Hugh S. Johnson resigning the reply of President Roosevelt and I have felt for some time that NRA has fulfilled its first chase and calls for revision of its organization, that I am ac cepting your resignation, io take effect Oct. 15, as you suggest, in order that you may study the records preliminary to the making of your final report. I repeat what I have so often said to you that I am ahppy not only in our friendship and your loyalty, but that in a time of great stress and fear your courage, enthusiasm and energy were a very potent factor in restarting a stalled machine. More than that it will always be remembered that under you the NRA, in only a little over a year, accomplished long overdue reforms in our social and business structures.

The elimination of child labor, the recognition of the principles of a fair wage and of collective bargaining, and the first efforts to eliminate unfair practices within business these, among many others, are chalked up to your credit. I hope much that during these next few months you will get a thoroughly deserved rest, and that then you will be able to help me further in the new duties and new tasks of public service. I shall see you in Washington very soon. Faithfully yours, (Signed) FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT.

TWO HURT WHEN ELEVATOR FALLS AFTER CABLE BREAKS Employes of Bensinger Furniture Co. Drop Two Floors; Lift Recently Inspected. Two employes of the Bensinger Furniture and Stove 100 South Twelfth street, were seriously injured yesterday afternoon when the company elevator, on which they were riding, fell two and a half floors to the basement. Joseph Gilbert, Negro, 2935 Franklin avenue, and Zeke Loesch, also a Negro, were transporting a load of steel folding chairs from the third floor to the basement when the cable of the elevator broke. Firemen were called to remove the injured men from the wreckage.

Gilbert suffered fractured ribs, lacerations and internal injuries. Loesch's skull was fractured. Both men were taken to City Hospital No. 2. Charles Powers, 2119 Salisbury street, was cut and bruised by flying: chairs in the basement, but did not leave his work.

26. Public Works Administrator Ickes announced yesterday an additional PWA allotment of $3,000,000 to the Soil Erosion Service. He said PWA now has allocated a total of to carry on the conservation woik undertaken by the Inte- jHor Department in co-operation with local interests in combating soil erosion. An initial allotment of $10,000,000 was made when the Soil erosion service was set up last i year as a division of the Interior Department. A second allotment of $5,000,000 was announced Sept.

10. nOLLOWINO is the letter of as administrator of KRA, and accepting the resignation: GEN. JOHNSON'S LETTER NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 1934. DEAR MR.

PRESIDENT: The reorganization of NRA, which has been the subject of so many conferences and memoranda between us, is becoming momentarily more urgent. We are in agreement upon the general form of reorganization and I do hope you will now also see eye-to-eye with me on the subject of my resigning from a job which as reorganized seems altogether superfluous. Added to this are private considerations which are becoming more and more poignant. I therefore urge again your acceptance of my resignation. Our cordial and warm relations over so long a time make it unnecessary to say that you will continue to have my loyalty and, when circumstances permit, my services in the new duties you have in mind.

While I feel that my executive responsibility should cease at once, may I suggest that this resignation be effective October 15, in order to give me time to make such study of records as will enable me to make my final report. Sincerelv, (signed) HUGH S. JOHNSON. REPLY OF PRESIDENT. HYDE PARK, N.

Sept. 25, 1934. Dear Hugh: It is because you HUSBAND AND WIFE CONVICTED OF KIDNAPING AND ROBBERY Jurv Recommends That Alleged Abductors of Lon Chaney's Friend Be Eligible for Parole. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 26.

Lyn- den Parker and his wife, Hoy, face life terms today for kidnaping and robbing John Jcske, one time com panion of the late Lon cnaney, screen star. A Superior Court jury yesterday convicted them on three counts. The kidnaping conviction in Cali fornia carries a life sentence, but the jury recommended that the pair be elegible for parole. Four other persons who pleaded guilty to similar charges, named Mrs. Parker as instigator of the plot in which Jeske and his bride were abducted and robbed.

Jeske said the abductors apparently were seeking an $8000 ring left him by-the late Mrs. Chaney, widow of the actor. SECOND DEATH IN SNOWSTORM SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26. Clear skies and rising temperatures promised relief today for parties snowbound in the Far West by an early winter storm in which two men died from exposure and a woman disappeared.

The body of Henry Pedroni, 56 years old, Salinas (Cal.) business man, was found yesterday in the snow in the coast range of Northern California. A miner was found dead in the northern Sierra Ne-vadas Monday. Mrs. Olga Kauger vanished in the storm in Wyoming and no trace of her had been found No word had been received from Roy Andrus, who set out with a dog team to aid 15 deer hunters marooned near Rubicon Springs but little fear was felt for their safety. Another party of seven hunters still was marooned near Steamboat Bluff.

JOHNSON OUT; NEW NRA SETUP TO BE ANNOUNCED Continued From Page One. tor. She worked the same killing hours, dashed around the country by airplane with him, cooked his favorite dishes in a little kitchenette off his sanctum, and saw that he stopped work long enough to eat.

"Ask the little skirt she knows," Johnson often would say when some obscure question was asked. Son of a family that pioneered covered wagon days, Johnson is a self-made man. At oA me renrea GppiArnl ran hnast that he took a Jeading part in meeting two of his country's greatest crises. Work in the World War. He practically wrote arid then ad ministered the selective draft in World War days.

There is a story that a doctor was assigned then to follow him around and make him quit work long enough to sleep. That was a forerunner of the time when he devoted 16, 18, 20 hours a day to putting nearly all American industry under codes of fair competition and building up a new Government organization that numbers about 3000 employes. Using a vocabulary that drew on all literature from Shakespeare to Mr. Dooley, he stormed and fumed his way through many a tough spot, hurtling apparently insurmountable obstacles in code-making for the steel, bituminous coal, automobile and other industries. On his opponents he pinned terms such as "Neanderthalers" and "Tories." Between the two vast job he performed for the Government the draft and the NRA he earned as high as $100,000 a year as an associate of Baruch.

There were reports today that he has received offers of up to $150,000 a year from private concerns. Praise From Roosevelt. President Roosevelt, in his letter praising Johnson for his "courage, enthusiasm and energy," gave an indication of the features of NRA that he considers especially valuable. He said: "The elimination of child labor, the recognition of the principles of a fair wage and of collective bargaining, and the first efforts to eliminate unfair practices within business these, among many others, are chalked up to your credit." There have been intimations that the outspoken address of the General recently criticising the attitude of the textile workers in their strike irked all administration officials. The weariness of the General had been subject of the President's concern, and several weeks ago he suggested that Johnson take a long rest a European cruise.

Johnson left that conference, which also included Secretary Perkins and Richberg, and wrote out a letter of resignation. Roosevelt prevailed on him to reconsider, and take a vacation. Apparently, the Dreacn between Johnson and Miss Perkins and Richberg failed to heal. Half a dozen times or more, in Washington and in the Bethany Beach (Del.) vacation cottage, which the Recovery Administrator occupied, there have been reports that he was ready to quit. Little Activity lately.

For the last few days "the Administrator has been in and out of Washington, and during that time has had virtually nothing to do with the big machine which he brought into being. Johnson's break with labor came about 12 days ago, opened by an address in which he accused the onuea lextne Workers of violating an agreement in calling their strike. Vehemently denying the charge, the union's leaders called for the General's resignation, asserting he had demonstrated himself "unfit" to hold office. Board Upheld Union. The Presidential Textile Strike Mediation Board, headed by Gov.

Winant of New Hampshire, which investigated the causes of the strike, largely upheld the contention of the union regarding this dispute. Roosevelt said nothing, but it was regarded as significant that he approved the Winant report with no reservation on this or any other point which it contained. Johnson's estimate of the results of NRA was 3,000,000 more jobs and $3,000,000,000 more purchasing power. To settle a touch controversy, Johnson had his own method. Opposing parties would be separated into adjoining rooms and the administrator would go from one to another making new propositions, offering ways to compromise.

Eventually agreements were reached. Never once did Johnson resort to FIVE WOMEN IN AUTO CRASH BURN TO DEATH Car Collides With Trailer-Truck on Highway in Ohio. By the Associated Press. ADA, Sept. 26.

Five women were burned to death in the wreck of their automobile, after a colli sion with trailer-truck on the Harding highway, two miles south of here, yesterday. The dead: Mrs. Hamilton E. Hogc, 56, wife of the Common Pleas Judge of Hardin County; Mrs. Walter T.

TALMADGE OF GEORGIA Write If Off and There Wouldn't Be Any Farm Problems, He Says.

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO. Sept. 25. Governmental participation in private business was criticised yesterday by Gov.

Eugene Talmadge of Georgia, in speaking on the Georgia day program at a Century of Progress Exposition. "If the processing tax were writ ten off, there wouldn't be any farm problem in this country," he said, "but of course a lot of patronage jobs would be lost." He said the way to bring back prosperity in this country was to put money into the hands of those who spend it, and he characterized the farmer as the real spender, explaining that "when money gets into his hands it doesn't stay there long." MERCHANT KILLED BY GAS St. Charles Man Extinguished Flame Accidentally. Samuel H. Polski of St.

The jury found a water pan on the stove and a bottle of smelling salts nearby. Polski is survived by his widow, a daughter, Evelyn, and two sons, Irvin and Lester, who found the body on his return from school.

The proposed $5,878,000 bond is-6ue for trunk sewers in the newly formed St.

Louis County Sanitary Sewer District was disapproved by a sweeping majority in an election yesterday. With two-thirds majority required for passage, only 8156 favorable votes were cast, against 10,320 unfavorable. Webster Groves was the only community in the district, incor porated or unincorporated, where the necessary majority was obtained, though simple majorities were returned in Richmond Heights, Brentwood, Ferguson, the Pine Lawn-Jennintrs district and in the residential villages west of Clayton. University City, where opposition to the district had centered, cast the most decidedly unfavorable vote 2333 against and 256 for. Some precincts there cast as few as 10 favorable votes.

Trustees Elected. The three trustees selected, out cf a field of 28, were Roy Jablonsky, former county highway engineer, who received 4583 votes; Wilbur T. Trueblood, architect, 3250; and Fred E. Evens, automobile dealer, 08. Trustees will manage the affairs of the district but will receive no salaries until a bond issue is approved.

A new bond proposal cannot be submitted until two years from next April, when a new trustee will be elected. Jablonsky is to serve six years, Trueblood four years and Evens two. In the vote on the bonds only 16 voting precincts, out of a total of 102, returned two-thirds majorities. Twenty-four others cast simple majorities. A total of 132 precincts were represented in the district but 44 were only partially within the boundaries.

Thirty precincts of the latter description were merged with others for the purposes of this election. How Towns Voted. The bond issue vote in the towns, besides University City, was as follows: Webster Groves. 1634 for, 626 against; Clayton, 379 for, 499 against; Richmond Heights, 366 for. 259 against; Brentwood (including a small pu.ion of Maplewood), 197 for, 142 agai Kirkwood (only about half the tow.

included in the district), 353 for, 43' against; Ferguson, 319 for, 268 ainst. In the unincorporated areas the vote was: Fine Lawn-Jennings, 1303 for, 1301 against; 969 for, 1442 against; Luxemburg-Gar-denville, 604 for, 807 against, pnd the Ladue- McKnight Huntleigh Deer Creek village district, 331 for, 199 against. Election officials were surprised at the light vost cast 18,476 out cf a total of about 71,000 registered voters in the district. An active campaign for the bonds had been waged by the County Chamber of Commerce and other civic organizations since incorporation of the district last month. Factors in Defeat.

Opponents attributed defeat of the bond proposal largely to the attitude of taxpayers' resulting from operation of the Ralph sewer law, under which several districts levied more than $1,000,000 in preliminary taxes in order to pay substantial fees to engineers and attorneys. No ewers were built, however, due to jeyeai ui ine law in XV61. It was noted in yesterday's results that much of the strongest opposition to the bond issue was in areas taxed under the Ralph law. Another factor in the defeat, and one viewed with considerable alarm by bond proponents even before the election, was the unexpected filing of 28 candidates for the three trusteeships. It was thought that many voters became suspicious of a proposal of which the manage-aont was" so popular.

Trustees are given wide powers of control, though limited in comparison with provisions of the Ralph law. The present law, passed at the last session of the Legislature, was drafted by attorneys representing civic organizations and designed to eliminate the abuses possible under the Ralph legislation. To Lose PWA Grant. Defeat of the bond proposal will mean cancellation of a $1,349,000 grant from the PWA, which was to have been used for raying principal and interest on the bonds for the first three and a half years of the 20-year amortization period. Girard C.

Varnum, president of the County Chamber, in a statement on the election last night, ald, "It is the will of the pecn pie, therefore binding. In framing the law we provided that the people of St. Louis County should decide for themselves democratically on the sewer problem.

He is 43 year? old and has been in the insurance business since his defeat for re-election as Highway Engineer in 1932. He had served in that office since Trueblood, residing at 751 Yale avenue. University City, is 60 years old, has been an architect since 1906, and has offices in the Chemical Building. His candidacy had the support of many proponents of the bond proposal.

Evens is 34 years old, lives on Lorenzo road, McKnight Village, and is president of the Fred Evens Motor Sales Clayton. He was formerly assistant superintendent of construction for the Shell Petroleum Corporation and was unsuccessful candidate for Republican nomination for Highway Engineer in 1932.

FIEDLER PUTS SELF UNDER PROTECTION OF COUNTY SHERIFF Continued From Page One. made an oral motion before Judge Nolte that the entire panel be discharged because of the publication in yesterday's Post-Dispatch of a resume of the high points in the State's case against the fcur defendants in the Kelley kidnaping, as brought out from witnesses under oath in a bail bond hearing and in depositions taken by the defense, and previously published. Judge Nolte overruled the motion after hearing brief arguments in his chambers. At the close of the sessions of Monday and yesterday the Court strictly warned the prospective jurors not to read newspaper stories on the kidnaping case, coupling the admonition with a warning that they were to permit no one to discuss the case with them.

21 Veniremen Accepted. The first venireman examined by State and defense this morning was accepted as the twenty-first mem ber of the preliminary panel. He was Edward Julius, unemployed printing pressman, 823 Brownell avenue, Glendale. Julius said he had operated a paper in Belleville for 20 years, and later had worked as a pressman for the East St. Louis Journal and the Watchman-Advocate in St.

Louis County. Herbert Brandes, farmer, of Chesterfield, who was questioned after Julius, also was accepted. He was the fiftieth venireman to be examined in the jury selection and the last of two groups assigned to Judge Nolte's Court for the trial. A group of 20 more was ordered to the courtroom from the court of Judge Mueller, who has charge of the petit jury this week, and the selection process continued. The first of the new group of veniremen, Charles B.

Barthels, 521 Lagro avenue, was rejected by the Mate because of prejudice against imposition of capital punishment. The next was accepted by both sides, the twenty-third of the preliminary panel. He was August F. Poertner, farmer, of Allenton. William Pfeiffer, farmer, of Fen-jected by the State for scruples against capital punishment, as also was George Hoernschemever.
