IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, AS A
COURT OF EQUITY.
No. 8434 Equity.
The object of this bill is to pro-
cure a divorce of vimculo mGtY-i-
mont from the defendant. The bill
states in substance as follows:
/. That she is resident OF
Bethesda, in Montgomery County, in
the State of Maryland, and has been

preceding the filing of this suit. That
the defendant resides at Fair Cakes,
In the State of California, and is a
nonresident of Montgomery County,
in the State of Maryland.
2. That she and the defendant
were legally married on the 10Th
day of July in the year 1929, at
Maynard, Mass, by minister of the

a. That she and the defendant
lived together as husband and wife
until the 18th day of August, in
the year nineteen hundred and twen-
ty-nine, when the defendant, without
any just cause or reason abandoned
and deserted her. That said aban-
donment and desertion has been con-
tinuous and uninterrupted ever since,
is deliberate and final and the sepa-
ration of the parties is beyond any
reasonable expectation of a reconcilia-
ton.

MEXICO CITY, June 2 UN.S).

paralyzing nationwide strike Of

old. The President received q del

fenced to 20 years and q day IN
the State Penitentiary.
At about the same time last
year, the Bureau received q re-
volver and a bullet extracted from
the body Of a murder victim from
the Savannah, Ca, Police Depart
ment.
A colored woman had been
found shot to death in her home
and that two colored men present
during a party on the night Of the
murder had carried weapons.
At the scene Of the crime a re-
volver was found with one ex-
ploded cartridge in the chamber,
investigation led police to believe
that this weapon was not the
murder gun.
The revolver submitted to the
Federal Bureau Of Investigation
belonged to a colored man who at
one time served a sentence on q
prison farm for beating the mur.
dered woman.
SYSTEM WORKS AGAIN
To solve the tangle presented
by the existence Of two revolvers
in the case, the FBI brought its
ballistics expert into the picture.
The comparative microscope
revealed the revolver owned by
the suspected colored man was
the murder weapon.
When this information was
transmitted to the Savannah po-
lice, they requested that a FBI
expert come down to testify at
the trial, and that without such
testimony they could not hope
to obtain O conviction.
An expert was dispatched to
testif. at the trial. At the con-
clusion Of the trial, the jury,
after a few minutes deliberation,
returned a verdict Of guilty. The
murderer was sentenced to life
imprisonment.
