Widows Add New Burden
 To Patient Taxpayers

London, March 27.-British war widows seem loath to take unto themselves a husband for the sec- ond time and, because of this coy ness, the British taxpayer has to suffer.
 When the ministry of pensions submitted its budget in March, 1924, for the amount of money to be paid in pensions to war widows is estimated that seven per cent of them would remarry during the year. Unfortunately the calculations were wrong, for, up to the present time only four per cent have dis- carded their widow weeds. Conse- quently the exchequer has had to grant an extra s10,000,000 to pay their pensions.

ID WAIT ! YEARS FOR IMPROVEMENTS
Pittsburgh Will Ezpend St4,- O00,0O0 for Better Facilities

Pittsburgh, March 27.-A $l4,- 100000 project that will mean the strengthening of street. widening of several others, and an addition to a railroad passenger terminal the wrecking of freight house, en- largement of tunnel and other mis- cellaneous items, is expected to start in Pittsburgh April 1.
 These tasks are included in the Pennsylvania railroads plan for the improvement of It's passenger termi- nal facilities, and 1t is estimated that ten years will have elapsed before the whole project has been complet- ed. The major portion of the work, however, or that which will have the greatest effect on train service, prob ably will be finished within five years.
 Just what the improvement will mean to the railroad was explained recently by Robert Trimble, com pany engineer. who said 1t would speed up passenger traffic In and around Pittsburgh and would do away with delays that through trains som etimes experience on their lalts in the smoky city. To the ex- tent that passenger traffic will be speeded up, freight traffic also will benefit. MT. Trimble said, although the new tracks and improvements will have no direct bearing on this part of the systems operations,
 The first thing that will be under taken will be the strengthening of Grant Street, This thoroughfare starts on a straight line from the main business section of Pittsburgh toward the Pennsylvania terminal When it reaches Seventh Avenue however, 1t seems to terminate, for standing in front of 1t Is a freight house. Despite appearances, how ever, Grant Street goes on, but it. is necessary to go down Seventh Aye. nue short distance before the elusive thoroughfare is picked UT again.
 Under the railroads plan the ob. structivs freight house will be re. moved and Grant Street will con. tinue unhindered on its course tt the terp1ina1. On the last stretch from Seventh Avenue to the station the street will be widened from GO tt so feet.
 On the east side of this new thor oughfare, indicatings point to thu possibility of a new post office fol Pittsburgh The government hat held a site on Liberty Avenue fol this purpose. but the railroad needed this space for new tracks In connec ton with the improvement. A dea was effected whereby the space were traded.
 On either side of the station pro per, at the present time, are severa tracks. One side is used for trains ol the Panhandle and the other fo trains on the Fort Wayne division Passengers coming from or going t these trains must cross the tracks and it is planned to build tunnel underneath to eliminate this neces sty.
 A tunnel about 1,5o0 feet long run ming between the terminal and tn Fourth Avenue station will be wid ened to permit the passage of tw trains within its walls. At the poin where Liberty Avenue and Gran Street intersect 1t is probable that new and modern office building vii be erected to take the place of seve ral old structures that now occup he trangle.

Eight Inch Steel Plates
 To Reveal Inner Secrets

London. March 27.--It will be possible, in the near future by the aid of the X-ray, to see through steel eight inches thick, Professor Pullin. director of the Pathological Research department at Woolwich Government arsenal, predicted in a recent address before the Royal so- ciety.
 It is an easy matter at present by the use of the X-ray to pene- trate pieces of steel three inches in thickness. Professor Pullin asserted, but what is sought by scientists is an apparatus to enable them to ex- anime into castings ten or twelve inches through. This is desired 60 that flaws may be detected in cast ings, and to avoid serious danger to workmen's lives.

Ing, however, that he was much graft

employees are having little, if any,
difficulty regarding the renewal of
wage scales, all of which he said is
not only comforting TO the country at
large, but indicates more than ordi-

building trades.
1t was Secretary Mellon Of the
Treasury Department who reported
regarding the business conditions. IL
is understood that in his opinion
those industries which are generally
supposed to be barometers all seem
to point to healthy conditions and
the prospects of Improvement.
The cabinet was informed that
there has been wide speculation in

has been harmful in certain quarters,
it has not tended to diminish general

in the morning and danced and at
tended house party that night,

faint at the noon recess of her trial
yesterday on a charge of murder.
Miss Ellington yesterday saw six
Jurors picked to pass on her fate.
Five men and a woman were select
ed. The 16-year-old matricide had
hoped for a jury of elderly men. and

ing, as only one woman was passed
temporarily.
The Juvenile Court. which had first
Jurisdiction over Miss ELM gson,
passed the case on to the Superior
Court The maximum sentence Miss
Ellingson faces for her act is life
Imprisonment. The young defendant
has legal and moral protection
against hanging. A California law
forbids hanging persons under Is
ways opposed the hanging of women
of any age.

When the jury is completed defense
counsel will advance the plea that
Miss Ellingson is suffering from a
mental condition bordering on in
sanity. The girl has confessed the
killing. She has told of the quarrel
with her mother over new dresses
and undesirable acquaintance to
whom her mother objected; of the
argument which led to the fatal shot
and of taking all the money in the
house and walking away over her
dead parents body to renew the com
partnership of man friends.
Before Dorothy killed her mother
the Ellingson home stood divided be-
cause of the daughters activities.
The father had left after a disagree
ment with her mother when Filing
son objected TO the hours and COM
pany the girl was heeping. His wife
dead, his daughter in jail, the father
was in court yesterday and caressed
