Burgaw, June 30.-U.H The
14-month- old mystery of the dis
appearance of Paul Krochmalny
Polish farmer of the st. Helena
section of Pender county, may be
solved today at a preliminary
hearing for three men, one OF
them his brother, whom the state
charges killed Krochmalny and
cremated his body.
The three accused men who
faced a preliminary hearing IN
recorders court here today are
Pete Krochmalny, brother OF the
missing man; Paul Krochmalny
son of Pete, and Erwin Williams
step-son of Pete.
The two Krochmalnys have
been held in New Hanover coun-
ty jail in Wilmington and Will
liams has been held in Pender
county jail here since their arrest
June 18, nearly six weeks after
the st. Helena farmer disap-
peared.
All have steadfastly maintained
their innocence of the states al
legation that they killed Paul
Krochmalny because he discoV-
cred they had defrauded him out
of $1,000 in money orders.

younger Paul Krochmalny, neph-
ew of the missing man, obtained
the money orders through the
similarity of their names, and
that when their rightful owner
discovered the three had taken
his money, they killed him and
burned his body to conceal the
act.
The money orders have been
recovered and are expected to play
an important part in the states
case against the three men.
Solicitor John j. Burney and
others in charge of prosecution OF
the case have remained secretlVe
but it was learned that private
detectives working in Wilmington
have found bones alleged to be
those of the missing farmer.
Defense attorneys, however,
have limited that Paul Krochmal-
ny is still alive and that if the
case goes to trial they may be able
to produce him.
The Polish farmer disappeared
April 4, 1886. According to Pete,
his brother, he was last seen as
he crossed a ditch a short distance
from his Pender county farmhouse
and entered a thicket. No one has
been found who saw him emerge
on the other side.

ESCC Bought
2z5 Cars
Here
Government Purchase
Ended Last Night; IS
Per Cent Crop Sold

Upwards of $50 carloads OF
Irish potatoes were bought from
Pasquotank county growers yes
terday by the Federal Surplus
Commodities Corporation as gov
ernment purchase of spuds went
into the home stretch. The FSCC
closed out it's fiscal year at mid
night last night and ended its
purchasing of surplus spuds for
relief purposes at the same time.
Thomas Jackson, FSCC receiv-
ing agent, and Frank w. Hollo-
well, member of the county COM
mittee, spent hectic day yester-
day as growers from all over the
county sought to dispose of some
of their potatoes to the FSCC be-
fore the buying program closed.
There were around 100 carloads
of spuds offered to the FSCC here
Monday, Tuesday and wednesday
of this week, while the county S
allotment was only 156 cars.
FSCC purchases in this county
amounted to approximately 215
carloads of potatoes at prices of
$3.50 per barrel and 80 cents per
bag. Growers, when they received
their checks about two weeks
hence, should receive upwards of
100000 from the FSCC for their
potatoes.
Had it not been for the FSCC
purchases, the same growers prob
ably would have received $4,000
or less for the same quantity of
spuds.
1t was estimated yesterday that
approximately IS per cent of the
1887 spud crop in Pasquotank
county has been marketed, and
by the end of this week only about
five per cent of the crop will re-
main. The average price has been
around S1.4O, which is we'll below
the actual cost of production.

Fire Loss Is Held Down TO
SOC Per Capita
Loss for Year SlO,-

Elizabeth City's highly efficient
semi-volunteer fire department
held the local fire loss for the
1867 fiscal year down to $1O,-

erty at risk during the year was

The annual report, prepared by
Assistant Fire Chief Ken Davis
and released last night contains
many interesting facts.
For instance, during the year
the department answered a total
of 191 calls, consisting of 10 bell
alarms, 81 still alarms, nine first
aid calls in the city, six first aid
calls outside the city, 20 fires out

Total for Fiscal Year
Is S122,32O, So the
Records Show

Despite a dull June, construc-
ton in Elizabeth City for the
1867 fiscal year, which ended
yesterday, reached its highest to-
tai since 1929, a study of the
building permits records in the
office of City Manager j. B. Flora
diScloses.
The total for the 12-months'
period was S122,32O, of which only
$3.50 was instituted during June.
Building permits issued during the
previous fiscal year. that of 1885
So, totaled only $88,722, and the
total for the 1886 calendar year
was only $96,172.
June was a rather slow month,
in contrast to the busy month of
May, when IA permits totaling
$23,050 were issued. Only three
permits were issued during June,
one to the Love Bros, for a new
market on Front Street to cost
$4,000, another to A. L. Aydlett
for a garage to cost $3.50, and the
third to D. T. Bundy for a house
to cost $400.
Building permits issued during
the first six months of the calen-
dar year total $65,120, distributed
as follows: JAN, $4,000; Feb, S14,-
$50; Mar, $6,650; Apr $11,010;
May, $23,O50, and June, $3.50.
On the basis of this siX-months'
total the 1887 calendar year
should show about a 10 per cent
increase over the 1936-37 fiscal
year and a 60 per cent increase
over the 1886 calendar year.
The 100000 addition to the 10
cal post office for which no build
ing permit was required, would
have run the total up to close to
a quarter of a million dollars.

Dearborn, Mich, June 3O.-NU'D
Financiers are attempting to
force Henry Ford to "accpet an
outside party as a wage dictator
so that they may slash the pay
of their employees throughout the
couny,, the Ford Almanac, comp
any publication, charged tonight.
Homer Martin, president of the
United Automobile Workers Of
America, described the article as
some more typical Ford Motor
Company's ballyhoo."
EXpla ming the automobile
manufacturers attitude in the
present national labor situation.
the Almanac said that financiels
seek to have the Ford minimum
wage of $500 per day for eight
hours work reduced in order that
they may lower their pay scales.
Keeps Wages Up
"Ford's high wage is the one
and only thing that keeps wages
up all over the country" the ar
ticle said. If Ford should lower
wages-or should any law or
agreement restrict his freedom to
raise WageS-WageS would go
down all over the country"
With Ford paying S6-a-day,
the financiers also are forced to
pay high wages in their plants,
to attract labor. They want that
stopped. That's why t..ey are
again trying right now to force
Ford to do business their way"
The Next Step
The Almanac charged that
the true meaning of this drive
is to force Ford to accept an out
side party as a wage dictator for
Ford employees. Next step in the
game of the financierS will be
wage standardization. All plants
of the same kind will pay the
same wages. The skilled worker
