MURDER VICTIM ALIVE
WHEN BODY WAS BURNED
California Police Think Killing of
j. j. Patterson Unusually
Cruel

Santa Ana, Calf, July 90 Pl-
Indications that J. ]. Patterson, Los
Angeles stock broker, in connection
with whose death Rev. Phillip A..
Goodwin, actor priest. was arrested
yesterday In New York, was still
alive when his body was drenched
with gasoline and set afire in Santa
Ana canyon last March, were found
today when the slain mans body
was disinterred.
Investigators said the mans hands
were bound by wire and the body
had not been stripped of identifying
marks. The position of the tongue
in the mouth indicated that Patter-
son had gasped for breath and there
we're marks of his struggles TO free
himself from the bonds which held
him.
Police declared that Patterson's
Ibank account had been checked
against by forged checks. Extradi-
ton papers for the return of Good
win were prepared today and sent
to Long Beach for the signature OF
Gov. Richardson.
Goodwin, who had been ordained
lin the American Catholic church
several months ago. was a nelghbor
of Patterson's and was the last per-
lson seen with him prior to his dis
appearance last March.

ZERO HOUR COMES But
NOTHING HAS HAPPENED
Allegory in Great Pyramid oil
Gizeh Evidently Tells Not
the Truth.

London, July q tP) - Something
evidently is askew with the archi-

Walter Wynn, the on-conformist
pastor of the United Free church
of the suburb of Chesham.
The something important in the

happened yesterday or early this
morning had not occurred when
Big Ben of Westminster and the

RIGID SELF-DISCIPLINE
URGED BY MACDONALD
Former British Premier Addresses
Worlds Christian Endeayor
Union.

London, July 81 Pl-More rigid
|self-discipline was urged. upon the
young of today by former Premier
]. Ramsay Macdonald, addressing
today's session of the worlds Chris
tan Endeavor convention at the
Crystal palace.
Because of the misery the world
was reaping from the sowing of a
few years ago. he said, youth re-
quired a discipline server, more dras-
tic and more hardening in spiritual
things than had been called for by
any generation for a long period.
The speech was roundly applauded.
Rev. Ira Landreth% of the Ameri-
can delegation, addressing the meet
ing on the topic the youth of the
world for sobriety," said:
! America deserves her reputation
for greatness because of the many
colossal blunders she has committed
but prohibition is not one of them. y

that prohibition at its worst was bet

added, our opponents were politi

) MILES AN HOUR
MIGHT BE SPEEDING
40 Might Not Be, Judge Aling
Says in Court

An automobilist driving five miles
an hour might be guilty of speed
ling and one driving 40 miles an hour
might not be properly classed as a
lspeeder. Judge B. w. Alling said in
police court this morning during the
trial of James Jianatonio of 28S
North street, charged with speeding,
and Charles Brayton of 232 Mather
lstreet, Hartford, charged with vio-
lation of the rules of the road. The
Judge said he believed both technic-
lally guilty but he preferred to leave
the cases to the civil courts for dis
position, and he discharged both
idrivers.
! The arrests were made by Ser
geant Patrick ]. O'Mara last Sun
Iday afternoon, following a collision
between an automobile driven by
iJianatonio and a truck owned by the
Standard Paper company of Hart
ford, and driven by Brayton, at
East Main and Laurel streets. Bray
ton was turning into East Main
street and because of the length of
the truck he cut the corner short,
and Jianatonio applied the brakes
on his car and slid 48 feet, coming
Ito a stop when his car struck the
truck, according to the testimony.
Attorney Israel Nair, representing
iJianatonio, claimed there was nc
Ievidence that his client was speed

the statutes do not specify the speed
at which cars can be legally operat.
led on the highways and If driver
went through Main street on Sat.
Iurday night when the congestion
was great, at the rate OF five miles
per hour, he might be speeding
whereas under other conditions he
might drive 40 miles an hour anc
mot be guilty of speeding.
Attorney M. D. SAKE, representing
Brayton, said Jianatonio came along
East Main street so fast he could no
stop his car in time to avoid thu
lcollision. The reason BraytoI
made a short turn coming into Eas
Main street was that there was {
car parked near the corner and h
could not take the proper turn, III
said.

jewels TAKEN
FROM ACTRESS
Elsie Janis Must Explain to
Customs Officers

New York. July 81 up = Jewels
belonging to Elsie Janis and valued
at $4,000 today were in the hands
;of customs officials who seized
them on the actress return from
| Europe with 800 customs declara-
, ton of duitable goods purchased
abroad.
The one time darling of the
American soldiers in France says
she cannot understand why. Nor
can her mother, Mrs. Josephine
Janis. who arrived with Miss Janis
yesterday on the liner Paris, on her
return from vaudeville engage
ments in Paris and London.
1.-THE fact is" Miss Janis con-
fded after she had been stripped
| of two string pearl necklace, dia-
mond earrings, and diamond
brooch, 81 have no jewels. 1t is a
| Joke to describe the few things l
possess as jewels. / am not the
type for jewels and do not possess
them. There was a time in my life,
some years back, when I might be
said to have jewels, but not to-
day."
She said her little trinkets which
she had owned for years and were
not dutiable were not insured for
S30,000, but we're worth more. Gus
toms officials suggested $4,000 as
a proper valuation. They also sug-
gested that she might explain to a

Yanks Wake Up World
With Morning Alarms
By George H. Manning


washington Correspondent OF the
New Britain Herald)
Washington, July 21.-The United
States does its share toward waking
the world UP in the morning, but
1t does little toward keeping the
world on time the rest of the day.
During the three months of
March, April, and May--the last
three months for which statistics
are available-the United States
sold to foreign countries 1881 one
day alarm clocks the United States
Department of Commerce reports.
During the same period, however,
the United States exported 170,640
watches, of which only 1864 were
watches with jewels.
Continuous slump in the value of
the exports of watches and parts of
watches was noted during the three
months, the value of the March ex-
ports being s164,323; April, $780,
757; and May, s107,345.
April had the highest exports in
clocks, the figures being: March,
s129,62O; April $151,629; May
s149,276. This includes the value OF
exported alarm clocks, mantel and
novelty clocks, wall clocks, other
