Ruth Stewart, of st. Louis, and
Mrs. Debbie Stanford, of To

fuselage of their South Ameri-

Both apparently had met in,
slant death when the plane,

spiralled to earth-the result of
engine trouble or lack of IA

No FURTHER
ACTION IS
LIKELY
Rep. Rich Wanted 10 Per Cent
of All Salaries, Otherwise
He Would Oppose Move

-Four bills proposing reduc-
tion of Federal salaries were
tabled by the House Commit
tee on Expenditures in Execu-
tive Departments and probably
will die in committee without
further action.
The committee voted to table
the bill in executive session after
an open hearing at which mem
berS of Congress who introduced
the pay cut bills were called upon
to testify.
Wanted All Cut
Representative Robert F. Rich
(R0, Pennsylvania. testified re-
garding his bill calling for a re
duction of 10 per cent. He said
that unless reductions included
all salaries of congressman and
other Government officials. he
would not favor any pay cuts.
A saving. of $165. 100000 would
be made under the provisions
of his bill. Rich said. He ad-
mitted his bill was not in &C
cordanee with the Administra-
tion,s policy of maintaining pres.
ent wage levels.
IL Ha.l Sliding Scales
" Representative Milton C. CARRIER
(R), Oklahoma, author of one
bill, was not present, and his
measure was discussed by Repre-
sentative Ashton C. Shallenberger
CD, Nebraska, who had intro
duced a similar bill CARRIERS and
Shallenberger's bills advocate a
sliding scale of reductions rang
ing from Is per cent on incomes
over $2,500 to Is per cent of in
comes over $4,000.
Representative Charles Nc
Gugin (RD Kansas, author of one
of the reduction bills, said the
gross wage check of the United
States has been reduced 49 per
cent in all industries and 1t was
unfair to expect people in private
industry to pay taxes to MAINTAIN
the present salary level.
"Set Bad Precedent"
Members of the committee, in
Guiding Representative John j.
Cochran, chairman, declared they
believed a reduction of Federal
salaries would set bad precedent
and that salary cuts would work
a general hardship.
The bills for reduction, because
of the committees action this
morning, probably will not come
to the surface again, and future
action toward pay cuts is not eX-
pected to carry weight.

FORU.S.
WORK
Father Cox and Aides Call at
White House, Hear Mes
sage From President

A tatterdemalion but smil-
ing army, pinched by economic
forces beyond their control,
today shuffled to the Capitol
to pray for governmental re-
lief.
Led by a cheerful, rotund
priest, the group of $4,000 job
less men of Pittsburgh and
other Pennsylvania towns
pledged their allegiance to the
country while urging Congress
to appropriate $5,OOO,O 100000
to give work to them and the
millions of others in want.
Periodically waving the Stars
and Stripes and singing the songs
which ten years ago they and
their comrades sang on the battle
fields of France, the motley crowd
saw it's petitions for aid pre-
sented to members of the Senate
and House, who a few minutes
later formally placed the prayers
in the archives of Congress.
Visit Soldier Shrine
Their mission to the Capitol
ended, the army went to eat
lunch while their leaders jour-
neyed to the White House and
handed the same petition to
President Hoover.
The visit to the White House
concluded, the, army, well fed,
then went out to Arlington Gene
terry, to pay tribute at the Tomb
of the Unknown Soldier, en-
phasizing the spirit and feelings
of the crowd.
The march of the thousands
upon the Capitol started from
their improvised camping grounds
on Maryland Avenue.
All morning the men had been
furnishing up their tattered gar.
ments and putting themselves in
shape for the climax Of their
powerful protest against condi"
tionS.
Start With a Song
The hardships which they had
undergone on the cold and diff
cult trip over the mountains were
apparent as the army got under
way.
Father James R. Cox, the
Roman Catholic priest, who bears
the sobriquet Mayor of Shanty-
town." took on the aspect of a
shepherd as he gathered his flock
about him for the short parade to
the Capitol.
Singing Pack Up Your Trou.
bles in Your Old Kit Bag and
Smile. Smile, Smile" the men fell
into line behind the clergyman.
Cheers for Father Cox, and for
the Government punctuated the
wartime melodies as the men
wound through the driveways Of
the Capitol Grounds.
No Marring Note

historic old pile poured the army.

IRONY SEEN IN
 MORROW'S AID
 FOR CRIMINALS

HO9FWELL, N. J., June 15.- A dagger of bitter irony is twisting in the hearts of the family of the late Dwight w. Morrow, grand father of the murdered Lindbergh baby
 It was Morrow, one of New Jerseys foremost citizens, who led a movement winch abolished in- humanities in the state penal in- situtions and bettered living con- ditions for all incarcerated crim- inalS.
 Worked Fer Reform
 It was the criminal class which Morrow songht to "civilize" through humane treatment that struck back at him after death through the savage kidnapping-m murder Of his infant grandson.
 Morrow it was who led the fight for abolition of the prison shave haircut" the dalk and tomblike dungeons; the striped uni forms; and many another feature of the states old prison system.
 Treated Like Humans
 Conviets were treated as human beings as 8 result of Morrow's ef- forts. Food was improved, Incen- tives to learn a trade were given. Visit and mail privileges were es- abolished
 Fortunately for Morrow he died before the ironic boomerang from the criminal element he sought to aid, struck at his infant grand son, kidnapped and fiendishly mur- dered.

 She told Superior Court Judge Harry B. Miller, through her law yer, Emmett Byrne, that she had bought 6 wardrobe, obtained her passport, and then:
 Three weeks after we married, August 23, 1929, he told me the trip was mainly business, anyhow. so he'd take the honeymoon alone.

 Everything had gone wrong at the field that afternoon. The de- crepit biplane in which Jerry took ventureSome passengers into the air at a dollar a minute had, like the traditional one horse shay, gone to pieces all at once. The engine missed on one entire bank .jof cylinders. The control wires leading to the flippers developed frayed spots. The oil pump ceased to function.
 So, with this and that, it was well after midnight before Jerry and his helper succeeded in get ting the plane in fit condition to stagger into the air the following morning. Then, every bone and muscle aching with weariness, the pilot cranked up his twelve-year- old roadster, richoted out of the field gate and, cut-out wide open, hurled across Long Island toward New York twenty miles away.
