81 REAL, SAYS
VET TAP5TER

Legalized beer will start elimi-
mating the bootlegger in the
opinion of Samuel D. Minister,
for IS years owner Of one of
Washington's most famous whole
sale liquor houses.
And the 3.2 beer will be just
as good as the brews of other
days, Minister holds. But he still
hopes that beer is just the start,
and that the Eighteenth Amend
ment will be repealed.
Under prohibition he finds
that drinking has increased
rather than decreased. Compar.
ing the present day with those
gone by he said:
Before the dry law the
number of saloons was regu-
lated, and the owners saw to
it that the local ordiances were
enforced. No women and no
minors we're admitted, and the
opening and closing hours were
strictly observed.
But now the Spe3keaSy lets
anyone in who has the price,
and as a result those who
never drank before drink now"
Minister'S liquor store, located
at the southwest corner of
18th st. and Pennsylvania Ave.

ESTATEOF HALF
MILLION SEEN
INVOLVED
Private Agents, Unearthing '98
Tragedy Facts, Say Victim
Was WaShingtonian

Solution Of a murder which
baffled Virginia authorities 36
years ago may affect distribution
OF an estate valued at around
$500, 900, it was revealed today.
Investigation Of the ancient
crime was started recently when
q New York lawyer, searching the
. title to some Washington property,
uncovered some vital evidence
relating to the Staying.
This resulted in the case being
placed in the hands of the w. E.
Maloney Detective Agency here
and operatives Of that orgarl'
cation have been searching for
evidence in the killing for several
weeks, with a result that they
believe they have detected the
killer who has eluded justice for
more than third Of a century.
Victim d. c. Man?
The slain man, discovered on
North Mountain, 20 miles from
Winchester in October, 1897, was
then TENTATIVELY identified as IF.
. Carter of Minnesota" who had
registered a year before at a
strasburg hotel and disappeared.
Now detectives say this was
not the mans name. They have
information, they say, that he
was a wealthy Washington man
who had gone to Virginia on
o secret mission.
The motive for the killing has
never been revealed. One theory
advanced is that the man was
killed by a moonshiner who mis-
took him for q revenue agent.
The dead man had been rid
died with buckshot and his body
hidden beneath pile of brush
on the lonely mountainside. Rob-
berry was not the motive, as near
the body was found a mans
wallet with SIT, a gold watch
and gold cuff links. A revolver.
fully loaded, also was found be.
side the body.
Claim Killer Clue
Detectives believe they have
located the killer, and say that
he lives only a short distance
from where the body was found.
Further mystery was injected
In the case when two women
went to Strasburg from Washing
ton and asked to see the articles
found by the body and the hotel
register with the name of Carter.
When they saw the watch they
exchanged significant glances and
left the place without revealing
their identity. One of these
women is still in Washington, the
detectives believe.

THREE MEMBERS Of
MINNESOTA FAMILY
ARE DEAD IN HOME
Threats of Man and Wife Had
Been Cut, Son Shot With
Small Caliber Bullet

Monticello, Mimi, July 6.-(P-
Three members of farm family liv-
ing six miles west of here were found
dead in their home Wednesday night.
The bodies Of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter An
derson, were found in their bedroom
upstairs.
Their Threats had been cut and by
their side lay a newly sharpened
double bitted ak. In a room down
stairs was found the body Of their son,
George, IS. He had been shot with
a small calibre bullet. BY his side
was lying q ~ rifle, a razor and q
knife. A bullet had been fired from
the gun.
Members OF the family were last
seen about the house Friday evening.
A coroner's inquest was to be held
Thursday to establish responsibility
for the crime.
The bodies were discovered by Char
ley Abrahamson, a neighbor living
about a half mile from the Anderson
farm, who was attracted by the low
ing Of the cattle, which apparently
had not been watered for several days.
He entered the house and found the
bodies Of Mr.. and Mrs. Anderson in
bed and that of the son In q down.
stairs room.
Authorities said several notes were
found about the house, apparently
written by the son. Some Of the

PLAN TO HURRY UP
SLOW INDUSTRIES
Administration Would Have
Wage Increases Under way
Within so Days

Washington, July e.-(F-The ad-
ministration Is contemplating steps
to hurry up industries which officials
say have been disappointingly slow
in shaping trade agreements under
the national recovery law.
The situation was UP for analysis
and decision at a session Thursday be-
tween President Roosevelt, Hugh s.
Johnson, the recovery administrator
and Secretary Roper, chairman OF
the cabinet advisory committee on
industry.
At the rate industries are moving.
officials regard it as likely wage in
creases cannot become effective on
big scale before the end Of summer,
whereas the administration objective
is to have the entire program well in
operation within 60 days. Further
more, it was definitely understood
Johnson and Roper had information
to lay before the president showing
that while many industries are de-
batting what to do, individual fac.
tories have jumped in to take adj
vantage of the expected advance in
prices, by running full tilt at present
low wage levels, piling up cheap
stocks with the intention of making
a big profit on them later.
Should this policy continue, adj
ministration men see danger that
cverrroduction again might break
down the painfully built Upward
movement.

DOUGLAS DEMANDS
BALANCED BUDGETS
BY VARIOUS STATES
Urges They Get No Public Work
Funds Unless in Position
to Pay

Washington, July s. - R - Lewis
Douglas, director of the budget, pro-
posed Thursday that states be re-
quired to balance their budgets before
the federal government permits them
to participate In the $4,000, o00, 900
public works program.
The budget director, in fact, was
proposing a cautious program all
along on the public works campaign.
To President Roosevelt he suggested
elimination Of many Of the projects
submitted to the white house for i'm
mediate construction.
Disturbed by prospect Of huge In
crease in Indebtedness through the
public works program, Douglas is
urging that only projects which are
absolutely sound and useful be under
taken.
The law gives the president power
to withhold ALLEGATIONS Of funds to
states II their budgets are not bal
anced, and Douglas let it be known
he wants this strictly enforced.
Roosevelt, who also has laid down a
strict rule that the projects be neces-
sary and sound, Is culling over the
list submitted to him by the special
public works board and 1t appears
likely to be trimmed considerably.
Announcement Of projects to be un-
dertaken Immediately Is expected when
the president concludes his study.
