PHILADELPHIA, Dec. ia
newspaper puzzle contest returned
a murder charge instead of a prize
award today for 35-year- old
mother. who Detective Capt. James
Ryan said, confessed suffocating her
20-month-old son, saving up his
body and hiding the torso wrap
ped in the newspaper, near ceme-
terry.
Capt. Ryan quoted the woman,
Mrs. Tillie Irelan, as saying she
smothered the baby last Wednes-
day night with a blanket and pill
low. For two days the body lay
hidden in closet of her room at
boarding house. Saturday she
bought saw, dismembered the boy
and carried the torso to the ceme-
terry, a block away.
She told police she had been sep
arated from her husband for eight
years. Unable to obtain steady work
as children's governess, she said
she decided she could not raise the
boy Capt Ryan also quoted her
as saying the boy interfered with
her work and kept her from attend
ing parties.
Mrs. Irelan's appearance before
Coroner Charles H. Hersch last night
followed only "a hours after a mo-
torist. attracted by a bundle in a
street gutter. found the torso. De-
tectives later found the missing head,
arms and legs packed neatly in a
small suitcase in the rooning house
closet, awaiting disposal.
Pencil impressions of a name and
address, written under a picture puz-
zle in the newspaper covering the
torso, led detectives to the woman.
All except the words "Tillie" and
"1750" we're obliterated.
After scientific efforts to bring out
the unreadable parts failed, detec-
tives made a house-to-house check
of ali homes bearing the number
"1750," until they located Mrs. Ire
Ian.
Taken to police headquarters for
questioning, Capt. Ryan said she
said, well, I guess I might as we'll
tell you all about it. I did it. That's

Increase in Prices
Looms al Federal
Lunchrooms
Higher Operating Costs
Will Force Step,
Trustees Believe

The $4,000 Government employees
who eat daily in cafeterias and
lunchrooms operated by the Welfare
and Recreational Association may
have to add a few cents to the
lunch item on their budgets.
A sharp increase in operating
costs, occasioned by higher labor
expenses under the recently ap-
proved union contract. was noted
yesterday by the association Board
of Trustees, and an announcement
followed that part of the increase
may have to be absorbed by the
consumers.
Capt. F. w. Hoover. superintend-
ent and general manager of the as
sociation, pointed out today that on
the basis of the first month of oper-
alton under the new contract with
Cafeteria Workers Union of the
Congress of Industrial Organiza-
tlons the annual increase in ex-
penditures would amount to s2o 900,
several thousand dollars higher than
the negotiation estimates.
At the same time, a necessary
change in milk contracts raised
operating costs even higher, Capt.
Hoover stated.
I'VE already were operating under
narrow margin of profit" he COM
mented. "and this increase prob
ably will put us in the red"
The board decided to make no
changes for at least two more
months. If an increase in con-
sumer prices becomes necessary
later. Capt. Hoover said, adjust
ments OF a few cents in some food
items probably will cover it.
