your smiles for the traffic cop. Spread
the view you get each time you peer
into your vanity.
Universal joints are not, as one deb
surmised, popular road houses, but a
very essential part of the automobile
which every woman ought to know
about. These are located at the ends
of the propeller shaft-the drive line
from the transmission to the rear end
If you will make circle of the thumb
and the first finger of each hand and
loop them together you will have the
general principle of universal joint.
Note that you can move your hands
up and down and sidewise. The joint
thus formed with your fingers is ex-
tremely versatile. This becomes flexi-
bility in the mechanical comparison. If
it were not for the universal joints the
drive line would be seriously strained
in fact, broken, by the various stresses
in going over the road.
Some cars have joints only at the
front of the shaft; others at both ends
Most joints are mechanical in construc-
tion, although the fabric type is also
extensively used. The latter Is similar
to flexible ring.
In slippery weather guard against
parking the car at an angle to a curb
ing that Is lower than the center of the
street. You may have considerable
difficulty in pulling back to the street
again.

Economy in Government is what

the effect that what the motorits had
done was through no fault of his. It
was contended that a policeman, except
in times Of emergency, has not the
authorization to command machine
to be driven around the block at the
mere whim of a policeman. when the
driver has been guilty of no violation
of the regulations whatever. It was
pointed out that If this were permiss-
ible. the power Of judge and jury would
be given the policeman who was met
ing out penalties for what he consid-
cred right. This, it was declared, cer-
tainly should be up to the courts, and
not the arbitrariness of policeman.
Contention Upheld.
Finally, the contention of the motor
lists was upheld. And what was best
for all motorists was done. Orders
were given out instructing all police
men at intersections to be more careful
when changing their signs. In other
words, the policeman should do what
the amber traffic light does-give due
warning.
This discourse may seem about a
trivial matter, but countless motorists
in the District of Columbia have come
up against just such a happening-not
once, but many times
Speaking of warnings, it is certainly
true that no motorist purpoSely drives
the wrong way down a one-way street.
There is nothing to be gained by such
an action. But instead of warning a
befuddled driver, often a policeman will
hand him a ticket Technically. of
course, the motorist is guilty, but in the
majority Of cases, it was due to turn
ing into street before he saw the sign.
After all if is better for the y,oo+oricte
to look cut for vehicles and pedestrians
first before looking for signs.
Maryland Speed Trap.
1t is understood that near Elkridge.
Md, on the Washington Baltimore
speed trap has been in
stalled. Several instances have been re-
ported of strange treatment as a result.
The matter has been reported to the
legal department of the American Au-
tomobile Association, but SO far the
investigation has not been completed.
1t has been claimed that innocent mo-
toristS have been taken before justice
of the peace, convicted and fined with
out a chance to present their side of
the case. If this is so, such a practice
should be Immediately stopped, even if
1T has to be brought to the attention of
the Governor of Maryland.
Speed traps at their best are not good
things, and always some trouble comes
up about them. Regardless of being
right or wrong, the motorist should be
given every opportunity to present his
case. At night it is possible for a DO
hceman or constable to stop the wrong
car. Instances Of this have been re-
ported.

NEW, YORK, Aug. %
W.N.S.).- Prof. R mo n d
Moley, erstwhile dean of the
Roosevelt ''brain trust" :" to-
day denied emphatically that
any rift between the Presi-
dent and himself caused his
resignation to assume the edi-
torship of a new political
weekly in support Of the new
deal, to be published by Vim
cent Astor. He said:
"The report that am resign
ing as Assistant Secretary of
State as the result of a dis
agreement is interesting, but it
doesn't happen to be true"
Vincent Astor, friend of the
President and first Of his family
to enter the publishing field,
nodded in agreement. w. Averell
Hartman, chairman of the board
of the Union Pacific railroad, and
another intimate friend of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, also nodded af-
firmatively. Hartman is asso-
ciated with the new publishing
enterprise.
Planned Move Long Ago
Moley marshalled circumstan-
tial evidence to prove his point
He referred to correspondence
Dver a long period to show that
he had planned just such a move.
He said:
'In March. on the train to
Washington with Mr.. ROOse-
welt, said my official job was
temporary. 1 had the idea of
public service but 1 would
rather do this publishing job
than anything else in the

Sec. Ickes Wins Over Hurja,
Farley's Right-Hand Man

Has Emil Hurja, advocate of a
job for every Democrat and a
Democrat for every job, been won
over by Public Works Admins
traitor Ickes from the ranks of
James A. Farley?
It appears so today, for Hurja,
widely known as Farley's right
hand man in finding jobs for
Democrats, has lined up with Ickes
and sworn allegiance to his
standard of "No Politics in Pub
lie Works"
Saw Open Break
If he has not forsaken Farley,
it looks so. When he was ap-
pointed last week, hordes Of
Democratic jobseekers followed
him over from the R. F. C. They
crowded his office, forced open
his door, and, when it was
locked, battered on the glass.
Observers saw an open break
looming between Farley and
Ickes, for, although Ickes ap-
pointed Hurja administrative as
sistant," he warned he would per-
nit no politics in public works.
Then, with the man conceded to
The Washington times., 1933-08-28

be Farley's most powerful general
in his own camp, Ickes had a talk
with Hurja.
Now With IckeS
Today the line of job hunters
had vanished, the Hurja admits
he stands with Ickes on his non
political, job-dispensing program,
saying:
"The policy of public works
will be to give jobs to the best
qualified persons, regardless of
their political affiliations, al
though, naturally, we don't want
to see a big Republican known
to be at divergence with the
policies of the Administration
holding down an important po-
SitiOn."
Job hunters today are being
sent by Hurja to the Department
of Agriculture. He is swinging his
attention to the setting up of rou-
tine administrative machinery and
public works officials are grinning
to themselves over what they be-
lieve was master stroke by
IckeS.

An official investigation Of the
crash which last night claimed
the life of Capt. E. E. Harmon, Air

today.
Captain Harmon's body was
found some distance from his
wrecked plane on the estate of
George E. Rowland, near Stam-
ford, Conn.
The gasoline tanks we're empty,
and it is believed that Captain
Harmon flew blind in the fog,
looking for a place to land, until
his fuel was exhausted and he
crashed.
It is believed the flier jumped
when his motor cut out, but was
too low for his parachute to open,
Raised in Tuxedo, Md, Captain
Harmon attended Eastern High
School here and was a member of
the football team. He later played
on the varsity at Bethany Col

Stationed at Boiling Field here
for several years, Captain Harmon

UNIONS SEE

NRA Drive Under Way
BY International News Service

A court test by organized
labor on the collective bar
gaining guarantee of the ma
tional industrial recovery act
was freely predicted in labor
circles today as a final show
down was approached on the
union recognition question.
The provision in the automo-
bile code, signed by the Presi-
dent, in which manufacturers re-
serve the right to select, advance,
or discharge workers on a basis
of merit alone, may be the vehicle
for court decision.
NJ COAT Operators Demand
Nonunion coal operators also
were demanding this provision In
a code of fair competition and
o oth er nonunion manufacturers
were joining in the demand.
While labor leaders hold the
language is unimportant, they see
in it a chance for manufacturers
to make their own Interpretation
to block union organizations.
A high labor official announced
that if the provision is used to
halt unionization by the discharge
of union men on the claim Of lack
of merit, labor will go into the
Federal courts to test the labor
guarantees of the law.
Richberg, Lewis Confer
Developments on this issue came
rapidly in the Recovery Admins
tration as campaign opened in
10000 communities to put indus
try and consumers 100 per cent be-
hind the Blue Eagle of the NRA.
Non-union coal operators of the
Appalachian fields, who submitted
a new code in which the question
of union recognition was avoided
d; nd operators demanded the right
to "hire and fire." were called into
conference by Deputy Administra.
tor K. M. Simpson.
At the same time, General
Consel Donald R. Richberg was
conferrlng with President John l..
Lewis, of the United Mine Work

Administrator Hugh S. Johnson
kept in close contact with both
groups. seeking some way of pre-
serving the harmony which mark

Johnson, however, was prepared
to impose a code on the coal in
dustry-and he may do it by to-
orrow morning.
A code drafted by the NRA was

already scored many points in

by expert medical theory.

The prosecution will attempt
to prove that David Lamson's

where the blonde, attractive Sara
Kelley lived, were "breaking her

IN FOREST CAMP
Contingent Sleeps Under
Stars When Tents Ar
rive Late at Night.
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

LURAY, Va, April 18.-The third
contingent of the Civilian Conservation
Corps, consisting of approximately 200
Washington men, arrived at their
camping site in the Massnutten Noun
tains, about 6 miles from Luray, early
last night. The company, commanded
by Capt. Leo Donovan of the 18th In
fantry, arrived ahead of its equipment
and spent the night under the stars
The tents did not arrive until after
midnight.
During the evening a start was made
at clearing about four acres of the
camp site Of thick growth of scrub
pine and q kitchen was set up. This
morning the men were making rapid
progress in setting up tents and other
wise putting the camp in shape. It
will be several days before they can
start on work in the forest.
In spite of their chilly experience
last night, following a firing ride over
almost impossible roads, most of the
men were in good spirits and the few
who complained and threatened to quit
were out of luck with their comrades.
The camp lies in a deep hollow OF
the MasSanutten Mountains on q rain
formed brook known as Passage Creek.
The men are almost completely shut of
from the outside world The site Is
reached only by winding road with
many half-in curves and running along
the edge OF precipices.
