Despondent Over Auto
Accident, Hangs Himself
Fireman William Weigin Took
Blame for Injury to Woman
in Collision

Despondent because he believed he
was responsible for the serious injury
of a woman in an automobile accident
William A. Weigin, twenty-four years
old, a fireman attached to Engine Com
pany 5, at $40 East Fourteenth Street
committed suicide by hanging yester-
day in his home, at 1926 Raymond Ave-
nue., The Bronx.
After eating his breakfast on his re-
turn from the frehouse, Weigin told
his mother he was going up to his
room to read. Late in the afternoon
his brother, August A. Weigin, pro-
bationary policeman, came home and
found the body in the room, hanging
from a gas pipe. The fireman had
strangled himself with his own belt
On table was note from Weigin
addressed to his father. 1t read:
Dear father, it is all my fault
"WILLIAM"
The family remembered that William
while driving his automobile upstate
few months ago, was in collision
with another machine. A woman in the
other car was seriously injured and is
still confined to a hospital. The acci-
dent preyed on the fireman's mind, and
he often declared that he was to blame
for it.

Senate Votes for
100000 Army and
Buying Camp Sites
Action Is Preceded by Hot
Debate i'm Which Bureau
Methods Are Said To Be
''Infnitely Scandalous''

WASHINGTON, June Without
a record vote. the Senate tonight
adopted committee amendments to the
Army Appropriation bill providing for
an average army of 100000 men for
the year beginning July 1. The bill
as passed by the House provided for
an army of 100000. Secretary Baker
had recommended that the total be
placed at 100000 officers and men.
The Senate to-day, also without
a record vote, approved a committee
amendment to the annual army ap-
preparation bill authorizing the War
Department to proceed with the pur-
chase of camp site, negotiations for
which are pending.
The House specifically prohibited
these transactions in passing the bill,
and stormy debate preceded Senate ac-
tlon. The controversy centred about
the purchase of the site of Camp Ben
ming, Columbus, Ca, which was dis
approved in a resolution adopted last
March by the Military Affairs Commit
tee of the last Senate.
War Department AssaiIed
Senator Owen, Democrat, of Oklaho-
ma, declared the departments method
of caring for war supplies was "in-
finitely scandalous," while Senator
King, Democrat, of Utah, said "some-
body in the War Department ought to
be punished for this wasteful and will
full expenditure of public money" in
the purchase of unnecessary lands.
An amendment by Senator Robinson,
Democrat, of Arkansas, authorizing the
department to purchase $50 acres as the
site of an aviation camp in Arkansas
was adopted without q record vote.
By vote of 33 to 20 the Senate re-
stored provision stricken out in COM
mittee to prevent use Of stop watches
or similar time measuring devices in
work done under contract for the War
Department.
Committee amendments retaining
during the coming fiscal year the pres
ent organization of the War Depart
ment we're accepted by the Senate.
Baker Request Eliminated
Upon a point of order raised by Sem
ator Mcclellan, Democrat, of Tennes-
see, who asserted it was general legis-
lation inserted in an appropriation bill
in violation Of the rules, the commit
tee amendment recommended by Secre-
tary Baker authorizing the President
to appoint a committee to represent
this country at meeting of the In
ternational Aircraft Standards Com
mission in Paris this month was elm
mated.
The amendment also would have au-
thorized the payment by the United
States of a proportionate share of the
expenses for maintenance of a perma-
nent Office Of the commission in Paris.

Senate Cuts Salary of
Hare to $4,000 a Year
McKellar Charges Packers Are
Fauore din the Disposal Of
Surplus Var Meat Supply

WASHINGTON, June 24.-The Sem
ate, by vote of 81 to %, adopted an
amendment offered by Senator France,
Republican, of Maryland, and modified
by Senator Reed, Democrat, of Mis-
souri,, limiting the salary of C. W. Hare,
director of sales and in charge of dis
posal of surplus war materials, to $12,-
600. Mr.. Hare now is being paid at the
rate Of $4,000 year.
During the discussion Senators Nc
Kellar, Democrat, of Tennessee, and
Reed criticised the manner in which
war materials were being disposed of
by the government, and especially the
surplus supply of meats, estimated to
be worth $65,000,0oo. Senator Nc
Kellar called attention to a newspaper
item which said that all bids for this
meat had been rejected because they
were too low, and charged that the
packers were being especially favored
by the War Department in the disposal
of this meat. He asserted that Mr..
Hare sis the only man in the United
States that can be found who says that
this meat must not be sold so the
people can get the benefit, but that
1t must be put on the market so that
only the packers can get it,"
Did Mr.. Hare make the restriction
.HoI ~ can OHly De SOlQ IN carload
lots?" asked Senator Lenroot.
Chairman Wadsworth said he did not
know, but asserted that if this meat
were sold in smaller quantities, or if
the government were compelled to open
stores for the purpose of retailing it.,
a much larger appropriation would be
required He said applications for bids
had been sent to 10000 retail dealers
and others by the War Department.
Il cannot see," he added, "that any-
body is criminally negligent in this
matter. I don't hink the Secretary of
War or the Director of ales can be
blamed for the public refusal to buy
these goods"
