New Restrictions Bar Many
Families From Relief Rolls

Uniontown, Pa.-George w. Hibbs,
county relief director, proposes to
unload at least 5000 of the i6,5OO
Fayette county families now receiving
aid through re-registration plan he
has put in effect.
The new registration requires every
family to empower the relief agent to
examine postal savings and bank rec
ords, and imposes many restrictions
not now in force, which are depended
upon to disqualify many families now
on the rolls.
There are only about $4,000 famil-
les in Fayette county, so more than
one-third now are listed as depend
ent on public funds.

F. R. REVLSES
VETERAN CUTS
Compromise May Meet Sit,
uation; Test Will Come
During Week
By HARRY FERGUSON
United Press Staff Correspondent

OnltcQ IreSS OSdH Correspondents
WASHINGTON. June 7. (UP)
President Roosevelt met an angry
congress half way late yesterday
in an attempt to still the storm
that is raging over reduction of
veterans compensation.
Whether his compromise will
be successful still was uncertain
today and will continue to be so
until later this week when the
house acts on senate amendments
to the independent offices appro-
priation bill.
Mr.. Roosevelt issued an eXecu-
tive order yesterday restoring
many of the reductions made in
veterans pay under the economy
act which Topped $4OO,OOO,0OO off
the huge sum which the federal
government pays each year to
men disabled in its wars.
He did so in the hope it would
quiet cries of "injustiCe" which
have been raised in congress ever
since the White House announced
it was going to trim the veterans
compensation in an attempt to get
the budget balanced.
In some of it's features the eX-
ecutive order conforms to the
Connally amendment to the indie
pendent offices appropriation bill.
That amendment-adopted in the
senate and pending in the house
specifies that no veteran suffer
ing disabilities incurred during
the war period shall have his
compensation reduced by more
than 25 per cent. Mr.. Roosevelt's
order contains the same provision.
The White House seemed con-
fident that the executive order
would placate the members Of
congress who have been shouting
for a week that the economy bill
did more damage than they real
lied it would when they voted for
it. If so. the way apparently is
cleared for an early adjournment
of congress; if not, the special
session is likely to drag on thru

At coroner's inquest at the

who died in the Patton Memorial
hospital on Sunday morning as a
result of gunshot wounds alleg-
eddy inflicted by her husband, Joe

waived any preliminary hearing
and was bound to the October
term of the superior court and
ordered held in the county Jail

lowing an examination of the
ground on Barnwell street where
the shooting took place, by men,
bers of the coroner's jury and
Solicitor J. Will Pless, Jr., of
Marion, who came here to assist
in the investigation.
When the inquest was con-
vened, M. NJ. Redden, counsel for
Dalton, stated that the defendant
would waive any preliminary in
vestigation and not seek bond.
This was accepted by Solicitor
Pless for the state.
Dalton was represented by Mr..

pitaf last Sunday morning short
ly before 1 a. m. She was shot
allegedly by her husband on Sun
day evening, May %, at the side
of the home of Mr.. and Mrs. H.
X. Duncan, on Barnwell street.
According to information obtain
ed by officers following the shoot
ing, Dalton went to the Duncan
home on Sunday afternoon, called
his wife from the supper table,
took her to the side of the house,
took her by the arm and emptied
the contents of a .38-calibre re-
volver, three of the shots taking
effect in her body, in the neck,
