CAST:

BUFFALO, N. Y, Feb. 6.-The
claim of innocence of Mrs. Fay
Brym Johnson, formerly of GO
Rhode Island Ave. N. W., Wash
ington, held here awaiting trial
on a robbery charge, was strength
ened today when the complaining
witness, William Kinney, a local
insurance agent. was reported
mysteriously missing.
Kinney disappeared few hours
before Mrs. Johnson and her al
legged accomplice, Richard Brown,
were to have been brought to trial
before Judge Albert A. Hartzell
in city court.
Sought BY Police
A city and state wide search by
city police, deputy sheriffs, and
State troopers was ordered by the
Court when the police asserted the
complainant could not be located.
The trial OF the alleged badger
game workers was adjourned until
Wednesday, pending the search.
Unless Kinney is located, the Court
announced, the charges against
Mrs. Johnson and Brown will be
dismissed.
Kinney two weeks ago caused the
arrest Of the couple, alleging that
he was robbed at the point of a
revolver in Mrs. Johnson's apart
ment in an exclusive residential
section of Buffalo.
The robbery was staged, the In
surance agent claims, when Brown,
posing as the woman's husband,

TAX BUREAU

The Internal Revenue Bureau was
absolved of all charges OF "irregu-
Iarity and fraud" in administration
of tax law involving $4,000, 00O, 900
in revenues by majority report Of
the Couzens' special Senatorial COM
mittee filed with the Senate today
by Senator Ernst R) of Kentucky.
Ernst, with Senator Watson CRo
of Indiana, declared the bureau is
entitled to 1.-The respect, admiration
and praise of Congress" for the eff
cient way in which it handled tax
matters. The majority report Of the
committee, signed by Senators Cou-
zens (R) of Michigan, King CD Of
Utah, and Jones CD of New Mexico,
was condemned as ''biased and un-
fair
Ernst frequently attacked the
findings of the majority members,
dismissing their charges sometimes
as deserving OF no consideration"
and again as contrary to the
facts" He reported that the bureau
had made remarkable record by
collecting the $50, 900, 900 900 at a
cost of ''less than 81 for each 500
collected"
Where the majority report found
the tax administration to be replete
with "collusion, dishonesty and IA
voritism," Ernst declared that
"eyery step has been taken to pro-
tect the interests of the Govern
ment."

First note of vice crusade to
be conducted throughout the
Washington school system start
ing Monday, was sounded today
by Stephen E. Kramer, acting
superintendent of schools.
Alarmed over alleged "neckIng
parties" and automobile thefts
among the students, violently
brought to the attention of school
authorities within the last week,
Kramer today ordered all princi-
pals to meet with him Monday
morning to check the alarming
situation.
Farley Is Held
This decision was made after =
conference between Alvin w. Miller,
principal of Central High School,
and Kramer. Miller thoroughly ex-
planned conditions at his school
At present five boys from Central

thefts and truancy. Their cases
have vet to be decided upon.

explained. that stealing cars and
truancy are not outdoor sports in

says only a few students. if any.
carry liquor TASKS to classes.
There is a rule forbidding stu
dents with automobiles to use them
during recesses or even to be seen
sitting in one This is to cneck
joyrides, Miller declared.
1t is the right Of parents to be
unusually concerned over any re
port of such conditions in the
schools. Kramer admitted. 1t is
because school heads wish to keep
even the intimated element Of vice
among the pupils wholly out OF the
system that officials are taking
these steps, Kramer stated.
