HOME BUILDING
RECOVERY IS SEEN
F. W. Dodge Statistician
Says 1886 to Mark Real

The budding recovery In the realm
Of residential building should come
into bloom during 1885 and the years
beyond. in the opinion Of L. Seth
Schnitman, chief statistician Of F. w.
Dodge Corp. expressed yesterday In
talk before the student body OF the
Army Industrial College here.
In the course Of his remarks Schnit-
man stated:
ut is no longer Of moment to
argue, In the fog, the causes be-
hind the current improvement in resi-
dental building. The awakening OF
this somnolent sector Of our economy
is real, 1t is visual. Though spotty it
may be seen throughout the country.
It is Of even greater importance that
we recognize this recovery as only in
the budding stages. probably to bloom
and flower In 1886 and the years to
follow.
Building is still the keystone in the
arch Of business. Without genuine re-
covery, here. there can be no sustained
advance in other segments Of our
economic life. Now that residential
building revival has been sighted, 1t Is
reasonably safe to conclude that the

the tangled skein of Chester Corners

Okla. to view the body-found by a
farmer and his son while clearing
underbrush from a roadside gully.
When Chester Conner died in an
Oklahoma City hospital three weeks
ago, muttering "bodies-piles of bod
les" authorities believed he took with
him the key to the disappearance OF
five persons.
The buIlet-torn, decomposed body of
Ray Evans, Shawnee, Okla, attorney,
was unearthed by dogs from shallow
grave near Lindsay, Okla. early this
week. Evans disappearance Novem-
ber 10, while on motor trip to see
a client precipitated the search for
Conner, a gun-hashing hitch-hiker.
Earlier the body of a young woman
found in Wyandotte County, Kans.,
more than year ago had been identi-
fed definitely as that Of Corners first
bride.
CIaud Tyler and Bill Ridge, Okla
homa County evidence men, said the
body found near here today fits to-
general description Of Corners second
wife. She has been missing since
August.

and possibly several more.

There have been nine other deaths
recently that may have been from the

illnesses of those who came in contact
with the dead that any or all Of the
nine deaths may have been caused
by it."
Nine illnesses in the county Of 29, $50

Two other cases, not definitely dag

Business men, workers and farmers
accepted the quarantine quietly. Mer-

expecting this week end to be one OF
the biggest Of the Christmas season
regretted the wholesale shutdown
They were quick, however, to urge
strict observance Of the quarantine.
