WOMAN DESCRIBES
BURIAL OF CHILDREN
New Jersey Police Led to
Graves of Two Whose Deaths
Are Being Probed.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CAMDEN, N. j., November H.
Gladys May Parks, under arrest for
murder, today under escort of Camden
police visited the burial places of the
two children she is accused of killing
and described how she had disposed Of
the bodies.
Surrendering to police at Newark,
N. j., early Sunday morning, Miss Parks
said that one child, Dorothy Rogers, 4,
died after whipping, and that Timothy
Rogers, 2, died by accident from fall
down stairs.
Frightened by death of the two chill
dren, Miss Parks said, she buried the
bodies after sprinkling them with I've,
the girl at National Park near here, and
the boy at Absecond near Atlantic City.
They were the children OF Alan
Rogers of woodbury. N. j., an insurance
broker, whose wife died year ago
leaving six children. Miss Parks was a
cousin of Mrs. Rogers and was given
the two younger children to raise.
Heads Thought Severed.
Despite her assertions that the chill
dren died by accident, the authorities
today believed they had found q flaw in
her confession. In both instances when
the skeletons were found the skulls
were apart from the rest of the bones.
The police say this indicated she had
severel the heads and that proof Of
this would upset her claim that the
children were not deliberately slain.
Accompanied by Prosecutor Clifford
A. Baldwin, the police took the woman
from the Camden jail shortly after 8
am. today. They told her they wished
her to show them exactly how she had
disposed of the children. She calmly
agreed to do so.
The party first went over the route
which, In her confession, she had de-
scribed as taking in disposing OF the
body of Timothy.
In automobiles they followed the route
to Absecon, where Timothys dismem-
bered skeleton was found yesterday aft
er she had confessed.
Led to Shallow Grave.
When the prosecutor and detectives
got out Of the automobile she said,
Follow me. know where it is"
She then walked about IS feet into
the woodland. She told how she had
carried into this thicket the brown suit
case IN which she had carried the boys
body, the same suit case in which she
had carried the body of Dorothy to the
woodland burial place at National Park.
When she reached a small hole in
the earth, she stopped, crossed her
hands and began to sob. She said she
had dug shallow grave there and
placed the boys body in it. From
Absecon she was taken to National Park,
where the bones of Dorothy were found
by two 11-year-old girls on November
2. It was the discovery of this skele-
ton that led to the hunt for and final
surrender Of the woman,

TO FIGHT
LARGE SUBMARINES
Admiralty Intends to Take Up
Size at Naval Farley
in. London.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Chicsso Daily News co Cop Is" iS2s j-'
LONDON, November 1.-THE British
admiralty intends taking up seriously
the size of submarines at the coming
naval disarmament conference. Prime
Minister Ramsay Macdonald, in his
honest endeavor to insure world peace,
wanted submarines completely abolish
ed. Since his return from the United
States his advisers have shown him
that, for the time being, neither Italy
nor France can agree to such policy,
but much can be done if the size of
the underseagoing craft is substantially
reduced.
At present it seems that the policy of
the minor sea powers Is to increase the
tonnage of submarines to such an ex-
tent that they reach the size of small
cruisers. France is launching next week
her first vessel of that type. It is a
4,000-ton submarine armed with SIS
inch guns and carrying a seaplane. It
has broadside as we'll as stem and stern
torpedo tubes capable of discharging
IA torpedoes simultaneously. The deck
is heavily armored, to offer adequate
protection against shells and bombs, and
a battery of anti-aircraft guns is placed
amidships.
Neither Great Britain nor the United
States possesses such powerful "subma-
rine cruisers" Britain's largest sub
marine, the XII, is of only 2,525 tons
dead weight, while Americas largest
submarine is 1880 tons. The new
French mammoth Is capable of sub
merging to a depth of 430 feet, which
is 80 feet deeper than any other sub
marine has diVed.

Locomotive Overturns.
The robbers, carrying out an appar-
emily we'll planned plot, chose curve
in the tracks to pry loose 10 lengths
of rail with tools they are believed to
have stolen from an equipment shed at
Saugus.
The speeding locomotive hit the
weakened rails and plowed. into ditch,
overturning and carrying with it bag
gage and mail cars and two coaches.
Seven other cars Of the train remained
upright
AS the train crashed to halt, two
masked men waving revolverS appeared
in sleeping car four lengths from the
end of the train.
They encountered Conductor Otis L.
French. One of them said, There is
raIiaf train dIa from SQnQIIC AnV
moment-and I'll trouble you for all
the money you have, If you don't mind"
The conductor felt gun against his
side and raised his hands. Then turn
ing to the frightened men and women
passengers one shouted CURLY, Move
backward and shell out!"
The passengers of the last four cars
were herded to the end of the train.
Lining approximately score OF them
against seats, one made a methodical
search of their clothing, while the
other stood on a stool, covering them
with his gun. They took only cash,
refusing jewelry.
AS they completed their looting.
they ran to the forward end of the
car and disappeared in the night The
rough country provided them with nu-
merous hiding places.
Posses Are Organized.
Posses OF deputy SnerluS ana armed
citizens were organized hurriedly and
a search was spread over the countryside.
All highways were patrolled, and re-
ports of ranchers that they had seen
small green coupe near the scene
not long before the accident directed
authorities to a close check of auto
mobiles.
Last week a track walker found q
Ioosened rail near Saugus few min
utes after Southern Pacific passen-
ger train had passed over the track in
safety. Railroad officials at that time
expressed the belief that the rail had
been loosened in an attempt to wreck
train.
Near the train detectives found two
bottles partially filled with liquor and
the remains of a lunch Eighteen feet
away they came upon the missing
crowbar and wrench.
Wrecking crews were dispatched to
the scene, and a train left here late
last night to return the passengers to
Los Angeles.
In their haste to escape the robbers
paid no attention to- the mail car,
