Fire, said to be caused by a short circuit in an automobile, destroyed two large barns, three automobiles and farm crops at Freeburg Tuesday night, with an estimated loss of 57000. The buildings were owned by Elmer Troup and Elwood Steimling.

The fire was discovered in the Troup barn, where Troup's car was housed for the night. The engine was still warm and a short circuit is believed to have started the NEW SERIES OF PROTESTS WILL BE GIVEN JAPS Tutrrtwlional Keif Service WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. The United States, France, Great Britain and perhaps one or two other nations are now understood to be considering a plan for an entirely new series of protests to Japan with regard to Manchuria. I This plan is completely apart from the "Chamberlain incident" arising out of the assault upon an American consul in Mukden by The Chamber- lain incident is still an oDen mat- ter with Secretary of State Stim- son.

A thnnch hp has rprpivpri and accepted, as such, an apology from the Japanese ambassador. The plan under consideration by the several governments has for its object the safeguarding of economic rights hitherto enjoyed in Manchuria by the United States and these other nations, guaranteed by various treaties. Under this plan, practical economics will! replace principles and ideals as the basis for the new representations. lhe United fctates will seek to maintain its "open door" policy in Manchuria.

Schnader tomorrow will give Sec retary of the Commonwealth Rich-1 ard J. Beamish an opinion regarding his rights to advertise for bids for the 800 needed voting machines for Philadelphia.

The Secretary of the Commonwealth yesterday discussed the situation with the county commis sioners of Philadelphia who con-1 tend that the city controller and i not the secretary should purchase the machines when the city has the funds. Beamish contends that under the voting machine act he is empowered to make the purchases when the commissioners fail to do so, and recently he fixed January 15 as the time when he would open bids. Beamish and Schnader today discussed the case and the Attorney General said that he wanted to be absolutely right before writing his decision. In the meantime he will study all the acts affecting Philadelphia's finances and the voting machine act and its amendments. The claim of the city controller that he has a right to make the purchases will be gone into in the opinion, Beamish said.

The Secretary of the Commonwealth said it was intimated at his conference with the commissioners that immediate steps will be taken to restrain his receiving bids and awarding a contract for the voting machines. This act, he said today, would mean an injunction and it would have to be brought in the Dauphin County court. WILL FIND OUT WHO'S TO BLAME From rase One nounced by the department that the error was an "omission by the printer" and a "printer's error." This declaration was flatly denied by the Department of Property and Supplies. John R. Hood, director of publications of that department, made an investigation and found the printer had made no error, that the copy of the Revenue Department was followed and that the proof of the electrotype had been approved by Revenue Department officials whose names or initials are on the proof.

This proof now rests in the safe of the Department of Property and Supplies. Doctor King today said that no action of a disciplinatory nature had been taken because he does not know who is to blame. "There is to be a conference late today," he said, "and we will then decide what is to be done." New Ones to Cost $50,000 Whether the department will issue new blank forms at an estimated cost of upwards of $50,000 is not known. Car owners who send in, the improper amount of the fee will receive their checks back, just as is done in the case of an improperly drawn check submitted for car registrations. The error should not delay the issuance of drivers' licenses to a point where there would be serious trouble, it was said today, because the 1932 drivers' cards are not necessary until March 1.

Persons who do not hear of the error and who send in a dollar during the eleventh-hour rush may have trouble if motor patrolmen stop them, but it is doubted if arrests would be made under the circumstances. NATIONALISTS' CHIEF RESIGNS Internationa A'cirs Service SHANGHAI, Jan. 7. Wang Ching-Wei, head of the reorganiza-tionists of the Kuomintang (Nationalist) party and leader of the movement which recently overthrew the late government, resigned from the Central Political Council today because of illness. Government affairs were virtually at a standstill as principal Kuomintang leaders rested in various cities.

Wang Ching-Wei was here in Shanghai, while the other members of the standing committee of the Central Political Council, Chiang Kai-Shek, late President, and Hu Han-Min were in Fengua and Hong Kong, respectively. NEW TREASURY ISSUE WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon last night announced an issue of $50,000,000 of Treasury bills, to be sold on a discount basis. Tenders will be received at the Federal Reserve banks, or branches, up to 2 p.

No follow the procession to the grave today. As he lived, so was the illustrious benefactor of mankind to go to his final rest.

Without pomp, without pretension. "A small and inconspicuous funeral," was- Rosenwald's final uttered wish when, at last, he realized that death was beckoning him. And to guard against the slightest violation of that deathbed desire, his stricken family shielded every detail of burial arrangements, save the single announcement that the funeral would be held sometime today Rosenwald, whose benefactions to humanity in money alone ex-1 ceded $55,000,000, died yesterday afternoon in his sleep at his sub urban Kavmia home. Since last April he had fought the ravages of hardening of the arteries, complicated by heart and kidney ailments. He was 69 years old.

Death of the noted philanthropist shocked Chicago, the city he had chosen wherein to carve out his career and whose wealthiest resident he became through his success as a merchant. Tributes to his life and achievements poured in from all direction today. They issued from all parts of the nation and from all walks of life. Among them was an ex- prcssion of regret from President Mrs. Rosenwald and the chil-dien were at the bedside when death came.

The children are Iessing and William Rosenwald, of Philadelphia; Mrs. Edith Stern, of New Orleans; Mrs. Alfred K. Stern, of Ravinia, and Mrs. Adele Levy, of New York.

Besides his widow and children, Rosenwald is faurvived by two sisters, Mrs. Max Adler and Mrs. S. L. Eisendrath, of Chicago, and one brother, Louis Rosenwald.

Pension Increases for Veterans' Beneficiaries Syirn'n! tn The livening Jtritt WASHINGTON. Jan. 7. Five beneficiaries of veterans of the Civil War who reside in Snyder. Perry and Northumberland Counties, are included among nearly 300 prospective beneficiaries under the first omnibus pension bill to go to the Seventy-second Congress, recommending original or increased pensions.

Mrs. Katharine K. Burns, of Sel-insgrove, is recommended for an increase in pension from $40 to $50 a month. She is the widow of Samuel P. Burns who served with the Pennsylvania Infantry.

The committee recommended an increase from $40 to $50 in the sion paid Mrs. Sarah Alice Hane, of Shamokm Dam, the widow of George H. Hane, who served with the Pennsylvania Infantry. Miss Mary Josephine Blain, of Millcrstown, the daughter of the late William A. Blain, was recommended for an original pension of $20 a month.

She has not been on the Federal pension list heretofore, because of the fact that she attained the age of 16 prior to her father's death. Her father was receiving a pension of $10 a month at the time of his death on February 5, 1903. An increase from $40 to $50 a month was recommended for Mrs. Christiana Rodarmel, of McEwens-ville, Pa. She is the widow of George T.

Rodarmel, who served with the Pennsylvania Infantry. Mrs. Angeline Klinger, of Mt. Carmel, was recommended for a similar increase. Her deceased husband, Reuben Klinger, served with the Pennsylvania Infantry.

Hotel Association in Luncheon and Meeting M. S. Butterworth presided at the monthly meeting of the Harrisburg Hotel Association at the Harris- burger Hotel at noon today. Lunch' eon was served at 1.30 o'clock, when the members of the association were the guests of John M. Crandall, manager of the hotel.

Routine business was to be dis cussed following the meeting. I GETTYSBURG, Jan. 7. After being a fugitive from justice since Sunday night Leo Klingan, of Lit-tlestown, surrendered to the State police last night and in default of $1000 bail has been made a prisoner in the Adams County jail here. Klingan was arrested Saturday evening in Littlestown, where he was charged with being drunk and disorderly.

As Officer Keefer was taking him to the lockup in that town he assaulted the officer who deputized several persons in the crowd which gathered to help him land the prisoner. About 3 o'clock Sunday morning several friends sawed the locks on the outside of the lockup and assisted him to escape. These friends are charged with having taken the boy to Baltimore, where he stayed until last night when he returned to the home of his brother at Westminster, from which place he went to Littlestown and surrendered. John Hirt and Edward Fuhrman, both of near Littlestown, are the friends who are charged with helping Klingan escape and they have also been arrested and are being held for hearing. VALLEY'S CASE MAY BE DELAYED From Page One with the company's own revised appraisal filed with the Commissi one late yesterday, but his figures" were far in excess of those given by Rolla C.

Sparrow, called as the real estate expert for the complainants. Sparrow said rights- of-way not owned in fee simple by the company are not worth more than $2306, whereas the company had appraised them at $21,375. Land on which the company holds full title was estimated by Sparrow at $9830, or far below the company's figure. When Sparrow finished he was not cross-examined at length. Counsel for the Valley wanted to know why Sparrow drew conclusions from data which other persons had obtained from the trolley records instead of going tothe Valley Railways himself and examining the records.

He replied in substance that he didn't feel safe to go to the company's offices and seek information because he thought he would not be given what he wanted. Furnished All Data The lawyer dismissed him with the assertion that the trolley company had furnished all the data the complainants had requested. When the hearing was resumed this morning, counsel for the complainants directed inquiries into the trolley company's revised valuations, filed late yesterday in which more than half a million dollars was deducted from the company's original appraisal. The complainants pointed out that while part of reduction in this new appraisal' was brought about by-the fact that certain sections of trolley lines were abandoned after the fare rise went into effect more than a year and a half ago, it was their conclusion that the original appraisal, with the higher values, would not have been disturbed if the pending complaint had not been pressed vigorously. The property appraisal is a primary factor in determining the reasonableness of rates; whether the earnings are fair or excessive and counsel for the complainants emphasized that the fare rate, whatever the amount, would have been based on an inaccurate appraisal in the absence of the pending protest.

After trolley executives had insisted yesterday that there is no direct or financial connection between the Valley Railways and the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company, an auditor for the company admitted under examination by James G. Hatz, counsel for the complainants that books of the Valley are being kept in the light company offices. For this service, he said the Valley paid the light company $400 to $600 per month prior to January 1, 1931 and since then $150 a month. The company's revised appraisal placed the Valley property value at $1,285,900 compared with its original estimate of $1,793,130. The first appraisal had included a figure of $14,000 representing the trolley company's equity in the Overview bridge.

That was included in error and was dropped from the supplemental' appraisal filed yesterday, a valuation engineer testified. Tells Whu Autamnhilp i tus ny siuiumuuuts RICHIE TELLS UNION MEN OF LABOR PROBLEMS The Central Labor Union, of Harrisburg, held its first meeting of the New Year at Union Labor Hall last evening. Regular business was curtailed to attend a mass meeting and smoker the officers had arranged at which the guest speaker, Joseph A. Richie, general organizer for the American Federation of Labor in Pennsylvania, spoke on "The American Labor Movement," discussing its make-up and construction, unemployment, organisation and in particular the relief that the American Federation of Labor and its affiliated organizations have given in the present economic strife. Richie said $11,000,000,000 had been lost to the wage earners of America through the 7,500,000 unemployed.

He further stated members of organized labor had contributed $52,000,000 to the unemployed in the last eighteen months. He said a survey shows there are 5,500,000 men on part-time employment. "The American Federation of Labor," he said, "has offered the only constructive program in the presentation of the thirty-five-hour week which is the only possible solution to the return of the 7,500,000 unemployed. Furthermore whether it be over-production or under-con-sumption, the fact remains that modern mechanical machinery has displaced the majority of those unemployed today. These machines or robots are responsible for more production in one hour than formerly done by the human mechanic in a week." He urged activity on the part of all local unions and particularly the Central Labor Union of Harrisburg in all matters whether it pertained to labor problems or the welfare of the community in general.

President John A. Phillips, of the Pennsylvania Federation of Labor, addressed the gathering on the activities of the State Federation of Labor and what it has in mind for the near future. He recited the recent legislative meetings of the State Legislature. President Phillips stated that the State Federation of Labor was proposing another session of the Legislature as he thought that by March, "conditions would be so bad that some relief will absolutely be necessary." Delegates and representatives of twenty labor organizations were present from Harrisburg and the opinion voiced was that 1932 would be a banner year for the Organized Labor movement of Harrisburg. Central Labor Union Urges New Courthouse And Jail Be Planned Resolutions asking the county commissioners to prepare for early erection of a new courthouse and jail were passed by the Central Labor Union at a meeting last night.

A committee was named to confer with the commissioners on the project. Fifty men represented twenty unions at the meeting. Addresses were made by Joseph Ritchie, Philadelphia, organizer for the A. F. of John A.

Phillips, president of the State Federation of Labor, and L. B. Wanbaugh, presi dent of the Harrisburg Typographical Union. L. F.

Clark is the president, and Charles Oyler secretary of the Central body. Officers for the succeeding year will be nominated at the February meeting. SPECIAL RATES TO FARM SHOW Special and very low daily railroad excursion rates have been provided for the first time since the State Farm Show has been an annual winter feature here. The show and the thirty or more allied agricultural and horticultural organizations that meet here during the exposition, which will be held during the week of January 18, will bring many thousands of persons to Harrisburg. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company, John H.

Light, director of the show, said today, has made the low rates available from points as far west as Altoona, as far north as Williamsport, as far east as Down-ington, as far south as York and throughout the Cumberland Valley. The Reading Company has announced excursion rates from Nor-ristown, Allentown, Reading, Potts-ville and intervening points. The excursion rates for the round trip are less than one-half of the regular one-way fare. The show commission is calling the attention of-prospective show visitors to the fact that everything will be in place and the exhibition will open at 8 o'clock Monday morning, January 18, and will not close untiI 10 Friday n'Cht. January 22.

jMost of the meetings estimated at $9000, and personal property, which has not as yet been appraised. Under the will a property on the eastern side of the State road, near Spice street, Millersburg, is given to his son, Robert Novinger, II, with a life interest provided, and which is to later go to his son's two children, Sarah and Robert III. His daughter, Mrs. Florence G. Mitchell, received the property on the western side of the State road, Millersburg, with a life interest clause, and her son, John N.

Novinger, later receives it. A daughter, Mrs. S. Gladys Jury and a son, John A. Novinger, each receive $3000 and three grandchildren, John N.

Mitchel, Sarah E. Novinger and Robert Novinger, III, each receive $25. The remainder of the estate is to be divided among his four children. VICTIM'S FATHER VIEWED WRECK From Pare One her companion could not have experienced the crash and lived. He and his wife would not talk to newspaper reporters.

They were awaiting the arrival of Mrs. Stewart's husband and her brother, Gabriel Woerner, from St. Louis. Mr. Woerner, who is G5 years old, had been searching all morning for the plane that disappeared on Tuesday.

He was not in the plane that made the discovery of the wreckage and was unaware that it had been sighted until he returned to the Harrisburg airport. He was flying with Gentry Shelton, St. Louis pilot, who, in another plane accompanied the party when they flew east from that city. A third man was with them this morning. 1 he three in the bheltnn air- plane took off aeain and flew to the scene, of the wreckage.

Ac cording to the third man in the plane, a pilot who did not reveal his name, the plane swooped to within 200 feet of the twisted airship. The third passenger in the plane said that they could see two men standing by the wreckage. He said that from the air it appeared that the wrecked plane had landed flat in a grove of trees. The plane, he said, did not seem to be broken up badly. He said that he could not distinguish the bodies in the plane.

Woerner and Pilot Shelton had made two flights during the morn- insr and when they landed at the Harrisburg Airport the second time they received word that the wreck age had been sighted. The father's first word was "Any news?" as he alighted from the plane. "There is a report that the plane has been sighted," he was told. Woerner did not reply but walked away. As soon as Shelton's plane, was refueled they took off again to view the wreckage.

Cut Way Through Thick Brush to Reach Wreck Difficulty encountered in reach- -eked plane and bodies I of Mrs. Ruth Stewart and Mrs. Debbie Stanford in the wilderness of Sherman Mountain this morn- ing was related by J. Paul Lukens, i. first discovered the wreckage from the air.

Lukens, who returned to the Harrisburg Airport this afternoon, said that it was necessary to cut through tangled trees with axes to reach the "It was extremely difficult to reach the wreckage," Lukens said. "We had taken axes along, thinking: they might be necessary, and it is good we did so, as otherwise we could not have fought our way through the underbrush and trees. "The doomed plane apparently was in a vertical dive when it crashed, as trees surrounding the spot gave no indications they had been struck. No branches had been sheared off. "Apparently striking nose first, the plane crumpled and the engine was hurled back on Mrs.

Stewart." "Wish Us Luck," Dead Aviatrix Wrote Friend By United Preti TORONTO, Jan. 7. The possibility that Mrs. Debbie Stanford feared trouble on her flight with Mrs. Ruth Stewart, was seen today in a letter mailed to Kim Beattie, Toronto Telegram aviation editor, just before starting on her disastrous trip.

"Keep your fingeis crossed for us," Mrs. Stanford wrote Beattie, a close friend. "Wish us luck," the letter concluded.

DALE JACKSON MIAMI, Jan. 7. A hundred fliers "went on with the show" today, but Dale Jackson, noted stunter and co-holder of the endurance record, was not in the cast. Jackson crashed to his death here late yesterday in a "warm-up" flight preliminary to opening of the All-American air races today, His plane, an experimental Curtiss amphibian, broke apart as Jackson tried his favorite stunt, an inverted spin. Both wings collapsed, the tail gear buckled and the wreckage fell like a plumb from an altitude of 3000 feet.

Jackson's mutilated body was found in the wreckage, one finger curled through the ring of his parachute rip cord. Observers of the noted flier's last flight said Jackson had put the plane through several loops, snap rolls, slow rolls and an Im-melman turn before he tried his last stunt. He had been warned against stunting in the Begins Stunting Jackson had taken oil from the municipal airport only a few minutes before the crash. He climbed to between 2500 and '3000 feet and began stunting over the ail-American airport, five miles from the municipal field, when his plane broke apart. The wreckage fell on the landing field.

Walter Beech, president of the Curtiss-Wright companies, was quoted by one of his officials as warning Jackson not to stunt in the new experimental plane when the St. Louis pilot asked to try it. This official said Beech declared the craft would not stand the strain of Jackson's stunts. Beech had flown the plane here from St. Louis with Charles S.

(Casey) Jones, war ace and barnstorming pilot. Several other fliers had tried it without stunting and had approved it. Mrs. Jackson had accompanied her husband here for the races, but was not at the airport when the accident occurred. Skillful Stunt Flier as he was known to the air clan, was only 29 years lie was recognized as One of the most skillful stunt fliers in the -d Vre- a il it gor in a stunt team for years.

Lund was killed recently ut in idiiiuun truuui ante jiiKHi with Forest O'Brine in the St. Louis Robin and in the Greater St. Louis. They brought their plane down on Lambert-St. Louis flying field August 17, 1930, after 647 hours, twenty-eight minutes, thirty seconds in the air.

Jackson and O'Brine flew, as they said they would, "until the motor drops out." When they soared gracefully down in a perfect three-point landing, the crankcase was broken and two cylinders were missing and spraying oil over the ship. They had remained aloft in sustained flight longer than any man before them and had rewon the record they set in 1929 at 420 hours, twenty-one minutes, thirty seconds. The Hunter brothers, of Sparta, 111., broke the first Jack-son-O'Brine mark with a 554-hour endurance flight. Elliott Roosevelt, Son Governor, Will Marry PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 7.

A company official said that if the ticket books are popular and increase trolley business they will be kept in use permanently. Otherwise, the cut-price tickets will be withdrawn on and after May 1. Officials said they limited eleven tickets to a book so car riders would not have to make a heavy investment to enjoy the reduced fare.

Moreover, larger books might be considered too bulky. The register machines on trolley cars are all equipped to mark up cash and ticket fares. If the tickets come into general use carmen think it will tend to avoid delays occasioned now by making change on the car platform Before vthe I Bobbin's Body Found In Burned Plane LIEUT. E. H.
