ulOIlOpOly Ill tIlc
carrying of all mailable packages.
Once called the "pamphleteer of
Congress-" Mr.. Williams was an
expert on the workings of Gov
ernment and was we'll known to
lawmakers here.
Constant Contributor.
An associate counsel of the
National Association of Manu-
facturers for many years, Mr..
Williams was a frequent contribu-
tor to magazines and newspapers
and as recently as last June 8,
his article on the history of the
Post Office was printed on the
editorial page of The Star. His
desk at home yesterday was lit
tered with manuscripts and cor
respondence with publishers on
which he had been working.
Born in Fayetteville. Ark, Mr..
Williams was a direct descendant
of Daniel Boone. He attended
Hindsville (ArkJ Academy and
studied law privately.
He practiced law in Fayetteville
from 1894 to 1911 and was men,
ber Of the Arkansas bar, the bar
of the United States Supreme
Court, and the District bar. Mr..
Williams was United States Com
missioner in Arkansas for IL years.
Mr.. Williams joined the fight
for the parcel post system in the
early 1900's. In 1909 he was de-
scribed as perhaps the most effec-
tive fighter for the system in the
country.
Joined Legal Staff.
After strong presentation of
testimony on proposed parcel post
legislation before a Congressional
committee in 1911, Mr.. Williams
was asked to join the legal staff
of the House Committee on Post
OlIlce expenditures.
His story as told to friends was
'I cashed the return stub of my
ticket, sent for my family, and
have been here ever since"
During the following years, he
served as special counsel to a
number of Senate and House COM
mittees.
His efforts helped bring about
use of registered mail in 1915 for
shipment of currency and gold in
stead of through the express COM
'panies.
Mr.. Williams pamphlets and
publications included The Amer
ican Post Office." a Senate docu-
ment of 1910: Laws on Trusts
and Monopolies," 1918; National
Trade Associations" 1922; "The
Dust Bin" a study of American
Government. 1898; "An Arkansas
Traveller" 1941 and many others.
We the People in 1946.
AS late as 1916, he published
I'VE, the People" a review Of the
purposes of a free people as set
forth in the Preamble to the Con-
stitution. The book was sent to
each Representative and Senator
at the time.
Mr.. Williams maintained law
Offices at 1910 Vermont avenue
NV. He had been in semiretire-
ment for the last four years.
He was a former president of
the Arkansas State Society here
and was a member of a number of
bar associations.
He is survived by his widow, Mrs.
Ida Ware Williams; two daugh-
ters, Mrs. Elgin Groseclose, of
4813 Woodway lane NV, and
Mrs. Pincus Rothenburg, of 27lO
CORTLAND place NV; son
Philip Williams, of Charlotte,
N. c.; two sisters, Mrs. Stella
Ware, of Springdale, Ark, and

She had a smile for every one,
And heart as good as gold
And those who knew her loved her

Detective Chief H. G. Howard
said Pelleni admitted he engi-I
neered blasts at Miami Jackson
High School, the Imperial Hotel
and Shenandoah Junior High
School and participated in others.
No one was injured in the blasts.
The only apparent reason for
the blasts was Pellni'S statement
that he had a "grudge" against the
high schools and once had an
argument with woman who lived
at the hotel, Chief Howard said.
Chambers made 100-page
statement naming Pelleni the
leader and alleging the university
student made some of the explo-
sives in shop" at his home.
