Wolf Pleads Guilty.
To Gambling CHARGE

Described as the last man avail
able to the authorities in the famous
Carroll Peyton (Nubby) Nuckols
horse race gambling gang, Max Wolf
pleaded guilty yesterday in District
Court to two charges of gambling
before Justice Jesse c. Adkins.
Assistant United States Attorney

for the Government, explained that
Wolf has recently been a patient at
the Glenn Dale (Md0 Sanitarium.
He is expected to be sentenced
shortly, after the probation officer
has had opportunity to investigate
his case.
Nuckols, who committed suicide
after his trial, was indicted in three
cases, accused of running gambling
establishments in three places, but
went to trial with his companions
and was found guilty, Mr.. Hitz as
serted. Two defendants are still

was named only in two cases, to
which he pleaded guilty yesterday.

Committee Takes Up
Report 10 Kill Charge
Against Miss Perkins
Subcommittee's
Action Expected to
Gain Approval

The full House Judiciary Com
mittee today took under considera-
ton the recommendation of a SUBJ
committee that impeachment efforts
against Secretary of Labor Perkins
and two of her departmental ad-
visers be dismissed.
The subcommittee suggestion was
made late yesterday and Is fully ex-
pected to gain concurrence of the
full committee.
Accusations of laxity in enforce
ment Of the deportation laws were
made against Miss Perkins, Gerard
D. Reilly, solicitor of the depart
ment, and James L. Houghteling,
commissioner of immigration, by
Representative Thomas, Republican,
OF New Jersey.
To consider the charges and the
companion proposal that the three
officials be impeached, the Judiciary
Committee named a five-man sub
committee which has held hearings
and reviewed the facts during the
past three weeks. In its report yes
terday this subcommittee was
unanimous in recommending that
the proceedings be dropped On the
grounds nothing had been found to
justify further inquiry.
Two Republican members of the
subcommittee, while concurring in
this recommendation, suggested fur
ther that the department heads be
censured for alleged laxity in en-
forcing the immigration laws.
Principal criticism has centered
around the suspension of deporta-
ton proceedings against Harry
Bridges, Australian-born c. 1. O.
leader on the West Coast. The de-
partment has contended this case
and others, are being held up pend
Ing Supreme Court Qualification of
an issue now before the court.
