7 BODIES
AFTER BLAST

CHICAGO, Feb. IA. U.N.SO
One mangled body was recovered
today and a second sighted in the
twisted wreckage Of a four-story
building demolished by an eXploS-
ion yesterday:
Workmen. using acetylen e
torches, winches and a steam
shovel tore at the debris through
the night to extricate the lifeless
body of Daniel Mclean, 81, pinned
under huge steel girders. They also
sighted the body of William Blake,
A, missing foreman Of the Swift
& Co.. hydrogen manufacturing
plant, buried deep in the wreckage.
Two other workers in the plant,
Walter Erickson, 48, and Michael
Butrimas, 80, were killed, and Is
were injured, three critically.
The blast, which could be
heard for distance Of three
miles, caused damage to the
Swift 81 Co. plant estimate at
500, 900, and surrounding build
ings were damaged to the extent
of $4,000.
Exact cause Of the explosion
has not been determined. It is
believed, however, that hydrogen
had escaped from pipes leading
from the manufacturing units to
storage tanks on the roof. A
spark from wire or from a heel
plate scuffed on the floor would
be sufficient to explode the gas,
company officials said.

Fishing Boat Rammed,
Another on Shoals

BOSTON, Feb. IA I.N.S0.
Signal rockets piercing a binding
BLIZZARD and sighted by the crew
of the Nantucket Lightship today
sent the Coast Guard cutters
Algonquin and Champlain racing
to a schooner, thought to be a
fisherman with 10 aboard, in
danger of laundering on the
dreaded Nantucket Shoals.
At the same time, the Glou-
cester fishing schooner Natalie
Hammond, slightly damaged from
being rammed by the American
freighter Nation. 80 miles off
Cape Ann, was towed to Boston
with her crew of 81 thankful for
their rescue by the Coast Guard
cutter ThetiS. One of the crew,
Jose Valerie, suffered injuries
from a 35-foot fall from the TO-
castle head shroudS to the deck
as the fishermen ran to the reg
ging when the vessel was struck.
The Nation, not seriously dam
aged, made her way to Boston
under her own power.
Fear grew that the schooner
off Nantucket may have found
cred when rocket signals were
no longer visible to the lightship.
The stricken vessel has no radio.

BeIIeViIIe Gas Situation
That Killed 2, Controlled

BELLEVILLE, ILL.,, Feb. IA Il.
N.SO-"The situation is under
control; it is not serious"
William Farley, city health Of
ficer, thus declared today in com
menting on the invasion of Eelle-
vile homes by mysterious gas
fumes which have taken two lives
and made Al persons i'll.
Farley said that no new cases
of illness from the gas have been
reported in the last IL hours. He
also called attention to the fact
that few Of the gas illnesses have
been of a serious nature.
Farley said the intense cold,
which has frozen the ground to
unusual depths, is responsible for
the gas invasion. He pointed out
that gas from ordinary leakage
In underground mains normally
escapes through the earth and is
dissipated in the air but now un
able to get through the frozen
earth it may have seeped along
pipes and into Easements. He be
lieves the menace will disappear
as soon as the cold breaks.
Mayor George Remsnider, who
lives within two blocks of one OF
the affected districts, declared
that "the situation has been ex
aggerated" and that it is not seri
Gus. The mayor said there has
been no sign Of the gas in his
home.

PHILADELPH HIA, Feb. IA
G.N.S0.-In a precedent setting
decision affecting all PWA, WPA
and other Government projects
in the Administrators $4,000
100000 work relief program in
this district, Federal Judge
George A. Welsh today decreed
that honorably discharged World
War Veterans, their wives or
widows are entitled to preference
over all others to employment on
Government work projects.
The decision. the first any
where in the nation to establish
the status of veterans and their
families, applies specifically to
this Federal court district, but
its effect may become nation
wide because it affects the gen.
eral employment progra OF
Harry Hopkins, the AdminiStra-
tion's relief chief.
The decision may tie up all
Federal projects in this area until
the case is ultimately settled by
higher courts. Meanwhile, it will
force relief chiefs here to make
drastic changes in existing regu-
lations for the employment OF
personnel on the jobs, outside OF
executive and administrative posi-
tionS.

Cooper, Slater LAmond and
Charles w. Burgess; Col. Charles

eminent. If any such changes
are contemplated. they asked the
general assembly should put
Alexandria back into its old style
of government.
Delegate Rosenberg defended
his bill asking that the city at
torney and the city collector be
made elective offices after; Alex
andrianS had voted to do so at
a referendum, saying he had re-
ceived numerous requests to Spon-
Sor the legislation. Anot h e r
Rosenberg bill calling for an elec-
tion and not appointment in the
case of any vacancies in the civil
and police court judgeship was
reported out of committee. No
referendum is required in this
proposed charter change.
The committee voted to tenn.
porarily pass by the controversial
bill until Tuesday when Mr..
Rosenberg will offer amendments
affecting the amer of the
referendum to avoid the cost of
a special election.

To Aid Mothers
On Island

Expectant mothers on storm
swept Smith Island today were
assured of adequate care through
che heroic efforts of Mrs. Char

IN D. E. TAXES
SCORED
House Group Ready to
Push Bill Curbing
Title Sharks

Tax title spectators in Wash.
ington were condemned by mem.
bers of the House Judiciary sub
committee today during hearings
on a bill designed to give the Dis
trict government a clear title to
properties sold for arrears Of taxes.
Apparently nearly agreed on ap.
proval of the bill, the subcommit-
tee broadened the discussion to
the entire tax collection system
here, which, it was agreed, should
be completely revamped.
Unfortunate MuIcted
Representative Everette DirkSen
(RO of Illinois declared:
"The whole philosophy Of the
present system here is wrong. It
permits certain people to mulct
the unfortunate"
The criticism leVeled at the law
under which private individuals
are permitted to bid on properties
offered at tax sales, and when
they pay the amount of taxes in
arrears may charge IL per cent
interest on the sum involved as
well as other charges after two
years.
It was pointed out by Rufus
Lusk, secretary of the Washing.
ton Taxpayers Protective ASsocia-
tion, that in one case a private
bidder obtained tax title to a piece
of property for $224.46 plus inter-
est of $20.15, and that when the
owner of the property several
months later sought to regain the
property the owner of the tax title
demanded a total of $588.
Millions at Stake
Representative DirkSen declared
that the present practice places
the District government in the po-
Sition of allowing these tax title
SpeculatorS to take away an un-
fortunate persons property and to
speculate with millions of dollars
worth of real estate here annually.
He told both Mr.. Lusk and e.
Barrett Prettyman, Corporation
Counsel, that if they would draft
some kind of a bill to eliminate
this practice and bring the DIS
trict law up to date he would
prosecute it to the utmost
DirkSen also pointed out that
tho Y1r0fecSjOOa1 taY title hllVerS
take only the cream" of the
properties offered under these
tax sales, and that they do not
have any sympathy for the un-
fortunate person who loses his
home, nor do they have the in
terests of the District govern
ment at heart. He said they
leave the undesirable properties
on the hands of the District.

Director Of Highways H. C..
Whitehurst was instructed today
by the District Commissioners to
prepare an order calling for full

The restoration was made pos
