NEARBY PRINTERS IN WAGE DISPUTE Union Gives Alexandria Group Funds to Press De- mands on Paper. By a Btaff Correspondent of The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va, August 26— Locked out of the composing room of the Alexandria Gazette following a disagreement between the publisher and representatives of the Interna- tional Typographical Union over wage rates and working hour arrangements, five former composing room operators of the paper today threatened to carry on a fight for their working rights with a $50,000 fund already placed at their disposal by the union. The men, three Linotype operators, & floor man and proofreader, were no- tified Friday that their services would be dispensed with. They were locked out Saturday after having agreed to continue work under any reasonable wage and hour schedule pending the outcome of negotiations between the publisher and a union representative, B. Gerald Edwards, chairman of the group, stated. A composing room foreman and job pressman also will be effected, Ed- wards said. C. C. Carlin, jr, president and editor of the Alexandria Gazette, said today the disagreement was over his refusal to pay the union composing Toom operators an increase of 3¥ cents an hour and to agree to a new pay-work schedule proposed by the union. Non-union cperators, employed Sat- urday to compose the paper, will be continued temporarily, the editor an- nounced. Carlin sald there were only three men affected. If negotiations for settlement of the disagreement are unsuccessful, the operators plan to use $50,000 expenses wired them by the I T. U. to carry on s campaign against the paper, the group chairman said. EXTORTION SUSPECT DECLARED INNOGENT Harry Schimanski, Held for Notes tp Thelma Todd, Be- lieved Wrong Party.

By the Assoclated Press. HOLLYWOOD, Calif.,, August 26.— Btenographers are more sentimental than housewives and they “emote” more rapidly than actresses. Such were the findings of Prof. Jus- tin W. Brierly, Columbia University ychologist, on & research visit to mtro-floldwyn-myer studios. Using Una Merkle, ectress; Ann Roberts, the housewife, and Marion Horton, secretary, -as subjects, the professor, took minute measurements of heart action, respiration, blood pressure and other emotional reac- tions, and then compared them. He found the housewife's life is full of incidents which provide emotional outlets, hence her reactions are the same. The stenographer, however, sttention sharpened by close appli- eation to office duties and without emotional outlets, he said, is most sensitive to impulses. The actress is Jess emotional except while acting. Oh, yes, the three subjects watched Clark Gable and Jean Harlow xo fhrough some love scenes while the cts were made.

PHOEBUS FAVORS DUSTING WRIGHT Maryland Senator Cites Al- leged Connection With Lobby Incident. By the Associated Press. PRINCESS ANNE, Md., August 26. —State Senator Harry T. Phoebus believes Gov. Nice should demand the resignation of J. Purdon Wright for his retention as counsel to lobby for the bill creating the Paperhangers’ Examining Board. Denouncing the board as a “racket,” the Somerset Republican asserted yes- terday he would sponsor a move to have the bill repealed at the special session this Winter. Phoebus’ statement was issued with reference to the dismissal of C. Hood Dasch and Clement Ehoff, chairman and secretary, respectively, of the Paperhangers’ Board. $250 Reported Paid. Evidence on which Gov. Nice asked their resignations included testimony that they paid Wright, superintendent of State police and counsel to the Public Service Commission, $250 to lobby for the bill creating the board. Describing the Governor as “cha- grined and horrified that such a thing could happen in his administration,” Phoebus said he thought the Governor “did the right thing” in asking for the resignation of Ehoff and Dasch. “How About Wright?” “But, how about the man who got the money?” he asked. “The paper- hangers employed Wright for $250— the money collected. “If the men are guilty of giving the money, how about the fellow who accepted the money? * * * The Governor should demand Wright's resignation immediately. “This Paperhangers’ Board is & racket, pure and simple. If thg courts do not declare it unconstitutional, * ¢ ¢ Tl introduce a bill at the special ses- sion of the Legislature to repeal the racket * * *.” WATCHMAN.IS HELD Charged With Manslaughter in Train-Auto Crash: NEW YORK, August 26 (P).—A railroad crossing watchman, Robert Godek, 49, today was under $2,500 bail in connection with a train-auto collision in which Phillip Rofer, jr., 3, was killed in West Babylon, Long Island.
