On the administration's side these included general application of the "prudent investment" theory in determining power rates, elimination of write-ups in property valuations and resumption of construction on a broad scale.

To restore this, he proposed modification of the Utilities Holding Company Act, a compromise on distribution of Tennessee valley au- NORRISTOWN. Dec. 21 (P) The Federal Bureau oflnvestigation took a hand today in the wide-spread quest for Wendell Forrest Bowers, sorght in connection with the slaying of Mrs. Wilma V. Carpenter, attractive widow, a week ago.

U. S. Attorney J. Cullen Ganey said yesterday a federal warrant was issued on information from Montgomery County authorities that the fugitive crossed the state line. This, he said, permitted federal Intervention.

Reports cropped up almost hourly of new suspects being questioned at widely scattered points in several states. The search began after Miss Mary Griffin, companion of Mrs. Carpenter the night ot the slaying in the Carpenter home, said a police photograph of Bowers was the intruder. The investigation went yesterday to the Huntingdon. reformatory, from which Bowers.

This startling total of industrial mishaps recorded in November is U3 per cent than the previous month's level, according ti Ralph M. Bashore. of Labor and Industry, although three percent below the average for the first 11 months of 1937. Seventeen deaths and 3,035 injuries were recorded in manufacturing industries.

Five workers were killed in plants making lumber four in iron and steel mills and three in transportation eqj'p-ment factories. Coal mines were responsible for 38 deaths, seven lost their lives on construction jobs, two each died violently in the retail and wholesale trades, eleven met death on railroads and three othersw ere killed in state and municipal employment. Compensation awards during November in G9 fatal, 340 permanent disability and 4.836 temporary disability cases totaled $1,064,000.

He expressed willingness to "prudent investment" theory, unrler which rates arc fixed on the basis of money actually invested in prvsical properties without taking replacement costs into account.

Carlisle told Mr. Roosevelt he expected his two companies to undertake of construction in the next two years. "The Works Progress Administration is provided with lists of persons on relief without, however, the amount ot the relief grant. From such lists, assignments are made to works projects. When the people so assigned fail to report, further investigation indicates numerous instances where they a'-e no longer eligible for relief, and probably were not eligible for some time prior to assignment to the works projects.

other cases, reported by the Works Progress Administration to the department, of persons failing to report as assigned, further investigation, and are continued indefinitely on relief rolls. The Works Progress Administration, being uniformed as to the amount of the grants, has no means of se- lecting for works projects relief cases receiving high grants. Relief cases receiv ing high grants often fail to report to works project as- sigiimcnts for the reason that the amount of the relief grant exceeds works projects wanes by a few dol-! lars a month.

Garner, who made the investigation there, sa'tl he had notified Principal Cyril C.

This would provide an es for the gas. Dr. Garner said a similar hazard was discovered recently at Pitts-! burgh hosoital.

JAPS' DRIVE ON RICH CITIES Continued from Page One were not fired at Jananese troops. a he had siri yrtevday in a report which contrad'cled essential details as told by American and other sur- vivors. Advices received by the United Slates Flagship Augusta said Tsing- tao was quiet. Chinese, however, expected an attack in retaliation for destruction of rich Japanese cotton mills by Chinese troops. Japanese I placed the extent of damage at about $87,000,000.

Additional fears of reprisal were aroused by Ihe Japanese spokes- man's report that a number otSh n- tung province coal mines owned jointly by Chinese and Japanese were destroyed. He Chinese damaged the properties to the extent of $4,000,000. Fears were expressed that Hankow would be cut off from other Chinese cities by warfare in Shan- tung province and in south China which would sever rail and air services to'Hongkonk and rail service to Tsinglao. Foreign Officials in Hankow arranged evacuation of the 300 refugees on board the Woosung by an international train to Canton. The British Cruiser Capetown, which had been bottled up in the middle Yangtze was able to clear the Ms- tung boom which held up passage of the refugee steamer.

Arrangements also were underway for evacuation of the United States Embassy and 300 United States citizens from Hankow. Tnc Japanese served notice thai their troops would continue the advance into the interior unless Chin- ese ceased resistance. General lwane Matsui. Japanese commanl-er. said his troops were resting now but soon would new drives.

There were indications th: while throwing a protective semi-circle of guns and bayonets around Nanking the Japanese would concentrate the bulk of their military power in south China instead of in an attack on Hankow. Japanese announced that 39 foreigners, including 15 Americans, were safe at Wuhu. Rrilain Acts Great Britain is considering a show of naval might lo impress Japan, at war with China, and hoped today American and French -nitiin5 u-nnlrf ioin in Far Ivnvt- I ern parade which might check I "Japan's aim to dominate China to of U. S. Citizens the complete exclusion of foreign interests." Attacks against American and British gunboats are the current cause of resentment, but the basic cause is that Britain fears Japan will try to ease out other nations with economic interests in the Orient Britain concentrated her naval force in the Mediterranean in 1935 and inspired sanctions against Italy by 52 nations.

Both actions roused Premier Mussolini's resentment but did not deter him. He went ahead and now Ethiopia is part of the Italian empire. One deterrent to a British naval show in Oriental waters is continued unrest along the Mediterranean and British reluctance to withdraw any considerable number of warships now there. This may be solved, however, by delegating to the Mediterranean fleet the job of keeping watch while Spain fights out her bitter civil battle that tody centered about Teruel. 135 miles east or Madrid.

Thousands were reported killed in Madrid government attack to capture the Insurgent city. It could easily be arranged for Ihe French fleet to take over for the British. The Franco-British navies and armies are linked in mutual assistance agreement. To this was added today an accord for cooperation between air forces of the two nations, said a highly placed French politcal informant. And.

in fear that Fasrist countries may become uppermost in Europe's power juggling show, the French government announced strengthening of alliances with central European nations. French Foreign Minister Yvon Delbos did the diplomatic work on his recent tour. A general European peace settlement is the ultimate objective. Present value of the alliances, however, is a card against Germany in any preliminary negotiations. There was little definite action in China today, hut Japanese troop and warships movements aroused fear of a coastal drive south and west of Shanghai toward Canton, capital of the southern Chinese government.
