DETROIT AIDS
VALLEY BUREAU
Better Business Chief Is
Ready to Correct Any
Misstatements
Especial to The Herald)

HARLINGEN, July 3o-Headed
by H. w. Riehl. St. Louis, a dele
CATION Of four or five officials OF
the Affiliated Better Business Bu-
reaus, Inc, will visit the Valley in
the near future to aid with the
organization Of a branch OF their
body down here.
This information was received by
a Herald reporter today from Ken
Barnard, president OF the affiliated
bureaus, Detroit. He explained that
a Valley Better Business Bureau or
ganized and operated along proper
lines would be welcomd by the ma
tional organization.
The delegation which will visit
the Valley will bring no malice
against the Valley with them de-
spite the fact that circulars have
been widely distributed by bureaus
in the east and middlewest which
were inimicible TO the Valley.
The desire OF the investigating
committee will be TO be fair to
the Valley. Mr.. Barnard explained
in his letter. If convinced that mis-
statements have been made, he said,
they would be perfectly willing to
correct them.
The probability is that the dele
gates will arrive in the Valley
within the next week or ten days.
MI. Barnard declared they well
coined the opportunity TO come
down to the Valley and expressed
the hope that organization OF a
Valley Better Business Bureau
could be accomplished during their
visit.
A full board of directors has been
named by chambers Of commerce in
the various Valley towns. 1t Is
planned to call them together as
soon as possible after the arrival Of
the investigating committee.

Ruthy'S Identification OF Foster
broke with dramatic s~uddenness in
court today as attorneys for Foster
sought TO obtain his release on bail.
The patrolman said he was positive
Foster was the man he chased
through traffic after Lingle had
been Sfatn.
He said he was able TO get a
glimpse OF his quarry as the man
ran q zig Tag course through We
hicles and pedestrians and diSap-
peared.
The patrolman did not say why
the Identification had not been
made previously TO today's hearing.
III Pistols Bought
The pistol with which Lingle was
slain was purchased with IL others
by Foster, then e member OF the
Moran gang Of north side hood
lums.
On the basis OF this information
Foster was arrested In Los Angeles
and indicted for the murder.
Ruthy's Identification came today
rs Fosters attorneys yer before
Judge Daniel Trude with a petition
that Foster be admitted TO bail
pending trial. Murder charges In
Illinois permit holding defendants
without bail unless counsel can
show weakness In the states case.
Coroner Herman NJ. Bundesen,
who preceded the policeman on the
stand said he did not know who
slew Lingle; that he did not know
Foster. nor the number OF the pistol
found az the scene Of the Staying.
Trade Alleged
Assistant states attorneys were
opposing bail for Foster and argued
that to divulge their case In open
court would jeopardtze chances Of
solving the Staying. They offered TO
dtvulge their cas- to Judge Trude
in chambers.
Counsel for Foster contended che
state was keeping their client IN
custody only in an effort TO effect
a trade" whereby Foster would
divulge information the state be-
lieves he has in exchange for his
freedom.
Police while seeking Foster and
even after his arrest have never
charged Foster with the killing
proper. but sought him in an ef-
fort TO trace possession Of the gun
with which the reported was slain.
Another Murder

When quiZzed for further infor-
nation they set forth that many
trucks are operating without licenses,
that they are being loaded beyond
the maximum required by law, and
thus tending to tear up the hard
surfaced roads, which have been
built with the taxpayers money.
Both OF these charges, II true,
are unlawful and all that is needed
is enforcement. Both the trucks

CHURCH FACTIONS
CLASH IN LIVERPOOL
Protestant and Catholic Groups Re.
new Fight in Streets After
Earlier Riots.

ny the Associated Press.
LIVERPOOL, July 2o.-After a night
of ceaseless vigilance, with hundreds of
police patrolling the streets and ambu-
lances parked for emergencies, fighting
between Catholics and ProtestantS in
the Netherfield road area was resumed
yesterday.
The Netherfield road area is strongly
Protestant. The trouble developed Sun
day after an unfounded rumor was
spread that DR.. Richard Downey, Ro-
man Catholic archbishop of Liverpool,
was to visit new presbytery in the
district. Nine persons, including three
policemen, were injured in the rioting
that ensued.
Yesterday the religious partisans
etormed a police court where several
persons arrested for yesterdays dis
tubances were being brought before a
magistrate.
Outside the court building a huge
crowd gathered, divided into two fac
tions, which booed and shouted at each
other when the prisoners appeared.
Several women took the initiative,
jostling the prisoners, screaming and
refusing to be quieted.
Soon the place was in an uproar.
One woman was arrested for aSsaulting
another and later three others were
taken into custody.
Ample police forces prevented to-
days disturbance developing into seri-
Gus r1oting.
