 Hathaway remained in the car at the death scene, and said he was going to beat it.. when Calvin asked him what he was going to do, the witness related.
 As Calvin urged "Pinky" to assist him in putting Verna's body into car to take it to Fall River, Hatha- way started backing machine out of the lane, and Calvin was forced to hop on running board to avoid be- ing abandoned in Tiyerton, he said.

sequently, Faithful learned that the girl had invented a story about a romance with a boy as the cause of her troubles, but the real reason, according to them, was never dis closed by her to the sanitarium chief.
 The Faithfulls were advised to give the girl change of scene. Thereupon she and Tucker were sent on 8 Mediterranean cruise af- ter seeing that the tour was prop erly chaperoned. On the tour aboard the Tuscania, the girl again showed some strange traits and her sister Tucker commented that she was "so queer" particularly as re- Sards to making friendships with men.
 When the girls returned, and the family moved to West Orange, N. J., Starr seemed to show some im- provement, but spells of depression and introspection caused the Faith fulls to try several means of re- storing her to normal outlook on life. Dancing school, dramatic school and music were tried out, but the girl could not concentrate and gradually dropped the subjects.
 She talked much of religion and philosophy and of the abstract rather than the real.
 She was stimulated by thoughts of another cruise.
 But few days prior to the start of this cruise on the steamer Cal ifornia, there occurred an incident in a local hotel which was the cul- imitation of the whole strange affair apparently and led to her statement of relations with the man in ques- tion, according to the Faithfulls.

UNEMP LOYMENT
GAINS IN ITALY
Anti Fascist Activities Felt as
Economic Depression Troubles
Land of II Duce.

ROME (P).-The Fascist regime, like
many another national administration,
Is feeling the reactions of the business
depression, with accompanying unem-
ployment and political unrest.
There have been a number of recent
instances of Communist and anti-FaS-
cist activity Attempts of the govern
ment to improve economic conditions by
scaling down costs have not Stifled all
the undercover mumblings.
Unemployment, government figures
show is on the increase. Many key in
dustries are operating on part time;
others have announced Winter shut
downs
To combat this situation, Mussolini's
government started a rigorous campaign
for wage and price reductions. It set
the example by reducing the salaries of
government employees an average Of 1914
per cent.
The pay cuts have spread through all
phases of italian industry. But rents
and prices of manufactured articles have
followed the downward trend somewhat
slowly. The average reduction in them
has been about 10 per cent.
Business interests are reaching out
Tor markets in other countries and are
getting every possible aid from the gov
eminent. The outstanding ACCOMPLISH
ment in this respect was the commercial
accord with Russia, by which the Soviets
agreed to buy S1O000,000 worth of Ital-
ian goods within the year ending June
3d. 1881.
While it was not so nominated in the
bond, there has been a natural recipro-
cal purchase of coal, oil, timber and
ores from Russia, and industrialists see
in this trade source of low-cost raw
material that will help Italy to get in
creasingly larger slices Of foreign
markets
The line Of this vision takes in South
America, and it also sees opportunities
In the Balkans and Near East.
