Report Public Works Program Will
Employ $4,000 Men In Production
Steel And Iron For An Entire Year

WASHINGTON, May 81. CUP
The first authoritative hint of the
extent of indirect employment
created by the public works pro-
gram was made last night to Sec
rotary of the Interior Harold L..
Ickes in a report from the bureau
of labor statistics showing that
$50, 100000 hours of employment
were given workers in mines, mills
and factories producing steel and
iron for public works projects.
At 40 hours week, this would
nrovide steady work for $4,000
men for one year.
Two other reports bearing on
the business situation were made
simultaneously:
1 The federal reserve board, Ill
re monthly survey, found that en-
nloyment and payrolls held their
gains in April despite a setback in
business activity. Little change
was predicted for the next few
months in business activity, until
fine full effect of the 100000
GOD work-relief program is felt.
But BY fall, officials predicted,
money will be pouring into pay
envelopes and boosting orders Tor

POMBA FALLS
ON LAST LEG
OF HIS FLIGHT
21-Year-Old Solo Flyer of
Atlantic Unhurt;
Plane Wrecked
ROMANTIC TRIP FOR
BRIDE WILL CONTINUE

NATAL, Brazil, May 81. (UP).
Juan Ignacio Pombo, youthful
Spanish filler who spanned the
Atlantic on romantic flight to-
ward Mexico City and his sweet
heart, crashed at Camocim, in
Cera state, northwest of here
Sunday.
The 21-year old flier, whose
daring feat in a small, single
motored plane captured the imi-
gination of the world last week,
was unhurt, but his plane was
reported demolished.
Pomo took off here at 5 40 a.
m. for Belem, 1000 miles north
west of Natal, the next leg of
his flight to Mexico and the al
tar.
He gas unreported for several
hours, until the flash from Ca
mocim, about 425 miles up the
Brazilian coast, and nearly half
way to Belem, on the Para river.
His sweetheart, 19-year- old
Senorita Maria Elena Rivero
Corral, awaited young Pombo in
Mexico-but it appeared his jour
ney will have to be completed by
Prosaic steamer and railways.
Pombo's monoplane was named
Santander, after his home town.
He succeeded in at least two of
his PROJECTS, despite the, crash
to be the youngest flier TO fly
solo across the Atlantic and to
bring world publicity to his own
home town.
He was given tremendous
welcome on arriving, in Natal
from Bathurst, British West
Africa, last week, and Spanish
colonies all along the coast plan
ned ovations. A throng waited
at Belem.
A message from Para, North
ern Brazil, said Pomo telegraph
ed the Spanish consul there it
would be Impossible to repair his
plane.
Pombo halted at Camocim for
repairs to his gasoline feed line.
The field was not large and
Pombo attempted in resuming his
flight to get into the air quickly
at great speed. The undercar'
riage struck a fence, however,
and the aviator was shot out of
the plane, landing feet first and
somesaulting. The only part of
the plane which can be salvaged
is the motor.

2. The farm credit administra-
ton, which celebrates it's second
birthday today, reported having
loaned almost $4,000, 000,000-an
average of over 100000 day
since organization. Farmers
used $1,544, 100000 of it to pay
debts to commercial banks, insur-
ance companies, joint stock land
banks and other creditors and to
pay state and county taxes. The
number of farmers now applying
for emergency refinancing is less
than Is per cent of what it was at
the peak of the fall of 1888.
Although the theory of public
works as an employment stimulant
is based on the indirect work Gre
ated, little information has been
available on the subject. Conse-
ouently the bureau of labor stats.
tics started out to study it. A pre-.
liminary report to Ickes covered
only iron and steel. Other reports
are in prospect.

WHEAT REGION
FARMERS VOTE
FOR AAA RULE
Republican Kansas Joins
Other States Favoring
Continuation
SENTIMENT STRONG
FOR CROP CONTROL

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 81.
(UP).-Wheat growers voted an
overwhelming "yes" for continue
ton of the AAA crop control plan
in a referendum conducted Satur-
day in all important wheat raising
states, incomplete returns indicat-
ed today.
An unofficial tabulation showed
117,625 ballots in favor of acre
age reduction and benefit pay
ments and 1857 opposed.
In Republican Kansas, where
bitterest criticism of the admins
tration's farm program has arisen,
the farmers who produce the bulk
of the domestic wheat supply
voted just as heavily for the plan
as in other states.
Tabulations up until midnight
Saturday showed 100 out of Kan
sas' 105 counties to have balloted
1926 Eyes" to 1916 "no."
Ballots in most counties in the
other states were not being count
ed until Monday.
The ballots in Pacific coast
states were not being counted I'M
til today in general, but in Ore
gon preliminary tabulations show
ed a z to 1 ratio in favor of the
crop control plan.
Farmers who participated in
crop reduction plans of the past
two years voted yes in greater
proportion than those who re-
manned outside the AAA control.
Both groups favored the plan in
practically every county, however.
Kansas farmers who favored
the plan received more than $4O,-
100000 in benefit payments last
year.
AAA officials were jubilant over
the vote, hailing it as proof that
their efforts had greatly bettered
the farmers status. Every farm
err who raised wheat during the

FRAZIER. LEMKE ACT
ALSO RULED OUT

WASHINGTON, May II. (UP)
The United States supreme court
today held the Fra.ier.Lemke
farm mortgage moratorium act in.
valid a. a violation of the federal
constitution.
The law was passed at the close
of the 73rd congress. II provided
that federal court machinery
should seals down farm debts and
halt foreclosure of farm mort.
cages.
The case was decided in an ap-
peal brought by the Louisville
Joint Stock Land Bank against
William w. Radford, Sr., Ken
lucky farm owner.
The courts opinion, handed
down by Justice Louis D. Bran
deis, held that the law violated the
constitution by taking away the
rights of mortgage holders.
The act was sponsored by Sen
ator Lynn j. Frazier and Repre-.
sentative William Lemke, both Re-
publicans, of North. Dakota, and
was denounced as unconstitutional
by many at the time of passage.
President Roosevelt kept the
measure on his desk until the last
day he could sign it and then did
so. The act provided that when. a
farmer was threatened with fore
closure he could appeal to the fed
eral court which could have the
property valued by appraisers
from the area where it was stu
ated. The farmer then could re-
main on it for five years, paying
a fixed rent and could regain his
property at any time by payment
of the mortgage.

AT FILLING STATION HERE
Unconscious Almost an
Hour After Second Blow
on Head; Loses $40


Prince Annette, operator of the
Shell filing station on the Ashe-
vile highway at Druid Hills, was
slugged and bound and robbed of
about $50 in cash last night about

Mr.. Annette said this morning
that the men parked their car be-
yond his station in the direction
of Asheville, and that one of them
came into the station and said he
was out of gas. He asked for a
can to carry gas to his car and,
when Mr.. Annette went into a
room at the rear of the station
the man followed him and covered
him with a gun.
He told Mr.. Annette to put the
can down but not to drop it, and
as he stopped to put down the can
the man struck him on the head
with the pistol. The first blow,
Mr.. Annette said, did not knock
him out, but as he attempted 10
grapple with the man he was
struck on the temple and knocked
out.
Mr.. Annette said that he was
unconscious for about as minutes
and was discovered by Marion
Constant, who came to visit him.
He had been securely bound hand

robbed of $40. He somewhat re-
gained consciousness when his
bonds were cut by Mr.. Constant
but was unable to give coherent
story last night tp Sheriff M. N.
Orr, who was notified and imme-
diately started an investigation.
Mr.. Annette said that he got
good lopk4at onlylone of the men
and did not see their car as it was
marked beyond the filling station.
