The Yale, Law School dean, in addition, blamed "a hard -boiled labor aimed at preventing the development of A stable and responsible union" for "the present unfortunate impasse" in the "unfortunate strike in the automotive industry" Referring to the President's proporal relative to the Supreme Court, Dean Clark said: "In long-range aspect it merely. a retirement or. a pension "When Arst it is applied it true it may change. the character of the bench sufficiently to save temporarily a fen acts which otherwise might have been lost.

House approval of the Supreme Court retirement measure followed bitter debate that split party lines and sometimes covered the whole of the proposed reorganization. Rep. Lamneck, an Ohio businessman who opposed the Administration last session on the undistributed surplus. tax. the first Democratic speech against the President's proposals on the floor.

He declared the proposals might lead to "a Hitler, a Mussolini or a Stalin government." Rep. Cox of Georgia. chairman of a Democratic group seeking to organize opposition, joined in with the assertion: "A political and terrorized court. is no tribunal of justice." Ren. Guyer (R-Kan.) contended the retirement bill constituted an tion to justices of the Supreme to quit.

Sumners denied it asserting: "We are merely giving a privilege to the Supreme Court justices already granted, to other federal justices." Rejects Amendment The House rejected an amendment by Rep. McLean (R-N. for' a specific prohibition against presidential removal of Supreme Court jugtices.

(AP). A story of brutal killing of a pretty Queens housewife who begged in vain for mercy was told today at the murder trial of Major Green, squat Negro building porter.

As the Negro policeman told it, Green was, provoked to murderous frenzy by a dispute over whether he should use vinegar in the water for washing the windows of the Case apartment.

Roberts said he was disguised as a vagrant and placed in a cell with Green last week. On the theory that one confidence begets another, he said he concocted a story of having killed his wife. Green responded by boasting that his name. was "in the newspapers all over the world," Roberts said, because he had "killed white woman." Quoting the defendant, the Negro policeman told how Green went to the Case apartment on Jan. 11 to wash the windows.

Mass. Engineers Will See Young On Flood Plans Continued From First Page setts and calls for the construction of nine impounding reservolrs, four.

of which would be in Vermont, two in New Hampshire and three in Massachusetts. Vermont is understood to object strenuously to the reservoirs on the ground that. they would destroy the scenic beauty of the Green Mountain State. These emergency reservoirs would be used only at flood periods, and Vermont's position is that for the rest of the year they would be unsightly quito bogs. Consult Advisers Meanwhile Asst.

Moreover, during a flood of Jess intensity, such as that of 1927, the crest would be lowered much possibly. than four feet at Springfield according to reliable: estimates. This lesser: flood wrought.

much damage throughout the valley, and it is significant that four feet less on the crest at Springfield would have prevented damage entirely in this city. More Than 30 Reservoirs Ultimately, according to recommendations of the Army. engineers, more than 30 impounding reservoirs may be built before protection of the valley is complete. Admittedly, the nine in the initial plan are but a start on the 3 project, and it is believed once.a start is made, the plan. eventually will be carried through to completion.

Considering these facts, local businessmen and citizens have previously gone on record as opposed to quibbling over such a sum. It would not come out of the budget for any one fiscal year, In any event, since it is not proposed to build the nine reservoirs simultaneously.
