 The next night, Mir and Mrs Robinson went to the brooder house, planning to spend the night. About midnight they were awakened again by the stampeding of turkeys. Mrs Robinson picked up the shotgun and stepped out side. One man was stealing big turkey hen.
 She leveled the gun at him and ordered him to halt. He did. Mrs Robinson turned over the man to her husband, then ran to her au- tomobile with the gun and pursued the mans two companions in the car. At North Kingsville, near here, she lost the trail, but mean while had picked up Marshal Eu- | gene Harlock.

He found the bodies of 1,500 of the great birds, clubbed to death by commercial fisherman, who be- lieved that the birds ate food fish. However, a scientific investigation proved that go per cent of the food consumed by pelicars is useless, surface fish.
 The pelican Is dirty bird. His nests are crude aairs of sticks and roots. They are built in the trees, in bushes and sometimes on tho ground. There usually are three eggs in a nest.
 As the bird grows older, he &C., Quires a fine, soft downy covering, followed by pin feathers. Young pelicans use their bills, wings and funny webbed feet in climbing in the mangrove trees. They are fed in a most peculiar manner. The mother opens wide her great gap ing jaws and the baby pokes his head and bill down her pouch for his meal.

NEW YORK, December 15.-Oficers
dug in the bleak earth today about
the Westchester house where Grace
Budd was slain, seeking to learn if AL
bert H. Fish had any other victims.
One full day of digging turned up
virtually a complete skeleton of the
little girl yesterday, as well as the
stained meat cleaver and saw that
Fish confessed he used to butcher the
10-year old child after kidnapping her
June 3, 1923.
Under the basement floor of the
abandoned house near East 1rvington,
another bone was found which DR..
Amos o. Squires, medical examiner,
first said might have been that Of an
adult. 1t was determined later that
1t was an animals.
Fish, a 65-year- house painter,
sat in seclusion in the Tombs, await
ing his return to Westchester County
to face a murder trial. New York
authorities said he will be surrendered
as soon as a murder indictment is
returned, and the grand jury reas-
sembles Tuesday at White Plains.
Readily admitting the killing of
Grace Budd, Fish insisted nevertheless
that he was not responsible for the
absence of any other children who
have disappeared. But he told police:

of them. You can't do me any more

COTTON GROWERS
VOTE CROP CURB
Landslide Leads to Specu.
Iation Control May Spread
to Other Crops.
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A landslide for compulsory control
of cotton led to speculation today as
to whether the future might see such
curbs extended to some other major
crops.
Growers Of the South voted yester-
day on the question whether to con-
tinue the Bankhead act next year, and
incomplete returns today showed:
Yea, 897,643.
Nay, 81 1,457.
This was proportion Of more than
8 to /. A two-thirds vote was neces-
sary for continuance About 100000
producers were eligible to vote, anu
Secretary Wallace had estimated be-
forehand that about half that num-
Der actually would ballot.
Out of II States voting, the re-
turns showed four-Arizona, Calitor-
mia, New Mexico and Oklahoma-fail-
ing to roll up two-thirds for the act,
which imposes high taxes on cotton
sold in excess of quotas. The national
average is the deciding figure.
Effect Yet to Be Seen.
Observers felt only the future could
tell what effect the vote may have on
other adjustment plans. Secretary
Wallace has not favored compulsory
control for other major crops, though
some other officials expressed the De-
lief economic nationalism abroad
might lead to drastic restraints on
production in this country.
Cotton handlers, exporters and oth-
ers waged vigorous campaign against
the act. The Farm Administration
attempted neutral attitude, but
abandoned it after President Roose-
yelt said he believed the measure was
the best method available to meet the
situation.
Secretary Wallace, who objected to
the act last Spring, said the vote
showed farmers want the legislation
He said efforts toward greater EN-
cheney of administration would be
made.
After official returns are received, a
national allotment, based on the ex-
pected consumption of cotton nex'
year will be set, and quotas Will be
established. This national figure is
expected to be about 100000 bales
Senator Bankhead Of Alabama, CO.
author of the measure, said he was
immensely gratified" over the poll
He said he would seek a national
quota of 100000 bales, same as this
year.
Mississippi Vote Heavy.
Bankhead expressed particular in
terest in the vote of his home State
which Endorsed the measure by l4l ,222
to 1882 on incomplete returns.
Mississippi showed the largest ma
jority in favor-164,824 farmers voting
"yes" to STAB against. Texas, largest
producer of cotton, showed 6S,l3s
votes in favor and 9.278 against, with
only IL of 254 counties reporting.
The vote as compiled from official
sources by the Associated Press at
am. today stood as follows:
