Farm Hand Admits Shooting Os Girl Girl Is Recovering From Bullet Wound Salem, Ind., June 3 — (UP) — Robert Weaver, 35, a farm hand, told police today he didn’t know why he shot a pretty 19-year-old girl a month ago while she strolled in a school yard near a lovers’ lane. State police said Weaver admitted firing the shot that seriously injured Betty Jane Stout, Salem, last May 1. He was arrested and authorities said charges of assault with intent to commit a felony would be filed. Miss Stout was shot shortly after she walked away from the car in which her escort was parked near the Quaker school yard. She said a man grabbed her and shot her when she screamed. She recovered and was schedul ed to be released from a New Albany hospital this reek. State police detectives went to the farm of Benjamin Kelly, near the school house, and arrested Weaver yesterday. Police said Weaver admitted hiding in the wooded section with a rifle but did not explain why he shot Miss Stout. Weaver, a bachelor, had a police record including convictions and prison terms for vehicle taking, police said. Trade in a Good Town — Decatur

Probe Finances 01 Laie Union Leader / Investigation Led , By Hoosier Solon Washington, June 3. —(UP)— Rep. Roy W. Wier, D., Minn., has accused Rep. Andrew Jacobs, D., Ind., of doing a “swell job of sabotage’’ on labor. Wier referred to the new investigation by a house labor subcommittee of the printing pressmen’s union (AFL) and the financial operations of its late president, George L. Berry. Jacobs, a labor lawyer and freshman member of congress, heads the subcommittee. At. the conclusion at last night's opening session of the inquiry, Wier walked by Jacobs and said: "You’re doing a swell job of sabotage.” Jacobs, his face flushed, retorted: “That’s just one man’s opinion." Wier apparently had in mind that the investigation of the pressmen’s union might react against all labor and pernap’s interfere with the efforts of Democrats to revise the Taft-Hartley law. Wier is a colleague of Jacobs on the labor committee but is not on the subcommittee. He attended the subcommittee meeting last night as a spectator. Jacobs started the investigation as though he meant to do a thorough job. He went through a good part of the history of the pressmen’s union and drew from George L. Googe of Atlanta, a vice president, the admission that the union "had no right to pay" the $26,900 in back income taxes it paid for Berry. Googe told the subcommittee, at Jacob's urging, that in addition to assuming Berry’s tax liability, it paid his legal fees in the case, i Jacobs also brought out that Berry used $165,000 in union funds to establish the Clinchfield HydroElectric Co., in eastern Tennessee, and that with union funds he started the highly profiltable international Plying Card and Label Co., at Rogersville, Tenn. I The card company issued stock valued $893,000 and since Ber-

ry’s death last December it has been turned over to his heirs and associates. Googe said the union had no financial interest in the company. But the union did have an interest in the Hydro-Electric company, which went out of business after the government set up the Tennessee Valley authority. When Jacobs had gone down through the list of Beery investments of union funds, Rep. Thomas H. Werdel, R., Cal., applied a oneword description to it all: “fantastic." Jacobs asserted that Chicagto local No. 3 of the pressmen’s union once challenged Berry’s right to invest union funds in the Hydro-Electric company. The result of this, Jacobs said, was for the International union to put the local under its stewardship and keep it there from 1925 until 1948, Googe said the card company was established to help the union in its organizational work. When an employer refused to deal with the pressman’s union, he said, the
