BOY CHARGED
WITH DEATHS
Of SISTERS

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 6 U.P) =
Sixteen year old Civerino Paiva,
farm youth who confessed locking
his two little sisters in an icebox
where they died of suffocation, was
to be charged formally with murder
today.
Authorities decided to file the
charge despite doubts of his sanity.
Alienists will examine him later.
Although Civerino insisted he had
placed Mary, 6 and Marian, 7, in
the refrigerator at their own re-
quest, his IL year-old brother,
James, said the older boy locked the
children in to punish them. He did
not like the way they washed the
dishes. Civerino called James a
liar"
The deaths occurred Saturday.
For several days Civerino had been
under constant questioning. He adj
mitted criminally assaulting the
little girls, one on the day Of their
deaths and the other previously.
Two hours after their funeral he
admitted implication in their
deaths. |
"They got into the box them
selves" he said. They asked me to
close the door. After while I
asked them if they wanted to get
out and they said no
Before We left the house I told
them they had better come out. l
said. You might die in there But
they didn't answer
The story told by James differed
in some details.
"Civerino said he'd put them In
the icebox if they didn't behave.
the younger boy said. "rhey said
they didn't care. Civerino put them
in the icebox and left them there
We went back to the fields
The deaths were discovered when
the family returned late that night
The bodies were damned tightly
into the small compartments of the
refrigerator, one in IL by 16-inch
food section and the other in the
even smaller ice compartment
Blood On the ice box walls showed
their efforts to free themselves.
Because of Civerino's alleged ad
mission of intimacies with an ID
year old sister, authorities planned
| to question the entire family.

The battle was brief. The pickets

The wounded were rushed in am

REPORT
SHOWS LITTLE
CHANGE MADE
Continued from page g.

returns from crop production are
being realized.
Deposits of Los Angeles banks
were larger at the end of August
than at any time since 1881. An
abundance of credit is now available
to business and industry at near
the lowest interest rates recorded
in this area. AS in preceding
months, banks are finding it diff
ficult to obtain satisfactory borrow
ers for their funds due to the re
luctance or inability of business men
to increase their activities at this
time.
"On the industrial side, manu-
facturers of consumers goods failed
to expand operations by the amount
usual at this season. with the excep-
ton of the food trades which were
featured by considerable buying in
anticipation of rising prices. The
heavy industries made poor show
ings. steel, cement, building ma.
terial and similar firms experienc-
ing declining volume.
Local department stores made a
favorable record during August, ex-
banding their sales by more than
the usual seasonal amount over
July and exceeding the active
month of August, 1888, by about 2
per cent. Prices of merchandise
have shown little change during re
cent months, the number of de
creases exceeding the increases, &C
cording to trade observers. July re-
ports showed inventories of local de-
partment stores to be 8.5 per cent
larger than in July, 1888. In view
of the advance in prices during the
year and other factors it appears
that stocks are relatively low.
I'm a majority of instances,
suburban and rural communities in
Southern California reported in
creased sales during August as com
pared with both the preceding
month and the corresponding period
a year ago. Sales of farm machinery,
mechanical refrigerators, automo-
biles and the like were particularly
large. Of the IS cities from which
information was obtained only five
registered recessions relative to
August, 1898. Improved agricultural
income is advanced as the explana
ton of most of the gains.
Reports from representative
firms in the field of wholesale trade
indicate that most lines made better
showings in August than in July.
Automobile tires were an exception,
with business remaining relatively
inactive due to price wars in pre-
ceding months. Grocery firms, on
the other hand, experienced an alb
normal increase in sales occasioned
by the accumulation of inventories
on the part of retailers anticipating
rising food prices"

A resolution asking the delegates
attending the American Public
Health association convention in
Pasadena to recommend to the state
relief authorities an SERA project
calling for a full time personnel
to aid III the curbing of commun-
icable diseases in Imperial county

vention urged upon its members
the necessity of aiding this county
in its fight to prevent the spread
of communicable diseases here, a

present water shortage. The coun-
ty health officer felt that with the
backing of the western division, the
association would take favorable

HUGE WAVES

Scientists

LOS ANGELES, Sept. U.P) =
Angry waves that ignored summer
weather and cloudless skies were
pounding a 40-mile strip of beach
front today, wrecking and damaging
piers, undermining cottages, and
menacing shore property valued at
millions.
At Long Beach, where the $780,

under the pounding, lifeguards kept
the beaches clear of bathers while
freak combers 35 and 40 feet high
broke over the dock ends and ran

tended to Newport Beach, 40 miles
south of here. The center today
was in Long Beach, although in re
cent weeks the recurrent storms
have missed it while striking New
port, Santa Monica and Venice.
The Pine Avenue pier, built IN
1903 and used recently as a life
guard station, showed signs Of
breaking up late yesterday. Life
guards worked franticaily to remove
equipment and escaped just as the
wooden structure collapsed along
its entire 150-foot length.
The new horseshoe shaped rain

wharf was able to withstand the
force of the breakers. Rainbow

WASHINGTON, Sept U.P) =
Textile strike leaders dramatically
turned down presidential peace
overtures today, ordering the un-
paralleled labor uprising to continue
until every mill is closed. despite
a swiftly rising toll of dead and
wounded.
No arbitration until every mill is
shut down-was the edict of Francis
j. German, strike leader, as the
south reported 10 dead and 80
wounded in bloody battles in textile
towns.
The strike goes on" said Cor
man as President RooSevelts media
tion board was summoned to meet
tomorrow in Washington.
up to this moment We have seen
no sign of abandonment by manage,
ment of its imperious and arbitrary
character" he said. 1T knows for
one thing that mills do not run
without workers and it knows that
the United Textile Workers are an
organized body of men and women
who have discipline, who have
definite aims and who are de
termined to achieve these aims.
When I say we will not even talk
about arbitration until the mills
are closed 1 mean that we shall
close the mills. We are not looking
to employers to close them. Leave
that to us. The strike goes on"
Germans challenge came as strike
ranks grew. More than 355 900
workers were out today. Each hour
brought fresh reports Of new re-
cruitS.
Many Fatal Clashes
Clashes between hundreds of
strikers and police at mill gates had
left six dead in South Carolina,
three in Georgia and one in North
Carolina.
German proposed that President
Roosevelt ask governors of textile
states to deputize unioniSts. There
would be no violence then, he pre-
dicted
New bloodshed menaces arose in
other sections of the strike belt as
thousands of police and mill guards
with guns and tear gas to repel de-
termined drives of flying squad
rons' of pickets to close every tex
tile plant in the nation.
Troops were modifying in the
Carolinas. Armed deputies were
sworn in to protect mills against
the picket squadrons which were
rushing in automobile cavalcades
from factory to factory along the
Atlantic seaboard to spread the
strike.
Hundreds of strikers were ar
rested in minor clashes. Scores were
injured.
CONCORD, N. H, Sept. UP
The textile strike mediation board

Winant, chairman, announced to-

panied by violence.
