HUNT FRUITLESS
FOR BOYS BODY
Child Murder Confession Is
Branded as False.

BIZ United Press
WOOSTER, O., Feb. 17.-Depu-
ties who have been digging since be-
fore dawn in the yard OF Charles
Hanna, who told them they would
find the body of Melvin Horst, a.
there, abandoned the yard later to-
day and declared they believed an
other false story had been Sworn
to" In the battling mystery of the
boys disappearance.
Hanna had been questioned all
night. Finally he blurted out that
Earl Connold, old crony of his, had
killed the boy and buried the body
in tn eyard of Hanna's former
home. He led authorities, deputies
and street department workers to
the yard and they dug five feet into
the ground over an area of seven
square feet before they realized they
had been miSled again.
Authorities are convinced that
Hanna's story that Connold killed
the boy to get even" with Roy
Horst. uncle of Melvin, marshal,
who had been hard on the neighbOr-
hood bootleggers, was false.
They took him back to Wayne
county jail and gave up hope Of find
ing the body.

FIREMEN BLAMED

ton of flremen in other lines of
work, thus preventing many union
men from obtaining employment.
Investigation of their protest re-
vealed that fremen frequently work
as painters, plaStererS musicians,
mechanics, statesmen, etc.
And they do not conf1ne their out
side duties to the alternate days on
which they are free from duty at
fire houses, despite departmental
orders that when fireman Is on
duty ne must remain In the station
house to which he is assigned.
For example, department records
show that Earl p. Lombard, 847
Lincoln street, draws a monthly SAL
airy as a fireman, while city d.
rectory lists him as a Naturopath.
F'iremen say he is not assigned to
any company, but attached to Com
pany q.
They declare they are told to visit
him after fires If they wish rub
downs for sprains and bruises and
to prevent catching cold
No fire department record has
been unearthed to indicate the ap-
pointment by the safety board of a
department naturopath, although
regular police and fire surgeons are
listed. AS a fireman, Lombard Is
paid $168 monthly.
LombardS Office is In connection
with his residence. A telephone call
revealed that:
mfr. Lombard Is in his Office
every day, from until s in the
afternoon and from 2 until 8 on
Tuesdays" q woman's voice de-
clared.
Union officials have charged that
f1remen constantly seek employment
outside the fire houses. Firemen
With musical talent have been as
isgned to jobs that engage them
only during daylight hours, so they
may be free to accept orchestra
employment at night.
Added to these charges today was
the allegation of West Indianap-
oils resident that two f1remen live
outside the city. send their children
to county schools, and pay no taxes
to Indianapolis.
