tho blind, The state library already owns one Braille machine, and has bought three more for use on the project. The machines look very much like a portable typewriter but have only six keys—big black keys that look like they had been on the key board of an old-fash-ioned piano. With such an intricate system of dots, the work requires much more space than printing or typing. For example, the average else book requires six or seven, and sometime,* as many as ten volumes in Braille. It is planned to start the project with short novels and some short stories. Although In the past a few short stories have been transcribed, the number is small, and it is felt that the workers will be doing a. valuable service in making a large number of short stories accessible to blind readers. The women will work 130 hours a month. The project has been set up for twelve months, with a federal allotment of $6,300. This includes only salaries. Materials are to be furnished by the state library, at a. total cost of $305. including machines, paper and binding. As the books are completed, they will be placed in the library’s traveling library for shipment to blind readers over the state. - — o— Misouri Foregts Expanded Jefferson City, Mo.. — (UP) — Without an acre of federal forest lands two years ago.

RENEW SEARCH CONTINUBD FROM PAQH ONI? by the name of "Wayne." Sweeney said the man was armed with a nickel-plated gun which he believed was a 38 caliber. Foster was shot with a 38-callber gun. -lust before they reached Fort Wayne tho gunman ordered Sweeney to stop the taxicab in the center of the highway, go to a pump in a church yard and bring a cup of water. The cab driver obeyed and when he returned with the water he was ordered to wash The windows in the cab. “I don’t want Sny fingerprints left here," the gunman commented as Sweeney washed the glass. The gunman also ordered Sweeney to take off his wrist watch. Sweeney gave the man the watch and the gunman changed the time on it. He said he once read that police had Aiught a man by knowing the correct time. Before he left the cab he returned the watch to Sweeney. These two actions also strengthened the belief of local police that Smith was the gunman in the taxicab. He has the reputation of attempting to be a story-book Criminal. "This fellow sounds just craiy enough to be Smith,” DetectiveSergeant Smith stated after hearing Sweeney s story. While coming to Fort Wayne tho gunman told Sweeney that he was from Pennsylvania and was wanted for murder. He said he had killed a man who had killed his father In an automobile accident, and claimed two girls brought him from Pittsburgh to Lima. When they drove into Fort Wayne the gunman osdered Sweeney to stop on the Bueter road at the Pennsylvania elevation. He got out of the cab and ran up onto the railroad tracks. Sweeney continued on into Fort Wayne and reported the affair at police head quarters immediately. He returned to Lima after makiug his report. t Foster was muraered in his restaurant at Fourth and Wells street on the night of August 13 when he resisted an attempted robbery. He died in the ambulance en route to St. Joseph’s hospital. Smith was named as the slayer of the restaurant owner and has been hunted since that night. Gordon Johnson, 23, of 1523 East Creighton avenue, a taxicab driver, is being held in jail on a charge of murder as a result of the slay 'ing He took Smith to the restaurant and carried him from the scene of the murder. He said he took Smith into Ohio and then brought him back into this state letting him out of the cab near Besancon. Four night later Smith was identified as the bandit who held up and robbed the Paulding. 0., state liquor store, taking $lO9 from O. E. Brune, manager. The following night he was partially identified as the bandit who held up and robbed Lloyd Bryan of Monmouth in front of the Adams County Memorial hospital at Decatur. The bandit took SSB in this robbery. Since that time the trail of Smith has been lost and it was thought by many that he had left this vicinity. However it is known that Smith has many acquaintances in Fort Wayne and surrounding towns and also in western Ohio.

It may soon be united by separation. By that 1 mean the north and south portions of the country will divide.

One man of the four had killed the othei* three, then killed himself—proved by the fact that every window was locked and the door was wired shut on the inside. That man. police decided, was Charles Geary. His body was in repose, the lethal weapon at his side. Ben jamin LeVan and John Geary had been shot in the back. Orlando had been shot in the stomach. Their bodies were sprawled on the floor where they had fallen. In the apartment was - not one scrap of writing, not one thing to indicate motive. Police questioned neighbors, learned that the Geary brothers were the nephews of the LeVan brothers. They learned that John Geary had lived with his uncles for several months, but Charles arrived from Tobyhanna. Pa., yesterday morning. Two months ago Orlando's wife. Kathryn, died. From hits of information gathered from friends, police sun ised that Charles had been inordinately devoted to his aunt. Yesterday he and his broth-

Sept. 19 —(UP) — Tom Mooney'* xociul and economic philosophy, source of much of the determination of California official dom to keep him in prison until death, remains unchanged after 19 years of imprisonment. Mooney still believe* in social revolution, in a dictatorship of the working clames. and in the principles of the I. W. W.. he revealed In i an exposition of his beliefs during the hearings on his application for a writ of habeas corpus. Furthermore, the man California ; accuses of having eet off the dyna-1 mite bombs which killed 10 persons !■ and maimed more than 30 at a pat- ( riotic demonstration here in 1916 . maintains that President Roosevelt , stand* for much of what Mooney himself has stood for In the years of his militant unionism. Moon?y's exposition of his philosophy overshadowed the legal routine of the hearings which resumed today in his fight for vindication and freedom. It came in the concluding .phase of the first day of a procedure which is expected to take several months instead of several weeks because- of the determination of Mooney's counsel to get into the record every detail of the case. Called as the first witness in hie own behalf, Mooney answered guestions of his counsel concerninging the historical phases of his i case, telling of his surrender toI authorities, of the alleged prejudice-' of his prosecutors, of the trials, and j of his fight for freedom. He referred to the photograph alibi, pointing out himself aud his | wife, Rena, on the roof of the Eilers building, where he maintained they were standing when the explosion shattered San Francisco’s prepared- : ness parade. Then William F. Cleary, deputy attorney general fighting against Mooney's writ, began cross-examina-tion. He plungeq immediately into' Money’s beliefs. In a firm, clear voice Mooney, said he believed in revolution. "I have always been in favor of I the principles of the 1. W. W. the president of the United States favors the same thing,” He went on. In explanation Mooney said that

the President, In the NRA, tried to organise all workers in an Industrial union. He intimated that was the I. W. W. punpOM. He said he stood for a social revolution for the purpose of making unions powerful enough to control everything. Mooney suporters have maintained that evidence was perjured In order to put Mooney away and "protect" California industry from ihis organization activities. The alleged perjury formed tho basis of the new effort to free Mooney.
