Icil previously had approved the
merger.
The Northern Virginia group
reported it did not want to be
included because the new setup
might hamper its political ac-
tivity. But it did not take
part in last nights voting.
The new organization, to be
called the Greater Washington
Central Labor Council, would
represent about 10000 union
members in the area, AL

$4,000.
The next step for the merger

Laboratory director, said that
when all the human segments
had been collected from Gems
farm, technicians would study
them in an effort to identity
the victims Of the grave
robberies.
Followed Death Notices
Gein said he had followed
death notices published in the
local newspaper and then
opened the graves Of women
who had just died.
The handyman said he had
visited cemeteries about 20
times, robbing at least 10
graves from 1914 to 1852. He
indicated that on other occa-
sions he snapped out Of his
"daze" and went home without
violating q grave.
Gem said the pillaging Of
graves always had been done
when I was in a daze like
when ! killed Mrs. Worden."
In his statement Gein re.
called visiting the Wordeu
hardware store Saturday MORN
ing and paying 90 cents for
some antifreeze. He also re-
membered transporting Mrs
Worden's body to his farm
home.
Asked whether he remem-
bered killing her, he said, mo,
that is. what I can't remember ;
my memory Is q little vague"
Gein said he did remember
hanging the body from its heels
in the shed and butchering it
because I thought I was dress
ing out a deer"
In the statement, he said,
That is as close as I can re-
member. I was in a regular
daze-like and I can't swear TO
it."
Mrs. Worden's disappearance
was discovered by her son,
Frank. who also found that the
last sales slip written by his
mother was for antifreeze. He
remembered Gein saying in
the store Friday he would re-
turn Saturday morning to make
the purchase.

Here are some Of the ques-
tions the lie detector test may
answer:
Did Gein mould hideous
death masks from the faces Of
new-buried dead?
Macabre Questions
Did he fabricate upholstery
for furniture in his cluttered
farmhouse from human skin?
Did he intend to eat the one
victim he admits killing. the
one Of whom he said, almost
apologetically. II am not too
sure that ] killed her."
THAT is what I can't re-

Waushara County officers yes
terday afternoon.
A "daze," he said. came on
him when he did such things
as dig up the graves from which
he took at least 10 heads.
Once, he said, the daze left
him while he was digging in a
burial mound.

Mrs. Worden's body, discovered
the heads of four other presons

and could have been handed

The attorney attacked the
Commissioners while address
ing some rs persons at q
monthly meeting Of the
local branch Of the Ma
tional Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Colored People al
the Twelfth Street YMCA. His
subject was THE Truth About
the Public Hearing. ~
Anyone who thinks that the
NAACP is dead or lost prestige
as a result Of the hearing is in
dulging in wishful thinking
and only kidding themselves, .
Mr.. Dodson said. ION the con-
trary, it may have done us q
service since it brought to the
public's attention exactly what
is going on in very high places. "
Three Major Targets
Mr.. Dodson's particular tar.
gets were Commissioner Robert
E. Mclaughlin. president of the
board. Police Chief Robert v
Murray and The Star.
He renewed a charge he
made prior to the hearings that
"the Commissioners should moi
have been the ones to hear the
arguments in the first place
because they were just as much
defendants as the police"
He told the group that "dif-
ficulties with police probably
would continue" as long as I'VE
have a police chief who never
went beyond the eighth grade. =
Discrimination and brutality
are the result Of ignorance, he
said, and "the job requires
enlightenment"
He criticized The Star for an
editorial in which it said the
NAACP did not prove its case
at the hearings, and as a re-
suit. would lose prestige.

The great white granite ter
minal, through which an esti-

by an Act of Congress, over a

grade crossings in the District
and make possible removal of
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad

Daniel H. Burnham q Co. of

with an eye to the terrific
crowds which pour into Wash

by one per cent.
This week saw the inevitable
results: Gasoline price wars all
over the lot, and massive cut
backs in oil refinery operations.
Tagging sales constituted a
problem. too, in such lines as
home appliances, floor cover
ings and mems suits. Mems
wear retailers blamed curtailed
overtime and resultant smaller
paychecks in factories, mills
and mines, and uncertainty
about the business outlook.
This. of course. was only
part of the picture. There were

economy showed evidence OF
