GEM THEFT CASE
READY FOR JURY
Two Women Held in New
York in $350,000 Robbery
of D. C. Matron.
New York authorities were ready
today to go to the grand jury with the
Bugher gem theft case, Chief of De
tectives B. W. Thompson announced
here.
Two women are held in New York—
Agnes Olsen Johnson, charged with
receiving stolen property in connec
tion with the theft of a $50,000 col
lection from Mrs. Frederick H. Bugher,
1785 Massachusetts avenue, and Anna
Hansen, also known as Isabelle Hutt,
allegedly the intended recipient of a
$300,000 lot stolen from the Washing
ton society matron.
Victim Identifies Gems.
The victim of the robbery and her
eon, Frederick McLean Bugher, iden
tified the Jewelry at headquarters in
New York yesterday. The $300,000
collection was returned to Mrs. Bugher,
but the rest was held as evidence, the
Associated Press said.
Police here assumed that the Bughers
and Detective Sergt. Joseph W. Shi
mon would be witnesses at the grand
jury hearing, which was scheduled to
start at 11 a.in.
Meanwhile, Thompson and his aides,
who have worked unceasingly on the
case since it broke Friday afternoon,
have renewed their questioning of
John Morcischeck, Bugher butler, re
puted “brains” of the robbery.
Says He Found Genu.
Morcischeck sticks to the story that
he found the $300,000 jewels in a hall
way of the fashionable Bugher apart
ment and shipped them to New York,
investigators say, but he denies any
connection with the smaller lot.
It developed today, too, that after
the $300,000 robbery was reported, Mrs.
Bugher, who knew nothing of the
theft of the $50,000 in jewels until New
York police found them, had thought
that still another collection, valued
at $20,000, had been taken from her
home. These were found later, how
ever, according to Thompson.
Strike
(Continued From First Page.)
After the six cars penetrated the
line a voice from the sound truck
shouted: “Tomorrow well have a real
picket line, and nobody will ge into
the plant”
At the Fleetwood unit of Cadillac
there was no violence as about 200
employes of the Temstedt division,
part of the Fleetwood plant, went back
to work. No picket line was estab
lished there.
The General Motors strike extended
from coast to coast today for the first
time as the corporation completed
plans to return 39,900 of its more than
125,000 Idle employes to work tomor
row. • •
About the time General Motors offi
cials here announced the recalling of
workers to 10 plants in Michigan and
Indiana a disturbance in which three
persons were hurt and property was
damaged occurred last night at An
derson, Ind., where two subsidiaries
are closed.
Joseph Carney. Anderson police
chief, said a crowd of about 2,000 per
sons prevented the United Automo
bile Workers of America, which called
the strikes, from holding a meeting
In the Madison County court house.
Union Organizers Injured.
Police Chief Carney said that the
demonstrators threw eggs and there
were numerous fist fights. Three
union organizers — Perry Warrum,
Frank Schutz and Clark Cramer—
were hurt, Carney said, but did not
require hospital treatment.
From the court house part of the
crowd went to the union headquarters
and, the police chief said, some fur
nishings were ruined and office rec
ords destroyed. The police escorted
about 20 persons from the headquar
ters to jail for safe keeping, Carney
added.
Next demonstrators burned a pick
ets’ tent outside the Guide Lamp
plant, a General Motors subsidiary
where a strike Is In progress. “Sit

A second Anderson unit of the cor
poration. Delco-Remy, has been closed
as a result of the strikes. More than
8,500 employes of the two divisions are
idle there.
The strikes, which had extended
from New Jersey to Missouri and from
Georgia to the Great Lakes, spread to
the West Coast yesterday afternoon
when the union called walkouts in the
Chevrolet and Fisher plants ac Oak
land, Calif., yesterday afternoon.
The management said operations
were proceeding, although Frank Sla
by, local union president, asserted that
half of the 3,000 workers were on
strike.
All of the plants which will reopen
tomorrow are in the Chevrolet divi
sion. The company has said it hopes
to have 95,000 now idle working two
or three days a week as soon as pos
sible.
Plants to Reopen.
The 39,900 ordered back to work to
morrow are distributed as follows:
Indiana—Indianapolis, commercial

4,000; Detroit, gear and axle plant,
9,500; forge. $2,500, and spring and

Alfred P. Sloan Jr., president, de
clined last night the request of Secre
tary of Labor Perkins that executives
of General Motors Corp. meet in her
office tomorrow with leaders of the
automotive strike in his company’s
plants.
‘‘We cannot see our way clear,”
Sloan wrote Secretary Perkins, "to
accept the invitation to negotiate with
the union while its representative?
continue to hold our plants unlaw
fully.”
His reference was to the occupa
tion of two Fisher body plants at
Flint, Mich., by "sit-down" strikers.
The United Automobile Workers of
America, which called the strikes, had
accepted the summons from the Sec
retary of Labor and its ranking offi
cers went to Washington.
