Veteran Will Divide His Bonus
Among Lawmakers Opposing 1t
Lauds Stand Of 80 Who
Voted to Sustain
President Veto.
Says Pirate Praise of
"Best Citizens" Fails
to Reach Public.

Frederick Dewitt Shelton, All
Hadfeld Lane, is one of 3,500,00O
World War veterans who will receive
q bonus in June-but, unlike the
other 3,499 ,999, he intends to give
the cash from his certificates to the
Senators and Representatives who
maintained he had no right to q
bonus.
So heartily does Shelton approve
the stand of the 80 legislators who
voted to sustain the Presidents veto
that he insists they should be con-
tinued in Office. AS contributions to
their respective reelection campaigns,
he will divide his bonus among them.
"It is an inspiring thing to see
members of Congress take the un-
popular side of an issue and vote
their convictions despite the blud-
geonings of an organized minority" :"
the veteran wrote in letter to the
Senators and Representatives yes
terday.
II know well," he continued, that
a Congressman who does thus vote
his conyictions has a thankleSs task.
His independence is privately ap-
plauded by many so-called best
citizens but these same citizens sell
dom lift a finger in support of him
when he is up for reelection.

port of the organized groups which
he favors by his votes. That is why
he is denagogue.

SNOW DUE TONIGHT.
WITH z READING
Forecaster Unable to Make
Prediction Beyond Next
"a Hours.
TEMPERATURES.

Winters icy clutch frightened around
an already frozen Capital today. as
snow flags were unfurled at the
Weather Bureau.
Due to start late this afternoon or
tonight, the snow is not expected to
be heavy during the next "a hours
but what may develop beyond that
puzzled the forecaster.
The mercury was expected to rise to
slightly below the freezing point this
afternoon and a minimum of about %
degrees was predicted for tonight
Yesterdays high was %, recorded at
3:45 pm, while the minimum this
morning-l5-was reached at oclock.
Little Relief in Sight.
The weather map in the Midwest
resembled patch-quilt and made the
local forecaster hesitant to hazard
more than guess as to what is in
store for Washington after the snow
gets under way.
No abatement in the low tempera-
lures is in the immediate offiag, how
ever, it was said at the bureau
Records showed the city was entering
its seventh consecutive day of below
freezing weather. The last time the
mercury registered above 80 here was
last Wednesday.

Virginia Also May Get Snow.
Virginia was promised slightly
warmer weather today, but the FORE
caster Offset what cheer this might
bring by predicting the Old Dominion
also would come within the snow

Two additional deaths as a result
of the cold were reported in the
State, bringing the total for the cur

FRANKLIN TOPAY
ADDITIONAL. SUM
$4,000 Depositors on List
for Dividend "Within Rea.
S0nabIe Time"

Another dividend for about $4,000
depositors Of the old Franklin Nation
al Bank may be paid within rea-
sonable time" it was learned today
following a meeting of the three
trustees of the Franklin Liquidating
Trust yesterday afternoon.
How much OF dividend will be
available, or exactly when it can be
paid, was not disclosed. But the
prospects for a second dividend, to
follow the original one Of IS per cent,
became definite for the first time as a
result of the meeting.
Loan Cut to 100000.
The original loan of $806,0O0 from
the Reconstruction Finance Corp. to
the Franklin bank has been reduced
to 100000, it was learned. The r.
F. c. has agreed to place this re-
naming loan against the two bank
buildings, one at Tenth and Penn
sylvania avenue, now rented by the
City Bank, and the other on Con-
necticut avenue near K street.
T. r. F.. c. will return to the liqui-
dating trust all the remaining COL
lateral, consisting of bonds and notes,
which had been held against the
original loan, making possible an early
liquidation of this paper to obtain
cash for another dividend.
Payment to Deposit0rs.
The depositors received their first
dividend of IS rer cent, totaling about
$1,800,000, April %, 1884, when the
best Franklin assets were taken over
by the City Bank and the banking
house opened again at Tenth street
and Pennsylvania avenue. The re-
naming IS per cent unpaid deposits,
which were waived" by depositors,
would amount to $1,000,000. It is
understood that there is no prospect
now of paying the entire remaining IS
per cent, but that a, substantial per-
centage will be available.
The three trustees of the uquidating
trust are william F. Kelly, Henry ].
Sterzer and Lindsay P. Rawley.

WARN
LAW WILL CUT PAY
Protest Bill to Limit Women
to 4O-Hour Work
Week.

A warning that enactment OF the
bill to reduce the hours of work for
women in the District from 46 to ~
hours a week would mean drastic
reduction in the wages of women
laundry workers was contained today
in a letter to the Commissioners from
President John w. Lowe of the Dis
trict Laundry-Dry Cleaning Associa-
ton.
Lowe also warned the change in the
law may lead to a migration OF
District laundries to territories where
more liberal working conditions pre-
vail. He added: Millions of dollars
of taxable property will be removed
thereby"
He told the Commissioners approx
imately 80 per cent of all laundry
employees are women and that the
laundry business is one of the largest
employers of women in the District
He said they employ about $500
women
Competition Cited.
If compelled to operate under
40-hour law. in competition with
plants operating in Maryland and
Virginia where the hours are 54 to
so, respectively, an irreparable injury
will result The outside plants of
which we speak draw large percent
age of their present volume from the
District. Competition is already being
offered by a plant in Baltimore.
"The disadvantage of local plants
may be more readily discerned when
it is pointed out that from every dollar
Of receipts laundry pays out between
IS and so cents in wages. Annual
gross receipts in all plants approximate
S7,000,000, while wages are somewhere
between $3,500,000 and $4,000, 900.
Paid for Piece Work.
"This being so, the industry would
have no other alternative than to
drastically reduce wages. Such reduc-
ton would automatically follow, be-
cause most employees affected by this
bill are on a piece-work or pound basis
and as their productive hours are de-
creased their earning is decreased.
Even this decrease in operating cost
would not wholly recompense the
plants for the disruption of service
schedules, customer dissatisfaction and
public inconvenience"

intention of taking the bonus for

it will serve a good public purpose,
I propose to collect my bonus and

voted against the bonus bill"

Shelton they intend to choose the

probation of courageous action" by

Veterans of Three Glasses.
Generally speaking, the veterans
were inclined to divide themselves
into three classes-the small-salaried
heads of households, who already owe
the amount anticipated; the transients
and wastrels. who will toss theirs away
whenever they get it, and the COM

This latter class, it was said. will
