NATIONAL SCOPE
SOUGHT FOR
.M|LKPROBE
Chicagoan Sends Request to
Senator King for Hearing
On Illinois Situation

Another request that the milk
investigation being conducted by
a subcommittee of the Senate
District Committee be made ma
tional in scope was to be voiced
today to Senator William H.
King, chairman of the District
committee.
The request comes from David
L. Sutton, chairman of the milk
committee of the city council OF
Chicago. It will be presented by
William A. w. Hamilton, repre-
senting the council, who is in
Washington to protest proposed
amendment to the milk market
ing agreement for the Chicago
area.
GOuging Charged
A previous request for a ma
tional probe of the milk industry
was made by Representative
Charles N. Crosby, of Pennsyl-
vania, who charged that both
producers and consumers are be-
ing gouged by the milk trust"
Hamilton declared that neither
the consumers nor the Chicago
council has been given an oppor-
tunity to be heard on a milk
code for that area and added
that Mayor Kelly, of Chicago,
and members of the city council
ARE very greatly incensed and
gravely concerned about any in
crease in the price of milk"
Needs Time for Study
Elwood Seal, counsel for the
milk investigating committee,
announced today that hearings
before the committee, tentatively
scheduled to begin Monday, will
be postponed for at least another
week in order to give him more
time to study the data he has
collected.
The 20 Washingtonians prom
inent in dairy and governmental
circles, who have been sub
poenaed to appear before the
committee, will be notified of
the postponement, it was said.

Representatives Charles L. Alb

and John H. Hoeppel CD of
California are the latest additions
to the list of members of Con-
gress who have announced that
they will favor restoration of

American Federation of Govern

"I strongly advocate the Gov

81 RELIEF AIDES
GET RAISE

Salary increases for 81 en-
ployes of the District Emergency
Relief Administration will be ap-
proved, it was announced today
by Federal Relief authorities.
This action followed the move
of Leroy A. Halbert, emergency
relief administrator for the Dis
trict, in refusing a $500 year
increase voted him several weeks
ago by the Emergency Relief
Committee.
The increase in Halbert's pay
caused much discussion among
Federal officials and led to the
threat on the part of Harry L.
Hopkins, Federal administrator,
to suspend relief payments to the
District if any of the pay in
creases were taken from Federal
funds.
Comptroller General J. R. Nc
Carl then ruled the raises illegal,
but later reversed the ruling.
Halbert then announced, in a
letter sent yesterday to the Emer-
gency Relief Committee, that he
would refuse to accept the extra
pay.
Action of the committee in
cutting the pay of 27 employees
transferred from the rolls of the
defunct Committee on Unemploy-
ment has not been questioned.
The raises to some workers and
cuts to others were made in an
effort to equalize the pay. OF the
two groups, it was declared.

Razor Welder
Rips Dresses
In Store

Department store detectives
were warned by police today to
be on the lookout for a colored
woman who is wanted for de-
stroying clothing in a down.
town department store. The
woman is described as being
S feet 8 inches in height and
of stocky build. The fact that
the woman destroyed several
valuable dresses by Slashing
them with a razor, and made no
attempt to steal any of them,
puzzles police.

DEMAND ADDED
HELP FROM
HALBERT
we Don't Want Excuses
Says Leader Spencer; Par
ade DWindIeS to So

Fifty-three marchers-three of
them women-Were all that
turned out for the great hunger
march" staged here today by the
Washington Unemployed Council,
Communist organization which
sponsored a similar march last
winter.
Although Harold Spencer, di-
rector of the council, had pre-
dicted thousands would be in the
line, only a handful reported at
Twenty-fifth and I Streets North.
west and Eighth Street and
Rhode Island Avenue Northwest,
the two places assigned by police
for the marchers to assemble.
Banners assailing the NRA and
demanding additional relief
grants were carried by the march
erS.
Spencer Sees Halbert
Flanked by police and news
papermen, the little band march
ed to the Emergency Relief Head
quarters in John Marshall Place
and a committee headed by Spen-
Ger went to see Leroy A. Halbert,
relief administrator.
Presenting their demands,
Spencer said:
1--WE don't want excuses. You
have told us before that you
have no money. Well, you
have, and we demand that you
spend it more laviShly."
To Halbert's reply, asking what
he would do if he ran out Of
money, Spencer threatened:
"That's all right. Wen take
care of Congress.
Halbert promised to present the
demands to the Board of Public
Welfare Relief Committee for
consideration.
Demands Representation
Spencer then demanded that
the next meeting of the COM
mittee be open so that the march
ers might appear and voice their
demands. Halbert pointed out
that he could not promise this, as
he is not a member of the COM
mittee.
One of the banners carried by
the marchers charged:
"The Blue Eagle Fired 5000
Government Clerks Fight Lay
Offs"
Other signs read:
eve Demand so cents an
hour for relief work"
1--WE Demand food orders for
weeks we do not work."
"Raise Relief to meet rising
prices"
Talks to Marchers
After the meeting in Halbert's
office was ended, police gave
Spencer and his committee per-
mission to address the rest of the
marchers who had waited outside
the building.
Given 25 minutes to tell what
had transpired, at the conclusion
of this time police dispersed the
gathering. There was no violence,
the marchers leaving in small
groups in orderly fashion.

generated itself in the room, too many
boys asked to leave the room, too
many girls giggled, the best spoilers
suddenly failed on such simple words
as "phthysic," and ruin stared us
in the face. So recess was called and
we all came back better boys and

I suppose that hope for similar
result has inspired the recess of the

broken up, just at the time when it

Trade Board Starts
Its OlUn 'RenOUizing'

Principles of the "renovize"
campaign in Washington have
suddenly been applied to it's
sponsors, though their participa-
ton is a little tardy.
Headquarters of the Washing
ton Board of Trade, which some
weeks ago began urging citizens
to remodel and redecorate their
homes, are now being given a
little brushing up themselves.
The 'renovizing" in this case
consists of the painting of the
meeting hall in the trade board
offices, in which four workmen
are now engaged.

But why call it new Constitution avenue?"
asks visitor, realizing that streets have been

The answer to this question runs back many
years, through the growth Of a plan for the
greater development of the National Capital.
Constitution avenue, in other words, is an out
growth of earlier plans and the fulfillment
of dream. As matter Of fact, Constitution
avenue is part of a bridge project, the Airing
