MOVEMENT ON FOOT TO STOP 00IZ

STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE WASHINGTON, May 6. A quiet but organized movement Is on today among republican members of the house to kill the Johnson"VVoodruff resolution for a special Investigation of war contract frouds and failure of AttorneyGeneral Daugherty to institute prosecutions against the guilty., The resolution has received a favorable report from the house rules committee. It was given privileged status and can be called up for passage by the house at any time by Chairman Campbell of the rules committee. Pressure has been brought on Campbell to delay action. Republican leader Mondel and the resolution steering committee have fixed bUHiness for the house for days in advance, taking up every hour of time, without making an allowance for consideration of the Johnson-Woodruff resolution. Mondel stated today he had giver the resolution no place on his working calendar. He indicated he wouh not make immediate provision fo: It. Other republican leaders ar (hostile to the resolution. They sal' no special congressional committee to make such an investigation wa: asked by the ex-service men of the house but either one of five standing committees can make the investigation under present powers the military affairs committee, th--Judiciary committee, the rules com mittee and committees on expendi tures In the war department an ' in the department of Justice. The ex-service men insist on : special committee for the Investigation. They want some of their members appointed to this committee In fact they want to dominate the committee, but their success is doubtful. House republican leaders have told their colleagues that the administration does not want the investigation although Attorney General Daugherty and Secretary Weeks notified the ru!s committee of their indifferent attitude concerning the matter. The favorable report from the ruTes committee on the resolution was made possible, by support from the democratic members, the favorable vote being 6 to 5. Influential republicans like Fess of Ohio, Snell of New York, Rodcnburg. of Illinois, Kreider of Pennsylvania and Dale of Vermont, voted against the resolution and special Investigation. They were surprised and disconcerted when deserted by chairman Campbell, and the republican cloak room has been filled since with bitter condemnation of Campbell.

SHOCKING TRAGEDY STIRS GARY

(Continued from page one.)

Many believe so. In her pain and suffering, possible she had pleaded with him to end It all there. In any event, the fact that he brought the revolver to the hospital leads the authorities to believe that Rambo at least bad planned such an act In advance. The bodies were taken to Williams' morgue, where Saturday night, Sunday and today a throng of people have packed the undertaking parlors. Mr. Rambo was a home man In every sense of the wcrd, an extraordinary husband and father.- A hard and faithful worker, he lived for those that he loved, his wife and two children. Little were the pleasures that he sought outside of his home. Likewise, was his wife a replica of him. They lived their vow, "Love, 'honor- end -obey and protect through life, until death do

us part" most conscenciously. They were about the sam age, 44 yeara'Lold. PIOXEER RESIDENT OF GARY ' Mr. Rambo was a pioner resident of Gary. Previous to making :'. it his home, he lived at Indiana Harbor, where he was employed as " a street car conductor. In Gary, ha grew up witn the city and his at-,-, quaintance extended to every sec--; tlon of it. Through his uace'iain.sf labors he possessed his own b.ma,;. at 701 Adams st., besides acquiring a comfortable lortune. When a police sergeant on th Gary police department, he Mag ' made chief of police during the fir t part of the Hodges administration.

With .he change of the new administration. he vas release'! ' from duty on the force. He wa rttined until February. hover, TWO CHII.DHEX SlRVIVTSl Of the immediate family two chfldren. Rex, 13 years old, and Muriel Rambo, age 1, survive them. I Gary, Mr. Rambo leaves a brother, Isaac N. Rambo, 331 Harrison employed as a motorman for the Gary Street Railway Comrany. He did not learn of the tragedy j until nearly 5 o'clock, when he stopped on his run at Fifth and Broadway. He heard another street car employe mention his name ami got' off the car and walked up to .. the fellow workers. "I heard you mention my rame and wondered why," he said. Shocked by the news, the fellow worker who had been sent from th -barns to relieve Rambo from duty, he told him of the tragedy. "I cannot believe it," he told a Times re- -porter at the house last night. "You know Just about as much about It as I do. Gle'n left that note and that is all I know. I had not seen him for a week and had sent word that I wanted to talk to him." The Rambo children w-ill find a home with a sister, Mrs. Roy Lion of LaPorte, Ind. Mrs. Lion had received a telephone message from her brother the same morning, stating that Mrs. Rambo was seriously ill from the fall.
