wage schedule for the
time being.
Senator Huey Long of Louis
lana is credited with a good share
in the outSmarting of Senator
Joseph Robinson of Arkansas,
Democratic floor leader. BY this
move Senator Long now puts "a
notch in his gun which he can
show to labor leaders if he ever
needs their support in future ma
tional politics. At the same time
Senator Long, radical left winger,
also found himself supported by
81 Republican Senators who ordi-
narily would have voted as far
away from his views as they
could get.
1t is understood that the Re
publican Senators who voted for
the McCarran amendment did so
because they believed they could
embarasS the President rather
than because they are friendly
to labor leaders and the labor
lobby and the argument that the
highest union wages must be paid
on the work program.
G. o. p. Vote Massed
The Republicans bulked their
votes when the threat was made
that the President would veto
the measure. They figured that
the success of the McCarran
amendmept would kill the pro
gram and put the Administration
in a hole.
There was considerable agita-
ton, even among his OF n leaders,
to abandon the Presidents work
program and continue the dole for
another year. The principal argu-
ment siVanced for this subStitu-
tion was that the dole would give
the same relief but cost the tax
pareS only half the expenditures
OF a work relief program.
Four alternative proposals were
before the committee, along with
the Roosevelt and McCarran
plans.

RAIL CONTROL

EASTMAN OK.
Coordinator Urges Senate
To Pass Bill for Bus and
Truck Regulation

New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railway ownership Of
water carriers off the New Eng
land seaboard serves the public
interest better than would sepa-
rate ownership of the two sys-
TENS, Federal Transportation Co.
ordinator Joseph B. Eastman
told the Senate Interstate Com
merce Committee today.
Appearing in support Of Ad-
ministration legislation for Fed
eral regulation of motor, air and
water carrier as we'll as railroads,
Mr.. Eastman praised operation
of the New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad water car
rier system.
He said the railroad was per-
mitted to retain control of the
water CARRIERS along the coast
because shippers insisted on it.
Mr.. Eastman said enactment
of the regulatory legislation was
imperative to bring order out Of
a chaotic tangle existing now.
He explained that the legisla-
ton proposed to give the Inter.
state Commerce Commission SUBJ
stantially the same power to
regulate busses and trucks that
it now has over railroads.
All forms of transportation
have increased enormously in re.
cent years, said the coordinator,
and consequently there is today
an oversupply of facilities. Un.
regulated competition, running
wild" will serve no good end,

D. c. PREPARES
FOR WIDENING
OFFSTREET
Plans for RemodeIing old
Patent Office Approved;
Work Starts Soon

With the approval of archi-
tectural plans for remodeling the
old Patent office, occupying the
two blocks from F to G and
from Seventh to Ninth Streets,
Northwest, District authorities
and the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission were
getting ready today to go ahead
with the job and simultaneously
widen F Street to take out the
"kink" caused by the projection
Of the south steps as originally
built.
Three other entrances to the
building will be open during the
remodeling, and the work of the
Civil Service Commission and a
part Of the General Accounting
Office, it's two tenants, will not
be disturbed.
Plans Approved
Approval was given by the Fine
Arts Commission Saturday to the
design of William T. Partridge, of
Washington, architectural consul
tant, for the change in the south
steps.
The change will make it posi-.
BILE to widen F. Street 80 feet in
the two blocks from Seventh to
Ninth, taking out most Of the ir-
regularity in the street line, which
has been a hindrance to traffic
for many years.
It was said today that bids for
the work would be asked at once.
Funds for remodeling the building
at an estimated cost of 100000
have been provided by the Public
Works Administration.
Built in 184O
The Patent Office Building, 403
feet long and 274 feet wide, with
great doric columns guarding it's
main entrance, is the most i'm
pressive of the earlier Federal
buildings erected in the Capital.
The original, or F. Street wing,
was finished in 1840, the east
wing in 1852, the west wing in
1856, and the north wing in 1857.
In 1877 a disastrous fire on
the third floor of the Ninth and
G Street wing destroyed many
records and models.
When the new Department Of
Commerce Building was completed
the Patent Office was moved into
that structure.

Claude Reese, Prince Georges
policeman, described the finding
as follows:
1--WE were driving along the
highway to start a systematic
search Of the area around the
White House Tavern, where
they were reported to have been
seen last night.
Suddenly we saw them walk
haRd in hand out Of the pine
woods. We knew they were the
youngsters we were looking
for"
It was shortly after 4 o'clock
yesterday when the parents, with
their two other children, Samuel
D., II, and George F., jr., H.
prepared to "break camp" and re-
turn to washington after an
afternoon outing. BY a prear
ranged signal, the twins were to
return to the family automobile
parked on side road, when Mr.
Miller whistled and blew the CAT
horn.
When they did not return the
family started a search and were
joined by Carl Schaeffer, who
lives in a nearby farm house
When they had not been found by
6 o'clock, Mr.. Miller called upon

Grave fear was held for the
safety of the twins throughout
the night, authorities fearing they
would perish from exposure OF

Many persons from Washington

PITTSBURGH, Feb. IS GNS0.
Former Secretary Of the Treasury
Andrew w. Mellon possessed large
holdings of tax-free bonds but re-
ported no earnings from them in
his income tax returns, his conf.
dental secretary, Howard M.
johnson, admitted before the
United States Board Of Tax Ap-
peals here today.
This disclosure came when
Government Counsel Robert H.
Jackson renewed his cross-exami'
nation of the witness in the three
million dollar case. Claiming he
overpaid on his 1881 income, Mr..
Mellon seeks refund of $139 ,045,
while the Government wants So

penalties.
Sales dictated"
Mr.. johnson also revealed that
Mr.. Mellon, during his term as
a Cabinet member and later as
Ambassador to the Court Of st.
James, dictated the policy for
sales and purchases OF stocks.
Mr.. Jackson asked:
"Making his own policies was
always reserved BY Mr.. Mellon
IS his own right"
: always"
: After Mr.. johnson admitted the
financier owned number Of tax
free municipal bonds, Mr.. Jack
son inquired if they were listed on
: income tax returns. Mr.. johnson
replied:
"These were not taxable and
were not asked for"
Government counsel then learned
that Mr.. Melons sale Of his bank
stocks to his brother, the late
Richard B. Mellon, was not in
cluded in the bankers tax report.
Mr.. Jackson contends this was not
a sale in good faith but that
Richard merely took the stocks so
that Andrew could qualify for the
cabinet post.

Drivers Ordered
to Wear Helmets
Auto Race Officials Work
Toward Safety.

bU lm6S SpeCidt
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Safety
crash helmets will be compulsory
equipment for automobile racing
drivers beginning April /, it was an
nourced here last night at nation
al headquarters of the Contest
Board of the American Automobile
Association. This edict is the latest
move of the sports national govern
ing body toward safer competition
on the nations SpeedwayS.
The crash helmet is made Of
compositions which are light and
comfortable, yet unbreakable, and
is linked with a shock absorbing
rubber headpiece. The helmet was
introduced to racing in the United
States some years ago by the late
Maj. H. o. D. Segrave.
The first American driver to wear
the crash helmet was Wilbur Shaw
who in 1888 drove in the 500-mile
International Sweepstakes at Indian
apolis. In the 1884 indianapolis
classic a number of drivers wore
them, but the new ruling of the
contest board will require every
one Of the 80 starters in the 900"
next May 80 to have the safety he'll
met. The edict also extends to the
dirt tracks.
A survey made by the contest
board and experiments conducted
reveal that the crash helmet greatly
lessons fatalities in case of acct
dent.
