.ELL|SON'S RING
FOUND MISSING
Motive Seen by Officers for
Staying of Manager of
Brandon Estate.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, June L. Dis
covery that a valuable diamond ring
was missing from the hand Of j. M.
Ellison, murdered manager OF Bran
don Estate, when his body was found
yesterday near the Goochland-Louisa
County line tonight provided officers
with a motive for the crime.
The ring, worn constantly by El-
lison, was reported to be worth $4,000,
q member Of the family said.
Previously, investigators expressed
the view that Ellison. while returning
to Brandon from visit with his sis
ter, Miss Arthur L. Willard. in
Washington, had picked up hitch
hiker who had killed him, posi-
bly, to rob him, though 1t was known
that Ellison had little money with
him on the trip.
Another basis for the belief hitch
hiker killed Ellison was the statement
of q State police investigator that q
convict escaped Sunday from the Fed
eral reformatory at Camp Lee. The
fugitive may have been on his way to
Washington. where his father lives,
or to his own home at Bristol when
he intercepted Ellison, the oficial
surmised.

Few Changes.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Into the fight against the Wheeler
Rayburn bill to abolish public utility
holding companies yesterday was
thrown hitherto unpublished report
by the Commerce Departments Busi-'
ness Advisory Council, recommending
modification Of the measure.
simultaneously, however. predic-
tions were forthcoming from Senator
Wheeler. Democrat. of Montana and
others that the bill would pass the
Senate next week altered but slightly
from its present form.
The report by the Business Council,
composed OF half a hundred prorni-
nent business men, was not made pub
lie by the council itself Typewriter
copies, marked highly confidential"
and approved by the council, May O."
were made available in other quarters.
Change Suggestions Hit.
Senator Wheeler during the day
waived aside suggestions that the bill
might be altered substantially to meet
objection Of its foes. From q Repub-
lican leader. who declined to be quot
ed, came a prediction that only 81
votes would be amassed against the
measure. Wheeler was equally opti-
mistic
While saying some rephrasing would
be made in the bill before it passed.
Wheeler declared there was no possi-
bility Of such sweeping changes being
written into the bill as we're urged by
the Advisory Council.
Under terms of the bill, certain
holding companies, notably the larger
ones, would be subject to reorganiza-
ton on regional basis or to dissolu-
tion by 1912.
The Advisory Councils report, pre-
pared by its committee on the hold
ing company bill, was critical of many
phases of the measure.
Bitter Attack Missing.
1t did not, however, contain the
bitter attack attributed to it in in
formal reports circulated since 1t vas
prepared more than a month ago.
1t proposed a gradual abolition Of
holding companies, asserting in their
favor that they have enabled the
financing of electric power projects at
lower costs of capital resulting in
lower rates to the public"
While concurrirg in the aim Of the
bill! to establish regionally integrated.
interconnected operating systems. the
council advocated that instead of
limiting holding company to control
Of one such regional system. it be per-
n,tted to control five or perhaps more
under Federal regulation.
The report contended that such.
wide ownership permitted a vastly
diversified and safer type Of security
for the public, assured experienced
able management, and would avoid
undue disruption of the industry. i'm
pairment of the credit of existing
holding companies, and unnecessary

not afford to open the question Of

we're begun I'VE never would get
through In time
so far" he asserted, 1--WE have
had no request from the President or
the Treasury for additional taxes. My
opinion is they will be unnecessary"
Several months ago when Congress
restored the last 5 per cent of the
Federal pay cut, President Roosevelt
warned that If his normal" budget
estimates for next fiscal year were ex-
ceeded. he would expect an increase
in taxes to balance the budget. Con-
gressional leaders, however, now say
they have found way to stay $50, ,000,-
600 or more under the normal"
budget.
Hill reiterated yesterday that even
though the bonus should be paid, he
did not believe it would be necessary
to raise additional revenue. The pres
ent increasing Federal deficit, he con-
tended, is being put into bonds ma
turing in the future. A bonus debt,
he asserted. could be similarly financed,
with present taxes raising enough to
meet interest and sinking charges.
BIocs May Trouble.
Although leaders apparently intend
to rush the new tax bill through with
out varying existing rates, they may
be caused some embarrassment by
blocs seeking changes. Pressure was
