CH|LDERS AND
HEWES GOING
To CAPITAL

Evan T. Hewes, chairman of the
irrigation district board of direc-
tors with Charles L. ChilderS, dis
trict counsel and M. j. Dowd, chief
engineer, were authorized this af-
ternoon to act as representatives
of the board at a meeting to be
held with the state highway COM
mission in Sacramento on Thurs
day.
The chief matter of business to
be discussed at this meeting will
be that of the highway bridges to
be built over the All-American
canal route. While absent from
the valley this delegation will at
tend to other matters of district
business in Sacramento and San
Francisco.
During this afternoon S meeting
the question of cost estimates on
the canal construction was brought
up and Director Aten introduced a
resolution which would authorize
Dowd to prepare such an estimate
for the district IS use.
The question was under discus
sion at Press time with no action
having been taken on it. Director
Young was opposed to any such
action at present as he feared it
might precipitate another force
account "scrap' on the board.
Director Rose suggested that the
resolution be amended to include
asking the Reclamation service to
do the construction work on cost
basis but no action was taken on
this.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 8. up
Disgruntled longshoremen insisted
today that not even possible inter-
vention by President Roosevelt can
avert the stevedores' strike called
for Wednesday, May 8, in Pacific
coast and Gull of Mexico ports.
The President succeeded in pre-
venting walkout among the long
shoremen last March by personal
appeal to the workers. But negotia-
tions over wages and working con-
ditions set in motion by his action
have collapsed.
Nothing in Gods world can stop
these men now" said William j.
Lewis, district president of the In

ed industrial czar Chicago remem-

to Jail after Federal Judge John
P. Barnes had approved govern
ment prosecutors demand for bond
of 100000
His statement, given to newspa-
permen by his son, Samuel, Jr., car
ried a yelled warning that if any,
thing happened to him because of
his imprisonment the government
would be held responsible.
Il will make no specific requests
for any favors,' he said. THE fed
eral authorities are responsible for
my treatment and condition while I
am held in custody

was reckoned at a hundred million
dollars three years ago, said despair
ingly that he didn't know where in

H. c. w. Laubenheimer, United
States marshal, announced that In

The highly prized Laetare medal, which the University of Notre Dame awards annually 70 an out standing member of the Catholic laity has been awarded this year to former Connecticut, resident, Mrs Genevieve Garvan Brady, a mem Der of one of. Hartford's most prominent families. Mrs Brady is related by marriage to the O'Neli family of Waterbury and Wood bury, for many years well known in local legal circles. Former Gov erpor, Al Smith of New York. John Mccormack, tenor, and Dr Stephen Maher of New Haven, recent guest of the Knights of Columbus at their Catholic Action" dinner in this city, are Laetarc medalists of the past.
 Mrs Brady, the eleventh woman to receive, it, is vice chairman of the National Women's committee on Welfare and Relief Mobilization, having been succeeded by Mrs Franklin D. Roosevelt as chairman.
 The women who have received the medal, which derives it's name from Laetare Sunday, the fourth in Lent, set aside for rejoicing in anti cipation of Easter, are Margaret Anglin, Eliza Allen Star, Anna Hanson Dorsey, Mrs James Sadlier, Mary Gwendolin Caldwell, kather- inc E. Conway, Mrs Frances Tier nan Christian Reid), Agnes Rep- plier, Mary V. Merrick and Eliza beth Nourse.
 The medal is given by Notre Dame as a recognition of merit and as an incentive to greater achieve ment. The custom of awarding it originated with the Papal practice of hestowing the Golden Rose upon a member of the Catholic Italian
