Couitsl_t_ip of 100,000 Miles DRINKING PROBE Top Soil “Side Racket” Is Also Alleged by Man in Auto Accident. BY the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, October 17.— Judge Harry 8. McDevitt ordered yes- terday an inquiry in a W. P. A. street paving project after hearing James Brown, a former worker on the project, testify that most of the men employed on it “just lay around drink- ing liquor.” Brown was arraigned before Judge McDevitt in Common Pleas Court in connection with an automobile acci= dent last May. He said the car which he was driving was owned by James Gossner, superintendent of the project. “Gossner told me to take the car, go to a liquor store * * * and come back to the project,” Brown said. After the accident, he asserted, “T was afraid to say anything while on W. P. A. because of I would lose my job, but I have a job now and can tell a lot of things that went on.” “Did the superintendent condone drinking while on the job?” Judge Mc- Devitt asked Brown. “Certainly,” said Brown. “Some- times he himself started the collec- | tlon for liquor. There wasn't much | work to do and nobody cared if it was ever done anyway.” Judge McDevitt ordered that Goss- ner be present next Friday at a hear- | ing to investigate Brown's charges. Brown said a “side racket” was operated on the project under which truckloads of dirt were trucked from the scene of the operations to certain homes designated by Gossner. The dirt, Brown said, was used as top soil. “This was & side racket,” said Brown. “Sometimes we got som | thing out of it, sometimes we didn’ John H. Rankin, W. P. A. adminis- trator for Philadelphia, learning of | the charges, said: “I don't believe | them. So many charges like these have | been proved unwarranted it makes one doubt. Nevertheless, we will make | an investigation.” : MRS. VELMA BARBER DIES IN MARYLAND Native of Castle Rock, Wis., Re- sided Here for Last 43 Years. Mrs. Velma Sylvester Barber, 83, | widow of Amherst Willoughby Barber, and a resident of Washington for many years, died yesterday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Harold Palmer, Oakdale, Md. Mrs. Barber's husband was em- the Interior Department for a number of years. She was born in Castle Rock, Wis,, but had made her home in Washington for the last 43 years. Mrs. Barber was prominently identi- fied with historical work of the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, and at ene time served as a State officer of the organization. She Founders and Patriots, the Society of Mayflower Descendants, the Daughters of Union Veterans and the Abra- cadabra Society of Washington, and was an active worker in the First Congregational Church. Besides her daughter, Mrs. Barber is survived by two sons, Victor S. Barber of Oakland, Calif, and Herbert 8. Barber. Puneral services will be held at 2 p.m. Monday from Hysong's parlors, Thirteenth and N streets. Burial will be in Arlington Cemetery. MRS. SPURGEON BELL DIES IN G. W. HOSPITAL Mrs. Alice Greenwood Bell, 51, wife of Spurgeca Bell, economist and statis- tician of the Home Owners’ Loan Corp,, dled Thursday night after a short illness in George Washington University Hospital. The body was taken last night to Columbus, Ohio, for funeral services and burial. Mr. and Mrs. Bell came here from Columbus, from where he was on leave as director of the Bureau of Business Research, Ohio State University. They have been liv- ing at 3930 Cornecticut avenue. Besides her husband, Mrs. Bell is survived by two daughters, Miss Mary Catherine Bell and Miss Margaret Heard Bell; her father, 8. J. Green- wood, and two brothers, Martin and Sam Greenwood. The father and brothers live in Farmersville, Tex. Labor (Continued From First Page.) reports of this action were carried in yesterday's newspapers. Green said that Hutcheson had given two reasons for quitting the council. First was that one member of the carpenters’ union, Frank Duffy, already was on the council. Second was that other duties prevented him from participating in the council’s present session and that he preferred not to be a signer of reports which he was unable to aid in drafting. At the present time, Hutcheson is occupied principally with his duties as head of the labor division of the Republican National Committee. Prom this spot, he is reported to be in line for the post of Secretary of Labor in the event Gov. Landon is elected President. Among the reports which Hutcheson will not have to sign since acceptance of his resignation is the non-partisan report on platforms and candidates of the major political parties. Although being released somewhat later than usual in a campaign year, the report was not held up at request of Hutcheson, Green insisted again yes- terday afternoon. In addition to the personnel matters and approval of the report, the council yesterday approved a telegram | from Matthew Woll to Max Zaritsky, president of the hat, cap and millinery workers, in which Woll denied reports that the council's “Peace” Committee is seeking to lure individual unions or officials from the C.

ANDRE KOSTELANETZ, By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 17.—Andre Kostelanetz, slight, affable, bald band- master, is winging westward to Cali- fornia again today, happily knocking Off the miles in the most unusual of modern courtships. Every week for four months, Kos- telanetz has flown on Saturday to Los Angeles to spend the week end with Lily Pons, petite Belgian opera singer, and back again Monday night to pick up his work again in New York. Apparently it's the champion long distance, space devouring, swiftest courtship of the day. Already it has covered almost 100,000 miles, and the end is by no means in sight, for Miss Pons has many more months to spend making pictures in Hollywood. To the skeptics who insist that such LILY PONS. devotion must mean more than just the engagement that has been an- nounced, Kostelanetz says with a slight Russian accent: “No, no we are not married. That is the truth. Our plans are still in the formative stage.” He leaves New York Saturday morn- ing and is in California late that night. He has Sunday and part of Monday with his flancee and flies through the night to be at his desk Tuesday morning. ‘This may go on for years, he fears, for what he sees of the picture mak- ing on the sets on Mondays leads him to believe Miss Pons will be in Cali- fornia a long time. “She is very funny,” he says. “Everyone on the set is laughing all the time. She is making very good.” JAMES R. MacWILLIAMS EXPIRES IN HOSPITAL Retired Produce Merchant, Na- tive of St. Marys County, Came to Capital at 20.

PHILADELPHIA, October 17.—The attractive young widow of Tony “the Stinger” Cugino, named as the trigger man in the mistaken-identity slaying in Washington of Allen B. Wilson, shot herself through the heart here yester- day. Police said she used a .38-caliber re- volver, one of the guns Tony had col- lected during his brief but violent career. The 22-year-old widow, Prances, had been brooding, friends said. since Tony hanged himself a year ago in a New York cell, leaving her the following note: “Try and be happy, kid. you on the other side The young woman's relatives said she believed her husband became an enemy of society after he had been “framed” in his first conviction. “He wasn't as bad as they claimed,” she often said. “I hope he's walting for me in the next world.” Mrs. Cugino was arrested for ques- tioning by New York police after her husband had been taken into custody. He hanged himself, police said, rather than face eight murder charges. Mrs. Cugino, left without funds, had been working in a Philadeiphia cigar factory.

Afterward the train left for Buffalo and laid over there for the night before starting for | Niagara Falls. To Speak at Rochester. His principal speech of the day was scheduled for Rochester—in early | afternoon at the city's convention | hall. He was to be there an hour. Late in the day he planned to leave his train again to address a few words to a plaza crowd in Utica, then leave | for Albany for dinner with Gov. “er- | bert H. Lehman. He was due at his Hyde Park home tonight around | 10:30. The President’s Cleveland speech was his first formal address made | from the campaign special “back | porch” and the seventh major one of‘ his 10-day, 5.000-mile circle of the} agrarian and industrial West. Other | major speeches were made at St. Paul, Omaha, Denver, Wichita, Chi- |2 cago and Detroit. Thinking Held Foggy. He told hig Cleveland audience that corporation directors and lawyers who “use the money of their stockhold- ers” against an administration trying to broaden markets for their own goods were, “to put it mildly, a little foggy in their thinking pre S “In this era,” he added, “when many families hold stock in many diversified industries, it does them no good to depress the condition of labor in any industry. They profit best when labor is justly served.” Repeating what he said at Chicago, the President expressed confidence business men and investors would show by their votes that “they have not beea frightened or fooled by the expensive propaganda of those who would seek to spread the gospel of fear—fear that this administration is antagonistic to business.” He added the answer to that charge could be found in the “record of what the New Deal had done for business.” “I repeat here” he asserted, “that the record shows that no administra- tion in the history of the United States has done so much to encourage the business of the Nation.” “Trickle Down” Theory Hit. After enumerating figures to show “an increase in business for every group” in Ohio, he declared this was & refutation of what he called the “trickle down” theory of previous ad- ministrations. This theory, he explained, was based on the lending of money to the “few financial interests at the top of the economic pyramid” in the hope it would seep down into the pay envel- opes of workers, into the ledgers of independent business men and into the farmers’ pocketbooks. “The trouble with that theory was | that there was always too little Mt to trickle more than half way down,” he continued. The President contended his ad- ministration had acted “in the con- viction that the way to bring about recovery was to tackle the problems of those who were at the bottom of the economic pyramid, to increase earnings and income, and through them zhe purchasing power of every- of the Roosevelt family and secretariat Depos Ins Shrs Diversified Tr C Dividend Shrs Equity Corp $3 of Fidelity Pund Inc First Boston_Corp | Eixed Trust 8h A snAa Group Sec Aericulture Group Sec Automobile Group Sec ‘Buildin, | Group Bec Chemica Group Sec Group Sec Iavest Shrs _ D Sec Merchandise Sec Mining R R Equip Sec Petroleum _ Sec Bteel _ Sec Tobacco_ Huron Holding o= Incoro Investors Tr N Y Coll Tovertors P <G Tne Investors Fund of Am ysion Cust Fund B-3 Grouo Gro\_D Nation Wide Sec Nation Wide Voting N Y Bk Tr Shrs 5 North Am Boéla Tr ctfs _ 6 Am Sh = ed Am Sh_Inc new Selected Cumul Sh _ Selected Income Sh _ Selected Indus ey pf Shpervived’ Bhry Trustee Stand Inv C Trustee Stand Iny Trusteed Am = Trusresd Amansery snrs Trusteed N Y Bk 8hi Wellington Fund DIVIDENDS ANNOUNCED NEW YORK, October 17.—Dividends declared (prepared by the Standard Sta- tistics Corp.): Resumed.

CHICAGO, October 17—News of additional moisture likely to promote the growth of Southern Hemisphers crops, lopped off more than a cent & bushel from wheat values today. Genera] liquidating sales on the part of holders of wheat futures at Liverpool were reported as having taken place because of rains in Au- stralia as well as in Argentina. On price declines in Chicago, however, considerable rallying power was shown at times. On reason was word of some export buying of wheat at Wine nipeg, although the amount was dee clared lighter than it has been here- tofore of late. Special attontion given to Southern Hemisphere weather and crop devele opments was attributed to prospective depletion of world reserve supplies of wheat to a possible danger point Bullish traders asserted that because of steady reduction of acreage during recent years of low prices, it was ob- vious that large crops south of the Equator this season, even at best, were out of the question. Neverthe. less, the dependence of importing na- tions on the new crop in the South. ern Hemisphere has been greatly in- creased, and it was noted that the first source of new supplies of wheat other than from Canada was Au- stralia, where the harvest averages about & month earlier than in Ar- gentina. Firmness developed in corn follow« ing an early dip. Offerings were scarce on declines. Provisions showed changes. Around 11:15 am. wheat was 3a% lower compared with yesterday’'s fin- ish, December, 1.15%; May, 1.14': and corn was % off to Y% up, Deceme ber, 93%; May, 90. only slight Liverpool Wheat Prices.
