ANOTHER RAYON
PLANT SEEN

RICHMOND. Va, Jan. o.
Another rayon plant will be built
in Virginia by the Du Pont inter
eStS just as soon as business con-
ditions indicate an increasing de-
mand for more rayon in this
general region.
This statement was made by
j. L. Warner, senior consulting
engineer of the E. I. du Pont de
Nemours and Company, before a
joint meeting of the State sec
ton of the National Engineering
Societies. Warner, who was
chiefly responsible for selecting
Richmond and Waynesboro for
Du Pont plant sites sketched the
company's activities in Virginia
before and during the recent
great war, mentioning the de-
velopmentS at Hopewell, PENN
man and Seven Pines.
Speaking of Du Pont industries
in Virginia, Warner asked and
answered several questions as to
why the Ampthill site near Rich
mond and the Waynesboro loca-
ton were chosen after a study
Of 80 or more locations.

To SEEK
IMPROVEMENTS

LURAY, Jan. %. Improve
ments in the city streets and
water system, construction Of a
new town bridge, and building of
a sewerage system, with a contem-
plated expenditure of $200,545 is
being considered by the city coun-
Gil.
The matter was made public at
a meeting held by the council of
business men.
The items on the program in
clude: Water system and fire pro-
lection. $52,500; street construc-
ton, $4,000; bridge over Hawks
bill creek, $4,000, and sewerage
system, $86,045.
Of this amount it is thought
that the State highway commits
sion will pay $4,000 toward the
streets. Other revenues will be
able to provide for certain indebt-
edness and bond issue for about
100000 carrying Az per cent in
terest probably will be asked.
The figures are based on sur
veys made by engineers employed
by the city.

D. G.S. REPORTS
LARGE GAINS

The phenomenal growth of
the District Grocery Stores, Inc,
during the past six months has so
increased the work of officers
that two additional vice presi-
dents are required to cope with
the problems of the business, &C
cording to A S. Kay, president
Of the organization.
At Kay's request the two addi-
tional officers we're chosen at the
Semi-annual meeting of the Dis
trict Grocery Stores, held recently
at the Jewish Community Center.
The presidents request for the
additional officers was contained
in his Semi-annual report.
The report sketched briefly
the progress achieved in the last
half of 1929, which is attested
to by the addition of 35 new
store members. The D. G.. S.
chain of stores now number ITO
up-to-date complete food stores
in Washington and vicinity. Bust
ness in all D. G. S. stores showed
very healthy increases, and the
general outlook for 1880 is better
than at any time in their bust,
ness history, Kay's report further
stated.
Jhillip Cohen and Isaac Jacob
son were unanimously elected as
the two new vice presidents, to
relieve President Kay of some of
his too numerous duties. NJ
Vigderhouse continues as first
vice president.
AS the board of directors of
the D. G. S. are elected twice a

CRABTREE ASKS
FOR CHANGE
Of VENUE

ROMNEY, w. Va, Jan. 28.-The
fight for change of venue Waged
by counsel for Walter Crabtree,
who went on trial here yesterday
charged with the murder of three
local residents last December 10
was continued over into today.
Presenting a number of aft
davits to uphold their plea. the
defense was met with counter-affi-
davits presented by the State, and
as the first day of the trial closed,
Judge A. G. Hughes, of Kingwood
who is occupying the bench in
place of Judge H. G. Kump, regu-
lar jurist, who will probably be
called as a witness, had not
handed down a decision.
Earlier in the day Judge Hughes
denied motions by the defense to
postpone the trial and to quash
the indictment. charging Crab
tree with the death of Magistrate
H. c. InSkeep.
Jail Heavily Guarded
A crowded courtroom witnessed
the proceedings. Crabtree was
brought here from KeySer and re-
manned in the Romney Jail last
night under heavy guard, IL State
policemen being posted at the jail.
In efforts to secure a change of
venue, defense submitted exhibits
of a number of newspapers and
affidavits, all expressing the be-
lief that Crabtree would not re-
ceive fair trial at the hands of
a Hampshire county jury-from
Crabtree himself and nine other
individuals.
At the request of counsel for the
defense, DR.. L. V. Guthrie, super
intendent of the Huntington State
Hospital and State alienist, and
DR.. Cecil Denham, superintendent
Of the Weston State Hospital, will
conduct an investigation regard
ing the sanity of Crabtree.
1t was expected that Crabtree
would plead insanity. Both sides
have already summoned a mum
Der of aleni3tS.
The three for whose deaths
Crabtree is being tried were Jus
tice of the Peace H. Carter In,
skeep, Jailer Ben E. Miller and
Edward Wolford. They were
killed during the early morning of
December 10
Revenge was said to have been
the motive III the cases of InSkeep
and Miller. TO whom Crabtree bore
a grudge dating from previous in
generations for minor offenSeS.
Wolford was believed to have
been a victim of mistaken iden
tity, killed by a shotgun charge
fired through a window of his
home. Three women were also
slightly wounded by Crabtree from
| flying shot.
Officers quickly summoned
caused Crabtree to double back tc
his home, where he was captured
a short time later. 1t was said
at the time that Crabtree had

8 CAPITAL GIRLS
WERE ANNOYED
At STATION

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, Jan.
28.-At special called meeting of
the city council last night, com.
mittee was appointed to inveSti.
gate the report that Policemen j.
P. Smith and Arthur Kendall have
annoyed three Washington girls
who we're marooned here during
the night of August 81, after
missing the Richmond, Fredericks-
burg and Potomac Railroad Com.
pany's bus to Colonial Beach, and
who were spending the night in
the station while awaiting the
early morning bus, which leaves
at a. m.
The special meeting Of the
council and the decision to in.
veStigate allegations against the
policemen was the result of pub
1ished news stories in. which the
charges were made public for the
first time.
Kept Incident Secret
The affair had been brought to
the attention Of Commissioner of
Public Welfare w. S. Chesley at
the time, and he turned it over
to the chief of police for inveSti-
cation, but kept the incident
secret and failed to report it to
the police committee of the city
council, which has direct super
vision of police.
Chief Perry made an investiga-
ton and called before him en-
ployes of the railroad company,
but as far as can be learned did
not call the girls. The girls
names were known at the time
to at least one of those connected
with the affair, but whether or
not the chief of police has the
names cannot be ascertained.
Public Probe Demanded
The council meeting came after
q public demand for some kind
of open investigation.
Commissioner CheSley told the
council that the affair had never
been reported to him, but that it
had been brought to his attention
by an employe of the railroad
company a few days after it &C.
CURED. He said that he would
put no obstacle in the way of a
council investigation. Other mem
bers demanded an investigation,
and it was decided to place the
investigation in the hands of two
council committees, one the COM
mittee on police.
Preparation of a list of names
OF witnesses to be called before
the committee was begun at once,
many names being suggested
while the meeting was in session.
No specific time has been set for
the first meeting.

Wife SUFFERS
FOR 20 YEARS
Hope Abandoned Until
TanIae Quickly Ended All
Signs Of Stomach Troubles

Day after day, come glowing
reports of new conquests won by
this amazing medicine-Tanlac-
over stomach troubles and bowel
disorders; of remarkable victories
over cases of nervousness, chronic
headaches and even rheumatism
and neuritis. No wonder local
druggists are loud in their praise
of this remarkable medicine, so
different in that it makes good all
it's claims.
In desperation after failures
with all sorts Of other treatments,
hundreds here in this town, who
thought they had to go on suffer-
ing to the end of their days, have
taken Tanlac with results so
speedily beneficial as to be abso-
lutely amazing. Here's a recent
case that tells the story of Tanlac
in a nutshell. Mr.. T. H Bayes
says after everything failed
along came Tanlac and easily and
quickly ended 20 years stomach
suffering for my wife. She eats
everything now"
Tanlac is a real medicine-for-
INFLATED according to modern
medical science-that's the reason
why it is just as helpful in stub
born unyielding cases as it is in
mild cases. Find out about Tanlae
for yourself-learn why it is be-
ing used by millions-why over
$4,000, 900 bottles have been sold.
See how the very first bottle helms
you and 1t must-for every Local
druggist sells Tanlae with a guar
antee Of satisfaction or money

HUNTER SEARCH
IS CONTINUED
INTO CANADA

WAYNESBORO, Va, Jan. %,
Is Harry L. Shue, eccentric
Waynesborian, off in distant
Canada enjoying the dreams of
his early boyhood in hunting big
game, or is his body occupying
an unnamed grave, a victim of
his own carlesSness while hunt.
ing in the Virginia hills, or of
the confidence of his fellowman
along the Virginia highways?
Shue, % years old and a son
of w. E. Shue, of this city, disap-
peared from his home on the
morning of December Is, leaving
for the woods on a days hunt
ing trip. He hunted that day
through the mountains, seven
miles north of this city.
With two companions, he be-
came lost, and it was midnight,
according to these two, before
they returned to WayneSboro
and separated for their reSpec-
tive homes.
Stick to Stories
Since that hour, Shue has not
been seen or heard from.
The two men, questioned by
authorities and relatives, are
Staunch in their statements Of
Shue'S having returned to the
city with them, and the
woods in which they hunted
that day were searched thor
Oughly. Both men are en-
7 plOyeS Of one of the largest
plants of this city, are highly
thought of and are considered
beyond reproach.
On the theory that Shue, who
is a little over S feet tall and
when last seen was attired in
work clothes, might have slept
out on the night he disappeared
and the next day returned to
his hunt, this time in a favorite
woods four miles below his home
relatives organized searching
parties and spent many hours
in beating the thicketS to fine
him, dead or alive, but without
success.
r. His relatives, who had held out
hope Of his being alive, stated
today that Shue was of an &c
centric nature, disappearing at
times, staying a few weeks and
returning. but never as much as
at the present time. Always he
had written within two weeks.
1t was revealed yesterday that
when youngster he read of the
big game hunts in the Canadian
Wilds and had often expressed a
desire to take part in them.
All that is known or can be
learned is that he was believed tc
have been seen early on the morn
ing of the 18th headed over
Alton Pass in the Blue Ridge
Mountains eastward from this
city. This, however. is only a
rumor that cannot be verified.
Search Continues
When Shue left his home, hi
had but a few dollars in hi
pockets and the only jewelry
about his person was an ancient
gold watch, an heirloom handed
down for many generations or
his mothers side, worth in actua
value very little. although worth
quite a sum in its intrinsic value
should he have been killed BY
some companion, who had joined
him in his wanderings, no motive
exists other than a sudden quar-
rel. Should he have been the
victim of a hit-and-run driver
Identification of his body wa!
almost certain. He has diSap
peared as if the Blue Ridge which
has overlooked his lifelong home
had opened and swallowed him
In his little home, beneath thu
shadows of the Blue Hills his
aged father, loser of his life's
companion a few years ago
awaits the return of his favoritt
