FURTHER DELAY.
MAY END HOPE
FOR INCREASE
Officials Say Now or Never
Is Fate Of Wage Increase
Bill; House Act Seen Fatal

Federal workers will be at a dis
tinct strategic disadvantage if
they fail to obtain their salary in
creases under the WEIGH act be-
fore Congress adjourns on March
4, officials forecast today.
If they do not obtain these in
creases now, it is doubtful whether
they will ever obtain them, Off
eials said.
This pessinistic touch to the
Federal pay situation is the result
Of new situation which has de
veloped. It is caused primarily by
the plan to have Congress next
December pass entirely new classi-
fication and salary legislation.
Blow At Welch Act
The decision of the House Ap-
preparations Committee to. cut
cut the increases in the coming
fiscal year is only forerunner
to a decision, to be shown clearly
at a later date, to cut out the in
creases permanently on the basis
outlined in the Welch act, it was
said.
Whether Congress will agree to
this program next December is an
open question. At present the
Federal workers still have the
support of the Senate in their
fight FOR the increases, although
the House stands adamant. In
not single one of the appropria.
ton bills has the issue been def
nitely settled, although it appears
now that the Senate ultimately
will make at least partial sur
render on the issue.
Fight To Continue
The fight for the increases will
be continued in the next Con-
gress even though it fails at pres,
ent, leaders of the employees made
clear today. But this fight will
run counter to new personnel leg.
1slation which is now proposed,
and apparently with Administra-
tion backing. The House and
Senate Civil Service Committee
may begin consideration of it
before the present session closes.

M0YLE, ALLEN ESCORTED AIRPORT BY s PLANES;
 M0YLE FACING CHARGE

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12. (P)-Don Moyle and Cecil Allen, trans-Pa- cific aviators who were lost in the vast expanse of the Pacific and then found again on an island near Siberia, landed at Grand Temple airport, near here, Sunday.
 Six Army ships escorted them to landing. Moyle and Allen were presented with a consolation prize of $2500. Moyle will appear Tues day in court to an old drunken driving charge.
 Editors Note - Moyle explained to the Fairbanks News Miner that he was not drunk on the occasion cited. He was merely rounding 3 corner on a wet, slippery road, when a tire blew out and he drove into a parked car. It happened that the only woman judge in Los An geles had just gotten out of the parked car and as result he was cited to appear in court. Moyle plead guilty 50 as not to delay their getting started on the trans Pacific hop. If he had plead not guilty, it might have been neceS- sary to postpone the hop until next year.

PACIFIC COAST TITLE
 FLIES AS J. IF OREGON
 DOWNS HUSKY SQUAD

SEATTLE, Oct. 12. (P) On the wings of a dazzling 87-yard non- stop flight down the Washington stadium went Washington's hopes for a Pacific Coast Championship when Bill Bowerman, substitute Oregon end landed safely behind the Husky goal line to give Oregon the victory in the dying minutes of play when Washington was driving like mad under the shadow of Ore- gon's goal line and turned a possl- ole tie into clean victory; score, Oregon 13, Washington 0.
 Both of Oregon's scores came in -ae last period The first on a cne-foot line buck by Lillard, negro halfback, who, after ground-gain- ing bucks and an end pass, put the ball into scoring position.
 Then Washington drove to a scoring position and Hufford passed on the third down and the ball sailed into Bowerman's arms who eore straight down the Sidelines for a score.
 The other three periods saw both saams in scoring positions but in -ercepted passes stopped most of them. Otherwise Washington had the advantage of those periods.

EVERETT PULLMAN HAS MARROW ESCAPE FROM
 DEATH IN 200 IT. FALL

Escaping death Saturday by only a miracle, Everett Tillman, who left on Fridays train to ac- company Mel Horner to his min ing property on Lake Kenai, was brought into town Saturday even ing suffering from Injuries sus- tained in a fall of about 200 feet on the face of the steep mountain side on which the Horner mine is located
 Details of the accident are quite meager According to Mel Horn CT, who was in stope inside the portal of the mine gathering ore specimens, just at the time of the accidents occurance, he heard what sounded like rock or snow slide. A little later he hearu a voice calling for aid. Dropping all work, MT. Horner rushed out and found Tillman in a very bad condition and he started at once to take Tillman to his cabin. The cabin is located short distance from the mine, and here he rem dered first aid.
 MT. Horner then took Tillman down to the lake where boat was secured to take the injured man to Mile IS to connect with an automobile which brought them into Seward to the Seward General Hospital where the wounds were given medical at tention. The arrival at the hos pital was none too soon for traces of blood poisoning had already set in. The injuries were confin- ed chiefly to the hands and severe gashes on the knee. It is not known whether the knee cap is shattered. An X-ray was to be taken to determine this.
 It is thought that Tillman, who was doing some work above the mine entrance, slipped on the newly fallen snow and' plunged down the hillside. Had he fallen a few feet more he would have been precipitated into space and a sheer drop of about 300 feet, to certain death.

Took $5 On Promise
 To Find Job For
 Pratt Street Man
Then Led Him on Run-Around Through Buckingham
 Building Client Pasquale Ciasullo Enlsts Aid of Policeman and Joe Santo of New York, Is Arrested

| and turned 1t over to Santo. He then demanded that Santo produce. The New York agent escorted the local man to the Buckingham building and attempted to give him the slip by running out of the place. Ciasullo ran after him, but for a minute lost all trace of him. With the aid of Traffic Officer Barney Burns, Santo was located in the doorway of the
 West Side Savings bank and was placed under arrest.
 Ciasullo told his story in court to- day with the result that Santo was given a jail sentence. The latter had nothing to offer in a line of an ex- planation, except the statement that if given sufficient time he would
 have tried to find work for Cia-
 sulio.
 "A nolle was entered in the case of
 John Statlkus, AZ, of 165 Drayer
 avenue, who was charged with ob-
 taining money under false pretense,
 also. Staalkus' scheme differed con-
 siderably from Santos. After selling
 a mortgage to the J. E. Smith com-
 pany Staltkus collected $139 on it
 from his former tenant, Anthony
 Zukauskas of 233 Alder street. As restitution had been made in the case, a nolle was recommended and approved.
 Adam Folkman,s 35, of Al South Leonard street was the third de- fendant of the morning session on the charge of obtaining money and
 goods under false pretenses.
 The accused is alleged to have pur-
 chased some furniture from George
 Lasky, a Brooklyn business man. The purchase included a radio and some
 records for talking machine. He
 gave check for $60 requesting that the initial payment of $40 be de-
 ducted. Lasky returned $20 to him
 as change. Later the check came
 back with the notation that it was
 worthless. As Folkman failed to make good a warrant was issued for | his arrest. The case was continued l today until February IS.
 A months truce was ordered in
 the case of Isabelle Delagallo, col | ored, of 217 Abbott avenue. She was accused of striking neighbor's child. There was also evidence of a long feud existing among some of the residents of that immediate neighborhood.
