By CLARENCE M. WRIGHT
Acsociated Press Staff Writer.,
WASHINGTON. —(AP)—Amer
ica's $20,000,000 experiment with
airships is to be studied next week
by a joint congressional committee
including members of both house
and senate and their verdict likely
will decide whether the United
States bulids any more dirigibles
like the Akron.
This agreement was reached
Saturday, house Democratic lead
ers said, thus ‘ending before it got
well started an investigation pro
posed by the house naval commit
tee centered entirely upon the
Akron tragedy.
About the same 'time, President
Roosevelt let it be known that he
will attend memorial services for
the Akron dead at Arlington Nat
ional cemeétery on May 30. There
will be many other memorial ser
vices before then, such as that at
the huge Washington cathedral
which house naval committee
members will attend Sunday, but
the belief at the White House was
that as many bodies as could be
found should be recovered first.
Reach Agreement
The agreement en Capitol Hill,
said Representative Bankhead of
Alabama, one of the Democratic
leaders, is to set up a special com
mittee including five members
from the senate and a like num-
ber from the house to study not
only the Akron's fatal trip but “to
consider everything pertinent to
airships.”
Accepting this compromise were
Chairman Vinson (D. Ga.), of the
house naval committee; Senator
King (D., Utah), who had propos
ed a 'm‘pau'uto senate investigation,
and Representative McClintic (D.,

Lieut. Colonel Masury's
Body Is Found Near
Scene of Disaster
NEW YORK—(®#)—The hody of
Lieutenant Colonel Alfred ¥. Mas
ury, recovered Saturday near the
scene of the wreck of the airship
Akron, on which he was a guest,
arrived at the Brooklyn Navy yard
Saturday afternoon on board the
coast guard cutter Galatea.
It was formally identified by
John Slocum, his secretary, who
acted for his widow, Mrs. Edna L
Masury, and taken to the Naval
hospital where funeral esrvices will
be held Sunday at 2 §. m.
The body was sighted Saturday
by the oil tanker John B. Archbald
about 17 miles off Barnegat Light
and was picked up by the Galatea.
Agide from several bruises received
when the body was brought aboard
the cutter, there were no other
marks on it
Spurred on by the finding of the
body of Lieut. Colonel Masury and
several pieces of debris, the Navy
Saturday night continued its con
centrated search or wreckage.
Coast guard and naval vessels
kept on with dragging activities
over a 500-mile area, with the cen
ter about 20 miles off Barnegat
Light, near _the spot where the
Akron fell into the sea Tuesday
morning,
All of the debris recovered Sat
urday was in the area in which
Masury's body was found. It in
cluded a mattress, a flying coat,
a stool and a pair of trousers.
Searchers said the finding of al
these pieces of debris in the same
area indicated the hulk of the
great dirigible. was probably in
that vicinity.

Husband And Wife
Kill Selves But
Not From a Pact
| ATLANTA, Ga.—(AP)—Double
suicide, apparently by coincidence
rather than design, claimes the
lives of William T. Stewart and
his wife Saturday and left Coro
‘ner Paul Donehoo puzzling over
what he termed “‘one of the
strangest cases I have ever han
dled.”
During the forenoon Stewart,
unsuecessful in a long quest for
work, plunged from the ninth
floor of the Walton building and
was dashed to death on the roof
of an adjoining annex.
Police hurried to his home to
inform Mrs. Stewart and found
her unconscious from the effects of
gas and poison, although she had
received no word of her husband’s
death. The room was filled with
gas. She never revived and died
about two hours later.
The coroner’s jury returned a
verdiet of suicide in Stewart's
death.” Donehoo said no inquest
would be necessary in Mrs. Stew-
lart’s case in that she made a dy
{ing statement _to Rev. W. H.
| Faust, a neighbot!, saying she had
'taken the poison. ' She gave no
| reason. nor digd she intimate any

In many a city the beer bhoom

opment of a new 'and cheaper
weapon soy the fight against pal
lagra was reported by the South
Carolina Food Research commis
'sion Saturday. :
| The new weapon “is a concen
trate made from cottonseed meal,
}a. cheap foodstuff now used in ra
tions for farm animals, and may
take the place of yeast and other
more costly foods as ananti-pella

~ The discovery was disclosed by
Dr. Harold Levine, in a paper

oyt that pellagra occurs chiefly
among the very poor, many of|
whom are unable to purchase thet
foods known to contain the anti-|

migsion’s research on the pella
gra problem had heen directed to
ward finding new potent sources
of the anti-pellagric-vitamin which
at the same time are so inexpen-!

ATLANTA ~(4AP) — The COn«}‘s-z
stitution says it learned authori
tatively Saturday . that Governor
Talmadge is ready to call an extras
session of the legislature to legal
ize 3.2 per cent beer when a ma=
jority of members of the general
assembly reveal to him that they
will support such measure, o
The governor has not spoken for
or against a beer session, but im
a form letter to many friends has
said he did not consider an imme=
diate session necessary. &
‘ The Constitution suys that abouf
10 representatives and senators
’huve written the governor that
‘they will vote for beer and desirg
‘an .extra session. Y I
That number is not a majority
of the assembly, and the . Consti
tution says when ‘the majority
signifies its intent to vote foe
lager brew it is “expected that the
call will go forth,” b
The governor, ‘the paper . says,
has *“not been swayed by woffers
of free lodging” for members o&z
session and feels that if the sess
sion is called and legislation en
acted it will be worth paying for
and will be paid for out of tha
state treasury. e

Representative Emory Wood, res
turning to the city Saturda.y‘r_
an absence of a week, stated “that
he was in favor of a special | ses
sion of the legislature to derve
without pay to pass beer lazilllsg
tion, and that he “would be glad
to serve without pay and 'wlfig
vote for beer legislation.” ¢ =
“In view of the fact that ,W?

. “As matters stand now, Georgis
lans will get beer and at the Y
time the state will lose a great
amount of revenue if we Ao not
act and act quickly. It has /been
estimated that since the next reg
ular meeting of the assembly 'is n
1935, the state would lose over 13?
000,000 in beer taxes unless the ass |
sembly is convened soon.” ' =
“Dhat $2,000,000 refers only to
