Just a Few Days Later Her Body Was Lying There-Suicide of Hus- band Yesterday Dis- closed He Wanted to Wed Grace Atwood, Wealthy Heiress
 FIVE WEEKS SEARCH
 QUICKLY SOLVED
BY ALLEN MARTIN

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Plymouth, Mass, Sept F - (U.E P.)-Mrs Edith DuBois heard and possibly watched her handsome gem-dealer husband dig the sub cellar grave in which her own body was found q few hours after he solved a five-week mystery by killing himself, letter revealed to-day.
 Not many days before the 40- year-old wife of Charles Edwin Du Bois mysteriously vanished from their Great Herring Pond summer bungalow, she wrote to a friend, q Mrs Gillot of Hastings on the Hud- son.
 The gist of her letter, as quoted by Assistant District Attorney. John V. Sullivan, read:
 Charlie has not been himself for at least six months. He has act- ed like a crazy man on account of that woman. He would go down in- to the cellar and dig and then come up and not say word. He has. been working down in the cellar all of the time."
 The husband she acquired as re- suit of French matrimonial mag azine ad was digging the grave in- to which the assistant district att torney was satisfied he placed the body of his wife, killed that he might re-marry.
 The irony of the situation, how- ever, was that DuBois cheated the law which tried to charge him with murder. but was frustrated by failure to find the body of :. mur- der victim until after the jeweler had slain himself.
 Dubois was in love with Miss Grace Atwood, New York Univer- sity graduate and daughter of a wealthy Massachusetts manufastur- CT. He had planned to marry her she said. A letter she wrote said that "now we can marry because the last obstacle has been remov- ed" And legal papers were found in which property title was trar1s- ferred to Mrs Grace Dubois, short- ly after Mrs Edith Dubois vanish ed.
 Assistant District Attorney Sul- livan held to-day, however, that Miss Atwood was the innocent vic tim of a love affair whose tragic scenes were unsuspected. He exon erated her of any guilty knowledge of the crime.

Every Effort Is Being Made to Get Him on Stump in Idaho to Help Hoover
BY RAYMOND CHAPTER

United Press Staf Correspondent
 Washington, Sept 17.-UP)- Republican party managers are turning longing eyes toward Idaho where Senator William B. Borah is watching and waiting and lis- tening.
 His endorsement of President Hoover would do more than any, thing else that party managers can suggest to rally republican morale from dejection of the Maine election.
 An effort to smoke him out appears to have been started. Af- ter conference at the White House, Senator Hastings, repn, Del, said Senator Borah's declaration against the soldier bonus following the action of the American Legion this week had definitely put him on the republican side.
