IMAI. v. E. HOBSON
| TO Be BURIED HERE
Victim of Fall to Be Given
Military Honors in Arling-
ton Cemetery.

The body of Maj. Walter E. Hobson,
U. S. A., retired, who was killed IN an
accidental fall from the seventh moor
of the Philadelphia Y. M. 9. A. FIJI
day night, will be buried with military
honors at o'clock this afternoon IN
Arlington National Cemetery.
Maj. Hobson's body was found lying
on,a sky-light below the open window
of his room. A brother Maj. William
H Hobson. u. S. A., professor of mill
tary science at Georgetown University,
who brought back the body from Phila-
delphia, said the coroner had come TO
the conclusion that the death apparently
was due to an accident. Maj. Hobson
has been a sufferer from heart disease
and his brother thinks he may have
had an attack while standing or leaning
out the window.
The officer had been in the insurance
business since his retirement on April
20, 1923. Since then he had lived part
of the time IN Washington and lately
had moved to Philadelphia. He was
graduated from the United States Mill
tary Academy in 1909 and served dur
ing the World War with the 9th In
fantry, one of the regiments of the I'd
Division. He was A years old and a
native of Tennessee.
His brother. who went to Philadel-
phia to investigate his death, reported
that Maj. Hobson apparently was in
good spirits when last seen by friends.
His business affairs we're in good shape.
The body was not discovered until the
day following death, when a friend
with whom he had lived started a
search for him.
Mai Hobson is survived by two
brothers and three sisters. His parents
are Mr.. and Mrs. Horace P. Hobson
of Summerdale, Tenn. He was unmar-
ried. A number of former classmates
at West Point will act as pallbearers
at the services today.

Washington, Oct. (P-The bright feathered Crrostmas present parrot now tapping against the quarantine door of the United States public health service, may be barred from the 1880 holiday trade under sus- picion of psittacosis.
 While asserting they would not wish permanently to prevent traf- fic in the bird pets, public health service officials today said it was very doubtful if they could see their way clear to lifting the ban this year.
 Too vivid was the memory of the psittacosis epidemic which last year followed the November arrival of pretty poll parrots for the great American Christmas tree.
 The epidemic totaled 169 cases, with 33 deaths, mortality rate of 19 per cent. These case, occurring in 15 states and the District of Columbia, did not include 16 1ab- oratory infections with two deaths resulting from studies of how to combat the disease.
 Quite by accident, and to their own great grief. the research ex- perts of the service proved psitta- cosis possessed a degree of infectiv- ity approaching that of measles or smallpox.
 Public health officials now are working on methods aimed toward rendering the parrot traffic harm less so that these colorful and talk ative birds from the tropic again may enter American pet shops.

 Forest fires were sweeping parch- ed areas in California and Virginia today, while in Texas prolonged drought was broken by torrential rains followed by destructive floods and 8 tornado.
 At least 20 persons were injured, numerous farm houses were demol- ished and crops ruined in Houston County, Texas, when tornado cut a swath from 200 to 320 yards wide near LateXo.
 The most serious flood damage was caused at Brady, Texas, where the business district was under three to eight feet of water follow ing the overflow of the Brady river From thirty to forty homes were carried away, leaving 200 to 30l persons homeless.

Fire Prevention Week Ushered In
 With Six Alarms; Damage Is $l,00O

Fire Prevention week in New Brit ain started off with changing of the fire alarm, shrieking of sirens and general unrest in the fire engine houses, all day yesterday, from 3:15 in the morning until 5:39 in the eve ming, there being five fires alto gether, with six alarms, and pro- perty damage of less than $1,000.
 The first, and most disastrous fire, occurred at S:15 in the morning. when a barn, owned by Charles An derson of 65 Rocky Hill avenue, was burned to the ground with two tons of hay, some farm wagons and farm tools. Cause of the fire is not known, and the damage is about $500.
 The second fire was a still alarm at 11:37 in the forenoon, an auto mobile being found atire at Stanley and Peck streets. The car was own ed by Louis Grappsso, address not known, and the loss was about S25.
 The third fire came at 3:55 p. m.. when an automatic refrigerator in the home of Reginald E. Towers of 50 Hamilton street began to smoke. This was also still alarm, and the damage was slight. the fire be- ing confined to the wiring.
 The next fire was still alarm blaze in chimney at the home of Mrs. Walter J. Doyle at 47 Harri- son street. The call came at 5:35 p. m. and there was no loss.
 The final fire of the first fire pre- vention day was at 5:39 p. m., when an alarm was rung from Box 446. Pennington and Commonwealth ave- nues. This proved to be a dump fire, which was blazing briskly when the firemen arrived. One line of hose was sufficient to quell the blaze, and the all-out signal came in nine min Etes after the bell had struck.
 The alarm that made a sixth for five fires was for the first fire in the early morning. Box 235, at Chap man and Kelsey streets, was rung in by a man who saw the Anderson barn blazing, and three minutes later, somebody at Henry and East streets saw the reflection in the sky and pulled Box 241. bringing three additional companies to the scene, besides the three already there. The two boxes coming close together. succeeded in taking more than two thirds of the fire fighting apparatus to the outskirts of the city

CONVENTION
 ADJOURNED. TODAY
Delegates Watch Legion Parade,
 Do Little Business

Boston. Oct. LP)-A brief session for the disposal of routine affairs was the extent of the activities to- i day of the American Federation of Labor convention. Other business was deferred until tomorrow to give the 400 delegates an opportunity to witness the parade of the American Legion, which is also holding its convention here.
 Resolutions contributed by dele gates were compiled<and made ready 1 for future action of the convention at large. With the time for nNng resolutions expiring tonight, 1t was expected that action on those sub mitted could be started tomorrow. Greens Appeal Heard
 The convention had before 1t for consideration the appeal of Presi- dent William Green for immediate 1 inauguration of the five day work week in industry with the exception of the service groups. Although some branches of organized labor are now working a five day week, the appeal of President Green in his opening ad- dress to the convention yesterday paved the way for the effort to make such a program universal.
 The problem of unemployment, which labor leaders were confident the present convention would assist in solving, was discussed by Presi- dent Hoover who addressed the cons vention yesterday afternoon.
 The fine cooperation in the pro- viding of organized employment through federal, state and municipal works and utility construction" President Hoover said, has been an important contribution in taking up the slack of unemployment. The measure of success is easily demon- strated. The department of com merce reports to me that public works and the construction work by railways and utilities in the last eight months amount, to about $4,500,0 ,000,- 000 as compared with about S4,000,- 000,000 in the same period of the bOOiu year Ol I5-' J, Ol dl llIClt tdSt ol about S500000,000. In all previous depressions these works decreased, so that the gain is even more than the apparent figures.
 We have thus had nationwide cooperation and team play which have greatly ameliorated the hard ship of this depression. These meas ures have served as a practical sys- tenn of unemployment insurance"
 President Hoover commented on the lessening of the hardships of the depression through the elimination of disputes between business and labor Our freedom from strike and lockout" he said, lis we'll evil denced by the statement of the de- partment of labor that in the last depression there were more than D. 900 labor disputes, many of them of major character and accompanied by great public disorder, as compared with less than 300 disputes in this period, and these mostly of minor character. And the great body of labor itself deserves much praise, for never was it's individual efficiency higher than today"
