 Physicians today ascribed the death of Frances Mary Boccawsir,i, who died at l:06 a. iil.. Sunday in the second day of life. to her slightly premature birth and to the disease ravaged body of her mother which could not supply the essen- tial minerals and chemicals to make her healthy ard strong.

 pr. John Corbit. the 28 year old obstetrician, who performed the op- eration and kept the baby alive for almost 46 hours, vas greatly disap- pointed. He had hoped that his science would be sufilcient to win its dramatic struggle against nature.
 After breathing through the arti. ficial aid of oxygen for 40 hours, the baby began having coughing attacks, due to the accumulation of mucus in her throat, four times the acc cumulations were cleared Up with tubes, but the fifth was too much for her heart and she succumbed. Dr. Corbit and his assistant, Dr. Robert F. Wulf. breathed into her lungs and administered adrenalin, a heart stilnulant, but in vain.

Bruno Richard Hauptmann, who was

Gov. Harold G. Hoffman, who was

''AS long as that fund existed and
the President had the power to make
refunds to the departments, the
heads of the departments interested
in their work would never give up
hope of securing a return of the en-
tire Is per cent I fear they would
be on the doorstep of the President
all during the year seeking an oppor-
tunity to show the necessity for res
toration of the S350,O0000O.
The Congress, exercising its legis-
lative function, should fix the total
amount of appropriations. Congress
can provide a reduction of 10 per
cent, specifying the fixed charges to
which it should not apply and then
permit the head of department to
transfer, not exceeding 10 per cent Of
the funds, from one bureau to another
bureau within the department where
necessity arose. The fixed charges to
be eliminated will, in my opinion,
amount to one-half of the total ap-
propriations of $1,000, 100000 That
will leave O0,OOO,o0O to which the
10 per cent cut would apply.
I'm his budget message the Presi-
dent expressed his determination to
bring about economies in order to bal
ance the budget. 1 am sure the Con-
greSs is anxious to cooperate with
him. In my opinion, the amendment
should be offered to the last appro-
priation bill to pass the Congress.
am glad that Representative Cannon

started a movement to effect reduc-
ton and I am satisfied that since we
are aiming at the same goal we will
be able to reach an agreement as to
the best method to pursue"

The bill represented partial victory

greater discretionary powers for the

provisions.

more likely to involve the Nation in
