In 1932 she inherited a . large estate from Paul Bern, her < second husband who shot himself ; three months after they were mar- j ried. 1 In addition, Mendel Silberberg, Miss Harlows attorney. was quoted as saying that she had taken out a "tremendous policy with Lloyds of London two months ago.

Out On Strike Lansing, Mich., June 8. —<U.R) — Building trades craftsmen of the American Federation of Labor were called out on strike today as the Michigan capital was resuming normalcy after yesterday's “labor holiday” sponsored by the United Automobile Workers of America. Construction firms announced that “practically all building oper-1 ations are suspended." On strike were an estimated 2,000 carpenters, bricklayers, electricians and masons. Labor officials, confirming the strike call, refused to comment upon the reasons for it. The strike was ordered as between 15,000 and 25,000 workers returned to stores, I factories and shops which they ! hau ifilTt at the behest of the CIO auto union in protest against the arrest of eight union pickets. Gov. Frank Murphy, who hast-, ened to the capitol from Detroit yesterday when the holiday was called, appeared undisturbed by the new outbreak. "They're quite responsible, these building tradesmen,” he said. "I
THIS WEEK—ISO YEARS AGO I , The Story of the < Constitutional Convention Sentinel Featurci i BY RAYMOND PITCAIRN
THE NEW JERSEY PLAN During the period from June 14 I to June 19 of the historic year 1787, members of the Constitutional Convention took part in a discussion which had a profound influence on the form and the future of our government. Briefly, they debated whether the new Constitution should assume, in I general, the form we know today, or should cling closely to the earlier pattern of the Articles of Confederation, which had proved so unsatis- I factory. Into that discussion—staged just a I century and a half ago this week in ■ the red-brick structure of Indepen- ■ dence Hall—entered many famous 1 men. Among them were the calm and deliberate James Madison, of Virginia, who would later become our fourth President; the flashing Alex- i ander Hamilton, of New York, who became our first Secretary of the < Treasury, and the brilliant lawyer. James Wilson, of Pennsylvania, who was to serve as one of the original . members of the United States Supreme Court. Like its predecessors, the debate was marked by an extraordinary knowledge of history and of govi ernment on the part of delegates. It has been computed that in the discussions which occupied the early weeks of the Convention, references were made to the governments of twenty-two nations, both ancient ' and modern, evidencing a thorough ’ understanding of the problems and I institutions of Greece, Rome. France. England. Switzerland. Holland and the then German states. ’ The debate arose over the intro--1 duction on June 15 of the “New ’ Jersey Plan." by William Paterson. ! delegate from and later Governor of ' that state, as a substitute for the earlier-discussed Virginia Plan. In . , contrast to the Virginia Plan, Pater- | i son's proposals sustained the sover- ‘ eignty of the separate states to a degree which many delegates feared • would weaken rather than strengthen t the federal union What many historians regard as t one of the clearest and most succinct

don't think much will come of it." i As the A. F. of L. unions order- I ed their workmen to quit con- i st ruction jobs, representatives of I the United Automobile Workers i and the Capitol City Wrecking company began negotiations for i settlement of the company's strike. : A truce reached last night brought a halt to the holiday and both capital and labor agreed to attempt settlement today of the 1 three weeks old strike. The “holl- ' day” demonstration grow out of the arrest of eight pickets at the wrecking company. REPUBLIC STTZEL ' 11.--(CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONB) the C. I. O. to become this county’s law enforcement agency." One man, identified l>y police as a picket, was arrested today, charged with creating a disturbance at Republic's Brier Hill mill near Youngstown. Leaders of the C. I. O. steel union, whose strike has made 70,000 workers idle in seven states, pressed on their part a demand that Governor Martin L. Davey of Ohio take machine guns away from the steel companies in this state. The C. I. O. declared ths companies had not obtained necessary permits for the weapons. Mayor Daniel Knaggs of Monroe
statements of the Convention was | then made by James Wilson, con- : trasting the two plans. It showed, i in part, that: The Virginia Plan provided for two branches of the legislature; th* [ New Jersey Plan for only one. Representation of the people at ; large was the basis of the Virginia Plan; the state legislatures were the I "pillars" of the New Jersey Plan.

Representation on the basis of population prevailed in the Virginia Plan; equal suffrage by each state in the New Jersey suggestions. A single Executive was proposed in the Virginia Plan; a
plurality of Executives in the other. *. Under the Virginia Plan the majority of the people of the United States would prevail; under the New Jersey Plan, a minority. The Virginia Plan provided for ratification of the Constitution by the people; the New Jersey Plan for ratification by legislative authorities. There were other differences affecting the nature and extent of legislative authority, the federal courts, ‘ etc., but these summarize what most delegates considered the more significant ones. Still another set of proposals was offered in an address by Alexander Hamilton. His suggestions included election of both the Chief Executive and members of the Senate "to serve during good behaviour," with powers far beyond those contemplated in either the Virginia or the New Jersey Plan. Probably because of their resemblance to monarchial forms of government, the Hamilton suggestions were neither referred to by any committee nor considered by the Convention. Finally the Virginia Plan, the form closest of the three to our present Constitution, was approved by the Committee of the whole, and favorably reported to the Convention.

promised "adequate protection" for Republic Steel Corp., in its plant to reopen its subsidiary Newton Steel Co., plant at 4 p. m. tomorrow. Monroe lies between Toledo and Detroit. C. I. O. forces are strong in both cities. A federal court hearing in Cleveland on the petition of the Baltimore & Ohio. Pennsylvania and Erie railroads for a permanent injunction against interference with train service into Republic mills at Warren and Niles. 0., was postponed until Friday. Adjutant General Emil F. Mark meantime instructed Maj. Gen. Gilson D. Light of the Ohio National guard, stationed in Youngstown, to confer "with the sheriff and the railroads and to work out some means of protecting railroad property." A Cleveland police court hearing set for today on charges that Republic had used an airfield here as a base for food planes without first obtaining a city license was postponed until June 17. The city counci Hast night went on record as believing the permit subsequently issued should be revoked. Mayor Harold H. Burton will hold a public hearing tomorrow. Anton Vehovec. the councilman in whose district the base Is located, declared “this is not an airfield but a fortified battlefield They’ve put barbed wire all over the place and autos are running around without license plates.” Concerning further efforts l>y Davey to bring both sides into conference, John Owen, O. 1.
