HOLD NEGRO IN
POISON Case
Robert Dunlap Said to
Confess Putting Poison
in Food

ASHEVILLE, Teb. 23.-Robert
Dunlap, 26-year-dd negro, con-
fesed to the polite this morning
that he placed potion in the drink
ing water and sausage served Sat-
urday night to seven persons in a
little four-room negro shack at SO
Black street.
Three persons died and four

plicated Mary Watson, SO, whose
blind and helpless mother and
three-year-old daughter were vic
Tins Of the poison. Dunlap has
been booked on a charge of muir
der, and the woman is being held
for completely in the crime, but
formal charges against her are
awaiting a completion of the in

FEDERAL NJUNCTIONS
HIT POWER SALES
Continued from page one)

continued from page OHeJ
IA North Alabama towns from re-
ceiving or expending PWA funds
for construction of municipal pow
er plants for the distribution of
IVA electricity.
The IVA had abandoned efforts
to buy the distribution plants from
the power company as originally
planned to avoid competition and
had advised the towns affected to
proceed with negotiations for the
PWA loans.
Judge Grub conceded that the
IVA had the authority to sell sur
plus power that accrued unavoid-
ably in connection with its flood
control and navigation work, but
that it was illegal for the govern
mental agency to create power
purely for the purpose of selling
it.
IVA attorneys had contended
that the production of power was
Incidental to the use of dams on
the Tennessee river for flood con-
troll and to improve navigation
and that revenue from sale of the
electricity was necessary to help
finance the principal work.
When Attorney VIM. C. Fits,
Jr., was arguing yesterday that
sale of the power would help liqui-
date the cost of dams which he
said the Authority was construct
ing primarily for flood control and
navigation improvements, Judge
Grub interrupted to say:
you're not going to liquidate,
You are proposing to go into the
power business permanently.
The judge drew a distinction
between the Twas program for
selling power TO municipalities
either to replace or in competition
with private utilities, and a pos
sible leasing of the power facili
ties to private companies.

FURTHER REVELATION is
MADE AS TO LETTERS

LONDON, Feb. 23.-(UP)-
Papers today published indirect
quotations from the two letters
left by Jane and Elizabeth Du
Bots, American girls who leaped
to death from a plane Thursday,
tending to show they decided to
commit suicide in this spectacular
manner following a crash in Sicily
which killed two British airmen
friends.
The Daily Herald said the let
tiers, to the parents of the girls,
U. S. Consul General and Mrs.
Coert Du Bots, at Naples, describe
preparations to end their lives
and die in the way their royal air
force friends died. This paper
said they referred to the greyness
of life after news of the liers'
crash in Sicily last week, and de-
clare all joy vanished with their
death.
The Daily Express says the let
tiers - supposedly kept secret
pending the inquest next Monday
reveal the girls, 20 and %,
were overcome with emotion. This
paper quoted one passage from a
letter to the mother, saying, eve
seem to be going around in cir
cles."
The News Chronicle adds to
this breach of secrecy around the
letters by saying it learns "from
a police officer" that the girls
stressed grief at the Sicily dis
aster and were unconsolable. This
paper adds that despite the ear
lier decision of the coroner in Es-
sex against a Postmortem. he or
dered one which revealed both
girls were in perfect health when
they died.
