the records of deeds are audited by

mittee Aid in Probing
Clayton Charges.

Coupled with an emphatic denial of
the statement of William Nick. Clay
ton that there have been irregularities
in the administration of the fire and
police retirement fund, officials OF the
District government today promised
their utmost assistance to the special
committee OF the Federation OF Citi-
zens' Associations which was ap-
pointed Saturday night to investigate
MIR. Clayton's charges.
All of the District officials concerned
with the charges, from Commissioner
Fenning to Chief of Police Hesse. de-
clared that they are certain there has
been no laxity in the retirement and
pensioning of firemen and policemen.
It was pointed out. however, that IN
some cases where men had been re-
tired for physical disability and later
regained their health sufficiently to
continue active work outdoors, the
amount of their pensions had been
reduced.
Cases Of Non.reductiOn.
In other cases. it was said, where
retired firemen and policemen had
taken I'D less arduous private en-
p,ovment than would have been re-
0uf1ed of them in the Fire or Police
Departments. it has not been possible

gust. and he married their neighbor,
Mrs. Kate Resler, four months later.
Gossip in Beaver City drove the couple

missions, and they moved to Lincoln.

ging" for their plight.

ty officials exhumed the body of Mrs.
Davis. and said they found poison
in the stomach. Her relatives in
Iowa aided the investiga ton. as did
Davis oldest son, who formally &C
cused his father of poisoning his
mother.

day, has two children by a former
ma rriage. She was married to Davis
In Manhattan, Kans.
While the case against him was be-
ing built up here. Davis collected evil
demos IN his own behalf, authorities

a degree at Columbia in 1923 after

GROWS IN BELGIUM
Two Veterans Associations
Attack Premier Openly
and Bitterly.
BY the Associated Press.


BRUSSELS. February 1.-THE
growth of a Fascist movement Of
serious proportions in Belgium was
indicated yesterday by several de-
velopments, following Tuesdays Wig
orous Nationalist demonstra tons, of
which Premier Poullet was the prin-
cipal target. Throughout the coun-
try numerous protests have been pub
lfShed showing much discomfort
among taxpayers in regard TO the
governments financial program.
Two veterans associations made
open and vigorous attacks on the
premier. The Naval Association
published an appeal to the King to
dismiss Viscount Poullet and dis
solve Parliament so that new cleo
tions could be held with a view to
the financial regeneration of the
country.
The National Association of Vet
Grams sent an open letter to the
premier declaring that 1t refused TO
accept his homage to the army. The
letter concluded with: The com
batants address to you, to the min
listers who directly or indirectly have
sabotaGed our national defense and
to all parliamentary apaches who suS-
tain you a serious warning and ex-
preston Of their profound contempt"
The Catholic deputy De Burlet.
speaking before delegates of the Fed
Grafton of Catholic Clubs Associa-
tions, denounced the policies of
Premier Poullet and Foreign Minister
Vandervelde. He described the re-
sentiment felt in the army over the
reduction of its strength and new
measures with which it is threatened.
He expressed fear of Germany's
ornaments, which he said were op-
posed by an incompletely equipped
Belgian army. which was being
Sacrificed to the basest demagogy."
This Catholic meeting adopted a
resolution that the federation Will
attempt to prevent the Socialists
from realizing their military pro-
gram.
