PLAYGROUND
To GET AID
FROM CITY
Council Agrees To Contribute
Toward Funds After Discus
sion AT Meeting.

BY an unanimous vote OF the city
council last night it was decided
to appropriate in the neighborhood
of $500 from city funds to complete
work already started on city
playground situated on north Sew
enth street between Parl, and
Adams.
This action was taken by the
board following the appearance be-
fore them of Warren Currier who
came as a representative Of the
county coordinating council. Cur
rier told the council that this
playground project had been start
ed under CWA auspices and was
almost completed, needing but a
relatively small amount of money
to complete the work and put it in
commission.
The playground composing hand
ball, volley ball courts, tennis and
basketball courts as we'll as places
and equipment for other children
to play will be of great aid to the
city during the vacation time, Cur
rier said, in keeping youngsters off
the streets and giving them place
where they might play under prop
er supervision.
The council which is made up of
representatives of various service
clubs, the schools and other civic
organizations, has been behind this
project since it was inaugurated
and when available funds ran out
it was decided to make an appeal
for assistance to the city.
Sterling Oswalt, chief of police,
heartily recommended the project
and stated it would be a wonder
full thing for The city. After this
recommendation the proposal that
the city give the money necessary
to complete this work was put to
the vote of the council and passed
unanimously.
Bids on new police van and al
so for the city printing were open

Labor Leader
Faces Trouble

WASHINGTON, June 7. W.H-
Congressional inaction on social
legislation and under-surface move
ments in the present industrial un-
rest may combine to provide a
powerful challenge to present labor
leadership, it was indicated today.
The United Press learned that a
strong movement to curb powers of
President William O'een of the
American Federation of Labor may
be the outcome of the failure of
organized labor to obtain action on
its program from congress this ses-
sion. a
Congressional sponsors of labor
aid bills said that a liberal ele-
ment was planning to suggest to
the next A. F. of L. convention
that Green be relieved of his "lob-
by" powers.
This group is aroused ever fail

week bill, the old age pensions and
unemployment insurance measures.
They also feel that the Wagner

NAVY PLANS
To EXPAND
AIR FORCES

WASHINGTON, June 7. U.R-
The navy To-Day made plans to ex-
pand its air force to match an ex-
tensive projected ship building pro-
gram, which will provide a full
treaty strength sea force by 1889.
Speeding up the air program CO.
incides with announcement by
Claude A. Swanson, secretary of
navy, that he has approved plans
to spend $9O,000,000 this year for
building "a ships and 225 planes.
An earmarked $40,000,000 PWA
fund, as soon as approved by the
senate will be used to construct
225 planes, IL destroyers, two des-
troyer leaders and six submarines
as the first phase in the five year
Vinson replacement program au-
thorizing construction of 102 ships.
The remaining $50000,000 will be
applied on three light and one
heavy cruisers, already authorized
in the regular naval appropria-
tions for the year.
The airplane program is:
/. Completely filling all aircraft
carrier tonnage allotted under the
Washington and London treaties
as soon as possible.
2. Construction of sufficient air.
planes to supply ships launched
since 1926 and to provide the same
ratio of airplanes to ships in 1889
as prevailed in 1921.
The 13,80O ton aircraft carrier
Ranger was commissioned last
Monday. Plans have been made to
complete in 1886 two 10000 ton
carriers, the yorktown and Enter
prise, being built at Newport News,
Va.
That Will allow the United States
one more carrier of $4,000 tons un-
der the treaties.
Rear Admiral Ernest j. King,
chief of naval aeronautics, said he
hoped to obtain appropriations for
this during 1935-36.

FOUR To DIE
IN SING SING

OSSINING, N. Y, June 7. U.P) -
Death, due tonight, appeared to
be closing in as inevitably today
upon the four slayers of Michael
Malloy as it closed in upon "The
Durable Barfly" in one of New
York's most bizarre murder cases.
Barring last minute reprieve,
for which no move was evident,
Frank Pasqua, Joseph Murphy, An
thony Marino and Daniel Kreisberg
will begin their walk to the electric
chair before midnight.
Trial brought out that the four
insured the drink-loving ne'er-do-
wells life for $4,000 and set out to
collect the insurance by obtaining
his death.
They fed him poisoned liquor. He
came back for more. They gave
him sandwiches of ground glass,
poisoned oysters and tainted fish.
He liked them.
They ran him down twice with a
taxicab. But Malloy always bounced
back to Marino's barroom for an
other drink-of wood alcohol. He
scrupulously avoided Pasqua's un-
dertaking parlor.
They left him undressed on a
park bench on a wintry night, after
pouring water on him. He came
back to cure his cold with that
good stuff" Bartender Murphy dis
pensed to him.
They killed him finally by asphyx-
iating him with. gas.
