CHURCH MURDER
IS NO MYSTERY,
MOTT DECLARES
Part Of Story Told by
Eye Witness Veri-
fed, Says State
Investigator.
CBv Associated Pressl

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. J., Oct. 81
1.-THE HaIl-Nfilis case is complex but it
is not mystery"
This was the statement today of Spe-
ciai Deputy Attorney General Wilbur A.
Mott. who has taken over for the state
the investigation of. the double murder
Of Rev. Edward Wheeler Han and Mrs.
Eleanor R. Mills, choir singer. on the
Phillips farm six weeks ago.
With an assertion by Mr.. Mott that
he had found a witness to corroborate
at least part Of the story told by Mrs
Jane Gibson, farmer, who claims to have
witnessed the double shooting and iden-
tilted two members of the death party,
this cryptic statement constituted the
chief development of the day.
In connection with this mention Of a
corroborating witness, furry of ex-
citement was caused by the appearance
in the case Of a mysterious witness, a
pretty girl of 81, who in company with
a state trooper, spent an hour near the
scene of the murder. Whence this girl
came and whittier she departed remained
a mystery. The troopers admitted that
they had taken her to De Russey lane,
leading to the Phillips farm. at the di-
rection of Mr.. Mott. but they declined
to say the purpose of the journey.
Asked by newspaper men if he in
tended to make an arrest or first go be-
fore the grand jury, Mr. Mott replied:
t"If my judgment prevails. the case
will go before the grand jury"
"When?" the spapermen asked.
81 won't say" he replied, and hope
that when it does, you won't know it."

justifiable.
, CBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Oct. e7.-A' sweeping
statement declaring his personal stand
for the eight day in industry and
condemning the 12-hour day and the
seven day week as ''unneeessary, uneco-
nornic and unjustifiable..'' was issued
today by John D. Rockefeller, Jr.
The statemen appears in the form of an
an article signed by Mr.. Rockefeller in the
current issue of the Survey Grapic ana
follows an arraignmentof working con-
ditions in certain Gil fields Of Wyoming

tions
The statement appears in the form Of
within a week Mr.. Rockefeller has given
out in behalf Of the laboring men. The
previous one, issued last Wednesday. took
up the cudgeI in the interest Of coal
miners in Somerset County, Pennsylvania,
and particularly those employed by the

is a stockholder.
Il believe that generally speaking. the
12-hour day and the seven-day week
should no longer De tolerated IN INDUSTRY
either from the viewpoint of public. policy
or of industrial efficiency" the oil mag
nate says in his most recent statement.
Il believe both have been proven to
be unnecessary, uneconomic and unjus-
tifiable."
Even in those industries where the So
called continuous process is an in
evitable feature. Mr.. Rockefeller says he
believes the routine should be SO ad
iusted that the employees can. have at
least one days rest in seven and can
obtain a share of leisure for self elf-devei0p
ment which accompanies the workday OF
approximately eight hours.
With regard to living conditions. even
in isolated localities. like oil camps, Mr..
Rockefeller declares that IL is net only
possible but necessary to make reason
able provisions for the helath. comfort
and contentment OF those who labor there
IN behalf OF the entire community
The article of Mr.. Lynd, which called
forth Mr. Rcckefeler's statement, is an
extensive study OF conditions in the Elk

top hat and more Of a deep sea roll to
his stride than usual.
Still there were moments of deepest
solemnity. Over at Arlington. when
