George Thomas, plant manager, stated this noon thar the young man had been warned several limes about reaching into the machine for foreign objects, cautioning him against the danger By a queer quirk of fate, th" Zwiek and Son ambulance was on route to the hospital with another accident victim when the call came in for C ironer Zwiek. Chari- s Stitser. plant employe, was being taken to the hospital after he had fallen from a platform. Stitser had been hurt but a fe-.v minutes after Habegger was thought t-i have been killed, but the fact .va-s not known. Surviving besides the parents of the victim are the wife and an Infant child, living near Monroe on route one. He was born on Septembei 13. 1910. The body was taken to the Zwiek & Son funeral home, until funeral arrangements are completed. After investigation this afternoon Coroner Zwiek returned a verdict of cidental death, attributing the exact cause of death to loss of blood and a crushed cheat. Surviving are the parents, the widow. Deloris, and infant child, one brother. Vilas, of near Monroe and three sisters. Mrs. Francis Ellsworth, of Decatur. Dorothy and Juanita at the parents’ home. He had been employed at the plant since last July, and was driving back and forth to work He was well known throughout the county, both by his own acquaintances and his father's. Brain Concussion Charles Stitser, age 28. employe of the Central Soya company was injured shortly after 10 o’clock this morning, when he fell from the platform at the company office. Although there were no eyewitnesses to the accident, it is thought that Mr. Stitser fell from the plaitform to the ground about six feet below. Employes of the office found him lying on the cinders in front of the platform. The Zwiek H Son ambulance was called and he was taken to the Adams county memorial hospital. The attending physician stated this afternoon that he was suffering from a slight brain concussion. and probable fractures of the right hip and leg. He stated that his condition is not thought to be serious. I If his condition warrants. X-rays

PARLIAMENT IS OPENED TODAY King Edward \V ar n s World Great Britain Rushes Rearmament (Copyright 1936 by United Press) London.

The international and domestic policies of Britain outlined by the King were secondary in many minds to an inquisitiveness about another topic Among men and women, high and low. in and out of the joint session of bo’h house* of parliament meeting in the House of Lords, the question on many lips wan: "Was she there?" and “Did you see her?" The name of Mrs. Wallis Warfield Simpson. Amercian friend of the King's was superfluous. Reporters asked members of parliament, who/asked attendants in- ■ side and out. who in turn again asked the press men —a circle which left the question unanswered, the 1 mystery of the moment. One member of parliament who said he knew the dark-haired Baltimore divorcee by sight, looked 1 for her especially in the distinguished visitors benches and through the hall—but in vain, he said. Then there was another who had 1 never seen Mrs. Simpson, who said that a woman who looked like her I pictures was dresseu in black and occupied the royal box with a grey- ( haired woman companion. Mrs. Simpson had been expected ty some to attend the parliament ceremony, the King's first official I function of thia sort since his as- . cension to the throne.
