phorus. This was announced by
the French chemist, Dumas, a
teacher of the great Pasteur. With
this knowledge at hand and mind
full of Buchner's epigram, Louis
Agassi2. professor of natural his
tory at Harvard. argued that the
eating of fish would be good for
the brain.
Of course, the brain is developed
by any kind Of food and will pick
up what phosphorus it needs from
practically any diet. During the
time that the brain grows the
most rapidly, that is up to the age
of six years, the individual lives
very largely on milk and certainly
has very little fish in the diet.
1t would be just as sensible to
say that fish Is a good food to keep
you awake because fish never
sleep. AS a matter Of fact, they
probably do sleep, but their sleep
is the most primitive form among
vertebrates. It simply consists in
being perfectly still. They do not
close their eyes because they can't
and unlike human beings sleep,
their senses are probably alert.
But complete loss of motion in a
fish Is considered by psychologists
to be a form Of sleep.

Body of Ross Sought by C-Men
As Kidnaper Confesses Murder
AbductOr of Aged Manu-.
facturer Trapped at
Santa Anita Track.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18.-Relent-
less Department of Justice agents, at
the end Of a four-month manhunt,
marked the kidnap-slaying of Charles
S. Ross Of Chicago. solved" today as
they secretly whisked a man they said
was the confessed killer back to Chi
cago to stand trial.
j. Edgar Hoover, chief of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, announced
Peter Anders, 80, former logger, ad-
mitted he slew Ross two days after
$50,000 ransom was paid near Rock
ford, ILL.,, October 8, 1897, and then
shot and killed his confederate, James
Atwood Gray.
"a regular passenger airpaane
from Los Angeles carrying Anders
arrived at Memphis at 1l:15 am.
today. The plane is due to arrive
at Washington at $50 pm, taking
the prisoner on his way to Chi
cagoD
Anders was traced across the country
by trail of ransom bills he spent
lavishly at race tracks, Hoover said,
and last Friday was taken into custody
here at Santa Anita Park.
Agents recovered $l4,402.28 of the
ransom on Anders and at his hotel.
Hoover said.
A 27-page statement was made by
the prisoner, but not released to the
press, before he was started eastward
last night.
The bodies of Ross and Gray have
not been recovered, Hoover said,
adding:
I'VE are certain the bodies are not
in the State of Illinois, where the
actual murders took place. This fact
gave the Federal Government jurisdic-
ton in the case"
"Anders shot the two men through
the head, but all we can say for Ger
tain is that the killings took place
on the outskirts of Rockford, about
100 miles west of Chicago, and that
the bodies apparently were hidden
somewhere over the Wisconsin line"
A woman, 1t was learned, motored
here with Anders from New Orleans
last week, but Investigators absolved
