NEW BRUNSWICK, y. j., Dec. g
The Hall-Mills murder case has
gone into the dusty pigeonhole OF
crimes unsolved mysteries.
The Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall
and his choir singer, Mrs. Eleanor
Mills. murdered here nearly three
months ago. have Joined the hall OF
fame along with such famous fig
ures as Doroty Arnold, Joseph FL
well and William Desmond Taylor.
Failure Of the grand jury to indlct
anybody in the double murder sug-
gests to criminologists the question:
Is the Hall-Mills case permanently
pigeonholed?
Two other famous cases remain
unsolved mysteries
Dorothy Arnold disappeared Dec.
y. 1910. She was never seen again
after coming out OF a Fifth Avenue
book store in New York that day
Secret search went on until Jan.
%, 1911, when the case was reported
to the police. Since then a fortune
mas been spent running down thou
sands OF clues and q Is stlll unknown
whether she was murdered. KID
naped or committed suicide.
For two and a half years every
effort has failed to solve the mystery
OF the murder OF Joseph Bovine FL
well. bridge whist expert and turf
man.
Elwell was found in his New York
apartment in the early morning OF
June II. 1920. dying OF a bullet
wound in the forehead. The suicide
theory was discarded but his as
sassin has never been found.
Most recent OF other famous IN

Measure
TAssociated Press Dispatch ]


Washington February n. = The
North Dakota law regarding grain in
spection and purchase, was today de-
clared invalid by the supreme court
in an opinion read by Justice Day.
The state courts In proceedings in
stituted against the Farmers Grain
company Of Embden N. D., upheld the
law. The court Of appeals for the
eighth circuit reversed the decision,
holding the law in conflict with federal
statutes and an interference with I'm
terstate commerce. Its decision was
affirmed today.
Justice Brandeis announced he and
Justice Holmes and Clarke did not APP
prove the opinion. He asserted the
law was valid exercise Of its, police
power to prevent the perpetration OF
fraud within the state and protect the
consumer against the seller. He stat
ed the court should have upheld the
law eliminating from 1t any conflict
there might be between the state law
and federal control over interstate

Starting out fn q small way, Mr..
Watts introduced q pure bred sire

each cow is doubly tested for any
signs of reaction from tuberculosis
before she is placed on the accredited
list. Should cow show any signs
of reaction she is at once dropped
precautions milk from the accredited
animals is perfectly safe for human
consumption.
One OF the eight daughters Of the
purebred sire, which Mr.. Watts pur-
chased in Wisconsin. in the past ten
months has produced $50 pounds OF

of butter actually capable of being
made from this amount OF butter fat,

which can be produced from that
amount. The milk and cream pro-
