Staying Scene
PICKED BY
SUICIDE

NEW ORLEANS, March 81
n.N.sL-The builet.pierced body
Of a middle-aged man was found
late today on the spot where the
charred remains of Mrs. Janet
Baker. 54-year.old. torch murder"
victim, was. discovered in her blaz,
ing automobile SO hours earlier.
The man lay sprawled on the
ground in Audubon Park. known in
police circles as "murderers' half
acre" because three murdered bod.
les have been found there in the
past five years. The man was
identified as John Hartley, con.
struction superintendent of a
boffer plant.
Convinced of Suicide
Police declared it was obvious that
the man had committed suicide.
They were delving into the mans
past life in an attempt to unearth
a motive for his self-destruction,
which, by some irony of fate, oc-
CURED only few yards from where
Mrs. Baker burned to death.
Meanwhile, convinced that Mrs.
Bakers death was murder, the
authorities were searching for q
dark, mysterious male companion
reported to have been seen with the
fashionably dressed widow a few
hours before her unr, cogniZable
body was found trapped in the burn
ing automobile.
This lead was developed by the
statement to police of II. G. Spald-
ing, a roomer in Mrs. Bakers board
ing house, that early yesterday
morning he saw Mrs. Baker leaving
the garage in her car. After she
backed the car into the street, he
said a dark-complexioned man en-
tened the automobile and took the
drivers seat. The car then sped
away.
Last Seen OF Her
So far as the police can ascertain,
that was the last seen of the woman
until firemen were called to extin'
guish an automobile on fire and made
| the grewsome discovery Of woman,
later identified as Mrs. Baker, burn
| ed to a crisp in the locked sedan.
The police said they found evidence
| that the woman's clothes were sat
urated with gasoline. They believe
she was murdered by some archfiend,
who poured gasoline over her, stuck
| a match to her clothes and then fled
, leaving her locked up in the car.

WOOD WILL DEFEND
TREASURY DEMAND
Garner Understood to Be
Planning New Assault on
Tax Refund Item.

With battle impending in the
House over the $75,000,000 tax refund
item in the deficiency bill, soon to be
reported out of committee, Chairman
Will r. Wood of the House appropria-
tionS committee conferred at length
with Secretary Mellon of the Treasury
today, and announced he was prepared
to defend the TreaSury's position.
Minority Leader John Garner of
Texas, who recently assailed the Treas
ury's methods, is understood to be
planning a second assault when the
deficiency bill, with its tax refund item
comes up on the floor.
Chairman Wood said he was pre-
pared to show that the tax refund
items were court decisions and also that
Secretary Mellon never had personally
interfered in any tax case
The Democratic leader, in a recent
speech in the House, charged the Treas
ury with raw" methods in sending its
figures to Congress, and in making es-
Inmates. Secretary Mellon stood pat on
his figures and declared Mr.. Garner's
charges were based on nlisapprehen-
sion of the facts.
Chairman Wood indicated that the
deficiency bill will be reported out in a
few days.

GROUND IS BROKEN
FOR NEW Church
Sixth Presbyterian Edifice to
Be Built at Sixteenth and
Kennedy Streets.

An important addition to the IN
creasing number OF ecclesiastical edl-
fees on Sixteenth street was started
today by the breaking of ground for
the Sixth Presbyterian Church, at the
southeast corner Of Sixteenth ana
Kennedy streets, adjoining the chapel
now used.
The first spade of earth was turned
at 8 o'clock this morning by E. G. Lee,
chairman of the building committee,
followed by an invocation and brief ad-
dress by the pastor, DR.. Godfrey Cho-
bot. The pastor touched briefly on the
long life of service which this church
has had since its organization, January
%, 1853. He expressed the hope that
the erection of this new edifice may
mark a new period of greater useful
ness for the church in the religious life
of the community.
Architect Explains Design.
Joseph Younger, the architect, ex-
planned the design is an adaptation OF
French Norman Gothic church archl-
lecture. There will be a tower about
80 feet in height with imported bells
given by member who wished to ada
the touch of the characteristic French
chimes. The exterior will be con-
structed of rubble stone from the Con-
necticut avenue quarries, with facing
and trim of Indiana limestone and pol
ished granite.
Impressive walnut doors will open
into the vestibule of paneled walnut,
beyond which the Narthex extends in
paneling of the same wood. Entering
the nave, the general impression Will
be one of space and light. Windows of
an imported cathedral glass will give
the impression of constant sunlight.
All the interior walls will be of Brlar
Hill stone and stucco. The height OF
the nave will be enhanced by sweeping
truss-beams supporting roof OF carved
cypress.
Chancel Wall Concentrated Upon.
The architect has concentrated inter-
est on the chancel wall, the feature of
which will be a great inset arch, deco
rated with an illuminated mural paint
ing by an internationally known artist.
The cllancel wall will be of Briar Hill
stone, and the mural in the reredos
will be harmonious Colors so lighted as
to focus the interest. 1t Is believed
that this feature embodying color and
pastoral feeling in painting as the
central decorative note, will be unique

|GOMPERS TRIBUTE
PLANNED BY LABOR

Added impetus was given the move
ment to erect a memorial to the late
Samuel Gompers, noted labor leader,
on the triangle formed by Tenth and
Eleventh streets and Massachusetts,
avenue, for which an estimate of
100000 has been set, with the an
nouncement today that President Will
liam Green of the American Federation
of Labor has just issued call for funds
from all affiliated unions.
Labor leaders desire to have the me-
mortal erected by funds secured wholly
from the organized labor movement
and the week of January 25, which was
his birthday, has been set apart as a
special occasion for making a con-
certed appeal for funds.
The appeal has been delayed by
strikes in the mine fields and other
calls for aid but at the recent con-
vention of the American Federation of
Labor it was decided to instruct Presi-
dent Green to issue the appeal for
1929. Plans for the memorial are in
the hands of the members of the ex-
ecutive committee, who are known as
the Gompers memorial committee, and
consist of:
President Green, Frank Morrison,
secretary of the American Federation
of Labor; Frank Duffy, first vice presi-
dent; T. A, Rickert. second vice presi-

YELLOWLY CLAIMS
DRY LAW VICTORY
Chicago New Year Fun Indi-
Gates Greater Respect,
Administrator Holds.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 2.-E. C. Vel
lowly, prohibition administrator for the
Chicago district, yesterday declared
that the New Year celebration indicates
the city and country are becoming rec
onciled to prohibition and are not find
ing it so very painful
"A certain few he said, persisted
in trying to drink, but they were IN
isolated cases"
Only one raid was made by the pro-
hibition officials who toured the city
New Year eve and only three arrests
were made. Prohibition, agents in no.
tells and cafes mingled with the guests
and ordered the management to con-
fiscate bottles or TASKS openly displayed,
but made no arrests.
Chicago hotels, which entertained
$4,000 guests, and the night clubs and
cafes, which entertained probably as
many more, characterized the celebra-
ton as the liveliest in the citys his
tory.
In his annual report, released today,
Yellowly observed that definite re-
suits" in enforcement of prohibition
had been accomplished in the last year.
adding that diversion of bonded liquor
has been reduced to a minimum and
that smuggling from Canada is one OF
the problems faced by agents now.
Diversion of industrial alcohol has
been cut in half and the principal
problem now is the individual moon
shine distiller
Aside from the liquor angle, Chicago
woke up after its New Year revels to
find three persons killed in automobile
accidents and one shot and killed and
four others wounded by stray shots
fired by New Year celebrators.
Police said it had been the ouietest
New Year eve In a decade, with ar
rests only little above the normal.
