22 (P). Police today continued their efforts to uncover the facts surrounding the death of Charles E. Wetzel of Philadelphia, advertising manager for the U. G. whose body was found in the Jordan Creek early Saturday morning.

Stories told by the men detained are being checked up and an intensive canvass of garages being made in an effort to locate the big sedan which James Casper, who found the body in the stream, said he saw near where Wetzel was found. Tire marks indicate that the machine might have slid over an embankment and be come disabled and possibly had to be towed away.

The New Deal effort to transfer 3.500,000 needy from relief rolls to payrolls by November 1, today faced the herculean task of supplying a daily average of 64,094 Jobs for forty days. For its accomplishment, officials counted heavily on the outcome of conferences this week with President Roosevelt A renewed effort to inject vital'ty Into a works machine apparently stalled despite revisions was scheduled upon his return from Hyde Park, N.

tomorrow. Mr. Roosevelt planned to spend most of the week at the White House for the purpose of Jacking up the sagging Job campaign. To achieve the November goal he set for ending direct relief, 2.563,782 persons must be given work In addition to the 936,218 already on Harry L. Hopkins' Job list.

Pastor Opposes Sunday Movies Rev. Mr. Mumbulo Fears Sabbath Will Become "Pagan Holiday" The Rev. Verner S. Mumbulo, pastor of Asbury M.

E. Church, preach ing yesterday morning on the sub jeot, "Sunday Movies," said: "The pressure for Sunday movies in Scran ton does not come, in my opinion, from the masses but, rather, from small groups which will profit by this further commercialization of the Lord's day." "I am irrevocably opposed to Sunday movies on two grounds," he continued. "The first is that a furthei commercialization of the day will destroy very much of the significance of this Christian Holy Day, transforming it, for all practical purposes, Into a pagan holiday. The second reason is that America needs one day in whioh. as another has suggested, its citizens 'may pause long enough to take a time exposure of seem to be living with only an occasional snapshot of our Creator and it is small wonder that He seems so unreai to us." The Rev.

Mr. Mumbulo concluded by saying, may rest assured thai the same groups who have contended for an open Sunday in Scranton and who have, and still do, support the various commercialized projects on this day will be found solidly backing the movement for the showing of motion pictures on Sunday in our city. Would that it might be so definitely stated that all those who claim to hold Christian beliefs and practice Christian precepts will be found as definitely in opposition to the opening of Sunday to this further commercialization." Local Vets to Attend Philadelphia Reunion A large delegation of local World War veterans will be among the 500 from New England, Middle Atlantic and Central states who will attend the sixteenth annual reunion of the 316 Infantry, 79th Division, A.

While numerous technical objections rcre entered to the returns as recorded nothing In the nature of an election contest developed. Attorney J.

Julius Levy, representing County Commissioner John P. "Barber" Healey, protested the vote in the Second Ward, Mayfield, where William J. slated with Chief County Detective M. F. Lawler for the Democratic nomination to County Commis iioner, received 221 votes to 76 for Healey.

Attorney Levy pointed out that the voters' registration list in the ward showed alterations in the party affiliation of 76 electors that number being changed over from Republican to Democrat. A rubber stamp was ussd to cancel the Republican registration record and change it to Democrat. The change, the lawyer contends, was made after the book left the County Commisicn3rs' office and was received by the board. Levy asked that the returns be put aside temporarily pending court action. The returns from the district were signed by Andrew Powlack, Judgs; Anthony Miles, Inspsctor, and James Orlard, Inspector.

Geiger Objects to Dunmore Returns Among the objections entered by Geiger, through Attorney Stanley F. Coax, was on; against the returns from the Third District, Sixth Ward, Dun more. The open returns in this district gave Jaiger 93 votes. The sealed returns indicated that he had not re ceived a vote. Should the sealed returns in the Dunmore district stand Healey will unquestionably receive the nomination.

On the open returns Healey is claiming the nomination by about 200 votes while Geiger says his figures show him to bs the nominee by about 80 votes. The Mayfield Second Ward returns proved disappointing to Attorney M. J. Martin, Republican nominee for Common Pleas Judge. In this district the open returns gave Martin 237 votes; Judge T.

Linus Hcban, 28 and Attor ney John J. Owens, 8 on th Republican ticket. The sealed returns credited Martin with 137 votes, a hundred less than on the open sheet. There was no change in the Hoban and Owens figures.

Harding, General Superintendent of Public Woiks, again yesterday said that any employes of the department who feel that they have any complaint to make as to tlwlr working hours or conditions should take up their grievances with the committee of the Public Works Employes' Union.

"The organization has Its own grievance committee, and any workers who feel that they have a legitimate protest should take it up with that Harding said. He refused to comment further on reports that certain employes of his department have been "laid off" because of their activity in the recent primary campaign for candidates other than those supported by Mayor Stanley J. Davis and himself. Superintendent Harding, who has been at loggerheads with Police Magistrate Fred Seymour because of the latter's activity for ex Sheriff Gomcr C. Davis for County Commissioner Mayor Davis and Harding were for County Commissioners Morgan Thomas and Louis H.

Von Bergen pointed out that it is customary at this season of the year to cut down on the personnel of the asphalt repair gang, the unpaved street repair crew, and other squads In his division. On the other hand, those who have been "laid off," or whose working time has been cut down, charge that they are being punished because of their political activity, in the face of Mayor Davis repeated declarations that he would not "crack the whip" on any city employe In a political campaign. Brody, Wagner Complain Steve Brody, 1203 Lloyd Street, and Martin Wagner, 1428 Amherst Street, are among the employes who are openly protesting against Harding's tactics. Brody said Saturday that he had his working time cut down to twelve hours a week, after he had been employed twenty four hours weekly. Wagner charged that he had been punished because of his support of ex Sheriff Davis in the primary campaign, while Brody contended that he had been discriminated against be cause he followed the lead of Alfred J.

Fray, Superintendent of the Bureau of Police and Fire Alarms. Thomas Cavanaugh a street sweep, whose appointment is credited to Director of Public Safety James T. Hanlon, also complained that he had been notified that he had been "laid off indefinitely." If there is a showdown before Mayor Davis as between Harding on the one hand and Director Hanlon and Magistrate Seymour on the other, it is ex nected that the city executive will back up Harding. The latter is re garded as one of the Mayor's closest political advisers, and the fact that he went all the way In support of the candidates favored by Mayor Davis would undoubtedly give him the city executive's backing In the event of a row in the official family at City Hall.

This year's early agreement on quotations is interpreted throughout the industry as a forward step in the plan of close cooperation among producers and selling agencies to eliminate practices which in the past have resulted in ruinous competitive conditions. The increase in the prlec of rice coal has resulted from an extraordinary demand for this size.

The installation of automatic stokers by many domestic users Is behind the trend of the purchasers for In many instances this size has displaced buckwheat for automatic burning purposes. A falling off in the demand for egg and pea and a desire on the part of the producers to stimulate the sale of these sizes rather than break them down to smaller sizes has resulted in the price reductions from last year's crlcular.
