 DIED SUDDENLY
Accused of Killing Wife By POisOn-May Have
 Taken Own Life

Cambridge. Mass, March 2- UP)-Andrew E. Stolicker, 39, Somerville automobile polish ped dler. died suddenly in his cell at East Cambridge jail to-day-1O days after the death of his bride of three months. whom he was charged with murdering with ar senic. Jail authorities said death apparently resulted from heart attack. It was recalled. however. that the death of his wife, Eliza beth, 39, first was ascribed to heart diseuse, and an autopsy was to be performed. Possibility that Sto- Ticker had ended his own life with poison was considered by officials.
 Mrs Stolicker. who worked as laundress in chain store dis tributing plant, died suddenly at her home February 20. Discovery of arsenic and cyanide in the home caused police to hold the husband as suspicious person. Subse- quently Stolicker was held on a statutory charge involving his IS year old stepdaughter. who was co-beneficiary. with him, of Mrs Stolicker's $1.G00 life insurance policy. A murder charge Was lodged against Stolicker after a medical examiner found traces of arsenic in the wife's stomach. For 12 years prior to his marriage three monthes ago, Stolicker had been a boarder at the woman's home. Only yesterday Stolicker had bee nordered held for the grand jury when arraigned on a murder charge.

New Relief Program
 To Begin Monday
Several Rural States Effected By Administration s
 Order-New Plan to Surplant CWA

Washington, March 2-UP)- The administrators new relief program will go into effect in sev- eral rural states Monday, Federal Relief and Civil Works Administra- tor Hopkins said today.
 We are going to have whole states working on the new program next Monday morning." said Hop kins. He did not name the states in which the new plan, is to sup plant the CWA.
 The administrator said that in the states he had in mind, the civil works program would be com- pletely out Monday. Work will be started there under supervision Of state relief administrators, with whom Hopkins has been in con- stant communication.
 The administrators new relief program calls for q complete de- parture from the past farm relief policy. It is planned to give farm CTS q specific amount of part time work. on highways, and repairing projects, to supplement the income they can derive from their land.
 Hopkins said that in the next four weeks 1,104,000 workers will be removed from civil works rolls. Effective today, the rolls are to be

reduced to 2,6O9,500: effective March 9, to 2,337,350; effective March 16, to 2,O62,2O0; effective March 23 to 1,787,050; and effect i've March 30, to 1,505,500.
 phase of the new relief program, planned to take the place of the Civil Works program, would be placed in active operation at once. This particular phase calls for the physical transplantation of thou snds of stranded families, to more productive communities. In view of a plan to maintain the Civil Works quota, pra ctically unchanged in majority of indus trial centers, that part of the new relief program affecting cities will not be actively inauguratcd at least until the end of March, Hopkins indicated. The urban relief pro- gram of the future, calls for close cooperation in financial assistance of political subdivisions.
 The tentative plans provide that no single person shall be given work on q relief project for period exceeding six months.
 Responsibility for success of the new three-fold relief program was placed by Hopkins squarely on the ranks of industry, private per sons, states and municipalities.
 Unless we have the very closest cooperation with private industry" said Hopkins, "our plans to aid stranded populations cannot suc- ceed."
 Also, he emphasized, private in- dustries, counties, states and local governments must bear a large share of the burden presented by the new program in relation to rural and urban relief.
 The administration new work as announced by the president, Hop kins observed, expressed a policy of the government that able bodied persons should be given relief out of work"
 Work programs to be instituted by the administration will be de- termined by state relief bodies. The federal government will continue, 1t was said, to deal directly with the state administration.
 This is merely q statement of policy" continued Hopkins. we believe that the needy unemployed should receive benefits. We are not going to lay down too many rules and regulations-me cer- tain general principles"
 Of the initial $500, 100000 fund. which it is expected will be avail able to carry the new program for year, Hopkins said little or none would be distributed for materials.

 WEARS THE END
British Hero Was Invited
 at One Time to Kill the Mad Monk

London. Mar. 2-(UP)-Com- mander Oliver Locker Lampson war hero and member of Parlia- ment. asserted today that he had been invited to kill Rasputin. sex mad Russian monk who once ruled the Russian court by hypnotic power. He was volunteer witness for the MetrO-G oldwyn- Mayer con- pany in the libel suit brought by Princess Trina Alexandrovna, wife of Prince Felix Youssoupoff. who was one of the killers of Rasputin. known in Russia as "The Holy Devil"

New York, Mar. 2-(UP)-A series of favorable trade and in- dustrial reports today gave the background for a slowly rising stock market.
 Price gains extended from frac- tions to points. but trading was lethargic. The days total volume held around the 100000 share mark, and the tickers idled all through the five hour session.
 The agricultural group assumed the best complexion in the late trading, benefitting by a sharp run up in wheat and improved cotton prices. Wheat and cotton bene- fitted by President Rooseveh's s message to congress urging broad powers in adjusting tariffs. This was interpreted as giving poten- italy greater markets for Amer ican farm products.
 Tn the final drive J. I. Case ad- vanced points to 76 a.. Inter- national Harvester was almost 2 points higher at 42 7-8, and Deere and Company advanced point.
 Meanwhile. there had been other beneficial reports to provide a steadily creeping market. Oil stocks were bought on anticipation of heavier buying of gasoline dur ing the spring motoring months. Dun and Bradstreet reported trade conditions again were advancing. Business failures in February were the smallest in several years. Ma tional steel reported one of its units at 100 per cent of capacity. Railroad carloading were under the previous week but much of this, it was believed, had resulted from the indictment weather which tied up transportation.
 As a result the general list moved up to substantial gains. U. s. Steel was almost points higher at 55 3-4. National Steel gained point and half at 51 3-4. Youngstown Sheet and Tube gained more than a point. Du Pont, American Can and other industrial leaders were substantially higher.
 Mining shares jumped in late trading, U. s. Smelting crossing 122, for 2 points gain and Amer ican Smelling and Howe Sound showing fractional gains. Leading motors were stronger, Chrysler gaining more than point to above 56 and General Motors ex- tending above 39.
 Early buying in oils brought gains of fractions to almost 2 points. the best gain coming in Seaboard Oil at 36 7-8, up 1 7-8.

 The conspiracy to steal men, toned in the indictmnet allegedly extended from January 1. 1892, to February 5. 1884, and was devised at the expense of housewives of scores of communities in Massa- chusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.
 An attempt was made to prose- cute operators of the club scv. eral months ago in Barnstable county. But it was found that the wife of the district court judge, the wife of the police chief of Hy- annis, and wives of many Of the Barnstable county grand jurors were club members. Prosecution or the alleged racket on the grounds that 1t was lottery was there fore quashed in a district court, and the grand jury returned "no bills" State Detective Theodore Johnson, in charge of the case, abandoned efforts to prosecute Tn Barnstable county and moved ms investigation here.
 The plan called for the forma- ton of clubs of 65 members in various communities. The mem bers would pay 50 cents a week until they had paid $32.5o apiece. But when member had paid $5 she could purchase $32.5o worth of furniture, on condition oI course that she keep paying the 50 cent installments.
 Authorities said that the mem bers received furniture of dubi- n,,, ouo iitv and that as much as sI2 was paid for a lamp worth no more than SC. Their money had been paid and they were faced with the alternative of liking 1t or leaving it." one official said.
 In addition, there was draw ing once q week. at which ono woman in the club would win q piece of furniture: This. was des- crihed as a "come-on."
