PEERY WILL NAME
PENSION COST PAIR
Commission to Study Old
Age Problem Will Report
to Legislature.
" the Associated Press.

Gy inc ASSoCleLeo fIeSS.
RICHMOND, July 8.-Gov. Peery
said yesterday that he expected to ap-
point within the next few days two
members of the OldAge Pension Cost
Commission, authorized by the last
General Assembly session.
This commission of seven members,
two named by the Lieutenant Cover
nor, three by the speaker Of the House
of Delegates and two by the Governor,
will submit recommendations to the
next Legislature.
The old-age pension bill, whereby
each dollar appropriated by the State
would be matched by an equal Fed
eral sum, was passed by the House Of
Delegates, but was defeated in the
Senate Finance Committee.
Gov. Peery, who favored enactment
of an unemployment compensation
measure, was opposed to old-age pen
sion legislation until such time as
more information as to cost was avail
able.
Both House and Senate agreed to
bill appropriating $4,000 for study
ing old-age assistance costs and re-
porting the results of such findings,
together with recommendations, to the
1888 Assembly.
The presiding officer Of the Senate
named Senator Benjamin Muse, Din
widdie, old-age pension champion.
and Senator Aubrey Weaver, Front
Royal, to represent that branch on
the commission. Neither Gov. Peery
nor Speaker Ashton Dovell Of the
House have announced their respective
appointments.

W0-LANE BRIDGE
IDEA IS PROTESTED
Wider Structure Needed to Re-
place Chain Span, Arlington
Man Says.

By sta1 Correspondent OF rhe Star.
LIVINGSTONE HEIGHTS, Va, July
ga protest on the possibility that
Chain Bridge will be replaced by an
other two-lane bridge has been en-
tered with the District of Columbia
Commissioners by James William
Somerville, Arlington County attorney
and member of the County Democratic
Committee from this district.
His move Is expected to be joined
in by other Arlington County residents
who daily use spans across the Poto-
mac.
Referring to a two-lane span as a
lone e-horse-shay type of bridge" Som
erville said construction Of a narrow
new bridge connecting Washington
and Arlington would certainly be a
monument to folly in recent letter
to Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen.
He cited an official traffic count
showing that a vehicle crossed Chain
Bridge on an average of every
20 seconds during daylight and
stated that the count was made
last February in time of ice and
snow, and added traffic on the bridge
is increasing daily because Arlington
County's population is multiplying"
In reference to the recent act OF
Congress in authorizing the expenol-
ture of s35o,00o to replace Chain
Bridge, the attorney said he under
stood District highway officials are
favoring erection of a two-lane type
Of bridge in its place.
Somervile also cited daily traffic
jams at both ends of Key Bridge to
advocate the building of another bridge
across the Potomac somewhere be-
tween Key Bridge and Chain Bridge.
He suggested that this bridge be
named in honor Of Thomas Jefferson
or Franklin D. Roosevelt.

White-haired Senator Gore, blind
since childhood, was ushered out Of
Office by an electorate that recalled
him from nine years of retirement to
return to the Senate six years ago.
When he was a boy of 8 in Mis-
sisSippi a stick struck his left eye
while he was following cattle on his
fathers farm. The vision was i'm
paired. Three years later log cross
bow broke, destroying the other eye.
He still retained some sight in the
left eye, but reading soon rendered
him blind.
Graduated from law school, he went
to Texas in 1896, married Nina Kay
in 1900, and the following year they
pioneered in Oklahoma.
First Elected in 1907.
Gore was first elected to the Senate
in 1907, by the Oklahoma Legislature.
After IA years of service he voted
against the United States entry into
the World War, and was retired from
the Senate, only to make comeback
in 1880.
His reelection campaign this year
was on platform Of mo trusts, less
taxes, more trade"
Commenting on his political life, he
said: Il have been guided in my Of
fetal conduct rather by the fixed star
of principle than by the shooting stars
of expediency."
Lee, who as boy came to Okla
homa from Alabama in a covered
wagon, made his first political race
two years ago, winning the fifth dis
trict seat in Congress.
His announcement for the Senate
at the end of his first term as Repre-
sentative was characterized by veteran
politicians as ''unwise politically
especially in view of the competition
from Marland and Gore.
Marland, who made millions in oil,
gave away fortunes and saw his own
fade, has an unbroken record Of sue

PENSION PAYMENT
BY RAILS DELAYED
Retirement Board Studies
Policy in Light of Bailey
Ruling.
AZ the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press.
Although the Government won what
its attorneys view as partial victory
in a recent court test of 1885 rail-
road pension legislation, the decision
has snarled plans for disbursement Of
benefits and put a major policy ques-
ton up to the Railroad Retirement
Board.
Judge Jennings Bailey of the Dis
trict Court ruled void an act levying
taxes for the pensions, but did not
hold unconstitutional a companion
act providing for their payment.
Fund Seen Available.
Officials said Congress appropriated
s46,0o0,o00 for pensions. and attorneys
expressed the opinion the court ruling
would not bar use of this fund for
benefit disbursements.
Designed to cover the first year of
the pension systems operation, the
appropriation was made out of gen.
eral funds on the assumption the
Treasury would be reimbursed from
levies imposed under the tax act.
The Pension Board is studying its
course of action, but Chairman Muir
ray W. Latimer said no decision had
been reached.
May Pass Question on.
1t would be possible, officials said,
for the Retirement Board merely to
certify to the Treasury that pensions
were payable to designated individ-
uals, thus passing the question of dis
bursement to that department. They
added, however, that the Treasury
probably would be consulted on any
decision reached.
Pensions were scheduled to begin
July for employees who were IS years
old or who had been in service 80
years. Based on length of service
and earnings, and ranging upward
to a maximum of $120 monthly, the
pensions would average around $75
q month.
Neither the Government nor the
class l railroads, which challenged
validity Of the new retirement legisla-
tion, have appealed from Judge
Bailey's decision, but such action is
expected.

USE
IS SOUGHT BY j. S.
President Bares Negotia-
tions Involving Florida
Canal and 'Quoddy.
Ey the Associated Press.

Py tllC AooOSlhlcO EICco.
A quest by the administration to
find some use to which equipment ac-
quired in connection with the con-
Occasionally disapproved Florida Ship
Canal and Passamaquoddy power
projects could be put was described
yesterday by President Roosevelt.
The President said at his press con-
ference that negotiations were under
way with the University of Florida to
take over structures built in connec-
tion with the canal project and that
he was working to find some way to
use buildings erected as part of the
Passamaquoddy tidal power project in
Maine.
The Florida negotiations are with
a view to allowing the university to
use buildings near Ocala as an exten-
sion school for the training of teachers
the year around.
Mr.. Roosevelt said no plan for
utilizing 'Quoddy village had been
formed, but that he expected a solu-
ton would be found soon.
The two projects were started by
executive order last year. Congress
refused to appropriate funds for con-
tinuance as provided in the War De-
partment supply bill. An effort to
amend the deficiency bill so that
boards OF review could be set up to ex-
anime the worth of the projects failed
when the Senate voted 'Quoddy down
and the House disapproved the Florida
Canal Board which the Senate had
favored.
1t was originally estimated the canal
would cost $146,000,O0o and the
'Quoddy project s42,Ooo,o00. Approx
imately s5,4oO,oC0 was spent on the
canal and s7oo0,o0O on 'Quoddy be-
fore Congress refused to provide addi-
tional funds.
