FOUND DEAD IN BED BY SO
Mrs. Regina Schultz Victim of Apo
plectic Stroke

Mrs. Regina Schultz passed away at
her home in this city some time during
the early morning Of September %.
The exact hour is not definitely, known
as she was alone in her room when
summoned by the grim reaper.
The youngest son, Alfred, had re-
tired to his room and shortly after
midnight was awakened by his moth
er, who was searching for hot water
bottle to relieve severe headache.
These headaches had been of frequent
occurrence and did not cause the boy
any uneasiness, as he thought she
would recover in a short time, as
usual.
When he went to her room in the
morning he called to his mother, and
receiving no reply, walked to the bed
and attempted to awaken her, without
avail. He became alarmed and has
tened to the Adams home, a short dis
tance away. The neighbors went i'm.
mediately to the house and found the
corpse, death having claimed her sew
eral hours before.

Commission acts largely on the ad-

matter of declaring emergencies for
which priority rulings may be is
sued, the Senate committee cited sew
eral instances where construction
was being held up on account of
transportation.
Bridge Building Held Up.
One was a bridge at Springfield,
Mass. that is being held up on ac-
count of not being able to ship the
piling required.
Another instance was a main high
way between Philadelphia and At
lantic City. which has been closed
for nearly a year and will be closed
for another year unless stone is de-
livered. Still another is an apart
ment that is standing unfinished for
lack of material, but will, when
complete, house thirty-three fam

Each of these instances. Mr. Willard
believed. should be classified as an
emergency and acted upon at once.

it was said.
That Washington stands apparently
alone in this respect is testified to by
information filed with the Common
Brick Manufacturers Association of
America in response to questionnaires
sent to more than a hundred of it's
members.
Substance of Replies.
The replies. according to an an
nouncement by the association. show
ed that those manufacturers who
have contracts for coal at reason
able price are told by the coal deal
ers that no deliveries can be made,
but coal can be had from other deal
ers at from 100 to 400 per cent above
the contract price. There apparently
is no shortage of coal except on con-
tracts The coal profiteer has plenty,
but at price prohibitive to the brick
manufacturer. Thus the supply goes
to those who manufacture luxurieS or
non-essentials, where cost doesn't
count.
with this information on hand the
secretary-manager attended the hear
ing of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in Washington on July and 8.
conference of various construction
interests was held at the Hotel Will
lard the evening previous to the hear
ing. and the complaints were CONSOLE
dated as far as possible and spokes-
men selected to present them.
Nearly every branch of the con-
struction industry was represented at
the hearing, and with as much force as
the speakers possessed the Commits
sion was made aware of the deplorable
condition in the industry, and the mis-
fortune facing: the manufacturers if
relief is not given.
Alleges MiscOnceptiOn.
1T was apparent throughout the
hearing that there is not a full ap-
probation of the Importance of con-
struction. Officials do not associate it
with the safe shelter of the people of
the country as an essential equal to
food and fuel.
THE hearing emphasized the great
need of closer cooperation between the
various units of the construction in
dustry and the necessity of broadcast
publicity.

manufacturers of chewing gum. talk
