Lilly Logan? There was no sign of her.
A ND when the last item of the first half Of
N the program had come to an end and the
pianist went down to the footlights as usual to
announce the short interval for Marks ciga-

frightful joke?
Mark and the perspiring troupe were in q
very chaos of nerves. The pianist and the
manager mutually held their heads Even the
usually uninterested stage hands suffered from
high blood pressure as they hung about the
wings A great cry Of I'VE want Lilly Logan
rang through the house, led by q party Of
undergraduates who were standing at the back.
There was movement IN the front row Of
seats. A girl with thick white veil squeezed
the hand Of a languid lady who smiled and
nodded back.

The girl leaned forward and said something
to a young man who stared and looked sur
prised. But he rose and placed his chair step
wise against the edge Of the stage. The audi
ence saw a slim figure mount the chair and
the platform, produce two songs from beneath
her coat and hand them to the pianist, who
was too weak to leave the stage. She caught
the eyes of the troupe-all their heads were
at the door-and kissed her hand to them.
Marks triumphant voice rang out across the
silent hall Lilly Logan, Lilly Logan" and
there was sob at the end of it.
She turned and raised her veil And the
crowd raised the roof. Such burst of cheer
ing had never been heard in that place.
little hand was raised, and into the sudden
silence voice in which there was deep feeling
went into the hall like a bell.
Ladies and gentlemen, one evening, one fine
evening two years ago, put dynamite beneath

'Coronets' and during the interval sang two

Labor Construction
 Rates Are Slashed
Wages Cut l to 27 Per Cent Below Union Scale in 4S
 Cities in 20 States

New York, June 17-The pay en- velope of the construction worker in the United States is undergoing a shrinking process. Wages currently being padi in 45 cities in 26 states are fro IA to 27 per cent below the scale, according to survey just completed by Engineering News Record. The downward trend in the common labor rate has cut deeply into the union scale so that to-day carpenters receive IT per cent less; bricklayers, 17 per cent; plasterers, 16 per cent; iron workers, IA per cent, and common laborers, 27 per cent less. For the five classes of workers, the straight average is IS per cent below official scale.
 Conditions found in many locali- ties, notably New York, reveal the common practice of wage scale maintenance by the large contract ors, while small contractors cut in, the survey shows. In the Philadel- phia area, union rates hold on all major construction work. Jobs at the regular rates are no more difficult to obtain there than those at cut rates. On big work in Pittsburgh the csale is maintained, but on other contracts wages for skilled labor are 70 cents higher and for common la- Dor, 50 cents higher.
 Reports from Portland, Maine, show the common labor rate to vary from 45 cents, standard, to 38 cents per hour for city street department wages, and 55 cents to 60 cents paid by some contractors. Small contrac- tors in the Boston district are pay ing much below scale. In Connec- ticut, actual wages are 22 per cent below union; common labor, 33 per cent below Small residence build- CTS are employing at their own fig ureS.
 Peoria. Illinois, is a strong union town and no attempt has been made to reduce wages. All local agree ments expiring this year were re- newed at the old scale. Severe cut ting Is also to be found in Birm- ingham, Alabama. The union atti- tude there seems to be to meet open- shop competition by all means com mensurate with the preservation of membership and rules.

on the gallows in Hungary within the past 50 years. The first was Marie Kardos, executed January 13 for murder of her husband and son in connection with the same case. Her lover shouted beside the gall lows as she was hanged.
 Sentence was imposed on Esther Szabv and Christine Chordas June 21 of last year, while Joseph Ma darsz and Laszlo Czabo were sen fenced to life Imprisonment. The sentences were later reviewed by the court of appeals.
 Altogether 34 persons were tried for the murder by poisoning of AZ others, the victims in nearly all cases being husbands, brothers, fathers or mothers of the defend ants. Most of the crimes took place in the two neighboring villages of Nagyrev and Tiszakurt, the poison in at least 20 cases 1t was supplied ing In all cases was by arsenic and by the village midwife, Susie Olah, known as Aunt Susie.''
 Women were primarily responsi- ble in virtually all the cases. The usual motive was desire to get rid of men who had grown obnoxious because of drunkenness, brutality, advancing years or other reasons. Virtually all the peasant borgias" took the view that they had not performed murder because they shed no blood.

Call Him ''Rat" For
 Pleas Of Guilty
tccntinued from Page l)

Among the organizations which congratulated the federal govern ment on its work in gathering evi- dence, on which Capone probably will serve from two to five years in a federal penitentiary, was the Chicago Association of Commerce which said in a statement:
 "The defeat of Capone marks only an early step in Chicago's drive on crime. Resources are available to continue the fight against other 'Capones' until their sway in the midwest is just another page of history. We heartily thank the federal government for its part in this all-important case"
 What federal attorneys promise will mark the definite end of Ca pone's career will occur June 30 when he appears before Judge James H. Wilkerson for sentence.
 At that time he will be meted out Q term of several years "at hard labor" in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth, also. Within month allowing for about two weeks h he may be allowed to straight straighten out his business and personal affairs-he will be on his way to prlSOn.
 The claim of anti-crime cam paigning organizations that no other criminal gang approaching the magnitude of Capone's ever will be built up was borne out by the fact that there is dearth of candidates to succeed him.
 Hymie Levine, vice monger and liquor vendor under "Scarface Ap' for several years, was regarded as the only member of Capone's or- ganizauon still at liberty with enough talent to fill AIS position. The only living predecessor of Ca- pone is Johnny Torrio, and he is reported to have fled to safety in his native Sicily. Six of Capone's lieutenants, including his brother Ralph, already have bene put out of business by the government. The gangs themselves got many others, so that practically none is left.
 Capones' plea of guilty to the
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-06-17

liquor conspiracy charge may work hardship on other members of his gang. Sixty-eight other gangsters also are named in that indictment and the case against them be- | comes stronged with "Scarface Aps' admission of guilty.
 Reports from the underworld were that Capone's reputation as a rat" was being strengthened by the grumblings of his henchmen, many of whom believe it inevitable that they now shall serve prison terms on the conspiracy charge.
 No detail account of the charges akainst Capone was made when he appeared yesterday, but it was un- derstood the enormity of the in- dictments would be brought out upon the gangster's appearance for sentence June 30.
 Included in the indictments were specific charges that Capone earned at least $1,0OO,000 on which he never paid any income tax and that he committed about 5000 acts in violation of the prohibition laws.
 These 5000 acts were connected with his beer business, which was said to have accounted for about $2O0, 100000 of the $700,0O0,00O he was reported to have made during the ten years when he controlled the most powerful gang of law vio- lators in history.

fort is being made to pare the scade, but the bricklayers' union recently cut 10 cents. There is considerable competition, however, among union members long out of work. In Dull uth, Minnesota, the construction out look is discouraging, though reduc- tions are not expected in prevailing rates. In Butte, Montona, common labor is paid 72 cents per hour; 50 cents outside the country. Painters in Casper, Wyoming, are pair SLIP 1-2 cents per hour, as are hodcarri- CTS for bricklayers; hodcarriers for plasterers receive SIPS, though the union rate is SLIP 1-2
 Wage data compiled on other cities by the publication survey shaw that practically all construction in St Louis is done by union workers and the scale is being maintained except, possibly, in the case of car penters. There is no official move nent to reduce wages. In Kansas City, the scale is be ing maintained although there is a surplus of un- employed in all trades, which it is expected the recent $40,000,000 bond issue will absorb in the next 60 to 90 days.
