Why hadn't he seen through 7 After several days that had seemed endless the doctor said the young man might so out. Feeling excited and shaken, Bob climbed into Q taxi and gave the driver Susan's address. The house, when he reaehed 1t, was quite dark. There was no sign of anyone about. Hopelessly, he rang the bell once or twice. Then, failing to raise anyone, he slipped his card with q scrawled messago on 1t into the mall box. Would Susan let hint know when 1t would be convenient for him to come and cali?
 He came the next night, and. the next, and the next, but always dark ness and yilenSe rewarded his effort. He began to be genuinely alarmed. Telephoning the office, he was informed by Miss Smith, the .new secretary, that Miss Carey was not there and would not be any more. Some sickness in the family, she thought. That night Dunbar made another try and when there was no answer rang the bell of the next neighbor. A thin man In car- pet slippers answered the ring.
 "rhey'ro gone away and l don't know when they'll be back" the man said sourly. Since he did not know that Susan came over from the Miltons every day to see tho Are he could not give Bob that ray of hope.
 When Susan arrived the next day accompanied by Mrs Milton, the older woman said idly. Don't you want to look in the letter box, honey?"

FOX AID BARES
S433,6O0 CAIN
IN z MONTHS
Pool Made Huge Profits in
Short Time, Committee
Told by Associate.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, June 1S.-Opera-
tons of pool in Fox Amusement
stocks, which brought a half-mil-
lion dollar profit in less than two
months, were described today before
the senate banking and currency
committee. The committee had ex-
petced to hear William Fox,
pioneer motion picture producer
but fore the third consecutive day
he was excused because of illness.
Bradford Ellsworth of Hartford,
Conn, testified he was associated
with Fox in a small" pool which
operated from Aug. 81 to Oct. 7,
1923, and said the profits were S433,-
3O8.
Another pool, which included Fox,
John Raskob, Walter P. Chrysler
and Nicholas F. Brady, was short
366,3l0 shares of Fox stock on Jan.
z, 1928, Ellsworth said. He denied
this was an Objectionable short op-
Grafton because it was not done to
depress the market"
Fox drew his profits from the
popol in a check for 1922, 900, which
was made out to "P. j. Higgins" and
later Endorsed by Fox, Higgins. an
employe Of Meehan &c Co., testified.
The check was drawn in this form
to conceal from the clerical force"
the identity of the men interested
in the pool, Higgins said.
Walter Best, another employe,
described the borrowing Of $4,000
shares of Fox Theater stock by the
pool from Jack G. Leo, Fox
brother-in-law, and an official in
the Fox enterprises.
George K. Watson, the COM
mittee's accountant, traced the
complicated course by which 125 1000
shares of Fox Theaters was issued
to Leo and subsequently found its
way to Meehan & Co.
While with Meehan the stock
was carried in the "stock borrowed
account which he described as a
short" account. The price sold
down more than seven points be-
fore the loan was repaid, the wit
ness said.
The pool at one time was 100000
shares short, 10000 shares of which
came from options and the remain
der of which was bought on the
open market, Watson said. AL
though the open market purchases
tended to bring down the total
profit, the net gain to the pool
after commissions and fees was
more than $1,90O,OOOO, the witness
claimed,

DUTY SUMMONS
FREES SURGEON
IN DEATH QUIZ
Harassed Doctor Is Sent
From Jail to Save
Dying Woman.
By United Press

~ GntIfN GfeSS
DENVER, Colo, June IS. - A
summons to duty today interrupted
the questioning of DR.. Guy w.
Townsend. surgeon, in connection
with the death of an army nurse.
Harassed and worn after a night
long inquisition, DR.. Townsend was
sent from the city Jail to save the
life of a dying woman by an oper-
alton which consultants felt re-
quired his skill.
The demand upon the handsome
surgeons training compelled po-
lice to suspend their inquiry into
the death of Miss Alice Fought, a
nurse at Fitzsimmons General hos
pital.
The narrowing Questioning, the
discomforts of Jail, and the wide
spread publicity which came to the
surgeon as a result of the girls
death, left him .unnerved and
shaken.
The call came from Physicians
and Surgeons hospital.
Accompanied by Stanley MauS,
investigator, the physician was
taken to his luxurious home, where
he bathed, shaved, rested and
breakfasted.
They went to the hospital. All
was in readiness. The woman was
in the operating room.
While Maus waited in an ante
room, the doctor donned his white
gown and started on the two-hour
operation.
Maus was amazed at the way the
harried surgeon pulled himself to-
gether and girded for the strain Of
the operation.
Meantime, friends, patients and
fellow physicians rallied to DR..
Townsend's defense. They raised
bond to obtain his release when he
is arraigned on a cond-degree
murder information.
Investigators were convinced that
the surgeon performed an illegal
operation on the nurse, Miss Fought,
in an attempt to save her life, after
she previously had undergone a
similar operation which was bun
gled.
Therefore, official activity was
directed toward finding the physi-
clan who performed the first oper-
alton. DR.. Townsend was unable
to help in the search.

Joy and Gloom
Chicago Kids Happy With
Freedom; Teachers
Broke, Hungry.

CHICAGO, June 18.-The sum-
~ mer vacation began today for
100000 CHEEKY youngsters of Chi
cago's public schools, but to $4,000
unpaid school teachers it meant
twelve black weeks to be faced
with empty purses and barren
larders.
So serious did the plight of
the teachers appear that an
emergency committee of civic
leaders and officials was formed
to visit Washington Tuesday in
an effort to obtain federal aid.
Mayor Anton J. Cermak formed
the mission at a night confer
ence of officials and Chicago
bankers, held a few hours after
500 teachers had stormed the
mayors Office demanding action.
Approximately six months pay
is due the teachers.
Bankers headed by Melvin A.
Traylor, Democratic dark-horse
presidential candidate and presi-
dent of the First National bank,
informed the mayor the city could
expect little more in the way of
loans until citizens start to pay
taxes in some volume.
The emergency committee ap-
pointed by Cermak included both
of Illinois senators and the states
congressional delegation. 1t will
ask that congress revise the stat
utes of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation to allow that agency
to loan money directly to the i'm
poverished Chicago governments.
Traylor made clear that the
banks will not borrow funds from
the corporation and reloan the
money to the city.
