WOMAN FELLED
BY TROLLEY
MRS. z. G. COPE

Just because a street car got in
her way, Mrs. Dorothy Shannon,
25, we'll known in Washington
amateur theatrical circles, lost a
chance to go on the radio today.
Instead, she went to Emergency
Hospital to spend the day.
She was struck down by the
street car on F Street Northwest,
near Fourteenth Street, and only
the quick action of the motorman
saved her from death or very
serious injury.
Mrs. Shannon had alighted
from the automobile of her hus-
band, Donald w. Shannon, an en-
ploye of the United States Ship
ping Board, and had stepped
from the loading platform to
cross the car tracks to the south
side of F Street. An east-bound
trolley car, swinging around the
corner from Fourteenth Street,
struck her. She fell backwards,
and her feet remained on the
track.
G. w. Taylor, the motorman,
stopped the car Gin a few inches" j."
according to Traffic Officer H. H.
Hartman. Mrs. Shannon escaped
with a cut on the head, although
she suffered from shock.
Mrs. Shannon, who lives in the
900 block of Silver Spring Ave-,
was to have made a broadcast
on a commercial program. Her
place was taken by Miss Laura
Staggers. Hospital attaches said
Mrs. Shannon would be dis,
charged some time during the
day. She is a member Of the staff
of the United States Chamber of
Commerce.

SAAR GOES Wild
OVER HITLER
By PIERRE ]. HUSS

SAARBRUECKEN, March /
G.N.SO.-Like a Roman Caesar
returning triumphant from the
wars, Reichsfuehrer Adolph Hitler
swept into the Saar today and Of
ficially claimed this rich mining
territory in the name of Nazi
Germany.
He figuratively implanted the
swastika banner in the coal
stocked soil of the Saar a few
hours after the actual formalities
of handing the region back to
the Reich. had been concluded.
Popular rejoicing unparalleled
even in the Third Reich, where
mass adulation of national heroes
has become part of the country's
creed, reached its peak when the
chancellor, unannounced, drove
through the streets of Saar-
bruecken at the head of a motor
cavalcade.
He thus fulfilled a promise
made when the Saar, by popular
plebiscite, voted on January 13
to return to Germany for the
first time since the World War
He had announced he would come
personally to welcome the Saar-
landers back to the Fatherland
but his movements were Shrouded
in secrecy and his actual arrival
was sudden and unexpected.
Half million NaZiS poured into
the Saar to help its 100000 resi-
dents celebrate, and all Germany
joined with flying Of flags, noise
making, and toaSting in beer and
Saar wine from last midnight
throughout the day.
Leading squadron of IA planes
Chancellor Hitler flew to Mann
helm and proceeded to the Saar
border by motorcar. The actual
entrance into the territory, which
for is years was a bone of conten
ton between the Reich and
France, was made at TuerkiSm
huehle, 40 mile; from Saar
bruecken.
Through crowds so dense that
military escort had to proceed
in front to clear the streets. the
Chancellor drove to the Excelsior
Hotel, bowing and smiling In
response to the cheers.

FIGHT To FINISH
OVER RELIEF
B|LLLOOMS
President Spurns Compromises
Offered BY Senators;
MCCarran Firm
BY WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON
International News Service

International News Service
A finish fight between Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the Senate on
the issue of paying prevailing
wage rates on his $4,880, 1000, 900
work relief program loomed today
after both sides rejected a pro-
posed compromise.
The impasse strengthened the
position of Senate conservatives,
who demanded the whole work re-
lief program be Scrapped as ex-
travagantly wasteful and direct
relief continued another year.
This would call for a $1,88O, ,OOO.-
900 appropriation for direct re-
lief. but it could be used for So
called made work as is now be-
ing done.
Matter of Honor
The compromise would have
given the President permissive au-
thority to pay prevailing wage
scales in localities where he
deemed such rates necessary to
protect existing wage levels and
pay his subsistence wage Of $50
monthly in other localities. 1t diff
fered but little from the Russell
plan, which was beaten by the
Senate.
The President notified Senate
leaders he opposed any provision
which might restrict his use OF
the huge relief fund.
He intimated he felt his per-
sonal honor had become involved
in the Senate controversy and in
dicated he believed the issue to be
whether he could be trusted to
spend the relief fund in a proper
manner.
Compromise Doomed
It can be definitely stated that
the President is not now inter
ested in any compromise with his
views on the work-relief meSaure.
From an authoritative source it
was learned today that the Pres
ident did not take up yesterday
afternoon with Senator Robinson,
of Arkansas, Democratic floor
leader, the various Senate COM
promises offered by Senators. The
President is understood to be
standing firm on the way the
work-relief bill went through the
House, providing method Of TAX
ing people off relief and putting
them to work at wages averaging
$50 a month.
The President. it is understood,
believes that the great mass of
taxpayers is against the McCarran
prevailing wage amendment
which was tackled to the Senate
bill by a majority of one vote.
The promise also was
turned down by Senator McCar-
ran CD of Nevada, author Of
the prevailing wage amendment,
and by other Progressive leaders
and by so national leaders of the
A. F. of L.
Other Efforts Fail
Two other efforts to compro-
mise also failed. One proposed
to call for payment of wages in
accordance with the Davis-Bacon
act. Such wages would be paid
only on public buildings erected
by contractors under contracts.
It would apply to no other con-
| struction work and not even to
public buildings, if constructed by
the Government, or by a State,
county or municipality.
The other compromise effort
proposed to retain the McCarran
amendment but include another
provision giving the President
power to set aside the prevailing
wage rule in any community
where it's payment embarrassed
industry or lured men to the
relief rolls from private jobs.
