About Her Throat Failed
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

PONTIAC, Mich, April 2s.-Anson
Best, twenty two years old, of Flint,
day confessed that he had killed
Vera Schneider, nineteen year old telc-
phone operator, who was stranglcd on
the porch of an unoccupied house near
her home here about midnight Sat
urday.
"She was respondent and said she
wanted to die" said Best. former
service man. "Shc kissed me and
begged me to choke her with handkcr-
chiefs, and l did"
The prisoners story was that he had
met Miss Schneider, who was a
stranger to him, about 10 o'clock Sun
day evening; that she had first spoken
to him; that she led the way to the
vacant house, after complaining Of
some trouble that she would not cX-
plain; that on the porch she first asked
him for a knife, which he did not
possess, and then suggested handker-
chiefs with which he might choke her;
that he demurrcd, but finally yielded
when she begged and kissed" him.
Best was taken into custody yestcr-
day morning. He was later identified
as man seen coming up from bank
crime, about the time the murder was
y
with a handkerchief
Bests story apparently left the
authorities anything but satisfied as to
it's credibility. Best late to- might
made at least one change it his story.
He is said to have admitted that he
choked' the girl with his hands. Up to
that time he had asserted he merely
frightened the knot of handkcrchcfs
that he said Miss Schneider had her.
self placed about her neck
"When | found that she was not
quite dead after several minutes, took
the handkerchefs off and choked her
with my hands. Then | tied the
handkerchiefs around her neck again.
he said.
The previous denial of this choking
had been in spite of the evidence Of
thumb marks on the dead girls throat.
The only mark of any violence was a
slight bruise over the right ear.

The announcement yesterday that tn G
city had $5,000.000 available for in.
creases in the salaries of city en-
pIoyees caused much speculation among
some of the $4,000 employees concerned
as to whether the additional money
would be distributed on fiat and
equitable basis among them or political
preference would intervene.
Many city employees complained that
favorltism was shown in the last in
crease-of salaries year ago, and that
they were Disseminated against in
1avor of employees who had pull with
political leaders or were favorites OF
inc heads of departments. The matter
OIL distributing the increases last wear
was made discretionary with the heads
OF departments to the extent that they
we're asked by the finance committee Of
the Board OF Estimate to submit list
OF those who deserved increases. Some
or the employees are wondering if the
same method is going to be employed
this time.
The question may lead to a lively
time in the Board of Estimate when #
comes up for consideration. Major La
Guardia, President of the Board of
Aldermen, yesterday declared that he
would flight to the finish" on any other
proposal than a fiat increase of 5000
for all employees and n minimum sal
airy of $1,000. In view of the former
complaints, he said he would not con-
sent to the exercise Of any discretion
ary powers by the heads of depart
mcnts in the distribution of the pres
ent increases. He declared that if
there were undcserving employees in
the departments that fact should be
bo
from the service.
Comptroller Craig is designated as
chairman of the Finance Committee to
work out plan Of distribution of the
$5,000,000. He is working on the
schedules now, but no one in the
BOARD Of Estimate besides himself APP
parently knows just what plan he has
in mind. 1t is understood the propo-
sition is to determine lump sum for
each department and distribute it on
percentage basis as worked out by
the Comptroller and approved by the
Finance Committee. The Comptroller
said yesterday that the schedules were
not yet completed.
favor on the plan suggested by the
Aldermanic President, and he is likely
to take sides against the Comptroller
in the Finance Committee and the
Board Of Estimate if the latter should
insist upon any other method of dis
tribution. All the members of the
Board Of Estimate are on the Finance
Committee. Some of them complain
that the Comptroller shows little dis
position to discuss matters in commit
tee until he has worked out his own
plans. Consequently certain members
arc awaiting with interest the full dis
closure of the plans for distributing
the $5,000,000 in increased salaries
when the matter comes before the
Board of Estimate in open session,
which will probably be at it's meeting
tomorrow.

Bonus Offers
Will Include
Paid Insurance
Value Of Policies to Increase
Annually and Loans Nav
Be Obtained OH Them
From Any Postoffice

WASHINGTON, April % (By The A.
sociated ess).-Republican members
of the House Ways and Means Commit
tee virtually decided to- day to include
in their soldier relief Legislation program
plan Of paid-up insurance, its value
to increase annually by compounded
interest, and on which loans could be
obtained from any postofficc
With this addition, ex-servicc men
might elect any one Of the five follow
ing plans included in the Republican
program: A cash bonus of $125 q day
for each day Of service; aid in buying
farm land, to be reclaimed by the gov
ernment; aid in buying city homes;
aid in their education, or the insur-
ance. 10 popularizc the last four
plans. the Republicans propose to al
low $1.75 day for each day of service
instead of the $1.25 cash bonus, as the
basis for computing farm and home
aid, loans and the amount of financial
aid each man might receive in the form
OF educational training
The insurance plan as such was said
by the committeeman to be "mis-
nomer," but they declared it was the
most attractive" of any of the five
plans. The average period Of service
for World War veterans was 400 days
they said, explaining that under the
insurance plan the average veteran
could receive paidup insurance
policy of s1,857, payable to him in cash
at the end of twenty years, or immc-
diately to his heirs in event of death.
The loan value of the insurance, de-
noted in the legislation as "adjusted
service certificates" would not accrue
until the end of the third year the
plan had been in force, and at that
time an ex-service man with a record
of 400 days. service would be entitled
to a loan of 1851. This would be the
cash value of his certificate" at that
time at 5 per cent interest compounded
annually.
New Plan Adds to Cost
Similarly, the veteran of 100 days
would be entitled to paid up, twenty
cash surreq aer or loan value of $137
in three years; the 2OO-day veteran to
insurance of 1923, with loan value of
$275; the 300-day veteran to insurance
of S1,392, with loan value of $413,
and the 500-day veteran of INSURANCE 9
of s2,32l, with loan value of $500.
This plan, if adopted universally by
the World War veterans, would cost the
government far moro than the cash
bonus of $1.25 day, committeeman
said. Estimating that 3,59O,Oo0 ex.
service persons will be affected by the
bill, committeeman declared that the
ultimate cost of the insurance plan, if
adopted by all, would be approximately
$6,000,000,000. The cash bonus, it was
estimated, would cost $107,OOO,DOO if
accepted by all.

Submarine Fired Upon
As Liquor Smuggler

WASHINGTON, April %. -
Mistaken for liquor smuggler,
the American submarine S-4 was
fired upon Monday night by sub
marine chaser operating under
the direction of Coast Guard, off
the Florida coast, according to
report made to the Navy Depart
ment to-day by Commander P. X.
Robottom of the S-4.
A dozen shots were fired from
a rifle, and one from a six pound
cr. but none took effect, Com
mander Robottom reported. The
heavy shot came uncomfortably
close.
