desperate struggle by Miss Rappe

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 10 (By The
Associated Press) ).-Representatives of
the District Attorneys office contin-
ued their questioning of those known to
have attended the Arbuckle party last
Monday, and from these, District Attor-
ney Brady said, was obtained evidence
which will be used against the actor
at his trial. Among those questioned

widow of John ID. Spreckels jr.
Mrs. Spreckels told the District At
tofney that she was informed over tn ,
telephone last Friday by Mrs. belmont
that the young actress was in II serious
condition in local hospital. Mrs
belmont asked Mrs. Spreckels to tclc
graph Henry Lehrman in New York
concerning Miss Rappe's condition
After the telegram had been sent Mrs.
Sprcckels told the District Attorney
that she called at the hospital and saw
Miss Rappe.
Mrs. Spreckels said she was not sure
Miss Rappe recognized her, but she
said to Mrs Spreckels: ooh, to think
that led such a quiet life and to think
that | should get into such party
Later in the day Mrs. Spreckels said
she returned to the hospital with an
answer to the telegram she had sent
to Lehrman. On her arrival at the
hospital Mrs Spreckels said the Rappe
girl was unconscious and the telegram
was not read to her.
Mrs. Spreckes told the District At
torney that she then called on DR..
James L. Gordon, pastor Of the First
congregational Church. and asked him
to offer prayers for the dying girl.
Mrs. Sprec1.els met Miss Rappe in this
city in 1915, she added
Joyce Clark. a cafe entertainer, was
summoned to the office Of the captain
of detectives after it was learned that
she had been invited to Arbucklc's
party.
Miss Clark said she went as far as
the lobby of the hotel, but decided not
to go to Arbuckle's rooms. She met
Mrs. belmont the next day, she said,
and Mrs. belmont gave her the details
of the party and the alleged attack.
The arraignment of Arbuckle was
conducted in haze of nashiight smoke,
the flashlights popping with machine

The Commissioner Of Public Safety
of Jersey City announced through his
secretary, Thomas j. Hopkins, that no
"Fatty" Arbucklc pictures will be
shown in Jersey City until the Rappe
case in San Francisco has been salts
factorily cleared up.
There is considerable dissention
among the exhibitors and the question
of showing the Arbuckle releases is far
from receiving an unanimous answer.
G.. NixonHirdlinger, who controls a
large moving picture circuit in Phla-
delphia, when questioned on the sub
ject, said "There is no use kicking
a man when he is down. Arbuckle has
not been brought to trial yet, and until
he is, he cannot be called guilty, accord

but got no reply Finally, after more
than half an hour, she kicked on tine

office, asking for assistance. Assistant
Manager II. ]. Boyle went up, and as
he appeared Arbuckle opened the door
and came out, dressed in pajamas. He
was wearing Miss Rappes hat cooked
at an angle and, the witness said, as
sumed his screen smile"
Miss Rappe, Mrs. belmont said, was
in the room on the bed, moaning. She
was taken to another room and put to
bed. Hotel doctors attended her, but
Mrs. belmont wanted n physician whom
she knew and called DR.. Rumwell. He
treated Miss Rappe until Wednesday,
and then took her to hospital. where
she died Thursday
Or Rumwell told of attending Miss
Rappe. He said he knew she died of
peritontis, but was curious about the
cause. He and another physician made
a post-mortem examination. This was
done without official sanction, and DR..
Rumwell excused his action in what
has been criticized as exceeding his

Will you today find any car that even
approaches Essex in quality and ability,
within hundreds of dollars of its cost?
And doesn't its low cost with such quality
appeal to judicious buyers, whether they
are considering car slightly less in cost,
or have been seeking Essex quality in some
much costlier car?
New-York tribune., 1921-09-13
and now you save $420
Where can you get such ualue?

The Essex has always been an outstanding
value by every standard Of price and quail
ity comparison.
Since it's reduction of price this advantage
is even more evident. Especially interesting
now is price to price measurement of the
Essex against cars you have regarded as
comparable to it in quality.

Ashland wheat, the. new variety

their entire wheat acreage with the

planting of plots of il in addition

THOUGHTS OF TURNOVER

Money invested in business is like
seed which must reproduce itself
sgain and again. If a merchant
buys an article FOR dollar and
never sells it, his dollar is lost. II
he buys for dollar and sells it for
dollar he is out his operating ex-
penses. If he buys il for dollar and
sells il for dollar and a half, but
takes too long TO do so, he is still
operating at loss. For time must
always be taken into consideration

Money has earning power, but
when i is tied up in stock that does
not move quickly then that earning
power is wasted. Turnover means

THE TRADEMARK AND
WHAT 1T STANDS FOR

II is an economic fact that the
name behind merchandise has been
the consistent creator Of better
goods at cheaper prices, as a long
line of manufacturers can testify
and as the average consumer well
knows says a writer.
It is no overstatement to rank the
trademark with the great mechani-
cal inventions of the last century
for, without it, large scale produc-
tion would have been futility, lack
ing large scale market commen-
surate with its output. The large
scale laboratory Of the manufacture
ing chemist with its vast economies,
would have been q business impos-
sibility had not the trademark en-
abled the quantity manufactures to
build up a great demand upon which
he would rely. And the moral benz
eft has equalled the economic. 1t
has constantly made for reliable
goods of high quality and square
dealing with customers.
Square dealing-that is the fun
damental economic fact behind every
trademark. The creator of a trade
mark is compelled to maintain his
quality and sell at a reasonable
price. because to do otherwise is 10
take all value from his trademark.
1t is the anonymous manufacturer,
the fly-by might trade names, who
tricks and schemes to put over dc
fective goods as firsts. He can ar
ford to use such methods, for his
anonymity protects him.
On the other hand the advertiser
of brand under his firm name
cannot. Such firm is in the ex-
act position of the old time crafts
man who made his goods with his
own hands, sold them to his friends
and neighbors, and had to stand be-
hind his product. When machine
manufacturing first came in this
old relationship was lost. with dam
aging consequences to the customer.
The trademark has restored the
old relationship. 1t brings the pro-
ducer of soap, a dental paste, a
safety razor or anything else bear
