POLICE DOUBT
THAT DURKIN
is A SUICIDE
Clothing and Letter TO Mother
Found on Bridge Over the
Chicago River

Chicago. Nov. Martin }
Durkin, auto thief and slayer, may
be drowned in the Chicago river. OF
he may have perpetratcd a suicide
hoax with blOodstaincd and shot-tor,
clothing and a farewell letter to his
mother.
The handwriting and clothing
found on the Michigan boulevard
bridge last night were identified as
his by his sister, Lucille. Coast
guards dragged the river all night.
Despite the assertion that the
writer was slowly dying Of bullet
wound in the lung and was desperate
because he had to hide in Easements
and fitch food from iceboxes, the
police doubted the expressed ntcn-
ton to end it all in the river.
Durkin was thought wounded when
he escaped October 90, from a police
trap set in the flat of Lloyd Austin
who, with Sergeant Harry Gray, was
killed in the ensuing pistol fight.
Durkin previously was sought in
many cities after he killed Edward
Shanahan. 4 federal agent who at
tempted to arrest him for automobile
theft.
Regrets Staying
The letter containing II pages, cx-
pressed regret for the shaving and
told Of the writer's love for his moth
err and for Mrs. Betty Werner. with
whose small son, Jack, he had planned
"to start a new and clean life"
Mrs. Werner was sought for queS-
tioning in connection with the sui
eide note, but was not found early to-
day.
1T breaks my heart to do this
thing, but / know it's much better
than getting killed by the police.
They would kill me even before ! got
to trial." the letter said.
Sees That Crime Doesn't Pay
The writer said his arm had been
broken by shotgun fire and that he
had bullet in his lung which made
him think he was getting lockjaw.
"Crime don't pay, l see, but too
late" the letter concluded, express

SIX STATES ARE
REPRESENTED IN
FARM CONFERENCE

st. Paul, Nov. Methods of
commercial organizations in directing
attention to solution Of agricultural
problems were discussed here today
by 80 representatives Of farm and ur-
ban organizations, farmers, bankers,
economists and editors of six states
in the opening session of a two-day
agricultural conference at the st.
Paul Association of Commerce.

tions interested in agriculture to pro-
duce a common program is sought by
the representatives from MINES ota,
Wisconsin, Montana. upper Michigan
and North and South Dakota. Farm
credit. mar keting improvement, diver
slfication and intensification cam
paigns. farm labor, fairs and exhibits.
and social activities, are topics which
will be brought before the group for
consideration today and Saturday.
Cooperation Of industrial and COM
mercial activities with that of agri-
culture is sought ut the conference
by the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, which is sponsoring
the meeting. BY arriving at an un-
derstanding with the farm industry,
the commercial organization feels it
may proceed with a more exacting
program of cooperation.
Research into the value Of organi-
cation in agriculture and valuation of
the benefits Of federal and state ar-
ricultural interests ana means of inn
provement for each, is being made.
Because of the variety of viewpoints
