BILL IS PROTESTED
TO MMISSIONERS
New Complaints Filed on Pro-
posed Control Over Board
of Education.

The Commissioners today received
a new protest against features of their
bill which would give them control
over the acts Of the Board of Educa-
ton, which already has been opposed
by an overwhelming number of Or
ganiZations.
The new protest came from the
Joint Committee of District Educa-
ton Associations. representing 10
education bodies. A delegation of
spokesmen. headed by E. c. Higbie,
president of the Education Associa-
tion Of the District, and president of
the Wilson Teachers College. said the
Commissioners listened sympatheti-
cally to their arguments. Commis-
sioner Hazen already has announced
he is in favor Of exempting the Board
of Education and the Board of Library
Trustees from the proposed bill to ex-
pand the powers Of the Commissioners
The group objected particularly to
features of the bill which would give
the Commissioners power to veto OF
direct acts of the School Board and
to give the Commissioners power to
issue. deny, suspend or revoke permits
of educational institutions now held
by the Board of Education.
Among groups represented by the
Joint Committee are: The District
Chapter Of the American Association
of Childhood Education, the Junior
High School Teachers Association
the Senior High School Teachers
Association, the Vocational Guidance
Association, and the Columbian Edu.
cational Association.

We are led to believe that the Haupt-
manns are the only people who. after
being recognized, went home sensibly
to bed.
| Dog Refreshed Memory.
Let us get back to this curiously un-
derground Mr.. Kiss, whom we can well
imagine scuttling through subways
and coming up for air just in time
to see Hauptmann. He remembers the
incident well because a dog came
bounding into the bakery that night
(even the dogs were doing it, you see), =,
and with the dog was man who re-
marked to the waitress, Anna, in Ger.
man, that somebody wanted to take
the dog away" This made such an
indelible impression upon Mr.. Kiss
sensitive mind that the whole thing
came back to him in flash last Sum
day when he read testimony in this
trial about Hauptmann walking a
dog, and so he called Mr.. Reilly and
came 10 remington.
As suggestion to those who are
seeking passes to this court room, one
very good way to get in is to have been
In Fredericksen's Bakery on the night
of March l, 1882, and then to call Mr..
Reilly.
The third star witness for the de-
fense turned out to be one August
Marhenke, who changed his name once
| during the war because of anti-Ger-
man feeling in this country, and
changed 1t again when he opened a
bank account, because of family
troubles" He had stopped for gas
on the night of March /, near Fred
ericksen's Bakery, which he seems
with remarkable restraint to have re-
Trained from entering, when he saw
a man with a dog which he thought
he recognized as his. They fell into
conversation, including the exchange
Of names, and Mr.. Marhenke drove
OF to his own affairs, which Mr.. Will
entz promptly proved to have been
the running of a speakeasy and book
making joint, with implications of
other lower pursuits.
Vagabond Takes Stand.
The fourth witness was Lou Hard
ing, ragged, vagabond North Caro-
linian, who testified that two men had
asked him the way to Hopewell on
March l, and that as he talked with
them he observed a ladder In the
back of their station wagon. He ad-
mitted he had been convicted twice,
once on a charge of assault and bat
terry and once for an attack upon a
woman, although he claims the latter
was false conviction.
The fifth and last witness was q
handwriting expert, whom the prose-
cution alleged to be a forger, but
he was not as startling as the others.
Swede, Hungarian, German, Amer
ican, philanderer, bootlegger, book
maker, jailbird-how incongrously like
the old nursery rhyme: "Rich man,
poor man, beggar man, thief, doctor,
lawyer, merchant, chief"
All these have come to this court
IN their various roles, and we have
counted them of as we did the
buttons on our REFERS long ago, but
beyond these terms known to our
laughing childhood, comes now to our
consciousness a sinister echoing
rhythm: "Kidnaper, murderer, cow
ard and thief"

however, has to be averaged down to
40 hours average for the year. How
ever, certain groups have been sub
ject to being worked at such times
.as high as so or 10 hours per week,
without any limitation Of hours. The
modification In this code extension
establishes q principle Of time and

48 hours.
"These are two substantial advances
toward regularization of employment

STRIKE TALK SPREADS.
Fisher and Olds Plants Temporarily
Affected.

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, February 1.-Strike talk
was heard in one Michigan automo-
bile factory today as the industry
began operating under an extension
of its N. r. A. code as amended by
President Roosevelt.
The extension Of the industry's code
through June 16 came as a group
of workers in the Fisher Body Corp. 8
Lansing factory voted a strike against
what they termed "intolerable work
ing conditions" The strike vote was
an aftermath of a walkout by q
small group Of sanders In the Fisher
plant at Lansing Thursday and the
resultant shutdown of both that fac
tory and the Olds Motor Works for
few hours. The Olds plant gets its
supply of automobile bodies from the
Fisher factory.
Comment on the extension Of the
code, with its amendments designed
to spread employment, was not i'm
mediately forthcoming from either
labor or manufacturers spokesmen.

Deficiency
Bill Expected to
Pass House Today

With approval of the second de-
ficiency bill in the House today,
congressional appropriations for
the session will soar above 5000
million dollars.
While the second deficiency bill
usually is the last of the big an
nual money bills, a third measure
is expected because of big authori-
cations now grinding through the
mill.
Congress has cut appropriations
a few million dollars under the
budget estimates submitted by
President Roosevelt, but this rec
ord, which Congress strives an.
nually to maintain, may be shat
tered before the session closes.
Works Relief Biggest
The 1880 million dollar Works
Relief appropriation topped all
the money bills voted this session,
or in prospect.
With the exact amount Of the
second deficiency bill undecided,
other money bills stood at more
than 5000 million dollars, to run
the Government until next July l.
The biggest single money bill
is the Treasury-Post Office supply
bill. 1t carries 9O3 million dollars.

The British minister confirmed
the fact that the Duke of Kent

on the second went trout fishing.
Furthermore, he said, the laws
of the British royal house do not
