GETS NOBEL PRIZE Peace Award"Also Is Given to Foreign Minister of Argentina. By the Associated Press. OSLO, Norway, November 24.—Carl von Ossietzky, German pacifist, and Carlos Saavedra Lamas, Argentine for- eign minister, were announced official- ly today as winners of Nobel peace prizes. The prize for 1935 was awarded to Von Ossietzky, publicist, who was freed recently from a German prison and who had been mentioned frequently as & probable winner. Saavedra Lamas, prominent in the League of Nations and recent president of the League Assembly, received the,| award for 1936. Award Is Deplored. German Minister Salm declared a regret for the award to Von Ossietzky and asserted it “will create the embit- terment of Germany.” A committee of the Storting, Nor- wegian Parliament, selected the prize winners. The peace awards were the last in five categories from the Nobel fund. The other four—for literature, physics, chemistry and medicine— were conferred by Swedish institutions. It was the second announcement ‘within two weeks of selections from the fund created by Alfred Nobel, Swedish chemist and explosives manufacturer, who devoted his vast fortune to the establishment of the five prizes. U. S. Dramatist Honored. Eugene O'Neill, American dramatist, was awarded the prize for literature November 12, when Prof. Carl David Anderson of the California Institute of Technology shared the physics prize with Prof. V. F. Hess of Innsbruck University, Austria. Prof. Peter Josef ‘Wilhelm Debye of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physics in Berlin won the chemistry prize. Three Americans won Nobel prizes for peace in recent years—President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia ‘University, Frank Billings Kellogg, co- author with Aristide Briand of France of the Kellogg-Briand peace pact and | @ judge of the Permanent Court o(‘ International Justice at The Hague, the Netherlands; and the late Jane | Addams, former president of the Inter- national Congress of Women for Per- | manent Peace. Bandits (Continued From First Page.) ‘was not in itself a violation of the so- called Lindbergh law, because the soldier was not transported across a State boundary for ransom. Intra- state kidnaping is not a Federal of- fense. Prosecution probably would be effected under laws governing assaults and thefts on Army reservations. Surprised while he was doing sentry duty in an isolated section of the Army post, Ayers was thrown into the rumble seat of an automobile, driven to & point near Chain Bridge and left there after being ropbed of his auto- matic, ammunition and spurs. He was found in a dazed condition by a farmer, who telephoned Fort Myer. After being taken back to the post and given first aid for an injury caused when the rumble seat top was slammed on his head, the soldier was able to give an account of the abduc- tion. Ayers said his abductors shouted at him when they stopped their car on a road near the post laundry, where he was stationed. When he ap- proached the car, he said, two of the men got out and stuck revolvers eagainst his side. “They disarmed me,” Ayers told Fort Myer officials, “threw me into the rumble seat and locked me in. ‘Then they drove to the place where they let me out. “One of them, armed with a black- Jack and a gun, wanted to beat me in the woods, but one of the others stopped it.” Ayers said one of his abductors wore riding boots and breeches, an outfit also worn by a member of the trio that has figured in the two parker- car hold-ups. Police said Ayers identified one of his assailants from a police picture and said he believed he recognized another photograph. The same two pictures also were THE EVENING STAR. This 2-year-old boy, held by Nurse W. J. Gorman, main- tained an all-night vigil by the body of his mother, Mrs. Bertha Owens, in a clump of woods near Bainbridge, Ga. He was dis- covered when his whimperings attracted a colored boy on his way to church.. Officers believe the mother was slain and are holding Sherman Logue, truck driver, ror questioning. —Copyright, A. P. Wirephoto. picked out by the other victims of the bandits. The robbers are believed to have used the soldier’s automatic in intim- idating Walter Holt and Miss Virginia Ash when they were held up on Beech drive in Rock Creek Park the night | after the abduction of the sentry. Holt was robbed of about $14 and left bound and gagged in the woods after the bandits stole his car and drove off with Miss Ash. The second hold-up took place last Friday night, when two Fairfax cou- ples—Mary and Thelma Shelton and Gordon Riggles and James C. Steele— were robbed and tied with their own | clothing on a lonely road below Mount Vernon. Pin Ball (Continued From First Page.) is in its application to those two games from the moral law that would judge the actions of two men playing dice by an altogether different stand- ard, and the two men playing horse- shoes by an altogether different stand- ard, namely the amount that they ventured—whether they did it freely, and whether the game was honest and equitable,” Justice O’Donoghue said he could not close his eyes to the fact that “these machines are pregnant with the possibilities of fraud.” “The change of the spring,” he con- tinued, “the change of the plunger, the slightest change in the level of the machine, the ehange in the ball or the composition of the ball, or a slight change in the size of the ball, a change in the pins making them stouter or thinrier, longer or shorter, a change in the size of the holes— all these things are such that no matter what skill a player might ob- tain in one day or in one week, it would go for naught on facing that same machine with just the slightest changes made in one or more of these things that I have just mentioned.” Coming under the court’s decision are all pin ball machines which pay off in any manner. After allowing them to be operated for some time, Garnett ruled last July that they were gambling devices, and requested the police to seize them. | When the Pioneer Novelty Distributing Corp. proposed, however, that the question of the legality of the ma- chines be settled in a court of equity rather than through criminal prose- cution, Garnett acquiesed. After a preliminary hearing, Justice Oscar R. Luhring granted a temporary injunction, saying he was in doubt | whether the machines are games of | skill or chance, and that they should not be seized until this point was de- termined by testimony at a final hearing. The trial just completed before Jus- tice O’'Donoghue concerned the appli- cation for a permanent injunction. The judge dissolved the temporary in- Junction and said he would dismiss the suit.

WASHINGTO! U..S. DISTRIBUTING PENSION BLANKS 26,000,000 Applications Go Out to Wage Earners From Post Offices. ‘Twenty-six million wage earners in the United States began today to re- ceive their applications for Federal old-age benefits under the social security act. Distribution was being made by 45,000 post offices, where completed {forms -are to be returned by Decem- ber 5. The delivery here was being launched this afternoon and by to- night, Postmaster Vincent C. Burke expected to have the applications available to the 125,000 or 150,000 workers eligible for enrollment under the pension plan, which becomes effec- tive January 1, 1942. Concurrently, it was made known at the Social Security Board that some communications are continuing to come in from concerns operating their own pension plans, which raise the question as to the possibility of being exempt from the Federal set-up. Board Silent. The board, however, is not com- mitting itself at this time. “Various proposals for amending the act have been brought to the atten- tion of the board,” it was said. “These and others made within the board are being extensively discussed and given careful consideration, but the board is not prepared to make public now any formal presentation of its views on these and other matters” At & meeting of the board this past week, it was decided to spend a month studying possible changes in the act. To Publicize Facts. In an effort more fully to acquaint the public with the operations of the board it was arranged today to in- augurate press conferences. Last night, Chairman John G. Winant spoke over a Nation-wide hook-up on the benefit plan, and tonight, Vin- cent M. Miles, board member, will g0 on the air to outline the results of the first day's distribution of the employe applications. With the return of these forms the Internal Revenue Bureau will be prepared to collect the tax which starts January 1 next. The first in- stallment is payable February 28. For the first three years, this amounts to 1 per cent of salary from the em- ploye, and 1 per cent of pay roll from employer. It goes up a half per cent every three years then until reaching the maximum of 3 per cent from each in 1949. ‘The benefits will range from $10 to $85 monthly, depending on total wages earned until the payments start | for those reaching 65. Since the deadline for employers to apply for an “identification number” | has now passed, questions about the | Government's attitude toward those who refused or failed to do so are being asked of the Internal Revenue Bureau. Officials said each case would be decided on its merits, without any wish either to be lenient to vielators of the law or to take a “crack-down” approach. Until s specific case came up, there appeared to be little likeli- hood of & ruling on the subject. Neither was there any apparent pros- pect of an extension of the dead- line, which expired Saturday. No data was yet available on how many em= ployers refused to co-operate, Revenue officials and Jesse M. Don- aldson, Deputy First Assistant Poste master General, both expressed gratie fication for co-operation from busi- ness. » WAGE CONFERENCES . WILL BE CALLED Senator Wheeler Makes Plans to . Discuss Constitutional Amendment. Senator Wheeler, chairman of the Interstate Commerce Committee, a: nounced today he would hold a series of conferences with labor groups and Senators to agree on the form of a constitutional amendment to authorize Federal regulation of wages and hours of work. The Montana Senator mentioned the American Federation of Labor, headed by William Green, and the Committee for Industrial Organization, of which John L. Lewis is chairman, as two of the groups he would consult. Both have declared in favor of such an amendment {‘if necessary” to permit Federal regulation. Wheeler announced also that he would meet with several “liberal” Sen- ators to work out an acceptable amendment and that the conferences would be started as soon as Congress convenes in January. “The question of & constitutional amendment will be one of the principal issues to come before the Seventy- fifth Congress,” Wheeler declared.
