story of Melvina HOLSTERS dead

Here's a funny one l picked up
this afternoon" he said. Maybe
you can explain this" He re-
peated what Mrs. Kennebec had
said. Gainey asked questions but
evidently was not much impressed.
1t appeared that, to ]. Randolph

been solved and solved satisfac'

"Oh. you might as we'll. What

line of thought was distinctly sec.
ondary. He returned to Carlotta
Scurlach. You know" he said
Its queer how a girl like that
can marry an egg like Scurlach.
OF course there are plenty OF
brighter people in the world but
she's not so dumb! Darned good
looking, too. She had that little
place where they live all fixed
up"
did you talk to her husband?"
Bannister asked.
yeah, and a lot of good 1t did!
Just a big guy with a head OF
solid bone. Kept saying over and
over that he didn't do it. that he'd
never hurt nobody! Steve Fish
er told me they haven't been able
to get anything else out OF him
except when the girl was there:
They left Scurlach and the girl
alone together but Of course the
detectives were listening. Sour
ZACH broke down and cried and
told Carlotta he was sorry he'd
scared her and he'd never do II
again if only they'd let him go
home. Then she cried too and
told him not to worry. The cops
had to go in and stop 'em for
fear they'd food the place with
tears!" -.

thoughtfully, "it's not 80 pleas

"Out to see Denise Lang -

Five minutes later they had
risen from the table and were on

Report Textile
Code Violations

RALEIGH. July 29.-(UP).-
Reports of numerous violations of
the cotton textile code in North
Carolina were received here yes
terday by Arthur L. Fletcher, state
commissioner of labor.
Commissioner Fletcher said the
chief complaint concerned policy
of employers in classifying skilled
workers as learners" and placing
them under the minimum wage
scale. Several complaints con-
cerned application of the "stretch-
out system"
The labor commissioner warned
employers that the code specifies
that the "existing amounts by
which wages in the higher paid
classes. up to workers receiving
$40 per week, exceed wages in the
lowest paid classes, shall be main
tained."
