day, A. G. Barnhart Of that city,
member Of the committee that Is 60
ing 10 Washington, being quoted as
announcing the facts.
The fight against the RobStown
differential was started by the farm
organization last fall. The farmers
circulated petitions which have been
signed by about 10000 Valley peo-
pie. The committee, composed OF
Ruff. Barnhart and H. c. Warren
Of Lyford, had planned to go TO
washington last week. but informa-
ton from the capital that West was
coming to the Valley with the in
tention Of aiding in the freight rate
fight caused a change in plans.
It is the contention Of the farm
leaders that if the Valley will present
a united front and conduct a spirit
ed fight against the differentlal
that this penalty which works IN Ia
vor Of the Robstown growers can be
removed. But If the differential IS
linked with the fight against gen.
orally higher rates which went into
effect this season in the Consolidat-
ed Southwestern case that the whole
matter will drag along. The Con-
solidated Southwestern case did not
increase potato and cabbage rates,
but raised most others, including to-
matoes and beans.
Barnhart in announcing the action
OF the farm leaders indicated that
the farm organizations move TO Sc
cure removal of the differential petit
ton has not brought support from
other interests. He Is quoted as
stating the farmers realize this
method alone can not bring relief
but that legal methods used IN the
past have likewise failed, and the
farmers propose to combine them 70
help get the differentlal removed.
The telegram TO West follows:
Our board OF directors deem II
advisable that you hold yourself IN
readiness in washington TO aid our
committee in properly presenting our
case before the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Our committee VIII
leave here about the 10th. We feel
that YOU can be of much greater as
sistance to Us there than by coming
here at this time 1t was signed by
Fl. 3. Huntley. SECRETARY OF the TIL
County Growers association.
Port Will Solve Problem
Last year a vigorous fight against
the differentisl was launched, main
II BY shippers. who reSorted TO short
hauling. The shippers at that time
expressed the belief that If the two
railroads serving the Valley would
agree TO removal Of the d~ifferentlal'
that it could be removed IN a week
OF less.
The differential will not have
much affect on the cabbage sltua-
tion the remainder Of this season as
the Corpus Christi area has practi-
cally no cabbage now.
II IS the belief Of rate men VINO
have studied the situation that deep
water transportation from the VAL
lev by next season will probably solve
both the differential matter ana
higher freight rates generally, as
some leading Valley shippers are
making plans TO start moving their
produce BY boat next season. Rail
roads as in the case Of truck COM
petition in handling OF cotton, are
expected to meet the lower rates

RAYMOND Hamilton we're raised by
the discovery of blood stains III the
gas service truck which he stole o
his getaway from the officers am

Blood traces at shoulder height IN
the drivers seat led Police Captain
j.. w. Fritz to express opinion ne
had been hard hit. Other stains.
on the cushion and floor boards
we're interpreted as meaning he had
been struck a second time IN the
region OF the knee.
The truck, as part Of It's regular
equipment, carried soap, brushes,
and water. Officers who inspected
the machine when 1t was found
hidden in a clump of trees ten
miles from here Tuesday night said
il was obvious the fleeing g~angster
had attempted to wash off the blood
to prevent them from learning he
had been hit.
Reports Flow I'm
A report that Raymond had been
seen in downtown Dallas shortly be-
fore 2 a.. m. sent police Scurrying
over the city in a renewed hunt.
The report was based on a meet
ing between two automobiles, with
witnesses saying a woman got out OF
one car, handed a rifle TO a young
man and said, Now for Gods sake
be careful, Ray"
The man entered the other al
and drove away. Police said they
were told a second man stood wait
ing on the corner until the woman
drove up. Then he was reported to
have darted into an adjoining lot
from which the man suspected Of
being Hamilton came a moment
later TO take the gun and speed
away.
Floyd Hamilton had a ticket to
Vivian, La. where his father is en-
ployed in an oil refinery. when he
was taken into custody.
Don't shoot" he cried as the
deputies recognized him and prod
ded him with pistols. Il haven't
got a gun"
The specific charge on which
Sheriff r. A. Schmid brought him
back to Dallas was aiding the late
Clyde Barrow in freeing Raymond
and four others from the Texas
prison farm last year by hiding pis-
tolls for use when Barrow and his
gang raided the farm.

Fisher immediately began TO quiz
him Oh the examination OF the lad
der for fingerprintS.
He told Of DR.. Hudson's visit 70
the Lindbergh estate on March II
or IA. after the kidnapping.
@. What was he down there for?
A. To demonstrate a new process,
known as the silver nitrate process
designed 10 bring out latent finger
prints on wood.
Dr.. Hudson. Kub.er said. demon
SIated his process on two other
pieces Of wood in the basement Of
the Llndbergh home.
One section OF the ladder was used
later by DR.. Hudson 10 make a test
in the back yard.
q. Any prints dlscoVered2
"A. Yes a few but they were not
readable.
DR.. Hudson left soon after. KubleT
said, and he continued the applica-
ton OF the process. off and on
Tor two weeks.
Q. Eventually. YOU did complete
the processing Of the ladder. How
many prints we're found2
A. About lbs markings were
found. Only about 20 we're read
ablc.
Fisher asked what effect silver
nitrate had been applied TO wood
KUbler said the lumber turned red
but It's color could be restored by
washing ID with a bichloride Of mer-
curry solution.
The young attorney then made
much Of the fact the ladder prints
were destroyed when the silver nj
trate colorlng was washed.
The witness asserted he die not
know that Dr. Hudson had produced
500 prints from the ladder or that
1000 pictures had been made of ID.
Kubler told Fisher he had never
used DR.. Hudson's process in inves-
tigation OF an actual crime.
Fisher asked "A few more cues
tons and had the witness say that
a man might make a print at one
time and not az another.
q So a man might carry lumber
around, handle 1t and still not leave

Beagle an Old Dog

The beagle is generally considered
to be a very old breed. English In
origin, of course. Some dog historians
believe that it may have been among
the original English dogs. Such a
thing is quite plausible, notes an au-
thority in the Chicago Tribune. be-
cause hounds for the chase are very
old in the evolution Of dogs. Even
Xenophon wrote about hunting hares
and the use of dogs FOR this sport. So
it is not surprising that hounds like
the beagle and the barrier take US way
back in history. The beagle is justly
popular in America. It is popular in
the hunting fields where the fast-run-
ming cottontail can be found. and 1t is
a dog that takes top registration hon.
crs among the sporting hounds.
