 HITS TRUCK
Accident Occurs at Crossing -VerdiCt Returned
 After Probe

McAILEN, Texas, March 15. = Two witnesses to the crossing crash yesterday morning when a pas senger train hit truck broadside gave testimony yesterday
 These witnesses said Jose Ramon drove the truck carrying 42 Mexi- can laborers, fruit pickers, d. rectly in front of the train after slowing to 20 miles an hour in mak- ing a turn in the highway.
 Twenty-seven of those aboard the truck were killed and l5 injured, Four of the injured may die.
 Engineer Al Wilson said his train was going 45 miles an hour and he blew the whistle as usual for the crossing. He said he did not see the truck in time to throw on the emergency brakes, which at that, would not have averted the crash.
 Justice R. L. Savage conducted an all-day inquiry and last night the verdict was returned as "acciden- tai"

Tom Ti|son Expresses Faith in Historic City Build-
 ing Boom

Tom Tilson, owner of the Sitka Mercantile, largest private business in the Historic City, is Juneau visitor on brief business trip, taking time out occasionally to ex- toll the attractions of his city.
 Tilson says the town is thriving nicely and new homes are rising steadily. old swamp land between the town and Swan Lake is being drained and the land developed into homesites.
 Housing shortage in Sitka is still acute" Tilson said, with new ar rivals having to live in plain old shacks." but the Sitka merchant is firm in his belief that the build ing boom is not false boom.
 With enlargement of the Navy base. families of the Navy person. nel will compensate for the cer- tain loss in population when base workers leave, Tilson believes.
 Sitkans thought the towns popu- lation was over 2,000, and even considering the surprising census count of 1,945, are a bit disap- pointed, Tilson said.
 Tilson also warned against in- Aux of work-seekers, declaring that on institution of recent WPA streets projects work, "ll6 men applied Tor the S350 a day work

Drisco|| May Be Named
To Public Welfare Board

A. j. Driscoll, veteran civic leader
and confidant of numerous members
of Congress on District legislation
appeared today at the District
Building to be a likely choice of the
Commissioners for early appoint
ment as a member of the Board of
Public Welfare, to succeed one of
three members whose present terms
will expire at the end of this month.
The three present members whose
terms will expire June 30 are DR..
Henry j. Crosson, who has been a
member of the board since 1929;
Edgar Morris, former president of
the Board of Trade, and John r.
Pinkett.
In addition to these, it was re-
ported today, the commissioners
have received the resignation of
Mrs. George L. Harrison. who no
longer resides in the District. The
former wife of the late Admiral Cary
T. Grayson was appointed to the
board in 1898.
Strong support is said to have
been given Mr.. Driscoll, who for
many years has served as president
of the Mid-City Citizens Associa-
ton and who writes a newspaper
column on civic activities.
It is expected that a woman will
be named to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Mrs. Harrison
and that two of the three men whose
terms are about up will be NOM
mated for additional terms. Mem
bers of the Welfare Board receive
no salary.
