TEACHER ARRESTED
IN DEATH OF GIRL
Three Statutory Charges Are
Filed Against Instructor
at PaWtucket..

BY the Associated Press.
PAWTUCKET, r. T., April 10
Francis w. Wheeler, who resigned as
instructor in the Joseph jerks Junior
High School here Sunday, was arrested
last night on three statutory charges,
one of which carries a l0-year prison
penalty
The arrest was the outcome Of an
investigation into the mysterious death
of Florence Weirbrick, 15-year-old
honor pupil at the school.
The girls body was found on rail-
road tracks in, Central Falls April g.
She had telephoned Wheeler the night
previously that she was going to lend
1t ALL" but whether she was killed by
a train or died before reaching the
tracks never has been offlcially deter
mined.
Oscar I. Heltzen, assistant attorney
general, asserted that the case was
being investigated to run down per-
sistent rumors that the girl was slain,
notwithstanding the official findings of
local authorities that she committed
suicide.
Representative Thomas P. Mccoy,
Democratic floor leader OF the House
of Representatives. announced last
night that he would introduce in the
General Assembly today, resolution
calling upon the attorney generals de-
partment to investigate the conduct Of
Principal Chester NJ. Dascombe of the
Joseph jerks Junior High School on
the ground that that official did not
enforce the warning he gave Wheeler
last February regarding the latter's
association with the Weirbrick girl.

in it shall be handled without gloves by the courts
and the juries.
A vast deal has been said and written about the
constant increase OF number Of convicts on prison
farms and In prison pens. Well courts and many
lawmakers and laymen say that the Dean act Is re-
s~ponsibe. that If the Dean act tracked the federal
law in mild punishment for first offenders and heavy
sentences for the habitual ones who take the risk for
the easy money they see in Illicit traffic. the pris-
on farms and prison pens OF Texas would not be
crowded with farm boys who are caught with small
quantities Of liquor in their possession for beverage
purposes alone and then sent to the penitentiary be-
cause the state law ignores the suspended sentence
act and provides a prison sentence Of from one to
five fears upon conviction.
He who enters here leaves hope behind Is the
inscription written over the main door Of the prison
pen. If it isn't so written, then it should be, for the
youthful offender Is thrown with the hardened crimi-
nal and where there is no parole or pardon there
is no hope.
There should be one law for all In the opinion
of many Of the foremost men Of Texas. In other
words. the state law and the federal law should con-
form or at least one should track the other In the
imposition or penalties upon persons convicted Of
violation Of pro statutes.
