WALLACE SEES
FOOD PRICE UP
"DIzZY'' DEAN
By International News Service

by International News Service
Retail food prices are likely to
be 10 or IS per cent above the
first half of 1894, Secretary OF
Agriculture Wallace warned in
his book, ''New Frontiers" pub
lshed today.
Pleading that the processing
taxes on bread and meat, now in
effect, are. "the farmers tariff,
Secretary Wallace frankly re-
vealed just what these taxes are
costing each family.
Women Were Wary
Admitting that flood taxes are
hated worse than Others" Secre'
tary wallace said:
''When we put a tax Of 30
cents a buShel on wheat in
July, 1888, it was the same as
putting q tax of One-half cent
ON every loaf of bread. or
course, this isn't so much, but
even though it means only
about So per family q year,
plus another So for the tax on
flour otherwise used, the women
who do the buying became a
little uneasy"
According to Secretary Wal
lace'S book, here is what the food
taxes cost per family per year;
Pork products, around 81; pro
ceSSing taxes on cotton and to
bacco run the total contribution
Of each family to about $40 pei
year.
Not Optimistic
Not only that, Secretary Wal
lace wrote, but:
1.-THE reduced output after q
year or two will raise the prices
still further, and it will be very
easy to arouse a great Outcry in
the cities Of the United States
against the processing tax"
Revealing that he is willing to
drop these taxes in 1886, "if we
have something better" to replace
them, Secretary Wallace indicated
that he did not believe this could
be done. =

Neville Observation-Disclosures
Nation Will Build Up All
National Protection
BY HARRY X. REYNOLDS

BRISTOL, England, Oct.
U.N.S0, - Virtually abandoning
hope for world disarmament under
present conditions, Great Britain
has decided to build up her ma
tional defenses and has formu
lated detailed plans toward thai
end.
This was the message delivered
by Chancellor of the Exchequel
Neville Chamberlain to the an
nual Conservative party confer
ence here, a declaration greeted
by rousing cheers. He said:
Nobody can say that Britain
has not given the lead in dis
armament.
EMPIRE FULLY SURVEYED
1--WE have been patient and
we have done our best to get
other countries to follow.
"But until there can be re-
moved the feeling Of fear and
anxiety among other great
armed nations, there il not
much hope Of getting any seri-
Gus amount of disarmament.
Therefore the Government
has decided it would be in
compatible with its duty to
Britain to leave our defenses
in the condition they are to-
day.
"The Government, fully alive
to the dangers Of the Situa-
ton, has already made . pre-
liminary Investigation Of the
state of the defenSes of the
whole empire and spent many
many months in examining the
whole situation and fOrmulat-
ing adequate plans"
For his highly significant
announcement, which bids fair tt
alter the European arms picture
in a radical manner and promise:
that Britain will not be left be
hind if an actual armament race
begins, Mr.. Chamberlain chose
one of the proudest and oldest
cities in Albion.
Ex-Governor Speaks
From the port of Bristol, great
ships have sailed to the sever
seas since the days Of square
riggers and wooden men-of-war
and no port is more deeply con
cerned with preservation Of
Britain's sea supremacy than this
one.
The chancellor's declaration
came following an address BY
Lord Lloyd, former governor Of
Bombay and a veteran diplomat
who introduced a resolution re
cording grave anxiety over "the
ipadequacy of provisions made
for imperial defense" He said;

NEW YORK Oct. 4 UNS).
A New Jersey road map, showing
the region in the vicinity of the
former Lindbergh home at Hope
well, was. found in a trunk belong
ing to Bruno Richard Hauptmann.
it was disclosed today by District
Attorney Samuel J. Foley Of the
Bronx
Hauptmann when questioned
about the roads and towns near
Hopewell described them with
remarkable accuracy, according to
Mr.. Foley.
An English German dictionary
was also found in Hauptmann's
effects. The district attorney said
he thought Hauptmann made use
of this dictionary in penning the
ransom notes.
Knew Roads Well
The authorities, in questioning
the Lindbergh case suspect last
week, laid the New Jersey map
before him and asked him how
one would go from one town to
another in the vicinity Of Hope.

ing to within three miles Of
Hopewell.
Hauptmann readily discussed
the roads in that vicinity, Foley
asserted. Foley said:
"He reproduced sections of
this territory from memory
with remarkable accuracy down
to the smallest intersecting
road"
Hauptmann was induced to de-
scribe various roads up to q
point within three miles of the
Lindbergh home, Foley announced.
Hauptmann told which roads
were paved, which were dirt. At
the time he wasn't quite his
cautious self and he got talking
about those roads to a point
within three miles of the Lind
bergh home.
They were asking him about a
hill three miles from the Lind
bergh home when he suddenly
stopped and refused to answer
any further questions about roads.
Up to that point he had been
talking more or less of his own
free will.
Found in a Trunk
What he told the authorities
indicated, in the opinion Of Foley,
that he knew the region Of the
Lindbergh home quite well.
In Hauptman's effects also were
found maps of Massachusetts, and
adjacent territory. In this con.
nection. the authorities recalled

Enthusiasm Is Chilled
The terrific and humiliating

At ii o'clock yesterday the con

Charles Stellmach, daring and

loved beautiful women, was the
victim.
Stellmach h m self was the
plotter and killer, was the con-

traced the strange pattern of cir

His body, with a gaping bullet
wound, was washed UP on the
shore at Malibu Beach, home of
many movie stars.
Stellmach'S motive, officers
said, was to insure payment of a
life insurance policy which con-
tanned an anti-suicide clause. In
event Of accidental death the
