Mary Esther Williams was born Mary Esther Stanley on December 20, 1901 at Shelburn, Indiana. On July 22, 1957 the Maker came because He had need of her, and transplanted her in His garden where His fairest flowers grow; and she waits there for her loved ones. For Christ has made a starlit path between the companionship of yesterday and the reunion of tomorrow. On October 29, 1919 she was united in marriage to Homer Williams who survives. To this union were born ten children, three passed away in infancy. The seven remaining children are Mary Mildred Covert, Helen Harvey, Edna Flo Young, Linda Lou Mossisett, Dorothy Ann Merrill, David and Alice Kay at at home.

Workers Testify In Rackets Probe WASHINGTON (UPl The Senate Rackets Committee called Puerto Rican workers from New York today to back up its chairman's charge that racketeer Johnny Dio exploited them with ’sweetheart” contracts. Counsel Kobwrt F. Kennedy said the workers would testify about conditions where they worked as members of union locals controlled by Dio, a convicted labor extortionist whose real name is John Dioguardi. Kennedy said the testimony would cover locals of the AFL United Auto Workers which Dio ran while he was the union’s director in New York, and also some of the locals he took into the Teamsters Union to help nis friend Janies R. Hoffa, vice president and candidate for the presidency of the Teamsters. Hofta said in San Francisco the committee has subpenaed him to appear before it Aug. 13. The committee refused to confirm this. Chairman John L. McClellan, D-Ark., said in opening the hearings Wednesday that Dio financed his mob from union dues. McClellan said racketeers sol i out union members by signing cooperative evployers to easy “sweetheart” contracts which gave the workers little or no benefit. Kennedy told newsmen the committee has no immediate plans to question two leading figures whose names popped up in Thursday’s hearings: Joe Louis and David Dubinsky, president of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union. McClellan said Thursday Teamster Union members paid the $21.66 hotel bill of Joe Louis, a Negro, when he came to federal court here to greet Hoffa, then on trial on conspiracy-bribery charges. Hoffa was acquitted by a jury that included eight Negroes of charges he planted a spy on the committee staff to steal documents for him.

No Relief Seen In Heat Wave
Hy t nittMl Pre»i» No relief was in sight today for a four-day Southern California heat wave blamed for a rash of brush fires that burned out at least 13 homes in the Los Angeles basin. Most of the precipitation Thursday night and today again was concentrated in the nation’s mid-section. Only a few light showers were reported in the drought-stricken sections of the East. Southern California, baked tinder dry by a 100-degree heat wave, faced the threat of mors biush fires as weathermen predicted mostly clear skies over UrWest today. Three brush blazes Thursday blackened hundreds of acres of land and destroyed homes and cars as the fires swept from Pomona to the Hollywood Hills. Firemen, hampered by inadequate water pressure in hydrants. brought the flames und -r control by night. In the rain-soaked midlands, Minneapolis was doused by .82 inch of rain and Alexandria, Minn., by 1.25 inches during a 6hour period Thursday night.
