WEEKS Is SILENT
ON THE WARD CASE
Has Whip Hand and Will Try
1t When Ready Is His
Only Comment.

Although private detectives engaged
by Westchester county authorities have
spent weeks trying to disprove the state
ment of Walter S. Ward Of New
Rochelle. son of the head of the Ward
Baking Company, that he had been the
victim Of blachmailers and had been
threatened before he killed Clarence
Peters. ex-marine, who was associated
with the bIackmailing gang, they have
learned nothing to shatter his story.
1t has cost Westchester county thou
sands of dollars to run down clews and
theories. but they all revert back to
the story of Ward, who said he shot
Peters In self-defense on a lonely road
near Kensico dam. Ward is living with
his family In New Rochelle, having been
released on $4,000 bail
THE trial will be brought on when
I am ready. I have the whip hand and
no one can force me to go to trial until
/ decide to do so,' said Frederick E.
Weeks, District Attorney, at White
Plains yesterday.
Are there any new developments In
the case?" Mr.. Weeks was asked.
He replied, mo. 1 am not giving any
more information to the press. They
got too much when the Grand Jury was
investigating. You can just say that
/ have nothing to say"
Are the detectives still on the trail
of the blackmailers Ward named?"
II am not talking about the Ward
case any more" Mr.. Weeks replied.
1t Is the general opinion in West
chester county now that Ward will never
be tried. 1t is expected that as soon
as ex-Justice Isaac n Mills of Mount
Vernon returns from his vacation he
will move to test the legality of the
indictment upon which young Ward was
held for murder in the first degree.

is that a member of the William Porvall
family was walking on the Foshay and
Porvall land. near Pleasantville, after
the heavy rains In June and July, and
noticed oil of some sort in various de-
pressions where the water had gathered
in pools. That seems to be as far as the
matter has gone. but rumor got hold 81

expressed the opinion that all of the
country is underlaid with lake of oil

begun. Also the tale has 1t that the

Oidtime residents of Westchester
county recall that about twenty years
ago an oily scum was found in swamp

that the scum was only vegetable oils

A tale that oil has been found In
Westchester county in the vicinity OF
the John D. Rockefeller estate at Po-
cantico Hills has been in circulation
around PleasantvilIe for some time. but
an official on the Rockefeller estate said
yesterday that the oil king Is not losing
any sleep over 1t.
III there was any oil around here.
said this man. Mr.. Rockefeller would
know about 1t. Nobody is excited and
nobody is crazy enough to think OF drill
ing any wells"
That seemed to dispose of the oil
story. yet 1t Is still a pleasant specula-
tion on the part of citizens Of Pleasant
vile and Tarrytown to wonder what Mr..
Rockefeller would have done IL oil had
been found near his estate. It has been
generally understood that he went to
Westchester county to live SO that he
might get away from oil wells ADD oil
dealings, and the belief is rather preva-
lent that If oil is found in Westchester
county the oil king will move away
from 1t.

F YOUR handy man ideas are
centered on the small accessories
OF vour house, consider first among
these the lampshades. Whether the
shade in question is a costly one pur-
chased in a decorators shop or a
very simple one made at home, the
effect in the room, lighted or un-
lighted, must be pleasing. The color
must be in harmony with the room
III the daylight and form a decora-
tive as well as practical lamp when
lighted. So if old lampshasles are to
be discarded or new frames bought
for covering consider we'll the shape,
size and design. Examine them criti-
cally and decide whether they are q
suitable size and shape for their
bases. If they are satisfactory, then
cover them to complement the room.
If you want to be more than a
handy man and really work" at
iampshade making, go to the library
and get the newest and best books
on the subject and on batik, tie dye
ing, shaded dyeing, stenciling and
parchment shade making and "set
to-" But if you have time only for
simple shades here are pointers
enough.
Light Effect ON Color
When you choose your coiors re-
member that certain tints absorb
more light than others. Remember,
too. that in room decorated in the
cool colors greens, blues, grays--
that shades of the warmer t,nts are
welcome for warmth and color effect.
For a room in which blue predomi-
mates use rose or cherry color, or
warm yellow-orange. The latter
gives a cheerful light and is one of
the safest colors to use. Cream and
coppery shades are excellent in
green, brown and cream rooms. A
soft gray lamp might look well in a
gray and ivory room, but so much
light will be absorbed by a gray
shade that the effect will be one of
dinness--a waste of materials as
we'll as electricity. Here again rose,
cherry or warm yellow shade would
be advisable.
Figured silks, plain silks, painted
paper shades to initiate parchment,
chintz, English cotton prints,
striped and checkered cotton fab
RIGS and cretonne can be used with
pleasing effect in bedrooms, wicker
furnished rooms and living porches,
For many lampshades the metallic
iaces, nets and fabrics, as we'll as
brocades, Chinese enbroideries, cot
ton iaces and nets, tied-and-dyed
materials and batiks may be used
