IMPROVEMENT IN MURDER RECORDS FOR 1920 NOTED
Return to Death Penalty Is Believed to Be Reason for Decreases in Lists of Crimes During Year

While the perpetrators of the murder of Mir. and Mrs. Jacob Erhardt, who were killed at their home here on the night of June 6, have not been discov- cred, a noticeable improvement in criminal conditions has been brought about during the last 12 months. Des- pite its one very black mark. the mur- der slate of Maricopa county for this year shows up exceptionally clean in comparison with former years. During fhe past three years 30 murders have been committed in the county, or an average of 10 each year. 4 detailed account of these follows.
 To the year 1917 goes the unenvia.ble position of heading the list with a total of 12 murders. It was in that year that Star Daly murdered James Roy Gibson and then assaulted the wife of the dead man. Daly was never brought to trial Mob law took charge of that case and Daly paid the death penalty near the scene of his crime. It was on May G. 1917 that Daly was lynched- Only five days before that Gin Yeang was shot to death A Hop Sing Tong feud was considered responsible for this tragedy. Although 10 Chinese were witnesses of the shooting they maintained a siIence which made it impossible for the state to bring any one to answer for the crime. The case remains one of the murder mysteries of Maricopa county.
 Just the day after Daly was lynched, HeZeki2h Sun, a 13-yeaT-old Indian boy, shot and killed Isabel Colt, an Indian girl, two years his junior. The shoot ing took place on the Gi1a Indian reser- vation following a quarrel over some accusations the girl is said to have made against Hezekiah. On the same day Ramon C. Romero was beaten to death with a mesquite club near Chand- Ter Jealousy is believed to have prompted the crime but evidence was lacking to bring a conviction of the guilty party.
 The 1917 orgy of murders began with the shooting of John Holt, a, 15-year- old boy, at Mesa, February 4. Ong Buen, a Chinese was found guilty of the crime and was sentenced to serve from nine to 10 years in the penitentiary. On the last day of the same month J. J. Anderson and John Groff were each lEentenced to life imprisonment for xnurdering Stephen Hughes at Tempe. Anderson confessed the crime but Croft put up a hard legal fight for his liberty.
 Mrs Ethel Butts shot and killed her pister-in-law, Mrs. Amanda Butts, on April g. The shooting took place on the Green ranch north of Phoenix. The fatal shot resulted from a quarrel. Mrs. Ethel Butts was found guilty of com Editing the crime but because of cer- Ealn exonerating circumstances, was given a suspended sentence.

nMarx,s Ankle" at the Strand

Douglas MacLean and Doris May, co-starring in Paramount-Artcraft's presentation of May Tully's celebrated farce, .Mary's Ankle" will receive final showings at the Strand today. Recorded as one of the funniest things ever written. the production re- ceives wonderful treatment at the hands of these two talented young stars. They have infected a humor into the story that only they know how to put across''-and the production IS an even better one than Twenty Three and a Half Hours Leave" or "What's Your Husband Doing ?"-the former two pictures of MacLean and May. both of which scored heavily during their engagements in Phoenixl where they were shown at the strand. The balance of the program is made 1Ip of a Mack Sennett comedy, "A Ilady's Tailor" the Prizma pictures and the Pathe News. Tomorrow starts the engagement of Maurice Tourneur's brilliant Art craft special-"Treasure Island one Of the most widely known works of Robert Louis Stevenson.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Enemy aliens interned during the war and since released on parole will be given their unrestricted liberty July 15, ex- cept in cases of those under suspicion. An order for their release was signed two or three days ago by Acting At torney General Frierson.
 Most of the aliens interned during the war on their release were com pelled to give bond and subject them selves to the restriction of a parole, said MT. F'rierson tonight, and inas- much as a sufficient length of time has now elapsed, all except those still considered a menace to public safety are to be given their full release. De- termination as to those to be held un- der parole will be left to the United States attorneys in the districts in which the aliens live, Mir. F'rierson said:
 Department of justice officials were unable to give an estimate tonight of the number affected by the order.
