As U.S.. Race Wires
| Go Out of Service

CHICAGO, Nov. 16. CUP)-Hand-
book operators in the United States,
Canada and Cuba faced their worst
plight in Is years today when Ma
tionwide News Service, Inc, began
to dismantle its vast network OF
wires over which they received
horse racing information.
Attorneys for M L. Annenberg,
Philadelphia publisher and owner
of the corporation, said the dis
mantling would be practically COM
plete by noon today. He announced
Tuesday night that he would dis
band the service. He is under in
dictment on charges of evading in
come taxes and violating federal lot
terry laws.
U. S. District Attorney William
J. Campbell and States Attorney
Thomas j. Courtney had sent the
Western Union Telegraph, American
Telephone and Telegraph and Him
ois Bell Telephone companies a
warning to discontinue leasing
wires to Annenberg under threat
of prosecution for abetting an al
legged lottery. The companies had
agreed. Then Annenberg announced
he was shutting down.

States Mapping
Program Studied

SACRAMENTO, Nov. 16. (UP)-
The state planning board today took
action to renew contacts with fed
eral agencies in promoting uni
fled mapping program from Califor-
mia.
G. Deming Tilton, consultant for
the board, said that the war de-
partment forest service and agri-
cultural departments were making
detailed aerial maps of portions of
the state and that cooperation
from the state was advisable.
The board deferred action for a
month on report to Gov. Culbert
Olson outlining the need for a pro-
posed division of surveys and maps.
Only remaining question is whether
the division should be placed in the
Department of Public Works or Ma
tural Resources.
The report drafted an initial 10
year program of corporation with
federal agencies costing the state
about $155,000 the first year and
$270,0O0 each of the remaining nine
years. An advisory board would be
set up to coordinate mapmakine
activity of all state, county and city
groups.
Tilton mentioned that probably
$1O,OO0,OO0 has been spent on maps
by all agencies in California, many
being duplicates or unavailable
when desired by other agencies.
The planning board acknowledged

101 highway through San Diego

Blaze Reveals
Murder.SuiCide

DUNSTON, Me-, Nov. 16. CUP)-
Four bodies were found today in a
burned house, revealing what police
believed to be triple murder and
a suicide.
The victims were identified as:
William A. Rowe, about SIS, Mrs.
Ethel v. Rowe, about SIS, Arthur
Rowe, 13, and Clare Rowe, IL.
Police believed that all were killed
by bullets from a revolver, found
near the bodies.
The bodies were sprawled on the
kitchen floor. Mrs. RoWe's arms
were in a position as though she
were shielding her younger son.
The second sons body was huddled
near her and the fathers body lay
across that of his wife. The fire
was easily extinguished. Examina-
ton of the room revealed the re-
volver, from which several shots
had been fired.

LocaI Survey Shows
Turkey Prices Lower
Thanksgiving Bird
About Five Cents
Under Last Season

Tom turkeys will strut
the "last mile" this year for
a considerably less return
than they did last year, a
survey of Ell Centre meat
markets showed Thursday.
When turkeys paid with their
lives last Thanksgiving it was for
a price about five cents above the
20 to 25 cents a pound expected
this year.
In fact, turkey will be about a
nickle pound below that price
commanded by chickeni
Most of the factors that make
up the proverbial Thanksgiving din
ner will be down, the survey dis
closed. Celery prices at 10 cents a
big stalk are slightly under 1888.
Cranherries are selling for around
II cents pound, several cents
below the last mark.
Vegetables remain about the same
as last year.

The board authorized Kenneth
Fulton, deputy director of natural

ture which would give title to the
state on lands tax delinquent five

Because of previous gladness!
