MODIFY DEMANDS
Employees Indicate Principle
Of Preferential Shop May
Be Accepted.

BY the Associated Pres.
PATTERSON. N. j., October 2s.--
Modified demands for submission to
employers were drafted today by union
leaders. seeking q settlement Of the
strike Of 10000 silk and rayon dyers.
With employers refusing to adcede
to the demand for closed shop,
1t was indicated that the strike leaders
would express willingness to accept
. preferential shop" ~ II
Should q new contract embooying
this principle be signed, only union
workers would be employed IN the
future, but non-union workers hired
before the signing Of the contract
would be permitted to remain.
The union has rejected q tentative
settlement plan, worked out by en-
ployers and workers at q Washington
conference. Under this plan, en-
ployers would have recognized the
right Of the union to organize with
out interference and to bargain col
lectively for the workers. and the
basic weekly minimum pay Of $23
would remain unchanged.
Strike leaders estimate that the
walkout, which began last Thursday,
Is now nearly 100 per cent effective.

Court Rules Man
Is Entitled to Pay
Under Any Name
COIOred Citizen accused
of Getting Job Under
False Pretenses.

Mathew johnson by any other name
still is entitled to receive pay for
work he did. Judge Gus A. Schuldt
ruled In Police Court yesterday.
Mathew, colored, was brought be-
fore the court charged with false pre-
lenses in getting q job with the Re-
lief Administration.
He told Judge Schuldt he had
registered for work with the relief or
ganiza ton, giving his home address in
the 400 block of Cunningham court
southwest. SO, when work card
came addressed and made out to
"Eppie Johnson" he took 1t and went
to work.
IT just thought they had made q
mistake in my name Mathew said,
"and I needed work so bad took it."
Relief workers testified he had
drawn $2s after working for It.
1t developed that Eppie johnson
had lived In the Cunningham court
house just before Mathew moved in
and also had applied for relief. The
discrepancy in names was discovered
when Eppie went to relief headquar-
tiers to find out why he hadn't re-
ceived his card.
Judge Schuldt took Mathews per-
sonal bond, with the comment that
he had probably earned $28.

Anacostia Group Lament
Lack of Plumbing and
Heating Facilities.

Deplorable conditions in the form
OF no plumbing or heating facilities

Building were cited at a meeting of
the Anacostia Citizens Association
last night
The building, situated on v street
southeast between Thirteenth and
Fourteenth streets, is an annex to
the principal school, the Van Buren,,
which is located on w street south
east between Thirteenth and Four
teenth.
At a recent meeting Of the Board
of Education this fact was made
known to the board. but, according
to the committee which represented
the association at the meeting, the
school ofiiciais said, in all probability,
nothing would be done to remedy this
condition, as a part of the appro-
priations for the new Junior-Senior
High School in that locality had al
ready been made and that the Van
Buren Annex would, in the near fu-
ture, be abolished entirely.
Ask Bus Line Extension.
The secretary was directed to send
q letter to the Public Utilities Com
mission and the Capital Transit Co.
to request the extension OF bus
line that now operates in that sec
ton and goes as far as Twenty-second
street and Minnesota avenue south
east. The letter requests that the
company and the Utilities Commission
extend this service to continue to
Minnesota avenue and Good Hope
road. 4

ton ride" for the present and wait
until a more thorough survey is

citation directing a letter be sent to
Capt. Sidney J. Marks Of the eleventh
precinct asking for special police
vigilance Of a junk shop located at
w street and Shannon place south
east to notice if any violation of the
law is being made. In a recent meet
ing the association went on record as
opposing the renewal of a permit for
the continuation of business there,
but. as the shop was abiding by the
laws governing junk and dump shops,
the matter was dropped.
Favorable reports were given by the
chairmen of the Streets and High
ways Committee and the Police and
Fireman Committee.
In the absence of the president.
DR.. George C. Havenner, the meet
ing was presided over by the vice

SUIT AGAINST A.A.A.
UPHELD BY JUDGE
Maryland Jurist Refuses to
Dismiss Restraining
Action of Dairy.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated FreSs.
BALTIMORE, May 26. - United
States District Judge w. Calvin Ches-
nut yesterday refused to dismiss an
action. brought in Federal Court to
restrain the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration from investigating the
books of a local dairy on the defense
plea that Henry A. Wallace, Secre-
tary of Agriculture, was outside the
jurisdiction of the court.
Judge CheSnut declared he would
not, II he could possibly avoid 1t, set
tie anything so fundamental to the
rights Of every citizen Of Maryland
and of the United States" as the ques-
ton at issue in the suit without a
full hearing on the merits of the case
The suit was filed in court by
Charles G. Page and George White.
attorneys for the Royal Farms Dairy
against Secretary Wallace and four
ofI1cials of the Adjustment Fund Com
mittee for Maryland of the A. A. A.
The plaintiff asked that the defend
ants should not be allowed to inspect
the dairy's books because the A. A. A.
was unconstitutional. Page in court
yesterday argued that the act tended.
to deprive q citizen of his property.
without due process OF law and held
the business Of the dairy was intra-''
state and not interstate.
William L. Marbury jr. counsel
for the four officials of the committee,
asked for dismissal of the suit, set
ting out that under the law the Sec
retary of Agriculture had his residence
in Washington and could not be sued
in the Maryland District Court of
the United States unless he chose to
come here. Marbury added Wallace
did not so choose.
1t Is startling proposition. Judge
Chestnut asserted. that a citizen of
the United States shall be deprived
of his constitutional rights. If he is
being so deprived as c0ntended by
the plaintiff, because he cannot sue
the Secretary of Agriculture in the
citizens own State.
The answer to that proposition, the
jurist went on, might be that the
Secretary Of Agriculture can only sue
and enforce his regulations by going
to the place where the citizen lives.
Judge Chestnut also expressed amaze
ment that the State of Maryland was
not represented in court during the
arguments.
