DEATH WARRANT
OUT FOR BOY

RIPLEY, W. Va, Sept. IL G.N.
SO.-Warrants charging Ralph
Eddy, Is, with the murder of his
Step-father and mother were sworn
out today as State police, aided by
county officers and so State
troopers, conducted an intensive
search for the boy.
The youth was found to be miss
ing yesterday following the dis
covery of the bodies of the Rev.
and Mrs. A. M. Eddy at Trace
Fork, a small community in Jack
son county. Both had been shot
and beaten to death with a rifle,
identified as one which the boy
had borrowed from a neighbor
several weeks ago.
Search for the boy centered to-
day in Charleston, where the
Eddy automobile, which also was
missing following the discovery of
the double murder yesterday, was
found this morning at the State
fairgrounds.
Attendants at carnival attrac-
tions at the State fair, which is in
progress, identified pictures of the
boy as those of youth who had
attended performances last night,
Sheriff C.. j. Knit. of Jackson
county, said there were reports of
ill-feeling between the boy and his
Step-father over a neighbor girl.

Abolition of School

Abolishing of the architectural

University was denounced by
Representative Oscar De Priest, Of
Illinois, in an address before the
National Association of Negro
Technicians which just closed its
fifth annual session in Chicago.
De Priest pointed out that in
his opinion neither the president

man of the trustee board has any
interest in the education of the
Negro Uechnician. The fight to
keep the technical departments at
the university was taken up at
the convention by the Washing

NEW UPHEAVAL
SEEN IN CUBA
BY ROBERT G. NIXON

News Service

HAVANA, Sept. IL GN.SO.
The man who directed the revolt
which drove former President
Gerardo Machado from power
and permitted Carlos Manuel de
CespedeS to become provisional
president of Cuba today assailed
the administration of President
Grau San Martin as communistic
and predicted its downfall.
He is Lieut.. Cesar Lorrie, dash
ing artilleryman, who declared the
new government would "fall OF its
own weight" probably through a
third revolt of the army.
Lieutenant Lorrie declared 300
suspended army officers would
never accept the new president
and would return to duty only II
De CeSpedeS was restored to
power, and all participants IN
the second revolt were dismissed
from the army.
He frankly conceded the Off,
GERS hopes were doomed if a
strong cabinet is named and the
United tSates recognizes the new
government. He said in this
event they would return to civil
life, wishing the new admlnlstra'
ton every success.
He added, however, that the
officers would stick to their pres,
ent position if the new govern
ment fails to win American
recognition.

A report received here some
time after the robbery said Wild
had been dumped out by the rob-
bers in Youngstown, Ohio.
Gully was unable to estimate

z COAST GUARDS
LINKED IN RING

NEW YORK, Sept. IL G.N.S0.
Booze rings, smuggling liquor into
New York. had information of
every Government move to trap
them directly from New York
Coast Guard headquarters, over a
seven-year period.
That information saved the rum
runners between $20,O00,000 and
$50, 900, according to Federal
estimates, over the period in which
the arrangement was in effect.
Revelation of the startling situa-
ton came today when Assistant
United States Attorney George
Pfann admitted that two men,
one a former noncommissioned
officer of the Coast Guard service
and the other still in service, are
formally charged with conspiracy.
William Robert Wharton, for
seven years a yeoman in the SER
vice, assigned to the communica-
tions section, resigned May %,
1888, and recommended his sue
cessor, according to Government
agents.
Wharton is now on $500 bail,
after a secret arraignment before
United States Commissioner Gar
rett Cotter 10 days ago. The
other Coast Guardsman, still un-
named, is in custody at the Coast
Guard base at Staten Island, fac
ing a court-martial next week at

MiIkman Will Testify
On Morning Lights
BY ERNEsTINE BALL

SAN JOSE, Cal, Sept. IL GIN.
SO.-The milkman who will tes-
tify at the Lamson murder trial
today is a man who minds his own
business.
He has told Stanford University
friends that when he saw two
lights burning in the Lamson
home at AIS on the morning of
May 80, he had a fleeting impulse
to go into the house and ask if
he could be of any help.
Just a nice neighborly act
like asking if anyone was sick,
and could he call a doctor-but
no, he told himself, that was just
"butting in," and he stepped on
the gas and went about his busi-
ness.
So he comes into court today
to tell about those lights and
nothing else. David Lamson says
he was called by his wife, Allene,
at about 4 o'clock that morning
and fixed her hot soup and a
cheese sandwich because she was
suffering from indigestion.
No one will ever know what
might have happened if the milk
man had gone into that little
home.

80 HOUR WEEK
DEMANDED BY
NRA BOARD
Shoe Code Is Center of Fight
For Higher Pay, Less Work
In All of the Trades
By International News Service

BY international News service
A demand for a 30-hour week
in the shoe manufacturing in
dustry, with an $18-a-week mini
mum wage and opposition to the
merit clause" of the boot and
shoe code, was voiced by the
Rev. Francis j. Haas, of the
NRA's Labor Advisory Board, at
the opening of hearings today
on the code.
Haas proposal, backed by the
Labor Advisory Board, was the
opening of new campaign by
labor to lower hours of work and
raise wages under NRA codes.
Code Has Merit Clause
The code, as presented by the
National Boot and Shoe Manu-
facturers Association, contains
the clause approved in the auto
mobile code giving manufacturers
the right to employ and discharge
workers on merit alone without
regard to labor union member
ship. Father Haas said:
eff this clause does not affect
section IA of the recovery act
it is meaningless. If it does, it
has no place in the CODE"
Deputy Administrator C. C.
Williams, in charge of the hear
ing, announced he had no spe-
cific instructions from Admins
traitor Hugh S. johnson on the
merit clause. Johnson has an
nounced, however. he will not
approve the provision in future
codes.
Unions Demand Revision
The drastic revision of the
code urged by the labor ad
visory board through Father
Haas was backed by five unions
the Boot and Shoe Workers
Union, Shoe Workers Protective
Union, National Shoe Workers
Association, Salem Shoe Worker;
Union and the Brotherhood oi
Shce and Allied Crafts en-.
The labor proposal called fol
a six-hour and five-day week
The minimum wage would be sc
cents an hour s compared with
35 cents under the proposed
code, which is ~ a 40-hour week
basis.
A minimum wage for oper
atives of $50 a week. and $40 q
week for skilled workers was
urged. Piece RAJ. would be ir
proportion.
The unions and the advisory
board urged creation of a cen
tral planning board to supervise
the industry.
