Home Rule Due
On Ballot Again
Times star Correspondent

LANSING, March The
question of home rule for Wayne
County may again be submitted to
the voters at the next general
election, it appeared today.
A resolution placing the ques-
ton, defeated at the last election,
on the ballot was approved for
passage today in the Senate.
Senator Arthur +. Wood CRY of
Detroit said the proposal was the
same as the one submitted last
fall, but with the provision calling
for a nonpartisan election of
county officers eliminated.
He said this was the cause OF
the defeat because incumbent Off
Gals fought against it. If adopted
a l9-member commission would
draw up a charter for Wayne
County, permitting a general
streamlining of government and
reduction of the bulky 162-member
board of supervisors.

because of such mistakes.

Corpl. Maoma Little Ridings once
lived in Washington, according to
Corpl. J. A. Hawkins of 1901 Long

Mrs. Ridings lived with CorpI. and
Mrs. Hawkins from the summer of
1941 to May, 1912. At first she was
quiet and well behaved, but later
Corpl Hawkins said she began to

Two men particularly were in con-

Glenn Dale Sanitarium. Mrs. Rid
ings told the Hawkinses that he was
her husband, according to Corpl.
Hawkins, and she used his car regu-
larly.
The other man was much older
than Mrs. Rulings and often took
her out.

| hotel.
Police Chief Clifford r. Becker
investigating a bellboy's report OF
seeing the woman in black in Corpl
Riding's room when he took soft
drinks up there the night of the
murder, said, II feel certain when
this woman is found the case will
be solved"
The possibility that the woman
might have been a man masquerad-
ing was advanced by 1t. Noel Jones
in charge of the detective investi-
cation.
DR.. Roy B. Storms, Marion County
coroner, said that the woman had
been attacked and attributed her
death to shock and loss of blood
caused by severed jugular vein.
1t. Jones reported that an 18-
year-old youth surrendered to police
in Newcastle, Ind, and confessed to
the killing. He was held on a va
grancy charge, but 1t. Jones said a
check on the youths confession
failed to substantiate, his account
of being in Indianapolis the night
of the killing.
Meanwhile, a milkman on his
rounds found WAC skirt of Corpl.

hotel.
Corpl. Ridings formerly was en-
ployed by the Infantile Paralysis

By the Associated Press.
DENVER, Aug. 31.-Belief that
Gov. Bricker of Ohio will seek the
Republican nomination for the
presidency in 1914 was expressed
yesterday by former Gov. Ralph l.
Carr of Colorado.
Mr.. Carr was one of several Re-
publicans who visited with the Ohio
chief executive during his recent
vacation at a ranch near Sun
dance, Wyo.
He referred to a statement made
by Gov. Bricker Saturday when be-
ing initiated into the Wahoo Indian
tribe at Rapid City. S. Oak.
Gov. Bricker was given a name
which means Horse that wants te
run"
Gov. Bricker replied: "I know it's
not so much that the horse wants
to run, but it's most important
whether he's given the chance to
run"
II am sure that was an indication
OF his desire to obtain the Republi-
can presidential nomination in 1914
Mr.. Carr said. The Coloradan de-
clared other visitors at the ranch
took the same view.
Gov. Bricker and his party left
the vacation ranch for Columbus

Fight Against Draft
Is Lost by Taking
Case 10 Senator

Anton B. Fabatz, 36-year- old
photographer of the Civil Aero
nautics Administration, couldn't
wait for the wheels of the draft
machinery to turn. He paid a
call on Senator Shipstead of
Minnesota and will report for in
duction September 13.
The story of Mr.. Fabatz and the
draft really begins last November
when District Draft Board 9 put
him in Ia. Mr. Fabatz visited the
board, asked to be put pack in ga.
was turned down and appealed the
case
The appeal board put him back in
la and Mr.. Fabatz was notified to
report for induction July 10. Mr..
Fabatz went to his appeal agent.
Case Taken to Leahy.
According to the appeal agent, Mr..
Fabatz appeared to be a legitimate
hardship case. He had sick moth
er, and since he was nearing the age
limit and was doing essential work
the appeal agent decided the case
was worth another appeal, so he
wrote a letter to that effect to Dis
trict Director William E. Leahy.
After talking to the appeal agent,
Mr. Fabatz went to see Senator
Shipstead. The registrant said to-
day that call was merely to ask the
Senator to find out where his papers
were.
However, Senator Shipstead's Of
flee said today it had sent Gen.
Hershey letter quoting Mr.. Fabatz
as saying he felt his case should be
investigated.
Il am sending this material for
your consideration and any action
you may see fit to take" the Senator
wrote.
Put in Sd by District Board.
Gen. Hershey requested the draft
board to send the file to national
headquarters for review.
While the Presidential Appeal
Board was considering the case, the
District Appeal Board was busy, too.
The appeal agents recommendation
was followed and Mr.. Fabatz was
put in Sd as hardship case.
Before the District Appeal Board
got around to notifying Mr.. Fabatz
that his appeal was successful, the
