JENNIE BOWEN
SHOP EXPANDS
To Celebrate 5th Annivers-
airy This Month; Another
Room Is Leased

Miss Jennie Bowen, who for
five years has been operating a
ladies' ready-to-wear business UNI
der the name Of Jennie Bowen,
Inc, in the Kirk building on Main
street and Fifth avenue, has leaS-
ed the adjoining storeroom now
occupied by j. II. Yclton and the
w. A. Keith company in order to
provide larger quarters for the
contemplated expansion program
Of her store.
Miss Bowen's business will OBJ
serve its fifth anniversary this
month. She opened small bust
ness with emphasis on millinery,
which she had conducted as a de-
partment of the Allen-Rollins
store. The business grew and
stocks and lines of merchandise
were enlarged from time to time
until it has become general out
filter for ladies with the excep-
ton of shoes.
Increasing trade from home
people and the surrounding towns
has made Miss Bowen confident
of a growth that justifies expan-
sion, hence the leasing Of adJoin-
ing quarters, which will double
the capacity of the store. The en-
larged quarters will have two
fronts but will be connected by
an opening in the present wall.

HUNT PISTOL
IN OLD DEATH
Investigators Active in Is.
Year-Old Murder of
Desmond Taylor

LOS ANGELES, May 8. CUP
Two Investigators went to Santa
Barbara last night to check up
on a missing pearl-handled revolv-
er as part Of the district attor-
ney's probe of the mysterious
murder Is years ago Of William
Desmond Taylor, noted motion
picture director.
The revolver was described to
the county grand jury yesterday
by Mrs. Charlotte Shelby, mother
of Mary Miles Minter, close friend
of the slain director. Mrs. Shell
by said Harry Eaves, a Santa Bar
bara jeweler, gave her the gun
for protection some time before
TAYLOR was shot to death. She said
she believed the gun was at her
home the day the director was
assassinated in his luxurious bum
galow and that it disappeared
some time later. She said she did
not recall what happened to 1t.
Nor did she know its calibre.
Deputy District Attorney Eu-
gene d. Williams was uncommun-
icative about the progress, if any,
of the latest inquiry. He refused
to identify the investigators he
sent to Santa Barbara or to dis
cuss their movements in any way.
The grand jury adjourned its
investigation of the case, for the
time being at least, after ques-
tioning Mrs. Shelby and her two
daughters, Miss Minter and Mrs.

ITALIANS STORM WAY
TO VANTAGE POINT

Copyright, 1887, United Prcss)
WITH THE NATIONALIST
ARMIES ON BILBAO FRONT,
May s. (UP).-Crack battallions
of the Italian Black Arrow divi-
sions stormed their way up the
last slopes of the Solluve range
last night and dragged heavy al
tillery into position to lombard
the harbor of Bilbao.
The Italians were landed at
Bermeo, under protecting guns OF
the rebel cruiser Almirante Ger
vera, and the destroyer Velasco.
Part of them hurried to relieve
thousands of their besieged COM
rades and others fought theri way
across the mountains to prepare
for the general attack no Bilbao.
Today rebel artillery was en-
placed in the entrenched noun
tain positions which Gen. Emilio
Mola captured.

SAFE CONDUCT
FOR REFUGEES
IS CONSIDERED
General Frances Offer of
Safety Zone Restudied
at London, Paris
WOULD CUT COSTS
OF HUMANE PROJECT

PARIS, May 8.-(UP).-Great
Britain and France will reconsid-
cr Spanish Rebel General Fran
cisco Frances offer Of a zone for
the safe conduct of women and
children refugees through the en-
circling insurgent troops around
Bilbao and will likely delay fur
thcr excavations of helpless Span
iSh residents until this program is
rcstudied.
As under Francois plan a neu-
trail safety zone would be created
for the passage Of the 100000
women and children that England
and France proposed to evacuate,
the cost Of this mass movement,
which is tremendous, could be re-
duccd, it is believed. This has
brought about denomination of
Frances earlier proposal.
Meanwhile, the arrival of the
first two refugee ships at La Pal
ice with $500 passengers aboard
taxed French relief services. The
attention of 600 physicians was
required to care for the refugees.
Decision to reconsider Frances
plan repeatedly was reduced after
additional rebel successes on the
Basque front showed that insur-
gent guns soon would be in posi-
ton to shell Bilbao harbor.
The Basque government has
asked that at least 100000 other
women, children and aged be re-
moved so Bilbao can withstand
siege. Such a mass evacuation
would require 100 trips such as
that made by the Spanish steamer
Habana and the GoizekO lzarra IN
taking the 1862 refugees to La
Pallice.
The Quai D'Orsay's press bu-
rcau announced that France had
agreed with British Foreign Sec
rotary Anthony Edcn's insistence
that an international inquiry
should be made into the destruc-
ton of Guernica, the Basque
"Holy City," Eight hundred men,
women and children were slaugh-
tered there April 81, allcgedly by
German planes piloted by German
hicrs.
"Eden's speech in commons de-
manding an inquiry finds a SYM
pathetic audience among French
diplomatic circles" a government
spokesman said. at certainly
would be desirable that such an
investigation be made, not so
much with the purpose of causing
trouble by determining who de-
stroyed that town, but to prevent
such destruction occurring in
Europe again in the future"
