When Mrs. Pearl v. Thomas,
recently retired on a pension from
the Veterans Bureau, needed some
work done at her place on Con-
duit Rd. N. w. a few weeks ago,
she didn't know that it was going
to bring romance into her life.
But it did. The workman who
came to do the job brought his
pal along. His pal is Jack Rob
inson, former quartermaster on
an oil tanker, who is residing in
Glen Echo.
Mrs. Thomas is 56. Robinson is
just half her age, %. But what
are years where true love is con-
cerned?
In the few weeks since they
met the romance bloSsomed fast.
And it will culminate to-
night when they are to be mar
ried at the Episcopal Church Of
the Redeemer at Glen Echo.
More than 100 friends Of the
bridal couple have been invited
to attend the ceremony.
Despite the difference in their
ages, the groom's mother ap-
proves Of the match.
Mrs. Thomas has been a widow
for many years.

municative as was the President
himself concerning details OF the
new scheme.
Buying to Begin at Once
It was simply announced that
the Government would start its
gold purchases Immediately, and
the rest was silence.
In one quarter it was suggested
that the Administration desired
to build up such gold reserve,
through purchase. that If and
when it becomes necessary to re-
sort to new currency issues, such
currency will have a solid gold
backing.
Such an augmented reserve also
could be used to stop raids on the
dollar from the spectators Of
London, Paris and Amsterdam.
Dropping consideration of other
matters for the time being, the
President plans to concentrate his
attention on working out his new
policy.
COnferS on Program
Although confined to the man
sion with a slight cold today, he
early summoned UnderSecretary
of the Treasury AcheSon and
Henry Morgenthau, jr., and they
had long conference over details
of the gold purchasing plan.
The President planned to seeip-
dividual members of the Cabinet
during the day in his study.
The executive council, COM
posed of Cabinet members and the
head of the various recovery
bodies. held its regular meeting in
the Cabinet room with Secretary
Of State Hull presiding.

The price will be slightly above

Vast confusion exists as to the
operation of the Administrators

his momentouS speech of Sunday
night took some of his closest ad-
visers as completely by surprise
as it did the general public.
The various groups that have

John CJake the BarberD Factor
today was summoned to appear
before the United States Senate
rial Racket" Committee to tell
what he knows about the kidnap-
ing of himself and his son, Je-
rome.
The expected appearance, how
ever, of Edward C"SpikeD O'Don-
nell was ruled against when SEN
ator Louis B. Murphy, of Iowa,
a member of the subcommittee,
said:
"What! Bring Spike O'DOn-
nell here? What do you think

Informed of the Senatorial cold
shoulder, Spike" said:

vately by Joseph B. keenan,, spe-

who obtained the convictions in
the Urschel kidnapping cases in
Oklahoma. The former Halsted

prepared to appear before the
committee, headed by Senator
Royal S. Copeland of New York.
Speaking before the subcom-
mittee this morning, George E.

LABOR BATTLES
AGAIN DRAW
NRA' 8 EYE
Inter- Union Wars in Illinois
and Kentucky, and Steel
Troubles Unsettled
By International News Service

With the master retail code at
last out of the way, the NRA today
turned its attention to unsettled
labor problems.
Chief among these were inter
union wars in Illinois and western
Kentucky fields and the stubborn
resistance to unionization of their
Captive" coal mines by steel COM
pany officials.
President Roosevelt more than
two weeks ago assumed personal
Jurisdiction in the Captive" mine
strike. He ordered the steel COM
pany operators to bargain with the
United Mine Workers of America
for suitable wage agreements.
Factors In Delay
While the National Labor Board
stood by, ready to intervene in the
captive" mine problem and the
union wars in Illinois and western
Kentucky, trouble developed be-
tween unions in the anthracite
field of Pennsylvania.
Senator Robert F.. Wagner,
chairman of the board, ruled, how
ever, that until the President re-
linquished jurisdiction in the
bituminous coal mine disputes the
board was unable to intervene
satisfactory in any mining region.
Meanwhile setting up of the
National Bituminous Coal Labor
Board has been delayed. The BIZ
luminous code became effective
October 2. Eventually the board
will arbitrate all labor disputes
in the industry.
Recovery Administrator Hugh
S. Johnson for some time has had
list of members for the board
ready for submission to the Presi-
dent, but has not asked approval
of the list pending direct action
by the Chief Executive in the
captive" mine strike.
Order Awaited
Senator Wagner said he cannot
go further in coal mediation ef-
forts until the President has i'm
posed an executive order on the
steel company operators, requir-
ing them to submit, to formal
recognition" of the United Mine
Workers in some manner or
another.
Once this order is issued by the
President, Wagner indicated he
would ask permission to inter
vene in coal mine disputes until
the National Bituminous Coal
Labor Board began functioning.
Wagner added that he under
stood all anthracite mine dis
putes in central and eastern Penn
Sylvania were to be handled local
ly by arbitration machinery long
in use in the fields.
The anthracite industry IS not
vet under a code. It is expected
the operators will submit a code
for consideration later this week.
