stated this morning. The workers visited all sections of Frederick in their assign- ment to record the city's needs for better housing. Some weeks of work will be re- quired. Mr. McSherry said, to tabulate the information and to make formal application for the housin? fund.

Much information has been received on the types of local hous- ing. and a surprisingly large part of certain areas has been classified a sub-standard. A map of the entire city, prepared in the office of John Shaw, secretary to the Au- thority. labels in black the sections designated as sub-standard. The records were taken on the basis of use of houses, rental paid, heat water, lighting and refrig- i eratioa conditions, income and size of the family, and other pertinent points.

It was learned in the course of the survey that a number of the Pearsons interviewed balked at the i question as to income, and the interviewers were instructed to withdraw the questions as to the larger income groups.

Sept. 1 Tydings. told a campaign audience last night that the administration offered to accept a compromise on the court reorganization bill last year provided Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes would resign. Speaking at suburban Hyattsville, Tydings asserted. "I was told that we would have to induce another member of the Court to resign.

We were asked to get Mr. Hughes to quit and I was told the name of the man who could persuade him to resign." Tydings' statement brought from Senator Logan. Dem, this comment: "I was perhaps as closely identified with the Supreme Court bill as anyone and I never heard any such suggestion made." Logan was chief lieutenant to the late Democratic leader Joseph T. Robinson in the drive to pass the Court bill. Tydings.

who faces the direct opposition of President Roosevelt in his fight for renomination, said he acted as spokesman for foes of the Court plan in offering a compromise proposal to the administration. Opponents of the bill. Tydings related, offered to accept the measure as written provided it did not apply to sitting members of the Supreme Bench. Tydings said he pointed out that Justice Van Devanter had retired and that there were reports Justice Sutherland also would step down. When representatives of the administration demanded that Hughes also resign before a compromise was accepted.

Tydings said, the opposition bioc refused to accept the condition. Soon afterwards, he recalled, Senator Robinson of Arkansas, died and administration forces offered to accept the original compromise proposal. Their offer was rejected and the bill was sent back- to the Judiciary committee. "In Fear Of My Life." He Admits And Didn't Want Trigger Men In Home. Xew York.

matched wits with defense counsel Lloyd Paul Stryker today. Only once did the witness drop his voice from a cocksure briskness, parrying Stryker's questions with answers that extended simple queries to many hundreds of words. The disbarred lawyer, ousted from the New York state bar when his connections with the Dutch Schultz "policy empire" became known, softened his voice when he admitted that his conscience finally bothered him about taking Schultz's trigger men and strong- armed mobsters into his mother's home. "Did it bother you?" demanded Stryker. "Yes." Davis replied solemnly.

"After awhile it did." "I was bothered all during my dealings with Schultz." Davis added. "I was in fear of my life."

Weeds A Menace, Says I Local Health Officer Dr. Kefanver Declares Lot Owners Won't Co-Operate In Aiding Health Of Community.

Noting a letter Wednesday to The News from a "taxpas'er" complaining of vacant lots on West Patrick street extended, which sport weeds more profusely than on July 18. when the Health Department made a plea against these health hazards. Dr. C. Kefauver.

county health officer, said Fredericktonians are not cooperating in this matter as they should. For many people the hay reason is at its peak. Weeds, still growing and going to seed to multiply for next year's crop of sneezes. are not only stirring up trouble for hay fever, asthma and other sufferers of allergy, but also increasing Frederick's crop of mosquitoes Dr. Kefauver said.

West Patrick street extended, mentioned in the letter, is not the only unsightly spot "I should think they'd be interested enough in the town to keep it as good looking and neat as possible, at any rate." the health officer said of the offenders. "There is no reason why we should have to sit down and send legal notices to everyone who is careless about weeds." he said. Pride in appearance and consideration for the city's health were cited zs sufficient stimulus to townspeople to keep weeds cut If not he said "it should be a matter for ins police department, io handle." as a city ordinance is being violated The approach of fall and winter does not mean weeds will dry ap and blow away until next spring. Dr Kefauver said they are now going to seed and should be cut before fall begins.

1 Hitler today summoned several army generals to confer with Konrad Henlein, leader of Czechoslovakia Sudeten Germans at Hitler's mountain retreat near here. By The Associated Fascist Italy today took drastic anti-JewLsn action its new campaign "for the defense of the Italian race'' while Europe's eyes, for omens of war, turned toward Germany and the United States. Rcichsfuehrer Hitler in Germany presumably was pondering two questions posed before an anxious Europe. They were: 1. What will the outcome be when the issue between the Czechoslovak government and the Nazi-supported, Sudeten minority reaches a showdown? 2.

If Chancellor Hitler is dissatisfied, will his decision mean war peace? confidence seemed to be returning that Europe could put the brakes on her sliDpjng security. Sections- of-r-the British press praised the United States interest in the issue and one paper predicted Roosevelt might send a warning to Hitler of "the dangers of seeking a violent solution." Konrad Henlein, leader of the Sudeten Germans, was on his way to see Hitler. Sir Nevile Henderson. British ambauador to Berlin, was said to be seeking an interview with the Fuehrer. The Italian cabinet, with Premier Mussolini presiding, decreed the expulsion of all Jews who have entered Italy since January.

1919. This many mean transfer of many Jews to Ethiopia, for the decree did not force them out of Italian East Africa.
