Boston furrier appears before Senate Naval Affairs Committee. Washington, D.C., May 17. Philip Krupp, a Boston furrier, today sought the Senate Naval Affairs Committee support for his drive to reinstate his 22 yr. old brother in the Naval Academy and remove from his name the "stigma of falsehood." He petitioned the committee to approve a bill directing the reinstatement of his brother, Fredrick Krupp, who, he contended, was "forced to resign" from the academy in January because of a thoughtless statement with attempt to decieve. Philip said his brother had been refused a position with the Martin Aircraft Co. and denied admission to the Massachusetts. Institute of Technology because of an untrue statement attached to all of Fred's records from the academy that he was permitted to resign for the good of the navy, he is shown left; pleading the case before the acting chairman of the committee Sen. Guy Gillette. D. of IA.

Legislation for sugar industry to be put up to President Roosevelt. Washington D.C., July 28. At a meeting today of 23 senators who are united in a drive to enact legislation for the sugar industry at this session of Congress, it was decided to send a committee to the White House to put the question up to President Roosevelt and determine the administration views.

O'Mahoney, a member of the sugar bloc, are shown being questioned by newsmen following the meeting, 7/28/37

Agriculture. Women on farms. There's a feminine hand at the controls of many of America's activities these days. Like many other farm wives whose husbands are engaged in war work, Mrs. William Wood manages a 120 acre farm in Colona, Michigan, with little male assistance. With a crop of corn, tomatoes and rasberries to harvest, she still finds time to care for her own Victory garden and to attend a first-aid class. And for the scrap drive Mrs. Wood salvaged 1,600 pounds of outworn metal and rubber articles from the farm, and contributed them to her local collection agency
