IN MUD TRAP TOLD
BY RESCUED MAN
Hunters Find Him With Only
Head and Shoulders
Above Bog Was Taking
Short Cut Through Bog
CHICAGO, Nov. 25. (UP) A 47
year;old WPA worker told from his
hospital bed last night of being
trapped for 10 harrowing hours with
only his head and shoulders pro
truding from treacherous swamp
land mud, which gradually was suck
ing him down.
Three young hunters walking along
the banks of the old Illinois-Michigan
canal heard the feeble cries of
Mike Dlgllo and traced them to a
bog at the edge of the canal.
Edttard Novak, 10, and Veto Rad
ii Is, IB, immediately began frantic
efforts to release the trapped man,
while Russell Novak, 16, ran to
summon help.
Deputy Sheriffs Harold Pandrey
and Tony Klrlnclch helped them
pull Dlgllo from the freezing mud
to dry land. An ambulance was sum
moned, a fire built and the mud
stiffened garments stripped from
him.
At the hospital where he received
treatment for exposure, Dlgllo said
he was taking a short cut on his
way home from work Wednesday.
"I cut through the swamp," he
said, "and I was almost to hard
ground when my feet began to break
through the mud.
"It was up to my ankles first.
and then In a couple of steps X was
up to my knees. X kept struggling.
but the harder I tried to get out,
the deeper I sank."
When help reached him the mud
almost had reached his chin.
Physicians who examined him, said
he would be able to leave the hos
pital In a few days. A nurse gave
him a belated Thanksgiving day
turkey dinner.

nin Not Entitled to Share

BOSTON, Nov. 25. (AP) In a learal
battle over the commission on an
$850,000 insurance policy In which
James Roosevelt shared, a court

Insurance broker was "not entitled to

James Roosevelt' recently replied In

counts because of his prominence as
a member of the nation's first family
ine auditor found "one of the
principal reasons" why the bank did

offered by Cronln was the "close, per
sonal friendship" of a vice president
of the bank "for James Roosevelt."
Putnam emphasized the bank's de
cision to "see to It" Roosevelt shared
in tne commission was made "with
no hope or expectation of favors to
the defendant (Roosevelt's lather
naving in 1833 become president of
the United states) and with no

OREGON'S RELIEF
37.5 Per" Cent Increase
Above Same Month Last
Year Total Outlay by
State Placed at $648,357
PORTLAND, Nov. 25. (AP) Ore
gon's October relief costs, consider
ably higher than September, ranged
37.5 percent more than the corres
ponding month of 1037, the relief
committee revealed at Its session here
today.
Approximately 22.783 persons re
ceived assistance last month against
20.108 In September, a rise of 14.6
percent. The cost for the same per
iod Jumped from $170,999 to $184,264
or 7.8 percent.
Elmer Goudy, administrator, said
the cost would continue to mount,
particularly because the WPA rolls
were limited In many counties.
The state extended aid to 30.817
cases of all types. Old-age assistance
took a 60.4 percent slice, direct re
lief 33.4 percent, dependent children
4.9 percent and 1.4 percent for the
blind. The total cost was $648,357.
Jack Lulhn, chairman, asserted the
state was confronted with a serious
problem If there were further cur
tailments In the WPA rolls, Dr. Ro
bert L. Benson, Portland, advised the
committee there was a possibility the
government might assign medical
care oases to welfare and public
health agencies, thus relieving a tax
on relief funds.
