~ the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. Irwin
Kadens, one-man "crime wave"
protested vehemently in Grim
inal Court today against being
tried for petty offenses" and de-
manded trial on cases involving
the death penalty.
His aged mother joined in the hue
and cry of the tumultuous session
by screaming, my son, my son,
my son.
After peace had been restored
.the task of selecting a jury was
begun at Kadens' trial on a charge
Of robbing a West Side currency
exchange-the last of approx
mately IS crimes he confessed at
the end of an eight-week spree
Of robbery and criminal assault.
The defendant also has been in
dicted on two other charges of rob-
berry and one of criminal assault.
In addition, he faces possible pun
ishment for kidnapping a Detroit
couple and deserting from the
Army.
Shouts Request
When his attorney, Charles Bel
lows, made futile plea for a con-
tinuance, Kadens shouted.
Il protest any continuance as a
citizen and student of law.
Furthermore. I don't want to be
tried on these petty offenses There
are two death penalty cases against
me on which 1 demand to stand
trial"
His illusions to the death penalty
apparently were connected with the
desertion and abduction involving
violation of the Lindbergh law.
Denies Mental Illness.
Then Kadens' mother, Mary,
leaped to her feet, wailing. MY son,
my son. Ten thousand dollars. My
son."
(The financial phase of her
outburst evidently referred to the
amount of loot Kadens seized in
his robberies)
She was escorted from the court
room. Attorney Bellows then an
nounced he would try to show his
client was insane. But Kadens, wav-
tngs his fists, interrupted with:
Il resent the statement that I
am mentally sick"
Kadens' wife, Janet, who he de-
serted before he became bandit
and whom he has snubbed since his
capture October 10, said she would
stand by him.

Attacks Proposed
Freezing Of Jobs
ODT, VINO Are Criticized
For Alleged Plan to
Cover Western Stotes
BY the Associated Press.

Association today announced op-
position to proposal 1t attributed
to representatives of the War Man
power Commission and Office of De-
fense Transportation. Ito freeze

States to their jobs for the dura-
ton Of the war"
ODT and Manpower officials said
that no formal proposals had been
made and that the question had
simply been exploded and discussed
at a recent meeting in Chicago
with railway labor and management
representatives.
Government officials declined to
say which II States might be in
volved, while the Railway Labor As
sation said 1t did not have this in
formation.
1T is proposed by these repre-
sentatives of Government" said an
association statement, that the low
est paid workers in the railroad in
dustrye receiving generally 46 cents
per hour, be frozen in their jobs for
the duration of the war, because 1t
is claimed there exists shortage OF
this class OF labor in II Western
States. -
I'VE are opposed to freezing any
worker in his job. 1t is unnecessary
and will destroy production, wipe out
free labor and inevitably result in
abandoning our system of free enter
prise, ideals of human freedom and
democratic processes.
"It is unthinkable that working
people be frozen to their jobs under
a system of private profits
1t was also proposed. the associa-
ton said, to import Mexican labor
to supply further track mainte-
nance services.
The association, which claims to
represent some 100000 railway
workers, suggested program tc

The usual order Of things has
been reversed by William C. Ger
bich, whose hobby is painting. Mr..
Gerbich studied art with the in
tention of making 1t his livelihood
and now finds it fascinating avo-
cation.
In the first decade of this cen
tury he was living in New York,
and while there studied in the Art
Students League and the New York
School of Applied Arts. He had
aspirations toward being q maga-
zine illustrator, and friend con-
nected with large national month
ly magazine offered to present his
work to the publisher. Mr.. Gerbich
agreed and turned over a portfolio
for that purpose.
Through a combination of cir
cumstances beyond his control he
heard nothing from the publisher
for quite some time. Mr.. Gerbich
feared that his work had failed to
pass, and with an artist friend he
went to Fort Worth, Tex, where
they had heard there was oppor-
tunity for artists. This proved to
be very poor move, as there was
nothing to the rumor. When he was
down to his last few dollars Mr..
Gerbich received a letter from the
firm in New York telling him to
report for work.
Being almost broke and discour-
aged with the prospects Of making
a living out Of art, he made no
effort to 60 back to New York, but
dropped painting entirely and
turned to other fields. He has tried
many jobs In the intervening years
and in many places. finally achiev-
ing considerable success here In
Washington in the line of rea
estate.
Some four or five years ago Mrs
Gerbich persuaded her husband tt

Nems From Dogdom
Notes on a Variety of Subjects of Interest
In Washington and Vicinity
By X. X. Taynfon.

The Scottish Terrier Club OF
America is going right ahead with
Its plans to improve the breeding
of Scottish terriers and to bring
the show dogs closer to the standard.
Letters have been drafted and sent
to all club members, Scotty ex-
hibitors and Scotty judges calling
attention to prevalent Scotty faults
in both breeding and fitting These
letters have elected much favorable
comment and have already borne
fruit at the shows in the manner
of Scotty trimming The faults es-
pecially noted to date have been
excessive furnishings, poor eyes and
oversize.
A local kennel was recently visited
by couple who own 9-year-old
German shepherd For some rea-
son, they no longer cared to keep
the dog themselves. They stated
that he was vicious and unsafe with
strangers. However. they wished to
board the dog, and were very exact
ing In their demands as to the care
and Accommodations they desired for
their erstwhile pet. But they did
not feel they could pay more than
IS or, at the most, $40 month for
this care When advised to have
the dog hunanely destroyed, they
turned upon the kennel owners in
indignation.
Here was case of people who
wanted others to do for them that
which they no longer cared to do
for themselves, and yet were unwill-
ing to pay adequately for that serv-
ice. The payment they offered for
the care Of dangerous dog was
hardly sufficient for the dogs feed.
There was no balance for labor of
cleaning and maintenance, nothing
for rent Of runs, nothing for over
head. From the dogs standpoint,
he was being turned out of his
familiar home. away from, the only
people in the world he loved and
obeyed, and being put in the hands
of strangers who were prejudiced
against him by his very owners.
Would not he have chosen quick and
merciful end to such a life?
AS for the boarding kennel owners,
had they accepted the dog at any
price, they would have accepted a
very bad risk. A dog admitted by
his owners to be vicious is often
entirely intractable, and does more
damage than can be paid for in
many months. His presence is dis
couraging to the owners of other,
more welcome, boarders. And people
who tire OF their dogs, and profess
sedly want to get rid of them, are
very often poor pay" They pay the
flrst installment on their charges
and then conveniently forget them.
Too often, people who are too senti-
mental to make a final disposition
of their unwanted pets, have no
sentiment of conscience in their
dealings with man.

known in bridge circles as sand
wich" day, not that this particular
form of hasty lunch has any partic-
ular connection with the game, save
that it was a well-known bridge or
rather whist player who invented
or first designed 1t. 1t Is recounted
by those who are up on the history
of the game and incidents associated
with it, that on August 5, 1852. John
Montagu, the fourth Earl Of Sand
witch, played whist all day and all
night at famous London club, or
perhaps 1t was coffee house where
it was popular in those days, and
did not conclude his game until
dawn on the morning Of the 9Th.
The Earl had been so engrossed In
his play that he had neglected to
eat dinner or supper on the day
before. In consequence, when 1t
was decided to end the game. he was
very hungry. Throwing down his
cards he ordered the waiter to bring
him slice of beef between two
pieces of bread" and thus the sand
wich was born" and has ever since
been the standard and quick service
order OF every eating house In
England and America, as well as q
picnic necessity.
only one more regional bridge
event remains to be played this sea-
son in this area. It is the fifth
annual Southern Appalachian cham
