PWA WORKERS AT MUSEUM STAGE 3-HOUR PAY STRIKE Mechanics on Eastern Pkwy. Job Thrown Down Tools Over Check Delay. More than 500 PWA workmen, engaged in the construction of the new Brooklyn Museum' entrance in Eastern: near Washington went on strike for three hours when their bi-monthly pay- today roll checks failed to arrive on schedule. Under the exhortations of foremen and a man who said he was a representative of Mayor LaGuardia, but refused to give his name, the laborers picked up their shovels and other tools and went back to work. The mechanics, who were to get half their monthly pay of $93.50, and the laborers, each of whom draw $30.25 twice a month, -quit work at 9:30 A.

when their checks were not forthcoming. They stood around in groups, talking and paying scant attention to the pleas of foremen. Disregarding promises that the checks. soon would be there, the workers announced they would wait in front of the Museum until 8:30 P. when Mayor LaGuardia, Park Commissioner and other officials are to private showing in the institution.

At noon the Mayor's representative climbed on a mound of dirt and told the waiting strikers that Alvin Brown, aid to Gen. Johnson, had been in touch with Washington officials and that the payroll checks would be on hand tomorrow morning. Foremen joined in the plea to return to work. At first the workmen replied with cries "No," "We are and "We want our pay," but under continued urging went back to their jobs. The workers were to be guests of museum officials this afternoon, when beer and sandwiches will be served them.

They will be conducted through the museum and will be the first group to review 28 Spanish paintings just hung in the museum.

repeatedly by Emperor Haile Selassie that everything possible would be done to protect American life and property in Addis Ababa. Engert said also the British Minister in Addis Ababa had offered to distribute gas masks to any Americans who might want them. He also Americans had given permission for. any who might wish to do so to set up tents in the compound of the British Legation, the largest legation grounds in Addis Ababa located on the outskirts of the city.

Hoyt, Who Brought Change Into Children's Court, Accepts Task Given to Him by President.

Bi WALTER JOHNS Perhaps you never heard Franklin Chase Hoyt before was appointed head of the new alcohol control bureaus by President Roonevelt. It you didn't, ask one of the 50,000 Manhattan youngsters who met him during his 25 years as presiding justice of the New York City Children's Court. They will tell you he was the "bad boy's friend." They will 'tell you he was the man who took the city's children out of the criminal class and the criminal courts and made for them a' special tribunal of their own. Justice Hoyt, who retired from the Children's Court bench in 1933 at 57, and who is a grandson of the distinguished jurist who was Secretary of the Treasury under Abraham Lincoln, was for. 25 years the doctor to the city's "bad boy's" ills.

His court was the hospital that brought, the erring child back to normal living. Solved Many Problems Even to most of the city's citizens, the Children's Court at the time of Justice Hoyt's regime was an unknown institution. But to the youngsters who entered it with their many problems and to hundreds of foreign parents, it was the first step: in scanning the drama of American life. If a child played hookey, it he ran away from home, if he was an orphan and. was picked; up.

in speak-easy or found wandering in the park long after midnight, if he stole an apple from a cart, if his mother had died, Justice Hoyt solved the problems through the medium of his court where he sat eager to listen and to help the unfortunates. The technique of Justice Hoyt and the court was informal. Through his long period as a blazer for handling the problems of such children, the jurist developed a skill and analytical mind that enabled him to tell whether he was listening to scared or sulky boys, truthful ones or liars, careless parents or anxious ones Through Justice Hoyt the process of dealing with delinquents was changed from "correction" to "prevention." Through Justice Hoyt the Children's courtroom: WAS changed from the typical bored pretense, stuffiness and formal magistrates' court into an informal work table where teacher could solve Johnnie's problems.

"Just what is my position to be? writes Mr. Dows. "As the law now stands, if in the purchase of potatoes for and on behalf of this county violate the provisions of this law am guilty of a crime. Yet I have the rather questionable assurance that you are not going to enforce this law.

Does that mean that am given absolution for its violation -that I. may purchase potatoes the market, under the best circumstances most advantageous to the taxpayers of this community?" CONVICTED THIEF SAYS SINGER TOOK BRIBE OF $5,000 Army leaders believe the eastern front within the next few days will be the principal object of. Italian attack and they will have to meet thrusts from north and south toward Harar and the vital Djibouti-Addis Ababa Railway. In readiness for an offensive the Italians have massed 95 tanks near Mt. Mussa Ali, at the Junction of the Eritrea French SomalilandEthiopia border, and they have fleet of planes expected to bomb Harar, Diredawa and Jigjigga, along the railway line, and perhaps Awash and Addis Ababa.

To Bear Brunt of Attack This area should bear the brunt of the initial attack and it is evident that its people from the lowest to the highest degree have deterto fight and, if they get mined, with any Italians to cut them to pieces with swords and knives. Survivors will be emasculated. Lidj Workoe Gobena, Governor of the Issa and Gougoura districts -a graduate of Muskingum. College, New Concord, Ohio- is the commander. He announced he had concentrated fresh troops at the foot of Mt.

Mussa All and was ready to resist 'the Italians when "they advance. Everywhere there are preparations for a long fight. A rude military road has been built between Awash and Diredawa on the railway in hope that communications can be maintained if the railway is bombed. I saw a motor truck hasHarar with gas masks for Champan Andrews, the British Consul, faced dangerous isolation on the Ogaden front. Great Activity Noted There is great activity all through this area, center of the OgadenDanakil front.

Trucks with troops, food, arms and ammunitions rumble toward the front. Raw soldiers, anxious to on get into the fight, drill- during their rest periods as they march up. At every settlement men gather with their arms to join the armies, their women with them carrying pots, pans and other impedimenta ready to meet the onslaught of the alien conquistadores. There are no.roads and men and women and boys march across the volcanically roughened country, ignoring the wistful, giraffes, lu-colored baboons, elusive gazelles, and grazing water bucks and hartebeeste. Between Diredawa and Harar, the United Press correspondent, flea bitten, stomach aching; quinine filled, found a Red Cross unit commanded by Dr.

Robert Hockman of Northwestern University and Dr. Malaku Bayene, Ethiopian graduate of Howard University, Washington, D. trying as best they could to treat Ethiopian soldiers who were suffering from malaria and other ills. Three hundred men are stricken daily at Harar, the physicians reported, and 500 at Jigjigga. I saw 200 ill at Awash.

It was impossible not to speculate on what would happen to the Italian encampments if the hard bitten, acclimated Ethiopians were STOCKHOLDERS LOSE Beaten in Fight to Collect From Defunct Bank of U.

Vigorito, formerly known Brooklyn's public enemy number one, now serving ten years in the Lewisburg, Federal penttentiary as the convicted head of a' stolen motor car ring, through his attorney, Francis Saitta, filed the papers in which he asks for new trial. Saitta will apply for an order granting his client an inquiry, and, on the inquiry. for an order setting aside the judgment entered against Vigorito on' June 19, 1933. Singer, at his office at 215 Montague made the following statement: "This is just an attempt on the part of a man in prison to give me unfavorable publicity out of revenge.

His charges have been checked and rechecked by the Department of Justice and it has been found there is not one iota of truth in anything this man charges against me, "When' I heard about this motion, I went to the United States Attorney's office and asked that it be checked still. a third time. I was assured that it had been thoroughly checked, that there was no truth in it and that the entire proceeding was outrageous." An indictment filed on April 25; 1933,. charged Vigorito and others of a ring that stole automobiles shipped them to various States and An abroad, National with Motor having Vehicle Act. violated They the also were charged with conspiracy to violate the act.

On May 1 of the same year Vigorito pleaded not guilty, was tried, prosecuted by Singer and found guilty on three counts but not guilty on some other counts in the indictment. He was sentenced to serve ten years. Ho appealed but unsuccessfully. Evidence Called False In explaning, in the papers, why he should be given a new trial, Vigorito says that at his trial Claude Barker gave certain mony against him, this being the principal testimony serving to connect him "the alleged crime and without which the jury would have been forced to find him not 1 guilty, The entire evidence of Barker, Vigorito insists, was false. It came as a great surprise to him and his attorney and they were meet allegedly false testimony.

The latter says he is now able to prove the testimony of Barker that he, Vigorito, was the man who, on July 1, 1932, received from Barker certain dock receipts "for stolen: automobiles crated by the Kirby Trucking of Trenton, N.

Joseph Franzo that he obtained the receipts from Barker on the dates on which Barker swore he gave them to Vigorito. women, Verderosa and Anna Calandra, whose affidavits to the effect are attached to the motion papers, say they were with Franzo when he got the reeeipts. Barker, Vigorito says, was forced to testify falsely. by threats that he would be prosecuted as a party to the crime unless he' did so and that he is now willing to tell the truth.

Since the trial, the a on vieted man declares, he has learned that the witless Goldstein, through an attorney, paid to Singer ,000 and promised to aid the prosecutor to convict Vigorito with testimony, he Singer, knew to be false.

During a recess of the trial, Vigorito says, he saw. Singer and Juror Number Two in serious conversation. He says Singer knew Goldstein to be guilty, but substituted him as a victim. He charges him with unfairly and Illegally influencing Juror Number Two and: with violating his oath of office In the preparation and conduct case. He charges him with bribing, threatening and forcing witnesses to testify falsely "and with deliberately, framing me from the Inception to the close of the case.

Goldstein was proprietor of the Penn Nash Motor Sales Co. Vigorito's police record goes back to. 1916. He was arrested a score of times on felony charges. He was convicted only once before, however, in 1926, when he received short prison sentence for stealing an automobile.

The Automobile Underwriters' Association months after Vigorito's arrest in the present case, announced that thefts of motor cars here had decreased 70 per cent. and insurance premiums were reduced 15 per cent.
