SIMLA, India, Aug Up here in the hill capital" of Indian gov ernment officials are preparing to meet the next phase in Mahatma Gandhi's struggle for his brand Of Indian independence.
 Hopes of peace in this teeming peninsula and of final calling off of the civil disobedience movement fostered by the Indian nationalist congress, were dimmed recently when Gandhi announced his new plan of campaign.
 Individuals Displace Mass
 He said that beginning today, August l, individual disobedience acts would begin, although he him. self would not take part in them without first warning the govern ment of his intention to do SO. Hitherto 1t has been a mass move ment.
 This announcement followed the break down of negotiations for a personal interview between the lit tle nationalist leader and the vice. roy, Lord Willingdon The latter would not receive Gandhi unless the passive resistance campaign were internationally suspended.
 Hopes for brighter development had rested largely upon the con tinued release of political prison CTS. Some 1900 were let go in June.
 Leaders Leave Jails
 Of Is members of the nationalist congress working committee ap- pointed in 1881, nine are free, in cluding Mrs. Sarojini Naidu, the brilliant poetess who at one time headed the organization because all her superiors in the party were in { jail.
 , Of the six leaders still held, two are restricted only to living within certain prescribed areas.
 Jawaharlal Nehru and VaIlabhai Patel are the only two members of outstanding influence still in pris- on. The formers sentence expires in October but it is anticipated that he will be free before that date.
 Nehru recently was visited in Dehra Dun prison by Pandit Mala- viva, who is becoming known as the nationalists' apostle of peace. '" Because of his known wish to see a truce arranged with the govern ment, Malaviya's trip was looked upon as having special significance. But later developments dashed all these hopes.

John I. Preissner, Grand Master Of the Masons of Washington and Alaska, will arrive in Juneau late this afternoon, after being taken off the steamer Yukon by the sea- plane Baranof in Icy Strait.
 MT. Preissner will be present at banquet and meeting of the Ju- neau and Douglas Masonic lodges this evening in the Scottish Rite Temple at T o'clock, and also at later reception which will be given by the Eastern Star for Masons and their wives.
 Former plans to hold the dinner last night were abandoned because the Yukon was late and MT. Preiss- ner was unable to get here. It was feared for a time that the dinner would again have to be postponed. However, the Juneau and Douglas lodges chartered the seaplane to insure his arrival, and everything will be pulled off on schedule.

c. WA. MECHANICS
TO GET UNION PAY
District Commissioners An
nounce Decision Follow
ing Protest.

Beginning today mechanics employed
on civil works projects in the District
will receive the union scale of wages
such as prevailed here on April 80 last,
under decision reached late yesterday
by the Commissioners after receiving
additional instructions from Federal
c. W. A. authorities.
The change in the pay scales will
mean an increase in pay for nearly all
Of abou. 500 mechanics now employed
on projects here under the civil works
employment program. Commissioner
George E. Allen, who has supervision
District, estimated roughly that the
pay increases would result in an in
crease of between $4,000 and $4,000
in the weekly pay roll of the District
c. w. A.
Since the pay roll for the past week,
which will be met Saturday. now is in
the course Of preparation, the pay in
creases will not affect the mechanics
pay on Saturday. but will be effective
in the pay roll a week from Saturday,
covering work done from today through
next Wednesday.
Protest Brings Change.
The change in the pay scale resulted
from vigorous protest filed yesterday
with the Commissioners by a delegation
of officials of the Washington Building
Trades Council, representing organized
labor here. The original instructions
from Federal c. w. A. authorities stated
that the minimum scales should be As
cents an hour for common labor and
$1.10 an hour for skilled workers.
The District, however, had not been
paying more than s1.10 an hour to the
rank and file Of mechanics employed on
District civil works. except in a small
number Of cases Of supervisors. This
brought an official complaint from
organized labor.
Commissioner Allen today received
from DR.. Isador Lubin. commissioner Of
labor statistics, Department of Labor. a
statement Of the union scales of wages
that prevailed here last April 80. These
will be in effect. starting today, he said:
Bricklayers, SITS an hour; carpen-
ters. 81 an hour; cement finishers,
S1.25; electrical workers and structural
iron workers, 81 65; painters and deco
rators, 81 81 an hour; plasterers. Sits;
plumbers, 81 so, and steamfitters, $1.29
Required to Meet Scale.
The instruction received yesterday
from John NJ Csrmody, chief engineer
of the Federal c. w. A., read: Rule
No. 6, c. w. A. rules and regulations,
was intended to enable administrators
to meet wage scale situations where
recognized agreements or understand
ings went in effect as Of April 80, 1888
calling for rates higher than C. w. A.
minimums. This and other rules COW
ering wage scales were lifted by c.
w. A. directly from Public Works Ad-
ministration rules and regulations. 1t
is our understanding that where con-
tracts exist within the District cover
ing works carried on under p. w. A.,

1t is this class of loans which the
Senate Banking Committee has been
investigating recently to determine
whether there had been any abuses
arising out Of the new law permitting
loans to such companies.
The r. F. c. act was amended last
session to permit banks and other in
stitutions which were reluctant to bor-
row directly from the Government be-
cause Of the publicity involved, to or

CHATHAM, Mass, December IA
Richard j. Young" Glendon, Colum-
bia crew coach, whose body was found
today after an all-night search, was a
victim of an accidental gunshot wound,
in the opinion of DR.. c. H. Keene, local
medical examiner.
DR.. Keene said Glendon's body was
found near a fence and the shotgun
he carried might easily have been dis
charged while he was climbing the OBJ
struction. He said he would report the
death as accidental, regardless of a let
ter left by Glendon.
A charge of birdshot lodged in Glen
don's right side and abdomen. The
body was found on the Castle Cove
road, about a quarter Of mile from
the beach.
Glendon was about 40 years old and

poor. Even those who used to have
money-and brains-loSt, in recent
years almost everything they had and
are compelled to live today on what
the Government is paying them.
This is the case of Francis White and
Hugh Wilson, to mention two Of the
best known American diplomats abroad.
Francis White wrote a pathetic letter
to one of his friends in Washington
some time ago, explaining that, although
he was disappointed not to obtain a
post in Latin America, a continent he
knows best, he intended to stick it out
in Europe, since he had spent all Of his
life in the diplomatic service. But
when he realized he could not stay on
in Prague without going heavily In debt,
he reluctantly decided to get out OF
the service.
What worries the State Department
most is the fact that, unless Congress
decides to do something for the For
eign Service, the best men who have no
private means will be compelled to re-
sign, and the department will once more
be forced to accept in the service only
the type of meH who have private
means and want to 60 abroad merely
with the object Of hobnobbing with roy
atty and celebrities, but otherwise are
totally unqualified for the work they
are supposed to do.

Delegate Told by Secretary Ickes Action to Release
 Money Imminent

WASHINGTON, July 29.(-Spec- ial correspondence Assurances were received by Delegate Dimone that in the immediate future Sec retary Ickes will take the actior necessary to release and make i'm mediately available the funds al. ready allocated for public works projects in Alaska
 The papers are now on his desk for inspection and signature. Once he has given them final approv- al construction work to alley. fate unemployment and provide much needed projects can get un- derway at once.
 Alaskans who regret that the funds were not released immed- lately after passage of the Ma tional Recovery Act so that full advantage could be taken of tht short season can count the Dele gate among them.
 Ever since the adjournment oi Congress he has urged that argu- ment on every possible occasion.
 But those who think the Terri tory has been unfairly discrim- mated against should reminc themselves of these facts:
 1. There have been several shifts in organization of the Public Works Administration. Only re- gently was it finally decided that Secretary Ickes should take com plete charge. Organization is not yet perfected. This has naturally acted as a brake on speedy dls- tribution of funds.
 2. It appears that Alaskans will receive it's preliminary allocation of funds just as soon as any oth- CT political ub-division.
 3. The above statement does not refer to money made available under the Federal Highway aid plan. Congress determined the amount to be spent in that man. ner and the Public Works Admin istration is without authority to lessen the apportionment to any state. Even so, not all the states have received funds to start road building under this provision ol MIRA. Alaska does not come with in the provisions of the Federal Highway Aid Act and the fact that allocations for roads were speedily made to the States and Hawaii may have created the in- correct impression that Alaska was forgotten.
