them through their PAGES. Prior

to death. They bribed a guard
with her jewels and escaped.
In the cage she uses nothing
except whip, and her philosophy
is:
"Tf / am to die, / die"

Mrs. Roosevelt
Names Women
Leaders

Two suffragists, three social
welfare workers, two aviatrices,
two United States officials, one
utilities executive and a novelist
are regarded by Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt as outstanding women
in the United States.
Stressing the point that she
does not necessarily regard them
as the greatest, nor as the most
successful in their fields, the First
Lady, in a radio address last night,
listed them as women of achieve
ment "who have been and are
constant inspiration and help to
me-"
Who They Are
The list:
DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, who
died in 1919, and Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, both suffragists,

their leadership of other women" !"

Further mystery developed today

will.
In performing a postmortem ex-
animation of the exhumed body,
DR.. Jerome KearnS, coroner's
physician, reported that Kelly did
not die of cancer as the death
certificate stated. Further exam
ination was necessary, DR.. Kearns

(Continued from First P0ge)
Postmaster General Farley was
far-reaching. 1t may serve to ad.
minister another defeat to the
President on the prevailing wage
issue in connection with the 1880
million dollars work relief bill.
Senator Long charged the Ad-
ministration was trying to "buy
votes" on the wage issue by offer
ing Senators huge slices of the
work program for their States.
He charged he was being dis
criminated against as the Admin
istration had made no bid for his
vote.
Another battle may come over
the hint of Senator Carter Glass
CD of Virginia, that the Admin
istration will take steps to curb
free debate in the Senate. This
threat has been heard from time
to time, but no effort ever has
been made to prevent unlimited
debate-except under the trad1-
tional cloture rule, by which a
two-thirds vote may limit debate
on any bill to single hour for
each Senator.
May Ask CIOture
Cloture may be sought on the
Presidents work relief bill. If
it is, it will be defeated. since
almost a majority of the Senate
favor unlimited debate on it,
even if Senator Long makes a
political speech every day.

SERVICE TRADES
HELD AIDED by
NRA SYSTEM
Hartman, Opposing BiddIe
Views, Says Workers Are
Being Helped

Opposing assertions by Francis
Biddle, chairman of the National
Labor Relations Board, w. Averill
Hartman, acting chairman of the
National Industrial Recovery
Board, today took steps to prove
employees of the service trades are
not forgotten men" Of the New
Deal.
Mr.. Hartman contended these
workers were being cared for as
well as the eXigencies Of their
trades permit.
Cites Shorter Hours
Citing data prepared by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics Of the
Labor Department covering the
latest available period. July, 1888,
to July, 1884, Mr.. Hartman
stated the average number of
hours which employees worked
decreased 14.2 per cent for hotels,
6.4 per cent for laundries, and
81 per cent for cleaners and
dyers.
Mr.. Hartman, while recogniz-
ing business gains in the period,
believes reduction in hours and
the increases in hourly wages are
largely the result of the NRA
system.
Held Success in Cities
Mark Eisner, special adviser to
the administrative division of
NRA, concurs with the Hartman
viewpoint. He adds that, while
some of the service codes have
not fully accomplished the ends
for which they were formulated,
the codes of a number of the
larger service industries, especially
those in the larger urban centers,
have been more successful.
According to Labor Department
and NRA statistics, the service
industries employ approximately
100000 workers, ranging from
bootblacks to hotel men. Because
of the nature of the work, the
codes of these industries have
been the chief source Of code vio-
lation complaints.

ONLY | ELIGIBLE
FOR CEMETERY

With burial Of Justice Oliver
Wendell Holmes in Arlington
Cemetery yesterday, only one
man remains who is eligible for
interment in the old Battle;
ground Cemetery.
He is Major E. r. Campbell, 81,
Of 80 Elm St., Takoma Park, Md.
Only those who fought on the
site of the cemetery during the
Civil War in repulsing Gen. Juhal
Early'S Confederate attack upon
Washington can be buried there.
Reports were that Justice
Holmes was the last of these
eligibles. Friends of Major Camp
bell, however, pointed out that
he, too, fought in the battle with
Early, and has the right to rest
in the cemetery.
Major Campbell was with the
First Vermont Heavy Artillery.
Forty men have been buried
there, and National Capital Park
officials have said the cemetery
soon will be closed forever.

RELIEF BURDEN
QUADRUPLED
IN A YEAR
January, 1894, Allotment to
States, $29, ,065, ,737; That
of 1885 Is $151 100000
Copyright, 1888. by International
News Service)

The public relief load has in
creased almost 100 per cent in
number of persons, and more
than 400 per cent in cash cost
to the Federal Government in
the last year, records of the Fed
eral Emergency Relief Administra-
ton revealed today.
In January, 1884, 11,086,598
persons were on emergency relief
rolls. In January, 1885, the mum.
ber was 20,500,000.
Emergency relief administration
allotments to States for relief in
January, 1884, totaled $29 ,065, ,737.
Allotments to States in January,
1895, totaled $151 100000. From
the peak of 4,56O,OOO families on
relief in March, 1888, the number
of persons on relief declined to the
low point of 2,486,274 families, or
11,086,598 persons, in January,
1884.
Since that month there has been
a steady increase, except for a
slight recession last June, to the
high mark Of January this year.

j. 8. LOSES PAY,
HOURS FIGHT

ST. LOUIS, March 9 G.N.S).
Congress has no power to fix wages
and hours for intrastate business,
United States Circuit Judge Faris,
sitting in District Court, ruled to-
day.
The decision was made in a
ruling denying the Federal Gov
ernment's petition for temporary
injunction to prevent the National
Garment Company and the Ma
tioal Underwear Corporation of
st. Louis, a subsidiary, from vio-
lating the NRA code for the under
wear industry.
Judge Faris decided against
the Government in it's suit to COM
pei the two companies, which
have plants here and in Chaffee,
Mo-, to comply with the maximum
hour and minimum wage provi-
sions of the code.
Holding that the concerns are
intrastate businesses, that is oper-
ating wholly within Missouri,
Judge Faris declared that he was
merely following decisions of the
United States Supreme Court in
formulating his ruling.

HOUSE GROUP
RAPS POLICY |
Of AGENCY |
Labor Committee Charges
Little Consideration Given
Workers in Codes
international News Service

The NRA has been tolerant to
large industrialists who openly
and apparently successfully" have
defied it's regulations, the House
Labor Committee charged today.
In a bristling report urging
passage of a bill by Chairman
Connery D.) of Massachusetts
granting labor equal representa-
ion on code authorities, the re-
covery agency received its first
formal criticism at the hands Of
O Democratic-controlled congress
sional committee. The report as
serted:
"The workers Of the country
are extremely dissatisfied with
both the Administration and the
enforcement of codes under the
NRA."
RAPS TOLERANCE
The committee said 1t deplored
the tolerance shown big industr1-
alists who have defied the restric-
tions and regulations Of the re-
covery act and questioned the wis
dom of penalizing small industries
while permitting large employers
to continue their defiance OF law
and of the requests Of the Presi'
dent without prosecution. The re"
port continued:
Testimony before the CONS
mittee showed that these codes
are invariably written entirely
by the employers, and little or
NO consideration Is given to the
workers on hours, wages or work.
ing conditions i'm industry"
ASK EQUAL RIGHTS
It suggested that If the codes
are to be continued, one of the
most important remedies for 'this
intolerable situation" would be
equal representation Of labor and
industry on the code authorities.
The committee said:
1--WE believe there will be
fewer evaSiOnS Of the law, with
the result that greater benefits
will accrue to all dependent ON
industry, whether they be Of
management or labor"
Charges that industrial leaders
nouted the monopoly laws for the
purpose of profiteering also were
made. The report stated:
"They have taken advantage
of the suspension of the anti
trust laws to enlarge profits.
Many of them who profited
most have openly refused to co"
operate with the Government
and the recovery act"
The committee concluded the
various codes had brought re-
employment to only 100000 per"
sons and that 100000 indi-
vidualS still were idle.
