YEARS HOTTEST DAY

HUNTING SHADY SPOTS
Government Thermometer on Top Of
Boston Building Registered
SO Degrees

Salt Lake, July 23.-Yesterday the
thermometer on top of the Boston
building registered SO degrees above
zero and that in the kiosk in front
of the Federal building showed 80
degrees above, both thermometers be-
ing in the shade, but the one on
the street being in much hotter po-
sition on account of the proximity to
the streets and stone buildings. This
Is the highest the thermometer has
registered in Salt Lake this year.
Unusual crowds were on the
streets on account of the big carni-
val of the Wards of the Wizard of
the Wasatch and the full sweep of
the sun on the broad stretches of
pavement caused them to hunt every
shady spot possible. There was no
report of sunstroke or of anyone
being overcome with the heat.
Many of the business men have be.
gun the habit of appearing on the
streets without coats or vests, and
linen suits are becoming more com
mon every day. A few still wear the
Little Eva" variety of alleged shirts
but these seldom venture out in the
heat Of the day.
Altogether the day was hot and
none seemed inclined to hove except
when 1t was absolutely necessary oil
to get closer to some place that ap
! parently was cool.

ROE BACK TO FACE
 CHARGE OF MURDER
Negro Alleged to Have Killed Con-
 missioner Now in IhiS State.

Winsted, Feb. 2.-Harry Roe, in
 dictcd with Isaac N. Williams by the grand jury, for the murder Of County Commissioner Hubert B. Case at Barkhemsted last November was ar Taigncd in the superior court today on q bench warrant charging him with | the crime. After brief proceedings
 he was rcmanded to the county jail
 at Litchheld without bonds, to await ] trial.
 Roe arrived in Winsted last night in company with State Policeman Hur- ley. He had been brought from
 Poughlleepsie. N. l., where he was being held for burglary.
 The New York state authorities yesterday considered a request for itoe's cNtradition and decided in favor of the state of Connecticut. Officer Hurley produced ahidavits to strengthen the case of Connecticut and after they were reviewed by County Judge Arnold and District Attorney Conger Roe. it was decided, should come back to Connecticut to face trial.
 Harry (. Harris, counsel for Roe. had a long conference with his client and decided not to oppose cxtradi- tion.
 Despite an earlier confession al- legged to have been secured from Roe by Officer Hurley. the accused -dcniea that he was in the vicinity Of Bark ha,nstcG on the night of Noxom bcr 2S Whcr Commissioner Hubert E. Case Was murdered. The confession a!- legged to have been scc@rtd from Roe admits that he acted as "looI. out" for Isaac N. Williams. while the latter robbed a store in W!nstcd that night. Williams has been indicted vith Roe for the Case murder. Roe no% claims that the Winsted burglary was com mitted on November and that he was not in that section of the atatc when Commissioner Case was mur- dcred.
 Roe is confident that he will even tHally prove his innocence of inc crime charged against him. He says he would rather be arrested while com hitting a burglary than kill a man.
 "I want 10 go to Winsted." he said, "to show them that | was not con cerned in the murder. It is true that Williams and myself have been mixed up in a good many safe blowing jobs, but would never shoot at q man or try to kill man when I was rob ! binc his place. | would rather be ! caught doing a trick than have % i shoot q person"

GOVERNOR PLANS TO

HcIcomb to Make Special Message Appropriations to Be Made at

Hartford, Feb. "A new propOsi- tion to conserve the finances of the state will probably be called to the attention of members of the general assembly within a few weeks.

ROCKEFELLER TARGET
 IN INDUSTRIAL INQUIRY
[. p. Costigan Makes Accusations
 Against FinanCicT.

New York, Feb. 2.-John D. Rocke- Foundation were criticised again to- day by q representative of organized labor who testified before the federal . industrial relations commission. The witness was Edward P. Costigan of l counsel for the United Mine Workers of America and his testimony con- sisted chiefly of a statement Mr. Costigan announced that he appeared at his own request The most generous estimate a somewhat disilIusioncd public will place on MT. Rockcfcller's activities" '" Mir. Costgan said, "ts that his founda- ton is dealing With effects. while through the Colorado Iron and Fuel company. throughout their agencies. he is actually and v.sibly feeding the flames and causes Of industrial un- rest
 MT. Rockefeller, who appears to the world in the relief afforded Bel gium, liberal benefactor, stands convicted before the workers of Colo . rado as a narrowly biased and vision less money maker. In a great human crisis. precipitated within the Ter;- household, industrially speaking. of Mir. Rockefeller, his foundation has been needless or impotent. And thc conclusion forced on an unprejudiced public has been and is that Mr Rockefeller, the business man, has cold -heartedly and without hesita- tion brushed aside tho imposed silence on MT Rockefeller, tho philan- thropist."
 After reviewing at considera tde length what he called Mir RockefelI- CTS attitude in Colorado, the wiAI ,ss, said: Nothing could more clearly demonstrate that the Rockefeller Foundation is primarily an asset of tho Rockefeller industrialism and only secondarily q public charity"
 An earlier witness was Frederick II. Golf. president or the Cleveland Ohio Trust company and head of the Cleveland Foundation. Mir. Golf saiG he was the originator of the founda- ton.
 We found in Cleveland" said he, that those who gave money for charitable purposes were too apt to limit the scope of their gifts One man would limit his gifts to hospitals. another to Ncautifying a cemetery. We therefore worked out q plan hY which the gifts out Of a surplus of wealth o1 d community could he used locally for the best good of tho community.
 "Thc foundation is really a declar- alton of willingness by the Clcve- land Trust company that il will ad- minister any funds iutrustcd to it for the public good. A committee appointed by city officials. judges and trustees Of the trust company has entire jurisdiction over the dishursc- mcntS. The foundation is confined to charitable purposes"
 Speaking of the Rockefeller Foun- dation, MT Golf said that he could not help but feel that the handling of so important q trust by Il self-perpet- uating board presents possible elc- 1 mCnt of danger.
