MEXICAN ACCENT
GIVES OFFICERS
BIT OF TROUBLE

What a Mexican accent can do
to a telephone conversation was
fully demonstrated last night when
the sheriffs office, the district at
torneys office and the county am
bulance were sent in all haste to
ranch house 10 miles northeast Of
Brawley, only to find a woman
sleeping in a haystack.
Clayburn Poole, night jailer at
the county Jail, was on duty when
Brawley police telephoned to say .
woman had been murdered north
east of there, her head shot off.
The Brawley officers got their in
formation from a Mexican who
lives on the ranch where it hap
pened, they said.
Poole Immediately called Harold
Gillett, Investigator for the sheriff's
office. Gillett, in turn, called Tom
Sharp, his fellow investigator who
works out of the district attorneys
office Preparing for whatever
might happen, the two telephoned

was not home, but was finally To-
Gated at the football game by means
of the public address system.
In the meantime Poole had sum-
moned the county ambulance, on
the chance the woman was not yet
/ dead.
Arrived at the spot of the sup
posed killing, the officers question
ed the Mexican who had telephoned
Brawley police.
He was surprised to learn a wom-
an had been killed. All he said, ex-
planned the Mexican, was that a
woman had stopped at his place,
and that she didn't seem ito have
any senses" He had explained
over the telephone the woman was
queer in the head, the Mexican
said.
The woman was located in a hay
stack, sound asleep. She seemed
perfectly rational. and the ambu-
lance, officers and reporter returned
to Ell Centro, blessing profoundly

Contractors Want
 Bill Amended
Claim Davis-BacOn Measure
 Not Workable

Washington, D. C., Feb 11-Con- tending that pending emergency leg f islation to guarantee that labor em-
 ployed on the construction of Fed eral government buildings shall re-
 ceive the rate of wage prevailing in the locality where the building is
 being erected would inevitably result
 in uncertainties, dispttes and an un-
 necessary waste ok public money
 the Associated General Contractor o1
 America today are urgently request
 ing President Hoover to intercede
 with house and senate leaders to
 amend t.e Davis-Bacon bill so as l to make the purposes of the legisla- ton worka ble, practical and equit- able.
 In a letter delivered to the Presi- dent today A. P. Greensfelder, presi- dent of the association, quoted from a resolution passed at the annual convention of the Associated Gen. eral Contractors of America Janu-
 ary 29, at San Francisco. that Tt IS contrary to the best interests for a public body to award a contract to a contractor whose bid is predicted upon the exploitation of labor by either excessive working hours Of
 reduced wages" but asserted that there are certain glaring fundamen- tai weaknesses in the pending bills (S 5904 and H. R. 16619) which would endanger their operation in the best interests of the public.
 The legislation, which has the un- r qualified support of organized labor and is understood to be an admin istration measure, provides that all contracts in excess of $5,000 for the construction. alteration or repair of public buildings, to which the Unit
 ed States CT the District of Columbia
 is @ party, shall contain provision that the rate of wages for all la
 borers and mechanics employed by the contractor or any subcontractcr on the public buildings shall not be
 less than the prevailing rate Of wages for work of similar nature in the city, town, village or other civil division in which the building is located. It further provides that in case any dispute arises as to what are the prevailing rates of wages, which can not be adjusted by the contracting officer, the Secretary of
 Labor shall have final determination.
 MT Greensfelder's letter to Presi, dent Hoover. in which he pointed out the uncertainties of the pending bills. read in part as follows:
 "Favoring the principle that gov- ernment contractors and sub-con- tractors should be required to pay the local prevailing rate of wages. this association most strenuously ob- jects to s. 5904 and H. R. 16619, which would throw the entire con- tracting industry-insofar as it is engaged in the construction of gov ernment buildings - into confus- ion: would largely increase the ex- pense to the taxpayers of the coun- try of necessary public buildings; and would lead to endless dissatis- faction and bickerings between con- tractors and the contracting off cers; between labor and both the contractors and contracting officers; and would not insure to labor what the proponents of the bills seem to think that labor should receive"

to Gertrude Gottlieb of Waterbury in June of 1927 and went to live with Mrs Gottlieb's mother in New York. Ruth Audrey was born on June l. 1928 and her mother died on April IA, 1929. The child was cared for by it's grandmother, Mrs Gottlieb, and the child's aunt, Mrs Don of Waterbury. Mrs Don brought the child, eventually, to Waterbury where she now resides with the Don family.
 Joel has since remarried and asks the court to give him the custody of the child on the grounds that he feels he has a better home and because the child will receive as good care as she now receives in Waterbury.
 In the special defense, the re- spondents claim Joel paid nothing for the medical expense of the child's mother and contributed noth- ing toward burial expenses. The respondents further allege the peti- tioner is practically a stranger to the child and resides a long distance from Waterbury. The respondents alleged they have performed parental offices to the child and have become endeared to it. On these grounds they ask that the habeas corpus writ be denied. Judge Miles F. Mo- Mfr is sitting on the case.

rapidity with which it disposed of the cash proposals to-day.
 It was learned authoritatively after the meeting to-day that the committee will report out bill probably tomorrow, similar to the Bacharach measure, which, in addi- tion to increasing the loan limit to 50 per cent, also will provide for re- duction of interest on loans from 6 to per cent
 Republican leaders, it was learned also, are planning to bring up the measure Monday under 8 suspension of the rules and pass it that day There is not expected to be much opposition to this procedure, how ever, since republicans and demo- crats generally are united to act upon a compromise bill.
 The plan proposed by Rep Fish | republican, N. Y., would allow vet l erans the option of taking 25 pel value of the certificate now, the re. mainder to be left to his account The committee estimated to-day this plan would cost $85O,OOO,00O if all took advantage of it, the lowest of any proposals before it.
 Bacharach, republican, N. J., to in- crease the loan value from 22 1-2 to 50 per cent. it was figured, would cost $1,697,750,O0O if all veterans borrowed money under it.
 The committee twice voted down. IT to 5, the Patman bill for full cash payment. This would cost $3,40O,- 100000.
 It then voted down, 13 to 10 the plan sponsored by Democratic Floor Leader Garner, ranking min- ority member of the committee, to pay veterans the present face value Of their certificates, plus 25 per cent, plus 4 per cent compound interest. This, the committee estimated, would entail expenditure of $2,106.- 25O,O00.
 The last proposal defeated to-day was to pay the present face value: less 1-2 per cent, which would have cost $1,728,779,30S if all vet erans took it. The vote on this pro- posal likewise was 13 to 10.
 While the vote was not made pub lie, it was understood that all dem- ocrats present and Representative Frear, republican, Wis, supported the last two proposals.
