It was hoped that scrutiny Of

would reveal some evidence upon
which further search for the un-
known slayer might be founded.
Human Flesh Only Clue
Her bruised and battered body,
found about 1926 night before

paratory to funeral services and
burial, yielded the most significant
clue so far discovered.
The. evidence consisted of tiny

CAPPER To PUSH
D. c. VOTE WAR;

Expressing regret that his pro-
posal to give citizens of the
National Capital q vote in ma
tional elections had not been
given consideration in Congress
this session, Senator Arthur Cap
per (R) Of Kansas, in a speech
on the Senate floor late yester-
day, warned that he will make
a determined fight to have the
measure approved next session.
The Kansan, who is ranking
minority member on the Senate
District Committee, pointed out
that there is a potential voting
strength in the District of over
250,000, and added that Wash
ington taxpayers pay as much as
the people of each of Is States
and the total population of 10
States.
Senator Capper's proposal is a
joint resolution, and would have
to receive the favorable vote of
two-thirds of each House of Con-
greSS, as we'll as be ratified by
three-fourths Of the States, since
it is a proposed amendment to
the Constitution.

If signed by a total of 145 mem
bers next week, the petition will
automatically force a vote on the
Mcleod bill on the floor of the
House June II.
The Mcleod bill differs from
the Steagall bank bill now await
ing HouSe-Senate conference
agreement by making 100 per cent

upon the RFC. The Steagau bill
leaves the entire program to the
discretion Of FDIC officials.
Benefits Told
Enactment Of the Steagall bill
will entail no loss to taxpayers,
Representative Prentiss M. Brown
CD of Michigan, co-author of
the measure, assured the nation
today.
Explaining why he believed the
bill is financially sound, he said:
1.-THE foundation of our meas
ure is solid. There is no gift
20 anyone.
'There is merely liberal as
sistance, only slightly beyond
the usual conservatism of bank
ers in lOaning money, and the
bill is based on the principle
that the Government shall re-
Ceive full value for all ad-
vances to closed banks.
TT follows that this Gov
eminent permitted many insti-
tutionS to be represented as
having security values above
the actual strict market value.
II an individual had SO done,
he certainly could be held
legally responsible, and I don't
believe it can be denied that
this policy has imposed a moral
obligation on the Government"
Amendment Fails
The Mcleod bloc at first was
jubilant at introduction of the
Steagall measure, since it was a
compromise bill put forward by
Administration leaders in response
to growing demand for action on
the Mcleod proposal.

100000 stamps are on hand, with

Chatham H. Towers, Collector Of
Taxes, who will be in charge Of
the stamp distribution.
Mr.. Towers expects to start
the stamp sale Monday or Tues
day, and plans to keep open for
business until midnight Of May
81, as liquor without a District
revenue stamp will be illegal on
June /. New cages are being pre-
pared from which District en-
ployes will handle the rush Of
liquor dealers.
Dealers are expected to buy
enough stamps to cover their en-
tire stock at present; and the
Board is hopeful that some Of the
larger dealers will make large pur-
chases of stamps so as to swell
the revenue and clear the way for
the inevitable rush of smaller
men who will be buying small

G.N.S0.-Orders to take the Of
fensive instead of the defensive
were issued by Brig. Gen. L. S.
Connolly to the Ohio National
Guardsmen here today in a de-
termined effort to stamp out the
bloody Sstrike riots at the Electric
Auto-Lite Company plant.
General Connolly ordered the
troops to attack any crowds loiter-
ing in the vicinity of the plant
and to keep them dispersed.
The change in military tactics
came as Federal mediators were
working intensively in an effort
to consummate a satisfactory
peace plan for submission to
union leaders and officiels of
the Strike-torn Auto-Lite plant.
Dynamite Under Guard
simultaneously with the launch
ing Of the offensive plan of action
to quell further riot disturbances,
General Connolly ordered special
guards posted over the dynamite
supplies of five Toledo quarry
companies.
Earlier this morning, authori.
ties placed under arrest a man
who gave his name as Thomas
Meyer, 26. He was booked at po-
lice headquarters on a charge Of
arson following his arrest in the
vicinity of the Auto-Lite plant.
Reports had been circulated that
a plot was in the wind to set off
a series of incendiary fires at the
strike scene.
Radicals Sound SOS
It was reported that the radi-
cal element Of the strike had ap-
pealed to nearby cities to send all
available men into Toledo to aid
in the r1oting.
In one clash early today, Lieut..
Vern Salibaugh, of Lima, was
struck in the thigh by a bullet,
and Payton Cass, Al, was struck
in the face with tear gas bomb.
Lieutenant Salibaugh's wound
was not believed serious, but the
bomb almost tore away Mr.. Cass'
lower jaw.

MARKET BILL
IS VICTORY
:FORGLASS
Compromise by Conferees to
Retain Commission Plan
Urged by Senator
By International News Service

Dy ANo"B SCA NACO
Compromise will shortly end the
long stock market battle, Senator
Fletcher (D.) of Florida, Senate
Banking Committee chairman,
predicted today.
Conferees of the Senate and
House have agreed to settle their
differences in such a manner that
there will be no battles on the
floors when the conference report
is submitted, Senator Fletcher
said.
The basis for the compromise
was reliably reported to be as
follows:
Acceptance of the Senate
proposal of a separate COM
mission of five members to be
appointed by the President as
the stock market regulatory
body instead of the House pro-
vision for control by the Fed
eral Trade Commission.
Endorsement of the fixed
margin provision Of the House
bill.
The purported decision is a
victory for Senator Carter Glass,
Democratic veteran, who resigned
from the Senate Banking Com
mittee because he was not named
q conferee. Senator Glass first
advanced the independent COM
mission idea. -
