WOODSTOCK, Va. July 6.
Woodstock'S women defenders of
the trees on this towns main
street were dealt a blow yesterday
when Judge Phillip Williams dis
solved the temporary injunctions
he granted to prevent the State
Highway Department from cut
ting down the trees to widen the
highway.
Mrs. Phineas V. Stephens, sis
ter of Federal Judge Ferdinand
Pecora, of New York, and Mrs.
Lorraine French Brown, who at
tracted nationwide attention by
sitting in one of her trees until
the temporary Injunction was
granted, were leaders of the fight
to spare the trees. They held
little hope of appealing the case,
and it seemed today that Wood
stocks tall trees were doomed.

Philadelphia Public Enemy
No. | Hunted as Suspect
In Double Murder

Police today believed they were
on a hot trail to the solution of
the Chevy Chase car barn MUIR
der of January 81.
Washington, Baltimore and
Philadelphia police and Depart
ment of Justice agents were
spreading a net for TONY the
Singer" Cugino, Philadelphia
gunman who is listed as that
citys Public Enemy No. /.
While police will not disclose
what other information they
have linking the Philadelphia
underworld character to the dou-
BILE shooting here, they have de-
clared he was in this area up to
the time of the shooting.
Maryland police, who have re-
lentlessly worked on the case. are
known to have made several trips
to Philadelphia recently to obtain
information on Tony the
Singer"
The car barn double Staying re-
suited in the death of James M.
Mitchell, Sc, a depot clerk and
Emory Smith, AZ, Waterman at
the barn. The slayer escaped with
$1,000, the week end receipts.
A trail of blood in the snow led
to the discovery of Mr.. Smiths
body, while Mr. Mitchell's was
found lying beside his desk.
Shortly after the Shootings,
four persons were arrested but
were released after questioning.
Federal agents, who have been
working with the police of the
three interested States, are be-
lieved to have developed evidence
connecting the Philadelphia gun
men with the Chevy Chase Stay
ing.
1t has been learned that Cugino
was in Philadelphia shortly after
the double Staying here. He ap-
peared to have money.
According to police records,
Cugino is alleged to have killed
two men and two girls in Down
ington, Pa, about a year ago. and
he also is wanted in st. Louis,
Chicago and San Francisco.

HOLLYWOOD, July 6 G.N.S).
Robert Thomas, young screen
actor. today continued planning
trip to Dorchester, Mass, to
visit May Yohe, famed stage &C

mother a few days ago.
Statements of Capt. John A,
SHUTS. husband of Miss Yohe,
that Thomas is not the secret
son of the actress, left the youth
and his foster mother, Mrs. E. R.
Thomas, unruffled. Mrs. Thomas
said:
"The captain simply doesn't

YOhe's life later and she kept
her secret from him as we'll as

Al and the latter at 5-3, to
take, the lead. However, Mrs
Moody won the fourth game at
love, to carry the issue to 2-all.
Miss Jacobs won the fifth game
at a, to take the lead in games
at to 2. She had amazing con-
troll of length and pace and
seemed to have Mrs. Moody on
the run, the former champion
seeming to lack some of her &C
customed drive and speed.
This seemed even more evident
in the sixth game, for here Miss
Jacobs stood off rally after rally
after the points had gone to deuce
and then outfenced Mrs. Moody
to carry over the game points,
leaving Miss Jacobs only two more
games for set and match.
This looked very certain as Miss
Jacobs again outsteadied the other
Helen to take the seventh game,
a long deuce affair, and lead in
games of to 2. Mrs. Moody, al
ways the fighter, managed to call
upon all her resources in the
eighth game and stood off what
seemed to be impending defeat by
winning the game at A. This
made the game score S to 3 in
favor of Miss Jacobs.
Continues Rally
This meant the latter couldn't
lose without being carried into
deuce games. But this possibility
began to loom large as Mrs. Moody
continued her rally through the
ninth game, which she won, max
ing the game score to 4. She
again was hitting out with all her
drive and pace here, her Smashes
tearing at the turf in Miss Jacobs
rear court with such speed the
latter was forced to yield the game
points after deuce was called three
times.
Whereupon Mrs. Moody showed
her real greatness by taking the
tenth game for the loss of only
two points, making the score sail.
Mrs. Moody next made it four
games in a row in the eleventh,
making the score 6-5.
Mrs. Moody, turning in the
greatest comeback ever achieved
by a woman in the history of
sports, climaxed her return to play
here by taking the opening set at
6-3, Keeling off the first three
games with beautiful tennis; then
standing off Miss Jacobs rally
to come on again and take the set
by winning the seventh, eighth
and ninth games after Miss Jacobs
had carried the count to Sail.
However, the younger Helen
promptly won the second set at
6-3. forcing the issue into a
third and final set.

Behind her own delivery, Mrs.
Moody dropped the first point of

Companies Tangled in Affairs
Under Senate Probe
International News Service


The dazzling spotlight of a Sen
ate railroad investigation swung
through Wall Street today, and
held the giant banking empires of
j. P. Morgan and Kuhn, Loeb
clearly within its beam.
Transportation Coordinator JOS
eph B. Eastman selected the rail
roads to be investigated, under a
resolution passed by the Senate,
providing $4,000 for the inquiry.
Mr.. Eastman advised the Senate
Interstate Commerce Committee
chairman, Senator Burton K.
Wheeler 3D., of Montana, of his
selections. This committee will
carry out the investigation.
Some of the railroads selected
were reported in good shape,
financially; others were in re-
ownership or bankruptcy. Through
out the financial structure of al
most every one there was written,
according to Mr.. Eastman, the
name of Morgan or Kuhn, Loeb.
Eighteen railroads were selected
by Mr.. Eastman for investigation.
They are:
st. Louis-San Francisco, Rock
Island, Missouri Pacific, Chicago
& North Western, Chicago, Mil
waukee, st. Paul & Pacific, Kan
sas City Southern, Chesapeake &
Ohio, Erie, Nickel Plate. Pere
Marquette, Chicago & Eastern
Illinois, Pennsylvania, Wabash,
Delaware & Hudson, Illinois Cen
trail, Southern. Central of Georgia
and Florida East Coast.
Banking to Be PrObed
Mr.. Eastman cited the banking
circumstances of the roads Sc
lected as the most important
phase of the inquiry. Then he
continued:
"The two leading interests
to be considered in this cOnnec-
ton are ]. p. Morgan & Co.,
and Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and
affiliated financial institutions.
"There are others, such as
Speyer g. Co., J. and w. Selig-
man & Co., Hayden, Stone &
. Co., and Dillon, Read & Co.,
which have played lesser parts"
Organizations Eyed
Senator Wheeler's comment on
the letter was that investigators
have already started their work,
and a blunt assertion that he be-
lieves vicious financial manipula-
tions with an eye to Wall Street
and speculation could be blamed
for the railroads troubles. He
said he hoped to be able to post
pone hearings until cool weather
Senator w h e e + complained
that financiers have made deter
mined efforts for railroad reor-
CARNATIONS to keep control in the
hands of interests which had it
of old. He declared
"This committee intends to
keep very watchful eye on
the reorganizatiOns now 60

lead in points at 30-15 with a
beautiful backhand and finally
took the game on a dazzling low
volley from the net completely out
of her rivals reach.
Noticeably slowing up the pace
of her service, Mrs. Moody was
soundly trounced in the fifth
game at love, Miss Jacobs rush
ing the net after a long rally for
a perfect kill.
Miss Jacobs then served beau.
tifully through the sixth game,
making due use of a forceful fore
hand to keep Mrs. Moody on the
run. The latter seemed to be tir-
ing and lost the game at love, but
came right back to take the
seventh in a series of prolonged
exchanges and then took the
eighth, a and the lead in
games at 5 to 3.
The seventh game was the big
"convincer" of the set. Mrs.
Moody quickly going out to the
lead behind a blazing service at
40-love. However, Miss Jacobs
rallied to take it to deuce with
cut shots barely a foot above the
turf.
Accuracy Tells
Then from the base line, they
stood and exchanged shot for
shot until Mrs. Moody finally
finished off the rally with an
amazing volley from the net.
However, it went back to deuce
seven times, but in the end Mrs.
Moody's accuracy told and she
finally took the game to go def
nitely ahead.
The eighth was easier, Miss
Jacobs being outhit to lose the
first point and then driving out
of court to lose the second. Mrs.
Moody's deep forehands seemed to
have the other Berkeley girl in
distress at this time but The rallied
to take the score to 30-40 with a
beautiful corner placement. Then
Miss Jacobs netted the next to
lose the game.
Mrs. Moody lost the first point
of the ninth but Miss Jacobs over
hit three forehand smaShes. She
pulled herself together to storm
the net and volley out of the
others reach on the next point
but an error by Miss Jacobs fin.
ally brought the set to a close.
Thus encouraged, Mrs. Moody
won the opening game of the
second set after the points had

VATICAN CITY, July 6.-Pope
Plus XI has personally branded
as "shame1essly immoral and with
affirmations of errors often i'm
pious and blasphemous," the new
book by Gabrielle D'Annunzio,

one hundred, and one hundred
pages of wOuld-be suicider Ga

soldier-poet life and loves, was
placed on the "black list" by the
Osservatore Romano, official news

The Pope's decree was issued
through the Supreme Sacred Con

In his new book, D'Annunzio
writes a detailed analysis Of his
love for and life with the great
Italian tragedienne, Eleanor Du2e
1t took, said D'Annunzio, eight
years to write it and is in three
parts; an introduction, an auto
biographical chapter, and a dis
sertation on death by suicide.
The second part of the book
ends at the point where D'Annun-
zio decides he has lived fully
enough and long enough and de-
cldes to take his own life.
He changes his mind and devel-
ops in poetic language a discuss
