GEN THEFT CASE READY FOR JRY Two Women Held in New York in $350,000 Robbery of D. C. Matron. New York authorities were ready today to go to the grand jury with the Bugher gem theft case, Chief of De- tectives B. W. Thompson announced here. Two women are held in New York— Agnes Olsen Johnson, charged with receiving stolen property in connec- tion with the theft of a $50,000 col- lection from Mrs. Frederick H. Bugher, 1785 Massachusetts avenue, and Anna Hansen, also known as Isabelle Hutt, allegedly the intended recipient of a $300,000 lot stolen from the Washing- ton society matron. Vietim Identifies Gems. ‘The victim of the robbery and her son, Frederick McLean Bugher, iden- tified the jewelry at headquarters in New York yesterday. The $300,000 collection was returned to Mrs. Bugher, but the rest was held as evidence, the Associated Press said. Police here assumed that the Bughers and Detective Sergt. Joseph W. Shi- mon would be witnesses at the grand Jjury hearing, which was scheduled to start at 11 am. Meanwhile, Thompson and his aides, who have worked unceasingly on the case since it broke Friday afternoon, have renewed their questioning of John Morcischeck, Bugher butler, re- puted “brains” of the robbery. Says He Found Gems. Morcischeck sticks to the story that e found the $300,000 jewels in a hall- way of the fashionable Bugher aparte ment and shipped them to New York, investigators say, but he dentes any connection with the smaller lot. It developed today, too, that after the $300,000 robbery was reported, Mrs. Bugher, who knew nothing of the theft of the $50,000 in jewels until New York police found them, had thought that still another collection, valued at $20,000, had been taken from her home. These were found later, how- ever, according to Thompson. i Strike (Continued From First Page.) After the six cars penetrated the line a voice from the sound truck shouted: “Tomorrow we'll have a real picket line, and nobody will ge into the plant.” At the Fleetwood unit of Cadillac there was no violence as about 200 employes of the Ternstedt division, part of the Fleetwood plant, went back to work. No picket line was estab- lished there. ‘The General Motors strike extended from coast to coast today for the first time as the corporation completed plans to return 39,900 of its more than 125,000 idle employes to work tomor- TOW. o About the time General Motors offi- cials here announced the recalling of ‘workers to 10 plants in Michigan and Indiana a disturbance in which three persons were hurt and property was damaged occurred last night at An- derson, Ind, where two subsidiaries are closed. Joseph Carney, Anderson police chief, said a crowd of about 2,000 per- sons prevented the United Automo- bile Workers of America, which called the strikes, from holding a meeting in the Madison County court house. Union Organizers Injured. Police Chief Carney said that the demonstrators threw eggs and there were numerous fist fights. Three union organizers—Perry Warrum, Frank Schutz and Clark Cramer— were hurt, Carney said, but did not require hospital treatment. From the court house part of the erowd went to the union headquarters and, the police chief -said, some fur- | . nishings were ruined and office rec- ords destroyed. The police escorted about 20 persons from the headquar- ters to jail for safe keeping, Carney added. Next demonstrators burned a pick- ets’ tent outside the Guide p plant, a General Motors subsidiary where a strike is in progress. “Sit down” strikers who - occupied the oll LEXINGTON WINS P’ve stopped at all the HOTEL LEXINGTON 48th STREET at LEXINGTON AVENUE, N.

A second Anderson unit of the cor- poration, Delco-Remy, has been closed as a result of the strikes. More than 8,500 employes of the two divisions sre idle there. The strikes, which had extended from New Jersey to Missouri and from Georgia to the Great Lakes, spread to the West Coast yesterday afternoon when the union called walkouts in the Chevrolet and Fisher plants a¢ Oak- land, Calif., yesterday afternoon. ‘The management said operations were proceeding, although Frank Sla- by, local union president, asserted that half of the 3,000 workers were on strike. All of the plants which will reopen tomorrow are in the Chevrolet divi- sion. The company has said it hopes to have 95,000 now idle working two or three days a week as soon as pos- sible. Plants to Reopen, ‘The 39,900 ordered back to work to- morrow are distributed as follows: Indiana—Indianapolls, commercial body plant, 1,500; Muncie, transmis- sion and forge, 1,500. Michigan—Bay City, small parts plant, 2,300; Saginaw, foundry, 5,700, and parts manufacturing, 1,800; Flint, ‘motor plant, 10,000, and pressed metal, 4,000; Detroit, gear and axle plant, 9,500; forge, $2,500, and spring and bumper, 1,100. Alfred P. Sloan jr., president, de- clined last night the request of Secre- tary of Labor Perkins that executives of General Motors Corp. meet in her office tomorrow with leaders of the automotive strike in his company’s plants. “We cannot see our way clear,” Sloan wrote Secretary Perkins, “to accept the invitation to negotiate with the union while its representativer continue to hold our plants unlaw- fully.” His reference was to the occupa- tion of two Fisher body plants at Flint, Mich., by “sit-down" strikers. The United Automobile Workers of America, which called the strikes, had accepted the summons from the Sec- retary of Labor and its ranking off- cers went to Washington. - Jobless Make Toys. ‘Unemployed men in Lancashire and Cheshire, England, were given a two- week course in toy making and sent back to their local groups to teach others.
