MURDER CHARGED
AGAINST YOUTH
Indictment to Be Sought in
Killing of High School Girl
i, 80.
Near Roanoke.
By the Associated press.

By the Associated Press.
ROANOKE, Va, December 20.-R. r.
Hubbard, commonwealth's attorney, last
night lodged formal charge of murder
against Ruren,s Harman in- the Staying
of FTeeda Bolt, Willis High School
senior, last week. The youths indict-
ment will be sought at a special session
of the Roanoke County grand jury jan
uary 6, he said.
Harman, held since Sunday in Floyd
County on a warrant sworn out by the
girls father after her disappearance
last Thursday, is now in Roanoke City
Jail here. Wednesday he furnished the
information leading to discovery of the
girls body ID miles from Roanoke.
Died of StranguIation.
The commonwealth'S, attorneys an.
nounCement was made after DR.. @. A. L.
Kolmer. county coroner, said in his
preliminary report that the girl died,
by strangulatfon.
So far as authorities were willing to
divulge, there is nothing nearer a con-
fession from Harman than informa-
ton he (Harman) gave Deputy Sheriff
Giles Harris that led to the discovery
Of the girls body.
Since telling the deputy about 4
O'Clock Wednesday in the Floyd Jail
where the girls body would be found,
and no casual question by officers has
added to the information they seek in
solving the case. -
Young Harman travelled the road
over which Freeda Bolt must have
taken her last ride; the car in which
she rode was halted at the point where
pnysical evidence shows her body was
dragged through the brush and wet
leaves, 200 feet to the place where it
was found covered with logs, and the
lad, of his own volition, went down the
path that has been we'll marked by
many feet since Sheriff d. P. Hylton
and party of Floyd and Roanoke Off
cers found the body. When he reached
the road after the steep climb back he
shivered and complained of being cold.
Disappeared Week Ago..
Freeda Bolt disappeared week ago
last night, and search for her failed
until o'clock Wednesday when Har-
man gave Deputy Sheriff Harris the
information that led to finding the
body.
Although officers said there was no
dangerous sentiment" in Floyd, they
saw At to bring Harman to the Roanoke
Jail. The body was found in Roanoke
County, but the place where the girl
died has not been determined.

CLARENDON. Va, December 90
Supplementing his statement of yester-
day in answer to charges of Common
wealth Attorney William c. Cloth re-
garding the alleged non-payment of
bills for water and sewer installations
in the Waycroft subdivision of the
Arlington Investment Corporation, of
which he is manager and director,
Supervisor B. M Hedrick today charac-
terized the charges as Childish and
absurd" and countercharged the States
attorney with playing politics.
II note with amusement the feel =
popping OF what Mr. Cloth evidently
intended to be the thunderous roar Of
his opening gun in the next campaign
for commemorative attorney" Mr..
Hedrick declared.
Admits Debt.
Mr.. Hedrick admits the corporations
indebtedness to the county of $40 ,480. .06
and asks, What of it?" Don't other
subdivisions still have unpaid balances
on their water and sewer accounts?" he
continued. What about Country Club
Hills, Waverly Hills and others too
numerous to mention? The facts are a
matter of public record.
THE contract of the Arlington In
vestment Corporation called for pay
ment on the installment plan, just like
over 80 per cent of the other owners of
subdivision The investment company
is doing exactly as do all the others, so
why should it be singled out for at
tack?" Mr.. Hedrick asked.
The investment company, Mr.. He'd
rick asserted, is willing and anxious to
pay what is Just and equitable and
charged that Mr.. Cloth seems to be
trying to prevent settlement" Contin-
uing Mr.. Hedrick states:
"I have the account for the sewer in
my pocket right now and it was not
given to me until after the attorney for
the Commonwealth demanded payment.
The corporation paid. $1,650 on the
water account and $3.50 out OF $4,050
on the sewer account before the bill
was rendered. Does that look as If
they were refusing payment?"
Cloth Writes Letter.
Continuing his efforts to collect what
he claims is due the county for the
Judge Cloth yesterday
addressed letter to Foster Hagan, Sec
retary of the Arlington Investment Cor
poration, requesting that, he be allowed
to present the matter before q meeting
of the board of directors.
II find that your corporation" Judge
Cloth wrote, "is indebted to the county
in the sum of approximately $4,000
for installation of sewers and water in
your subdivision known as Waycroft. |
It is very important that a meeting |
Of your board be called as I wish to
appear before it for the purpose Of |
seeing that the county is paid the OBJ |
legation due it by your corporation"

Reduced Prices On
Tires AT Western
Auto Supply Co.

A new, reduced price schedule
j IN all Western Giant and Wearwall
tires is now in effect at all West
ern Auto Supply Company stores
according to M. w. Smith, local
manager of the company.
"This price reduction comes just
n time for automobile owners to
start the year. on new, fully guaran
| teed Western Auto tires that will
| give them new realization of
tire satisfaction and economy,
says Mr.. Smith. "Western Auto
tires have set new standard of
tire economy based on lower prices
and more mileage. Our policy is
o offer to automobile owners the
finest tires that our long exper-
ience in meeting the demands of
western motoring makes possible.
Tremendous volume, huge resour-
ces and econohical distribution
through our own stores enable US
to keep prices low.
Western Auto tires also give
a new meaning to tire satisfaction.
Scientific design and superior quail
ity are backed by our minimum
mileage guarantee of satisfaction
for the life of the tire by service
at more than $50 conveniently To-
Gated stores. Behind all of this ad-
ded value, as even stronger assur-
ance of the motorists complete and
lasting satisfaction, is our time
proven policy, The Customer is AL
ways Right.
Superior value of Western Au-
to's tires was again demonstrated
in 1928 by the fact that motorists
OF the west purchased more than
a half million Western Giant and
Wear-well tires, more than ever
before in any year in the history
OF our company.
Acceptance by the motoring
public of the new, improved West
en Giant balloon with center trac-
ton, tread, since it's introduction
in September has exceeded our ex-
pectations, and we look forward *
1929 for the greatest year il
western Auto history.
