THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION
ISSUED BY MAYOR EDWARDS

Whereas, it has been the good
custom of the people in America
to set aside one day in each year
for the purpose of giving an ex-
preston of gratitude to the God
of us all for the manifold bless
ings of the year, 1T is most fitting
and proper that the people of the
City of Hendersonville observe
this event in all solemnity. No
other community in this state or
in any other state of the Union
has greater cause for giving
thanks unto Natures God than
we; therefore, we should enter
into the spirit of this occasion in
full realization of, and deepest
gratitude for, the blessings we
have received.
From a business standpoint our
people have enjoyed an unusually
| good year.
Our tourist business during the
past summer season was one OF
the best ever experienced IN this
city.
Nature has been especially kind
unto this city throughout the year
in the fine weather enjoyed here.
Our churches and Sunday
schools have been a benediction
upon this city.
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1934-11-27

Our public schools are flourish
ing, both teacher and student re-
fleeing great credit and honor
upon the community.
The health of our people, gen.
orally speaking, has been unusual
ly good throughout the year.
These, and many other bless
ings have been showered upon this
city.
Now, therefore, I, as Mayor of
the City of Hendersonville, in
harmony with the call of our
President, who speaks for the ma
ton, and with our Governor, who
speaks for the State, do proclaim
Thursday, November 20, 1884, a
Day of Thanksgiving, wherein
our citizens are respectfully re-
quested and urged to observe the
day in spirit of deep reverence
and with sincere gratitude to the
Almighty God for the many bless
ings which have been bestowed
upon US.
Done in the City of Hender-
sonville, North Carolina, on this
the 23rd day of November, in the
Year of Our Lord One Thousand
Nine Hundred and Thirty-four.

Divinity Student
Kills Bride, Priest
In New York Hotel
Expresses Willingness to
90 to chair After Dual
Homicide

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-(UP).
Joseph I. Steinmetz, divinity stu
dent, today expressed willingness
to go to the electric chair after
killing his bride, Ruth, and the
Reverend Father Jos. ]. Leonard,
when he found his wife and the
priest together in a Knights of
Columbus hotel room last night.
Steinmetz is recovering from Il
drunken stupor. He said he and
his wife and the priest began
drinking Sunday night. All were
registered at the same hotel.
While lying on the bed resting
last night, Steinmetz said he
heard the priest invite his bride
to his room for confession. Stein
metz later arose and went to
Leonard's room, finding the pair
together. He said he remembered
no more after pulling pistol
from his pocket and firing several
shots at the pair.
The Diocesan Chancellory at
Trenton, n. j., issued a statement
describing Leonard as mentally
sluggish.

THANKSGIVING DINNER WILL
COST LITTLE MORE THAN IT
DID LAST YEAR, IS SHOWN
Survey Indicates Popular Impression That All Foods
Advanced Is Not Sustained; Turkey Only up
Four Cents on the Pound

Housewives who go to mar
ket Wednesday will not pay a
great deal more for Thanksgiving
dinner provisions than they did
last year, Hendersonville grocers
pointed out today.
Price rises on a number of
food items, particularly pork and
it's products, flour and several
other necessities, have given rise
to the popular belief that the holi-
day dinner will have to be less
elaborate this year, they said,
when as matter of fact several
important items are lower in price
than they were a year ago, and
the total cost of the dinner need
not be high.
A survey of food prices today
revealed that turkeys and ducks
have advanced from 81 to 25
cents a pound and hens from 10
to 20 cents a pound. Pork and
beef cuts also are up a few cents,
but oysters at SO cents a quart
are the same as lagt year. Celery,
sweet potatoes, fruit cake, nuts
and other items are the same in

new CLUES IN
CHILD DEATHS
UNEARTHED
Two Abandoned Cars and
Missing Man May
Link With Case

CARLISLE, Nov. 27.-(UP)--
Coroner E. A. Heagele today
quoted Emmett Hamilton, Cleve-
land, Ohio, saying he believed the
victims of the "babes in the
woods" tragedy may be his daugh-
tiers. Hamilton viewed the bodies
and said one of his daughters,
whom he hadn't seen for three
years, had mole on her back like
the eldest victim.
Discovery of an abandoned
house on wheels in a local garage
was believed to be a significant
break in the mystery of the three
girls whose bodies were found in
South Mountains. State police
held the vehicle. The automobile
bore a license traced to w. Clyde
Hazlett.
At Los Angeles a clerk at Haz-
let's hotel said he had not been
seen recently. Another possible
clue was uncovered at st. Glars
vile, Ohio, where an abandoned
coupe bearing a Pennsylvania Ii
cense was found in ravine. A
child's glove was found on the
floor. A small cross-shaped mark
found one one of the children's
forehead was believed to have no
significance. 1t was believed TO
have been made by fall or per
haps by branding before the child
was six months old.

JAPAN NOW SEEKS TRI-PARTY
ACTION ON NAVAL PARLEYS

United States and Japan, with ia
pan on the "3"-end.
The meeting also seemed TO
bring out more definitely than
ever that the present conferences
will fail to reach any agreement,
hence the delegates are turning
their attention to the obscure out
look after the pact is denounced.
Matsudaira assured Davis that
despite reports to the contrary,
the Japanese delegation had made
nothing like a revise SD naval
ratio proposition to the British,
with Japan and the United States
to have equal naval strengths, but
less than Britain. He said the re-
ports were false, thus moving to
eliminate the growing suspicion
among the American delegation.
A spokesman denied that the
date for Japan's denunelatlon OF
the treaty had been discussed by
Davis and Matsudaira, emphasiz-
ing this is entirely a matter LOT
Tokyo to decide.

LOS ANGELES POLICE USE CLUBS.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 81. (UP)
Rioting men descended last night
upon the heart of the city and
piled up street cars, buses, auto
mobiles and pedestrians in a tan
gle that 500 police dispersed only
through the frantic use of tear
gas and night-sticks.
The raiders turned the corner
of Seventh and Broadway, one of
the busiest intersections in the
world, into a frozen cluster of We
hicles and pedestrians, packed so
thickly that police were forced to
gas and club non-participants to
reach the center.
At the height of the confusion,
yellow street cars, buses and au-
tomobiles were backed up in all
four directions from the corner
for three to five blocks, and mid
town traffic was paralyzed.
The crowd, estimated at 5000
or more, was dispersed after po-
lice had fired scores of tear gas
bombs into the snarl and had

others are approximately the

that are lower than last year are
bananas and Irish potatoes, while
outstanding among the articles

the popularity of this bird as the

Franks said, however, that he hop
ed the results of, the campaign
will compare favorably with those
of past years.
Mr.. Franks said he appreciates
the splendid efforts made by all
those who are assisting in the en-
rollment campaign. However, it
is almost impossible" he contin-
ued, "for our workers to see all
who should join the Red Cross.
This opportunity comes to us only
once each year, and the cost of
membership so small and the
service rendered by this great or
ganization so important and so
necessary for our own safety and
welfare that it behooves all of us
who possibly can to take advan-
tage of this opportunity to have

have not already enrolled as
members of the Red Cross during
this campaign and who wish to
do so, may leave their member
