FAMILY SLAIN YEAR AGO
FBI and Police Still Hard at Work
On Jackson Murder Mystery

9 miles apart in the upper Po-
tomac River area weeks after
they disappeared from Route /
near Beltsville, Md, on June /,
1856.
The shooting Of Mrs. Mar
garet Harold on June 26, 1857,
on little-used road only seven
tenths of a mile from where
Mrs. jackson and Susan Ann
were later buried.
The attack on a couple at
Lake Waterford only IL miles
away from where the Jacksons
were found only IL hours be-
fore the Harold murder.
The attack and kidnapping Of
couple on a back road near
Laurel on August "a. 1858.
The last three cases bore suf-
ficient similarities to prompt
police to link them together and
with the jackson case. The two
earlier double murders were in
cluded because of the locales,
the attempt to conceal the bod
les in the Shomette-Ryan case
and the kidnapping and separate
disposition of the bodies in the
Fellers-Venable case.
Capt. Lindsey renewed his
appeal to the public, made
fruitlessly- some months ago.
Again. he urged anyone who
might have been molested
while in a parked car to tell the
incident to police. Again. he
promised lnformants that their
information would be held in
strictest confidence and would
be used only for investigative
leads.
FBT's Belief
The FBI also believes the
Jackson case was not the first
for the killer and. "in all prob
ability. not the last"
FBI agents, however, are
concentrating on the only COM
mon denominator" they can
find: Who was equally familiar
with the little-used Virginia
road where Mr.. Jackson and
the baby were found and with
the inaccessible. virtually un-
known trail down which the
killer took Mrs. Jackson and
Susan Ann to their deaths?
So far. an FBI spokesman
said. 1,085 possible suspects
have been absolutely elimi-
mated. The remaining 236 are
now being checked to determine
positively their whereabouts on
the night of January IL. 1859.
The FBl'S inveStigative tar
gets come from three sources
present or past patients in men
tai institutions whose sexual
alterations or other quirks Of
mind indicate a possible ca
pacity for crimes of this nature;
persons whose daily or occa-
sional work or play routes took
them to the particular areas of
MARYLAND and Virginia where
the bodies were found; persons
whose modus operadi in other
cases shows some similarity to
the Jackson case as we'll as the
similar unsolved crimes.
FBI agents have interviewed

are sharply divided on the
sales tax issue.
Delegate James M. Thomson
of Alexandria, for example.
said he will vote for every
crippling amendment that is
offered to the bill in the hopes
of killing it.
Arlington State Senator
Charles r. Fenwick. on the
other hand. has indicated he
will back the Governors re-
quest If he is convinced that
added demands Of State gov
ernment require the additional
revenue.
Mann Opposes
Arlington Delegate Harrison
Mann has expressed outright
opposition to the levy while
his colleague, Delegate William
L. Winston, without committing
himself on the proposal, said he
will offer or support exemptions
for purchases of groceries and
drugs. Gov. Almond has SHE'D
away from disclosing what ex-
emptions he will ask for other
than to say that they will be
held to q minimum"
Both Mr.. Winston and Fair
fax Senator John A. K. Donovan
will attempt to go beyond the
Governors recommendations in
providing income tax relief to
compensate for the sales tax.
Gov. Almond proposes to raise
exemptions from $1,000 to ST.
500 for the taxpayer and his
wife.
Mr.. Donovan will again offer
legislation he has been unable
to have enacted in the past to
provide $700 across the board
exemptions for the taxpayer
and each member of his fam
lily, thus beneflting larger fam
lilies. Mr.. Winston said he will
back legislation increasing ex-
emptions for each dependent
child from 5000 to $500.
Fairfax Bill Planned
The Arlington delegation has
IA or more bills which have
been requested by the County
Board. Among them is one to
replace the old l946 charter
which could incorporate the
county into a city If the vot-
ers approve. Mr.. Winston said
he will Introduce the bill with

The FBI has 236 persons
under active investigation at
this time" in the year-old muir
der Of Carroll v. Jackson, jr.,
his wife and two young daugh-
ters, it was learned yesterday.
1t was just a year ago to-
morrow - another Sunday -
that the Jacksons disappeared
on the road from Buckner, Va,
TO their home in Apple Grove,
Va.
Their car was found aban-
doned the next day eight miles
from their home. The wide
spread search for them was
fruitless until March 4, when
the bodies of Mr. Jackson and
18-month-old Janet were found
under a pile of brush near
Fredericksburg, Va. On March
81, two boys found the bodies
of Mrs. Jackson and 6-year- -old
SuSon Ann buried in shallow
grave about IL miles west of
Annapolis.
Thousands QuiZzed
Since then nothing
Thousands of possible suspects
have been questioned by the
FBI, Virginia, Maryland and
District police. Thousands OF
tips have been run down-and
out. Theories have been more
numerous than facts.
To mark the anniversary of the
disappearance, Capt. Charles
M. Lindsey of the Virginia
State Police has sent out a
confidential flve-page bulletin
based on one theory that has
not yet been disproved-that
the killer has struck before and
may strike again.
The bulletin, destined for
1900 police agencies, gives a
resume of other unsolved mur-
ders and attacks on women IN
cars-crimes that bear a SIM
ilarity to the known facts o1
the Jackson case.
Capt. Lindsey said it was the
largest mailing of its kind sent
out by Virginia State Police
and that it brought the other
unsolved cases officially into
the Jackson picture for the
first time.
State and local police sgen-
cieS are asked in the bulletin to
review their own files for cases
with similar modus operardi.
They are asked to be alert for
any incidents Of a similar
nature that might be reported
to them now.
Cases in Bulletin
The cases summarized in the
bulletin include:
The shooting of Michael Ann
Ryan and Nancy Marie Shom-
cite as they crossed Northwest
Branch Park near their homes
IN Lane Manor, Md, on June
Is, 1855.

He replaces the Rev. Walter H.
Stone, now executive secretary of
the conference board of education.
The Rev. Harry H. Conner, pas
tor of Calvary Church, Wilmington,
since 1856, was appointed to the
Odessa Methodist Church, and the
Rev. Chester E. Wilcox, who serv-
ed one year at Odessa comes to
Calvary Church, Wilmington.
Bishop Oman conducted the or
dination services which eliminated
the religious exercises of the con-
ference.

Bishop Oman said in his address
at the morning services at Grace
Church.
In concluding his analysis of the
years to come after history of
175 years of Methodism, the Bishop
concluded: "The next 175 years
must be characterized by an intel
lect big enough to speak out in
terms of new philosophy that
emerges from the very essence of
the Christian faith, to use new
power to create and maintain
peace. 1t must be mind and heart
and will, full of light, that in lei
sure can lift mankind to the prac-
tice of love-"

conference on Saturday approved
a budget of $39O,244, which was
$84,55S above that of the previous

Wheat Growers Vote
July q On 61' Deal
CONTINUED from page one)

In proclaiming quotas for 1861,
the Secretary established the ma
tional acreage allotment at the
minimum of SIS million acres per-
mitted by law. OF this. 32,762 acres
were allotted to Delaware, from
which local wheat farmers will re-
ceive individual farm allotments
before voting in the referendum.
The Secretary also announced
that the minimum national aver
age support price for 1861 wheat
will be made known before the ref
erendum on the basis of the latest
available supply information. Bas-
ed on the present wheat supply
and the present law. the legal
minimum wheat support for 1861
would be Is per cent of parity, the
same percentage as this year.
If marketing quotas take effect,
a grower who complies with his
allotment will be entitled to mar
ket his total 1861 wheat crop with
out penalty and will be eligible for
price support at the full rate.
A grower who exceeds his acre
age allotment will be ineligible
for price support and will also be
subject to marketing quota penal
