Jenny left home to play with children in the neighborhood shortly before noon yesterday.

A deputy sheriff was called and } the officer, upon gaining entrance, ' said he found McLachlan burning blood-stained garments. They were : 1 his own. His suspicions aroused because of the girl missing in the neighborhood. the officer began questioning McLachlan. When word came of the discovery of Jenny's body a crowd gathered quickly. It learned that McLachlan had been burning clothing. A shout of “lynch him" went | up. The man was roughly jostled I as he was led to a sheriff's car under guard of deputies.

With a reassuing word that “this recession" has not returned the nation to the disasters of 1929. Mr. Roosevelt explained that banks now are safe, agriculture is not deeply distressed, market speculative dangers have been minimized, national income has almost doubled since 1932 and the government has accepted permanent responsibility for relief. His immediate objective is to lift the national income in the next two years from the present rate of $56,000,000,000 to $80,000,000,000 a year. But beyond that period his

Mussolini's aid to the rebel -cause might be paid for in two ways. Spain’s rich iron and eoal deposits are sorely needed by the Fascist state. And a Spain friendly to Italy, possibly to the point where it would be an active ally of Italy in case of
