a a a a a a I HERALD, TUESDAY, APRIL 12, 1938 THE DAYTON Officer, Three Bandits Shot In Night Club Raid NEW YORK, April three bandits A policeman were wounded early today in a battle in a Greenwich Vilpistol lage cabaret. One bandit surrendered with 8 revolver in each hand. He had been wounded slightly. The other bandits and the policeman were wounded SO critically that they may die. The music had stopped for the night, the dance floor was cleared and 50 hangers-on were gathered in the club room on the second floor, above the dance hall, when a grim-faced young man in a gray overcoat entered.

He had a gun in his hand. Two other men in the crowd produced pistols, but instead of opposing the intruder, they helped him. The three men herded the 50 patrons to the cellar, which was used as a kitchen for the Howdy club. One employe escaped to the street, however, and summoned police. The first police radio car to the scene brought Patrolman Humbert Maruzzi and a companion.

They pounded on the door, received no answer, then shot the lock off and forced their way inside. There was another burst of gunfire inside. More police cars came, each with a pair of policemen. Maruzzi was carried out, shot through the head, and taken to a hospital in a dying condition. Two of the bandits, bleeding profusely from critical wounds, also were taken out.

One was semi-conscious and could identify himself only AS Jim. The other said he was Chester Parson, 27. The bandit only slightly wounded said he was Francis Degnan, 28. Physicians believed that all three might die. Order Of Labor Board Will Be Fought By Firm CHICAGO, April (UP)Inland Steel company officials said today they believed the National Labor Board's order for the company to negotiate and sign an agreement with the Steel Workers Organizing Committee was that they would "erroneous," with the order until it has been upheld by the federal courts.

The board's ruling, announced April 6, said the company's refusal to bargain with the union, an affiliate of the Committee for Industrial Organization, and to sign a contract if an agreement was reached, was a violation of the Wagner act. J. H. Walsh, Inland works manager, said the company would ask the U. S.

circuit court of appeals to set aside the ruling. His stand was revealed in letters to Leonard C. Bajork, NLRB regional director, and Van A. Bittner, SWOC regional director. "In our opinion," Walsh said, "the decision of the board is erroneous and we are preparing immediately to file a petition in the United States courts to review and set aside the board's order.

We shall accordingly postpone conferences pursuant to the order until the courts have passed upon it." He said the company would be glad to continue to meet and deal with the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers of North America as the representative of its members only. Death Keeps Tryst With Detroit Girl DETROIT, April Inevitable death came last night to 16-year-old Jean Cavanaugh, pretty victim of a disease that never has been cured. Day after day her smiled, dry-eyed, 88 they visited in her flowerbanked hospital room. knowing that medical science offered no hope. Jean's case attracted so much attention that the Wayne County Medical society issued a bulletin explaining the peculiarities of her disease, lympathic lukemia.

MARIE, April a dramatic courtroom reconstruction of the shooting of Helen Grier, counsel for Vernon Spencer, former major league baseball player, hoped today to free him from a charge that he killed the girl in their north woods hunting lodge last Oct. 28.

The defense summoned its remaining witnesses today and believed that its case would be completed before nightfall. For the north country folk who have jammed the courtroom every day since the start of the trial a a week ago the climax of the court drama was still to come. They have followed every phase of the trial in the hope that Spencer might be called to the witness stand to tell the story of his forest idyll with the winsome Pontiac, stenographer. The defense maneuver by which Spencer hoped to escape the gallows introduced the expert testimony of Dr. I.

H. Erb, Toronto pathologist. Using a dressmaker's dummy, a wooden reproduction of a human skull, and a table, Erb re-enacted his version of the death scene. The table, he said, represented the sink near which Miss Grier's body was found. By demonstrating with the wooden skull, Erb sought to show that because of the angle at which a rifle bullet entered Miss Grier's head, Spencer could not have shot her unless he was under the sink.

Bomb Exploded At Union Hall KANSAS CITY, April 12. -(UP)-A dynamite bomb early today destroyed the front end of a building occupied by a unit of the United Automobile Workers of America. Several families were asleep inside the building, headquarters of Ford Motor company unit of the union. A strike against the Ford company has been in progress since December. Vernon Eaton, a union member who lives in the building, awoke to smell a fuse burning.

He aroused other occupants, families of union workers who have lost their homes during the strike, and they had time to vacate the building. Eaton was taken to a hospital suffering from shock. He later was released. The explosion was the second of the night. Earlier, a fruit market in tenement district was damaged by a bomb which apparently WAS thrown from a passing automobile.

Congressional sources said that this would maintain relief at 2.500.000.

It also was indicated that the president plans to ask for 000.000 to continue the civilian conservation corps at present strength, $150,000,000 for the farm security administration, and 000.000 for the national youth ad- ministration. Three-Way Plan. This appeared to make a threefold program as follows: 1. $1,500,000,000 for relief as outlined.

2. $1,500,000,000 for public works, previously revealed through congressional sources. 3. $1.500.000,000 of loans to business through the Reconstruction Finance corporation. Two other spending items are considered but it is not being, whether they will be included in the $4,500,000,000 total.
