Mrs. Roosevelt in a radio address last night named 11 women whose distinguished work in various fields, ghe said, had been a personal inspira- tion to her and has demonstrated that “the world is progressing.” The women Mrs. Roosevelt named are: Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, suffragist, who died in 1919. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, suffra- gist and world peace leader. Jane Addams, settlement worker and author, of Hull House, Chicago. Lillian D. Wald, social worker and publicist, of Henry street settlement, New York. Mrs. Mary M. K. Simkhovitch, social economist, of New York. Mrs. Phoebe Fairgrave Omlie of the Federal Bureau of Aviation. i Amelia Earhart, aviatrix. Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Dillon, public utilities executive of Brooklyn, N. Y. Dorothy Canfield Fisher, novelist. Prances Perkins, Secretary of Labor. Josephine M. Roche, Assistant Sec- retary of the Treasury, of Denver. “I am not going to undertake to tell you who are the greatest women,” said Mrs. Roosevelt, “or the most out- standing successes in their particu- lar fields, but I am going to talk about some of my friends and acquaintances who have been and are a constant in- spiration and help to me.” NORRIS UPHOLDS M'CARL IN FIGHT .

As Norris spoke up for McCarl, the Capito] waited for an answer from Secretary Swanson to a House Naval | Subcommittee which yesterday asked | him to appear before it Monday and explain his defiance of the account- ing officer. McCarl, who is now in Florida on a vacation, has succeeded on several occasions in blocking expenditures proposed by New Deal agencies. Several months ago he prevented the spending of relief funds for a low cost housing project in the District of | Columbia. More recently, he ruled against certain promotions sought by the War Department in the C. C. C. Attorney General Cummings decided these promotions could be made any- way. Order Still Uneffective. Navy officers said that McCarl, un- less overruled by Congress, could still refuse to approve accounts containing the controverted expense payments. Swanson’s order, issuéd in January, has not yet been made effective. Pre- vious payments, after being vetoed by McCarl, were obtained by the retired officers in the Court of Claims. ‘The issue was brought into the open early this week when McCarl made public a letter protesting Swanson’s order and warning him that officers making the payments would be held “strictly accountable.” McCarl contended that the opinion of Cummings upholding the payments was “purely advisery” and brushed aside the favorable opinions by the Court of Claims with the assertion that they disregarded a contrary opinion by the Supreme Court. Swanson had summarized his posi- tion with the remark that the issue was whether “the courts or McCarl” ‘were supreme. Meanwhile, Senator Vandenberg, Republican of Michigan, has launched & movement to amend the General Accounting law to make possible the reappointment of Controller General McCarl when his 15-year term expires next year. As it stands, the law makes a Controller General ineligible for reappointment. ‘Vandenberg said that in these days of “lump sum appropriations” the im- portance of the Controller General- ship has been magnified a thousand times. He said McCarl has shown a perfect conception of the duties of the office. FLEET PLANS OPPOSED PORTLAND, Oreg., March 9 (#).— ‘The Executive Committee of the Port- land Council of Churches has request- ed a change in the Navy Department's plans to hold fleet maneuvers in the North Pacific adjacent to the Aleutian Islands. ‘The committee expressed fears the maneuvers scheduled for May 3 to June 10 would tend only to cause ill feeling between Japan and the United States.

SAN DIEGO, Calif.,, March 9 (P).— An emergency operation at sea saved the life of Leslie Weiner, salon steward of the Panama Pacific liner Pennsylvania, said Capt. James E.

Dr. Saxion T. Pope, one of two physiclans who attended Miss Loy during her one-day stay in the hos- pital, declined to discuss the case. His wife, & friend of Miss Loy’s, said the actress was not ill but “decided to have the examinations made merely as a precaution to check up on her condition.” CONCERT POSTPONED Illness of Feadore Chaliapin De- lays Appearance at National.

'LUNDEEN MEASURE DUE TO BE STOPPED |House Leaders Predict Rules Group Will Bury Radical Pension Bill. With the administration’s social security bill scheduled for consider- ation next week, Democratic House leaders predicted today that the Rules Committee would bury the radical Lundeen old-age-job insurance meas- ure approved yesterday by the House Labor Committee in a 7-to-6 vote. There was little likelihood that tthe measure, introduced by Representa- tive Lundeen, Farmer Labor, of Min- nesota, ever would reach a vote in the House. Lundeen declined to discuss the future situation. If the Rules Com- mittee should refuse to act, his only alternative would be to file a petition for consideration. On this, he would need 217 signatures. ‘The admipistration leaders’ attitude was that the social security bill now pending before the House Rules Com- mittee was as far as the Government could go. The differences between the Lun- deen and the administration social security bill are these: Lundeen would let the Secretary of Labor, under broad authority, to fix amounts, ages and the like, pay old age, unemployment and sickness benefits equivalent to prevailing wages provided they were not less than $10 a week, plus $3 for each dependent. He also would levy no taxes in the bill, which says, however, that money to finance the benefits should be raised from levies on inheritances, gifts and individual and corporation incomes over $5,000 a year. The administration measure would limit the length of time, on a slid- ing scale, during which unemploy- ment insurance could be paid and would raise the necessary money through pay roll and earning taxes. It further establishes three old age aid systems, one, the so-called “needy” plan under which the Fed- eral Government would supply up to $15 a month for a pension; two, pensions paid from a.tax on pay rolls and earnings for persons who make less than $2,500 a year; three, an- nuities, like insurance policies, bought by persons who make more than $2,500 a year... i LOST GIRL BACK HOME Six-Year-0ld Is Shown Way by Police.

By the Associated Press. | CHICAGO, March 9.—Street car motormen, named to act as trafic “spies,” are going to have their ac- tivities curbed. Police Capt. David Flynn, who made the suggestion that motormen help spot traffic law violators, got so many complaints about automobile drivers from the street car men that a rule limiting them to two reports a day was issued.
