P. RODRIGUEZ
RECEIVES BURNS
TRACTOR BAcKFIREs AND
IcNITES CAN OF GAS
....' OLINE

Peter Rodriguez, employe Of
the WPA, was painfully burned
yesterday by flaming gasoline
when the tractor on which he was
working backfired and ignited a
can of gasoline which he was
holding.
The tractor and men working
with it were at the old car barn
on South Beach. 1t was found
necessary to use some gasoline
in getting power and Rodriguez
was doing this when the backfir-
ing ignited the gas.
In a second the gasoline was in
flames, and Rodriguez threw the
can from him. 1t went a little
higher in the air than was in
tended and the flaming liquid
fell on the shoulders of Rodriguez
and in a moment his shirt was in
flames.
He managed to remove his top
shirt and undershirt but not be-
fore he received a number of
burns about the shoulders, arms
and hands. These were prompt
~ attended to by Leo Haskins,
who applied first-aid and imme-
diaiely rushed the sufferer in his
car to the Marine hospital.
II was said that the burns were
only superficial and though Rod
rignez would be incapacitated
from work for a short period OF
time, he would soon be ready to
return to his activities.

New Deal Faces Third Test In November;
Party ParadeS Begin Political Circus

Twenty-seven weeks from next
Tuesday, the people of the United
States will go to the polls to pass
judgment upon the administration
of the affairs of the Government
of the United States.
The election in November will
be the third test of what is known
as the New Dealv. The members
of the House of Representatives
and one-third of the Senators
must face their constituents, who
will have the opportunity of pass
ing upon their records. Most of
the congressman who seek re-
election understand that their po-
litical life depends upon public
sentiment towards the policies of
President Roosevelt and their
own classification as supporters
or opponents of the Chief Execu-
tive's program.
