UNIONTOWN, Pa. April O.
Snipers fired a fusillade of shots to-
day at an automobile in which Ship
pen Lewis, State investigator. was
riding to mining camp to inspect
picket lines. Between 100 and $50
rifle bullets came from the nearby
hills. No one was hurt.

scene of widespread strikes last Fall.
The investigator and Frank CAL
houn, a State trooper, were riding to
the Smock mine, where small group
of miners are on strike. They ap-
preached the working before dawn
and the blast came when they were
within 200 feet of the mines Office.
Lewis and Calhoun turned of the
lights of their automobile and took
refuge until daylight in the steel
walled garage on the mine property.
Two miners homes in the back
ground were hit by the hail Of bullets,
but the occupants were unhurt.
Lewis later termed the sniping "an
outrage" He added: Nobody seems
to know what the sniping was about
Maybe they're getting ready for the
Fourth of July"
Five suspects were arrested.
Observers estimated the bullets
came from seven or eight rifles. About
so miners have been on strike at the
mine, which is operating with 500
men. The men are demanding REIN

impression to the men in the field
.that the companies were able to pay
sany wage" when, he said, even at
sthe old wage scale the Alabama op-
5erators were losing II cents per ton.
I Mention Of the contract between
the Alabama operators and the United
sMine Workers which was in effect
when Johnson's order was issued,
brought retort from Lewis that the
contract was subject to any change in
ihours and wages that the N. r. A.
might order.
. Administration officials have con-
--ceded the order was one Of the most
drastic steps in codemaking yet taken
by johnson. They pointed out, how
5ever, it was purely stop-gap meas
sur, designed to prevent approximately
200, 900 miners from going on strike
upon expiration of the old wage scale
last April /.
! Opposition Voiced.
: Although the order was approved
by majority Of the operators in the
appalachian region, strong opposition
TO the new wage and hour schedule
was voiced by operators in Illinois,
alabama, Kentucky, West Virginia
.hnd Tennessee.
. Many Of these groups had contracts
with the United Mine Workers of
AAmerica. which do not expire until
next year, and almost unanimously
they contended the higher rates and
Shorter hours would force them out
of business.
: Strikes, shutdowns and court action
already have resulted from the N. r.
"A. order.
Statisticians are puzzled as to how
much the new wage and hour sched-
ale Is going to cost. The situation Is
80 complex, authorities say, it is al
'snost impossible at this time to arrive
ut any accurate estimate.
, Operators, reckoning on the basis
sof million miners and an expected
production Of 100000, 900 tons OF coal
next year. estimate the increased
costs at about $125 ZOO, 900, This means
an increase Of about IS cents q ton
in bringing coal to the pithead. Oper-
.afors say the consumer eventually will
have to bear the increased cost.

read the opinion in 20 years." Moore
replied.
Moore previously had denied that
the internal revenue office since he
took charge was dominated by COL
Sullivan.
Questioned by Rightor on Longs
charges, Moore said Sullivan had been
at his ONCE only twice, "once to con-
gratulate me on my appointment. :"
The other visit, Moore added, had to
do with the brewers tax.
Bureau Cases Denied.
Moore said he had reports from the
assistant collector and heads of three
departments saying Sullivan never
had a case before the bureau.
He denied previous testimony that
the Joe Gardiner employed In his Of
fee was a relative Of Sullivan. Long
interjected to say that charge he had
made on the Senate floor was ''an
error" by him.
Il understand the man met is
named Haman and came from the
race tracks," Long said
Reviewing previous testimony about
the personnel of the ONCE, Moore said
Miss Pearl Maretzky and Miss Evelyn
Flattery had given excellent service
with the bureau. He said they had
been recommended by several promi-
nent business men.
Long had charged that the two
women worked part time In the bureau
and in Sullivan's office.
Asked Names Of I'VE"
Long asked who was the I'VE" who
put Miss Thyra Golden in the revenue
Office. Moore said himself, Rightor
and Sullivan.
Miss Golden's application showed
she resigned from Sullivan's ONCE
before taking a position with Moore,
Long said.
Long returned to what he called
conflicting statements in testimony
before the committee, saying the NOM
inee had testified conditions in the
ofacer were "deplorable" when he
took 1t over, but in letters exchanged
with his predecessor, Moore had
agreed the office was in good shape.
Moore agreed he had testified con-
ditions in the Office were deplorable,
in the estimation Of higher officials
in the national revenue department,
but couldn't recall the details OF let
tiers exchanged with his predecessor.

conference at the bench in deciding
what questions should be asked the
prospective jurors. Bishop Cannon.
who is the leader of the Southern
Methodist Church, has publicly COM
mented on the fact that the indict-
ment against him was drawn by "a
Roman sCatholic District Attorney"
1t was finally decided to ask the
jurors whether they would be preju-
diced against Bishop Cannon and
Miss Burroughs as a result Of their
participation in campaign against
Alfred E. Smith, Democratic presi-
Dental candidate in 1928 because he
belonged to the Catholic Church.
Text Of Questions.
The text of the questions involving
religious views follows: "
Does the fact that Cannon is
charged with opposing Alfred E.
Smith, the Democratic presidential
nominee in 1928, en- the ground that
he was q member of the Roman
Catholic Church and because said
Smith was opposed to the eighteenth
amendment to the Constitution of
the United States prejudice you
against said Cannon? -
do you hold any religious preju-
dice preventing you from giving to the
defendants, Bishop James Cannon, jr,
chairman of the Board of Temper
ance and Social Service of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church. South, and
Ada L Burroughs. an employee Of the
Anti-Saloon League and a member of
that church, q fair and impartial trial
on the issues involved?" .
The jurors will be examined, by As
sistant United States Attorneys John
J. Wilson and Roger Robb They said
they hoped to complete selection of
the Jury today.
Bishop Cannon and Miss Burroughs
Indictment charged they reported to
the House of Representatives only
part of the nohey contributed to their
committee by Jameson.
Both Plead Not Guilty.
Bishop Cannon and Miss Burroughs
were arraigned immediately before the
first IL talesmen were called into the
jury box to determine their, dtness
to serve as Jurors. Both defendants
pleaded not guilty and waived read
ing of the indictment.
Assistant United States Attorney
Wilson introduced all parties con-
nected with the case to the Jurors.
These included Mr.. Dunford, Anti
Saloon League attorney. M. j.. Ful-
ton, Richmond, one OF the defense
attorneys, arose and said Dunford had
not entered an appearance In the
case, but was sitting at the counsel
table merely rs an advisor TO the de-
fense. s-.fs.

will invite the labor boys in. He will

swift agreement IS hardly in prospect.
Some concessions will have to be made
by both sides.
Progressives Hold Out.
The Republican progressives are
showing inner signs OF mild discon-
tent with the administration.
You can see it backstage in their
Senate group.
With the exception OF Senator Nor
ris, they generally have refrained from
publicly joining the new deal. They
have played q cagey game, co-operat-
ing quietly. but always leaving the
gate open so they could get out If they
wanted to.

attack, you know Spring Is nigh.
Borah keeps his ear to the ground
better than any other congressional
tactician. His criticism OF tie N. r.

this current wave of criticism.

himself others who viewed the piece of hand workmanship set a value of not less than S700 on the piece. MT Krull is a finished worker not only in wood carvirs but also in marble chisel work sculpturing, pastel drawings and so forth. Re- gently he presented to Mayor Frank Hayes marble chiseling of the family coat of arms. Mayor Hayes stated that MT KrulI is "0ne of the most versatile artists that l have ever known"
 Some time ago Mir Krull present. ed to Bishop McAuliffe a pastel portrait of the head of the diocese. The portrait was accepted with pleasure by Bishop McAuliffe and highly praised by him. MT KrGll has also made pastel portraits of President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
 Displayed at HiltOn's
 He does his work entirely by hand, without the aid of machin- cry. In view of this fact the beauty and completeness of the bust of Bishop McAuliffe displayed to-day evoked much admiration. It was placed on display at the Hilton store through the efforts of the manager, Peter F. Dunne.
 At the base of the bust is a silver plate inscribed as follows: His Grace, Maurice McAuliffe, carved and sculptured by Erik Krull, jew eler and engraver."
 Mir Krull is native of Malmoa, Sweden. He is a World War vet eran, having served with the Ger man armies. He came to this country in 1927. For the past three years he has been connected with M. A. Green of this city.

Controversy Over Dog
 Features Court Trial
Judge Unable to Decide Ownership After Lively Hear.
 ing Refers Battle to Civil Courts

. z al q A dog which apparently had a liking for everyone 1t saw prevent ed Judge Edward Mascolo from act- ing as . Solomon in city court this morning, aIiG after some very con- fusing testimony the judge gave a discharge to the man who alleged fly stole the dog and suggested that the parties concerned take up the matter in civil courts. The hearing of the case brought out such pug zles as an Italian whose name IS Lynch, a Lithuanian whose name sis Tony, and a brown dog whose name is Blackie. Z
 Cesare Basta, 6s, of 45 Railroad Hill street. was the defendant, hav- ing been charged with theft of the dog by Anthony Stevens of Wilson street. The. dog himself played a most important part in the court proceedings, rowling, yelping. dash ing about here and there and hav- ing a thoroughly swell time.
 Shows Certificate
 Stevens went on the stand first, to tell the court that he had bought the dog two years ago for SC from a man named Jack Lynch. (Jack Lynch, it turned out, is also known as Jack Rimoassia and is no descendant of the Celtic race). Stevens then displayed the certifi- cate of registration for the dog, filed at the town clerks office.
 "Call the dog" suggested Judge Mascolo.
 .'Here, Blackie," said Stevens. dutifully. Blackie, after being let go by Basta, ran around a bit, went up to the witness stand, studied the judge a moment, and then snug gled up against Stevens. Blackie, to be honest, is not very handsome dog, being a bit portly and not at all graceful in his movements.
 Son TcstifieS
 Next as a witness was Jack Lynch, Jr., or Jack RamioasSia, Jr. (Anyway he was a boy of about 12)S Yes, he agreed. his father had owned the dog and had sold it to Stevens. However, though, he wasn't sure about the whole pro- ceeding since their landlord had once taken the dog from his father in part payment for rent.
 Blackie, meanwhile, escaped from Batta's grasp several times, and made excursions about the courtroom. forcing Sergeant John Brickel to rap for order several times. .'ne boy was toi7k to cali Elackie and he did, but BlacEie got around to going to nim only after ne had apparently decided that there was nothing better in view.
 The present possessor of the dog, Cesare Basta, was placed on the stand by his counsel, Attorney Ralph Coppeto. His black mustache bristling with pained indignation, Cesare related his claims that the dog was his, tha. he hadn't sold it, that the dog was his, that he wouldn't sell it, and that the dog was his. What he wanted tn. court to know, he said. was that the dog was his.
 Whose Collar?
 "I made him a collar" he said, and collar was produced.
