Christmas, Easter and Thanksgiving
holidays, as provided in the bill in
troduced in the House by Represen-

more than 240 elapsed days-depend-

the Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter

teachers believe they should be paid
for this elapsed time instead of mere
ly for the actual number OF days they

$4,000 Needy
Roosevelt Warns
Bills Threatened
By Rebel Flares
In Both Houses

WASHINGTON, May %.
(UP) - President Roosevelt
said today that if congress
persists in earmarking $500
100000 of the 1,500, 900
relief bill the government will be
unable to care for $4,000 of those
now on relief.
Mr. Roosevelt said that the $505,-
100000 set aside for public works,
flood control and road building
would give direct jobs to 100000
unemployed on relief.
If the Works Progress admins
tration is given the $505 100000 as
the administration intended, the
money could be made to provide
jobs for 100000 needy, he said.
Works Progress Administrator
Harry Hopkins has estimated that
under the full $1,500,00O,000 appro-
priation without earmarking -
rolls must be cut from the existing
100000 to 100000
1t was learned that the chief
executive will firmly insist that
earmarking of more than one third
of the fund for flood relief, public
works and highways be eliminated
from the measure.

trolman William Redding.
The demonstrators were gradu-
ally herded into the short block
off Fifth street between Harbor
Boulevard and Beacon street, where
flowers lay on the spot where
Gregg died and around which were
grouped bareheaded longshoremen
in a guard of honor.
The block filled with demon
strators as another large gathering
came together some distance away
in the Wilmington bowl. At that
meeting place longShoremen had
been summoned to voice their pro-
test against the Staying of Gregg
and to demand the arrest and trial
of officer Redding.
Assistant Chief George Allen said
that preliminary inquiry indicat-
ed Redding had shot in line of
duty and that his action was just
ifiable.
Police reported that union SYM
pathizers were stopping all who
passed along Harbor boulevard OPP
poSite the Fifth street intersection
and demanding that pedestrians
and motorists alike remove their
hats in token of tribute to the dead
longshoreman.
Shopkeepers said that they had
received calls from unidentified
persons who, on the telephone said
they were longshoremen and de-
manded that they close their doors
as a demonstration against the
killing of Gregg. A number of
stores closec.
For one hour this morning all
local bus traffic was suspended,
which was declared to be another
gesture of sympathy with the long
shoremen's demand that Redding
be arrested for the Gregg killins.
Nearly all the docks along the
waterfront were deserted by cargo
handlers as longshoremen obeyed
the call of their leaders to attend
the bowl mass meeting. Roy l..
