CONDUCTOR HURT IN WRECK DIES

Stamford, May 1-(UP)-Wil- liam Foley, AS, Ghent, N. r., rail- road conductor who was crushed when a New York-bound freight train was derailed at a crossing here yesterday, died early today at Stamford hospital. He suffered internal injuries when he was thrown from the caboose of his train, which was on an adjoining track into fhich the derailed cars swerved.
 The public utilities commission and railroad Investigators started separate inquiries into the cause of the wreck today. It was believed a split switch or broken coupling may have caused the cars to leave the rails, precipitating one of them in the city's center. The loss to the railroad was estimated at more than $10,000. Many cars contained perishables which were strewn over the tracks and into the street below.
 All traffic was disrupted for more than four hours until two tracks could be cleared and the last of the wreckage was not hauled away until early this morn- ing. Engineer Isaac Davis said he had no warning of the accident. He said he felt the rear of the 91- car train snap like a whip and the engine was checked with such force he was almost thrown to the floor of the cab. Foley's train was composed of an engine, ca boose and one other car and was | used as a switcher.

M'SWAIN TAKES
 RESPONSIBILITY

Washington, May l. (UP)- Chairman John J. McSwain of the house military affairs committee, which was rebuked yesterday by President Roosevelt for the com mittee's publication of secret hear ing testimony on war plans, said today he would assume full re- sponsibility."
 "I heartily and sincerely concur with the president" McSwain said, ''in desire to live up to letter and spirit of any treaty we may have with Great Britain, Canada or any other nation and our army and navy are entirely and, solely for defense and never for aggression.
 ''There are and have been for 100 years forts along the Canadian frontier and they never have been recognized as hostile to Canada any more than French forts along the Belgian frontier are hostile to Belgium. They are merely placed as a defense against any foreign notion that may come through Belgium"
 "The committee is in no way re- sponsible," McSwain said. T as- sume full responsibility for what happens through clerks in my of fice."

OWNER OF FOUND
 GOLD IN DOUBT

Baltimore, May 1-(UP)-Two 16-year-old boys who dug up a pot of gold waited today to know if the wealth really will be theirs. They may know tomorrow the val ue of the find estimated by numis- matics at $28,000 but 1t may be weeks before they know whether it will be theirs. The S55S gold coins they found in a copper kettle III the basement of a deserted house here last August are to be sold at auction by Perry W. Fuller, act ing on orders of the circut court.
 Claims of the boys, Theodore and Henry Grob, were disputed by Mrs Elizabeth H. French, Miss Mary P. B. Findlay and the heirs of the late Andrew Salisbury, for- mer owners and occupants of the house where the money was found.
 The rival claimants were heard yesterday by the appellate court in Annapolis. A decision may not be handed down for several weeks. The case went to the appellate court on an appeal from a decision last February by Judge O'Dunne in circuit court here that in the absence of clear proof of the own erships flinders is keepers"
 Most of the coins are more than 100 years old. Their face value is $11,427, but collectors of old coins are expected to pay more than double that for them. The pot of gold was uncovered by the boys while digging in the cellar to bury a cigar box containing nickels and dimes collected in club dues. They reported their discovery to police.

 Main Points On Line.
 Senator Culhane pointed out that all the streets he proposed for the trunk line were main routes into points north of Water bury in this state and other states of New England. He also referred to the recent bad accident on Southington Mountain as an indi- cation of the need of a new Wa terbury- Hartford route. He has a bill pending in committee creating state road through Bucks Hill.
 Socialists Tied Up:
 The republican-socialis alliance in this matter was regarded as highly significant by political ob- servers today and seems to indi- cate that all future controversial matters will find the democrats opposed by a solid majority. That there was a socialist-republican tie- up has been denied by the former on many occasions. After today's balloting there can hardly be any more doubt about it's existence.
 Other Senate Bills

(Continued from Page 1.) have congress take the responsible ity for framing MIRA legislation.
 While MIRA officials refused to comment immediately, it was known that they did not favor the course decided upon.
 A draft of the continuing resc- lution will be drawn in time for presentation to the committee to- morrow, when the formal action to give it favorable report will be taken.
 T think this is the best way out of the situation," Harrison said, "and thaht is why I champione,i the plan before the committee.
 II think that this will greativ expedite action on MIRA, meanwhile giving the courts every opportun. ity to pass on every phase of tho matter.
 When congress meets next Jan. uary we shall proceed immediate ly to further consideration of the NRA.
 Meanwhile hope that in tLe administration of MIRA it's officials can make any changes that will popularize the act"
 Harrison said no record vote was taken in deciding to support the continuing resolution. He said tha on a show of hands 16 voted for it and three against. He said the three were Sens Harry Byrd. D, Va, Hugo L. Black, ID. Ala, and Thomas Gore, D, okla.
 "In my opnion," Harrison said. ninety per cent of the criticisms revealed during our investigation of MIRA can be cured through ad- ministrative processes.
 T haven't the slightest doubt that MIRA authorities, under the direction of the president in the event this extension is approved. will make such changes as will cure these defects"
 Sen William E. Borah, R, Ida. said yesterday that a ban on codes for business engaged wholly in in- tra-state commerce - that com merce conducted entirely within the borders of state-'would pro- tect 80 per cent of the small busi- nesses of the nation."
 Donald R. Richberg argued then that the MIRA should be continued for two years and that certain definitions of interstate commerce, which under the constitution con- gross has power to regulate. should be written into the new law so that some intra-state industries could come under the NRA.
 Horrlson said some amendments probably would be offered on the iioor of the senate.
