Love.

United Press Leased Wire Service. ]
SALEM, Ohio, Sept. S.-Aftei ,hoot-
ing to death Ida May Lee, 10, his
sweetheart, Oscar Gray, 18. shot and
killed himself Both were high
school students. Disappointment over
his inability to marry the girl be-
cause of his youth is believed to have
been the reason why Gray shot the
girl. The shooting occurred Saturday
but the bodies of the two were not dis.
covered until today
Gray and the girl started out from
the latters home Saturday morning,
ostensibly to gather mushrooms. When
they failed to return by night the
parents of the pair believed they had
eloped. But when the boys father
Jesse Gray, discovered that his reyol
yer was missing, he instituted a
search. After searching all day yester
day the body of the girl was found to-
day in clump of bushes on the farm,
of the boys grandmother, Mrs. -
seph Ware. There were two bullet
holes in her head. A few feet away
lay Gray's body, bullet in his head
and revolver at his side.
Mrs. Ware said her grandson ap'
peared at her home Saturday morning
alone: He seemed very much agitated
and sat down to write note. Wen
she questioned him. he fled from the
house.

the winter session.
Conservationists will demand that
congress exercise the right they be-
iieVe 1t has under a recent supreme
court decision to regulate water pow
er developed, not only In interstate
navigable rivers, but in all tributary
Interstate streams, even creeks.
In Illinois, Wisconsin and Mich
ligan large aggregations of capitalists
have been acquiring valuable water
power sites, In Illinois the electric
light and power companies have reen
organizing centralized control OF
Dam sites on the Illinois, Rock, Des
PLANES, Fox and other rivers. I'LL
nois exacts no compensation for the
rights SO acquired.
If congress should decide to exer.
else the authority established by the
supreme court decision it may reach
into all these streams, lease the water
powers and regulate the business OF
the concessionaries, even superseding
to some extent such control as is
proposed by the new Illinois public
service corporation law.
The supreme court decision, which
has armed the conservationists with
a new weapon, was giyen in +he
Chandler-Dunbar case last spring. 1t
held that the government was supreme
and exclusive control of all water
power in navigable streams and their
tributaries throughout the nation. The
movement to induce congress to ex-
ercise this power already is becoming
perceptible.
