 Company's Plans


 Plans for the establishment of a Seattle-Juneau and later a Seattle Fairbanks air mail passenger and express service by the Interna- tional Airways, were revealed here today by Gerald J. Smith, here representing the company. The first intimation that such a serv- ice was contemplated was given Friday by him to the Chamber of Commerce.
 His short statement to the Cham Der was amplified today. Definite schedules will not be made up pending an aerial survey of the route, he said.

Smith will leave here February 27 and will bring the flying boat north on the survey immediately after the delivery, he said
 The company's plans call for a service between Seattle and Fair banks two or three times weekly. But it will first establish itself on the Seattle-Juneau route and develop it's service to the interior later. It is also expected to es- tablish feeder lines covering south eastern Alaska where it is believed a paying business can be built up
 On the original route, stop will be made enroute at Ketchi' kan, and possibly one at Bella Bella, B. c. On this route Sikor' sky amphibians will be operated They will be equipped with two Whitney motors each of 525 horsepower They will have ca pacity of 10 passengers and l,OoO pounds of mail and express.

Stops on this section will be made at White horse and Dawson with Fairbanks as its northern terminus At pres ent the company does not contem plate the establishment of any feeder lines out of Fairbanks. The planes on the land route will also be equipped with 525-horsepowei Pratt-Whitney Hornets.
 1 Hangars for spare equipment will be constructed in the coasl towns on the route. Where Il is necessary, landing fields will pc built at the towns on the overland route.

 Sweeping Command & ss
 Police Commissioner Russell's sweeping command for a search of all garage or other buildings fronting on alleys, probably prompted the hurried effort to destroy the motor ear. The Com missioner orders were directed primarily at mopping up the city's liquor supply, much of which is believed to be stored in entirely unexpected quarters among the killers themselves.
 Nearly Dismantled
 The machine was a 1928 tour ing type used by the police. It was found almost completely dis mantled with identifying marks removed. Parts of the body had been burned or cut away by a hacksaw and acetylene tore h which was found in the garage. A small siren, such as used by the police was also found. Tires had been stripped from the rims. The radiator had been taken off. A gray fedora hat and pistol were found in the garage.

GIRL TELLS PITIFUL
STORY AT SLAYTON
Rock County Girl, Is, Runs
Away From Home to Escape
Alleged Cruelty

A fifteen year old Rock county
girl, who ran away from home to
escape unbearable cruelty and who is
now being held by Sheriff Nelson,
told most pitiful tale to officers Of
that county Monday evening, says
the Murray County Herald.
The young girl, Emma Bendrich,
by name, was brought to the Sheriff S
home by A. P. Brown, of near Had
ley, to whose home the girl, in fati-
gued condition, went for sustenance.
If the girls story is true, her life has
been one of misery and unhappiness
and of literal slavery.
The daughter of Fred Bendrich,
who resides between Kenneth and
Hardwick, she says that she has been
forced at her tender years, to do the
work of man, that she has never
been allowed to speak the English
language in her home, or to read an
American newspaper, that she was
hired out to neighbors to shock corn
with a machine owned by her father,
that she suffered from cold for lack
of wearing apparel, and that she was
constantly in fear of her life because
of her fathers uncomfortable temper.
To prove her statement she dis
played marks on her body, which she
claimed were the results of beatings
administered to her.
Unable to stand the punishment
and the labor, she says she decided to
run away from home. She left her
home Sunday evening about 8 o'clock,
awaiting the darkness to conceal her
whereabouts. She walked all night,
seeking hiding in the bitches when
cars came in view for fear that her
father might be trailing her. Mon
day evening, after walking nearly 40
miles, she was so exhausted and so in
need of nourishment that she went to
the Brown home to appeal for fod.
Given food and rest she was then
brought to Sheriff Nelson.
Having heard her story, Sheriff
Nelson at once phoned Sheriff Oss,
of Rock county, who is Investigating
the case, and who, if what the girl
claims is true, will carry the matter
before the Child Welfare Board Of
Rock county, and the State Board OF
Control For the present, the girl is
remaining at the Nelson home, where
the Sheriff says, she can stay as long
as she wishes.
The girls mother died ten years
ago, leaving three daughters and a
son. The two sisters are 13 and 20
years of age, and the brother is 18
According to Emma's story, the faith.
err has always been cruel, and that
her mother many times prayed that
she might die.
The great economy was practiceo
by the father in clothing her, was
evidenced by the cheap calico dress
the patched stockings and the much
worn shoes she wore. She had neith
er hat nor coat, and when taken in at
the Brown home, was suffering inten-
sely from the cold.
The girls story has excited Slaytor
people to high pitch. Her story
seems unbelievable, but if true, she
will find many newmade friends al
Slayton who will battle for her right:
against all odds.
