Army investigation cites faulty construction in collapse
Federal investigators interpret the collapse as caused by faulty construction. In Topeka Robert J. Suhay and Glen W. Applegate, New York mobsters, are charged with first degree murder in the slaying of Federal Agent W. W. Banker at a post office last April 15. Banker was fatally wounded as he and Roy Martin tried to seize a suspect. Martin fired, a gunbattle ensued, Suhay was wounded and fled with Applegate. Manila officials say they are too busy with other issues to address McNutt’s toasted priority over Quezon at official functions. In Washington Frances Perkins argues the wage hour plan should be administered by a board under the labor department. London marks Queen Mother Mary’s 70th birthday with prime ministers and dominion leaders visiting Marlborough House for best wishes.
