MCPHERSON CASE:
AGAIN IS DROPPED
District Attorney Declares
Perjury Trial Would
Cost Too Much.
Nv the Associated Pres.

By the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Calf, August g.
The Aimee Semple Mcpherson disap.
pearance case investigation has been
discontinued again by District Attor-
ney Asa Keyes, because. he declares.
'it would cost the county thousands
Of dollars to convict any one of per-
jury" He also said he considers new
evidence obtained at Carmel, an ocean
resort north of here, as too vague to
be of value.
Abandoning of the inquiry brought
expressions of joy from the Angelus
Temple evangelist and her followers
Mrs. Mcpherson declared she hoped
soon to be able to produce conclusive
evidence to substantiate her kidnap-
ing story. In a sermon last night she
recounted experiences from the time
she disappeared from Ocean Park
Beach May IS, TO appear in Aqua
Prieta, Mexico, June %, and tell Of
being abducted and her escape from
q desert shack.
The case has been opened and
closed a half dozen times since her
disappearance, the last grand jury in
Quiry being launched Thursday on re.
ports from Carmel that a woman an
swering the description of Mrs. Nc
Pherson had visited the resort dur
ing the time the evangelist was miss
ing. Deputy District Attorney Joseph
Ryan, who conducted the Carmel in
vestigation, claimed to have found
evidence that Kenneth G. Ormiston,
former radio operator for Mrs. Nc.
Pherson, had visited Carmel during
the time the pastor was there.
Ryan, who has been active in de-
veloping new clues throughout the in
quiry, last night declared Keyes had
instructed him to take a back seat"
Ryan said he would have a statement
to make as soon as he conferred with
keyes on reasons for dropping the
inquiry.
A letter purporting to have been
sent by Ormiston from Chicago to
support the evangelist's story, has
not been received, or at least made
public. Ormiston, who disappeared
a few days after the evangelist did,
has been sought in all parts of the
country TO testify at the various in
vestigations, but his location has
never been definitely established.
