WOOD 70 APPEAR AGAINTU.S AGAN Reed Due to Be Pitted Against New Yorker in Guffey Hearing. By the Associated Press. The New Deal marsheled its best legal minds today for another major engagement with Frederick H. Wood, New York lawyer who helped kill N.R. A. Stanley F. Reed, the solicitor gen- eral, probably will be pitted against him when the Supreme Court hears arguments on the constitutionality of the new Guffey law creating a “little N. R. A” for the soft coal industry. They have met before. Reed's quiet woice parried Wood’s booming thrusts in the Schechter N. R. A. case which the administration lost. Prior to that they worked together in a successful defense of the Government's right to nullify the gold clause in private bonds. Was Railroad Attorney. Wood is a veteran railroad attorney. He moved to New York from Kansas City more than 20 years ago to be- come general attorney for the South- ern Pacific. He was instrumental in collecting $80,000,000 from the Gov- ernment in the famous railway mail pay case years ago, and tested the law under which Congress sought to re- capture a portion of the earnings of the more profitable railroads and turn 1t over to less remunerative lines. ‘The private law firm which he en- tered 10 years ago now has 18 mem- bers, maintaining principal offices in New York and a small one in the Capital. ‘Wood is a Republican. He says he mever has been active in public life and does not care to express opinions on New Deal legislation other than that which has taken him to court. Files Suit at Once. He filed suit to test the Guffey bill | in District Supreme Court within 24 hours after it was signed by President Roosevelt last Friday. Wood and Solicitor General Reed have vastly different court room styles. Wood talks fast and loud, gestures with arms and body, paces about, seldom refers to his notes. Reed | talks slowly in a low voice. | ‘When there isn't work o be done in court or at the cffice, Wood likes to g0 horseback riding or play golf. His golf isn’t on a par with his legal ability. “I probably have the distinction of being the worst golf player in the| world.” SEX DETERMINATION CLAIMED IN 2 CASES Philippine Scientist Uses Appa- ratus Apparently Able to Separate Two Elements.

WOOD, The first suit testing the con- stitutionality of the Guffey coal act has been filed in District Supreme Court yesterday by Wood, repre- senting the Carter Coal Co.

MMARYLAND WORKS OUTLODK “DARK” Administrator Fears All Em- ployables Will Not Be Absorbed. By the Associated Press. BALTIMORE, September 2. —Francis H. Dryden, Maryland works progress administrator, doubted today enough projects would be under way by November 1 to absorb the State’s 23,263 employables slated for removal from relief rolls on that date. “I would be foolish if I said that all of the employables will be put to work by November 1,” Dryden said. “There will not be sufficient projects of sufficient value by that time, I think.” State projects thus far submitted to Washington for approval would | provide a year’s work to 11,732 men. Other projects not yet submitted would employ 38,655 for a year. Maryland counties already have been | notified of reduced relief allotments for the first half of this month and the Baltimore Emergency Relief Com- mission ordered a 15 per cent cut for its clients. “The first employables to go to work will be placed when the allot- ment for Baltimore comes through,” Dryden said. “After the project has received the indorsement of the President it must go to the controller general, who will provide the funds. “We will put to work as many per- sons as possible as the money is ined in two cases involving artificial rmade available.” insemination were revealed here to- day by Dr. I. Garcia of the Uni- | versity of the Philippines. In each instance, boys were born to mothers who previously had been | childless. One of the births was re- | corded August 19, but in a second case the child died at birth, Dl‘ Garcia said. ‘The treatment utilized by Dr. Gar- | ela, who is a member of the uni- versity’s School of Hygiene, involves use of electrical apparatus described as apparently able to separate male anhd female elements in spermatozoa. Complete details were not made known for the present. Although comment was guarded, Dr. Garcia said he would continue his research and planned to present a formal report shortly. COLLECTOR 1S SLAIN BY TWO IN HOLD-UP Shot Down Without Warning by Robbers Who Got Bag Con- taining $150. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, September 2—Edwin 8. Estoposito, a collector for the Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Co., was shot and killed by two robbers early today at an elevated station on the Culver line. Police said the robbers shot him down without warning. Passengers on a train that waited for the col- lector heard the shots. The killers fled down the station stairs with Esto- posito’s bag containing between $150 and $180. Mrs. Elsle Merz, ticket agent, said the robbers stepped from behind pil- lars and opened fire as Estoposito emerged from the ticket booth where he had emptied the safe. Two shots struck him. Mrs. Merz described the slayers as well dressed and young. Police be- lived that a third man with an auto- mobile waited for them at the bettom of the station stairs. e MAN, 22, BADLY HURT |IN PLUNGE AT CLUB Says He Was Challenged to Jump From Balcony at Hangar Club. A leap from the balcony of the Hangar Club, in Arlington County, yesterday morning resulted in critical injuries to Russell Wedgewood, 22, of Beverly, Mass. He is in Emer- gency Hospital with a fractured pelvis, three broken ribs and possible in- ternal injuries. According to. hospital attaches, ‘Wedgewood, who is a shoemaker, told an incoherent story of being chal- lenged to jump from the balcony, 17 feet above the concrete sidewalk. He did not name the challenger. A similar case occurred three weeks | ago, when a young night club wait- ress leaped over the rail, pulling with her a man who tried to prevent the jump. She was released last week after recovering from severe injuries. FILM STAR AND AUTHOR WILL VISIT BAY COTTAGE Charles MacArthur and Wife, Helen Hayes, to Spend Two Weeks With Frank Brown.

Downs Half Gallon of Beer In 17 Seconds to Claim Title By the Associated Press. BALTIMORE, September 2.—That astonishing Italian, Emi! (Feets) Cel- 1a, who two months ago was on a diet of milk, claimed today the world beer- guzzling chamionship. He had all of the Labor day holiday to celebrate his feat of downing a half gallon of brew in 17.2 seconds, as com- pared with the 32-second mark set in Milwaukee. “T did it for the Eastern Democratic Club,” he said after his performance yesterday. Representative Vincent L. Palmisano presented him a wrist watch on behalf of the club. Last July, Cella drank the draught 4n 27 and a fraction seconds. He said then he had been training on vast quantities of beer and such delicacies as unshelled hard-shelled crabs, iron and grass. 'l'henext day he was in a hospital with a ruptured blood vessel in his stomach. For & week his diet was milk. The Greater Baltimore Democratic Club, rival of Cella’s sponsors, asserted he “couldn’t take it,” and advanced a champion of its own—Steve Smeton. Smeton was not present to see Celia his time by 8.4 ze‘condl, lcmg; the stop watch of City Council- man William Bonndt. “Tell the Greater Baltimore Club that I won’t go to the hospital after this one,” Cella said. “I don’t eat hard-shell crabs no more. Idon't eat iron or grass, either. But I just et a big chicken dinner.” If Your Dentist Hurts You Try DR.
