GIRL, Is, IS FOUND
CLUBBED TO DEATH
Child, Missing Since Friday,
Killed in Desperate Struggle.
Ransom Note Is Clue.
By the Associated Press.

MINEOLA, N. Y, February 3.-"You
don't want me to go, do you, mother?"
said Mary Helen O'Connor, is years
old, last Friday as she was about to
leave for an overnight visit with a
friend.
Her mother replied: Don't pay any
attention to my foolish worries, dear"
But last night James O'Connor stood
looking into pile of underbrush near
MaSSapeQua, looking down upon body,
and brokenly he said:
1T is my child-Mary Helen
Evidence Of Struggle.
She had died after a struggle. That
much was clear, for her clothing was
torn and there were bruises on her
body. But it did not appear she had
been attacked criminally. Stains
found on her clothing are being ana
iodine, or some dark liquid hurled at
the girl by sadist slayer.
An autopsy late last night failed to
establish the time of her death. Dis
trict Attorney Elvin Edwards said 1t
was fair inference that she died the
day she left home"
The murder place is real estate de-
velopment, with sidewalks laid but
without residences. A workman found
the body as he was clearing away brush
late yesterday.
The overnight bag she carried when
she left home, and her purse, have not
been found. Her hat, a stocking and
one Of her pumps were 400 yards from
the body.
Ransom Note Received.
One police theory is that the girl
vas taken from an automobile near
Where her body later was found, and
that she fought for q distance of so
feet or more before being clubbed to
death. There is no trace of the weapon
with which she was slain.
A ransom note demanding 81 900 for
the girls safe return was received by
O'Connor last night. A thumbprint,
plainly marked with scar, was found
on it and is being checked with police
dngerprint records.
The girls mother told today Of hay
ing had a dream that indicated her
daughter had met with misfortune.
Il saw her." she said, "she was
calling for help"
There Is one other child in the family.

VXTASHINGTON, Jan. 10
w Suggestions Of Cincinnati
board Of trade that material farm
aid could be extended through
stimulating consumption Of corn
by sale Of gasoline containing 5
per cent of alcohol were branded
as impracticable by Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture R. w.
Dunlap.
Dunlap, who had been requested
to study the Cincinnati proposal
by Senator Robert J. Buckley
Dem, o., informed the senator
that such a fuel would be more
expensive, give less mileage. and
could not be safely used without
changes in engine design.
In a memorandum to the SEN
ator recently D. J. Schulz,
executive secretary Of the Cincin-
natl board of trade. expressed the
view that the use Of grain alcohol
as an automobile fuel would prove
highly beneficial to American
farmers.
Secretary Dunlap, however, de-
clared that study by department
of agriculture chemists showed
no advantages and possibly some
disadvantages would result from
use of the fuel. 1t would add to
the cost, too, he said.
He declared such a fuel would
not deliver additional power and
would reduce mileage per gallon
Of gasoline used.
