NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-IS a
woman whose name has figured
in two murders a proper guardian
for child?
Mrs. Florence Palmer Flynn,
the woman in the case, answered
the question with an emphatic
affirmative yesterday as she pre-
pared to fight for the custody of
Jackie, her 11-year-old son. The
children's court in Brooklyn will
decide the issue tomorrow.
Mrs. Flynn, whom the police
call "Three-Fingered Flo," was
seized by police after the killing
of her husband, Silent Lester"
Flynn, last month. She was dis
charged in the magistrates court
for lack of evidence.
The Flynn killing dove-tailed
into the murder of James Dolan,
who was slain soon after Mrs.
Legs Diamond, whom he guarded,
was shot to death. Mrs. Flynn

UNION DEMANDS
+ NRA ENFORCE
COAL PACT
BY International News Service

The NRA was called upon to-
day by John L. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers of
America, to force formal &C.
ceptance of an informal agree
ment on unionization reached be-
tween the bituminouS operators
and miners last week.
The code committee of the
Appalachian coal operators and
union heads were called into
conference with Recovery Ad-
ministrator Hugh S. Johnson as
Lewis asserted the operators were
trying to break their agreement.
Seek Open-ShOp Clause
Despite the decision of the
operators to deal with the union,
Lewis said, they still are pursu-
ing their efforts to include a
so-called open-shop declaration in
the coal code.
Lewis said:
ct is up to the NRA to re-
Quire them to carry out the
agreement"
AS the blCumlnOuS QueSClOn was
taken up, the proposed code for
the anthracite industry was laid
before NRA officials.
The code was presented to
Deputy Administrator K. M.
Simpson and his associates by
w. w. Inglis, president of the
Glen Alden Coal Company, of
Scranton, Pa, and Albert Jessup,
vice president of the G. B.
Markle Company, of Hazelton,
Pa. Both are members of the
code committee of the Anthra-
cite Operators Association.
Restricted Output Planned
While details of the code were
withheld, it was understood that
an elaborate plan to assure fair
competition in the industry and
restrict production to the market
demand are included.
NRA officials indicated a be-
lief that the wage question will
cause little difficulty, because
the entire field is unionized.
Equalization of work appeared
TO be the major obstacle. With
unemployment serious in the
anthracite regions, United Mine
Workers officials were expected
to bid for the 30-hour week.

The StrengS' accused him Of be-

unappreciative, and lazy.
Peter made no secret Of his re-

He denied Mrs. StrengS' state
