He charged that New Dealers! “parade the spectre of reaction, | hoping to persuade the people that we cannot have both social progress and sound government,” then added his conviction “we can have both,” but the “only way we can make our 1 social progress secure fis through | ! sound government.” He called warnings that Republi- cans will repeal social legislation of the last seven years ‘“fraudulent,” and declared the party “will support it by making it a workable social service; not a peg on which bureau- cracy may hang its hat. “An administration which: passes a law for social security for the em- ployed has solved only part of the problem.

Mr. Dewey charged that a New York legislative investigation of the administration of State Labor Com- missioner Elmer F. Andrews found “shocking delays and incompetence™ and reported “its principal officers were unqualified.” The investiga- tion, he continued, 2lso decided that Paul_Sifton, executive director of the Division of Unemployment In- surance, “was definitely responsible for the failure to have a working system available.” . Mr. Andrews later became Fed- eral wage and hour administrator and Mr. Sifton his deputy. “The Legislative Committee finds Andrew= and Sifton incompetent administrators,” Mr. Dewey com- mented. “The New Deal places them in high adminjstrative posi- tions.” He said the director of the Bureau of Old-Age Insurance admitted be- fore a House Appropriations Com- mitte that 7,000,000 payments into the fund were unidentified. “The director minimized the im- portance of his statement,” Mr. Dewey went on, “but I cannot mini- mize 7,000.000 tax payments which have not been placed to the credit of the workers who paid for thera. I'cannot minimize it when even one worker may find when he needs his old-age insurance that an incom- petent administration has no record of the payments it took from him on the promise of protecting his old ?lge!"

Flagg, guiding spirit of the So- ial Death, who spoke yesterday be- fore physicians and internes o(. Doc- tors Hospital. Dr. Flagg declared there are no great physical obstacles to be sur- mounted in equipping ambulances with air conditioning, suction and temperature control facilities which would make possible the saving of many more lives, particularly where asphyxiation is involved. He added that certain cases had established convincingly the prac- ticability of transporting asphyx- fated patients to a hospital while respiration is induced artificially when a properly appointed vehicle is available. At present almost all ambulance doctors are deplorably lacking in apparatus to treat emer- gency asphyxiation cases, such as those encountered in near drown- ings electrical shock or caveins, Dr. Flagg contended. Hospitals Not Equipped. The physician, who is regarded an authority in his field, deplored also what he described as a genera) failure on the part of hospitals to develop efficient sysiems for dealing effectively with asphyxiations on a 24-hour basis. He urged that the institutions rec- ognize such work as part of a spe- cialized fleld incorporating anes- thesla, recusitation and oxygen therapy. Dr. Flagg pointed out apprecia- tion that asphyxia can be of any one of three types has been awakened only recently. He emphasized that treatments should differ—that de- | pressive asphyxia, the least severe stage, can be dealt with in a simpler | manner than spastic (characterized by spasms) or flaccid (character- ized by complete relaxation) asphyx-, iation.

She was one-time president of the Big Sisters, an organization to help unfortunate children; was a leader in a campaign to stamp out the narcotic evil in New York State, and in the World War was a founder of the American Ambulance at Neuilly which became Military Hos- pital No. 1 when the United States entered the war. ‘Taking an active part in the hos- pithl work, she once narrowly es- caped death during a bombardment. She was bequeathed only $109,196 by Mr. Vanderbilt, but three years after his death it was disclosed a trust fund of $8,250,000 had been set up for her. When she moved from Fifth avenue to exclusive Sut- ton place, she sold the mansion to a bank for $3,000,000. As late as 1935 Mrs. Vanderbilt was listed by Paris dressmakers as one of the world's 20 best-dressed women.
