 Decision to retain the existing commission was not unanimous. Two committee members were said to still favor a commission of five, one from each congressional dis trict, which would deliver adminis- tration to a form resembling the old county commissioner system which was declared politically oh- jectionable when the act was passed at the last session.
 One of the main fights on the bill is expected to come from drug gists who last year successfully fought injunction proceedings brought by package store owners, charging discrimination in that the drug stores were allowed to sell in smaller quantities and keep open later hours. A constitutional court ruled against the package stores.

 He died at 8:35 p. m., yesterday on the ninth anniversary of the coup of May, 1926, when he emerged from retirement to lead his political supporters in carn-- paign to save the country from what he thought would be anarchy threatened by parliamentary bicx- erings.

TWO TR|-STATERS
. SENTENCED TO DIE
Wiley and Farrell Found
Guilty in Staying of
William Weiss.
BY the Associated Press.

~ SaAu GooUSAubCh EtCoSs
DOYLESTOWN, Pa, March a.
Roy Francis Wiley and Martin Farrell,
"tri-State gangsters," tonight were
convicted of murder, with a recon-
mendation for death in the electric
chair, for the Manipulating of Will
liam Weiss, Philadelphia night life
character.
The Bucks County Jury of 10 men
and 2 women returned the verdict at
$40 pm, within three and a half
hours after retiring.
The State asked convictions Of first
degree murder with the death penalty
for the two convicts, while defense
counsel requested the jury to bring in
convictions for murder in the second
degree.
Weiss was abducted from outside
his suburban Philadelphia home last
October 26.
Ten days later his friend, Albert
(Buck) Mayer, paid $1,000 of a $12,O 900
ransom demand in a futile effort
to obtain his release That same eve
ming, the State contends, the gang
shot Weiss to death, wrapped his body
in blankets, weighted the bundle with
iron, and then threw it into Nesha-
miny Greek, where 1t was found sew
eral weeks ago.
This contention was upheld in
statement attributed to Farrell and
presented In evidence at the trial.
The statement implicated both Far
rell and his codefendant. The pris-
oner, however, alleged that the con-
fession was taken from him by force
after his capture in New York.
The defense sought to blame the
