PROGRESS IS TOLD
IN LOR|NG PROBE
ltze! Declares Certain An
giles OF Case Have Been
Cleared Up.
BY a stan Correspondent of The Star.

BY STAFF Correspondent OF The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, Md, Decem-
Der THE Loring murder investiga-
tion today was believed speeding to-
ward solution as Lieut.. Joseph H.
Itzel of the Baltimore homicide squad,
in charge Of the investigation, an
nounced that certain points heretofore
obscure had been cleared up.
He prepared today to question four
witnesses, expected to further clarity
other points which have delayed prog
reSs in the search for the murderer Of
the 26-year-old stenographer bride
to-be.
Found Four Weeks Ago.
One of the chief witnesses today is
the Mount Rainier man who commu-
nicated to Itzel that he had valuable
information, and that Itzel himself
was the only person in whom he would
confide.
Miss Corinna Loring disappeared
from her Mount Rainier home on No
vember 4 and her beaten and gar
rotted body was found on November
9-four weeks ago today.
The Mount Rainier man was ex-
pected at Itzel's headquarters here at
noon.
Two colored woodchoppers who cut
down q tree in the back yard of the
Loring home on the evening of No
vember 4 were en- route to the court
house this morning for questioning.
Itzel attempted to contact them yes
terday, but was unable to learn their
identity until last night.
Tears Sister Questioned.
The colored men are to be ques-
toned as to whether any strange per-
sons we're seen around the Loring
home the day that Corinna diSap-
! peared.
Mrs. Mabel Blair, a sister Of Richard
Tear, fiance of Miss Loring, was
questioned by Itzel late last night.
She came here with q brother, Jack
Tear.
Mrs. Blair, a divorcee, who lives In
Washington, was interviewed IN re-
gard to certain testimony taken by
Lieut.. Itzel in the early part of his
investigation. What the Baltimore
detective learned from her was not
disclosed.
Robert F. Hicks. Washington GRIM
inologiSt, who has made a technical
examination of much of the evidence
unearthed in the battling case, con-
| la. srxi,A
Tries to Match Glove.
He revealed that a paper napkin
found near Miss Loring's body did
not match any of the napkins he had
since obtained from barbecue stands
in the Mount Rainier neighborhood.
He also said that the rope which
strangled Miss Loring to death was
tied with a slip knot, the kind which
only a man with water front expert
ence would tie.
Hicks is in Baltimore today trying
to match the mans glove which also
was found near the body. An investi-
CATION of Washington stores disclosed
that brand of glove was not sold in
the District of Columbia
Teeth Marks Recalled.
He further said the pair of gloves
cost not less than $5.
The dead hand Of Miss Loring
meanwhile may point out the man,
or woman, who killed her, according
to the Associated Press.
Hicks last night completed plas-
ter cast made of Miss Loring's hand
and wrist. The cast clearly reveals
marks Hicks says were made by hu-
man teeth.
Study of the cast does not reveal,
ne says, whether Miss Loring was
bitten by a man or woman.

TALK TO OPEN CAMPAIGN.
Jefferson Day Address Here to Be
Broadcast.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December CHAR
man James A. Farley of the Demo-
cratic National Committee last night
announced that President Roosevelt
would officially open the 1886 Demo-
cratic campaign with an address in
Washington January 8.
He said the President would speak
at a Jackson day dinner there and
that similar gatherings were planned
for every community of 5000 Or more
population-a total of 1900. The
Presidents speech will be broadcast.
Farley'S announcement was made
to State presidents of Young Demo-
cratic Clubs over a Nationwide tele-
phone circuit from party headquarters
in the BiltInore Hotel here.
1t was said that never before had
a single telephone call been made
simultaneously to every State in the
Union.
Farley expressed the hope that the
observance of Jackson day-anniver-
sary of Gen. Andrew Jackson's rout of
the British at New Orleans-"will be
marked by the greatest testimonial to
our President and our party which this
Nation has ever witnessed"
He urged workers "to take an active
and militant part in this reconsecra-
ton of our citizens to the ideals to
which the Democratic party is COM
p1itted. ="
.''It seems to me entirely fitting" he
said, that those who believe in the
accomplishments of President Roose-
velt and his administration should get
together in public expression of that
confidence. It would be impossible to
bring together in one place all of those
who appreciate the benefits that have
come to them through this administra-
tion. By giving each community the
opportunity Of conducting its own ex-
erciseS, every section of the country
will be able to have hand not only
In honoring the President, but assist
ing the Democratic party in the 1885
campaign"
Farley told the Young Democrats the
price of the dinners should be worked
out on basis which will permit for
warding a part of what every diner
pays to the national committee"
The proceeds will be used to cut
down the committees deficit.

After all Mr.. Hull has said about
the sanctity of treaties, it appears not
to have been even disconcerting for
him when his lawyers pointed out
pertinent article six. It says:
"No prohibition shall be imposed
on the importation or erportdtion
OF any article, the produce or man
utGcture OF the United States or
Italy to or from the territories OF
the United States or to or from
the territories of Italy, t0hich shall
not equally ertend to all other
nations"
In ineligible but undiplomatic
Language, that means the United
States and Italy agreed not to adopt
prohibitions against their trade or
commerce unless extended to every
one.
Still Technically In Effect.
Few non partisan lawyers will doubt
that the treaty is still technically in
effect. It carries specific provision
that it shall remain in effect until one
year after one country specifically dis
avows it. Neither Italy nor the United
States has.
Mr.. Hull has been able to get
conscience easing opinion IRON, his
IdUyers to the effect that Italy
Dtol1ted the spirit OF the treaty By
imposing tariff quotas fetD years
back. This is probably true. but
If the United States considered the
quotas vtoldtion it should hGUe
SerUed notice against Italy and
giuen the one-ye1r notice OF cGn-
collation..
Legalites now writing the new neu-
trality legislation have been looking
for better legal excuse than that one.
They have to find one to make any
neutrality legislation really effective.
Stirred Over Embargo.
The New Dealers seemed to be more
steamed up about the rectitude of their
position on the embargo issue than on
any other lately. A few days ago an
authority near the top fatty said the
President and Mr.. Hull were agreed
that they were not going to let Ameri.
can trade interfere with the effective
ness Of any League Of Nations oil
action against Italy. Voluntary ap-
peals will be made first, indirect pres
sure next, but If everything fails, the
President Che said) would slap oil into
the embargo List as q war material, law
or no law.

REDS PROBLEM
FOR SWANSON

Any action by Secretary of the
Navy Swanson against the alleged
operation of Communists in the
Washington Navy Yard will await
action by Congress on pending
anti-Red legislation, it was an
nounced at the Secretary's press
conference today.
Asked if he would act even if
Congress failed to provide the nee
essary legislation, Mr.. Swanson
said it would be a "ticklish mat
ter" because each of the SO alleged
Reds in the Navy Yard are under
Civil Service. He said:
Each case will have to be de-
cided on its merits. If there. is
any concrete evidence against
any of the workers named, how
ever, 1 will find some way of
dealing with them"

Senator William H. King CD

failure to keep promises made at
the last convention with regard to
reduction of the public debt" in
an address last night before the
District Bar Association.
The chairman of the Senate
District Committee declared that
instead of reducing the public
debt, the Administration has EN-.
barked on lavish expenditures,
creating the largest budget the
country has ever known.
He also hit the NRA and cen
tralization of government, charg-
ing the present trend was toward
a menacing abrogation of State
rights and such a movement in
foreign nations had led to dicta-
torship, chaos and disaster. He
declared:
"The NRA and other New
Deal organizations are cOmbin.
ing the States into a protOplas-
mic mass, which is bound to
arouse a distinct fear for the
future in the minds of those
who have the best interests of
the country at heart"

KING WHO QUIT
ON VACATION

CRANLEIGH, England, March
13.-While the Siamese parlia-
ment continued to ponder a sue
cessor to the throne of the "su-
preme arbiter of the ebb and
flow of the tides" King Prajad-
hipok, who has announced his
abdication from the throne, was
enjoying a vacation" here.
Eleven-year-old Prince Amanda
has been named os the likely sue.
cessor to the tlNone, but the lads
delicate health, coupled with his
own expressed desire to enjoy
his boyhood, may defeat this
move. The boy, the son of Prin-
cess Sanjkla Mahadal, 28-year-old
sister-in-law of the abdicating
monarch, is now in Switzerland.
The vast estates of the abdica-
ting king, it has been reported,
will be forfeit to the kingdom, but
Prajadhikop need not worry for
the future. Quite some time ago,
the monarch insured himself
against the days when he would
no longer be king, according to re-
ports.
He invested in insurance with
English and French companies,
the reports state. paying premiums
of more than $1,000,0OO, and will
have a comfortable income from
the insurance for the remainder
of his days.

EDUCATION
Thinks whole Picture Should

In True Democracy

Mrs. Roosevelt today criticized
"biased" education and those per.
sons who believe that the educa-
ton of young people should be
controlled.
Declaring that she has never
been sympathetic with persons
who are afraid to present "the
whole picture" of economics and
government to students she stated
that in a true democracy it is
every vital" that there be freedom
of education.
Now that adult education is be.
coming such a potent factor, she
added, the country is going to find
itself in the position of having to
determine whether education shall
be controlled or free.
1t is very important, she de.
clared, that teachers should never
teach bias" and added that they
must give the entire picture Of
what they are teaching without
forcing an opinion on their stu
dents.
She said that the present hyS.
terra of investigation" lies in the
fact that there is a fear that
subversive doctrines are being
taught, but asserted that she has
seen very little of it.

TO SLASH WORK RELIEF FUNDS RENEWED IN SENATE
M'Henry Doctor
Left 100000
By Patient

TAUNTON, Mass, March 13.
DR.. Philemon E. TrueSdale, the
Fall River surgeon who righted
the twisted internal organs of
little Alyce Jayne McHenry, of
Omaha, will receive 100000 un.
der the provisions of a will of
one of his patients who has just
died. The will was made by
Miss Mary A. Case, of Swansea,
a spinster who died leaving an
estate estimated at a million and
a half dollars.
It was not surprising to this
section of New England that the
McHenry girl was brought here
to be operated on by the Fall
River specialist. His magic as a
surgeon has spread far beyond the
boundaries of the community
where he practices.
With all his skill as a surgeon
he has lost none of the natural
kindness of a sensitive nature, as
testified by the tribute paid him
by his former patient.

FLYING BLIND

OAKLAND, CAL, March 13
G.N.S0. - Somewhere over the
Pacific today three United States
Army officers we're flying blind"
in an airplane piloted by a
robot"
The windows of the cockpit
were blackened, and the planes
destination was unknown.
The twin-motored Douglass
plane with Capt. Clayton Bissell
in command hoped off from the
Oakland Airport at 4:56 a. M,
with enough gasoline for flight
of several hours" according to
the captain.
Captain Bissell said:
"The flight is being made for
experimental purposes and is
sponsored by the Department Of
Commerce"
He and his companions were
tight-lipped about their destina-
ton, although he did admit that
Department of Commerce had "in
mind plans for long overwater
commercial flying"
