Olivia street, died 10:30. o’clock this morning from burns about the entire body. It is believed she saturated her clothing with oil and applied » match. The rest-of the family were asleep when about 2 o’clock, this morning they. were awakened by the cries of the woman. Rushing to her room they found her cloth- ing envolped in flames. She was quickly envoloped in sheets and blankets and the flames extinguished, but not before she was terribly burned to such a de- gree that she was beyond all medical aid. Relatives of Mrs. Moreno said that for some time she had been under a great mental strain and in a highly nervous condition and that this state may have led her to commit the act. She is survived by her husband, Arjymiro Moreno; four sons, Ar- chie, Jose, Heracio and Arristides. Two daughters, Hita and Olga. One brother, Enrigue Esquinaldo.

Watch the ‘labor front’ as an example!” The field of Ley’s “front” is, in- deed, as all-inclusive as its pro- jected membership. From the time a future German citizen leaves school until he, or she, is carried to the grave, the “front” is to guide all activities. Working con- ditions and wages; disability, health and death insurance and pensions; studies in national so- cialism and general culture; amusement after work, travel and recreation during vacations—all are within its ken. Ley Encounters Snags Disputes between employers and employes also come under its juris- diction. The basic discipline of) the “front” means that none of. these differences must result in strikes or lockouts. Ley has been working on project since May 2, 1933, when the nazis seized control of the vast system of German trade unions, On May 10 he announced that German life would be recog- nized on the basis of “staende,” or callings, with agriculture, handi- ctafts, industry and culture as main props, of the system. But | apparently the task was greater than he’ anticipated. In June Kurt Schmitt accepted the ministry of economics on con- dition that reorganization of com- merce and industry on “staendis- che” lines would be deferred and it was not until December that Walter Darre, minister of agricul- ture, announced that “‘staendis- cher aufbau” was being undertak- en im earnest in his department. The one man who organized his field quickly was Joseph Goebbels, minister of propaganda. On No- vember 15 he inaugurated the “reichskulturkammer.” It em- braces musicians, painters, sculp- tors, architects, playwrights, ac- | tors, novelists, journalists, eam-! eramen, film people, radio jnouncers and all on the fringes of those callings. | 1 hel” | Charle: folding in the county court house this morning while working on the CWA painting project.
