ConnoIIy Wants Navy
To Meet Texas in Bowl
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
Senator Connally, Democrat, of
Texas today telegraphed Rear Ad-
miral Russell Wilson, superinten-
dent of the Naval Academy, urging
that a post-season football game
be arranged for the Cotton Bowl
in Dallas between undefeated Navy
and either the University of Texas
or Texas A. and M.
Senator Connally forwarded q
telegram by Lewis Bailey, editor of
the Dallas Journal, saying the Long
horns would not leave the Cotton
Bowl under any circumstance" if
Navy were invited to play there
Otherwise, Mr.. Bailey said, the
Texas University team might &C
cept bids to either the Rose Bowl
or Sugar Bowl.
The editor said Cotton Bowl OIL
GERS would invite Navy to partici-
pate, regardless of the outcome OF
later Navy games.
Senator Connally telegraphed Ad-
miral Wilson that the game mot
only would be of great value to the
Navy, but would be a merited trib-
ute to that great section which Is
- outstanding in its loyalty tt
the United States and its foreign
policy and Is soiidly back Of the
Navy and its heroic personnel."

ton said portion of a body recov-
cred from the explosion area had
been brought there.
Intense Heat Described.
The explosion occurred on 4
Kanawha River island which houses
a large portion of the plant, but
damage to other buildings was con-
fined largely to broken windows.
Fire Chief Barrett said the ex-
plosion probably involved sulphuric
acid. He said he saws signs of that
chemical about the explosion scene.
A member of the medical staff at
one Charleston hospital where an
explosion casualty was taken said
he was told the heat was so intense
in the vinylite department of the
plant that it was impossible to get
near it,"
Vinylite, a resin plastic. is one
of the chief products of the chem
ical plant.
State Police Supt. John w. Bos-
worth, who took charge of the en-
tire company he assigned to guard
the plant, implied there were more
than two killed.
When the two deaths were men
toned, he said that you know
there were more killed than that

PITTSBURGH, Nov 6.-Art
Rooney, co-owner of the Pittsburgh
Steelers of the National Professional
Football League, said today that
Aldo Buff Donelli had resigned as
coach to return as mentor OF the
Duquesne University team, job he
quit when he joined the Steelers
five weeks ago.
Donelli's resignation from the pro
Job, Rooney said, was precipitated
by the refusal of Elmer Layden,
commissioner Of the pro league, to
allow Donelli to accompany Du-
Quesne to the West Coast for its
game with st. Mary's Sunday.
The Steelers play the Philadelphia
Eagles in a league game the same
day and Layden informed Rooney
that Donelli must resign his pro
Job if he accompanied the Dukes

BALTIMORE, Nov. 6.-The Mu-
nicipal Stadium gridiron, where
66 900 persons are expected to see
the Nbtre Dame Navy football game
Saturday, resembled an Irish bog to-
day-the result of rain that came
just as a re-sodding job was begun.
C. Markland Kelly, chairman of
the City Park Boards Stadium
Committee, said continued showers
would make the newly -SOdded center
section of the gridiron mushy and
that "at the very least" it would be
"a mighty tough job" to get the
field ready for the game.
"The Navy insisted that we put in
10000 square feet of sod where pre-
vious football games had worn the
field bald" Mr. Kelly said. They
notified us yesterday and we began
work Immediately.
1--WE had scheduled the compile
ton of the sod-laying for tomorrow
morning, with a double crew on the
lob today and tonight. The rain
makes it difficult to lay sod. 1t turns
to mud in YOUR hands"
Mr.. Kelly said tarpaulins didn't
help much because they had to be
removed in order to lay the sod and
that gives the field a fine chance to
become a swamp"
Heavy rollers were used to knit the
sod blocks together, but Mr.. Kelly
said that instead Of the sod blocks

Anti-InfIation Bill
Ways and Means Group
Putting Price Control
Ahead of New Tax Move
Earlier Story on Page A-9.)

BY the Associated Press.
Chairman Doughton announced
today the House Ways and Means
Committee had voted to defer tenn
porarily its consideration Of Treas
ury request for immediate study
of an anti-inf1ation tax program
designed to raise in the neighbor-
hood of $5,000,000, 900.
Mr.. Doughton said the desire of
the committee to see what happened
regarding the pending price control
bill might have had something to
do" with the deferment of the new
tax program.
The chairman declined to hazard
a guess as to when the tax matter
might be taken up again.
Pay Roll Deductions Proposed.
1t appeared unlikely, however, that
Congress would complete action on
it by the first of next year.
The Treasury had been desirous,
Mr.. Doughton said, Of making the
new measure effective as of January
l, 1912, and it was understood this
was for the purpose of beginning
collection then of new pay roll taxes
including higher levies for Social
Security purposes.
Some committee members said
that in addition to higher social Sc
curity taxes for both workers and
employers, the Treasurys proposal
called for higher income taxes which
probably would be deducted from
pay rolls by the employers.
The Treasury contends, it was
learned. that the defense program
has created between $1,000 900, ,OOO
and $4,000, 100000 Of excess purchas-
ing power which will not be reached
even by the s3,5OOOOO 900 tax pro-
gram imposed by Congress last sum-
mer and which thus constitutes a
grave threat to imitation.
Purpose Stirs Speculation.
There was conjecture in congress
sional circles as to whether the
latest tax program had been ad-
vanced at this time in an effort tc
stimulate sentiment for an ever
stronger price control bill than the
one reported last Saturday by the
House Banking Committee.
There was some talk that the
threat OF the unprecedented new tax
plan would convince Congress of the
need for a universal price control
plan under which not only COM
modify prices but wages, profits, in
vestments and all other phases of
the economic structure would be reg
ulated.
Under the bill recommended by
the Banking Committee. the Gov
ernment would have power to fix
prices on manufactured or processed
commodities which get 'out Of line
but would be prohibited from estab-
fishing ceilings for farm products
below either ITO per cent of their
parity price, below the market price
on October l or below the average
for 1919 to 1929, whichever were
highest.

Mr. McClain said it was apparent
the deaths were caused by some sort
of poisoning, but whatever it was he
did not know how the elephants
got it.
Henry Ringing North, circus ex-
ecutive, said the entire herd was
priceless in that it could not be i'm
medlately replaced. He added that
unframed elephants can be pur-
chased for $4,000 to $1,000. but they
are worth $4,000 to $4,000 each by
the time they have had long years
of circus training.
Frank Braden, publicity man
had said earlier that eight years
ago II elephants became i'll in
Charlotte, N. c., after grazing
on a lot near a large chemical plant
and seepage from this plant was
blamed. He said the circus played
this same lot Tuesday and there

Maine revealed his position in IA
vor of arming American merchant

the combat zones to let them sail

dangerous for America to have Ger
many dominant on the seas. He also
