In these words, Harry Lawrence, at

Some other woman, disappointed IN
love- killed the Western bon vivant
Lawrence told E. f. Wilson Of Evanston
while he was in that city investigating
a new angle Of the murder mystery.
All Burch has to do is TO sit tight
and keep his mouth closed and he will
go free" Wilson says Lawrence declared
He told me it was his opinion MAZDA
lynne Obenchain and Burch did not
frame Kennedys death. but that some
other woman, disappointed in love, had
slain him. Wilson said. Lawrence wss
Of the opinion this woman happened on
the scene just after Burch and Mrs
ObeRchain, who, however. had framed
to force Kennedy to marry the latter, had
held an unsatisfactory conference with
Kennedy. He thought the woman or her
confederates then shot the man"
Lawrence left today for Los Angeles

CONGRESS MAY
LEGALIZE BEER
MAKING IN HOME
House Adopts Provision Re
quiring Prohibition Search
Warrants.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-"Home brew
ing and disulling is in fair way to be
virtually legalized, Government legal ad-
visers said today, discussing the action
Of the House last night in. restricting
tie operations of dry law agents against
home brewing.
The House adopted provision in the
anti-beer bill prohibiting enforcement
agents from entering private homes
searching for liquor without search war
rants. It is specified that even then,
search warrants shall not be issued I'M
less is shown the place to be searched
is being used to manufacture liquors for
sale.
The Senate, having adopted the Stanley
amendment, which prohibited search and
seizure without warrants, is not expected
to oppose the House home brew amend
ment.
The action Of the House came as sur
prise to prohibition officials. The meas
ure will radically curtail part of the en-
forcement program. A revision of the
rules governing enforcement officers, will
be necessary, it was said.
Legal authorities, discussing the action
of the House, interpreted it to mean that
home brewers, making beer for their
own personal needs, or TO serve to guests
In their homes. need have no fear of in
reference by any Government officers.
As the provision adopted by the House
was weighed by legal sharps, it appeared
no officer would secure a search warrant
for any plan Of seizure, unless the place
to be entered was the base of operations
of Illicit liquor makers, commercializing
and profting by selling their products
outside.

HOPES OF THE VETS

Optimistic vets who see signs Of
returning flood Of liquor in the amend
ment to the Willis Campbell beer bill
approved by the House Of Representatives
yesterday, are doomed to bitter disap-
pointment, according to Bert Morgan,
prohibition officer for Indiana
The amendment provides that Federal
agents must have warrants before en-
tering homes in search OF liquor, but
that no warrant shall be issued ''un-
less there is reason to believe such
dwelling is used as place in which
liquor is manufactured for sale or Sold
LAS a matter of fact" Mr.. Morgan
said, this is in accord with the pro-
ceedure adopted by our office In In
diana. 1t never has been the practice
Of this office to search private homes

phase Of the case is provided for salts

can see the amendment, should it become
