DISCRIMINATION" SEEN
IN ELECTRIC CHARGES
Roberts Asks Utility Board to Set
Standard Price for Rooming
Houses.

Charging that gross discrimina-
lions" now exist as to electric rates
charged to different rooming house
proprietors, Peoples Counsel William
A. Roberts yesterday urged the Public
Utilities Commission to fix and en-
force a standard rule.
Roberts complained the Potomac
Electric Power Co. now is left to use
its own discretion in assessing either
the residential schedule "A" or the
commercial rate "D"-that some have
one and some the other.
He suggested that where rooming
house proprietor has accommodations
for 10 or more persons not members
of his family, the commercial or
higher schedule be the rule and that
for those with fewer accommodate
the residential rate. He based this
on the District license act for rooming
houses, which applies to those places
where there are accommodat for
10 or more persons.
The rate should be uniform, at all
odds, he insisted. He explained that
the residential rate starts at SO cents
per kiloWatt and runs down to is as
consumption increases, whereas the
commercial rate, while starting at 3.8
cents, drops only to 2 cents for use Of
$3.50 or more kilowatts.

JURY ASKS PROBE
OF PLANE CRASH
Federal Agency Is Urged
to Study Alleged
Negligence.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MACON, Mo, May 9.-The extended
inquiry of a small-town coroner's jury
into the crash of a T. w. A. airliner
today brought demands from the body
that the Department Of Commerce
make a full and complete investiga-
ton of the probable technical causes"
of the accident which resulted in five
deaths.
While the Federal agency made
plans to open its inquiry, physicians
abandoned hopes for the life of Paul
Wing, Hollywood, one of the eight
survivors. Wing, the father of Toby
Wing, the actress. suffered severe chest
Injuries when the fog-bound Sky
Chief crashed near here Monday
morning. All the others were reported
improving.
Pilot Blamed.
The jury after questioning 20 wit
nesses found that "the pilot was flying
said plane too close to the ground
without turning on the landing lights
with which said airplane was equip
ped"
Marvel H. Davis, World War flyer
and attorney for the airline. demanded
that the accusation of negligence" be
lifted from the dead pilot, Harvey Boil
ton. He contended the landing lights
were in operation few minutes before
the monoplane crashed. The jury re-
fused to make the revision.
I'VE are not going to change that
verdict any more" declared one of the
Jurors, Charles Fower, himself an
aviator.
Two hours after the verdict was re-
turned the word accidental" was in
serted at Davis suggestion that State
statutes required the description "acci-
dent" or felony" in coroner's reports.
The verdict then read that the five
died by reason of the accidental
crash of airplane No. 1923 OF the T.
w. A. company.
May Strike Word.
Later, however, Fower said he had
been informed by counsel that such a
description was not necessary and that
he probably would request that the
word be stricken from the verdict.
The Jury was called into session
again today to complete its record.
This included the listing of those who
found the dead and the injured who
died-Senator Bronson Cutting Of New
Mexico, the two pilots and two woman
passengers:
Testimony before the jury showed
that the planes radio equipment was
not working properly when it headed
into the fog near Kansas City.
A preliminary meeting to determine
where to hold the Department of Com
merce inquiry was scheduled for today
at Kansas City.

Why Men Like the Modern
Business Girl:
Because she does not get on
their nerves, does not ask unnec-
essary questions and, above all,
does not try to use Sex-appeal
around the office.
Because she is calm, collected
and serene-without being hard
boiled.
Because a man can take her out
to lunch or dinner, without the
fear Of being vamped, ogled, jol-
lied or cajoled.
Because she never stages a
scene or goes in for emotional
appeal" during office hours.
Because she always wears smart
clothes, but does not come around
the office deluged with ipstick,
Haunting bare arms and teetering
on four-inch heels.

Down the banniSterS slid the
little girl, coming to disastrous
fall. An old gypsy picked her up
and, consoling her, said: Don't
cry, child! You are not hurt.
Why. you will grow up to be a
queen and will live 100 years."
Two decades passed and she
was a queen. Eighty-odd years
rolled by and they laid her to rest
at the age of 81.
In France today they are gather

France. Paris of 1850 knew her
as the most beautiful woman in

young woman, who, with her
mother, would not stop until she
was the wife of the Emperor.

Jealousy and scandal surrounded

There are other racketS, equally

RETURNING sOLONs

Although a few members Of
Congress are drifting into Wash
lngton, it is expected that the
real trek will follow the return
Of Vice President Garner and
Speaker Joseph w. ByrnS.
On their way back from the
Oriental voyage that took them
to the Philippines and Japan,
the congressional corps is ex-
pected to reach Seattle about
December Is.
Reports are that many men,
bers of the party will entrain
for their homes so as to stop
over for the Christmas holidays
before returning for the opening
of Congress on January 3.
Vice President Garner and
Speaker Byrns. however, are eX'
pected to travel directly to Wash
ington.
It is said that they wish to be
on hand a few days before the
scheduled opening Of the session
in order to plan the legislative
program as much as possible.
Off on their oriental jaunt they
have been unable to maintain
their customary contacts with the
White House and it is understood
the President wishes to talk the
Situation over with his Congres-
sional aides before Senate and
House swing into action.

returning to the Senate when

to wonder exactly what he means.
There is one group which be-
lieves Norris will retire definitely
A second believes he may run
as an independent.
A third contends that the Demo
Gratis will nominate him whether
he seeks the nomination or not.
The majority opinion, however,
is that if Norris returns ne WILL

Senator Norris is "a years old.
Should he serve another six
wears it would take him to the age
of 80, an age when most men
have long since retired from the
hubbub of the Senate and perhaps
of even more.
Should he retire in that six
years, the indication is that MS
appointed successor would be a
Democrat. Gov. Roy L. Cochran,
of Nebraska, probably would as

At the present, Norris can have
much to do with the selection OF
his successor if he chooses to enter

Smitte1 as he was, a subtle ma
neuver would make him still more
so, would throw him at Eugenie's
feet"
On December 2, 1852, Louis
was acclaimed Emperor and on
the 3lSt of that month held
court in the Tuileries. Eugene
was inSulted by one of the ladies
and she made the most Of it.
She put on such a snow Of emo
ton that, then and there, Louis
promised to marry her and. de-
spite the urging of his family
that he marry a princess, he kept
his promise and subsequently lost
his throne.
Had he married into one Of the
reigning houses, he might have
avoided the Franco-FrusSian War,
or, at least, have had an ally in
that conflict which might have
changed the result.
In his biography, Napoleon
and Eugenie," E. A. Rheinhardt
says that it was Eugenie's inordi-
nate ambition and her utter igno-
rance of the most vital problems
of state and society that forced
her husband to enter unwillingly
the war of 1870.
"She had wished to eliminate
Napoleon, who had had his period
OF popularity, and had forced him,
after the failures in her war, to
stay with the army. where, for all
his powerleSSneSS, he would have
to bear the responsibility Of any
further defeats. When faced with
the last grave issues, something
like a moments Self-abnegation
cleaned through her egoistic fem

cent of Marie Antoinette."
TRAGIC FIGURE
The fact is that she just
escaped the fate of Marie Antoi-
nette when, after Sedan, the
people Of France rose in anger
and rid themselves again Of the
monarchy.
An American, DR.. Evans,
helped Eugene to get away
from France to exile in England
with her husband and their
son. Napoleon lived but two
years in the hills of Kent.

lowed him to the grave.

in South Africa he was killed

For so years she was to carry
those memories of the grandeur
of that Empire, of the Emperor
and of the Prince Imperial. She

CAPITOL ART

One of the most famous
painters of his day, Constantine
Brumidi worked for years to deco
rate the walls and corridors
of the Capitol with some of the
most brilliant creations ever
exhibited.
His work has been pointed out
to millions of visitors who have
passed through the building in
recent years. One of his most
outstanding achievements was
the decoration of corridors with
the likeneSses of birds and
animals of the United States.
His paintings have faded,
however, and it was necessary
recently to have their delicacy
restored.
Instead of an accomplished
artist such as was Brumidi, there
was called in a regular painter.
Working in overalls and with
coarse brush he accomplished
the task of restoring Brumidi's
originals.

port of which Mr.. Tugwell, Mr..
Wallace and Mr.. Ickes have been
stumping the country is not ap-
preciated by the Administration.
On the contrary a doubt seems to
be developing in Administration
circles whether 'the breathing
spell' olive branch offered to busi-
ness last autumn was good
politics"
The revolutionary speech which
Mr.. Tugwell delivered on the
Pacific coast a short time ago and
the bitter attack on the whole
structure of American civilization
which Mr.. Ickes unlimbered at
Detroit few days ago are believed
to reveal the increasing dissatis-
faction of the Administration with
the net results from political
point of view OF its offer Of "a
breathing spell" to American
business.
If this Interpretation of the Tug.
well and Ickes outbursts proves to
be correct the country may soon
expect a revival of the harasS-
ment of all American business and
an attack on all fronts upon
American enterprise.
FUTURE POLICY
The truth is the official house
hold of the Administration is a
house divided against itself in re-
gard to its future course. The
waning in popular favor OF the
more radical items in the Ad-
ministration program, as shown
by various polls, prompts one
group of advisers to urge upon
the Administration a continua.
tion of its efforts to unite the
radicals of the country under its
leadership.
Another group of advisers
recommends further efforts at the
coming session of Congress to-
ward the conciliation of American
industry and commerce.
Which road Mr.. Roosevelt will
take is not yet known. He car,
not delay his choice, however,
much longer. He may wait until
his annual message to Congress.
In the meantime the vast ma,
chinery of personal government
which the bureaucratic forces of
the Administration have as
sembled in the Federal City will
find it easy to follow up the
speeches of Mr.. Tugwell and Mr..
Ickes with new series of attacks
on American business when as
and if the Administration decides
that the chances of reelection
can best be served by such
course.

yet for years the pleas of citizens had been ignored by
those who had the power to bring about the desired
change.
ABOUT YEAR AGO THE WASHINGTON TIMES
STARTED A VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN ON BEHALF
OF THE CITIZENS TO GET ACTION
Out of that campaign came original allotment Of
100000 of Federal funds to remodel the building and
promise from District authorities to widen the street
soon the necessary changes in the building were made
Unfortunately when bids were asked the 100000
found to be just short of adequate
Now the Public Works Administration has made an
additional grant of 900 and with the combined funds
the National Park Service has been able to award con-
tract which calls for the carrying out OF the IDEAL
PLAN for the project.
Although there has been delay in carrying the
project through it is gratifying to know that it will now
be done in the best way possible.
