CLUE FOUND IN
 PHANTOM MURDER
tcontinued from Page 1.)

(Continued from Page 1.) night of Septen. Der IA. The weapon used was described by experts as "a .12-gauge shotgun, and police said the barrel found yesterday was from a .12-gauge gun. They were confident it was the barrel through which slugs were fired at the head master.
 Discovery of the barrel by Paul Chamberlain, 30, watchman of the Northfield hotel, offered detectives their first tangible clue since they began work. The barrel was leaning against tree at 45-de- gree angle in a deep gully just off the campus.
 He Passed It By
 The gully is at the junction of the Northfield Barnardston and Gill highways. Chamberlain had espied the barrel while passing several days ago but not until yes- terday did he realize what it was. Police said there were indications that the barrel might have been planted" there recently by the killer.
 Captain Van Amburgh, after cursory examination, said the bar rel was from single-barrel shot gun. The usual barrel on such a gun is 26 to 30 inches long. This barrell, however, is 32 inches long, indicating, he said, that it was de- signed for long game shooting. such as fox hunting. Wads from shotgun shells found at the murder scene are of the type used in such a barrel, he pointed out.
 Fingerprints Hopeless
 Because the barrel had been ex- posed to the elements, perhaps for a long time, authorities held little hope that fingerprints would be found on it. To preserve any that might be there, however, the bar rel was wrapped in burfap when 1t was transferred to Captain Van Amburgh's office. The barrel bore the trademark Leader. Police believed this might aid in tracing it's owner.
 Captain John F. Stokes of the state police regarded the barrel as a clue of great importance.
 Thus far no motive for the crime has been established. But investi . gators have leaned toward theory that it was inspired by jealousy over young Rev Speer's swift climn to leadership at Mount Hermon, and by the liberal policies which he instituted in this old and con- servative school.

TURKEY PACKERS
 MUST BE SPEEDY
Experts Required to Strip Bird in Two or Three
 Minutes
By WINSTON COPELAND

.. AAI WI AN0AkAN AAfL A1A@6AANV United Press Staff Correspondent
 Fort Worth, Tex, - (UP)-- It may take your Aunt Amanda all morning to pick her Thanksgiv- ing Day turkey, but a professional turkey picker does the job in two to five minutes.
 Nor will there be any. pirl- feathers left. Turkey picking is a systematic procedure. As soon as the picker finishes with the bird 1t goes to a finisher who completes the work,
 It is two weeks before houses wives wil start thinking about this principal item of the Thanks. giving dinner. But it takes long time to pick 2,80O,0OO turkeys, even at two minutes each, so that next week Texans will start pre- pairing their annual crop for east ern cities.
 Texas is the largest turkey pro- ducing state. Its annual average shipment is 1,6OO cars, each car containing about 1,75O birdss
 In Fort Worth alone more than 500 people will busy themselves in a dozen plants in this prelude to Thanksgiving. Turkey picking is an art and a good turkey picker can make from $5 to $6 a day, de- pending 0 n11is dexterity.
 The trained picker takes the bird by the foot and with the stroke of the hand removes the feathers from the leg. He shifts hands and strips the other leg, a half-dozen jerks along the breast and back and he passes the turkey to the finisher.
 Dealers here forsee a small in- crease in price, but are no opti- mistic that the increase will be very much over last years figures. Missouri, California and the North west have godo tif'key crops which will hold the price around last years range, dealers believe.

Navy Dispute

uary session, as Jugoslavia wants. Navy Dispute London, Nov British and American naval delegates have agreed that security, and not equal | ity of navies, must be the basis of any naval limitation treaty, it was understood today.
 This would mean that Great Britain had agreed with the United States contention that Japan, lack ing far-flung possessions, does not | need, for security from attack a | navy as large as those of Britain and America.
 Norman H. Davis, chief Ameri- can delegate, and Ray Atherton, counselor of the embassy, talked for two hours with Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald and Sir John Simon, foreign minister.
 It was denied that they intended to present any united front against Japan but it meant that, separately if not formally in unit, they would oppose the firm Japanese demand for absolute naval equality. It was understood that the con- ferees decided the negotiations must go on despite the absence of effective agreement.
 After the meeting Davis went golfing with Admiral William H. Standley, chief of naval operations and principal American technical delegates, and outlined the discus sion to him.
 Japan's War Budget Tokyo, Nov 23-(UP)-Over- riding the economy pleas of it's finance ministry the Japanese cabinet today approved budget of 100000 yen, ($64S,552,- 00) including the largest peace time appropriations ever granted it's army an dnavy forces.
 The navy will receive 530,000,- GOO yen (154,336,D00) and the army 490,O00,0000 yen ($142689,- 000) under the program approved in an early morning cabinet ses- ssion marked with considerable argument.
 The cabinet action was a vic- tory for Admiral Mineo Osumi, naval minister, and Gen SenJuro Hayashi, minister of war, over the conservative finance minister, Fujii.
 Fujii had slashed heavily the or iginal army and navy requests, seeking to keep the governmental expenditures within income and to avoid further "ren ink" bond us- sues.
 The budget must be submitted for final approval to the imperial diet, which almost unanimously last year approved a budget of 2.112, 100000 yen, ($615,014,400) A per cent of which went to army and navy requirements.
 The budget as it now stands, fol- lowing cabinet approval, gives the army and navy forces approxi- mately $290,0OO,O00 to spend on new ships, on fighting men and equipment, and new enterprises in the year to come.
 America Britain Closer
 London, Nov 23.-(UP)-Great Britain and the United States moved into closer cooperation ;n the naval discussions to-day, ap- parently both opposed to Japan's claim to full naval equality.
 Britain and the United States were understood to have agreed at to-day's meeting to continue naval negotiations until Japan notifies the United States of abrogation Q. the Washington treaty, expected on December 20.
 | Prolongation of the talks would enable Britain and the United States to address various questions to Japan. designed to reveal the political considerations prompting Japan to insist on parity.
 Hence the parleys at present have abandoned technical naval issues for broad political fields.

 A. Yes. If the lending agency is satisfied there should be no objec- ton under the Housing Adminis- tration regulations.
 Q. May a group of building supply houses form a finance com pany for the purpose of financing the renovation and mOdernizatiOn of homes? If so, will such loans be eligible for insurance under the Federal Housing Act?
 A. Yes. Several such agencies have been formed and the loans are insured if the financial set up is approved by the Housing Ad- ministration.
 Q. What is the minimum salary necessary to qualify for loan?
 A. Loans are made on charac- ter, standing in the community and ability to repay. The annual in- come of the borrower must be at least times the amount of his annual payments.
 U. My mousse IS paftIy com. pleted, but not finished. With $1,SOO to $1,9OO I can finish 1t up and move in. It is free of incunl- berance. Will a bank lend me the money under your regulations to complete it?
 A. There is nothing in the Ma tional Housing Act to prevent 1t. It is entirely up to the bank. How ever, 1t might be advisable for you to await the early publication of the mortgage insurance provisions of the act. Under this you could probably put an insured mortgage on your home, at low rate, run ming over 10 to 15 years or long CT, while under the modernization plan the loan must be paid with in three years, or at the most five years and the monthly payment is necessarily higher.
 Q. I am planning to make . breakfast room out of an old pam try. I am told that everything but the furniture can be, financed un. der the terms of the Nationa Housing Act. Can't breakfast room furniture be included?s
 A. The furniture may be includ. ed if built in and stationary. Nov able breakfast room furniture can not be financed with an insured loan

The Enemies of the
Soviet Union Howl

ENEMIES of the Soviet Union are driven
IA to desperate straits these days. Socialist
leaders like Algernon Lee have to hob-nob
with those who want the Gar back. The
Saturday Evening Post, unable to continue
its ancient and hoary tales of starvation in the Soviet
Union publishes pages of drivel about Elsie Dins-
morskaya, and the Soviet mind"
The mud-slingers are discovering that their fist
fulls of dirt do not seem to make any impression on
the gigantic industrial giants springing up in the
land Of Socialism. This makes them all the more
furious. They raise their shrieks to an historical
pitch hoping to drown out the laughter of happy
people and the hum of Socialist advance in the
US.SR.
For example you will never see the New York
Times, nor the New Leader, nor the Russian white
guard newspaper headline such prosaic facts that
come out of the Soviet Union
In September 1884, the output of the blast
furnaces of the Soviet Union exceeded that of the
o'SA. The USA in that month produced 9o5 143
tons of pig iron The Soviet Union 9168O0 tons
Every branch Of industry in the Soviet Union
exceeded the output Of 1888 by far. Just few
examples of the achievements over last year: but
ter production increased by 2O2 per cent; iron ore
by 149 per cent; silk by 121 per cent; coke by 14O
per cent; knitting by 119 per cent; electric power
by l3l per cent-and so the figures CO. leaps ahead
IN the production of the means of life and the
means of producing the means of life
That's what makes the enemies of the Soviet
Union howl. Socialist construction and COLLECTIVE
cation sweep ahead (the Soviet Union is the largest
producer of tractors and agricultural machinery in
the world, by the way. The foul soil in which
capitalist exploitation could have the slightest
breeding place is being sterilized
Besides, the Soviet Union has strengthened the
armed force and the power of it's proetarian dc
tatorshp for the defeat of those fees who by assas
Slnaton or war, may hope to stop this onward rush
Of Socialist construction
