After Woman Gives
Baltimore Police Clue
BY the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, April 18.-Pathol.
ogists were called in today to begin
a gruesome, piecemeal reconstruc.
ton Of the dissected body of an un.
identified young woman believed to
have been butchered by a killer
skilled in anatomy.
Judge Emory H. Niles said DR..
Charles w. Wood, coroner, who had
objected to high falutin'" methods,
had agreed to accept the co-opera-
ton of DR.. Frank B. Kindell, City
Hospitals pathologist, and DR.. c. G..
Warner, University of Maryland
pathologist. "in order to uncover, if
possible, any evidence of crime"
Police still were without any clue
to the identity OF the victim, parts
of whose body have been picked up
in sewers in East Baltimore since
Friday. Only the head and parts
Of the upper torso remained to be
found today.
A search for a brown sedan was
begun after Mrs. Bernardine Brock
meyer, a housewife, reported seeing
occupants of the machine dump a
aper-wrapped bundle in a sewer
where sections of the body were
found three hours later Friday
night in an East Baltimore neigh
borhood
"A smart murderer wouldn't even
have chosen that part of Baltimore
to dispose of the body" said Detec-
tive Capt. John A. Cooney. He
would have thought of the fact
that children play in the streets all
the time and climb down the
sewers"
Most of the grim evidence has
been found by young boys.
"A man who would do thing like
this would stop at nothing to keep
the corpse from being identified"
Capt. Cooney added. HE might
have buried the head"

Common sense teaches us that
no where in this life. is there such
thing as something for moth
ing. Everything must be paid for
by some one, some time, some place.
Every program, every scheme that
attempts to give something Of value
to some one with nothing given by
the recipient in return means that
some one else will be called upon
to pay for it. It might be well to
hold this in mind as new plans
are presented for the restoration of
prosperity to this country. It is no
more than right or fair that one
stop long enough to ask how is this
20 be paid for, and who will be
called on to pay it?
