THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. e LYDDANES PARTED AS RETRIAL NEARS “Economic Reasons” Given for Divided Montgomery County Home. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., October 21.— “Economic reasons” have parted | Francis (Slom) Lyddane from the pretty, blond wife, who is scheduled ! to go on trial in a few weeks on charges of conspiring to murder him.} The amiable Lyddane, known as “Slom” to hundreds of Rockville resi- dents, now lives with his grandmother | here, while his wife, Mrs. Anne Mc- | Laughlin Lyddane, went to Washing- ton to reside with a sister. Friends of the couple said, how- - ever, that Lyddane still has faith in | the innocence of his wife. He stood by her in June when she was tried on charges of conspiring with four Washington underworld characters to murder him. The trial resulted in a hung jury. Boland Found Guilty. Prior to the jury trial, one of the alleged conspirators, John Martin Boland, Washington gambler, elected to be heard before judges here and was found guilty and sentenced to 3 years and 9 months in prison. Lyddane sat beside his wife at the trial and heard the prosecution's ace witness, John (Googy) Carnell, former convict and Rockville bartender, tes- tify that Mrs. Lyddane tried to hire him as a contact man between herself and gunmen she wished to have kill her husband. The husband admitted on the wit- ness stand that he knew his wife was supposed to be going about with Ar- thur Beall, a garage man, whose wife testified she had caught her husband with Mrs. Lyddane. | event of their dissolution, insolvency, immediately would be paid into the District unemployment fund. No extension of time could be allowed for filing of the returns or for payment of the contributions. Interest at the rate of 1 per cent per month | would be added to the pay roll contri- butions in cases of delinquency on the part of the employer in making pay- ments. Method of Payment. Payments by the employer must ac- company the pay roll returns. These payments could not be mailed if paid in cash and would have to be made to designated cashiers of the board. Payments by check or money order could be mailed or made personally to cashiers. Employers would be ' required to notify the board immediately in the bankruptcy, composition or assign- ment for the benefit of creditors. Prettyman and Marshall explained | that the District act provides penal- ties of not less than $100 or more than $1,000, or imprisonment for not more than six months, or both fine and imprisonment, for the following vio- latbons: Making any agreement by any in- dividual to waive any rights. Making any agreement by an indi- vidual for the payment of any part of his employer’s contributions with re- spect to his own or any other person's employment. i Any deduction from an employe’s | wages made, required or permitted by | his employer for the purpose of paying :lny part of the employer's contribu- on, __Any employer requiring or attempt- ing to induce any individual to waive any right required under the act. Furnishing of any false record or making any false statement or repre- sentation by any employer, his officer or agent, knowing it to be false, to Second Trial Prospect. ‘The prosecution sought to show that Mrs. Lyddane tried to hire assassins to do away with Lyddane because of her love for another man, while the defense contended that Mrs. Lyddane was the victim of a blackmail plot by hoodlums who were cashing in on their knowledge of her affair with Beall. The bizarre case is expected to be brought to a second trial next month.

Must Be Authenticated. ‘When the amount of the contribu- tion payments payable for any month is $10 or more the return must be sworn to before a notary public. If the amount is less than $10 the em- ployer’'s signature or that of his agent would be sufficient Failure of an employer to receive the pay roll sheets from the director would not relieve him of the responsi- bility of filing his returns on time. If any employer has a pay roll sys- tem in use under which it would be more convenient for him to furnish the prescribed data he could arrange with Director Marshall to employ his own forms, provided all required data were listed. The employ¥rs™ contributions would | be paid to the compensation board and ' avoid the payment of any or all of the employer’s contribution, or to prevent or reduce the payments of any benefits; and Willful refusal of any employer to pay the required contributions or who refuses to furnish any report required by the act.
