curriculum, designed to fit the needs
of each individual student, Staun-
ton has the advantage Of military
training which is designed to de-
velop self-reliance, efficiency and

school activities and his fairness
and good comradeship among his
fellow cadets.
The scholarship is one which is
coveted eagerly by many youths,

tition and facts about Stanton will

WASHINGTON, April 27-Ob-
viously agitated by the worldwide
speculation in silver touched off by
the Administration silver policies,
government financial experts today
gave their undivided attention to
moves to bring order to chaotic
world markets.
The rapidly rising market price Of
silver, propelled upward by the gov
ernment's increased price to domes-
tice producers, was having near dis
asTous effects in such silver coun-
tries as Mexico and China.
The Mexican government last
night called in all silver coins in cir
culation which will he replaced with
currency and copper coins. The
silver market had passed the point
where it would be profitable to melt
silver pesos into bullion.
China Lodges Protest
Protests from Chinese govern
mental and financial leaders con-
tinued.
Mr.. Morgenthau called Senator
Pat McCarran ID, New, one OF
the leaders of the senatorial silver
bloc. into conference.
Secretary Morgenthau later an
nounced that the Treasury would
make no change in its silver price
over the weekend.
Mr.. Morgenthau's statement was
interpreted as meaning that the
Treasury was still considering new
course of action with respect to sill
yer and that the present status quo
would be maintained until definite
policy was determined.
Prices rose in world markets yes
terday and in New York reached 81
cents an ounce. The London price
was 1885 cents. The Treasury now
pays 77.57 cents an ounce to domes-
tic producers and heretofore has
kept the domestic price a little
higher than the world price
Mr.. Morgenthau misunderstood
to be considering and discussing
three alternatives.

plan and the payment to domestic

Some observers believed the world
silver markets had gotten out of the
hands of the United States govern
ment and that foreign spectators
had purchased large silver stocks and
were holding them for the $129 an

TUCSON, Ariz., April 27.-The
June Robes kidnap case moved a
step nearer solution this afternoon
when it was learned the govern
ment's &c" men had definitely
identified the writer of the ransom
notes.
The United Press learned that
the new suspect in the Robes case
the nations only unsolved kid
naping-iS a clerk employed in
Tucson.
Identification of the ransom note
writer was made through COMPARE
son of printing on an application
blank filled out by the clerk, prior
to the kidnapping, with the ransom
notes.
PhotOstatic Copies Made
Department of Justice agents
have made photostatic copies of
the printing and will present them
to the Federal grand jury which
will meet here Monday to hear new
evidence in the year-old kidnapping
case, the United Press informant
said.
Federal agents declined to discuss
the reported identification, but re-
ports have been circulated widely
that startling new evidence has been
gathered by the Department of JUS
tlce, ready for presentation to the
grand jury.
The new disclosure was revealed
to the United Press by a govern
ment official not connected with the
Department of Justice. He said
Federal agents definitely linked the
suspect with the crime after making
a microscopic examination of the
two specimens of handwriting.
Only One Arrest
Only one arrest has been made in
the Robes case since the child
granddaughter of a wealthy Arizona
cattleman, was abducted while
walking home from school.
Oscar Robson, Tucson "playboy
ana former night club owner, was
taken into custody shortly after the
child was found in a desert tor
ture prison., and was held under
100000 bond.
Robson's bond later was reduced
to $4,000 and a grand jury sum
moned to hear evidence against the
suspect, halted its inquiry and ord
cred agents to continue their inves-
tigation.
The Robes girl was found 1e
days after she was kidnapped. A
letter, mailed in Chicago, directed
searchers to her desert prison. The
letter was mailed after the kidnap-
ers, who demanded $4,000 ransom
failed to make ransom contracts
with her parents.

zarre story on a love triangle" was
Sifted by police today as they at
tempted to uncover motives in a
murder mystery in which two per-
sons were killed and a third was
wounded, perhaps fatally.
Investigators pursued new leads
which they said may change the
entire complexion Of the Staying of
Paul Wharton, young motion pic

chauffeur, William M. Howard, one
time United States Naval Academy
student.
Police pressed search for H. c.

Whartons murder and Howard S
suicide.
Film Colony is Shocked
McDermitt, only living witness 70
the shooting, was believed to have
fled to San Diego and the MeXi-
can border.
The film colony was shocked as
the investigation, at first directed on
the theory the murder followed a
financial dispute between the young
designer and Howard, disclosed a
strange quarrel between the two
men, over McDermitt, the sailor.
Police believed that Wharton and
Howard quarreled bitterly and the
chauffeur, in a rage, fired three
shots into Wharton's chest and fed
through a window.
Panic Stricken Sailor Flees
Then he went to the apartment
of Henry E. Bolte, law professor and
friend of Towards, and fired two
bullets into Bottles back, attempted
to flee and then turned the gun on
himself, firing one bullet into his
brain.
McDermitt, meanwhile, was be-
lieved to have become panic-strick-

and to have fed.
Bolte, near death in a hospital,
at first denied he knew Howard, but
later admitted he and the former
Annapolis student were acquaint-
ances and police learned there had
been financial transactions between
them.
Police learned that Wharton and
Howard became acquainted several
years ago when the dress designer
was said to have been known as a

BRITAIN AND FRANCE ALARMED
Versailles Treaty Military
Clauses Dead, High
Hitler Aids Say.
WARN ENGLISH AIRMEN
Planes Flying Over Reich to
Face Severe Penalties,
London Told.

~ tHtttd FfcSS
LONDON, April 27.-Ger-
many has advised Great
Britain Of her intention of
building a fleet of submarines
and it was understood tonight
that French and British rep
resentatives would confer
probably next week on this
latest Reich violation of the
Versailles treaty.
Francois Pietri, French minister
of marine. will come to London next
week, ostensibly to attend the mar
riage of the daughter of Sir Bolton
Eyres- Monsell. flrst lord of the adj
miralty.
But it was learned that Pietri
and Sir Bolton will exchange views
on the German naval expansion
plans, which aroused grave con-
Germ in the British Isles.
| 1t was revealed officially at the
same time that Germany has
warned British aviators to keep
away from prohibited areas under
pain of severe penalty.
Supplementing information as to
the submarine plans, it was learned
from German quarters that the Ger
man notification was made to the
British government at Berlin yes
terday.
U-BOats Absolutely Forbidden
Submarines are absolutely for
hidden Germany by treaty. Such
construction would mean that Ger
many has openly violated all the
military clauses-army, air and
navy.
The warning to aviators was in
| terpreted as a blunt demand that
foreign airmen keep away from the
areas where Germany is preparing
its big army and its air force.
News of this warning came from
the air ministry in a warning to
dviators which said:
Official notification has been re-
ceived that United Kingdom air.
craft have recently infringed regula-
lions when flying over German ter
ritory, and pilots are warned that
severe measures are likely to be
taken in case of any further in
! fringement."
Follows French Warning
Pilots were reminded that before
going abroad they should acquaint
themselves with all flying reguIa-
tons of the countries they purpose
| to visit.
1t followed the French warning Of
/ yesterday to German airmen that
any planes which flew over the
secret fortified area on the German
French frontier would be reminded
of their trespass by blank shots from
antl-aircraft guns and if they did
not race for home soil, would be
forced down by special combat units.
Germany today denied that any
planes had flown over the area men,
toned except by accident.
