INDIANAPOLIS, July s.-Two In
dianapolis women were injured and
burned seriously this afternoon when
they leaped from their burning air
plane, which had landed in high ten
sion wires northwest of the city.
The plane remained lodged in the
wires, and when the women jumped
they lit in burning gasoline on the
ground. They are Mrs. Lenore Harper
owner and pilot, and Mrs. Hazel Frinke
The airplane barely missed a filing
station nearby.
The operator of the station said he
heard the plane approaching from the
east, flying low. He said Mrs Harper
apparently realized she was flying too
low to clear the wires and "gunned'
the ship, but it failed to rise. 1t burst
into flames as 1t struck the wires and
the women jumped.

President Roosevelt put his pub
lie works machine in shape yes
terday with the appointment OF
his Secretary of Interior, Harold
L. Ickes, as administrator OF the
,3OO,OOO,OOO work revival pro-
gram.
In naming the Secretary of In
terror to this post, Mr.. Roosevelt
ended a dispute between factions
as to the method of carrying out
the program.
Ickes as a member of the official
family of the President, is ex-
pected to have almost unlimited
authority and he is understood to
favor an immediate start on the
campaign to make jobs.
Early announcement of a num-
ber of projects to be undertaken
at once was expected. Ickes and
L. w. Robert, Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury in charge of pub
lie works, conferred yesterday
with the President.
Roosevelt Turns to Codes.
Last night Mr.. Roosevelt gave his
attention to another phase of the do
mestlc situation-the establishment OF
industrial codes to govern production,
hours
mum wages.
He was described as disturbed by an
excess of production in advance Of the
establishment of these codes and with
out a compensatlng increase in en-
ployment.
Ee took with him aboard the Sequoia
for an overnight ride down the Poto-
mac River Attorney General Cummings.
In the original plans for setting up
the public works administration, the
President had in mind the appointment
of Col George Spalding to direct the
activities.
A change of plans, however, brought
Col. Donald H. Sawyer into the post
as temporary administrator Differ
ences Of opinion over the method OF
carrying out the project arose and the
designation of Ickes yesterday was re-
garded as settling these.
Originally, the President had been
urged to set up administrators in each
State to direct the public works activl-
ties in that State. Ickes leaned toward
regional administrators with advisory
boards in each State. His plan has
been put before the President.
Sawyer to Be Retained.
Col. Sawyer is to be retained in an
executive capacity under the cablnet
advisory board because OF his long eXpe-
rience with public construction. what
his new title will be was not made
known
Although Ickes has not stated his
views formally on the suggestion by
Lewis Douglas, director of the budget
that the public works program be cur
tailed. his associates said he is an ad-
vocate of going forward with the full
program. at least for the present.
On the other hand, they said, 1ckes
supports Douglas contention that ad-
vances should be made only to States
and municipalities which have balanced
their budgets or are working IN That
direction.
This theory that Federal funds should
be advanced only to local governmental
units which are financially responsible
is understood to have virtually unani-
nous support from the cabinet board
in charge of the public construction
program which Ickes heads.
There is little support among board
members at the present time, however,
for suggestions that the program be
curtailed.
The cabinet board in charge of the
construction fund met during the day
