Columbus held at the Grund hotel
here.
The tri-monthly meeting of the

mously decided to go back to their
districts and advise the different local
councils of the action. There are at

of the members of the organization
will contribute more than the amount
decided upon.

election in this state, Charlotte Mills,
pretty 16-year-old daughter of Mrs.
Eleanor Mills. choir singers who was
murdered with Rev. Doctor Edward
Wheeler Hall, on the night of Sep
TENDER IA. today issued public ap-
peal to citizens of New Jersey to bring
pressure upon the governor and all
other public officials working on the
case, to force immediate arrest of per-
sons who are held to be guilty. She
also sent a vigorous telegram to Gov.
Edwards of this state, asking for an
explanation of the delay in arresting
suspected" persons.
Miss Mills asserted that, altho the
state had at first "bungled" its in
vestigation, Deputy Attorney General
Mott, in charge of the investigation,
had since stated he had sufficient evil
dence upon which to seek indict-
ments.
sJf this is true" declared Miss Mills,
then why has nothing been done to
bring about arrest of the guilty per-
son or persons?"
