STRIKERS PLAN
FINANCES TO
CONTINUE FIGHT

Manchester, \. H., May 22.-The
beginning of the 18th week of the
great textile strike found the strik-
ers' strategy board furthering plans
for financing the strike. Contrary to
the general report, the AmoSkeag
Company did not start work in any
of its plants today. The strikers,
however, had guarded against such
an emergency by strengthening its
picket lines at mills where it was
thought a start of work might be
made.
1t was planned to hold the first
open air meetings on Sunday next.
General Organizer Hugh Glover
who announced that he was in pos
session of information of a startling
nature, and who limited last night
that the strike was as good as set
tied" addressed the strategy board
today, but did not add to his re-
marks previously made.
Hundreds of dollars We're added to
the relief funds today as the result
of Saturdays tag days held in Mas

ALABAMA COMPANY
MAKES new OFFER
FOR MUSCLE SHOALS

Washington, May 22-(By A. Ply
An offer to comply with terms of the
contract negotiate between the War
Department and the Alabama Power
company when its plant at Gorgas
was enlarged to supply power for the
nitrate plants at Muscle Shoals, Ala
bama. during the war, has been made
to Secretary Weeks by representa-
tives of the company here. The offer
is contained in a proposal to pay
$2,500,000 for the governments in
terest in the plant, railroad and
transmission line from Gorgas to
Muscle Shoals.
Notice that the proposal had been
received was given the senate agri-
culture committee today by Secre-
tary Weeks after the examination of
Hugh l.. Cooper, New York Civilian
engineer adviser to the War De-
rartment and p. NJ. Downey, vice
president Of the Pacific Gas and
Electric company Of San Francisco.
Secretary Wallace also in an auth-
o:ized statement presented by DR.
Richard c. Tolman, said the agricul
tural department favored any dcvel-
opment by private or government
control which would insure the use
of Muscle Shoals in making fertili
Zers. The secretary explained thct
sir. Ford's was the only o''9r before
congress when his, statement was
made recently before the house mill
tary committee commencing that
proposal
Mr.. Downey on examination by the
committee said he had been asked by
Secretary Hoover to investigate and
report upon t. 'uscle "ho">s w
or projects soon after Mr.. Ford made
lis offer for developing the shoals
He added that ter visit 10 the
properties he reported it was his
opinion that the power should be
81 pplied to the public generally rath-
er than TO an individual locally sit
uatcd."
1t was also his opinion. tho it
ness said, that it would "bc a mistake

BLACKMA|LER
KILLED BY WARD,
SON MILLIONAIRE
Slayer Tells of Plot to
Mulct Him of
100000
Trio Forced $4,000 and De-
manded $4,000 More or Wife
and Two Children Would Be
Killed-Peters Slain in Row
Following Refusal-On Trail
of Pals

White Plains, n. Y, Nay oo-Black-
mail levies totalling $4,000 were fore
ed from Walter S. Ward of New Ro-
chelle, son of the millionaire head of
the Ward Baking Company OF New
York, before he shot and killed Clar-
ence Peters, a former sailor Of Ha-
verhill, Mass, it was declared tonight
following his confession and arrest
today.
This, with the announcement of
Sheriff Werner that he expected to
have under arrest within "a hours two
alleged accomplices Of Peters in the
blackmail plot, was the newest devcl-
opment tonight in the sensational
case.
The shooting, according to Ward,
occurred after Peters and his two al
! legged accomplices had threatened to
! kill his wife and their two children if
he did not pay an additional levy of
$4,000.
After surrendering himself to Sher-
if Werner today, Ward, who is 81
years old, is alleged to have declared
that Peters, whom he had known sew
| eral years, and two companions
known to him only, as Charlie Ross"
and Jack" had been Matchmaking
him for the past six weeks. He said
they had forced from him various
sums, totalling approximately $4,000.
Last Tuesday Ward is said to have
declared, he met Peters by appoint
ment near New Rochelle This fol-
lowed the receipt of letter and nu-
merous telephone calls from the trio,
demanding a final payment of $4,000.
Ward, ac' ording to the officials,
drove Peters in his motor car to a
spot near the Kensico reservoir where
they were met, he declared. by the two
men known to him as ROSS" and
Jack"
An argument arose, and Peters is
said to have shot at Ward, who said
he returned the fire. The former sail
or fell and his companions, according
to Ward. opened fire on him. He an
swered their fire. he told the sheriff,
until they fed, leaving Peters body
lying in the grass by the roadside.
After his confession. Ward was
taken before District Attorney Weeks
and released in $4,000 bail, which he
furnished in cash.
Authorities are tonight conccntrat-
ing their efforts on finding the men
known as Gross and Jack" whom
Sheriff Werner claims to know by
their real names. He also declares
he knows their whereabouts and will
have them in custody some time to-
morrow.
Efforts also are being made to I'M
earth details of the blackmail plot.
which so far. remains unrevealed by
the authorities.
Peters body was identified a few
days ago when it was claimed nv an
uncle from Havcrhill Ward told the
authorities he believed Peters to be
only wounded and that when he learn
ed he had died he called his ATTORNEYS
and told them his story

Officials Probing
Harvard Explosion

Boston, May 22-FederaJ, state and
Harvard University officials were CO.
operating today in an effort to deter
mine the cause of the explosion last
