WIRES, FEAR

Wire-PuIIing Keeps Capitol
Phones Busy; Cummings
Refuses Any Comment

Silence on the surface and
maneuverings beneath the sur
face marked the official reaction
today to the blasting report of
the House crime committee de-
handing cleanout Of police
heads and the district attorneys
office as a necessary prerequisite
of law enforcement in Wash
ington.
There was much telephoning to
the Capitol by the officials hit
by the report. The political wires
were kept hot most of the day.
Wires Kept Busy
The conversations began yes
terday when the committees rec
concentrations were made public.
They continued today as the Off
Gals affected sought to save their
jobs by rounding up friends in
high places.
There were reports that citi-
zens' associations and other civic
organizations would also be asked
to pass resolutions of confidence
in District Attorney Leslie C.
Garrett, Assistant District At
torney Karl Kindleberger, Major
Ernest w. Brown and others at
whom the committee aimed its
guns.
But beyond these developments
there was silence in official cir
cles, or a Suave "nothing-to-Say''
attitude, as the campaigning to
counterfeit the effect of the re-
port went on under cover.
Prefers to Wait

Cummings said he would not com

CONDEMNS
NEW DEAL
Presidents Policies Bitterly
AssaiIed in Resolutions
Adopted at Meeting
International News Service

Organized business as repre-
Sented by the United States
Chamber of Commerce, slapped
the Administration today in a
series of singing resolutions con-
demning the major portion OF
President RooSevelt'S New Deal
program.
And, significantly enough, at
the very moment the Chambers
annual convention was Whooping
through the resolutions, James A.
Farley. Postmaster General and
Democratic National Chairman,
predicted that in the campaign
of 1886 "big business will do
everything it can to defeat us"
He said:
-. "Big business has never been
with us, anyway. They didn't
let out any cheers from the
81 hOusetOps when we were elected
in '32."
Policies Slammed
Virtually the whole range OF
Rooseveltian policies came in for a
slamming at the hands of business
leaders gathered here in the
twenty-third annual convention OF
the chamber. The NRA, the AAA,
the Administrations monetary
policies, it's enormous expenditures,
the lack of a balanced budget, and
Government interference in bust
ness" generally, were harshly
criticized in speeches and in the
ensuing resolutions.
The temper of the gathering has
been famed by the almost un,
broken chain of speeches con-
demning various parts of the New
Deal, and further by what many of
the convention leaders considered
a slight" by the White House.
President Roosevelt had been in
vited to attend the chambers an
nual banquet last night. He de-
clined. The reason advanced by
the White House was that he had
just addressed the country over
the radio Sunday night with a
comprehensive review of Admins,
tration policies. And he felt he
had nothing more to add. Also, it
was explained, Mr.. Roosevelt was
busily occupied with plans for the

Great Britain today appealed
to Germany to join an interna-
tional peace settlement at almost
the exact moment Germany was
proclaiming her new air force the
best in the world and ready to
fight with trigger-action speed.
While Gen. Hermann Wilhelm
Goering, Reich air minister. was
announcing in a forceful speech
in Berlin that Germany's air
force was second to none in quail
ity and power, Prime Minister j.
Ramsay Macdonald took the
floor of the British House Of
Commons to announce officially
expansion of British naval air
forces to meet Germany's re-
armament.
Macdonald urged a new agree
ment to Supplant the arms re-
strictions Of the battered Yer
sailles treaty, and asked Germany
to come home and help restore
the international confidence so
rudely shaken by her recent
moves.
LONDON, May 2 U.N.S0.
Most of the danger to peace in
Europe could be removed if an

Launching the arms debate

ton of February 3 which aimed
at conclusion of new ornaments

Purpose Stated
The original design, he said,
was to obtain German collabora-

supplant the Versailles arms

TRAGEDY LAID
TOJEALOUSY
AND MANY
QUARRELS
Carroll N. House, Twice Cited
for VaIor, Shot to Death by
Miss Bessie Carter

:, Jealousy turned into stark
tragedy today when a young
woman employee of a Washington
restaurant chain opened fire on
her policeman sweetheart, in
flicting wounds which caused his
death a few minues later. She
then turned the gun on herself,
instantly dying as a bullet
crashed through her heart.
The dead in the double trag-
edy, which occurred in the 600
block Park Rd. N. W., shortly
after 6 o'clock this morning, are
Miss Bessie Carter, 80, and Po-
liceman Carroll N. House, 3S, OF
the Tenth Precinct.
They had been going together
for some time, friends said, and
both were roomers in the Park
Road address, said to be owned
by George N. Grant, cousin OF
the dead man.
Leaves No Notes
No notes were found to explain
the act and other roomers in the
house heard no quarreling or
other sound until the gun barked
its death message.
Policeman House, who was
scheduled to report for duty at
z q. m. to go out in radio
scout car, was in the bathroom
shaving when Miss Garter walked
down the hallway, an automatic
pistol in her hand.
Standing in the doorway, she
raised the gun and fired five shots
at the policeman, three of them
taking effect. AS he slumped to
the floor she placed the weapon
against her heart and pulled the
trigger once more. Only the one
shot was necessary.
Other occupants of the house,
awakened by the shots, hurried to
the room. Policeman House was
still breathing and an ambulance
was summoned. He died, how
ever, before reaching Garfield Hos
pital.
House Divorced
House, who was the father of
two children, was separated from
his family, but his associates on
the police force said they knew OF
no divorce.
Miss Carter came here from
Culpeper, Va, several years ago
and was employed as q Stenogra-
pher and clerk in the office of
the restaurant chain. At her office
it was said she had left early
yesterday, saying she felt badly
and was going home.
Coroner A. Magruder MacDon-
aid, summoned to the scene, said
he had been informed that Miss
Carter was extremely jealous of
the policeman and that recently
they had quarreled so much that
Miss Carter had been asked to
move from the place by the
Grants. Coroner Macdonald is
sued a certificate of murder and
suicide.
Both Miss Carter and the slain
officer had lived in the Park Road
house about year. The police
man occupied a room at the front
of the house and Miss Carter one
at the rear.
