MAYOR CERMAK DIES AFTER
GALLANT BATTLE FOR LIFE

of the South Park board Of Chi
cago, who had been waiting
through the night near his friend
and chief.
The mayors last night was typi-
cal of the grim tenacity which
characterized his career. Before
midnight, his physicians had said
he could not live an hour more. At
2:3O, when he had sunk into a
coma, they moved him out of the
oxygen room in which a precarious
spark of life had been maintained
for hours following a blood trans
fusion.
But still the mayor, unconscious,
battled on.
Relatives and friends went into
his room, stood while by his bed
side and left, unable to watch the
touching, hopeless fight for long at
a time.
At the bedside when Cermak
died were his thre children, his
granddaughter. Vivian Graham, IT,
who held his hand for hours dur
ng the night, his brother, Joseph
and his sister Mrs. John Kallalm.

AID PLEDGED
!. RY GOVERNORS
BY FREDERICK A. STORM
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 6. W.P-
The governors of 40 states indi-
Gated today, personally or through
their representatives at the gov
ernors' conference here, that they
would go on record in support of
President Roosevelt's program for
economic rehabilitation.
The state executives who con-
ferred with Mr. Roosevelt had out
lined to them an agenda dealing
with the banking situation, federal
unemployment relief, farm mort
cages and agricultural matters.
They appointed a committee of
three to draft a resolution express
ing confidence in the Roosevelt
proposals.
That committee, composed of
Governors White of Ohio, Buck of
Delaware and Green of Rhode Is
land were to call on Treasury Sec
retary Woodin during the after
noon to discuss the formulation
also of a resolution on the banking
situation.
Mr.. Roosevelt opened the con-
ference in the east room of the
White House with a Commute re-
cital of his activities of yesterday,
which eliminated in the call for
an extra session of congress- a bank
holiday and an embargo on gold.
At the conclusion of his remarks
he left the governors to thresh out
the matters before them.
They passed over the first item
on the agenda which called for
discussion on the elimination of
conflicting taxation, federal, state
and local. Item number two, the
question of federal aid for unem-
ployment relief, provided consid-
cradle comment.
Senator David Walsh of Massa-
chusetts, who represented Governor
Ely of that state, subscribed whole
heartedly to Elys proposal that
federal aid for unemployment be
given only after the breakdown of
local agencies now entrusted with
that work.

AS the. result of a complete con-
fession to rom Sharp, district at
torneys investigator and E. H. Gies,
immigration inspector, Sheriff
George L. Campbell today signed
a complaint charging Lonjino Al
varado, AZ, with the murder of
German Burgues, 48, at the latter's
home on Lateral TIA three miles
south and one mile west of West
morland early Saturday morning.
Alvarados confession made pos
sible the solution of a crime which
threatened during most of Satur-
day to go down in the records as
unsolved, insofar as official action
was concerned.
Because Alvarado speaks no Eng
lish, Sharp called upon Gies to aid
in questioning the prisoner. Gies
speaks Spanish fluently Working
together, the two officers confront
ed Alvarado with facts as told by
other witnesses, and soon obtained
the confession.
Earlier in the day, Sharp had
questioned Salvatore Vilbalpando,
2l, who attended a dance at Bur-
CUES home Friday night, and Ig-
nacio Alvarado, 10, and Anastacio
Alvarado, 10, sons of the suspected

MIAMI, Fla, March g. U.P)-
Anton J. Cermak-Tony rom the
coal mines, who rose to be mayor
of the nations second city-died
today from the effects of a bullet
fired by an assassin who hoped to
strike down Franklin Roosevelt.
The heroic, 19-day battle of the
fighting mayor came to quiet end
at 6:55 a. m. All through the
night, Cermak had been sinking
slowly. Physicians, friends and
family alike recognized another
of the amazing rallies with which
he had surprised those around him
before could not be hoped for this
time.
Gangrenous pneumonia had set
in to complicate the coiitis, and
heavy heart strain resulting from
the bullet which cut through his
abdomen, touched his lung and
liver and lodged in his spine.
Less than an hour after he died,
the mayors body was taken from
the hospital to Philbrick's under
taking rooms.
A specially impanelled grand
jury was summoned to meet later
this morning to indict Giuseppi
Zangara, Cermak's assassin, for
first degree murder He is under
sentence of 80 years already, on
four counts of assault with intent
to murder, to which he pleaded
guilty. Now he is liable to the death
penalty.
To Get Speedy Trial
Unless the fact that the COVER
nor has declared legal holiday in
connection with the banking situ-
alton interposes legal difficulties,
it was believed zangara's trial
would be disposed of within 36
hours. If he is sentenced to be eX-
ecuted, a delay of seven days be-
fore the sentence could be carried
out would be obligatory under the
state law.

"Various communities will handle

Woodin continued.
"It is our hope to get banks into
shape to carry on checking ac-
counts during the banking holi-
day. 1t is logical to assume that
this is the aim of the President
Woodin pointed cut that federal
supervision of clearing house Ger
tificates and other mediums of ex-
change by local communities would
make the issuance legal. He point

Gates issued N 1907 were without
authority and therefore illegal The
ecretary expressed belief that
scrip or clearing house certificates
issued in one city would be accept
able in others.
Asked if postal savings accounts
could be drawn on Woodin Smil-
ingly replied
"Of course they will"
He said the treasury would con-
tinue to cash government checks
and make change.
This is the start of the real
thing the new secretary told news
papermen.
'I think we are on the bottom
and will not go lower. If people
have confidence in the great leader

ALVARADO ADMITS SLAYING OF
GERMAN BURGUES AFTER FIGHT

prisoner. From them the district
attorneys investigator finally elicit
ed a story which convinced him
that Alvarado was the person who
summoned Burgues to his door.
early Saturday morning and sent
38 calibre bullet crashing into
his throat.
From the witnesses the investi-
gator learned of gang fight which
broke up the Friday night dance,
and that Burgues and Alvarado
had exchangd blows during the
fight. Alvarado left the dance
and walked two miles to his home,
the witnesses said There he pro-
cured gun, walked back to Bur-
CUES place. His sons accompanied
him. Alvarado knocked on the
door, and shot Burgues when he
answered the knock.
The sons declared they left the
scene hurriedly and did not see
their father again until he ap-
peared at their home, without the
gun.
Alvarado first indicated that he
would tell the story of the killing
when he agreed to show Gies and
Sharp where the pistol was hidden,
He was turned over to Sheriff
Campbell and accompanied to the
ranch, where he pointed out the
weapon where he had thrown it in
to ditch.
Alvarado was returned to BraW-
ley for the inquest into Burgues'
death. His confession had not been
recorded, but he agreed to take
the witness stand at the inquest,
and there repeated his story of the
killing, saying that Burgues had
struck him under each eye during
the fight which ended the dance.
Because of this he got his gun and
returned to kill Burgues, he said.
He declared he was drunk.
The coroner's jury returned a
verdict that Burgues died from q
gunshot wound inflicted by Alva-
rado
But for the fact that courts
were closed today, Alvarado would
have been taken into superior
court for arraignment on the mur-
der charge.
Together with his two sons and
Villadpando. Alvarado is held at
the county Jail. The others are
held as witnesses.
