inn so soon after the crime." in hla closing argument the fiery attorney had suggested an epitaph • for Mildred's tombstone: "Here lies a martyr who laid ■ down her life on the altar as a| ! sacrifice to the true precepts of 1 womanhood.” I Ren Thurman, scholarly stateappointed counsel tor the defense, . disappeared after the jury went out and had not returned yet when the verdict was read. After a brief wait Judge Joseph E. Dally finally heard the verdict without Thurman's presence. The judge set August 12 as a * date for hearing of motions for a ' new trial. He did not pronounce - sentence, but under Illinois law the , penalty was fixed by the jury. Mildred Hallmark, the victim, attended a movie wlt-h her sweetheart an hour before she was ravished and murdered. She was ' laughing and gay that Sunday night , as she and Johnny McGinnis walked out of the theater arm in arm t and boarded a streetcar. 1 Johnny left the ear near his home and left Mildred to ride home alone. When she got off the car 1 and stood at a transfer point, Thompson came along in his car and coaxed her to Tide with him ' on the pretense he would drive her ’. home. , She protested as they drove past her house but he headed his car toward a cemetery. She repulsed him when he forced his warm affections on her after they bad parki ed near a large, ghost-white tomb- ’ stone. And then she bit him. Angered, he struck her on the jaw with such force that she was rendered unconscious. While she was in that lifeless state, he attacked her and then tossed her laxly into a leafy <avine where it was found, nearly nude the following morning.

ARBITRATION ! EFFORT HALTS Terre Haute Plant Officials Refuse To Join Conference Terre Haute, Ind., Aug. I.—4U.R) —Arbitration of a labor dispute between striking employes and the Columbian Enameling and Stamping company was halted today when plant officials refused to enter a joint conference with union leaders. Employes have been on strike since March 23 in demand for a closet! shop and union recognition. Charles L. Richardson. Washington, and Harry Scheck, Chicago, federal mediators, were sent here after a general strike had paralyzed the city’s Industries July 22. "We will not meet with concliators and union representatives to negotiate a settlement of the strike at this plant and so advised Messrs. Richa/dson and Scheck, the conciliators, early last Tuesday morning,” C. L. Gorby, president of the plant, said today. “We feel that no real adjustment of any difficulties which exist or may have existed betwen ourselves and our employes can be made through efforts of conciliation," he concluded. An undetermined number of strike breakers ha.ve been hired at the plant and it is reported that production will be resumed within a short time. Meanwhile, four companies of the Indiana national guard ordered here July 23, were demobilized today. including companies H and K of 151st infantry and companies E aaid A of headquarters detachment of 152nd infantry. Major E. B. Weimer was left in charge of the approximately 100 soldiers guarding the plant. “We can mobilize 6,000 men in Vigo county within four hours if any further disturbance makes such action necessary,” Col. Wliltcomb said. o NURSE DEFENDS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE him for seven years." The disclosures by Mrs. Bauer upset all the calculations of investigators in the strange case who had come to the conclusion that Zenge held the key that would solve the many-sided mystery. A photograph of Zenge had been identified at Ann Arbor as the mysterious guest of the Jennings House hotel who abducted Bauer in his own automobile, drove him to Chicago and then dispassionately mutilated him. leaving him to die of loss of blood. Another piece in the jig-saw puzzle that seemed to tit Into the Zenge pattern was the revelation that Zenge left his home in Canton. Mo., recently saying he was going to Chicago and has not returned. Under cross-questioning at the inquest Mrs. Baner admitted Zenge was the boh of a dairyman and had worked on the family farm enough so that he might logically be familiar with animal husbandry. Physicians previously had pointed out tha.t the man who performed the mutilating operation must have been familiar with surgery or with veterinary work on animals. Making the tangled case even more complex was the discovery of letters in Bauer's hotel room in Ann Arbor indicating his relations with his bride were somewhat strained. One of the missives included the quotal-'.on, “my marriage 1 know has been a hoax." After Mrs. Bauer's appearance | at the inquest the stories of wit- | nesses who had found Bauer yesterday morning were recited and then the investigation was ordered held open until August 15 at the request of police.

TREASURY HEAD CONTINUED KROM PAGE ONE first, of reducing the deficit, and. later, reducing the public debt. ' Morgenthau reviewed his testi mony before the house ways and means committee on July 8 and repeated his offer of aid from the treasury department in framing the legislation. He said: “Ordinary expenditures for the general purpose of government have been held within the revenue. We have incurred and are incurring large emergency expenditures according to a carefully planned program for the sole object of caring for urgent needs of our citizens and promoting recovery.” He opposed new expenditures a,nd counselled reduction of the deficit and the public debt. o Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
