CLARKSBURG, w. Va. Sept. 2
-tP-A death code" by which
Harry r. Powers recorded the pro-
gress OF his correspondence with
women throughout the country was
discovered today by detectives in
v~estigating remifications OF the
killings OF two women and three
children.
Letters and postcards he received
In response to his lure OF wealth
and affection were found to be
marked. apparently for filing. A
fragment OF an envelope gave an
apparent key to one Of the mark
ings. The mark vas "P-i5." 1t bore
the notation Graveyard" such a
marking was found on letters from
the two women he confessed he
killed, Mrs. D. p Lempke OF Wor-
cester, Mass, and Mrs. Asia Eicher,
Chicago, whose three children also
were slain.
Marked for Death
City Detective Carl Southern
said he believed "P-l5" indicated
those correspondents Powers had
marked for death.
Information that Powers had
been seen with Stamatifos Sfikas,
"A. Clarksburg shoe shine parlor
owner. shortly before Sfikas dis
appeared in June. speeded inves-
tigation OF that affair. just as dis
covery OF a trunk, containing sew
eral firearms and so photographs
OF women, gave further impetus to
search for other possible victims Of
the 42-year-old former salesman.
Tn quest spread to Miller. s. D.,
Vananlia, IL, and Mansfield. o.,
where he was believed to have lived
as Joseph Gildeau" about the year
Of 1924.
CommercialIsm reappeared with
the erection OF a high board fence
about the garage where Powers. he
admitted. killed the five victims.
Efforts TO charge admission TO
S.ghtseers were blocked by county
officers yesterday. Today the coun-
ty prosecutor said he knew OF
nothing that could be done to stop
the practice.
Digging Halls
Digging at the scene was halted
pending discovery OF further clues
to possible missing among Powers
correspondents.
Meanwhile, the bodies OF Mrs.
Eicher and her children, Harry,
Great and Anabel. were being taken
to Park Ridge, Ill, thet- home.

INCOME TAX
RATE BOOST
!. CONSIDERED

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2.-R-
The day Of reckoning on how to
balance next years budget OF the
government will await further
study Of business conditions by the
administration.
Confident that the next few
months would show I recovery and
= consequent increase In income
tax receipts. Pres. Hoover Is with
holding decision whether to recon-
mend an increase In taxes or to
resort again to q bond issue to
meet another prospective deficit.
Big Deficit Looms
30 far there is every indication
that the next fiscal year will show
q difference OF about 81 .000. 000. 600
between government expenditures
and receipts.
Mr.. Hoover has been advised BY
congressional leaders that a recon-
mendation for a tax increase would
mean q bitter contest over the
vital issue OF how to raise new
revenue. In view OF this. republican
leaders are hopeful that the treas
ury will see its way clear to tide
over the depression by arDther
series Of bond issues similar to
those OF this v,
Sec. Mellon whose word will 20
q long way in the final decision,
already has suggested that the
American taxation system be put
on a broader base. intimating that
he favored new excise taxes similar
to those OF the war period, u as
sur the nation a more even flow
Of revenue.
Study Outlook
While MI. Mellon Is joining the
president In withholding a recon-
mendation pending further study
Of the business outlook, republican
independents have gone on record
for a tax increase.
However, the republican indie
penoentS would raise the ADDITIONAL
revenue by increasing the rates on
higher incomes; re oring a gift
tax; and boosting the estate tax
levies.
This program does not coincide
with that in mind by Secretary
Mellon. Therefore, the congressional
leaders see every prospect Of a long
drawn out fight should Mr.. Hoover
recommend the tax increase.
1t so happens that both republi-
cans and democrats among the
congressional leadership are advo-
eating a resort again next year to
the issuance of either bond issues
or short term securities TO meet
the deficit. They have pointed out
TO the administration that in this
yea Of depression the government
is able TO get any amount OF money
1t needs at low rates of interest.
Congressional leaders also have
In mind that next year is campaign
year and voting for an increase in
taxation IN such times is looked
at twice.
