Alma Schultz Of the Maryland
District League fired q score Of

place both in scratch and gross
standing in the women's division

city-wide rolloff, so far. of lat.
Gordon Bartoo of the Prince
Georges Commercial League rolled
64-721 to place fifth in the mems
gross standing and Murray Rosie,
member Of the same league, marked
up 54-706 to land eighth.
Mrs. Schultz fell one stick shy of
the high scratch for women, shot
by Evelyn Naylor at Rosslyn, and
seven under Mrs MAYORS top gross
of 26-417. Miss Pettit's lat beat
out Mrs. MAYORS 143, previous high,

Miss Petit opened with lat, then
skidded to 88 and 100 Another fair
star at Silver Spring was Mildred
Peacock with 26-368, which made
her a prospective prize winner.
For stretch of six boxes, the
Silver Spring proprietor. Hugh Ar
baugh. probably was the hottest
bowler in the tournament last night.
In the second string. on top of a
strike, he hit for five straight single
pin breaks and in each instance the
tenth stick wobbled. With luck he
could have counted six straight
strikes. He missed only the last
break and chalked up a score of
l52. With other strings of 115, l12,
l35, 135 he totaled 50-699. which
gave him the mems lead at his own

President Studies
Suggestions 10 Aid
Migratory Workers
'Ookies' and 'Arkies'
Topic Of Findings
By Special Committee
By the Associated Press.


President Roosevelt explored rec
concentrations today for betterine
the lot of the Nations migrant
population-the storied "Okies" and
"Arkies"-through greater Federal
financial aid and greater protection
against labor exploitation.
A specially-appointed committee
submitted its findings and sugges..
tions to him in report which he
personally requested.
This committee, headed by Miss
Josephine Roche. former Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury, described
the problem as one of great propor-
tlons.
The nomad workers of this coun-
try number millions" the report
said Probably 100000 of them
look to agriculture for living and
at least as many to industry +
third of them are children"
The report proposed that gem
eral relief program should be estab-
lshed on Federal-State basis.
Federal funds being made on a
variable grant basis similar to
those allocated to States under the
social security program. It also
urged expansion of the Farm Sc
curity Administrators system Of
migrant workers camps.
To protect migrants against labor
exploitation, the committee rec
commended legislation empowering
the Federal Government to regulate
interstate labor contractors.
The report pointed out that labor
Tor many seasonal industries was
recruited at distant points, often
through a labor contractor. Because
these contractors usually carry their
offices under their hat, so to speak,
they escape State regulation, the
report said
In this connection, the committee
also advocated legislation controll-
ing the interstate transportation Of
recruited migrant workers by truck,
the expansion of the Farm Place
ment Service, protection of migrant
children against employment at too
early an age and continued appli-
cation of the Wage-hour law to
migratory workers now covered.
The committee proposed a series
of regional-Federal-State confer
ences to promote public under
standing of the migratory labor
problem.
