Heurich
Blaze

The Chris Heurich brewery,
with thousands of gallons OF
beer aging in its vats, was i'm
periled by fire that started in
it's boiler room shortly after
noon today.
Three alarms were turned in
before firemen brought the blaze
under control, using a new chem
ical foam to quench the flames.
Used Only Twice
Only the use of this chemical,
the second time it has been
used here, prevented the flames
from sprading to other parts OF
the huge plant, firemen said.
The fire started under one OF
the boilers, and is believed to
have been caused by a spark
from a torch workmen were using
above the boiler.

oil blazing beneath the boiler, he
turned in an alarm.
..... Two More Alarms
BY t3re time the first companies
responded huge clouds Of thick
smoke were pouring from the
building and two more alarms
were turned in.
Damage was confined to the loss
of the one boiler. This will not

smoke, being in another part Of

CODE DRAWN
=. BY JOHNSON
FOR COAL
Drastic, Rapid Action Planned
/, To Put Whole Industry
+ Under Blue Eagle
BY international News Service

Drastic steps to bring the
bituminous coal industry under
the NRA were decided upon by
Recovery Administrator Hugh
S. johnson today.
A coal code, written by the Re
covery Administration, will be
placed before leaders of the coal
industry this afternoon with a
notice that the code will be recon-
mended to President Roosevelt.
NRA officials said johnson
would follow the course on the
coal code he followed on the oil
code, when he gave the oil
operators less than "a hours to
file their objections to the code.
Whole Industry Covered "
The NRA code is designed to
cover the entire bituminous coal
industry, it was stated. The sin
gle code would replace the many
sectional codes presented by diff
ferent coal associations.
Conferences were still to be held
with leaders of the steel industry,
with indications that the NRA
would write code for that indus
try also unless an agreement is
reached.
The power of the Federal Gov
ernment to license industry will
be used only when the time and
occasion arises" General Johnson
said today.
Avoids Drastic Power"
The Administration, he said, has
no immediate intention of using
this drastic power to force indus
try into codes. He added:
"I'm not going to invoke any
penal provisions or licenses un-
til l have to. We are long
way from that. We are pro-
ceeding on the theory industry
will govern itself. The licensing
provision is only to discipline
recalcitrantS in industry and
will be used when the time and
occasion arises"
A demand for a 30-hour average
week and a 60-cent-an-hour mini
mum wage, even for apprentices
in production, was demanded to
day by William Green, President
Of the A. F.. of L., at the hearing
on the automobile industry code
Green announced he was pro

CODES To MAKE
CONV|CTS IDLE

While the National Recovery
Administration fails to act on a
c. = proposed by prison officials
to protect convict labor, indus
trial codes are being drafted
which eventually, if adopted, will
throw all convictS into idleneSs,
1t was revealed today by the Fed
eral Prison Bureau.
Industrial leaders, fearful of
competition as the result of con-
vict-made products being placed
on the open market, are insert
ing articles in their codes which
would boycott these products.
These provisions would nullify
the code proposed by the Amer
ican Prison Association and the
Osborne Association two months
ago, which provides that
every organized industry
operating under a code shall
make adequate provision for
furnishing employment OppOr-
tunitieS to men and women in
prisons, in the same proportion
that the number of workers
in industry bears to the total
number Of persons gainfully
employed in the industry"
Numerous industrial codes have
been proposed in which it is
stipulated that articles manu-
factured in prisons, prison camps,
or reformatories shall not be
e0ld on the open market.

Tie for Funeral Rites

Kneeling by the casket of
the woman police say he
brutally murdered, John G.
Mulligan wept and made the
sign of the cross as they
buried Ella Schrodt today.
Mulligan, collector for a Wash
ington jewelry store, was brought
to the funeral parlors under a
heavy police guard.
Wearing a blue shirt, white
trousers, and a black tie, Mulligan
entered the Gasch funeral chapel
on the arm of his sister, Mrs.
Eta Neukirk, of Baltimore.
Leaving the jail to attend the
last rites for the woman, Multi
! gan asked police If he could be
permitted TO- St0p at.,a store and
purchase Eblack IfeCkt1e to wear.
He was given this permission and
purchased q black bow.
Kneels and SObs
In the dimly lit chapel was the
casket with all that is mortal
of the woman he had loved; his
common law wife.
On the caSket was a beautiful
wreath, a wreath he had ordered
from his jail cell to deck the
casket.
He glanced down at the pale
face of the slain woman, then
dropped to his knees. Tears
welled into his eyes, and there
were sobs heard in the chapel.
After a moment in prayer, he
arose and took his seat and to
the swelling Of organ music the
solemn last service for the dead
was read by the Rev. George c.
Oliver, a Methodist clergyman.
A Brief Service
There are only a few friends
and neighbors of the slain
woman in the chapel as the
brief service was intoned by the
clergyman. Outside a few curl
osity seekers stood to glimpse
the man accused of killing his
common law wife following a
drinking party in their Brent
wood home last Tuesday night.
When the service was over
Mulligan arose with bowed head,
cast one final glimpse at the
woman he had loved, and left
the chapel with his police eS-

Wallace Bares
Program for
Hog Curb

CHICAGO, Aug. 1s dN.S0.
A plan to reduce hog tonnage
during the 1933-34 marketing
season by 100000 pounds live
weight was announced in detail
at a Century of Progress COLISEUM
today by Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace.
The plan involves governmental
purchase Of 100000 sows, soon
to farrow, together with 100000
pigs ranging in weight from 25
up to 100 pounds.
They will be slaughtered under
contract between the Adjustment
Administration and the packing
houses. A major part of the meat
will be turned over to Henry l..
Hopkins, Federal Relief Admins
traitor, for distribution to the
poor.
A processing tax on live hogs
and hog products, effective about
October /, will be levied to raise
the $55,OO0,000 needed for the
program. Wallace said:
"A tax Of considerably less
than a cent a pound would ac-
cOmpliSh this purpose, but it
is impossible at the moment to
state the figure with any exact
nenSS.
'eIt is necessary that the pro-
gram go into effect at once.
1 hope we can announce its
Inauguration in a few days.
By October I, the goal should
be reached"

PROBE
Senator Says Advances Were
Illegal; Officers of Institu-

DETROIT, Aug. 18 (I.N.S.).
The United States Treasury
Department "acted illegally"
for months following the mar
ket crash in allowing strong
banks to keep insolvent ones
open, Senator James Couzens
charged today.
Couzens resumed his testimony
before Judge Harry B. Keidan'
who, as a one-man grand jury.
is investigating the Detroit Bank
collapse that started the national
bank crisis of last March.
Names Mellon and Mills
He named former Secretary Of
the Treasury Mellon and Under
secretary ogden Mills as re.
sponsible for the alleged "illegal
action"
Couzens said:
"AII during the years Of the
depression following the collapse
while the Administration was in
the hands of my good friends
Mr.. Mellon and Mr.. Mills, they
made use of purely discretion
ary policy in dealing with Shaky
banks. And all the time they
were violating the law.
Senator Carter Glass, during
the hearings of the SubcOmmit-
tee formed to draft his banking
measure, was outraged and con-
tinually complaining over this
policy. Last May 10 he read into
the Congressional Record the
following"
Glass Statement Read
The Senator then read to the
grand jury the statement of SEN
ator Glass declaring that test1.
mony before the Senate subcom-
mittee showed that if the law
were literally enforced, the Gov
ernment would have to close half
the banks of the country. In the
statement Senator Glass declared
the Comptroller's department. had
acted illicitly and almost paralyzed
"the entire business community
of the nation"
It was this discretionary" pol"
icy toward shaky banks, Senator
Couzens said, that prompted the
Government to refrain from TAX
ing action which would have
closed the two Detroit national
banks long before the crash came.
Illegal Loans Charged
These banks had loaned mil
lions of dollars with their own
stock as security, he charged, "in
violation of the law"
The Government, he said, knew
Of these alleged illegal loans, and
might have ordered them written
off. But this, he said, would have
resulted in immediate closing OF
the banks and sometimes the
Government decides it is better
to carry such banks along in the
hope that the situation will clear
up"

bluntness, assumed national in

Lower Prices Make
 Chicken Desirable
Meat is Lighter and Pleasing to the Spring Appetite

For the housewife with an eye to economy as well as variety, this is the time of the year to include chicken regularly in the weeks menus. The meat is lighter than lamb, beef or pork and for that reason more pleasing to the spring appetite and the abundance of the fowls on the market at present put them within reach of everyone.
 The inexperienced shopper is apt to think only of the broilers, which is a mistake, as the older fowls and roasting chickens can be made up into any number of delicious dishes. Use broilers by all means for your chicken Maryland or sim liar entrees but take advantage of all of the succulent qualities of the older chickens for your other dish es. They have more meat, often more flavor and if cooked properly they can be as tender as the young ones. After you've had them roast ed or baker for a meal there may still be enough meat left to form the base of creamed or scalloped dish.
 Creamed chicken Holland is per- feet for a luncheon party and the ideal entree for a dinner starting with cold or jellied soup and end- ing with frozen dessert. Serve new potatoes with parsley and but ter sauce with it and one other vegetable, perhaps asparagus.

 For the Wedding
 Fit-for-a-bride cake is fruit cake, especially for the delicious slices to be boxed for the guests. Time was when hours and hours and countless energy had to be used for making the wedding cake, but this year you can buy a fruit cake mixture made from an old Dixie recipe, to which you need add only a third cup liquid, an egg, and bake, (right in the pan it comes packed in!) to have a de- licious homemade cake. No pee1s to prepare, no nuts to crack, no fruit to slice, not even a pan to wash!
 { Cooking Asparagus
 Tie asparagus in punches to boil; you can then lift it out with out breaking. If possible, cook it standing up tthe asparagus, not yourseffD. If you have leftover buttered or creamed asparagus tips just wash off the butter or dressing with warm water and serve as salad combined with mayonnaise and pimientoes. A g. ounce jar of pimientoes is suffi- cient for the purpose, but economy dictates the purchase of the larg- CT or 4-ounce can, since pimientoes keep we'll in their own juice. Some cooks like scalloped asparagus, baked in cream sauce with crum- bled flake crackers on top.
