| - WAGE-HOURDELAY FACES CONGRESS Roosevelt’s Intimation He Will Urge Legislation May Put Off Adjournment. «BY the Assoctated Press. President Roosevelt's intimation that he soon would recommend wage and hour legislation caused Democratic leaders today to shove back the pros- pective date for adjournment of Con- gress. . Because of prospects of indefinite Benate debate on the court reorgan- ization bill, some of them had pre- dicted that other major items on the administration program would be left over until the 1938 session. In the last few days, however, the « President has indicated a determina- tion to pursue N. R. A, A. A. A. and T. V. A. objectives this year. The three items might add several weeks to the legislative calandar. He has prepared a message to go to Congress this week reaffirming his belief in national planning of the type being carried out in the Tennessee Valley. Norris Has Bill Ready. Serator Norris, independent, of Nebraska, is ready with a bill to out~ line in detail what the President prob- ably will deal with in general terms. ‘This measure, contemplating seven regional authorities like T. V. A., prob- ably will cover flood control, naviga- tion, conservation and power develop- ment. House leaders indicated pro- longed study of the questions involved might force the legislation over until the next term. They were awaiting a statement of the President’s position, however, before concluding whether a Postponement would conflict with his ‘Wishes, Legislators especially interested in adbiculture were wondering what the exact administration position would be on the new surplus control and price stabilization bill proposed by farm or- ganizations, Noting that the suggestion came from farmers' spokesmen, the Presi- dent said yesterday that, by and large, it appeared to follow principles fa- vored by the Agriculture Department, Chairman Jones of the House Agri- eulture Committee said the bill woyld have to be examined carefully in hear- ings before Congress would undertake to replace the soil conservation act. Plans May Be Deferred. « Despite repeated predictions of wage and hour legislation, the fact the Pres- 1dent had not moved in that direction earlier led some members to believe 1t might be deferred. After the Su- preme Court upheld the Wagner act, there was speculation over whether the problem would be left entirely to col- * lective bargaining by labor. Asked about it as reporters crowded his office yesterday, the President said for the first time that he would ad- dress Congress on the subject soon, This was taken to mean that g decision is approaching on whether to have the bill include provision for fair trade practice agreement by in- dustry. The impression prevailed at the Capitol that the administration pre- ferred o have child labor banned in such a general bill rather than deal with it separately. Some members said they believed trade practice ques- ¢ blons would get separate treatment. The Senate Interstate Commerce Committee received testimony yester- day in support of several child labor bills, but members disagreed over the type of legislation that might be ap- proved by the Supreme Court. ——— LOST.

Crippled Children Cheered by Visit Mrs. Roosevelt yesterday thrilled 51 pupils of the Weightman School for Crippled Children by a visit to the institution and a personal greeting to each youngster. After inspecting the school and chatting with the children, Mrs. Roosevelt was entertained by a program in her honor. She is shown here with Peggy Porter, one of the pupils, and Miss Helen Moore, physiothera- pist. Today, the Kiwanis Club is taking the youngsters to the circus matinee—Wide World Photo. Labor (Continued From First Page.) nounced yesterday they would shut down their plants, affecting 79,000 workers, if the union called a strike against them. Murray said Republic’s men at Aliquippa included: J. L. Williams, superintendent of po- lice, with offices in Cleveland; Capt. Edward Todd of the Buffalo plant, Lieut. John Keiffer of the Buffalo plant, Lieut. Fred Rhodes, Capt. Joseph Gilroy of Canton, Ohio; Capt. Millard Hannan of Warren, Ohio; Charles Fette, superintendent of the company’s tube works at Youngstown. Murray'’s statement continued: “Every man mentioned here has been or is now in Aliquippa. “I further charge that practically every man I have named was at one time on the police force of Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp. or employed in the mills of that corporation at Aliquippa. e * * It is a strange situation when an ‘outside’ steel company sends its police and thugs into the home town of another steel company. Such information must have been known to officials of Jones & Laughlin. “+¢ * * We are prepared to invoke the Wagner labor act to maintain peace. Jones & Laughlin has agreed to sign a contract after the election. One of these days Republic Steel is going to have to do the same thing. “But before that day we want Re- public’s workmen and the general public to know what to expect, in light of the Aliquippa developments.” Rival Unions Make Claims. Rival unions issued conflicting claims of victory at tomorrow’s Jones & Laughlin election Joseph Timko, sub-regional director, predicted the union affiliated with Lewis’ Committee for-Industrial Or- ganization would win, “nine to one,” in the Pittsburgh plant in tomorrow’s election, Paul J. Pismato, secretary of the Pittsburgh Works Employes Associa- tion, declared that heads of that inde- pendent group “feel jubilant over the prospects of winning the election,” while spokesmen for the United Iron and Steel Workers at Aliquippa said the balloting “would reveal the weak- ness of the 8. W. 0. C.” Murray Changes Tactics. Meantime, in a sudden change of tactics, Murray told representatives of the Crucible Steel Co. of America he would agree to a contract similar to that signed last March by steel producing units of the United States Steel Corp. and adopted since that time by 120 companies independent of United States Steel. These contracts reecognized the Lewis union as collective bargaining agent for its members only. Less than a week ago, as J. & L.— third largest independent—yielded to the strikers’ demands and agreed to the election, Murray announced that henceforth the union would demand sole collective bargaining rights. The union leader made no statement ex- plaining the tactical change. He agreed to wait until next Mon- day for an answer from Crucible. This, his associates said, meant that if there were no contract signed then a strike would be called; or, if an em- ployes’ election is held, the right to represent all workers would be de- manded, as was done in the case of J. & L. The J. & L. workers will vote in “bone dry” areas—bars and liquor stores were ordered closed for the R | day—solely on the question of whether they want the Steel Workers’ Organiz- ing Committee to represent them as collective bargaining agent. It will be a ‘“yes” or “no” vote. Director Ernest J. Dunbar of the Regional Labor Board promised the results would be made known PFri- day. Slaughter House (Continued From First Page.) Clarke protested. He added that the bill, if passed, would cause “an in- nocent property owner to suffer more than $1,000,000 loss.” Charging that the bill was un- constitutional, the attorney said it was “morally wrong to legislate a concern into the poor house.” It was at this point that Palmisano moved s reconsideration. Claims Exaggerated, Seal Says. During the lively discussion that fol- lowed, Corporation Counsel Seal brought to the committee’s attention the suggestion that the claims of pos- ADVERTISEMENT.

At drug stores, 35¢c. sible loss by the Gobel Co. were ex- aggerated. “The combined property of the com- pany on this site is assessed at $70,776 and the company asked for a reduc- tion in this assessment,” said Seal. “If the company paid $1,400,000 for this property, it was not worth that much,” he added. The plea to wait on the Senate Dis- trict subcommittee was protested by Representative Nichols, who said he could see “no reason for alarm” over the action just taken. Representative Quinn also joined in the protest to delay actiop. Senate Hearings Cited. “The Senate committee has been holding hearings to expedite this case, and it seems ridiculous to appoint another committee in the House to conduct hearings,” he said. “The Senate hearings soon will be com- pleted and available for this com- mittee.” Before permitting a vote on the mo- tion to reconsider, Chairman Norton called for a statement from Corpora- tion Counsel Seal, who was an in- terested observer. Seal read a statement he had pre- pared last Saturday setting forth that the effect of the bill would be to [prohibit the Gobel Co. from execut- ing its construction permit, but in- sisted the bill was aimed at all in- dustries characterized as ‘‘potential nuisances.” Referring to the steps which led up to the issuance of the permit to the Gobel plant, Seal said the Zoning Commission had no alternative under the law. The new regulations adopted last November, he explained, would prohibit a new slaughter house from being established in the District. The pending legislation, however, would take from the Zoning Commission any question of diséretion in issuing & permit, Seal pointed out, and pro- hibit such operation through legisla- tive action. Seal Tells of Park Profects. Briefly, Seal outlined the park im- provements in the vicinity of the Gobel property. - “The District Commissioners, who be undesirable to locate a slaughter house there,” he added. “The Commissioners would never have issued the permit in the first place if they had not been compelled to do so by mandamus proceedings in court,” Seal explained. “They had no alternative.” Seal explained that after the Com- missioners had required certain plumb- ing qualifications for the Gobel com- pany to meet, the firm withdrew the old mandamus suit and filed a bill in equity, claiming $50,000 each in dam- ages from the three Commissioners. During the discussion of the District Commissioners’ action, Representative Palmisano took up their defense. “Let’s be fair,” he said. “The Com- missioners had no alternative under the law but to issue the permit. They couldn't do anything else.” ‘The question of compensation to the Gobel company, repeatedly brought up in the Senate hearings, was raised by Representative Dirksen. He pointed out the lack of an amend- ment to the bill providing reimburse- ment to the slaughter house firm for possible loss of this property. He said the bill efther should carry an amend- ment of this kind or other legislation should be introduced. Seal said he was not opposed to reasonable eompensation, but pointed out that the Norton and King bills were constitutional and similar legis- lation had been upheld in a Louisiana slaughter house case. A delegation of Southern Maryland farmers who ship live stock to the ‘Washington market is expected to lead the parade of witnesses before the Senate District Subcommittee this aft- ernoon. These farmers, it is report- ed, will oppose the bill. The subcommittee, incidentially, may report on the result of its in- spection trip at Benning on Sunday, during which the members—Senators McCarran of Nevada and Tydings of Maryland, Democrats, and Austin of Vermont, Republican—surveyed the site of the proposed Gobel plant and questioned residents in the immediate vicinity. 3 Blast to Top Record. ‘Workmen are engaged in burying 20 tons of explosives in a stone quarry in the heart of Ben Dhuirish, at Bon- awe, Scotland, getting ready for the biggest blast in the country’s history.

Officials of the District Alley Dwell- ing Authority rested secure today in the first judicial assurance of the con- stitutionality of their slum clearance program. Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat of District Court upheld the validity of the alley dwelling act late yesterday in condemnation proceedings insti- tuted by the authority to acquire five houses located on two alleys running between Eighth and Ninth and E and G streets southwest. The American Seeurity & Trust Co., trustee for three of the pieces of property, contested the proceedings, contending Congress was without authority to authorize the taking of property for slum clearance. Argu- ments were heard yesterday afternoon, Attorney George C. Gertman repre- senting the trust company and Henry \H. Glassie, special assistant to the Attorney General, appearing for the authority. Gertman contengded the purpose of the Government in taking the prop- erty weag to remodel the houses and gell to individuals, and that this was not & “public use.” He also pointed out that the alley dwelling act is intended only to eliminate alley habie tations and not to take property fronting on alleys which is used for other purposes. The utmost exercise of power which should be permitted, therefore, would be to require owners | of alley property to eject their tenants and utilize the property in some other fashion, Gertman asserted . Chief Justice Wheat disagreed, however, holding the legislation was desirable, salutary and in the interest of public health. The Government attorney said the purpose of the act was “to eliminate the hidden communities in inhabited alleys of the District of Columbia in the interest of public health, comfort, morals, safety and welfare.” This is a legitimate purpose of the Federal Government in its function as the government of the District, Glassie argued. CHILD WELFARE GROUP GETS SURVEY REPORTS Findings Summarized by C. C. Carstens—44 of Every 100,000 Cared for in Foster Homes Here. Reports on a survey being made of local child welfare agencies were sub- mitted at & meeting of the Child Wel- fare Committee of the Council of So- cial Agencies yesterday. The reports were summarized by C. C. Carstens, executive director of the Child Welfare League of America, Who said the number of Washington children being cared for in foster homes, 44 out of every 100,000, is higher than in many cities. One pur- pose of the survey, he said, is to de- termine whether this figure is too high. It was announced -the proceeds from two lectures by Mrs. Martin Johnson at Constitution Hall May 28 will be used to help defray costs of the survey. 45 Years at 935 F S, | HUFF 15 SWORN IN ASD.C. PENAL HEAD Prison Bureau Official to As- sume His New Position on June 1. Ray L. Huff, parole supervisor for the Federal Bureau of Prisons, today accepted appointment as general su- | perintendent of District penal insti- tutions and took the oath of office at the Board of Public Welfare. He will assume his new duties June 1 or shortly thereafter, depending on how soon he completes his work in the Justice Department, it was an- nounced. Huff’s acceptance was submitted to the Commissioners after the Civil Service Commission had approved a reallocation of the post, raising the salary grade, now ranging from $5,600 to $6,500, to the next highest step, $6,500 to $7,500. District officials revealed that such & reallocation had been requested 18 months ago by the Welfare Board and had been approved at the time by the District Personnel Board and the Commissioners. It was sent to the Civil Service Commission for ap- proval in connection with the recom- mendation of the Welfare Board for the appointment of Harold E. Donnell, Maryland prison head. The Com- missioners then decided to retain Capt. M. M. Barnard in service and the Civil Service Commission was asked to lay the salary request aside for later action, according to District Auditor Daniel J. Donovan. Change Made Today. ‘When Maj. Donovan returned to work last week, after an extended sick leave, he asked the Civil Service Commission to act on the old pro- Pposal and approval of the change was announced today. In his letter of acceptance, Huff told the Commissioners: “In this appointment I believe that much weight must be given in recog- nition of the prison policies of Con- grees and of the Attorney General, as they are expressed in the practices of the Bureau of Prisons, with which I have been associated. These direct a strictly merit policy to make prisons serve the community in as wide an area as is possible, consistent with their primary purposes of custody and rehabilitation. “I will take counsel under the guid- ance of the Commissioners and the Board of Public Welfare and look forward to accomplishments which will be the results of the work of the prison staff as a whole. To Live at Lorton. “It is & great privilege to succeed Capt. M. M. Barnard, who has given a large portion of his life in loyal | devotion to the public service of the | District.” Huff said he planned to make his residence at the cottage for the penal superintendent at the Lorton Re- formatory. For this reason, it is ex- pected that his wife, Mrs. Florence Huff, shortly will resign her position as supervisor of the Pennsylvania avenue station of the Public Assist- ance Division.

He cited the fact that in recent gears, since the District was required to con- fine at Lorton hardened criminals of a type previously sent to Federal Pprisons, it had been necessary to build a walled inclosure. This broke down to a large degree the “honor system” on which the reformatory originally had been founded. Barnard Still Serving. Street also said the penal dircctor of the District has more prisoners under his charge than any of the Fed- eral prisons and that a larger appro- priation was necessary for the opera- tion of the reformatory, the work house and the jail than was required for any of the Federal prisons except Leavenworth, Kans. Other District officials explained that new salary allocation approved for the District penal directqr were the same as applied to the Federal wardens, Capt.

JONESVILLE, Va, May 19— Eighty - two - year -old Green Allen Brooks, who said he was a Tennessee circuit judge a half century ago, planned to plead defense of his family when hig trial on charges of killing two deputy sheriffs is called in Lee County Circuit Court today. The courteous, bewhiskered octo- genarian was arrested in Lubbock, Tex., and returned here in March to face the charges of fatally shoot- ing Deputies Arch Redmond and Bob Bailey in July, 1935. Brooks said the shooting followed the officers’ visit to arrest Luther Poore, his son-in-law, on a Bell County, Ky, warrant. His action, he sald, was prompted by fear the deputies would “hurt Mr. Poore se- verely and possibly endanger other members of the family.” After the shooting, he made his way from his Cumberland Mountain home into Harlan County, Ky. and later went to Texas, he sald, remain- ing a fugitive for nearly two years. Brooks, vigorous and bright eyed, has had “thousands” of visitors since being returned here two months ago, Jailor Pat Giles said. 8heriff R. F. Giles of Lee County said after the arrest in Texas Brooks immediately waived extradition and said: “I can come back to Virginia and take it like a man.” Brooks had told visitors to the jail here he was circuit judge in Hancock | and Union Counties in East Ten- nessee from 1877 to 1883, later an officer, school teacher, traveling sales- man, farmer, Middlesboro, Ky., mer- chant and Sunday school worker. % 3 Fe sk ke Fe ok ke ke sk ok ok ok ok ke Kk ke ok ke Cleaning Floor Coverings for Over 60 Years You Are Invited To Inspect Our STORAGE . . . rubbing. !
