Green's report was cheerfully re-

long time to make startling change
in the unemployment situation. The
federation's report was cOrroborated by
recent statistical review issued by the
Federal Bureau Of Labor Statistics and
a survey completed by the Commerce

Green and the National Recovery Ad-
miniStration concur in opinion that any
further progress to cut down the jobless
peak must depend On the checking Of
the downward spiral Of purchasing
power and the shortening OF the work

1t was pointed out at headquarters
of the recovery administration that
such was the objective of Gen. john
son in asking industry to submit only
simple codes for the time being in order
to increase the spread of employment
and purchasing power. 1t was said that
increased costs resulting from this
movement may impose hardships on
manufacturers and jobbers, but it was
the only way by which it could succeed.

POLICE END QUIZ
IN DOUBLE
KILLING
Husband Kills Bride of Six
Months, and Self After
Weekend Party

The murder of a young bride
and subsequent suicide of her
slayer husband, a District en-
ploye, is a "closed case" as far as
police are concerned.
Homicide squad detectives today
held issuance of certificates by
Acting Coroner A. Magruder Mac
Donald made further investigation
unnecessary. Police say they know
nothing of a brawl the slayer had
engaged in at some other address
before the double crime.
The shooting, which occurred
early yesterday in the 1900 block
Owen Pl. N. E., claimed the lives
of Frank O'Neal, 80, employed in
the water plant, and his bride,
Grace, a clerk. in the Department
of Commerce.
Both O'Neal and his bride had
attended party Saturday night.
Sometime previous to the killing
O'Neal had received severe pum-
melting about which police profess
to know nothing.
After the party the couple re-
turned to their home, and a loud
discussion was carried on for an
hour or more. Some time later
Joseph Wilson, 17-year-old brother
of Mrs. 'O'Neal, saw O'Neal rum
maging in a trunk in the base
ment. He thought nothing Of
the matter.
Find Both Shot Dead
A short time later there were
two shots, and members of the
family rushed in to find the,
couple dead. Police say O'Neal
first shot his bride as she slept,
then put a bullet in his own
brain. A certificate of murder
and suicide was issued by Acting
Coroner A. Magruder Macdonald.
