ASKED To JOIN
RESOURCES
Hoover Emergency Unit Is
For Coordination of All
Activities; Great Need Seen

A call for mobilization of all
available resources to meet pow
erty and suffering during the
coming winter was issued today
by the Presidents emergency
committee for employment.
Officials expressed the belief
that an even greater outlay Of
funds by local and other govern
mental bodies-and by direct con-
tributions-win be necessary than
during the past winter.
Fred C. Croxton, acting chair
man of the committee, said that
the cooperation of number of
large organizations had been Sc
cured. He described the relief
movement as ''co-ordinated local
effort of national scope" He
said:
"If it develops that with
local resources organized, there
are less favored localities which
will require outside aid, a way
must be found to relieve
human distress in such COM
mOdities and this will no doubt
require assistance from more
fortunate localities.
"The extent of these areas
and the size of the problem
can be more accurately deter
mined if organization of local
resources goes forward rapidly"

NEW FAITHFUL
CLUE ENTERS
PROBE
Woman Found Who Knew
and Saw Starr June 5, the
Day She Disappeared in N. Y.

NEW YORK, June 20 GN.SO.
Investigation of the last actions
of Starr Faithful crept 80 min
utes closer to her death today
through the location of wo-
man friend who saw Starr in
Grand Central Terminal at 2:30
on the afternoon of June s.
tl4e day she disappeared.
Miss Loretta Fitzpatrick was
found in an apartment in East
Ninety-sixth Street.
Nassau county detectives were
Immediately sent to question her.
Frustrated Love
Miss Fitzpatrick met Starr
first on board the Cunard liner
California in 1927 or 1923 on a
cruise to the West Indies. T:ley
became friends. Starr confided
to her a tale of frustrated love
for Howard Miller, one of the
ships officers. Miller's marriage
was a barrier to the love that
stirred the heart of the nedrotic
Starr.
The friendship between the
two women gradually lapSed be-
cause their paths seldom crossed.
Suddenly, on STAIRS last day
of life, an hour and a half after
she had left a beauty parlor in
the Grand Central Terminal,
their paths suddenly crossed
again. The women met in the
station. Starr had left her home
at $50 o'clock that morning,
never again to be seen alive by
her family.
Heard a Scream
Meanwhile the testimony of
Mrs. Anita Valentine, a neighbOr
of the FaithfuIIs in Greenwich
Village, promised to prove an i'm
pOrtant clue in the mystery. Mrs.
Valentine revealed that shortly
before noon on June 5, when Starr
disappeared, she heard a WOman'S
anguiShed cry:
stop that, stop that"
1t came from the Faithful
apartment, across a narrow area
way from her own.
Members of the Faithful fam
lily have perSistently maintained
that Starr left home that morning
at $50 o'clock, and that no un-
toward event broke the quiet
routine Of the home that day.
