RECALL CONFESSION
ABS0Lv|NG FRANK
Georgia Officials Admit Dying
Negro's Statement Was
Partly Ignored.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Ga, October 2.--Echoes
of the famous Leo Frank case were
revived here yesterday when the At
lanta Journal published a story de-
claring a reputed confession that a
negro, and not Frank, killed Mary
Phagan, had been brought to light
again with the discovery that the
confession had never been fully in
vestigated.
Frank, after his sentence of death
had been commuted to life imprison-
ment by Gov. Slaton, was taken by a
mob from the state farm at Milledge-
willie to a point near Marietta. the
home of the slain girl, and hanged.
According to the Journals story, the
reputed confession was made by q
negro believed to be named Freeman
when he thought he was dying In the
Atlanta federal prison.
The confession, the Journal said,
named a negro. Jim Conley, whose
testimony in the trial of Frank was
regarded as highly instrumental in
Franks conviction as the real slayer.
Local officials to whom the CONFESSION
was reported ten years ago declare
they remember some details or the
affair and recall that after they had
failed to make progress in inyeSti-
eating it they gave 1t up, betfeVinS
the confession was false.

The complete report by DIR. Alexander

DIR. Gettlers report is expected to

The senate elections committee reported the Foster Hteracy bill late yesterday afternoon recommend ing that it not be passed. The report was signed by Chairman Brown. of Nome, N. D. Snodgrass of Fair banks, and Aldrich The bill was scheduled to come up for a second reading today.
 Dimond has introduced a bill re- quiring the filing of affidavits in proof of labor on mining claims go days after June 30, instead of De cember, as at present, the change he points out is necessary on account of the change in the assessment work period from the calendar 10 fiscal year.
 Aimed to wipe out the existing cooperative road law, Representative, Wilson, of Nome, has introduced bill providing for the creation of new territorial road commission with perfunctory duties and four divisional road boards in which is vested control of all road construc- ton expenditures. The bill does not mention anywhere cooperation with federal agencies and if enacted into law undoubtedly would result in the loss to Alaska of all federal funds made available by territorial cooperation.
 Foster has introduced a memorial in the house denouncing the Nelson game bill which was before the last session of Congress and asking for territorial control of game
