Bewitch has been pointed fol

Jones limited that she might come
back to her second race in four
days for an expected duel with
the speedy Special Touch, but
wouldn't commit himself until
weights for the event are posted
tonight.
Bewitch's apparent gallantry ir
the stretch yesterday was seer

In 1947, it was recalled. Cita-

The Internal Revenue Bureau

that an independent Federal

nent citizens and not otherwise
members or employees of the Fed
Ieral Government" 1t would be
empowered to hear witnesses and
conduct hearings. keeping alive
a continuing study of the activi-
ties of the national crime Syndi-
cate.
The commission would main
tain proper liaison between Fed

ment agencies and crime commits

other corrective policies and act

information respecting criminal
activities in interstate commerce. !"
Favors Setting Up Racket Squad.
Among other things. the COM
mittee favored the organization
of a racket squad in the Justice
Department to go after racketeers
and organized criminal mobs, and
the setting up of special internal
revenue fraud squads. This lat
ter step was taken by the Treas

Police Seek Identity
OF Dead Woman

Prince Georges County police
today were making further efforts
to identify a woman found dead
yesterday on the Indian Head
highway a mile south Of Oxon
Hill, Md.
Several hairs from the woman'S
head are being analyzed to de-
termine if she was blond or gray.
When discovered, the body was in
an advanced state OF decomposi-
ton, having been at the spot about
three weeks, according to DR.. john
G. Maloney, county medical exA
aminer. He could not estimate
the woman's age.
The woman's teeth also are
being charted so they can be
compared with records of women
on missing persons lists. The
dead woman was wearing only a
slip, which is being checked for
laundry marks.
DR.. Maloney said he performed
parIldl autopsy yesterday, which
showed no fractured bones, marks
OF injury on the head or any
other signs of foul play. He
said he may perform an addi-
tional post mortem examination
today, depending on further in
