Two AMERICAN
MISSIONARIES
FOUND SLAIN
Fate Of Child Reported
Dead at Hands Of Com
munists Is Unknown
10000 REGULARS in
PURSUIT OF HORDE

SHANGHAI, Dec. 14.-(UP).
The Chinese national government
acting on strong representations
by United States consular forces
today sent 10000 soldiers in
pursuit of bandits who killed Mr..
and Mrs. John STAN, American
missionaries, and abducted their
daughter, Helen, age two months.
Bodies of the STAINS were found
eight miles from the mission sta
ton. The child's fate is under
termined.
The bandits fled westward in
to the interior destroying roads
and bridges, thus making the
chase doubly difficult.
The bodies of John C. STAN,
81, and his wife, Elizabeth. 25,
murdered by their bandits abduc-
tors, were found eight miles from
Esingten, the China Inland mis-
sion reported today.
Fate of the couples two months
old daughter, Helen, was UNI
known. First reports from rs
ingten, in Southern Anhwei prov
ince, had indicated that one Of
the bodies found was that of the
infant.
Meanwhile, fears for the Rev.
erend Erwin A. Kohfield, his wife
and their three children were al
layed by a telegram from Kob-
field to missionary headquarters,
saying he and his family were
safe.
Kohfield added, however, that
it was impossible for them to
leave their mission station at
Tunki, some 60 miles from Using
teh, because of impossible roads
and bridges washed out in recent
heavy rains.
The message indicated that the
Kohfields feared possibility of
further communist raids.
A tragic sequel to discovery of
, the bodies was announcement by
the China Inland mission that it
had received a letter from the
STAINS, sent after their capture,
saying they were held for $780,
600 ransom. The bodies were
found before the mission could
attempt to contact the kidnapers.
The letter said the STAINS had
not had time to escape a sudden
bandit raid on Tsingteh, and had
been captured when the "red"
forces swarmed into the village,

He urged every club to set a goal

EARLY MURDER
OF MAJOR FEY
is NAzI GOAL
Austrian Interior Minister'S
Death Part of Scheme
for European Turmoil
By ROBERT H. BEST
United Press Staff Correspondent
(Copyrisht, 1884, United Press)

N(OpyrlSn(, 1922, ShihSo
VIENNA, Dec. 14.-CUP).-
Minister of Interior Major Emil
Fey is slated for early assassina-
ton by a small group of deter
mined, fanatical Nazis, the United
Press learned last night from high
authorities. The plot is part of
terrorist activities keeping Eu-
rope in turmoil.
One attempt already has been
made on Fey's life this month.
The man who tried to kill Fey is
now in prison, purportedly be-
cause "he was a spy in HEINZ
wehr (home guard) camp" Ac-
tually, ne attempted, and almost
succeeded in attacking Major Fey
about ten days ago.
The man is Josef Niederdorfer,
police said, long considered a So
called moderate Nazi. Therefore,
when he applied for admission to
the heimwehr, he was accepted as
a Convert"
The plot against Fey is chal-
lenge to the League of Nations in
its new resolution calling on all
members to aid in a stern cam
paign to rid the continent of ter
rorism which has taken startling
toll of lives among leaders in the
past year.
Niederdorfer was believed a
member of the small group deter
mined to get" Fey. as the Nazls
got Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss
last July, in their abortive putsch.
However, his conduct in the
heimwehr was so exemplary dur
ing October and November, that
on December he had little diff
ficulty in obtaining a recommen-
dation from his district comman-
der which enabled him to call at
Fey's offices for an interview.
Niederdorfer passed sentries at

State Conference at
Hickory Saturday

A conference for the considera-
ton of legislative program to be
followed by the two Republican
senators and Is representatives IN
the next general assembly Will
convene tomorrow morning at
Hickory, with w. c. Meeklns'
chairman of the state executive
committee, presiding.
Mr.. Meekins declared that the
Republican members of the next
assembly would not be aole 10
force any legislation, but the con-
ference is for the purpose OF con-
sidering the general program TO
he followed, and the state CHAIR
man feels that the Republicans
NAV be able to suggest Legislation
that would be beneficial to the
state as a whole. y,
The Republican members Will
NOT be bound to vote as unit on
anv measures considered by the
assembly except on those matters
covered in the Republican state
platform. ,;.
Among the platform commit
ments. that of a reduction OF au-
tomobile license tags to five dol
lars is expected to receive much
consideration by the assembly.
The platform also pledged support
to the burlington liquor act and
promised an investigation of pow
err and telephone rates IN the
state.
Mr.. Meekins said that the con-
ference would discuss its legisla-
tive course thoroughly before ad-
iournment and would appoint a
working committee to draw up
suggested legislation.

CURB TRADERS
PROJECT new
MARKET House
Present Establishment on
King Street Outgrown
by Institution
DECLARED THRIVING
DESPITE DEPRESSION

That the Henderson County Mu-
tual Curb Market has so outgrown
its present quarters that the CO.
operative organization sponsoring
and using the market on King
street is faced with the immediate
necessity Of erecting a building to
accommodate the increasing num-
Der of customers, was revealed by
stockholders in the organization
today.
Since the market was incorpo-
rated two years ago, it has accu-
mulated above expenses, including
city and county taxes, about ST.
200. With this as a nucleus, one
stakeholder said, it is hoped that
the organization can proceed with
the erection of a permanent build
ing.
The present location of the
market on King street between
Third and Fourth avenue, is con-
Sidered one of the most desirable.
1t is one block from the bank, two
blocks from the post office, and
comfortably near the shopping
district.
1t is stated that the money re-
ceived from the sales on the curb
market is almost Immediately
spent by the farmers within a few
blocks of the market, and it is
pointed out that probably no bust
ness institution in the county has
enjoyed a more sound, progress
sive development.
Many summer residents of Hen
Jacksonville have declared that
their choice of this place as a
summer home had been largely
decided by the availability of pro-
duce at the curb market.
The lot on which the present
building stands was purchased by
the market two years ago with
funds on hand at that time.
The market is managed by a
board of control, consisting of
five members, elected by the share
holders annually on the last Sat
urday in December. The board
of control names a chairman, Sec
retary-treasurer and sales manag-
err, Che latter not being member
of the board of control. The sec
retary-treasurer is accountant for
funds received and disbursed by
the board. The sales manager
conducts the market, collects COM
missions and turns in funds and
an itemized account to the secre-
tary-treasurer, weekly. The sales
manager receives a small salary
for her work. =,
The corporation is a non-protit
organization and all receipts GO
into upkeep or building invest
ment.
