Kahn Loss to Finance, Art and Sciences I f fl * >*■ As a Gopfeß/ Otto Kai th at Svmate Irn.r£?TioATtoi<r At the Opera The worlds of art, science and philanthropy join with the world of finance in mourning the passing of Otta Hermann Kahn, long one of the dominant figures on the American scene. Born in Mannheim, Germany, in 1867, the son of a banker, Kahn did not begin his American career until 1893. Since then he has been a leader in the world of finance. He was associated with the late Edward Harriman in the latter’s battle for railroad control. An ardent lover of music, Kahn was a familiar figure at the Metropolitan Opera and one of that uuuiution's most faithful patrons. One of his last public appearances was as a witness in the Senate investigation into stock and banking practices.

April 2 *U.R) Mike S May. ■riminologist. found, his dedrietive powers taxed today by the brutal slayings of four men and two women in an isolated cottage at Erland's Point near here. May. called from Seattle by perplexed local authorities, found little to point to the killer or killers in the northwest's “most ghastly crime." Robbers may lutve beaten the six occupants of the cottage to death. Possibility that a person crazed by narcotics attacked the six also was considered. Several persons were taken into custody but none wan charged with any crime. Victims of th,* slayings were identified with difficulty as Frank Flieder. 45. owner of the cottag?; Mrs. Anna Taylor Flieder. 50, his wife: Magnus Jordan, 32. former sailor: Fred Balsom, Bremerton bartender; Eugene CheneVert, 38. and his wife, Peggy. 30. The Cheneverts wre known on the vaudeville stage as Bert and Peggy Vincent. «* The trail of the killer or the killers already was several days old when a neighbor's curiosity revealed the crime. Thomas E. Sanders, attracted by the antics of several poodle dogs in a parked sedan, went to Flieder's cottage. looked in. and saw bodies strewn on the floor. Al! had been tied and gagged with tape. Each had been hlindfold<>d. It was apparent that knives and a heavy hammer had been used. May took to his laboratory a hammer and two knives. The house showed signs of a struggle, and had been ransacked. Doctors believed that the killings had occurred either Wednesday or Thursday night. Sanders made his gruesome discovery late Saturday.

Flieder cottage was the center of heavy drinking and of "wild parties." Authorities claimed, too, that one of the victims was known as a drug user and had been seen conversing with a suspected dope peddler earlier in the week.

OLDEST MEMBER OF HOUSE DIES Rep. Pou of North Carolina Died Sunday After Few Days Illness Washington. April 2 — (U.K) Death of R-p. Edward W. Pou. North Carolina Democrat, early Sunday morning brought adjournment of legislative business* in the house and senate as tribute was paid to the veteran legislator, oldest member of the house in ]>oint of service. Legislation was didetracked in order that funeral services for the dean of the house might be held. Pou. chairman of the powerful rules committee, died of a complication of diseases. He had been ill for several years but his condition did not become serious until a few days ago. He was 71 years old. Three important bills were to have been a<l.*d on by the house today, the Jones sugar production control proposal, the Johnson bill forbidding the sale in this country of securities issued by debtdefaulting nations, and the Rankin bill authorizing a nation wide survey of electric energy rates. All were set aside in order thpt the house might pay its last respects to Pou. Pou served his first term in the house in the 58th confgess. He wa s born in Tuskegee. Ala., on Sept. 1863. He was elected to the office of chairman of the Democratic executive committee of his country in 1886. From that time Until the date of his death, Pou was in the service of the nation. Tall, spare and bespectacled, lie was a silent but important factor In the proceedings of the house. His rules, committee many times decided the fate of important legislation long before it ri-aihed the fldor. It agreed to report out some of the most drastic “gag" rules ever presented to the chamber. "1 have lost a warm friend and a good colleague," said Speaker Henry T. Rainey as he arranged the joint services of the house and senate to be held at 2 p. m. 0 Texans Would Ban 3.2 Carrollton.

GENERAL RAISE IN PAY GRANTED Leading Industries Have Cut Work Hours And Raised Wages Washington. Apr. 2. —(U.R> -General Hugh 8. John Hon's challenge to Industry to aid recovery by cutting hours and raising pay was met In whole or part Balay by employers of almoat 1,000,060 men. The wages-hourK action provided potential jobs for almost 100,000 men and placed around $2.o00.oo<) additional in weekly pay Although not directly attributable to the NRA executive's appeal, tlie general movement to cut hours of work and increase pay had the same effect. Industries affected by the movement included: Steel, approximately 400,000 workers receive 10 per cent pay increase. Automobile, 100,000 workers receive 10 per cent pay increase and 36-hour week. Bituminous coal. 350,000 workers receive $5 a day and 35 hours week. General Electric C 0.., 30,000 to j 40,000 workers receive 10 per cent i increase in wages. General Mills, Pillsbury flour' mills, Russell-Miller Milling Co., National Radiator Corporation, Consolidated Paper Co., and a number of smaller corporations announce 10 per cent wage increases, some accompanied by a corresponding decrease in hours. The increased wages and reduc-1 ed hours for coal miners still Is I subject to code hearings but is generally expected to be ratified. It I was noted that in at least three of [ the responses, the wage-hour action came from sections of Industry regarded as not over friendly to the NRA and its aggressive lead er. Tlie automobile industry was the i scene of what was heralded as the NkTs greatest test to date, only just settled. The steel Industry i has been an equally sore spot with i the recovery administration. Among the steel corporations granting in- i creases was National Steel, of [ which Weirton Steel Co., is a sub- I sidiary. The Weirton case is the , most celebrated growing out of I the whole recovery program. NRA | trouble also has broken out in the I milling industry. Despite this, the effect of the . action has been directly along the , lines of Johnson's appeal at the general code conference here.

A Fashion Show Arranged For You VVE MUST be in fashion today. Fashion reaches even into our thoughts and speech, into our every activity, into almost every incidental of our present-day background. Though elusive and constantly changing, we must be familiar with this force — if we are to hold our places as active members of a modern community. To speak of young girls as flappers is to date ourselves as immediately post-war. Plush and mohairs would stamp the past on our home furnishings. And antiquated household appliances would continue to submerge us in drudgery distinctly unfashionable. There is no better parade of fashion than that which is presented to you daily in the pages of this newspaper. Through the advertisements, leading merchants and manufacturers are telling you about fashions in living. Hats and shoes now being worn, the better kind of household conveniences, the best values in foods, decorations, furnishings—each advertisement sincere and truthful news of the latest offerings of the stores.
