CHURCHES OPPOSE
CORPORATE. UNIONS
Attempt to Block Organization
Charged by Congregational.
Christian Council.

Charging that the present agitation
for incorporation of labor unions is
"contrived to embarrass and block
unionization, the Council for Social
Action of the Congregational and
Christian Churches of America has
promulgated five-point program for
public attitude toward the labor
problem
The program follows:
From now on. labor's right to or
ganization and collective bargaining
must be protected. The right is basic
in a democracy.
Labor has not, up to date, had an
even break in the courts and in the
enforcement of the laws. Such in
equity must be corrected.
Labor, delayed and thUarted in its
struggle for organization, cannot be
further hindered and bounded. The
day OF arbitrary injunctions, yellow
dog contracts, company unions and
labor spies must be ended.
The regulation of all economic
groups within American society is in
evitable. Neither capital nor labor
can escape. But the regulation must
not be lopsided.
The present drive for the COM
pulsory incorporation of labor unions
is contrived to embarrass and block
unlonization. The move for incorpo-
ration cannot safely come until such
time as organized labor is accepted by
organized capital as an established
fact. When industry accepts union
labor as inevitable and desirable, then
can labor freely accept incorporation"

WINFIELD CLEARED
ON TICKET" COUNT
Acquitted Of All Four Spec.
ifications in Fixing"
Charge.

The Police Trial Board today
acquitted Policeman Wexford E. Win
field OF all four specifications con-
tanned in ticket-fxing charge
brought against him by the Police
Department.
Winfield. who sat through all ses-
sions OF the three-week hearing, left
the fourth precinct trial room in tears,
as Inspector Edward j. Kelly, Trial
Board chairman. gave his decision.
At the conclusion of the trial, De-
fense Attorney Charles E. Ford told
the board he was convinced to a
moral certainty that he had repre-
sented an innocent man" and that
there was mo charge which had any
support whatsoever in testimony"
Both Ford and Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel E. NJ Welliver, who
prosecuted the case. praised the board
for its extremely fair and thorough
hearing of the case"
The first two of the charges on
which the board acquitted Winfield
were that while assigned to the traf-
fic records division he disposed OF
traffic violation notices without proper
authority" and that he stopped serv-
ice Of warrants for traffic violations.
The second two were that the for
mer traffic officer failed to make
proper records of certain traffic tickets
and that he possessed certain courtesy
cards without the propert authority. -
Welliver said the bottom fell out
of the case when Inspector Benjamin
Lamb testified he authorized Winfield
to make ticket adjustments and when
Lieut.. Walter H. Thomas testified he
authorized Winfield to take certain
traffic records home for study.
Recent testimony has convinced
me-" Welliver said, that if there
exists any fault in ticket fixing, the
fault is not that Of Winfield. AS long
as We are to have parking tickets we
will have parking tickets fixed"

TWO GO ON TRIAL
IN WOMAN'S DEATH
Tirst.Degree Murder Laid to Pair
in Attack in Wood
shed.

Charged with first-degree murder
and criminal assault, Alonzo Turner,
80, and Elmer Fulk, 80, went on
trial in District Court today as the
accused slayers OF Mrs. Mary Maier,
SO, who was killed in a Southwest
Washington woodshed June OF last
year.
Turner was adjudged sane last Mon
day after his attorney. Josiah Ly-
man, requested preliminary sanity
hearing.
Assistant United States ATTORNEY
Cecl Hetlin said the Government will
attempt to show that Turner went
to the Maier apartment at 628 Inde-
pendence avenue southwest about 7
pm, represented himself to be a de-
tective and said he was going to take
Mrs. Maier and her husband, Louis,
to the fourth precinct police station
Mrs. Maier fled down the stairs, and
Turner pursued her, ordering her hus-
band to remain in the apartment,
Heflin stated. He said he will contend
Turner took her out the back door and
into woodshed at 626 independence
avenue and there criminally assaulted
her, later fatally injuring her with a
stick of wood. He was arrested about
2 am. the next day. Fulk was impli-
Gated by statements of two small boys
that they saw man resembling him
IN the woodshed. Mrs. Maier died
three days later in Casualty Hospital
During the sanity hearing last week,
three psychiatrists told the jury
Turner was an epileptic. One of
them, Dr. John r. Ernst, said the dis
ease had affected his mind and he
was subject to lengthy dream states"
during which he did not know what
he was doing. Drs D. Percy Hickling
and Richard Thibadeau testified, how
ever, his mind was sound.

delayed by the Carroll County au-
thorities today as they awaited the
outcome of head wound which her
husband. William H. Buckingham.
%, retired Washington policeman, in

wife.
County authorities, summoned to
the Buckingham home by nelghbors
who heard angry voices followed by
tour blasts Of repeating shotgun,
found the wife dead and the husband
desperately wounded, the Associated
Press reported
Tells of Threats.
Mrs. Charles Hall, who called the
Sheriff. said she heard the couple
arguing and Buckingham say, sit
down or Ill shoot you"
Sheriff John A. Shipley. a brother
ln-laW OF Mrs. Buckingham, found the
elderly Womans body lying across a
ped on the second floor Her husband
lay IN the hallway on the first floor.
Mrs. Buckingham had been shot
three times, twice in the breast and
once in the leg. Buckingham was
shot through the head
Still conscious when the officers ar
rived, the former policeman admitted
shooting his wife and himself, but
gave no explanation, the sheriff re-
ported.
A trail of blood indicated, the officers
SAID. that Buckingham had stumbled
down the stairs after the shooting.
He was taken to a Baltimore hospital,
where physicians held little hope for
his recovery.
Inquest Not Likely.
Sheriff Shipley went to the house,
accompanied by Chief Deputy Walter

coroner said there probably would be
no inquest.
