But the nearer he got to the apartment, the
surer he became that his luck would hold. It
was the first break he'd had since he and Guido
hijacked that big Detroit shipment. He had

Blue stumbled, dropped his gun, and ran
blindly out into the middle of the street; then
he turned and ran blindly back toward the
house. An iron fence caught him just below

der.
Unless the truth is fOrthcOm-
ing, officials add, arrests will
follow.
Members of the family will be
summoned before Mr.. Collins to-
day for further questioning.
Police say they have been mis-
lead regarding important circum-
stances in the report Of the find
ing of the body.
Friends Are Still Held
Detectives questioned Vernon
Limerick, brother of the slain
girl, at headquarters last night.
Vernon, Richard Reed and viii
liam Paddy are still held by
police.
Martha Bargfrede, on the stand
yesterday testified that Beulah
and her family were not on the
best of terms.
David Limerick, brother Of the
slain girl, often struck his sister,
Mrs. Bargfrede said, on one Occa-
sion knocking her unconscious for
several hours. Beulah feared
David, Martha insisted.
Richard Reed will be questioned
at length as to his relations with
the dead girl.
On the witness stand, it was
testified by members of the
Limerick family that he was "just
like a brother"
Reed Must Clear Position
In view of this, police will ask
him to explain why the Nine
teenth Street house was rented by
"Mr. and Mrs. Richard Reed" and
why the couple went to rent 3
new house together the day be-
fore the murder.
Another search of the death
house gave a short thrill when
the police announced yesterday a
piece of metal was found in the
stove. This find gave rise to a
rumor that murder gun had been
discovered
Examination showed it was
merely an old hinge from a door.
This find c.4me shortly after
Martha Bargfrede had insisted
that Ethel Limerick told her that
a gun had been found in the
stove.

ventions Of the States. They
said:
I'VE respectfully ask the
court, in considering the point
raised in the brief, to seek to
recapture the spirit of the piO-
neerS of our Government and
instead Of looking backward
merely upon decisions of this
and other courts to look for
ward to what the trainers Of
the Constitution contemplated
both in their desire to form D
stable government and in their
fears of what this new super
government might do and in
that connection, to recan that
the Constitution was based upon
the Declaration of Independ-
ence and that the preamble
was ever present in the minds
of those who took part in the

M'CARL DODGES
SHOE RULING

The War Department is max.
ing war today on the Department
of Justice over the price Of prison
made shoes. Under the law, the
War Department is. required to
accept 53,676 pairs of Army shoes
made in prison and quoted to
the military heads by the Justice
Department at $2.73 a pair.
The War Department. however,
is peeved because a st. Louis firm
will provide the shoes at $2.44 a
pair, saving $15,566. 1t was put
up to Comptroller General Nc
Carl.
McCarl is strong for President
Hoover's economy ideas, as previ-
Gus rulings will testify. but he
explains that he has no authority
to decide this dispute and sug-
gests arbitration. The Depart
ment of Justice claims it cannot
make the shoes any cheaper, nor
compete its prison labor with
labor wages outside to give any
better terms.

Washington, which has been
called a great whispering Gal
lery, is spending a good deal OF
time these torrid dog Jays won
dering and speculating as to
whether Col. Henry L. Stimson is
going to remain much longer as
Secretary of State.
1t really started when Colonel
StimSon left Washington in the
midst of the negotiations over the
Hoover moratorium proposal. 1t
was inevitable that gossip should
arise over the fact that a Sec
retary of State should depart
upon q two months vacation
under such circumstances.
. It was assumed on all sides
that If a President ever needed
the counsel and advice of his
foreign menister 1t would have
been at q time when his much
heralded plan to save Germany
appeared to have an excellent
chance Of going on the rocks.
But Colonel Stimson went. in
any event. and much of the diff
ficult work of the negotiations
fell here to UnderSecretary OF
State william R. Castle. and
Undersecretary of the Treasury

ITO efface or rub out all lines
