WEEKLY REVIEW OF NEW ENGLAND
Shoe Production Went to Record High = Tenth
 Month as Leader

Boston, June 24-(UP)-Shoe pro- duction reached record-high for the tenth consecutive month in the New England district in April, Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. said today in It's weekly review of New England trade conditions.
 April output, reported by 387 fac- tories in the area. totaled l3,2lO,- 096 pairs, the largest number for that month on record. Massachu- sets showed 10 per cent gain over April 1936, and New Hampshire, IS per cent, while Maine shoe produc- ton dropped p per cent, largely result Of strike waged by the CLIO. union. Despite It's April lisscs, production in Maine was still 18 per cent over It's 1936 level for the first four months of the year.
 Consumption of apparel wools by Woolen and Worster mills in April was the highest of any April since 1923, and approximately 40 per cent above normal average of the last 10 years.
 The wool market was not quite so active thit past week but prices for the most part were steady and slightly firmer. Prices of fleece wools were little firmer. Spot western grown wools were mostly quiet.
 Spot foreign wools In Boston were quiet and quotations unchanged. Woolen goods continued quiet, and noils lacked activity. Spot carpet wools were in limited dehhand at unchanged prices, while business in wool tops was confined to small purchases for immediate require mcnts.
 Inactive goods trading in the cot ton market has been accompanied by a growing curtailment of cotton output. Some coarse goods plants are going in for four-day week.
 Consumption of cotton goods and finished merchandise is showing good progress, but prices have been easing during the recent lull. Most mills have orders to keep them go- ing many months, however.
 ANSW NuohACoo Siuo AOb OGCi tCLy brisk in local building materials houses. but there is hope for the ex- pansion in demand in the near fu- ture. Engineering and construction awards last week totaled $80,380,- 900, the highest weekly dollar volume since January Q, 1886. This was an 87 per cent gain over the previous week, and a 39' per cent increase over the corresponding week of 1936. During the same period, private contracts rose 179 per cent over the previous week and 30 per cent increase over the 1o38 week, while public construction gained 27 per cent from previous week, but drop ped % per cent form 1936. There is little demand for scrap iron the market entirely sustained by export demand. Collections continue good in retail, wholesale and manufac- turing lines.

Trace back almost any of our great democratic institutions, and 1t will lead you to New England. Think back to your gchoolbooks and remember how many of the great names and great events were New England. Plymouth for the very first beginnings of the nation; Boston, Lexington, and Concord; Bendict Arnold and his heroic 'rabble" marching to Que- bee through Maine; the Green Mountain boys; Roger Williams of Rhode Island.
 History is not only 6 matter of textbooks. In New England you will see hundreds of actual sou- venirs of earlier times. Great houses, churches, town halls, old roads Still survive from the time when they were the actual theater of history. Great names still abound-Bradford, Cabot, Adams, Saltonstali and Revere. There are battlefields and monuments throughout New England, each having real meaning in our his- tory, each giving you sudden sense of awe as you stand where, one or two centuries ago, heroes stood.
 Historic Sites
 All our history is not military, and New England harbors many site where great steps in educa- ton, religion, literature, and other arts were first taken.
 One visitor wrote, We stood on the steps of the church in Ply mouth late one Friday afternoon. A clock struck five--and history turned back 300 years. pU the street came the Pilgrim process sion: Miles Standish. Governor and the other colonists Silently they made their way to the site of the old fort on Burial Hill and there Elder Brewster read a passage of Scripture. The scene was dignified and impress sive. It did not seem as if we watched play. For the moment history was being lived before our very eyes"
 Such pageants arc. frequent oc- currences in New England towns. There have been numerous ter centennial celebrations In the last few years and there are more to come. Each of them Signalizes

Today marked the third anni- vcrsary of the -blooded slay- ing of Clarence Yuskis. p. and Julius Karvauskas, 45. in Wolcott. And today police were no nearer to apprehending the slayer, John Crow, Wolcott hermit, than they were the day after the crime when they searched futilely through the woods in Wolcott and Bristol.
 It was a hot Sunday afternoon, June 24, l034, that Crow, long noted for his eccentricities, drove along the Wolcott road toward the Yuskis home. Az he came to the farmyard, he halted his car and got out. Young Yuskis was seated in the front Of his car, and Crow fired a shotgun at him, then beat the youths lifeless body with the butt end of the gun. Karvaus- kas, a hired man, ran out from the barn across the road to see what was going on. Crow fired a, him and he fell, then the hermit fired more bullets in his body. Mrs. Yuskis came out from the farm house and Crow fired at her, the bullet grazing her head. Then the killer hopped Into his car and drove away.
 Dynamite Bombs
 He abandoned the car short distance down the road, near an- other road which led to the shack where he lived. When police searched his car they found two rude dynamite bombs.
 State police from all over Con- necticut converged on Wolcott. They headed for Crows shack and attacked it with riot guns and rifles. But Grow was not inside.

the woods for several days. But there was no sign of Crow. State police kept men on duty at the Yuskis home all summer long. but nothing was accomplished.
 There are still many angles that have never been thoroughly cx- plained. No sufficient motive for the slayings has ever been un- earthcd. There were stories that there was ill-feeling between Crow and young Yuskis but the YuskiS family has denied this. There is the possibility that Crow just went bcrserk. Tn that case 1t is hard to explain why Grow did not kill some of others whom he passed as he drove out WOlcott road that day.
 Conjectures
 As to how Crow escaped, that Is also difficult to answer. Some believe he walked across to Spin dc Hill after the crimes and eg- capcd through Waterbury. Or he could have gone through the woods to Bristol. Or. 1t is possible. he had another car parked where the one he abandoned and he escaped in that. And there are still many who believe that the hermit killed himself after the murders. and that his body has never been found, though this is hardly. probable.
 Where Crow is, If he Is aiove. no one knows. He could be anywhere on the globe. He could, for that matter. be still in Connecticut. State police say the case is still open. but 1t appears now that the mystery of Crows disappearance will never be solved.
