NRAB Blue Eagles
Keep Weekday
Ball Title

Although pronounced ineffect-
Ual by the United States Supreme
Court, the NRA Blue Eagle sur
prised a group of Heurich Brew
cry ball players yester6 by ad-
ministering an humiliating 6-1
defeat, and in the same gesture
taking the annual weekday series
championship.
It was Lefty" Stevens who
showed the Brewers that the Su-
preme Court might have been
wrong when it branded the NRA
defunct. There was nothing
"dead collectively" Funk and
Wagnalls) about the NRA on the
South Ellipse diamond yesterday.
In fact, it would seem from
Mr.. Pepco Barry'S base running
and Mr.. Stevens three-hit pitch
ing that the Supreme Court
might have killed their birds be-
fore they were Matched.
The three hits which the Brew
ers amaSSed off Stevens were
made by Everett Russell, himself
q, defunct NRA player; George
Oertel and Bill Shelton. The
NRA made runs in the fourth and
sixth and two each in the eighth
and ninth.
Nine hits were collected off
Brown and, although he was never
hard hit, the Blue Eagles punched
those that they did make in such
Q convenient way as to make no
end of trouble for the Brewers
catcher, Fee" Collier, who was
busy all day trying vainly to tag
scoring Blue Eagles.

there was nothing personal
against Johnson in the investiga-
ton. 1t was simply a question of
sitting the charges to the bottom.
He added, saying:
II fear this may run into
quite an elaborate investigation.
Mitchell is going to be given
every opportunity to present his
charges and views"
The move to summon Mr..
Mitchell and put him under oath
was made by Vanderberg. He
also suggested that Secretary of
Commerce Roper be invited" to
attend the inquiry. The commit
tee supported him unanimously
in this.
, Secretary Roper has sent a let
ter to Copeland offering to supply
the committee with all available
information.
Senator Vandenberg said:
1--WE must go through these
charges carefully. We can't vote
to confirm anyone when we
don't know whether there was
justification for firing Mitchell"
Mr.. Johnson was appointed
Saturday by President Roosevelt.
His confirmation has been blocked
in the Senate since his appoint
ment.
Wheeler Wants Probe
Senator Wheeler CD Of Mon
tana, noted for his part in the
Teapot Dome oil investigation,
was one of the Democrats who
urged that Mr.. MitchelPs asser-
tons be sifted to the bottom, but
Senator Copeland did not disclose
his views. Neither did Senator
Byrnes Cd, of South Carolina,
who Endorsed Mr.. Johnson's ap-
pointment.

State troopers as he kept a rem

local night club.
Mrs. Mildred Rothlisberger, a
divorce, was held without bond
on a charge of harboring crimi-

he was the wanted man, claiming
she knew him as Jimmy John
ston of New York"
Police, however, said they had
watched her home for several
months in the belief he would
visit her.
Di Aoun, claimed by local au-
thoritieS to be worse than Dill

vicinity several days ago. He tele-
phoned Mrs. Rothlisberger and
made date with her. Five police
men gathered around her home,
trailed the couple to the night
club. The orchestra aged

one of the officers beat him to
the draw and fired one shot. Di

and fell dead.

again faces the bar of the justice.

Also on bond are Harry Thomas
and Edwin j. Davis, indicted for
conspiracy to kill Lyddane and
Mrs. Arthur Beall. wife of Mrs.
Lyddane's admitted Jamestown

Following sentence of Boland,
States Attorney James H. Pugh
announced that the State wanted
to continue the other trials, in
Guiding that of Mrs. Lyddane,
until the autumn term. His mo-
ton was approved.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Lyddane prob
ably will remain in practical seclu-
sion to escape the eyes and the
queries of the persons who
thronged the court when she was
on trial last week.
After the jury reviewed the evil
dence and failed to agree on a
verdict concerning her indictment,
she posted $4,000 bond to remain
free until she again goes on trial.
Chief Defense Counsel Stedman
Prescott had no comment to make
concerning Mrs. Lyddanes plans
for the summer
States Attorney Pugh would
not say what indictment he in
tended to use to bring Mrs. Lyd.
dane to trial next November, but
it is expected that she will be
tried on the charge that she So
licited the murder of her husband.
With the Lyddane case tempo
rarily shelved, Rockville turned it's
attention to other matters today.
Women who have occupied the
court listening to testimony
against Mrs. Lyddane went back
to their household and office
duties. The farmers, including
several members of the jury, re-
turned to the pillow.
Rockville settled down to ap-
parent peace until November. AND
Mrs. Lyddane and her husband
went home to await the time when
her next trial again stirs the town.

Close check by Federal statisti-
cal forces on every phase Of the
four-billion-dollar works relief pro
gram was ordered by Harry L.
Hopkins, head of the works prog
ress branch, before the assembled
State works progress directors to-
day.
For tab-keeping purposes the
country was divided into 10 areas
of from three to seven States in
size. Each area will cover from
100000 to $4,000 persons on re-
lief.
Check Up on Data
Checking of all data relating to
the work progress will be done
through statistical offices in these
areas, manned by statistical
stats, supplemented by clerical
employees selected from relief rolls.
These offices will be within IL
hours railway or air mail distance
of their central work progress
office. Hopkins ordered:
"A record will be maintained
by project. This will be required
for administrative control and
for engineering and statistical
use. 1t will cover employment,

.OLD-AGE BILL
B A 7 7 Il
His Plan to LiberaIize Pension
Liked, But Administration
Fights Any Change
international News Service


Predicting a favorable vote be.
fore nightfall, Senate leaders to-
day battled lively opposition to
President Roosevelt's social Sc.
curity bill.
The opposition is directed not
so much at defeating the bill as
amending 1t to scale old-age pen
sions upward and make liberaliz.
ing changes. Senator Borah (R.)
Of Idaho led this move, submit.
ting an amendment to provide
Federal old-age pensions in States
unable to match Federal money
as compelled under the bill.
Three Main Issues
Senator Smith CD of South
Carolina, bitter foe of the pro-
gram, Is one Of the few who be.
lieyes the opposition has a chance
of winning adoption of their
amendments. The three major
proposals are:
l. The Borah proposal.
2. An amendment offered by
Senator Clark CD Of Missouri
exempting from the bills opera
ton individual old-age pension
systems such as those now
operated by some large business
organizations, when such SyS-
TENS paid benefits equal to
those proposed in the bill.
3. The amendment inserted
by the Finance Committee pro-
viding for voluntary Federal
annuities. Opponents charge
enactment of this would put
the Government in direct COM
petition with private insurance
companies.
BOrah Plan Most Popular
OF all these, the Borah pro-
posal promised to give the most
trouble. It would allow the Fed
eral Government to provide old
age pensions sufficient to bring
the total to $50 a month, even
when the State is able to provide
only 81 of this monthly. In cases
where the State did not provide
any money at all, the Federal
Government would not provide
any either.
Thus far the Administration
has defeated all attempts to
change it's bill. notably Senator
Huey P. Longs effort to attach
his wealth program,
and the amendment sponsored by
Senator Vandenberg (RO of
Michigan to permit tariff in
creases to equalize the increased
production costs under the social
security program.
