THE EVENING | Midnight STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, WOMAN LIBERALS WIN IN ALBERTA Two Get Legislative Seats on New Deal Plan of $25 a Month. By the Associated Press. CALGARY, Alberta, August 24— The ladies will do some of the new dealing in Alberta’s prospective “$25 & month for everybody” government. Late returns that swelled the Social Credit League's smashing victory at the polls Thursday made that plain today. Two women, Mrs. F.” Gostick and Mrs. W. W. Rogers, won legisla- tive seats on the platform of the party that proposes to give every adult citi- zen of Alberta at least $25 a month in “credit dividends.” “It's only a milestone,” said Mrs. Gostick, a department store cashier, of the victory, but she added it would mean economic independence for the province's women. be won “until poverty has been abol- ished from our midst.” Three woman candidates of opposi- tion parties were defeated as the new party, led by William Aberhart, 57- year-old evangelist and school teacher, elected 44 members of the Legislature and piled up a lead in 12 other con- tests. Rural returns were slow, but they showed two victories for the Liberals, and one for the Conservatives, with Liberals leading in two other constit- uencies and the United Farmers party, in power for 14 years, in two. Aberhart, who is expected to suc- ceed Premier Reid, chosen by the United Farmers' Government, was silent af his Calgary home on just how he'll go about putting his ben- evolent platform into practice. He expected to confer with his aides to- day. THE WEATHER District of Columbia—Fair, contin- | ued cool tonight; tomorrow fair. Maryland, Virginia and West Vir- tomorrow fair. River Report.

Senate Works Rapidiy. peed marked the passage of the |tax” measure through the Senate. | After the Finance Committee favor- ably reported the House bill, the Sen- ate acted within a few minutes and, without a record vote, agreed to send it to the White House. Before the bill reached the Senate floor, R. V. Fletcher, general counsel | of the Association of American Rail- | roads, told the Finance Committee it was unconstitutional and asked that the Senate deliberate further before acting. He predicted that railroads would be faced with a deficit of $2,800,000,- 000 at the begiuning of operations of the pension plan because many em- ployes would be eligible for immediate retirement.

Efforts were made first to retain 300 map makers employed here who | faced the loss of their jobs at the| end of this month. This plan was | rejected, it was said, but more favor- able consideration was given the larger plan because the 2,000 men employed in the field largely came | from relief rolls and returned there when their jobs ended. The force had ben employed making surveys of all areas in the United | States that had not been mapped. The maps are used by several Govern- | ment agencies, including the Coast | | Guard, Navy Department, Biological | Survey, Tennessee Valley Authority, | U. 8. Lighthouse Service and other Federal units. The federation called upon R. S. Patton, director of the survey, today | to make a requisition for the neces- sary funds to continue the project.

Construction is estimated to provide six months of employment. The Russell County, Va., School Board was granted $46,800 to fire- proof three existing school buildings. A loan of $57,200 was authorized. This is another six months’ project. In Dinwiddie County, Va., the school board was granted $49,500 to construct a two-story brick high school at Mid- way and repair the school building at McKinney.
