Falls Church Cabin
Ransacked by
Murderer

Shadows of a setting sun yester.
day hid the grim specter of death
that crept into the bleak dwelling
of an aged recluse in Falls Church,

Today, after an all-night search
for the slayer, Fairfax county au'
thorities, aided by a posse Of SO
armed men and women, were still
without single clue to the grue-
some murder of Truman Brush,
76-year-old farmer who had lived
alone in an isolated spot one-mile
off the Lee Highway for more
than Is years.
Although Brush only recently
had complained to neighbors of
his pinched circumstances, some
one apparently believed he had
boarded a great sum of money in
his dilapidated tWo-story log
cabin. Robbery, police believe,
was the only motive for the
Staying.

Bodies of Four
Are Taken
From Well

MAYBE, Mich, Aug. "a
G.N.SD.-From the bottom of a
farm well near here today had
been taken four bodies-the body
of an apparently crazed mother
and three children s-le had thrown
or pushed to their deaths.
At a neighboring farmhouse the
dumbfounded father was wander
ing distractedly, trying to forget
seeing his family pulled from
their 32-foot grave.
Mrs. Gulma Veerecke, 43, some
how managed to lure her chill
dren one by one to the top of a
half-opened we'll, then, as Monroe
county officers reconstructed the
scene, one child after another was
toppled into it.
The mother, Sheriff Barley
said, then apparently threw her,
self into the we'll.
How the children, Donald, IA,
Ralph, 6, and Patricia, S, were
brought to the scene remained
undetermined.
Mr.. Veerecke, At, said he first
sensed the tragedy when he re-
turned to the farmyard after
threshing. He said:
ut was too quiet; no children
shouting to me, and the cattle
my wife always brings into the
barn were still in the pasture.

Robinson R e b u k es
Pope for Predicting

International News Service

While Europe continued its slow
drift toward war today, Congress
took positive action to insure that
the United States shall stay out
of it.
Both houses adopted and sent
to the White House for President
Roosevelt's signature a resolution
declaring an embargo on ship
ment of arms and ammunition to
any European belligerents. The
embargo will extend until March
/, by which time Congress will be
back in session and ready to con-
slider the situation as it then will
exist.
The measure also fixes specific
limitations on the activities Cf
American citizens when foreign
nations are at war.
Two Dissenting Votes
The embargo resolution was
adopted in the Senate by vote
of II to 2 in an atmosphere of
tenSeness, almost reminiscent of
the days preceding Americas en-
trance into the World War.
Both Senators voting against
the resolution were Democrats,
Senators Gerry of Rhode Island
and Bankhead of Alabama.
From both Republican and
Democratic Senators came re-
peated warnings that the United
States wants no part in any Eu-
ropean conflict, and does not in
tend to become involved in any
of Europe's quarrels.

sas, the majority leader, even
"rebuked" Senator James Pinck-
ney Pope CD of Idaho, who is
now abroad, for declaring in an
interview with international News
Service yesterday in London that
he was fearful that any outbreak
of war abroad would involve the
United States.
Pope, said Robinson, spoke only
for himself. and not for the Ad'
ministration, nor for the Senate,
nor for the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee, of which the
Idahoan is a member. Pope
speaks for himself, Robinson
shouted in tones that carried out

clared passionately:
