WOMAN, 70, BURNS
W|THL|FE SAVINGS
Husband Helpless to Aid VIC
tim Trapped in Attic of
Fairfax County Home.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


ALEXANDRIA, Va, February 2s.-
An attempt to save her life's savings
from a hiding place in the attic of
her burning home today cost Mrs.
Mary e. Lloyd. 20 years old, wife of
Samuel Lloyd, Franconia, Fairfax
County, her life.
Mrs. Lloyd was alone when the fire
was started, it is believed, by a de-
fective f1ue. She realized that she
had $500, her lifes savings, tucked
away in the attic along with $4,000,
which belonged to her son, william
Lloyd
She started for the attic, and the
fire, blazing fiercely, cut off her es-
cape. Her screams ATTRACTED the hus-
band and a neighbor, who were
forced to jump for their lives after
vain efforts to reach her.
Unable to Effect Rescue.
Mr.. Lloyd. nearly distracted, stood
by the blazing building while his
companion of years died in the flames.
There was no telephone near to sum-
mon the fire apparatus. The charred
remains were taken from the smold-
ering ashes late this afternoon. Mrs.
Lloyd is survived by four daugh-
fers-Mrs. Frank Rogers, Mrs. AL
bert Rogers and Mrs. Harry Rogers
Of Franconia and Mrs. Marshall

William Lloyd, Franconia.

OIL TRUST PROBE
PLEA SENT SENATE
Units of Old Standard Combi-
nation Seen Violating Dis
solution Decree Aims.

Investigation by the Department of
Justice of the results of the Standard
Oil dissolution decree was recon-
mended by the Federal Trade Com
mission in a report sent yesterday to
the Senate by President Coolidge.
While companies which were mem
bers of the former combination now
operate less consistently as group"
the commissions report said, some of
the more important members are
fortifying themselves by acquiring
control of independents and entering
new branches of the industry as in
tegrated and dominant units in the
territories in which they operate"
Former Standard units found to
threaten domination of their sales
territories included the Standard Oil
companies of New Jersey, California,
Kentucky and Indiana.
See Price Domination.
The last named, with the Prairie
Oil Co, another former subsidiary of
the Standard Oil group, was asserted
to dominate lin a substantial degree"
the price of. crude oil and of gasoline
in the mid d-continent area, which is
the barometer of the petroleum
market Independents were declared
by the commission to keep in touch
with these two companies and to op-
pose, through. their various associa-
tions. any effort at price cutting.
The commissions report was sub.
mitted in response to a resolution BY
Senator Trammell, Democrat, Florida
requesting the President to transmit
it '.if not incompatible With public
interest"
The Florida Senator charged that
the recent increases in the price OF
gasoline, amounting in some locali-
ties to cents a gallon, could NOT be
justified by the reserve supply or pro.
duction statistics
Consideration of the resolution was
blocked more than two weeks by sew
eral Senator's led by Senator Moses
Republican, New Hampshire, who ex-
planned that he feared publication OF
the report would embarrass activities
already begun by the Department of
Justice. Warning that companies
named in the report would be placed
on notice" of the charges against
them, Senator Moses urged that II be

RETIREMENT VOTE
RESTS ON COOLIDGE
House Leaders Unwilling to
Act Without Views on
Economy Program.

Government employees worn out by
long service through the best years
of their life are living in hopes to-
day that the House will be assured
by President Coolidge that the re-
tirement bill, which has already
passed the Senate, is not in conflict
with his financial program and that
ii will become law during the three
days remaining of the present ses-
sion of Congress.
This hope was heartened by the
Impression given by Senators Sterl-
ing and Stansfield after conference
with the President yesterday that
the Chief Executive was in sympathy
with the legisiataion
Statements made by Secretary
Work of the Interior Department and
by Secretary Davis of the Labor De-
partment, who said that they spoke
for the entire cabinet, and that they
believed the President himself is in
favor of this measure, and the prac-
tically unanimous sentiment in both
Houses of Congress for the retire
ment bill have caused the civil serv-
ice employees to have added hopes.
Budget Director TO Report.
Meanwhile the Republican leaders
in the House have shown reluctance
to act until they have direct assur-
ances from the President that pas
sage of this bill will not interfere
with his economy program.
The director of the budget, it is
understood, will advise the President
upon this matter.
1t is being emphasized by friends
of the clerks that the decision OF
Gen. Lord must be in their favor, be-
cause the increased cost to the Gov
eminent is Insignificant and the Gov
ernment actuary has shown in a pre-
pared statement that it would mean
a real saving to the Government.
1t Is pointed out that the passage
of this bill would really serve the
purpose for which the retirement law
was .originated-to weed out the in
competent and Inefficient, who must
now be kept on the Government pay
rolls out of charity, because the pres
ent retirement pay is insufficient to
keep them even when they have no
families.
s37 .OOO.OO0 In Fund.
Emphasis is placed on a recent re-
port which shows that there is now
more than S37 100000 in the retire
years before the Government will
have to participate in the cost OF
operation.
There are now some IL goo persons
badly in need of relief. The law ap-
plies to 100000 civil service en-
ployes throughout the United States.
The new bill. it is pointed out, in
creases the cost to the employees in
greater proportion than to the Gov
ernment. The employees are called
upon to pay 3 z per cent where now
they pay 212 per cent, and under the
bill as passed by. the Senate the Gov
ernment pays ony 2.1 per cent.
This legislation provides for optional
retirement, after 80 years of service,
for postal employees, mechanics and

The District appropriation bill for
the fiscal year 1926. as finally agreed
to in conference, was approved by the
Senate late yesterday
The conference report on the bill
will be laid before the House tomor-
row, and 1t is predicted, will be
adopted, and the bill will be sent to
the President for his signature.
As agreed to in conference, the bill
carries s9,000.00O as the lump sum
contribution of the Federal Govern
ment, instead of the s11, 900, 900 pro-
posed by the Senate. The House de-
clined to yield on this matter, and
the Senate conferees finally agreed
to the House provision.
Ihe House conferees on the other
hand, yielded on section of the
bill as it passed the House This
section provided that estimates of
appropriations for the District next
year should be submitted by the
Budget Bureau on. the same basis of
contribution by the Federal Govern
ment which the present bill pro-
vides-s9, 100000 lump sum. The sec
ton now goes cut of the bill. The
Senate conferees declined to yield on
the Senate amendment which struck
section from the measure.
Agree Judges Measures.
The only other item which was in
dispute between the two houses when
the conferees met for their final con-
ference yesterday afternoon related
to the Police Court. The House had
provided for two additional police
court judges and included provisions
changing court procedure. The Sem
ate had stricken ALI of these provi-
sions from the BILL providing merely
for two police court judges, as under
the old law. The conferees finally
reached an agreement& restoring the
House language so far as it related
to the two additional judges and
other court employees, but leaving
out OF the bill the provisions looking
to change in court procedure.
The two additional Police Court
judges were authorized in the new
traffic regulation bill. which has now
passed both houses and only awaits
the approval of the President to be-
come a law.
The District bill as now agreed to
in conference. and by the Senate,
carries a larger sum than any other
District appropriation bill, nearly

The Senate also passed the def
cheney appropriation bill carrying

enues of the District. The Senate
