COurtChange
In Fact Daughters Seem TO
Be Opposed to Almost
Everything

Washington, April 2l.- U.R)-
The Daughters of the American
Revolution tonight stood adamant
against proposals which would
change the structure of the su-
preme court and the nations cap
itol.
At a busy session of the 46th
continental congress, the society
approved resolutions which:
/. Condemned legislation en-
bodying President Roosevelt's plan
for reorganization of the federal
judiciary and proposed that the
issue be submitted to the elector-
ate in the form of constitution
al amendment.
2. Opposed bill sponsored by
Senator Tom Connally, D., Tex,
providing for expenditure Of S4,-
100000 to replace the original
limestone front of the capitol
building with marble and move the
building forward a number OF
feet.
The OAR also took cognizance
of the controversy raging in the
District of Columbia over the pro-
posed construction of a Thomas
jefferson memorial in the tidal
basin which probably would re-
suit in destruction of Japanese
cherry trees lining the basin.
The gift of these trees by the
Japanese government constitutes
a goodwill gesture x x x and to
lightly brush aside this gesture
wohld brand the American people
as lacking in appreciation and un-
derstanding of international cour-
tesy," the resolution said, adding

Here's q Squirrel
That's House
Broke

Here's a good squirrel story.
FranCi5 GriCe. young son OF Mrs.
Ruth G. Grice, lO5 w. Church
ST.. found a baby squirrel a few
months ago and brought it home
with him. But knowing his moth
er's antipathy to rodents Of all
kinds. he concealed the baby
squirrel in his bedroom and kept
his find a secret.
Francis fed the baby on milk
until it could take stronger diet
and then gave it nuts, until the
squirrel grew into a big. full
grown squirrel. And then Mrs.
Grice discovered it and told Fran
els he would have to put the var
mint out doors. Francis pleaded to
be permitted to keep the squirrel
indoors until warm weather.
Warm weather came last week
and Francis put the squirrel out
doors.
But the house-bred cqulrrel
won't stay out doors. 1t will baSK
in the sunshine and frisk around
the Gricc backyard and climb
trees during the daytime. 1t will
90 to a neighbours and scratch
on the door screen until some
one comes and gives him nuts,
which he scampers off and buries
But at night the bright-eyed lit
tie fellow will seek the back door
of the Grice apartment and
scratch until it gains admittance,
scampering up to the room of its
young master where he beds IN
an old lamp shade until time to be
put out doors again next morn

Give This pistol to Ray l.. TWid-
dy. My sickness has destroyed
me-"
Leaving only this brief note in
explanation of his act, Dan r.
Morgan, Elizabeth City wholesale
and retail grocer, sent a bullet
crashing thru his brain in the
garage of his home at sos South
Road St., about ll:45 o'clock yes
terday morning.
He was 64 years old and had
been in i'll health for two years;
his business had been worn upon in
the depression of the pat several
years: two sons in whom he had
hoped to develop his illness sue
ceSsors had disappointed him in
this respect. Sick, tired, oppressed
by a feeling of defeat, he had
probably contemplated the act for
weeks.
Two weeks ago he had his teeth
extracted. His family thought they
noted an improvement in his con-
dition: he ate more heartily, SEEM
ed to enjoy his food.
Il hope you will get new teeth
right away" said his wife to him
Il don't know that I shall ever
bother to get new teeth" he re-
piled. He probably had Self-de-
struction in mind at the time.
Yesterday morning he went tC
the store of Ray L. Twiddy ano
borrowed a pistol. Not an unusual
occurrence. He had borrowed that
pistol before when bothered by
burglars. Taking a piece OF wrap
ping paper and SCribbling a hur-

parked in his garage, placed his
hat. SpectaCleS and the suicide
note on the seat, stepped from the
car. fired the fatal shot, slumpec
down on the running board of his
car, expiring almost instantly.

Ian county, KY, interrupted the

gan. Earlier in the day Ted
Creech, bulky Kentucky mine
superintendent, was held for the

he concluded testimony last week
that he had been offered Sl00 by
a Harlan county deputy sheriff to
assault an organizer for the Unit
ed Mine Workers.
when I went by, I heard a
man named Wash Irving say
something about people who turn
