Death mystery deepens as Greensburg case stalls
Greensburg March 30 authorities still cannot determine the cause of death of a woman found in a cabin. Coroner H Albert McMurray says Dr Buckmaster cannot yet say what caused it. A former priest Rev Charles E Haley is detained at the state barracks. Police seek more clothing and evidence, including possible signs of foul play in remote areas. District Attorney Laird has received tips including an $800 loan claim and a request for help from Senator James M Davis previously about Haley’s reestablishment with the church.

State wage status mirrors New York minimum in Ohio ruling
The Supreme Court’s five to four decision parallels New York law, holding employers must pay wages that cover living costs and keep workers healthy. Chief Justice Hughes defends protected liberty as social law that safeguards health, safety, morals, and welfare against contractual evils. Justice Sutherland dissents, suggesting a potential balance with a maximum wage, challenging the scope of minimum wage safeguards.

Senator Wheeler welcomes the court’s wage ruling shift while other allies worry the debate stirs the court. Some expect the wage reversal to sway reorganization support.

Compensation Measure Faces Conference and Labor Unity
The governor noted a conference date to resolve differences on a compensation measure. A House bill would wait in a Senate committee until settlement is reached. A new fund for workmen’s compensation claimants would be funded by a one percent levy on net premiums, paid semiannually, with payments ceasing when reserves reach five percent of a company’s compensation claim reserves. The Pennsylvania Federation of Labor opened its 36th convention with 500 delegates seeking unity in labor amid AFL split tensions. John A. Phillips stressed no rift with the committee for industrial organization as speakers, including Lewis and Murray, attend a banquet for Lt. Governor Kennedy.
