LAWYERS BACK
UNIFIED LAWS

Swinging into line with the De-
partment of Justice, the Federal
Bar Association has gone on rec
ord in favor of cooperation Of the
State law enforcement agencies
under Federal auspices, simplifica-
ton of local laws and regulations
and coordination of local law en-
forcement under State super
vision, it became known today.
The recommendations, closely
patterned on lines favored by the
Attorney General, werc made pub
lie in the findings of Federal Bar
Associations special committee on
improvement Of criminal law pro-
cedure. With E. Barrett Pretty
man as chairman, the committee
included H. 10y Anderson, Gordon
Dean and H. Milton Colvin.
Pointing to Maryland, Virginia
and the District of Columbia as
typical examples, the committee
urged that Federal authority en-
courage system of mutual recog-
milton by bordering States Of a
limited number of enforcement
officers for quick service in cases
which cross State lines either in
escape or continuous commission.
In this connection the commit:
tee added that a clearing house"
on information regarding crimes
and criminals should be estab-
lished under Federal guidance.
The committee described as IAN
almost countless mass" the small
cases which have arisen in local
communities under traffic laws,
sanitary regulations, building and
labor laws. I'm the aggregate"
these cases are important, the
committee reported but added
that law enforcement would be
elevated to much higher plane
If these laws were simplified.

SUITOR ADMITS
STRANGL|NG
WOMAN:
BUFFALO, N. Y,
May 5 (I.N.SO.


Fl loved her. She twO-timed
me. So killed her."
Shaken and sobbing, Hilton Cul-
Inns, 4S, today confessed, police
said, that he strangled to death
Mrs. Grace Matice, 38-year-old
beauty-shop owner at whose home
he boarded here.
Cullins was arrested at a bus
terminal q few hours after Mrs.
Matice's body was found by her
19-year-old son, Maxwell, and JACK
Dare, 10, of Pontiac, Men, a
nephew.
Cullins. police said, came here
from Detroit last February. He
had known Mrs. Matice, who for
merly lived in Detroit, for some
time. He told detectives at police
headquarters:
1--WE started to argue about
her going out with other men.
I loved her and she got mad at
me for speaking to her.
81 must have gone crazy.
don't remember much of what
happened but l remember we
were graphing and l had my
hands around her throat.
81 loved her terribly and she
was twO-timing me with another
man. 1 asked her to give him
ND. She refused. So 1 killed her.
81 didn't mean to do it."
Cullins wept for several mo-
mentS.
Detectives started a hunt for the
third figure in the tragic triangle.

D. E. STUDENT
SONGS SCORE

To Washington's long list OF
distinctions, add another - the
fact that this community boasts a
resident who is probably the
youngest composer of popular
songs under contract to a New
York music publisher.
He is Irwin N. Hackerman. He's
Just 20. He plays the violin, studies
law, likes Washington, sings a
little and wrote the lyrics for
''Psychologic1y Speaking"
Now "PSychologic'ly Speaking
is a new song, not yet on the mar.
ket. But it is being published in
New York, and is Hackerman's
maiden effort at big-time music
publishing.
Hitherto his songs, for which he
wrote both words and tunes, have
been heard in shows at Eastern
High School and George Washing
ton University, as well as over
local radio stations. He hopes
this background will enable him
to carve a place in Tin Pan Alley,
but he says he would rather re-
side in the District than in New
York.
At present Hackerman is study
ing at the Washington College Of
Law. Asked if he would choose
arguing before jurieS as his career,
he replied:
Law is giving me a good edu.
cation, but they think I've got a
bigger future in the music bust
ness"
Hackerman was born and reared
here. His father works for large
chain of grocery stores. They live,
together with other members Of
the family, at 1901 Argonne Pl.

PRETTY c. TRIO TOPS IN BOWLING

Among agencies of the Govern
ment, the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation is one Of the most
quiet.
The first emergency unit to be
organized, set up by the Hoover
administration, it has been un-
hampered by adverse legislation,
personnel booms or reductions,
and has quietly attended to its
business during the hectic days Of
the New Deal.
Two pretty Washington girls
and one from Kansas have as
sisted, however, in keeping the
RFC before the public eye in the
realm of athletic recreation.
Active On Team
Clad in attractive yellow shirts
inscribed with RFC on the back,
Leola M. Stahl, Ruth E. Schooley
and Virginia j. Calvagno have
taken active parts with the bowl"
ing team of their office, which
holds a franchise in the Ladies
Federal League of the District and
competes regularly each week.
And while they do not make
bowling their only interest, they
say it provides them with regu-
lar social "get-together" that
only increases their pleasure dur
ing office hours.
Miss Stahl, diminutiVe
blonde, is the Kansan of the
group, coming to the National
Capital from her home in To
peka more than seven years ago
after she had graduated from
Topeka High School.
Her first appointment was
with the Bureau of Internal
Revenue, where she worked al
most three years before accept
ing an opportunity to join the
"RFC staff, where she is now a
secretary in the Treasurer's Of
flee. Intending to make Gov
ernment work her permanent
career, she has lately been study
ing at George Washington Uni
versity during the evenings.

Old Pierce Mill
Dam Too Lou
For Grinding

The ancient stone wheels of the
Old Pierce Mill, which began
grinding exceeding fine a few
weeks ago, are not grinding quite
fine enough, it was learned today.
AS a result, the Public Works
Administration is again coming in
directly to the aid of the quaint
old corn-meal business here.
AS. explained by c. Marshall
Finnan, superintendent of Ma
tional Capital Parks, the dam
which was rebuilt by PWA isn't
high enough to impound suffi-
cient water for the perfection of
the grinding process. It is now
planned, he said, to add about
eight inches to the height Of the
dam.
