py the Associated Press,

Ey the Associated Press.
A comprehensive plan for linking
Is strategic American cities by power
lines as a national defense measure
will be submitted to President Roose-
welt before the end of the year.
A promise to this effect was made
yesterday after Mr.. Roosevelt and a
group of high Government officials
discussed the possibility.
Louis johnson, acting Secretary of
War, said committee would be named
to daft plan for removing what he
called "bottlenecks" in the field of
power which might hinder defense.
Mr.. Johnson said he would be the
committee chairman.
I'VE expect to have final report
ready before the end Of the year." Mr..
johnson asserted.
Assistant Secretary Edison OF the
Navy Department, who also will serve
on the committee, said that because
of bad business conditions power COM
panies were about three years behind
their normal growth" and that the
committee would Cooperate with
private utilities that are behind and
see II this situation of extreme i'm
portance to the Army and Navy can
not be rectified."
One problem which is causing con-
cern to defense experts. 1t was learned
is that Washington and Baltimore
have no means of tapping power re-
sources from Philadelphia and New
York in case their own supply source
fails.
The committee is understood to be
contemplating study of the use OF
power which might be generated along
the Canadian border, particularly with
reference to operation of the Neutral
ity Act.

BODY IN POTOMAC FOUND
TO BE PENNSYLV LVANIAN'S

The body of a man taken from the
Potomac River yesterday morning was
identified last night as that Of William
E. Wilde, As, a patent medicine sales
man of the Chester Arms Hotel,
Chester, Pa. The body was discovered
in the river just below the Washington
end of Arlington Memorial Bridge.
The coroner's Office expected to per-
form an autopsy later today. The
body was identified by James Wood
house, 1900 block of Rhode Island ave-
nue. NV, who had known Mr.. Wilde
when he lived at the same address on
Rhode Island avenue.
Meanwhile, the Associated Press re-
ported from Chester that Mr.. Wilde
checked out of the hotel there about
a month ago. He had been living
there about three months.
The body apparently had been in the
river almost month when discovered
by a passer-by. Police were convinced
that bruises on Mr.. Wilde's head were
caused by q fall from the bridge.
There were no other marks of violence.

KENNEDY PRESSES
REORGANIZATION
Proposes Employment of
Municipal Expert to Out
line D. c. Plan.

Renewed efforts were made today
by Representative Kennedy, Demo-
crat, of Maryland to get action at
the current session of Congress on
plan to reorganize the District
government in the interest Of eff
cheney and economy.
Mr.. Kennedy initiated the move at
the last regular session of Congress.
and 1t resulted in the preparation of
two reorganization plans-one by
himself and another by special
Citizens Committee appointed by the
Commissioners, which was headed by
former Corporation Counsel E. Bar
rett Prettyman.
Now Mr.. Kennedy proposes to seek
an amendment to the 1899 District
appropriation bill providing $4,000
for employment Of an expert on
municipal government to coordinate
the plans and recommend a program
OF local suffrage which would give
District residents voice in the selec-
ton of municipal officials.
Chairman Collins of the Appropria-
tons Subcommittee which framed
the 1899 supply bill, according to
Mr.. Kennedy. promised to support
the amendment.
Il think we have enough informa-
ton on the municipal government to
work out a definite program of re-
organization" said Mr.. Kennedy. 1T
this data can be turned over to an
expert, I believe he will be able to
develop q plan that will save the
District government Thousands OF
dollars year and stop these recently
recurring budget deficits"

Mattresses in some of Washington's
restaurants are averaging sl10 to $3.50
monthly in wages and tips, more
than some Government clerks are
being paid" the Wage Conference OF
the Minimum Wage Board was in
formed yesterday afternoon.
The witness was Robert j. Wilson,
business manager of the Washington
Restaurant Association, under which
some 800 independent restaurants are
listed. He claimed mattresses in small
restaurants are averaging $226 week.
ly in wages and tips.
"A waitress working on. low wage
augmented by tips Is a lot better of
than girl in othef establishments, -
he said.
Differential Suggested.
Mr.. Wilson appeared before the
conference for the purpose of urging
the adoption of fair" minimum
wage but one with a differential in
favor of the non-service worker. BY
fair wage he meant one that in
cluded tips and charge for meals
consumed by the employe.
A majority of the restauranteurs, he
claimed, were not opposed to a fair
minimum wage.
Recalled on the stand, William M
Kochenderfer, executive secretary OF
the Hotel Association of Washington
repeated an assertion that the old
District minimum wage law was not
generally observed. He was chal-
lenged by the employe representa-
tives on the conference. In 1921
they refuted, the Minimum Wage
Board ordered employers to pay back
wages totaling $3,79l.

company gave testimony bearing or

JURY TRIAL IS DENIED
OYSTER IN TAX CASE
Another Judge Has Previously So
Ruled, Court Says in Busi-
ness Levy Hearing.

Fairfax Oyster, prominent local prod
use dealer. today was denied jury
trial on charges Of violating the Dis
trict business privilege tax law by Po-
lice Court Judge Walter ]. Casey.
Judge Casey said his grounds for
denial were based on the fact that
another judge had previously 50 ruled
in Mr. oysters case. He pointed. how
ever, to the fact that in case of con-
viction the defendant may appeal.
When first arraigned on charge Of
falling to make tax return for 1886,
Mr.. Oyster was denied jury trial by
Judge Edward NJ Curran on grounds
the act contained no provision for
such procedure. When the case reached
Judge Casey, however, a member Of
the corporation counsel's Office joined
defense counsel in the jury trial de-
mand, both holding that, since the
act prescribes a maximum penalty Of
81 900 per day for each day of refusal
or failure Of business or professional
operator to file return, the maximum
penalty was high enough to entitle
him to q jury trial.
There are five cases pending against
Mr.. Oyster, the dates picked at ram
dom over q period Of more than so
days. No date has been set for the
trial.
