3 TS MERELES OO AT Talmadge, Douglas and Al- len Are Singled Out for Bitter Assault. By the Associated Press. Pulling no punches, Public Works Administrator Ickes in his new book “Back to Work—the Story of P. W. A,” hits back at some of his favorite “hates.” Among those singled out for particular attention are Gov. Eugene Talmadge of Georgla, former Budget Director Lewis W. Douglas and George G. Allen, head of both the Duke En- dowment Trust and the Duke Power Co. Admitting some mistakes undoubt- edly had becn made in administering the fund, Ickes stoutly maintains two points—that politics had been kept out of the undertaking, and that delays in the spending were not his fault. Legal difficulties and local complications ‘were to blame for the latter, he says. $3,300,000,000 Held Inadequate. Although P, W. A, kept an average of 500,000 at work on construction sites in 1934 and provided jobs indi- rectly and dlrecl’y for 2,000,000, the administrator says that the original $3,300,000,000 was entirely inadequate for the task of pulling the country out of the depression. Referring to the care with which projects were reviewed before allocations were made, Ickes states flatly that unless projects were useful as well as employment giving it would be as desirable to “dump a mil- lion dollars at every mile post from ‘Washington to San Francisco. The author went into the subject of Gov. Talmadge in considerable detail. Finding Georgia cut off by its own constitution from borrowing freely from the P. W. A, Ickes declares that the administration went out of its way to devise means of letting the State share in P. W. A. benefits. Many of these efforts were made upon request of the Governor, he continues, where- upon the State executive proceeded to veto special State legislation which ‘would make the loans possible. Allen Termed Jekyll-Hyde, As for Mr. Allen, the administrator terms him a Jekyll and Hyde who opposed a municipal power project on the grounds that it endangered securi- tles held by the Duke Endowment ‘Trust, but who neglected to emphasize the fact that he was president of the Duke Power Co. Budget Director Douglas was op- posed to expenditure of the P. W. A funds at a fast rate, Ickes says, and suggested higher interest rates on loans to municipalities and States as| & means of discouraging their desires to obtain funds. The book is dedicated to President Roosevelt, whom the author terms “the world's greatest builder.” LEGISLATORS SCORE IGNORING OF PEAK King and Schulte Condemn Re- ported Board Action in Choos- ing “Outsider” for Job. Leaders of District legislation in both the Senate and House today con- demned the reported action of the District Welfare Board in recommend- ing an ‘“outsider” to replace Capt. M. M. Barnard as director of local penal institutions, disregarding Col. W. A. Peak, former superintendent of the District Jail and now director at the reformatory at Occoquan. Chairman King of the Senate Dis- trict Committee said that he was not at all in sympathy with any plan of going outside of the District to fill positions when there were well-quali- fied persons in the District service, and that he would personally advocate the appointment of Col. Peak as the logi- cal successor to Capt. Barnard's post when the latter is retired. Representative Schulte of Indiana said: “I am dumbfounded to read that the Welfare Board would favor any out- sider when there is 2 man of 16 years’ experience and most enviable record in line for the position.” A telephone call from the office of Chairman Norton of the House Dis- trict Committee brought from the Welfare Board a denial that Harold T. Connell, superintendent of Mary- land penal institutions, had been recommended officially as Capt. Bar- nard's successor.

On one of his most delicate missions | as Great Britains roving representa- | tive, Eden advanced as justification for the accord the argument that it prevented Germany from bullding an | even greater navy. Before leaving for his morning | audience with Mussolini, Eden held a | final conference with Sir Eric, who | drove with him to Mussolini's office. Capt.

When he left, Eden announced he had received Hitler's promise to accept the plan, which would give the Reich an army of about. 250,000 men. Italy agreed to the proposal, but France would wmot accept it. The matter dragged on—and the opportune | moment was lost, Finally Hitler pro- claimed an army of more than twice the size he would have accepted 18 months previously. If naval matters were treated in the same way, Eden set forth, it was conceivable that within a few years Hitler would announce the building of | a navy much larger than that agreed on at London, PACT HELD GOOD FOR ALL. Sir Samuel Hoare Denies Agreement Violated. LONDON, June 24 (#)—Sir Sam- | uel Hoare, foreign secretary, told the | House of Commons today that he con- | sidered the Anglo-German naval ac- cord good for all naval powers. “This is no violation of anything | which has been made,” Sir Samuel re- | plied wh2n W. Thorne, Laborite, asked whether the present trip of Capt. An- | thony Eden to Paris and Rome fol- | lowed on a violation of the Anglo- | French agreement. | Sir Samyel sald the Anglo-French declaration of February 3 still repre- sented the British policy and said a | further statement probably would be made in the Commons following Capt. Eden’s return. “I regard the agreement,” said Sir Samubl, “good mot oniy for Great Britain and Germany, but for all na- val powers.” Meanwhile, Great Britain, with Ger- | many suddenly transformed from an “unknown quantity” to a friendly ally, turned today to the task of unit- ing Europe either by bilateral pacts or multilateral agreements. An official announcement said Great Britain and Germany are presenting to other powers summaries of their views concerning the possibility of a future general naval limitation pact. The announcement came soon after Berlin, having completed naval nego- tiations which brought an accord for a 100-35 ratio between the British and German navies, DRUNK DRIVING DROPS IN VIRGINIA SECTIONS By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, June 24—Hours of crazed fear of death or capture, mo- ments of insane bravado, thousands of dollars spent for silence, constant distrust of every companion, $50 a week for sleeping room in a hotel. ‘That picture, stripping away every vestige of romance, was drawn of the lives of John Dillinger and a lieuten- ant at the trials of Attorney Louis P. Piquett, chgrged with harboring Dil- linger and Homer Van Meter, who both finally met up with realization of their worst fear, death by bullets. ‘Witnesses told the story at Piquett's two trials, first in January for aid- ing Dillinger when Piquett was ac- quitted, and again last week.

The human guinea pig work was shown by M., H. Nathanson, M. D, assistant professof of medicine, Uni- versity of Minnesota. Prof. Nathanson stops hearts in two ways. One by a sort of ju jutsu pres- sure of the. fingers near the earotid artery, which virtually stills the heart the same as death, but only tem- porarily. The other is partial stoppage by in- jecting adrenalin, the energy-produc- ing drug. The: injection sets up the same kind of confusion in heart mus- cles as, causes death in coronary thrombosis, the “industrial captain’s disease,” and angina pectoris. In most of the type of sudden death from heart troubles, Prof. Na- thanson explains, the heart ftself is still good, sometimes structurally so strong that it appears good for sev- eral or many more years of life. He has stopped or slowed hearts of fairly healthy human beings and sought drugs which will prevent either the stopping or slowing. The theory is that the drugs which prevent the artificial stoppage will be useful medi- cally. PROTESTS TO PRESIDENT Housing Conference Asks Proj- * ects Be Assured Continuance.

WALEY TOTESTIFY 10 ABSOLVE WIFE Defense Counsel to Sum- mon Him From Prison to Confess Fully. By the Associated Press. TACOMA, Wash, June 24.—Ane nouncement that Harmon M. Waley will be summoned from his cell at McNell Island Prison to make a full confession exonerating his 19-year-old wife today presaged the first court room battle in the George Weyer~ haeuser kidnaping case. John F. Dore, attorney for Mar- garet Waley, said Waley would tes- tify on behalf of his wife, charged jointly in the $200,000 abduction of the 9-year-old Weyerhaeuser boy. Former Mayor Attorney. Dore, former mayor of Seattle, who was appointed to represent Mrs. Waley after Waley pleaded guilty and re- celved a 45-year sentence for the | kidnaping, was here today to hear United States Judge E. E. Cushman set Mrs. Waley's trial date. It may be set for as early as July 2, the start of the new court term. ‘Waley already is reported to have confessed to Department of Justice agents who arrested him and his wife in Salt Lake City for passing part of | the ransom money. The “G-men,” however, are determined to conceal his admissions, apparently until after William Dainard, alias Mahan, the third person indicted in the kidnap plot, is caught. It was indicated today that the | defense will oppose the Government's | efforts to get an immediate trial, on | the ground that Mrs. Waley is too nervous following her husband's guilty plea and sentence. Plans Interview Today. Dore said he would have his first interview with her today, after the case has been set for trial. “This girl is friendless and penni- less,” said Dore, “but she is entitled to the best defense that can be pre- pared for her, and that is exactly what she will receive.” Mrs. Waley made three attempts to plead guilty and receive immediate sentence. She was forestalled by | Judge Cushman because of her hus- band’s desperate plea that she knew nothing about the kidnaping until | two days after George was seized and | because of her counsel's contention | that she is not guilty of plotting the | abduction and could not be convicted if sent to trial Special Thi $5 months ICALL MR.
