Central Union Mission
Aide Combines Gifts
To Help Children
$125.000 Drive to Build
Wing Coils Attention
To Phuse of Work

A motherly touch, the art Of
story telling and the experience of
a mission worker are combined by
Mrs. j. H. Neal in her administra-
ton of the Children's Emergency
Home of Central Union Mission,
which is now conducting drive
for $125, 900 to erect new wing
to relieve crowded conditions in
its building.
Children who come to the home
as innocent bystanders of parental
difficulties are cared for by Mrs.
Neal. The cases include children
whose fathers drink heavily, desert
their homes and families or are SEN
fenced to Jail.
Arriving at the mission here in
March, 1897, as bride of the
new assistant superintendent, Mrs.
Neal was made secretary to Mrs.
Jean Bennett, present superin.
tendent. Her experience as a city
mission worker in Norfolk, Va, and
college training in dramatics and
oratory led to drafting her as as
sistant to Mrs. Bennett, in charge
of the Emergency Home for Chill
dren.
Mrs. Meals ability as a dramatic
reader has made her beloved by
children in the home. She first
Demonstrated the power of story

doors to more than a hundred boys
and girk every Sunday. She re-
counted the adventures Of David,

ries and folk tales were her source
material, all ending with a good
moral. Mrs Neal is a graduate of

By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, March 31.-The po-
htical career of Warren Van DYKE, a
small town boy" who rose through
the ranks to become a power in Penn
sylvania's Democratic party. Is ended,

WORK SLACK HITS
NAVY YARD LABOR
Letting Of Ordnance Jobs
to Private Contractors
Felt Here.

The letting of ordnance projects to
private contractors has so diminished
the work load at the Washington Navy
Yard that some of the shifts have been
eliminated and many Of the employees
are threatened with the loss Of their
jobs, e. j. McGuigan, president OF
Columbia Lodge No. 174, International
Association of Machinists, charged to-
day.
Mr.. McGuigan said the rerouting OF
work to private contractors has re-
suited in the situation that there is
hardly enough to keep the force busy"
Many machines now stand idle, he
said, and in the sight and broadside
mount shops, the midnight to am
shift has been eliminated, and the
workers absorbed in the am. to 4
pm. and the pm. to midnight shifts.
There are reports the miscellaneous
shop and torpedo tube shop shifts from
midnight to 8 am. will be erased on
Monday.
5000 Concerned for Future.
The 5000 machinists at the Wash
ington Navy Yard are concerned about
the future. Mr.. McGuigan asserted.
With the naval supply bill for the COM
ing year passing the Senate yesterday,
he said, many outsiders are of the
opinion there is plenty of work at the
washington Navy Yard but he pointed
out this is not true, and in any event,
these funds do not become available
until July l.
Referring to the projects now being
placed in private hands, Mr. McGuigan
said:
I'VE are Of the opinion that this
work should be done in the Naval
Gun Factory, where it can be done
much cheaper, even though the me-
chanics are compelled to do the work
on many machines that are 20 years
old. The average age of the machines
on which these mechanics do this
work is 19 years, and the work is of
the highest degree"
Active Building Slow.
Navy Department officials have ex-
planned the slowing down of work is
caused by the cessation of active con-
struction. They declare there is
lapse between the time money is made
available and plans are drawn and the
time machinists actually begin work
on the metal.
Although Congress is now consider
ipg vast naval building program that
will cost more than $1,000, 100000,
this measure is merely an authorize
tion. The actual appropriation of the
funds will come later as the money is
needed for construction, naval au-
thorities assert. Accordingly this pro-
gram is Of little use at this particular
time, as far as aiding the work load is
concerned. The Navy considers it
more economical to let out some of its
ordnance work to private bidders, au-
thorities declared.

MEXICO HITS

With TARIFF
Duties Raised on Some
American Products
Nearly 500 Pct.

MEXICO CITY. Jan. %. (UP).
American Ambassador JoSephus
Daniels yesterday informed the
Mexican government of his "sur-
prise and regret" at the new pro-
hibitive tariff on so-called "luX-
ury articles" which raised d3ties
on some United States imports
nearly 500 per cent.
The ambassadors views were
given Foreign Secretary Eduardo
Hay when Daniels visited the for
eign office. Hay informed the
ambassador, the latter told news
papermen at a conference, that
the matter was handled entirely
by the treasury department.
81 then visited Suarez (Treas-
ury Secretary Eduardo Suarez)
who said the increase was a neces-
sary step to stabilize the peso"
Daniels continued. "He said the
prices of many articles were low
in the United States as compared
with Mexico and in order to pre-
vent weakening of the peso in re-
lation to the dollar, the treasury
was forced to increase rates.
"Suarez said the increase was
temporary and that he very much
regretted having to do it."
The increases, which hit Ameri-
lean imports hardest inasmuch as
the United States supplies the
greater part of articles exported
to Mexico, were announced Tues
day night by the treasury.

that some holding companies pro-
duce mass efficiency and thus OPP

In the group which net yester-

MacAuley acted as spokesman
and read this statement to re-
porters:
eve had a broad discussion of
the factors affecting business and
government and we believe it was
very helpful.
1--WE reported to the president
that we are hopeful of a seasonal
increase in sales in the spring
that will bring about an improve
ment in business.
1--WE found ourselves in hearty
agreement with the presidents
principles on the subject of in
stallment selling. Properly used
installment buying has and will
continue to help millions of fam
lilies to a higher standard of living
with a corresponding increase in
employment. But high presenting
customers or permitting their de-
sires to take them into debt be-
yond their means is bad business
all around.

cuss among ourselves, any posi-
BILE improvement relating to the
subjects discussed and to report
back to the president"
He said that no date had been
fixed for the next meeting with
Mr.. Roosevelt and insisted that
the question of so controlling
production as to prevent periodic
"ups" and clowns" in Americas
economic life was touched upon
only briefly. Asked if Edsel

preparation of briefs after the
power companies have given no.
tice of appeal. The IVA, he said,
is eager to have the case review
ed and the issues finally settled
before summer.
Eighteen southeastern utilities,
led by the giant Commonwealth
and thern corporation,
brought the suit that resulted in
the special courts unanimous de-
cision yesterday. They had charg-
ed that the IVA was primarily
a mammoth power business, COM
peting directly with private COM
panies to the detriment of pri-
vate business.
The court-composed of circuit
court of appeals Judge Florence
E. Allen and Tennessee district
Judges John ]. Gore and John d.
Martin - declared that "these
compliments have no immunity
from lawful competition even if
their business be curtailed or de-
stroyed."

said, "that none of the complain
ants claim to operate under an
exclusive franchise, no fraud,
malice, statutory coercion or con-
spiracy exists; since the authority
is not exceeding it's power, and
since the statute is constitutional,
the competition with these COM
plainans is lawful"
