Double Tragedy May Follow
Quarrel Over Husbands
Failure to Work.

Angry at his wife because she
complained to the court that he
would not work, George Thomas
Swami, forty-eight years old. to-
day shot and probably mortally
wounded her, and then turned the
revolver on himself. His death
was instantaneous.
The shooting took place in the
second-story front bedroom Of the
Swami home, 52S Sixth street
southeast.
Neighbors, attracted by the re-
port of the revolver, saw Mrs.
Swami Stagger from her front
door and fall on the stoop.
Recovering Is Dubious.
The groaning form OF the woman
was rushed to Casualty Hospital,
where, It is said. she probably will
not recover. She is sixty-five years
old.
Two little girls, Swann's daugh-
ters, were at school at the time OF
the shooting. Three other children,
one daughter and two sons, were at
work
When the police reached the body

and their early arrival. they say.
probably prevented the destruction of
the place by fire. since great piles OF
bedclothes and newly washed laun-
dry were lying in disorder in prox-
unity TO the body.
Fired at close range. two bullets
took effect in Swann's body. one just
above and the other directly over the
heart.
Three bullets took effect IN Mrs.
Swann's abdomen. Two bullet holes
through her right hand showed that

Came Here In May.
Swami moved to Washington on
May last with his wife and two
smaller children. The other chill.
dren had been employed here for
several years.
All his life Swami had lived near
Dentville, in Charles county, Md,
farming. Rheumatism forced him to
quit work.
Two weeks ago, according to Roy
Swami, q son, Mrs. Swami, after
many quarrels with her husband
over his continued idleness, appealed
to Chief Justice Mccoy, of the Dis
crict Supreme Court.
The court ordered Swami to get a

and two little girls.
MY mother and father had differ.
ences over the matter, and he con.
tinued to say he could not work be-
cause OF his rheumatism" Roy
Swami told the police.
THE pistol he used has been in
the house for some time, but no one
ever suspected 1t would be used in
this manner"
Roy is employed at the Naval Dis
rensary Hospital.

There are. of course. three. ways by
which Europe can pay her debts to

Should the American people indulge in
the purchase of securities of foreign en-

situation. but Americans have been slow
in the past to invest heavily in European
businesses.
The export of goods which would he
payment for debts to America would
help Europe but the tariff laws under
consideration in congress will tend to
reduce the amount that Europe can sell
here. If it ever comes to a question of
permitting foreign manufacturers to
flood American markets and hurt Amer

forcgo. payment of foreign debts and
keep American industries.
But there IS a mean between two OK

to American industries or above which
