MRS. WARREN
RETURNS FROM
JACKSONVILLE
ALSO MAKES TRIP TO WEST
PALM BEACH; ATTENDED
SESSION OF PLANNING AS.
ISOLATION

Mrs. William r. Warren return
ed last evening from Jacksonville
where she attended a meeting of
the Southeastern Planning Asso-
citation on Monday and later went
to the District Board of Social
Welfare meeting held in West
Palm Beach on Wednesday.
At this meeting there were %
applications for old age assistance
and one rejected. Other applica-
tions are to be considered at the
meeting to be held on October FL,
it was shown.
DR.. Carl N. German, chairman
of the District 10 board made the
statement that Florida is the only
state in which the county commits
sioners are matching federal funds
for old age assistance under the
Social Security Act. Of course, as
has been explained, this is only a
temporary plan lasting through
next July when the State Legisla-
ture will be given the opportunity
to appropriate funds.
Action by the legislature will
depend upon ratification of the
amendment to the state constitu-
ton which is to be voted on by the
people of Florida November 3.
Asked about the meeting of the
Planning Association, Mrs. War
rem said there were two sessions
held, each of which was very in
teresting with some of the best
speakers in Florida giving adj
dresses.
The first meeting was attended
by Governor Dave Sholtz of Flor
ida and Governor-Elect Rivers, of
Georgia, each of whom made ex-
cellent talks. The other meeting
was attended by c. B. Treadway,
chairman of the state road depart
ment, and E. A. Pynchon, Florida
PWA administrator.
After the talks by the various
speakers, said Mrs. Warren, the
subject matter of the discourses
would be discussed from every
ang.e, and these discussions
brought out many points which
were not only highly interesting,
but also enlightening.
Mrs. Warren said that two of
the outstanding incidents of the
series of meetings were the talks
made by Frederic A. Delano,
chairman of the Advisory Commit
tee of National Resources Com
mittee, and an uncle of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, who presided at
the banquet, and that of Land
marks and Signposts, a Talk of
Tropical Planning" delivered by
George E. Merrick, chairman of
the Dade County Planning Coun-
Gil.
Following his talk Mr.. Merrick
was extended an invitation to
come to Key West, and expressed
his pleasure at the invitation, say
ing he would come here some time
in the near future.

Washington, July 29.-Congressman
William Lemke of North Dakota,
speaking as the Union party's presi-
Dental candidate before the National
Press club recently made an unex-
pectedly moderate talk.
The Dakotan should not be assess

He may be bit fanatical but he
is a politician, too.
He recognizes the difference be-
tween an audience of the faithful Ca
mixture of faiths but brimful of sin

of hard+boiled newspapermen in
Washington.
He adapted himself to Press club
conditions and did it remarkably well.
DESIRES TOWNSEND SUPPORT
Of course Lemke wants the support
of the Townsendites.
He also wants the support of the
Coughlinites, whose leader has pro-
nounced Townsendism as plain eco
nomic foolishness.
He could do this in Cleveland,
where every speaker Except Norman
Thomas) was cheered, whatever he
said He knew he could not be on both
sides at once before the National
Press club and he didn't try. He side
stepped very cleverly.

The seacoast city of San Sebastian
trembled under renewed cannonading
today and a Spanish government SUBJ
marine was reported sunk by a rebel
seaplane as fresh drives for control in
SPANS civil war were launched by
Fascists and loyalists.
To speed in crushing the revolt, now
in it's twelfth day, the government
initiated a purge of it's enemies from
within.
State departments and the army
were swept Of any one suspected of
friendliness to the Fascist cause.
To wipe out teachings which leftists
considered reactionary and inimical
to their cause, the government or
dered the confiscation of all remain
ing Catholic schools, colleges and uni
versities.
AS liberals marched on Fascist
areas, the government claimed the re-
volution had collapsed. Yet Fascist
commanders predicted the fall of
Madrid with completion of a military
maneuver with intention to drive a
wedge between the strategic and left
ist-held cities of Barcelona and
Mafrid.
Two lighthouse officials at Gibral-
tar reported they witnessed the sink
ing of the government submarine C-3

Leftists still dominated the Guadar-
rama mountains, the gateway to
Madrid. But loyalists began to admit
the fight would last longer than they
had anticipated when the rebellion
began.

The Withholding of the major part

question in some quarters whether
the steel corporation, with profits de-

to rebuild it's shrunken surplus de

Two Hours After Girls
Body Was Found;' Says
Northumberland, Still In
Jail, Holds Key to Mystery
If He Will Talk

Asheville July 20 (AP)-Sheriff
Laurence E. Brown today renewed
his prediction that the Helen Clev-
enger Murder mystery, now almost
two weeks old, would be solved.
1--WE are still going to solve this
case," he said. cts going to be very
difficult job, and it may take a long
time"
The officer blamed much of the diff
ficulty on the fact that his office was
not notified until almost two hours
after the body of the 18-year-old girl
was found shot and beaten to death
in her Battery Park hotel room here
the morning of July 16.
Brown disclosed that H. G.. Rich
ardson, of Charlotte had told him of
seeing a stranger dash from the
fourth floor of the hotel about 1 a. m.
the time the girl is believed to have
been killed on the second floor, but he
said he attributed little Importance
to the statement.
Explaining why he was inclined to
minimize this information, the She
riff said:

que connected with the Clevenger
case was going on in the hotel that
night"
Brown indicated efforts were being
made to contact every person known
to have been in the hotel.
Meanwhile, one prisoner remained
in the Buncombe county jail in con-
nection with the case. He is Daniel
Gaddy, the 28-year-old night watch
man at the hotel.
Sheriff Brown reiterated he did not
believe Gaddy had any direct connec-
ton with the crime but added, Hes
