Father Takes Lives of Three Children
Then Ends Own Life.
Charlotte, N. c., April 9.-Ruby Lee
Helms, IS year old girl horror strick
Ell and helpless, today saw her father
John Helms, 40, slay two Of her little
brothcrs and sisters in succession
with q wood axe and then saw him
deliberately blow off the top Of his own
head with a shot gun, according to the
story she, the only witness, told Cor
oner Frank Hovis.
The quadruplc tragedy occurred at
the home Of Helms, who occupied a
tenant house on the farm of Robert
Rice, II miles east of Charlotte, about
G:30 o'clock this morning.
Coroner Hovis said the evidence in
dicated that Helms had become rather
suddenly insane, probably as result
of continued i'll health, as he had been
suffering from chronic stomach dis
ease and had appeared deeply depress-
ed when talking with a brother a day
or two ago about his hopeless" con
dition.
According to little Ruby Lee Helms,
she was walking about in the yard
with the nine months old baby, Haze
line, while her mother prepared break
fast, when her father approached with
an axe and with the handle knocked
the baby from her arms, then he went
into the house and with the axe brain
ed two children in bed while she look
ed on through a window, the two be-
ing Brocho, aged six, and Blocker,
aged four. He then grabbed a shot
gun, went out into the yard, placed
the muzzle against his cheek, the gun
standing on the ground, reached down
and pressed the trigger with his
thumb, the load blowing off the top
of the head.
Mrs. Helms and another child, in
addition to Ruby Lee Helms, escaped
without injury and gave the alarm.
Soon neighbors were on the scene and
later Coroner Hovis. The baby did
not die instantly, but was taken to a
hospital in Charlotte, where it died
about two hours later.
1t was said that Helms was formerlf
a cotton mill operative at Charlotte,
but recently moved to the farm.

shots rang out, followed by screams,
and hurried to the spot. He met
Queen who surrendered.
Mrs. Adams has made conflicting
statements about the homocide. To
one of the officers she made the state
mcnt that Queen had killed her broth
cr but that he had been forced to do
it, and in one statement gave some
particulars as to the relative positions
Of the men at the time of the shoot
ing. TO Coroner GLADDEN. she made
the statement that she was not an
eyewitness of the shooting, but was
on the spot in moment after the
shots were fired. She was, of course,
very much excited and overcome by
the terrible tragedy.
1t is believed that liquor was at the
bottom Of the trouble, as the police
Eound a gallon or more whiskey in
the room said to have been occupied
by the two young men.

LITTLE HOPE FOR
PROSPERITY-CO
Attributes Business Adversely To
Failure of u. S. Entering
League.

New York, April 8.--Directly at
tributing our present day business
adversely" to the failure of the United
States to join the League Of Nations,
former Governor James M. Cox, of
Ohio, in an address here today, urged
continuation of the campaign to
have this country Join the league.
His address was made before the
National Democratic Club.
Asserting that "as one surveys con-
ditions at Washington he finds little
ground for hope of a stable pros
pcrity." Mr.. Cox declared that "the
average person Of the average COM
munity believes there is something
radically wrong in Washington and
that it consists chiefly of lack Of
leadership. There is no captain of
the ship.
Governor Cox told his audience that
while there is much regret through
out the country over the aimless way
in which things are drifting, it is not
fair to criticize the president of the
United States.
"He is simply keeping his contract
with the people," Mr.. Cox said. "He
was open and frank in expressing his
opinion as to what the function Of the
executive is. The campaign waged by
his party was largely directed against
the alleged autocratic policies Of Mr..
Wilson. In marking the distinction
which both he and his party made as
between what had been and what was
to be in this regard, the republican
candidate specifically promised what
he would do. He has kept faith. He
doubtless believes his performance is
in precise harmony with what he ac-
cepted as a mandate adopted by seven
million plurality"

DIAL MAKES PLEA
FOR QUICK ACTION
Introduces Bill TO Amend The Cotton
Futures Contract Law.

Washington, April Stalking the
senate committee on agriculture tc
task because they would take no ac.
tion OH Il bill which he introduced, anG
which has been pending before the
committee for almost year to amend
the cotton futures contract law, Sena-
tor Dial made an earnest plea for ac-
ton which would relieve the cotton
growers Of their present pcrilous po-
sition.
A former bill, he said, cured great
many Of the deficits Of the then Gus
tom, but unfortunately it carried the
vicious principle of the custom into
the law, which law permits the seller
Of cotton contract to deliver all of
the contract in any one to ten grades
instead of 80 grades, under the old
custom. He said this is where they
have been slaughtering the lambs and
everybody else ever since. His amend
ment would make it equally fair to
the buyer and the seller Of con-
tract.
Further commenting on this situa-
ton, Senator Dial said he had intro
duced resolution, which has passed
the senate, requesting the federal
trade commission to investigate the
cotton exchanges. The passage of
that resolution, he said, need not inter
ferc at all with the particular bill
which he has introduced to amend the
cotton futures law. There are many
things about the cotton exchanges, he
said, which he desired to have invcsti-
gated, and he said also he had not
the shadow of doubt but of the JUS
ticc Of his bill, and about it's suffi-
cheney in affording relief to our peo-
pie, should it be passed.
in fact" he concluded, "unlcss we
have some legislation to help the cause
of cotton production, it will not be
more than year or two until we shall
have to offer a premium to get people
to raise cotton in the United States.
There is the darkest outlook for a
crop of cotton which / have ever
known.
Congress is unconsciously aiding
the cotton bears every hour it allows
the present la VITO remain unamend
ed.
"My amendment" Senator Dial
said, "does not interfere with the ten
desirable grades, it only classifies
them in three classes-A. B. c., with
basic grade in each class. This is
similar to wheat. This amendment
will make contract flexible enough
for anyone to trade in, and definite
enough to make it worth what it is
claimed to represent, thereby the buy
cr and seller will be on equal terms,
and unquestionably the value of the
commodity will be enhanced"

cations tonight were that the case Of
Clarence w. Loud. who lie being tried
for the murder of Patrolman James
A. Preston of Wakefield on the night
of April last, would not be in the
hands Of the jury until Thursday or
Friday. District Attorney Salton

day and said he expected to put sew
eral more on the stand. John p.
Feeney, counsel for the defence, will
then have an opportunity for sur
buttal. The chief of police Of Hall
fax. n. s.. was on his way to this
city tonight. Salton Stall announced.
to indentify Harry G.. Heller, who as
a defense witness, has told of seeing
four men with an automobile near
the spot where Preston's body was
found.
The states rebuttal was interrupted
to allow DIR. Albert w. Stearns to tes-
tify for the defense as a specialist in
nervous and mental diseases. The
physician said that blows on the
head such as Loud testified he re-
ceived from unknown persons on the
night of the murder would cause a
dazed condition similar to that I'M
der which the defendent says he
made his way home that night.

Polite Enforcement
or Real Thing Is
Issue, SAYS Wilson

Boston. Jan. o3-Harold d. Wilson,
prohibition enforcement supervisor
for this state, today called Vice Pres
ident Collidge into the situation sur
rounding the question of his continu-
ance in office.
In a telegram to the Vice President.
he said:
Law and order is still the issue
in Massachusetts,.
II have been requested to transfer
my law enforcement activities to
some state far removed from Massa-
chusetts on the ground that the old
Bay States does NOT favor genuine.
impartial law enforcement. One of
my issues has been that the prohibit
tory amendment should he enforced
as much as possible by men 100 per
cent. for law enforcement.
"My discharge of striking police
men and the retention by the state
director of some of these gentlemen
is one of the issues. The issue is
clean-cut. Does Massachusetts want
law enforcement from top down. or
the potter more exclusive variety
from the bottom part way up"
1t was after a conference last week
in Washington with Federal Prohi-
Lition Director Haynes and Elmer
c. PottIc, prohibition director for
Massachusetts. with whom Wilson
has been in conflict. that announce
ment was made that the latter had
been offered position elsewhere in
