STUDY DEMANDS
OF TRADE UNIONS
c. of C. and Quota Club Will
Ascertain Effect on Build
ing Program.

As result of request by the Mas
ter Builders Association, the Washing
ton Chamber of Commerce and the
Quota Club are making a special study
of the effect which the granting Of
the demands of union men employed in
building trades would have on opera
tons here, particularly the Government
building program.
The investigation of the chamber is
being made by its committee on build
ing industry and that by the Quota
Club by special committee composed
of Miss Johanna Busse and Miss Mary
Jane Winfree.
The demands of the workers which
are now being negotiated, include in
creased wages and in many instances
an appeal for a fve-day week. The
trade and civic associations of the city
were asked by the builders association
whether they thought that the Gov
eminent operations would be retarded
or materially delayed by the increased
cost which would follow the granting
of the workers demands.

CR0ATIANS REMAIN
HOSTILE TO KING
Alexander Abandons His Idea of
Attempting to Placate the Dis

BELGRADE, Jugoslavia. May IA
King Alexander has abandoned what
he had planned as a subtle move to
placate dissenting elements in Croatia,
which has claimed that its interests
have becn subordinated to those Of
other sections of the kingdom.
The monarch's original intention was
that when Queen Marie's third child is
born. probably next month, the ac-
couchement would take place at Zagreb
Croatian capital. where he planned a
temporary Summer court. Croatian en-
thusiasm for the child born on their
soil might. it was thought, still some of
the antagonism which its people felt
for their rulers.
This hostility recently, however, has
developed to too great proportions, par
ticlllarly since the establishment of the
dictatorship, and Queen Marie yester-
day lett for the royal castle at Bled for
her confinement.
Later this Summer at Bled, Bucharest
dispatches have indicated, the child
Rumanian King Michael, probably will
see his father, the exile Prince Carol.
The visit is understood to have been
sanctioned by the Rumanian regency

 A similar instance occurred when was chief quartremastsr of the Tonapah, and we vert to the as- sistance of a disabled submarine off Hatteras. We used long line with a barrel on the end of it. The idea of this was to have the barrel float from the submarine toward the ship that we could pick in up and get hold of the line, but after several attempts, we gave up this plan.
 I then got a big piece of pipe about four feet long and had it in serted in a rocket carrying a long line. After determining the ap- proximate and correct angle, we sent the rocket out on it's way, car rying the line, the end of which was fastened to our ship A rocket

 HALLS HER LAST LOAD

After nineteen years of faithful service, the old mare, belong to John Mills, local transferman, sud- denly decided she wouldn't live any longer yesterday afternoon, just as she reached the top of the hill at the corner of Third and D streets with a half-ton load of coal on the sled, and laid down in the shaft, never to get up again.
 The horse had been kept in the barn all winter by Mills, awaiting such time as he would be unable to get around with his truck. Yes terday the occasion came when the truck broke down. But due to old age and long inactivity, the horse was unable to stand the sudden exertion, and also broke down.

 ALASKAN INFORMATION

Showing that Alaska's publicity is far reaching, letter was receiv- cd by the Governors office this morning asking for half a dozen pamphlets giving information about the Territory, from Herrick E. Young, Professor of English and Li- brarian for the American College of Teheran, Persia.
 The pamphlets requested con- cerned different industries and phases of life in Alaska, and were desired for reference use in the l- brary of the college.

was sent to the bridge and the cap- tain immediately stopped the ship. Searchlights played on the water and finally one of the rays spied the man aloft on a small raft way ing his hand frantically.
 A life boat was lowered and in a short time the unfortunate victim was taken aboard in an unconsci- GUS state. We later learned that he had been suffering from exposure to salt water, hunger and thirst. He was in our ships hospital for one month before he was physical ly fit cnce again to leave. He prov cd to be the sole survivor of a schooner that had been laundering in storm.
 Just after the war. when I was aboard the President Grant with Captain Rind, had my first ex- perience to go out in a life boat at sea. A freighter had communi- cated with us by radio and told us that they had a man aboard who was in serious condition, suffer ing strained ligament, and both ships proceeded to a predetermined position.
 When we get alongside the freighter I decided to take over a motor boat 50 as to expedite the transfer. Before leaving I wanted to be sure of having plenty of gaso- line aboard The chaplain of our vessel insisted upon accompanying us and we did not get very far be- fore he was seasick, lying at the bottom of the boat. We were try ing to make his trip as comfortable as possible when suddenly the mo- tor stopped. Upon examination, we found that the additional gaso- line I had ordered was Kerosene. We had to row back with the motor boat to the side of the President Grant A pulling boat was low cred.
 Again we started from the Presi- dent Grant for the freighter. The man was transferred and as soon as he was placed in the ships hos pital, the doctor performed an op- eration which saved his life.
 This, as I said, was my first ex- pericnce in going out in life boat and proved to be my last, as the next time I figured in 8 rescue was when I was captain of the Preai- dent Roosevelt and we answered a call from the British freighter An tinoe and rescued "A of her crew in a heavy storm in mid-Atlantic during January, 1926.

Police viii Stop Running
Into Street Between
Parked Autos.

To reduce deaths of children in
indianapolis streets, Police Chief
Claude Worley today ordered all
policemen to guard closely against
small boys and girls running from
the curb behind parked cars, to take
them home and reprimand them on
the first offenSe, and to bring them
into juvenile court the second time
the rule is violated.
The move followed the death of
4-year-old James Richardson, 828
River avenue, Tuesday night.
In view of his mother, who stood
on the front porch of their home,
the boy darted between two autorno-
biles parked at the curb into the
path of an automobile and was
fatally injured. He died at city hos
pital an hour later.
Father Drives Home
His father, Charles Richardson, a
fruit dealer, was notified in Lansing,
Mich, of the tragedy, and sped
southwark to Kokomo, Ind, where a
bearing burned out in his fruit truck.
A barbecue stand operator drove him
to indianapolis.

Mrs. Richardson, absolved him from
blame, although tire marks showed
his car skidded more than one hun
dred feet after striking the boy be-
fore it was stopped.
In their home today Richardson
and his wife denied allegations that
police were searching for him to ar
rest him for child neglect. Juvenile

MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. Is. -
Doubling the intensity Of their
search, 500 city and state police to-
day surrounded the Twin Cities and
guarded underworld haunts, seeking
the fiend who assaulted and MUIR
cred Dorothy Aune, 12-year-old
junior high school girl.
Spurred on by the heartbroken
plea of Andrew Aune and Mrs. Aune,
parents of the child, the police sent
squads through all sections of
Minneapolis and st. Paul, guarded
highways and watch train stations.
Dorothy's body was found in a
gutter Wednesday wrapped in gunny
sacks. Eight stands of wire had
been wound about her throat, her
clothing was bloodstained and torn.
A wad of paper was stuffed in her
mouth. A watch, gift of her sister
last spring because Dorothy re-
ceived all "a" grades at school, was
ticking on her wrist.
Two Suspects Held
Grant Blake, about Is, a former
inmate of the st. Peter Insane Asy-
lum, who claimed Faribault, Mimi,
as his home, was arrested today for
questioning in connection with the
murder.
Police said there were bloodstains
on Blake'S shoes.
He was arrested after employees OF
a lumber yard in the region OF the
Aune home reported that he was
annoying women.
Blake was unable to give a clear
account of his actions on T'Eesday
night when Dorothy disappeared.
Six men were arrested last night.
but five were released. Andrew OIL
ness, %, a mechanic, was held for
further questioning. He was arrest
ed when neighbor reported to po-
lice he attempted to molest her g.
year-old daughter. He denied
knowledge Of the murder.
Elderly Man Sought
The search centers on an elderly
man described by Dorothy's sister
Sylvia. She told police she had no
ticed a man of about 40 years who
several times had sought to entlce
small girls into his automobile.
One clew which the police are
seeking is Dorothy'S red tam. When
the child went to a grocery on an
errand Tuesday, her brown bobbed
curls were covered by the tam. 1t
was not found with the body.
So many persons sought to offer
their sympathy to the stricken Aune
family today that police were sent
to guard the home and to regulate
traffic.
The police scan closely every car
that passes, hoping to catch sight
of the elderly man described by
Sylvia.
Dorothy will be buried Saturday.
