Feud in Government Fil- ing Office Aired Before Interstate Commerce Committee.

Washington, April 10 CUP)--A gentle hammered woman whose hus- band attests they've never had spat in l 4 years of married life gave the. United Press today a graphic description of ner recent egg-throW- ing attack upon her boss at the federal power commission.
 This attack, savoring of comedy, has brought forth serious and sur prising allegations regarding tn, inner working of the commission, which controls some of Americas most valuable water-power sites.
 As a result of the attack, Mrs. Minnie L. Ward is under suspension from the power commission, where she served as file clerk for ten years. She has been a government employe for g years.
 Meanwhile, serious charges made by Mrs. Ward against Frank w. Griffith, her chief clerk, are before the attorney general, the interstat? commerce committee and Secretary Of Interior Wilbur, chairman of the power commission.
 Serious Charges
 Griffith is accused of abstractins from the government files valuable papers concerning the relations be- tween the power commission ani the power industry. The charges were made by Mrs. Ward after the egg-throwing incident climaxed q long standing feud between her and the chief clerl.
 Tt happened March c1 after Mir. Griffith had been working at a table opposite me for a week." Mrs. War1 a slight woman in her late fiftie,', explained today,
 That morning I began talking to him about jumblng the files and interfering with my work. telling him it was just about time to find out who's going to be chief clerk and file clerk.
 Finally I just got hysteyical and said You get cut of my room an1 stay out. Then | picked up d flower vase and threw that at him. He wiped the water off his face and grinned.
 T went over to a file case where I'd put a dozen eggs that had been delivered 10 me that morning. tore off the wrapper and began throwing them at him.
 Four Hit Mark
 T threw five eggs before he moved. Three of them hit him, too. He said to four men who wers standing in the room, Now you men, get this! Now get this..' Then he left the room with eggs spattered all over him. and I threw a sixth egg and hit him with that.

 It was an old story to Harley L. Clarke, president of the syndicate that announced Monday it's contro! of the Fox Film and Fox Theaters corporations. He had needed for years the measured admonition in his rise to power as head of the 00.000,0O0 Utilities Power and Light corporation.

 More than reminding him again of the value Of his time. the ancient timekeeper recalled to him a dream he now has opportunity to realize,
 He sought to fulfill the dream when he invested a half million dollars in q venture to develop edu- cational motion pictures for schools. It proved unsuccessful.
 It didn't turn out. but the money was well spent" Clarke said. T am convinced that talking pictures can bring to the school children of the nation the best educa tional talent in the world and some day I hope to do my part to make that possi' ble."

U. s. VICTOR IN FIRST
 TILT WITH AETNA CO.
Insurance Company Loses Initial Step In Suit to Recover Taxes Paid On Various Bonds.

Hartford, April 10 The United States government was victor in the first skirmish between the federal government and the Aetna Life h. surance company. The insurance company is trying to recover $316, 340.36 paid as taxes for 1923 and 1924. In a decision handed down by United States District Court the Judge Warren B. Burrows in the by the United States district attorney judge upholds the demurrer entered in behalf of the collector of internal revenue alleging that the district court had no jurisdiction in the case.
 The taxes assessed against federal. state and municipal bonds were paid by the company following an agree ment in 1927 which marked the close of period of disagreement during which the Aetna protested against the amount of tax demanded.
 After the agreement had been reached and the S376,540S6 had been paid, the United States Supreme court handed down a decision in fa- vor of the National Life Insurance company versus the federal govern ment, declaring that the statute which imposed such taxes of the federal, state and municipal bonds was unconstitutional.
 This decision led to the filing Of the Aetna company suit against the collector of internal revenue. It is now expected that the Aetna will appeal to the Circuit court of Appeals.
