MCPHERSON CASE:
MAID TO TESTIFY
State Expects Her to Prove
OrmiSton Visited Evangelist
in Her Hotel.


LOS ANGELES. October 5.-At-
tempts to prove that Aimee Semple
Mcpherson occupied an ocean resort
cottage leased by Kenneth G.. OrInis
ton. her former radio operator at An.
gelus Temple, instead of "a desert
shack in northern Mexico. TO which
She claims she was carried by kidnap
ers, found attorneys in a scramble for
new evidence as the third investig5t-
tlon of the evangelist's disappearance
entered its second week today.
District Attorney Asa KeyeS con
unued his efforts to support his
charges that Mrs. Mcpherson con
spired to obstruct justice by assigning
more detectives to search for OrInis-
ton and 10y the revival OF evidences as
sembled in the second investigation.
KeyeS also indicated that he would
introduce more documentary evidence
today in an effort TO prove Ormiston
visited the evangelist at a hotel here
on the morning Of May rs. IA few
hours before she disappeared.
State Expects Proof.
The state expects to corroborate
this evidence by calling as a witness
Mrs. Fannie NOrthropp, chamberlnaid
at the hotel where OrInistOn is said
to have registered under the name of
George MCINTYRE. Evidence preVt-
ously introduced showed the cottage
at Carmel-by the-Sea, where keyes
claims Mrs. Mcpherson spent the lat
ter part of May, was leased by Ormis-
ton under the name of McIntyr,'.
The first direct attack on Mrs, Nc
PherSOn'S story was made yesterday
when Deputy District Attorney Joe
Ryan, from the witness stand de
clared that he knew it to be false.
Ryan conducted an investigation from
the district attorneys office when the
pastor reappeared at Douglas. Ariz..
last July with a dramatic recital of
an escape from her abductors. HA
also investigated the strange actions"
of Ormiston, now a fugitive from JUS
tice.
Grocery Slips" Found I'm House.
To substantiate the contention that
Mrs. Mcpherson was the begoGgled
woman who shared a seaside cottage
with Ormiston at Carmel. Ryan told
of having found two grocery slips In
the house after it was vacated by the
couple. He swore that they were "ob-
viously" in the handwriting of the
woman pastor.
the slips nave since disappeared,
Ryan explained, and could not be of
fered in evidence. They were lost in
the grand jury room during a recent
inquiry of Mrs. McPherson's kidnap-
ing charges, he said. He AYERS he
last saw them in the hands of Mrs.
Edith Holmes. one of the grand ju-
rors. Photostatic copies were pre-
served and were admitted in evidence
at yesterdays hearing over the viGor-
GUS protest of defense counsel.
With numerous State witnesses still
scheduled to testify. including several
from Arizona. there was little indica-
ton last night as to when the pre-
liminary hearing would end.

FLOODS EXTENDING
TOWARD ST. LOUIS
Mississippi LoWIands to
North Under Water, With
Trains Being Rerouted.

BY The Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October 5.-The re-
treat of havoc-working waters from
the Midwestern areas first hit by
the clOudbursts that arrived with Oc-
tober, today carried the flood men,
ace down the courses of the larger
tributaries piling on toward the Mis-
sissippi.
Along the Kansas Oklahoma State
line the floods were receding, but low
lands in central Oklahoma, eastern
Missouri and central and western
Illinois were threatened with further
losses in life and property as the
crests moved toward the Gulf.
Homes Hastily Abandoned.
More homes were hastily abandoned
as the water threat increased at
Beardstown in West-central Illinois,
where Illinois River levees gave way
yesterday and let the stream into the
town. Virtually all of the wall in front
of Beardstown had disappeared.
The Sangamon ragged along nearby
under the impetus of the excess drain
age and the situation at Springfield
was called beyond anything in the
history of the State capital. Further
south the danger was from the Kas
kaskia. Mississippi River loWlands to
the north of st. Louis went under
water. spreading backward from the
confluence of the Missouri with the
larger stream. Trains in and out of
st. Louis were hours late and were
rerOuted because of WashOutS in sew
eral instances.
The rivers and creeks climbed to
food stage in central Oklahoma as
the crest was passed to the north.
A hundred deputies were sworn in at
Bartlesville to protect homes of those
who fled before the flood. Dairymen
and other tradesmen used boats to
feed isolated hundreds.
Red Cross Sending Relief.
With damage to crops and property
estimated at millions of dollars, there
was a growing fear for health, be-
cause of threatened water supplies
and exposure to which the homeless
were subjected. Coincident with ap-
peals from central Illinois for relief,
the Midwestern branch of the Ameri-
can Red Cross announced from st.
Louis that workers were on their
way and Adjt. Gen. Black of Illinois
ordered the movement of Army sup
plies into the affected areas.
An unfounded rumor at Springfield
that the city's water supply was in
immediate danger brought hysteria.
and the pumping station was unable
to supply enough pressure, as resi-
dents sought to fill all manner of
water containers. Industrial plants
shut off boiler fires because of the
water shortage.
A promise of clearing skies by to-
morrow over the entire Middle West
brought hope that the flood had done
it's worst.

NAVIGATION SAFER
BECAUSE OF RADIO

Radio is making oceal travel safer.
By the use Of recently perfected thor
lated tungsten tubes, the ice patrol
is new able to flash warnings without
interfering with commerce and broad
casting. Speaking of this invention,
which combines thorium and tungsten,
both metals, for new uses to man
kind, L. A. Hawkins, engineer in
charge Of the research laboratories Of
the General Electric company, said:
"Ice patrol warnings from this
equipment; while reaching much far
Their than ever before, will no longer
be & source of interference with COM
p1erciaI traffic and broadcast enter
tainment. Under favorable conditions,
it is expected that direct communica-
ton viii be had with headquarters in
Washington.
Success for the ice patrol consists
not only in finding bergs, but also II
conveying quickly to ships at sea ex.
act information Of the whereabouts q
these menacing flOaters. Most ships
~traversing the Atlantic are now equip
ped with radio apparatus; hence TIT
fitting Of these patrol boats with tn
best radio transmitters which ccul'
be produced"
Discovery Of new uses Of radio ar
almost a daily occurrence, and it
value to mankind is incalculable.
