BUTTONS CLUES
To FURTHER
VICTIMS
Girls Dental Charts Sent Out
All Over Country; Step
Toward Conviction

IO"0I " OOIIViOAINll
NEW YORK, Dec. 18 Q.N.SO.
Redoubling their efforts to send
Albert Howard Fish, former Wash
ington, D. c., choir boy, to the
electric chair, Westchester county
officials today launched a nation
wide search for the one man who
can pave the way toward convict
ing him of fi1st-degree murder.
Thousands of copies of chart
showing dental work on the teeth
of little Grace Budd-the blood
mad killers victim-Were prepared
today for distribution throughout
the country in final hope OF
positively identifying the bleached
skull found near Wisteria Mansion
in Greenburgh.
The chart will be displayed In
post offices and public places and
published in dental journals and
newspapers in all sections OF the
United States in the hope some
dentist will recognize the work he
did on the child's teeth several
years ago. The teeth provide the
only means of identifying the
body, the flesh of which wasted
away years ago.
Reenact Crime
District Attorney Francis <.
Coyne is not going to await the
results of the search before NOV
ing for a first-degree murder in
dictment, however. And ne is not
going to permit his detectives to
overlook new evidence which ap-
pears to discredit Fish's insistent
claim that the Budd child was his
only victim.
Subpoenas were issued this
morning for Mrs. Della Budd,
members of her family and New
York detectives who questioned
Fish. They will testify before the
Westchester grand jury Thursday,
Immediately after the jurors visit
Wisteria Mansion.
The stained walls of the old
murder house" will look down on
a reconstruction of the killing of
Grace Budd. Detectives will show
how Fish says he strangled the
little girl and then hacked her
body to pieces.

dictments. Mrs. Budd and her
son, as we'll as various investi-
gators, appeared before the grand
jury and gave information on
which the New York jurors were to
be asked to indict Fish for kidnap-
ing.
Detectives who have grilled the
prisoner seemed satisfied with his
statement that Grace was his only
victim.
But two round steel buttons, the
size of nickels, turned up in West
chester to question the apparently
straightforward story he told.
The buttons were found among
the weather-beaten bones supposed
to be Grace Budd's mortal re-
mains. They were sifted out of
the same shovelfuls of soil that
yielded the child's teeth and vel.
lowed pearl beads.

An analysis of all Fish's confes-
sions and the statements of wit

Of the Budd girl having worn such
buttons. Grace's mother said only

to her daughters clothing.

Declaring that the present adult
generation has failed miserably in
its duty and that decisive steps in
behalf of juvenile welfare must be
taken if the nations future safety
and we'll being is to be conserved,
Harvey Atherton of San Diego gave
a forceful address in behalf of the
Boy Scout movement to a joint
meeting of the chamber of COM
merce, Lions, Rotary and KiWanis
clubs at the Barbara Worth hotel
today.
Arraigning the adult generation
for its indifference TO the welfare
CT Juveniles in its chase for the al
mighty dollar, Atherton asserted
that the juveniles of the country
are the finest boys and girls in the
nations history, despite the indif-
ferent attitude toward them, and
charged that in cases where they
have made mistakes, it must be
blamed upon this indifference.
The adult generation must re-
wise its sense of values, he told his
audience and devote itself to the
development of spiritual ideals in
the youngsters instead of teach
ing them, as it has done, that fl
nancial success is the most i'm
portant thing in life.
He declared the United States is
the most lawless civilized nation in
the world, with an annual crime
bill of two billions of dollars, 10000
murders annually and hundreds
of thousands of lesser crimes.
Statistics show a 400 to 600 per
cent increase in crime in recent
years and the average age of Sc
rious criminals has dropped until
j it is below 81 years, he stated and
IS per cent of the serious crimes
are committed by youths of Is and
/ 10 years.
/ He declared the Boy Scout move
ment is the only answer to this
! appalling increase in juvenile de-
! linquency and stated that there
is no record of a Boy Scout or a
former Boy Scout being sent to
prison for a felony.
! Sketchlng the purpose OF the
Boy Scout movement he explained
that it offers a means for boys
i to devote their leisure time to
some useful purpose, thereby Civ
ing them a means to use their nat
ural energy to good advantage in
stead Of diverting it into mischiev-
Gus and ultimately criminal chan
nels.

LOAN GRANTED
BY HENDERSON

WASHINGTON. March s. U.P)-
Paul II. Henderson, vice president of
the United Aircraft and Transport
Co, told senate investigators today
that he lent $4,000 to a post office
department official in the fall of
1890, several months after his COM
pany obtained a transcontinental
mail contract.
Henderson testified before the air
mail committee that the money
went to Chase Cove. chief assistant
to w. Irving Glover. former assist
ant postmaster general, to protect
Gove'S losses in stock market tran
Sactions.
Henderson'S testimony about the
Cove loan followed a question by
Chairman Hugo L. Black. seeking
information on the amount of gifts
Henderson had made to government
officials since 1926.
If you exclude Christmas pre-
sentS of boxes of cigars or bottles OF
wine. 1 have made no gifts" Hen
derson said. However, 1 lent some
money to Chase Cove" He said the
notes had not been paid, and had
been destroyed.

CLUBS HEAR FINE APPEAL IN
BEHALF Of BOY SCOUT WORK

Scout laws. The cost of maintain
ing a Scout in San Diego county
for a year is Sc, contrasting with
a cost of 5000 to maintain a boy
for the same period in the Whit
tier reform school.
"A penitentiary is only monu-
ment to the neglected child" he
declared. and the enormous cost
to the nation in taking care of its
criminals would provide for ali the
Boy Scout requirements the nation
would need over long period.
In conclusion he declared that
attainment of the eagle rank in
scouting is a better means of fit
ting youth properly for adult life
than any college diploma that can
be granted and made an earnest
appeal to the adults of Imperial
Valley to lend their moral support
and assistance to the Boy Scout
work.
The speaker was presented to
the meeting by Russell Kliegel,
chairman of the Imperial Valley
Scout council. President Roy
Breedlove of the El Centro Rotary
club presided.
Cliff Carpenter of Van Nuys ac-
companied by Professor Elmer A.
Todd, led the meeting in commu-
nifty singing.

mot CONSTIPATED
FOR SEVEN WEEKS"
Writes Mrs. johnson After
Using Kellogg's ALL-BRAN

Sufferers from constipation will
be interested in this unsolicited
letter:
"Your ALL-BRAN surely relieves
constipation. am so glad over the
good it has done me that | feel |
must write and tell you of it.
"For lunch I take a banana, a
large one. Six tablespoons Of ALL
BRAN in a sauce dish, and dip
banana at each bite until all IS
consumed. / haven't been consti-
pated now for seven weeks. Mrs.
Louise johnson, 1433 Forest Street,
Denver, Colorado.
Constipation often causes head
aches. loss Of appetite and energy,
sleeplessness. This condition is
usually due to lack of "bulk" to eX-
ercise the intestines, and vitamin B
to further promote regular habits.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN has both, as
well as iron for the blood.
The 'rbulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that in leafy vegetables. With
in the body, it forms a soft mass.
Gently, it clears out the wastes.
Try ALL-BRAN in place of patent
medicines - often harmful. Two
tablespoonfuls daily will overcome
most types of constipation. Chronic
cases, with each meal. II not re-
lieved this way, see your doctor.
Use as a cereal, or in cooking.
