Persons Threatened.

Mrs. Catherine Shadburn, of Bu- ford, a sister of the Allen brothers, also received a death threat. Others who received the letters were: Taylor Whitley, land owner of Da- cula, Ga. Mr. and Mrs. A.

BY REX COLLIER. Drastic reforms in methods of awarding Army contracts, with a view to abolishing lobbying practices such as led to charges against two high Army officers, will be recommended | by the House Military Affairs Com- mittee as a result of its inquiry into War Department procurement activi- ties. The reforms have been incorporated in a report which the committee ex- pects to submit to the House today or tomorrow, The Star learned from an authoritative source. Calling attention to the conviction | by court-martial of Col. Alexander E. Williams for accepting a Joan from a tire salesman and the censure” by Secretary of War Dern of -Col. Joseph I McMullin for accepting fees from thas’ ap end be put to “negotiated coptracts” at the War Department. For Open Competition. assurgnce from the War Department that henceforward the Army will in- sist on free and open competitive bid- ding for all military contracts, thereby eliminating “high-pressure salesmen” and so-called lobbyists as influential factors in contract awards. Abolishment of the practice of ne- gotiating with dealers for Army con- tracts would put an end to lobbying conditions complained of by a grand jury and by the committee, the House group, headed by Representative John J. McSwain, Democrat, of South Caro- lina, will point out. Special criticism will be aimed in the report at methods of negotiating for surplus military supplies. It was in connection with such negotiations that a grand jury was called to in- vestigate activities of Joseph Silver- man and his associates, who were seeking to buy surplus underwear, saddles and other Army goods. The report, it is understood, will review activities of Silverman in ob- taining revisions in his contract for surplus property and will call atten- tion to changes made in one of Sil- verman's contracts by former Assist- ant Secretary of War Frederick H. Payne on his last day in office. Ban on Purchases. The ban on negotiated contracts would apply equally to purchases made by the War Department and sales of surplus or other property to pri- vate parties. The ban is in line with wishes of Controller General McCarl, who has opposed granting of con- tracts without competitive bidding. The report, it will be explained, is not final. Mention will be made of the fm- pending retirement of Maj. Gen. Ben- Jjamin D. Foulois as chief of the Army Air Service—a retirement which grati- fies the committee in view of its in- sistence that Foulois should be re- moved for nlleged mcompebency. GINNER USE USES CHICKENS TO EXECUTE WEEVILS Builds Special Chamber for Hens to Gobble Up Pests Blown Through Exhaust Pipe. By the Associated Press. SAVANNAH, Ga., August 22—A chicken’s appetite for insects gave Victor B. Jenkins, banker-farmer, the idea for constructing his boll weevil execution chamber. Jenkins was worried because the cotten cleaner at his gin at Blundale sent boll weevils back to freedom along with trash blown from the cleaner exhaust. So he inducted the exhaust pipe into a closely screened coop in Which he placed 20 healthy, hungry chickens. The plan worked. The chickens gobble up the weevils.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 22.—Flice the surplus fat off building eosts and taxes, and prosperity will take care of itself, in the belief of John J. Raskob. That was the substance of the eco- nomic prescription offered today in his first interview on business matters in many montns. Raskob, who resigned the chairman- ship of the Finance Committee of Gen- eral Motors Corp. to head the Demo- cratic National Committee during the 1928 presidential campaign, sees no reason why the wheels of heavy in- dustry could not be made to spin as rapidly as have, recently, the lighter lines of business, He is now a di- rector of E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. Denies Capital “on Strike.” In his quiet, unemphatic y he rejected flatly the idea that it is a | “strike of capital” which is impeding recovery in capital goods lines. “You couldn't even get a wash- woman with $500 to risk it in & busi- ness that only paid 4 per cent,” Ras- kob said, then pointed out that if taxes take as much as two-thirds of the profit from an undertaking wnich involves the risk of loss anyway, even though it made 12 per cent, the net return would be only 4 per cent. Combine lower taxes with a 20 per believes, and you have the touchstone which transforms stagnation into prosperity. Wage Cut Advocated. “The building trades unions ought to cut wages 20 per cent for the sake of a fuller pay envelope and a full week's work,” Raskob suggested. Some 2,500,000 of the unemploved, he calculated, are building trades workers. Behind each of these job- less workers stands a man who should be in the steel plant, or the quarry or the cement mill. Employ the nuild- ing artisan and his invisible helper also goes back on the pay roll, cutting 5.000,000 from the total of jobless em- ployables. The stimulation to the railroads re- sulting from a rise in the building in- dustry might easily absorb another half-million men, he thinks, and the service occupations, revived by the additional flow of wages, could soak up the balance.

OKLAHOMA CITY, August 22 (&) —~—Oklahoma bid Wiley Post a sad | farewell today. A place of honor was prepared in the rotunda of the State capitol for the body of the intrepid fiyer to lie in state.

It is understood every Guardsman and State trooper who took part in the | patrol is to be indicted. The grand jury found Gen.
