5 CASE
IS DROPPED

LOS ANGELES, July 21.-Only
new and vital evidence will JUSTIFY
the reopening of the grand jury IN"
vestigation of Aimee Sempie NC
Pherson's kidnapping story, District
Attorney Keyes announced today.
The grand jury late yesterday,
after a three weeks investigation
into the case and after hearing testi-
mony from Mrs. Mcpherson, her
mother and score OF witnesses. re-
fused to return indictments against
the asserted kidnapers who are
claimed to have held the evangelist
a prisoner for more than month.
The finding of the grand jurors
was as follows:
"The grand jury has had pre-
scented to it for consideration the
evidence in the alleged kidnapping OF
Aimee Semple Mcpherson, and finds
that there Is insufficient evidence
to date to warrant an indictment"
II was announced, however, that
the grand jury would be ready at
any time to consider new testimony,
but 1t was not expected that de-
velopments would warrant a re.
sumption OF the hearing.
If Kenneth G. Ormiston, former
radio operator at Angelus Temple,
were willing to appear before the
grand jury, the investigation would
/ be continued, but this possibility
was regarded as extremely unlikely
in view OF Ormiston's declaration IN
a letter from New York city that
( he had no intention OF returning.

sional guide, trapper and hunter. They
! have at least one thing in common,
and that is their love of nature and

x X * X
THE Presidents attachment for
Doty was first inspired when he
heard him talk about the beauties
about them as they were on one of
the Presidents early morning tramps
through the woods. Doty knew the
| trees and the birds and the animals,
and he liked to talk about them. He
| was quick to see that the President,
too. was lover of nature and that he
was a good listener. Happy at the
knowledge of this discovery in the
President, Doty, while tramping with
him, or while on fishing expeditions,
or when they were going to or coming
from the fishing grounds, would tell
him about the habits of the animals
and the. fish. Frequently he would
stop in the woods to point out some
animal track to his interested com
panion. Sometimes the track would
be that of q deer, sometimes a fox.
Very often he pointed out the foot
prints of mink and otter. Once, when
some distance from the cabins of the
camp, he thrilled the President by a
view of a bear track. There are some
black bears in these mountains, but,
according to Doty, they are few and
far between. He assured the Presi.
dent on this occasion that there was
no need to be alarmed. He said black
bears are gentle and never attack
man unless wounded or to protect
their cubs.
The fish weren't biting well one aft
ernoOn and, it being still early, Doty
padded the boat, IN which the Presi
dent and he and one of the secret
service men had been fishing, out of
Osgood Lake. upon which The camp
is located, into Jones Creek, and after
a mile or two through wilderness he
showed the President real beaver

terested, and sat for a long time look.
ing on at the strange, fascinating
sight, all the while asking many ques-
tons about this queer animal and it's
wonderful workmanship.
Within the Presidents vision was

cally and more substantially construct

and somewhat elevated above the
water in the dam were the houses of

Thus was the kindling of a genuine
understanding and strong friendship
between these two men. Mr.. Coolidge
enjoyed hearing Doty tell about the
animals of the mountains. He liked
to hear him discuss the trees and the
shrubbery. 1t was from this guide
and companion that the President
since coming up here, has learned to
tell a balsam from q white pine and
a spruce. 1t was Doty who took him
to remote woods near Meecham Lake,
about three miles from Osgood Lake,
where, after q wait in the stiffness of
the wilderness, they were rewarded

Hill went over the matter of mutt

convicted Wirz. One was Il report by

the Confederate Government to make
