck was burning, the driver pro- ceeded several miles before the flames were extinguished by the Bladensburg Fire Department. WOMEN TO DISCUSS SECURITY FROM WAR Patriotic Conference on National Defense Opens Tomorrow at Mayflower. Security from war and not prepared- ness for war will be the theme of the tenth Women's Patriotic Conference on National Defense, opening tomor- row at the Mayflower Hotel, according to Mrs. Albion C. Carlson of Willmar, Minn., national president of the American Legion Auxiliary, who will preside. Approximately 1,000 delegates, rep- resenting 39 women's organizations | with 8 membership of about 1,000,000, | are scheduled to attend the meetings, | which will continue through Friday. “Peace is the first interest of the 1,000,000 women who will be repre- sented at the conference,” Mrs. Carl- son said. “They will send representa- tives to the conference to leamn how they can work in a practical, effective {way to make the United States more | secure from war. They are willing to | i think realistically about the problem | of maintaining peace and this brings them to the conclusion that under present world conditions the country’s peace must be protected by adequate armed forces.” Preliminary meetings were to be held today. Tomorrow night Secretary of War Dern, Rear Admiral Joseph K. Taus- sig. acting chief of naval operations, !and Frank N. Belgrano, jr. com- | mander of the American Legion, are slated to speak.

TOPEKA, Kans,, January 29.—MaJ. Paul R. Hawley of the United States Army Medical Corps testified today that Maj. Charles A. Shepard, on trial for the poison murder of his skcond wife, insisted there be no autopsy even before her death. At that time both officers were stationed at Fort Riley, Kans., where Mrs. Zenana Shepard, 37, died June 15, 1929. She became i{ll May 20. Maj. Shepard, now 63, and a tuber- culosis specialist, has retired from the service and is in court with his third wife. Maj. Hawley told of being called in to attend Mrs. Shepard and of see- ing her every day during her fatal iliness. Blames Death on Poisoning. “What, in your judgment, caused Mrs. Shepard’s death?” United States District Attorney S. 8. Alexander asked after the witness had described the autopsy. “Mercurial poisoning,” replied Maj. Hawley. “A few days before her death Shepard followed me out to the back porch and asked me how she was get- ting along,” said Hawley. ““I don't think she’s even going to get any better’ I told him, ‘and the worst of it is that I don't know what the matter is’ “‘Thére must not be an autopsy,’ Shepard said to me. “‘Mrs. Shepard isn't dead vet' T told him, ‘but since you brought it up Tl tell you right now that I won't sign a death certificate until I know more about this case than I do now.’” Autopsy Finally Made. Hawley also testified that Shepard resisted the autopsy idea after his wife's death but that it was eventually performed. Seated beside his third wife in the court room yesterday, the slender, seri- ous-faced physician, once convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment on the charge, heard himself described by defense attorneys as the victim of two women, one & “terrible drunkard” who did not love her huband, and the other a “gold-digger.” Striking quickly at the defense as- sertions that the second Mrs. Shepard was a drunkard and “secretly drank raw alcohol,” the prosecution sum- moned two women witnesses who knew Mrs. Shepard at the Army post.

POLICE SHOW INCREASE IN USE OF RADIO CALLS The model radio system of the Police Department was four years old yesterday, and officials took occasion to total the 201,569 service calls which have been relayed by the system since its establishment. According to figures compiled by Lieut. A. E. Miller at headquarters, the calls handled were 25,186 in 1931; 51,755 in 1932; 55,571 in 1933. and 69,057 last year. Arrests last year by officers in radio patrol cars totaled 8,040. Daily calls averaged about 189 last year and 99 per cent of them were answered by patrol cars within five minutes of the time the call came in, The local system, in charge of Lieut. James L. Kelly, radio tech- nician, has become so well known that many police officials from other citles have studied it as & model.

BOND COMMITTES DECLARED RACET Sabath Reports to House Popular Demand to Con- tinue Probe. By the Assoclated Press. Describing the practices of many so-called Bondholders' Reorganization Committees as bordering on a “vicious racket,” Chairman Sabath of the se- | lect Investigating Committee today | reported to the House that there was a popular demand for continuatiol of the inquiry in cities throughout the land. He already has asked Congress for $100,000 to defray future expenses of | [{i the inquiry. | Income Declared Unreported. | Sabath said his committee has turned over to the Internal Revenue | Bureau information to enable it to | collect thousands of dollars in tax- ation on unreporled income. “Disclosures indicate fraud and dis- | honesty, together with apparent eva- sion of income taxes to the extent that will doubtless warrant the scrutiny | [l of the Department of Justice as well as the Department of Internal Reve- nue,” said his report. ‘The committee reported that LEARN SPANISH ! in the NEW Berlitz School 1115 Conn.

TOWNSEND MAIL INQURY PUSHED Post Office Investigation of 0ld-Age Pension Activity Welcomed by Sponsor. By the Assoclated Press. Scrutiny of the activities of Dr. F. £. Townsend was under way today as postal authorities sought to see what use he is making of the mails in gaining support for his old-age pension plan. Dr. Townsend, whose plan calls for $200 a month pension for all persons over 60, said he believed such investi~ gations were routine with the Post Office Department in the case of all organizations such as his. He added he was reluctant to believe the inquiry was an effort to discredit his plan. “I would hate to think the adminis- tration would play dirty politics,” he said, “but even if it did so we would throw the door wide open.” The elderly Californian sald a full statement of his activities, with the last audit of his offices here and in Los Angeles, had been submitted to postal inspectors. A recent appeal by mail for funds, he said, netted about $6,000. Kildroy P. Aldrich, chief postal in- spector, confirmed Dr. Townsend's dis- closure of the inquiry, but said it was still too incomplete for comment. Townsend's campaign in support of his program is carried out through a series of clubs. Members write letters to Congressmen and make donations to carry on the work. The latest ap- peal for funds, Dr. Townsend said, suggested a quota of 15 cents per member. MRS. M. J.
