GIRL, 4, SAVED
IN BOAT FIRE

ANNAPOLIS, Md, June 90.
Anna Louise Horney, four.year-old
daughter of Lieut.. H. R. Horney,
naval aviator, was saved today
from flames of a burning boat
and later from drowning by Cox
swim Alton F. Smith Of the en-
listed personnel attached to the
retaining ship Reina Mercedes at
the Naval Academy.
The child had accompanied her
father when he reported for duty
and was standing on the Reina
Mercedes dock when Smith got
into the aviation crash boat Duke
to warm up the engine. She
climbed in with him and as he
started the motor an explosion
occurred and the man and child
were swept with flames. The sailor
tossed the child into the water
and leaped in after her.
She was able to keep herself
afloat until the sailor reached her
and bystanders assisted them to
the dock.
The sailor was treated for burns
of the hand and the girl for
burns about the face, hands, arms
and legs. Her condition is not
serious.

FRIEND To LASH
. WIFE BEATER

SNOW HILL, Md, June %.
For the first time in 20 years, a
man has been sentenced to be
dashed for wife.beating here.
A sentence of 20 lashes was i'm.
posed on Edward Dryden, of Snow
Hill, by A. Fred Hartman, justice
of the peace, reviving a law so
long unused it had virtually been
forgotten.
Hartman was also sentenced to
six months in jail, while his son,
Clarence, %, who is accused of
helping beat his own mother, was
given a similar jail sentence.
The instructions Of Magistrate
Hartman specify that Sheriff
Ernest West, of Worcester county,
personally administer the lashes.
Mr.. West has been friendly with
Dryden since they were boys.
Twenty years ago, Sheriff West
remembered, laShes were inflicted
for wife beating. Because there
Is no whipping post, the culprits
were tied to the bars of cell.
This will probably be done in the
Dryden case.
Date Of the whipping has not
been set, pending a conference
between the sheriff and States
Attorney Thomas johnson to-
day on whether a justice Of the
peace has the legal right to ad-
minister such punishment.

COAL WALKOUT
DEPENDS ON
PRESIDENT
International News Service

International News service
Intervention of President Roose-
welt alone will prevent a nation
wide strike in the bituminous coal
fields on Monday, involving $780,
900 workers.
This development appeared to-
day when a subcommittee OF
miners and operators reported to
the joint wage conference for the
Appalachian region that it was
unable to agree on questions of
wages, hours and differentialS.
The strike call issued by John
L. Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers, two weeks ago for
a cessation of operations on June
80, has not been reScinded.
The operators are still Of the
opinion there will be no nation
wide cessation Of operations Mon
day. They base this on the fact
that Congress Is now debating the
bituminouS coal bill Of Senator
Gutfey CD of Pennsylvania.
In the wage conference the
miners have demanded a work
week of 80 hours, with a basic
daily wage of $3.50. The opera
tors are holding out for 35-hour
week, with a IS wage. The terms
of the contract which expired
April l had been continued until
Sunday night through the inter-
vention of the old NRA officials
and the White House.
Meantime, a House Ways and
Means subcommittee had ended
hearings on the Guffey-Snyder
bill. It will attempt to revise the
bill in time for presentation to the
full committee early next week.
Plans of House leaders called for
committee action before hearings
are opened on the new tax pro-
gram on July 8.

L. Lewis, Of the United Mine
Workers of America, and c. H.

ACE BILL FACES
* REVISION BY
CONFEREES
BY EDWARD B. LOCKETT
international News Service


A brisk battle over Senate
amendments to President Roose-
velt's social security legislation de-
veloped today.
The bill is in conference.-the
Is, 1t has been passed by both
Houses, and the two drafts are
not identical. Representatives Of
the Senate and House, five OF
each, are engaged in the work Of
ironing out the differences.
Conferees will meet on Monday
In an attempt to smooth out the
wrinkles. They may be able to
get together at this meeting-and
they may not.
Clark Provisions
Most of the controversy lies in
the provision inserted by Senator
Clark CD, of Missouri. This per-
mits existing commercial old-age
pension systems to continue in
operation, and exempts the COM
panies involved from the Federal
tax which would otherwise be ex-
acted as their portion Of the Fed
eral system. .
This amendment was defeated
when the legislation was being
considered by the Senate Finance
Committee, but only because a tie
vote fails to carry a motion. When
the bill came to the Senate, the
Clark amendment was inserted.
Senator Harrison Cd, of Mis-
sissippi, and chairman Of the
Finance Committee, thus heading
the Democratic conferees, doesn't
like it, for one.
FavOrS Young Men
Opponents of the provision say
they fear it will mean existing
commercial pension systems now
operating under higher pension
standards than those proposed by
the Federal Government, will drop
their standards down.
Then, they say, the private or.
CARNATIONS could employ young
men only, and thus avoid the
heavy overhead cost Of the pen.

Setup.
Democratic leaders privately
predicted the provision would be
eliminated in the conference re-
port that will be brought in for
approval of the two houses after
their representatives conclude de.
alterations.

To Vote for Regulation,
Not Death of Companies

He said he would vote for the House bill, as it
brought regulation rather than death to holding
groups Final House vote is expected next week.
Then slashing at the Senate bill for outright ruin
of holding companies, he said it was "THE FINEST
DEMAGOGIC BAIT THAT WAS EVER SPREAD"
The Government has built up strong sentiment
against utilities, he said, explaining:
"They whipped the country into rage. They
formed public opinion, especially among those who
had the least information. They caused this public
opinion to reach fever heat
"Demagogues saw their opportunity and ag-
tators saw the time was ripe for them, so like
eagles riding the storm, they mounted upon this
wave Of ill will and public opinion against the uti
ties. They are riding it right down to this time"
"This was the finest bait that was ever spread,
because they not only get chance to soak the rich
and fan the prejudices of the poor against those
who happen to have held on to stray nickel, but
they draw around themselves the cloak of patr-
otism-T am the defender of the people,"
The Washington times., 1935-06-29

Urging his Democratic colleagues to follow their
1882 platform, he said:
"What is the issue on this bill? In few Words
the issue is whether you will regulate or whether
you will destroy. My position now, is and has been
from the very inception of this legislation that the
utility holding companies should be regulated
sharply and rigidly regulated.
II have some authority for that position. l turn
to the Democratic platform of 1882:
"'We advocate regulation, to the full extent, of
Federal power of holding companies which sell
securities in interstate commerce.
upon that plank stand. However, It says reg
ulate, not destroy. Those who advocate destruc-
ton cannot quarrel with me for my Democracy
NO DEMOCRAT CAN FIND FAULT WITH ME
FOR STANDING UPON THE DEMOCRATIC
PLATFORM OF 1892 Socialists, radicals, what
nots of whatever stripe, they have right to
quarrel"
Mr. Huddleston's bristing speech gave powerful
support to opponents of New Dealers efforts to de-
stroy holding companies. Ranking Democrat on
the Interstate Commerce Committee in charge of
the bill, Mr.. Huddeston marsha[ed arguments to
show destruction of the companies would be ODE
TO BUSINESS, AND RETARD
RECOVERY"
Loud laughter greeted his sarcastic charge that:
1.-TWO bright young men, Ben Cohen and Thomas
COrcOran, we're brought down here from New York
to teach Congress how to shoot"
