STRIKE 1 CALLED BY HOMESTEADERS Inefficiency Is Charged to U. S. Officials on Tygart Valley Project. B0 the Associated Press. ELKINS, W. Va, July 28 —Elected directors of homesteaders at the Ty- gart Valley Federal Resettlement project called a strike of men workers of the community today, charging the Government administrators with in- efficiency. ©One hundred and thirty workers will Join the “walk-out,” said the five-man board which was elected by the home- steaders to administer & co-operative farm and a lime stone quarry owned by their Tygart Valley Association. The board said its protests were made against the Resettlement Admin- istration at Washington and L. Wade Coberly, resident engineer in eharge of construction of buildings on the project. The Resettlement Administration started work on the homestead in 1933. Charge Waste and Inefficiency. The five-man board—Andrew Wood, president; A. B. Moore, vice president; L. O. Baker, secretary: L. G. Griffles, treasurer, and Z. R. Wilson—gave these reasons for their action: (1) “Inefficient management.” (2) “Waste of Federal and Tygart Valley Association funds.” (3) Attempts on the part of reset- ¥lement officers “'to cover up and pro- fect one another” in this waste. (4) Disregard of “all principles of democracy in the management of the project.” (5) Construction of a community eenter by private contract and not by Government contract. Director Willson declared: “The homesteaders desired the com- munity center to be built under a Government contract to provide work for the (Tygart Valley) association members."” The directors, in charging “waste,” esserted $63.80 had been spent for loane’s THE EVENING Girl Ousted as Aztec Offering In Exposition to Please Consul By the Assoclated Press. DALLAS, July 28—Sex appeal was running a bed second to history today at the Pan-American Exposition's “Calvacade of the Americas.” No wiasome young woman garbed only in a feather mantle, but an his- torically authentic warrior, will play the sacrificial victim in one of the pageant’s scenes depicting an Aztec ceremonial. The decision to displace the maiden was a triumph for Mexican Consul Adolfo G. Rominguez, who vigorously protested use of the girl was an in- Jjustice to his country. Director General Frank McNeny reluctantly back-tracked on his prev- ious refusal to remove the girl. His reason was that the sight of an appeal- ing scantily clad young woman atop a stone altar, waiting for a sacrificial knife to plunge into her heart, had “packed them in the aisles.’ Domingues, who had more en- thusisaam for what he said was true history, carried his case to exposition directors. They agreed unanimously to replace the maiden, Geraldine Robertson, a centennial beauty last year, with a warrior. ‘The about-face of the exposition was based on an agreement Dominguez said was signed before the show opened, stipulating nothing in the pageant should be distasteful to Mexican sentiments. The cornsul got practically nowhere with a threat to take his protest to the Mexican government unless his- tory was made to prevail and for a time it seemed McNeny's adamant stand would force the issue into diplo- matic channels. labor, gasoline and a threshing ma- chine to thresh 84 bushels of rye. Notice Goes to Wallace. Formal notices of the board's action were sent to Henry A. Wallace, Secre- tary of Agriculture, and Will Alexan- der, resettlement administrator, at Washington. The 20 homesteaders opposing the strike adopted resolutions at a meet- ing last night condemning it. Direc- tor Willson declared there would be | “peaceful picketing.” The Tygart Valley Homestead is ap- proximately 50 miles from Arthurdale Homestead, another resetllment préj- ect, in which Mrs. Franklin D. Roose- velt has been interested. A third re- settlement homestead is located at Red House, near Charleston, in the southern part of the State.

In an interview after Farley had completed a fast inspection trip of Southern Wisconsin post offices yes- terday, the Postmaster General was asked whether the President would support Duffy for re-election. “I never presume to speak for the President at any time,” he answered. “But I feel Duffy is entitled to re- election.” Osaka, Japen, boasts 14.000 “run- about” autos and 44,000 auto drivers.
