ESTATE APPEAL
LOST BY WIDOW

Reversing a District Supreme
Court decision, the Court of APP
peals today ruled that Mrs. Ruth
Loughran was not entitled to
dover in the estate of her second
husband, Daniel Loughran, jr.,
because she was the guilty party
in an absolute divorce dissolving
her first marriage and as such
could not contract a second valid
marriage.
The decision was based upon
the D. c. Code provision, denying
the guilty party in an absolute
divorce action the right to re-
marry. Mrs Loughran sued the
trustees of the estate of Daniel
Loughran. ST., to recover her
dover interest in the estate of
her second husband.
Testimony showed she married
Loughran in Florida after her
first husband, Henry Daye, had
obtained an absolute divorce from
her in the District. The court
held the decree in the divorce
action barred her right to recover
the dover interest, as she could
not contract a valid marriage,
even though the marriage was
contracted in another jurisdiction.
Attorneys William E. Leahy and
James F. Reilly argued the case
for the Loughran estate trustees.

the year, under terms Of the
$500, 100000 Federal emergency

The funds expended by the
State for relief purposes during
that month will be matched and
one-third will be paid out in
direct grants.

WOMEN DENIED
USE Of ALLEY

From now on, Katherine Doug
las and her aunts may enter
and leave their home in the 400
block East Capitol st. by the
front door only.
This was decided today by the
District Court of Appeals in
settling a dispute between two
families over use Of a three-foot
alley in the rear of their ad-
joining homes. The alley is the
only means of leaving and enter.
ing the homes from the rear.
Charles N. Lehman, the next
door neighbor, claimed that
under his deed to the property,
he was entitled to exclusive use
Of the alley.
The Douglas family contended
they were entitled to use the
alley on the ground of existence
of a permanent easement.
The District Supreme Court
granted Lehman an injunction
restraining the Douglas family
from using the alley and the
Court of Appeals affirmed this
decision,

Works Legislation

Public works benefits that may
accrue to the District in the ad-

acted So, 300, ,000,0 900 industrial re-
covery act will be the subject of
a conference between President

District Committee chairman,
when the chief executive returns
from his vacation.
Senator King announced today
he would confer with the Presi-

public works provisions OF the
bill to District needs and also to
determine what funds would be
available for District expendi-
lures.
He also will confer with
Engineer Commissioner John c..
GotwalS to determine what public
works are essential. He said:
I'm view of the fact chat
whatever money the District re-
ceiveS will have to be repaid,
it is necessary that a survey be
made to determine what pro-

should not borrow money for
public works that do not afford
benefit to the community"
President Roosevelt will return
early in July and it is expected
that King will confer with him at
that time.

CAUSES
SEWER FLOODS

Lowering clouds forecast more
rain today as Washington sur
veyed and repaired the damage
done by yesterdays torrential
downpour.
Officially 81 of an inch of rain
fell, most of it during the early
moments of the storm which came
on with rush propelled by a high
wind and accompanied by vivid
lightning and heavy thunder.
Autos Go Dead"
Autoists and streets and high
ways were the principal sufferers
although flowers were felled and
big limbs stripped from trees.
So many automobiles were
stalled by the deluge of water
that the American Automobile
Association answered almost a
record number of calls for help.
Several sections of the city were
flooded due to inability Of storm
sewers to carry off the flood. And
in two sections-Delaware Avenue
and B Street Southwest and the
54OO block of Conduit Rd N. W.
water mains burst.
Roads Damaged
Sewers and drains in Arlington
county we're taxed beyond capa-
city and in some sections minia-
ture floods resulted. Many roads
were slightly damaged and along
main highways motorists were
compelled to slow down because
of silt, rocks and the like which
washed onto the road.
On Arlington Avenue, leading
from the Memorial Bridge to Ar.
lington National Cemetery, the
wide boulevard was covered with
heavy mud and silt washed from
nearby fields.
On Mt. Vernon Memorial Boule-
ward at the Highway Bridge un-
derpass, the water was more than
a foot deep.

Several tentative sites for the
burning of refuse were submitted
to the office of the Sanitary
Engineer of the District today by
Major ]. D. Arthur, District
Engineer.
The District is faced with the
necessity of finding a place to
dispose of it's excess trash after
July /, when the southeast in
cinerator will be closed because
of lack of funds.
Closing of this incinerator will
leave only the Georgetown plant
in operation and this has been
found to be inadequate to handle
all of the trash collected by the
District.
In addition to the excess of
District-collected refuse, some
means must be found of disposing
of refuse from commercial and
Federal buildings. This trash for
merly was taken to the in
cinerator in private trucks and
burned, but with only one in
cinerator operating there will not
be sufficient means of handling it.
The sites now under considera-
ton include four points near
cast Lake and the National
Training School in the northeast

ASSUMES
POST AS RENT
SURVEYOR
Will Probe Housing, Rentals
and Complaint Methods;
Funds Are SCant

The rent survey of the Public
Utilities Commission officially got
under way today with the swear
ing into office of James Ring,
former clerk to the Senate
District Committee, as rent survey
research assistant.
Ring was sworn in by Frank E.
Cunningham, clerk of the District
Supreme Court. and Immediately
reported for duty at the offices
of the Commission.
Rings work, under the Senate
resolution which authorizes the
survey, will be divided into two
divisions, he said. One will deal
with the finding of facts relating
to housing and rentals in the
District and the other with
receipt and adjustment Of COM
plants.
Limited funds may hamper the
work somewhat, it was pointed
out, since the Commission will
have little or no funds to hire
clerical assistance. Workers on the
welfare relief rolls will aid in the
work, however. These persons,
who are given two days work a
week on made work" projects
will be called upon for tipping and
other clerical tasks.
Ring brought to the District
Building with him mass of data
compiled at the recent Senate
hearings on the rent situation
here, which will be used as a
starting point of his investigation.
Forms will be drawn up at
once for the filing of complaints,
and it is expected that the entire

away in his own car, it was said.
One of the men, James Mason,
is under arrest.
Patton is the father of two

reason for participating in the
robbery his desperate need for
funds to take care Of his ill wife.

GUT IN BUDGETS.
To RESULT IN
JOB LOSSES
200 Dry Agents to Be Among
Those to Feel Ak; Other
Field Workers to Go

Definite statements from sev.
eral Federal departments have re-
vealed just how personnel reduc-
tions will be made to comply with
budget cuts for the coming fiscal
year.
The State Department has asked
for the resignation of a number
of conSuls and other consular Of
ficers.
The Treasury Department, larg-
est employer in Uncle Sans en-
tire organization, will not initiate
wholesale dismissals, although sc
employees in the Washington force
and about 500 in the field for the
Internal Revenue Bureau will have
to go. There will be tWo-day fur
loughs each month throughout
the Treasury, and probably three
days for the survivors in Internal
Revenue. Annual and sick leave
will be charged against the fur
loughs.
Dry Agents Go
The Department of Justice,
which began under the new Ad.
ministration with a drastic slash
in personnel, will let about 1900
prohibition agents go, in addition
to other cuts of some magnitude.
The War Department will re-
duce civilian personnel somewhat,
but not the military. The Navy
has already fired 203 civilian
clerks, and will have to make va
rious economies, but work for the
navy yards will be provided under
the industrial recovery act, and
this will relieve the strain con-
siderably.
Postmaster General Farley has
announced humane" policy for
his department, through staff re-
ductionS brought about by natu-
raj causes and a policy of not
filling such vacancies. There will
be a nine-day furlough through
out the department in the next
three months.
The Labor Department plans
to avoid much reduction in per.
sonel, but has not gone into de.
tails.
The Interior Departments pol.
icy will be to eliminate married
persons whose mates are also in
the Federal employ, and 30-year
employees who can be retired, pro-
vided their efficiency rating are
not up to the mark. Other dis
missals may also be required, and
individuals will receive short fur
loughs, which will be distributed
equitably, it is announced.
Married Workers Out
Commerce is taking about as Sc
we're a rap as any organization.
Some 500 married persons will be
dismissed, the foreign service has
been slashed considerably, and
domestic offices will also be
pruned down.
The Bureau of Standards will
be cut considerably and furloughs
are in prospect all around.
Agriculture is still uncertain,
though the marketing service has
been ordered discontinued.
In the independent bureaus,
General Accounting will dismiss at
least $50 persons. it is expected,
and the Interstate Commerce will
rid itself of a large part of the
personnel Of the valuations divis-
ion and the bureau of accounts,
though most of these employees
will probably be taken over by the
Railroad Coordinator.
Some dismissals will be made
by the Civil Service Commission,
and furloughS will be the rule,
