NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct ST.
(By The Associated Press).-Mrs.
Jane Gibson who recently dramati-
cally announced that she witnessed
the Hall-Mills murder, today clinch-
er her hold en- the center OF the
stage. by firing q load of birdshot
over the heads of reporters whe
persisted in surrounding her farm
house peppering her with questions.

an army of newspaper men showed
up a her door.
The reporters returned to town
and addressed their questions I o
her over the telephone. She admit
ted hat it was she who welded the
shot gun.

stroying my place all the time" said
the woman of action who explained
her presence near the scene of the
murder by stating that on that

robbers.
"You are liable to get into a lot
of trouble if you persist and the
apers are liable to suit for the
things they are printing about me

and my past has nothing TO dR mstsa
it,"
Mrs. Gibson declared that viii

mixed up in this CASE she said. -It
is not their fault. I did not expect
all this notoriety and I don't wan
them to be involved"
Mrs. Gibson and her shotgun r o
vided the one spectacular feature
of the investigation this morning.
Special Deputy Attorney General
| Mott and his corps of investigators
however were engaged in secret ac-
tivities.
The fact that they refrained from
making any arrests on the state
ments of Mrs. Gibson which In
cluded identification of two persons
who she said were present at the
murder, led to the belief that new
clues were being followed.
NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct. 3I.-
The credibility of Mrs. Jane Gib-
son, who says she was an eye wit
ness of the murders of the Rev
Edward Wheeler Hall, rector Of the
Episcopal church of st. John the
Evangelist, and his choir leader
Mrs. Reinhardt Mills, was subjected
to criticism again today.
Authorities continued their inyes-
tigation into her past, following re-
ports that instead of being the
widow of a clergyman, she is the
wife of William II. Easton. who
works in New Brunswick. and
drives to and from her farm in a
small automobile.
Mrs. Gibson insisted that the
reports were untrue. She denied
that she has a husband or that she

TRUCK LEGISLATION
HAS OPPOSITION

Local motor truck operators general
ly express opposition to the drastic
legislation directed at them. Charles
Hart, who with local fellow truck own
ers declares that the rules will almost
confscate their business, saws letter
Just received from the White truck dis
tributng branch in Portland, fairly
states their claims. The letter fol-
lows:
"The automobile and truck industry
has not only reached the limit, but has
gone a considerable distance beyond
the limit in the matter Of taxes.
Where our senator's and representatives
got the idea that every owner of an
automobile or truck or dealer in gaso-
line driven vehicles has large surplus
of money with which to finance fairs,
build all of our roads and properly
maintain them and take care of any
other undertaking that requires some
cash money we have no idea, but can
assure you that the automobile dealers
of this city are up in arms over the
situation.
1--WE do not believe that any immedi-
ate relief can be obtained but the truck
dealers are holding meeting this noon
with the idea of Immediately laying
plans to Offset the propaganda that has
been brought to make political foot
ball out of the automobile industry
every time our Legislators are SO
inclined.
"You call attention to the use of the
referendum and in the writer's opinion
there is a very good possibility of il
being used successfully not only on
House Bill No. a, but on the legisla.
tion that was put through at special
session in reference to the regulation
of passenger buses and trucks used
over the state highways. In fact, II
the additional tax on gasoline had gone
through for financing the fair, the
Portland Automobile Dealers Associa-
tion had practically definitely decided
to make use of the referendum, but
now that the big issue, namely the
gasoline tax has been held up and
probably killed, there is some doubt as
to whether the majority of the dealers
would be in favor of using the refer
endum on the other things at this
time.
However, the matter will certainly
be discussed and we will be glad to
advise you MS to the decision that is
reached.
There is ore thing sure that the
average user of automobiles and trucks
does not fully appreciate the pressure
that the automobile and truck owners
can bring to bear in matters Of this
kind if they will only pull together.
There is something like 1876, 600 oper-
ators of gasoline driven vehicles in the
state of Oregon and this number of
voters with their friends working for
them can come pretty close to handling
any legi. lative situation that they
might be interested in. Not only can,
but we are going to make the effort to
put it over at the next session of the
Legislature. T"

MRS. C0PPLE RECEIVES
$3.50 WHITE LEGHORN

Mrs. c. f. Copple, of the East Side,
Kent, Wash, White Leghorn cock
erel for which she paid $3.50. This is
the highest priced chicken ever
brought to the valley.
"A bird of the same family as mine,
but Older" says Mr.. Copple, was
bought by Mt. Vernon, Wash, poul.
try fancier for $500.
Mrs. Copple is one of the most sue
cessful poultry raisers in the mid-Co-
lumbia district. She trapnests all of
her stock and applies rigid rules of
hygiene and feeding with her fiocks.
Her records show that her net earn
ings for IL months of last year on a
flock of $50 hens reached $575. She
has one hen. named Lady Macbeth. "
that has a record of SO eggs in 85 days.
Raising poultry is profitable, says
Mrs. Copple, ''but one should never
undertake the task unless willing to
keep very enthusiastic and to eXpend a
lot of pep in the care of the chick
ems. Too many poultry raisers expect
to make a success simply by purchas
ing a few mediocre chickens and then
allowing them to take care of them
selves. No wonder they make failure
of the poultry business. "
The eggs of the mother of the rnost-
er just bought by Mrs. Copple average
26 ounces to the dozen. The bird ship
ped here was passed on by Judge
Coats, internationally known expert,
who spends most of his time judging
