Miss Underwood told officers she
once went with Root for three months,
but evaded him after she learned he

the estrangement of the couple.
Il didn't love him." she said.
Parents Kind to Wife.
Parents of the slain man. Rev and
Mrs. Benjamin Franklin Root, were
sympathetic with the wife in their
grief.
We will do all We can to make her

NAMING OF LABOR
DELEGATE DEFENDED
William Green Answers Criti-
cism on Appointment of
Hutcheson.

The appointment of William l..
Hutcheson, international president of
the Carpenters union, as the delegate
of the American Federation of Labor
to The forthcoming International La
Dor Conference at Santiago, was de-
Tended last night in statement by
William Green, president of the fed
Grafton.
Green obviously was answering an
rrticle in New York newspaper which
had declared the appointment was dis
pleasing to President Roosevelt and
Secretary Perkins because Hutcheson
had been a Hoover supporter and had
said also that it was looked upon as
a slap at John Lewis. president of the
miners. and a Hutcheson opponent.
Lewis and Hutcheson recently came to
blows at the federation convention in
Atlantic City.
On the political angle Green. ex-
planning the Executive Council of the
federation proposed Hutcheson's ap-
pointment, said:
"The officers of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor never understood that
political consideration Of any kind
entered into the designation Of labor
representatives to International Labor
Organizations Conferences. Recon-
mendations of workers delegates for
attendance at these have been made
without regard to politics or political
consideration"
Further, Green added: THE infer
ence drawn by any one that the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Hutcheson to attend
the International Labor Organization
Conference could be regarded as a re-
prisal against any individual or group
connected with the organized labor
movement is without foundation, false
in every particular and unworthy of
moments consideration"

MELLON SCORES
MORGENTHAU
'MEDDL|NG'

PITTSBURGH, May /. G.N.S0.
Andrew w. Mellon today had
dashed back at a rebuke by Henry
Morgenthau, jr., Secretary OF the
Treasury, and said the Govern
ment official was making "a crude
effort to interfere with the admin
1stration of justice"
This was in answer to a tele-
gram from the Secretary who
placed a stamp of approval on
the work of Robert H. Jackson,
chief Government counsel at the
income tax hearing. Mr.. Morgen-
THAI declared that Mr.. Jackson
should continue with no abate-
ment in the vigor of your efforts
to get to the simple truth in these
transactions or in your insistence
that they shall be judged by the
standards of common business
honesty"
Mr.. Mellon stated that Mr..
Morgenthau had made a public
attempt to influence a matter
now on trial before a duly con-
Stituted court"
That matter Is Mr.. Melons
$3,089,000 tax case.
Mr., Melons counsel, Frank j.
Hogan, was even more bitter than
the 80-year-old multimillionaire.
He said:
Counsel for the Treasury De.
partment, ObceSSed with the
idea that no limit were imposed
upon him and no rules Of fair
ness applied to him, has per.
siStently attacked the living
and the dead, the young and
the old, the lawmen and law
yers. We do not propose these
tactics shall continue without
vigorous protest"
Mellon also asserted:
"Any invasion of my per-
sonal rights as citizen is Of
relative unimportance. But
when the Secretary of the
Treasury, a member of the
Presidents Cabinet, deScends
to a public attempt to influ-
enCe q matter now on tF1aA
before . duly constituted court,
the action is a crude effort
to interfere with the admins
tratiOn Of justice and con-
tinuatiOn Of the political ef-
forts of his administration in
my case"
The controversy grew out of
the heated hearing session Mon
day, when Jackson threatened to
withdraw from the case after a
brief he had filed was ruled out
by the United States Board of
tax appeals, hearing the case.
Jackson contended the board
was mot getting at the real
truth" in the matter Of the
McClintic Marshall and Bethle.
