OFFICERSBELIEVE SCHWARTZ KILLED
 VICTIM FOUND
cHARRED BODY FOUND IN RUINS DECLARED TO HAVE BEEN
 PLACED THERE

MARTINEZ, Calif., Aug. 5 (P)- Charles Henry Schwartz, vice presi- dent and general manager of the Pa cifc Cellulose Company is a fugitive from justice, charged with the mur- der of an unidentified man whose charred body was found in the ruins of the cellulose plant Thursday.
 Schwartz has been missing from his home since Thursday, the date of the explosion which destroyed the plant, and officials are convinced that the body found in the ruins is not that of Schwartz, who was insured for over S1O0,OOO at the time of the apparent accident and death.
 A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Schwartz, following the un- ceremonious appearance of Joe Rodri- gues, a laborer, whom the authorities believed was the dead man.
 Sheriff Deal said, "I still am con- vinced it was murder by hammer blows upon the head. The condition of the lungs of the dead man show that he was dead before the explosion took place."
 The authorities believe that the body is that of an unknown man who came here in response to an advertisement. Schwartz wife, who insists that the missing dentist is dead, stated that he had advertised for helper, and told her that he had one coming from New York.

The primroses include some of the
most familiar flowers to readers of
English poetry, from Chaucer to Swim
burne. Their blossoming season eX-
tends from mid-April to mid-May,
when they give a mass of delicate
shades of color, which are hardly
duplicated by any other flower. Among
them are the various shades of poly
anthaS, cowslips, jack-in-the greens
and oX-lips. AS a rule they grow
about So inches high. The solitary
blossoms exhale a delicate fragrance.
In the Summer they present rather
ragged appearance, but with the first
cool nights of Autumn they put on
new foliage.

Sentimental attachment to the bios
soming hedgerows of remembered
English springtimes on the part of
the father and scientific interest in
Horticulture on the part of the son is
combined in a remarkable garden at
l16 Chestnut street, Takoma Park.
The father is Lyle Morrison of the
Biological Survey whose boyhood was
spent in England. He specializes in
England primroses, obtaining his seed
each year from the mother country.
Mr.. Morrison has distributed hundreds
of primrose plants among his Takoma
Park neighbors in an effort to dupli-
cate something of the atmosphere of
the fields he knew as a boy in the
anvirons of a new world capital. But
the Washington Summer is too hot
and dry, Mr.. Morrison has found, for
the primroses to SOW their own seed
and spread. They must be cultivated
and watered carefully.
