WILMINGTON, Del, November
16.-Hearings in the Governments
injunction suit against the Weirton
Steel Co., ended yesterday after seven
weeks devoted to taking Of testimony
in proceeding brought to test labor
guarantees as embodied in section Ia
Of the national recovery act.
Argument, which will be heard by
Federal Judge John P. Nields before
the case goes to decision, will start
on January IA.
More than 200 witnesses have been
heard since court called the hearings
last October 2.
Yesterdays brief session was necessi-
tated by the decision of Wierton Steel
counsel to recall E. o. Burgham,
manager Of the company's tin mill, to
deny the testimony of Government
witness. Burgham came from Weir
ton in an overnight trip and took the
stand for minutes.
Money Use Denied.
He uttered an emphatic "I did not"
TO the question Of whether he gave
money to Christy Spiro, a Weirton
employe, to finance parties in behalf
OF employe representative candidates
under the company plan of collective
bargaining.
On the basis Of testimony by Spiro
concerning such payment, the Gov
ernment alleges company domination
and interference company domination
ployes to make free choice Of COL
lective bargaining agents. as guaran-
teed by section Ia. An injunction to
halt such interference is asked.
Spiro told the court that Burgham
gave him money for three parties and
otherwise urged him to promote the
candidates. of employees favorable to
the management. Burgham entered
q categorical denial to every assertion.
To a question of Government coun-
Gel as to whether he ever gave Spiro
an order on the Weirton Co. store for
five gallons of gasoline for Spiro to
do that very thing" Burgham answered
mo, sir"
Note for Gasoline.
Paul Williams, the Government at
torney, then produced small slip Of
paper from which he read, Give c.
Spiro five gallons of gas" It was
signed "E. o. B."
Burgham identified the writing and
the initials as his When asked, do
you recall in what connection you
gave that order for gasoline?" he said,
''I do not, but did not give it for
what you just related"
Spiro, recalled to the stand, identi-
fed Burgham as the man who gave
him the gasoline order and told me
to go to the coffee houses and tell the
boys not to believe any of that bunk
that we are going to have another
election"

P. w. A. FUNDS ASKED
Spokesman Of Railroads Would
Eliminate Grade Crossings.


CHICAGO, November 16 (P.-Allo-
cation of Public Works Administration
funds for elimination of grade cross
ings was asked Wednesday by Harry
A. Wheeler, president of the Railway
Business Association and chairman of
the Transportation Conference of
1933-34.
Asserting grade crossing accidents
have claimed 4,847 lives and injured
12,434 persons during the last three
years, Wheeler in a statement said
such funds would have a three-fold
purpose: Reduction of death and
injuries, work relief in which labor
costs constitute more than half the
total outlay. and absorption of some
of the burden now placed on the rail-
roads through charges regarded by
the association as unfair.

It is getting along about the
time when you begin to be rest
less in the old house or apart
ment and are looking for new
lands to conquer. Let me help
you in the new, modern and ef-
ficient way to locate your future
home.
APARTMENT HOTEL JUST
OFF CONNECTICUT AVENUE:
In an apartment hotel of dis
tinctiveness and atmosphere I
located a most complete one
room, kitchen and bath apart
ment. I believe this will partic-
ularly appeal to the man or
woman who lives alone. The
room was very spacious and
tastily furnish d and the
kitchen was completely equip
ped, including the electric ice
box. Comfortable lounging
chairs, a desk, were all part of
the furnishings and I feel sure
if you are looking for an apart
ment of this type, I believe this
Is the answer to your problem.
The rental asked is most reason
able in accordance with value
given.
800 BLOCK OF
RANDOLPH ST. N. w.:
On Randolph Street in beau.
tiful residential section, just
across from a small park I dis
covered an apartment of the
duplex type. five large rooms
with front and back porch and
a yard. Duplex apartments are
very scarce in D. C. and this one
just became available yesterday.
The owner is having the entire
house put in first class condi-
ton and I feel safe in recon-
mending it very highly. The
kitchen contained a new stove
and electric ice box. Rental
asked is $4,000.

scribe is in accordance with
these ideals. A suite of two
rooms, kitchenette, dinette, bath
and reception hall is available
now and it is one of the roomi.
est small apartments I have
seen. While you might call the
dinette by that name, it is really
more the size of a junior dining
room and would easily hold a
small size dining, room set. The
kitchen with its many shelves
was also spacious and one
would have plenty of working
space. An entrance hall con-
nected the living room and bed.
room, both of which rooms were
quite large. Switchboard and
elevator service, and a large
laundry room with electric wash
ers were all part of the induce
mentS offered. This apartment
rented for $3.50 and I believe
you would be overly pleased if
you would see it.
SHERIDAN STREET:
If grass, plenty Of air and
rooms appeal to you this older
type of house looked at this
afternoon would certainly suit
you as it is a roomy Semi-de-
tached house with lots of ground
around it. It would be an ideal
spot for the family with small
children as they could play in
the shade under a huge oak tree
in the front yard. This house
has six nice rooms and rents
for $500. Near to public and
parochial schools, it would make
a cozy home for the family with
children of school age, large or
small. If interested. call my
office.
48OO BLOCK OF
KANSAS AVENUE:
Have you found that room in
a private home you have been
looking for? No. Well, I have
found it for you. A lovely front
room where you have all the
comforts of your own home is
available at the low rate of $40
a month. This room adjoins the
bath and is very cozily fur
niShed. The owner will gladly
share her lovely front porch
with you on these warm eve,
ningS. If interested in a real
home, call my office for further
details.

BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, Aug. 8 O.NS0
The market is giving everyone
downtown a new case of the jit.
ters. For a while another bad
break seemed to be in the making
yesterday as the gilt-edged stocks
became a little more tarnished.
There was a meaningless rally at
the close. Hopeful ones say the
market isn't as bad as it looks, but
so far it has given indications
that it would rather 60 down
than up.
There is a curious contrast be.
tween the attitude of the English
and Americans on the market.

FOOLS" he rasped. "And you are a
very reckless fool"
The orchestra played on, it's strains
loud and joyous and the dancers still
weaved on the floor. In a scene Of
revelry and pleasure Niles realized
that he had come up against some
strange drama. Ramos bowed and
moved away, his tread as light as that
of panther. Niles raised his glass
of wine and sat quietly, while various
thoughts and conjectures passed thru
his mind. Instinct as much as any,
thing else, that and a sudden antag-
onism, had prompted him to rebuff the
night club proprietor. He had been
presented with a puzzle which he
wanted to solve. Why was an ordi-
nary card so valuable to Ramos that
he would back up his request with a
definite threat?
The dance had been over for full
minute before Niles realized it. Sud-
den blackness descended on the floor
as the electrics went out, and then
in the beams of spotlight two fig
ures appeared. He cast hardly more
than a glance at the slender youth in
the center of the floor. His interest
was focused on the girl, his dancing
partner, shimmering vision, in scar
let and black Castilian costume. 1t
was the girl who had been in his
thoughts ever since her strained white
face had flashed before him in the
Broadway crowd. 1.-the and vital
she swayed and posed before him in
the mazes of the Spanish dance which
was her act. Her small foot tapped
the floor in graceful rythm and the
castanets she held clattered and snap
ped. She was a creature of life and
loneliness. What was she doing here
in the Club of Cards where some
strange undercurrent brooded?
Niles moved his chair back a trifle
as the girl undulated towards him,
twisting her figure in the swift move
ments of the dance. For an instant
one hand, rafting castanet almost
brushed his knees, and she was gone,
swirling down the floor, where the
spotlight followed her. He thought
that her eyes had met his meaning
fully in that brief moment. He knew
: it when he saw the tiny square OF
folded paper in his lap, dropped there

roof was cool. 81 must ask you for
it now"
The man was under pressure. hiding
that fact from all but the keenest
scrutiny. Niles leaned back in his
chair and met the gaze of the Span
lard squarely. He was feeling his way
through the situation.
"There was no mistake" he said.
"The courtroom girl handed me the
correct card. And I mean to keep the
ace of spades. Not only now, but
later"
He dropped his voice to low, pur-
poseful note on the last words. He
wanted to see how Ramos would take
that information. Evil rage swept
across the Spaniard's face. His pre-
tense at Latin politeness evaporated
as though it had never been.
"You will be in serious trouble, un-
less you give me that card here and
now" he snarled.
give been in trouble BEFORE" said
Niles.
"And that is your answer?
my final answer"
The Spaniard stood up, once more
cool but with a snakelike look in his
dark eyes. "The world is full Of
