SUMMONS

SESSION
IGNORED
Mine Leader Will Not
Reply to Threat Of
A. F. l. Custer
International News Service

All possibility of a reconciliation
between President William Green
of the American Federation Of La
Dor and John L. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers, ap.
parently was swept away today
when Lewis announced that neither
he or any other representative Of
the UNIV. would appear before
the executive council Of the A. F.
of L. on Thursday in answer to q
summons by Green.
The attitude of the eleven other
unions, summoned before the ex-
ecutive council by Green, has not
been disclosed.
These unions, who Joined Lewis
in the committee for Industrial
Organization, which has launched
a drive to organize the 100000
workers in the steel industry along
mass lines, instead of craft lines
as advocated by Green, were sum-
moned to show cause why they
should not be suspended from the
A. F. Of L.
Stand is Surprise
Lewis announcement came as
a complete surprise. It had been
anticipated he would face Green
across the board at the executive
council meeting in a dramatic eff.
fort to induce the latter to with
draw his suspension threat.
He issued no formal statement,
but merely made it clear that no
representative of the U. M. W., the
most powerful organization in the
A. F. of L., would accede TO
Green's ultimatum.
With U. M. w., the II unions
supporting Lewis in the present
campaign in the steel fields have
a total membership of about 1000.
900, or about one-third the total
membership of the A. F. of L.
Split In Ranks Threatens
If they join the mine workers in
refusing to appear before the exc
cutive council serious split in the
federation ranks threatens, though
Lewis had previously said:
ut is inconceivable that the
executive council would commit
any act to split the labor forces
of America in the midst of q
campaign in the iron and steel
industry and in the face of the
arrogant ultimatum issued to
the entire labor movement by
the American Iron and Steel In
stitute."

Governor Asks Broad
Social Security
Amendment
By WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON


STATE CAPITOL, TOPEKA,
Kan, July Z Q.N.S0.-Declaring
firmly against the principle Of
writing legislation into a consti-
tuition, Governor Alfred M. Ian
don today urged the Kansas legiS-
ture to propose a broad amend
ment to the State constitution,
permitting State participation in
any final Federal social security
program.
The governor declared such an
amendment was necessary to per
NIT State cooperation with the
Federal Government in caring
for the aged and needy, because
the State constitution now places
that obligation solely upon coun-
ties. He recommended adoption
of the proposed amendment by
the people of Kansas in Novem-
Der.
Change in Law Hinted
The Republican nominee for
President reserved a full discus
sion of the social security issue for
his acceptance speech here July
%. He merely pointed out to the
joint meeting of the specially sum
moned legislature that the Repub'
lican platform differed on this is
sue from the Rooseveltenacted
social security law.
There was a faint intimation

Predicting that his National Union
for Social Justice will poll 10000
900 votes this November, Rev.
Charles E. Coughlin, the radio
priest, today left here the forecast
that the election of a President
will be thrown into Congress after
the ballots are counted in the fall.
Representative Lemke of North
Dakota, the Union party PreSiden-
tial candidate, will draw so heavily
from Governor ALI M. Landon, the
G. o. P. candidate, and President
Roosevelt, that no one of the three
will receive a majority of electoral
college votes, the priest declared.
Father Coughlin, here to ad-
dress an organization meeting OF
TOO followers. also viSualized the
Lemke candidacy as drawing
more votes from Landon and the
Republican ticket than from the
Democrats, but refused to express
a preference for either major
party candidate. He said:
81 understand Mr.. LandOn is
a very fine gentleman person
ally, but his candidacy was Gre
ated by two or three newspaper
editors. / have been as vitriO-
lie in my attacks on LandOn as
I have been on Roosevelt"
Asked his choice between the
two men he answered:
"YOu might as well ask me
to choose between Strychnine
and carbOlic acid"
In Pennsylvania, he said, the
union has 100000 members.
Scheduled to appear at Buffalo
meeting today, Father Coughlin
left the city by train promptly
after the meeting.

SISTER BITTER
 AT EXECUTION

Hollywood, April A. (UP) - Red himmed eyes, swollen from crying indicated today the grief of Mrs. Emma Gloeckner over the execution of her brother. Bruno Richard Hauptmann. Tiny Mrs. Gloeckner sat motionless last night before a mantle clock, as the minutes crept by while in New Jersey Hauptmann was being killed in the electric chair. Her daughter, 17-year-old Mildred Gloeckner. also was watch ing the clock. When the hands on the clock crept past 5 p. ma p. m. in New Jersey and time for the execution-their faces lighted. They had not received telephone call informing them that Hauptmann had been executed.
 Something must have happenedl They will have him." For nearly another hour they awaited news. Shortly before D. m., they were informed that Hauptmann had been executed. "Gotti" Mrs Gloeck- ner moaned. "So. 1t is all over. cannot believe Richard is dead but it must be so." They then wept.
 When Mrs. Gloeckner regained her composure, she said:
 "Tell them to ask MT. Wilentz and Dr. Condon how they spent the night. My brother is dead - they cannot torture him any more. But find out how Mir. Wilentz slept"

 MT. Elmer Kemp, local un- dertaker and county coroner will embalm the body in the prison," the warden said. He will not take 1t to his place.
 Tt will be ready at 3 p. m. It will be turned over to a New York undertaken, who will take 1t to New York by motor hearse."

 New York, April 4.-UP)-Dr John P. Gafsie) Condon, whose tes- timony played major role in con- victing Bruno Richard Hauptmann of Kidnapping and murder, has mo comment" to make today on Haupt- mann'S execution.
 The radio to which Condon usual- ly listens almost constantly in even- ings in his Bronx home was turned off several hours last night before Hauptmahn died. When the execu- tioner threw the electric chair switch in Trenton "Jafsie" was im- mersed in book in deep arm chair in his pleasant living room.
 A few minutes later friend tele- phoned another member of the fam fly that Hauptmann was dead. The educator to whom Hauptmann had sent word that God will judge be- tween us" sent out word that he would say nothing about the case and a short time later lights in the house were extinguished.
 At Lindbergh Home
 Weald, England, April 4.-CUP)-- A village policeman, in plain clothes for the occasion, was the only sign today, here where Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh and their baby Jon sought refuge, that Weald was in the same world as the one iii which Bruno Hauptmann died.
 Lights in Long Barn, the cen- turies old home which the Lind. berghs have leased, went out be- fore midnight. The village was in darkness when Hauptmann died, a litle before 2 a. m. British time.
 The policeman's tramp was all that could be heard, in the village.
 Though no attempt at revenge on the Lindbergh's for Hauptmann's death was seriously feared, police officials at Sevenoaks, two miles from here, ordered an emergency patrol which included several uni- formed policemen detailed to watch in the neighborhood of Weald for strangers.

New York, April 4-(UP) P)-Indus- trial shares led the stock market higher this week but volume fell of to the lightest levels of the year.
 Failure of the list to generate more substantial activity on ad- vances led to further caution and irregularity cropped out again late in the week. Wheat had severe setback but commodities otherwise were firm, especially sugar futures which made new highs since 1928.
 A more settled condition abroad contributed to the turnabout in the stock market before the Friday ir- regularity. On Friday, however, the French franc resumed decline that had been arrested by a rise in the Bank of France discount rate from 3h to per cent. Last week the Bank of France lost more than $7,O00,000 in gold and the loss this week is expected to reach $66, ,OO0, 900. The German situation appeared to be better.
 At home the only adverse item was the uncertainty oyer the tax bill under composition at Washing ton. Business news was favorable. Steel operations were at 62 per cent

She accompanied the correspond ent to the front door, shook hands and tried to wipe the tears from red eyes.
 As the door closed, the correspond ent heard Frau Hauptmann burst into paroxysm of sobs, mixed with groans and mutterings in the vio- lence of her emotion. Through the door she was heard to say over and over:
 Tt can not be! It can not be pos sible!"
 As the correspondent walked down the pathway, he saw the shadow of the old woman, between the lamp on the table and the window, rocking back and forth in her chair.
