sented yesterday are explained as

partment or Of the District Of Colum-
bia government, or any of the func-
tions of the Federal Reserve Board to
any agency.
The new bill provides that the

pendent regulatory commission which

been amended by exempting, specific
ally, judges Of legislative courts from

MILITARY CALLED
IN HUNGER STRIKE
Entire PEGS, Hungary, Area
Controlled by Army to
Halt Spread.
NJ the Associated Press.


PEGS, Hungary, February 25.-Mil-
itary control was declared over the
entire PEGS mine region today to halt
the spread Of a hunger-strike Of 267
coal miners, isolated in their workings
far below the surface.
After the toll Of dead in yesterdays
rioting at the pit shafts rose to three.
with six others wounded, army au-
thorities closed the university to pre-
vent student sympathy demonstra-
tions.
The strikers, reported dominated by
Q militant minority, restored COM
munication with the surface momen-
tarily to ask that trade union COM
n1ittee be sent down to hear their
terms.
Committee Is Barred.
Authorities. however. refused to per-
NIT the committee to 60 below.
The immediate objective Of the au-
thorities was to prevent the strike
from reaching proportions of 1884
demonstration in which 1900 miners
threatened mass suicide to enforce de-
mands for wages greater than 50 a
week.
Their threat ended when the gov
ernment promised better working con-
ditions. The present strike was aimed
at increasing the daily rate Of pay
from 81 to $1.20.
Gendarn1eS were stationed at other
shaftheads today to frustrate any at
tempts to broaden the strike. More
than 1000 miners were barred from
the pits February II when plans for
o hunger strike were uncovered.
Crowd Stones Police.
Police and 300 men and women
FLASHED last night near the scene of
the present trouble. The crowd stoned
the police and the shooting followed.
Two of those injured are women.
The condition of the 267 hunger
strikers was not known today, for all
communication between the surface
and their dark refuge had been severed.
A mine official said it was impossible
even to drop food to them.
In the belief that part Of the work.
ings along the 656-foot shaft might be
filling with water or dangerous gases.
authorities considered efforts to restore
pumping facilities suspended by the
strikers.
1894 Veterans in Group.
They expressed the opinion ma
jority Of the group wished to return
to the families feverishly awaiting
them near the shaft-head, but were
prevented by militant minority.
Among the group were veterans Of
the 1884 strike. With the miners were
400 ponies used for underground haul
ing, which they declared would be kept
without food, too. A letter sent to the
men by the mine management was
returned unopened.
Maj. Emil Fey, former Austrian
cabinet member. and head of the
Danube Steam Navigation Co., owners
Of the mine. asserted in Vienna that
Socialists and agitators" had caused
the strike He declared the workers
were provided with free housing and
