The Frauds Division Of the
Post Office Department is trying
to prove that a prosperous Cana
dian faith-healer has no faith
in himself.
1t is preparing a brief to show
that Joseph Anatole Des Posses
of Montreal. who borrowed De-
troit post-office box to enlarge
his msil-order business, does not
really believe his own assertion
that for a fiat rate of SIC he can
cure anyone of anything that
ails them-from fiat feet to
broken bones.
William c. O'Brien. chief OF
the Frauds Division. says the
mere fact that Mr.. Dies Posses
admits that when there's any
thing the matter with any men,
bers of his own family he sends
them to a doctor, makes it plain
he doesn't believe in the powers
he peddles.

R.-Elmer Dolan, a former st.

from Federal prison early today
after completing a perjury SEN

Dolan served a two-year SEN

Wick Temple of the Texar-

wait outside the prison gate
until after an automobile sped
out Of the prison grounds. It
apparently carried Dolan and
his wife who had come here to
meet him.
Dolan and a veteran st. Louis
police lieutenant. Louis Shout

giving perjured testimony before
a Federal grand jury.
The two officers arrested Carl

Brief AssuiIs Fuith-Heo|er
Who Calls Doctor for Family

hearing last summer, Mr.. DeS
IFosses, who gave UP formal
schooling after the fourth grade
to devote himself full time to
curing the sick, brought forth a
large, handsomely illustrated
booklet full of pictures of salts
fed customers. some 10 people
came to testify that MI, Des
Posses 3 minutes of concen-
trated prayer had healed them
of all sorts of infirmities. MI
iDes Moses rides a regular
circuit through Canada and en-
ploys three secretaries to handle
his large volume of business.
A Canadian periodical said his
yearly income is 100000.
1t was also brought out at the
hearing that Mr.. Des Posses had
been convicted Of practicing
medicine without a license, that
there was a fraud order out
against him and that he had
been condemned by the late
Cardinal Villeneuve of Montreal.
Mr.. Des Fosses, who was, accord
ing to observers, a fluent witness,
testifying only in French, brought
his own photographer to the
proceedings. He also paid the
travelling expenses of the people
who came to say he had cured
them.
DR.. Kenneth Campbell of the
Food and Drug Administration
testified that certain diseases
could only be cured by medical
treatment or surgery. The FDA
can not move against MI. Des
Posses, however, since he is not
selling any preparations or de-
vices. He simply concentrates
on the patients i'll and then ex-
erts an Inner power" which, he
says was given him by God when
he was in the fourth grade.
Hearing Examiner James c
Haynes ruled that the Frauds
Division had not spelled out bao
faith or fraudulent intent on the
part of Mr. Des Fosses.
Now Mr.. O'Brien is preparing
a brief. for presentation on De-
cember II, to Abe McGregol
Golf, Solicitor General Of the
Post Office Department, to try tc
convince him that Mr.. Des Eos
ses does not believe the propa.
sanda he is sending through
United States mails.

DEATH HUNG FROM A KITE
Continued from preceding page

But it was making mistake. 1t was coming
down into the valley below, down near the
empty bungalow. And then, suddenly cold and
shivering, she gave a desperate cry. 1t was
coming down into the swamp.
Tina started headlong down the path, a gulp-
ing, sobbing bundle of rushing limbs. By the
time she'd passed the empty bungalow and
reached clump of giant bamboos where the
ground began to drop steeply, her kite had
dived out Of sight.
SHE tore round the base of the clump, her
small feet rustling the tinder-dry, dead leaves,
with his hands full of coils of blue string
He said, Hello, Tina. Is this your kite? l

She sobbed, Its fallen into the swamp"
"No, look" he said, pointing. And there
was her kite perched in tree with enormous
leaves down the steep slope to the swamp.

She followed him down the overgrown path,
out of the sunshine into the dark green shadow,
stumbling because she could hardly take her
eyes off the kite.
They're rather silly things, kites, Mr.. Creep
ing said. 'You have to be able to climb, because
they love getting into trees and then they can't
get out again.
Tina painted, Il can't climb much, but Luyoh
can climb anything. Shall go and get Luyoh?"
NO." Mr.. Creeping said. 'Well manage"
She hesitated ''But the swamp's down there"
She could feel the chill in that green-black
shade and smell the stuffy unwholesomeneSs.
"Never mind" MIR. Creeping said. Were
nearly there" And only few seconds later
the kite had been coaxed out of the tree. She
had just moment of supreme joy. as it sank
into her gentle arms. and then she saw how
Mr.. Creeping had changed.
He had spun round to face her with strange
look in his greeny eyes, sort of shy and dreamy.
He was sweating, too, and his mouth was open,
breathing hard the way he had that day in the
empty bungalow. And there was another knife
in his hand, the sort you ate lunch with.
She didn't understand it all but she was sud-
denly saying, very fast, Il just made that up
about being in the empty bungalow that day.
I'm not allowed to 60 in there, anyway. I'm
always making things up. My Daddyn tell you"
Only MIR. Creeping wasn't listening. He
reached out his thin left hand to put on her
shoulder and the right one with the knife in it
went rigid. She clutched her kite to her and
screamed and ran. but the blue string from the
kite was still round his wrist and she was jerked
back and fell into the damp grass at his feet.
AND then something utterly silent sprang like
live shadow, and Mr. Creeping made noise
like whooping cough, and Luyoh was saying,
''Tina, you 60 home fast"
She said, "Yes, Luyoh,' but stayed to stare
a moment at Mr.. Creeping. Luyoh had bent
MIR. Creeping's arm behind his back, and MIR.
Creeping's shoulder was all hunched and he
was shutting his eyes and showing all his teeth.
The knife fell out Of one hand and the kite
string out Of the other, and she drew all the
ctriou in and ran
