MOVIE DEATH MYSTERY KEY IN LAW HANDS Definite Moves Are Made Toward Solution of Taylor Murder.

BY FRANK H. BARTHOLOMEW United Press SUIT Correspondent SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 2. Definite moves toward solution of them urder of William Desmond the murder of William Desmond famous movie colony tragedy by Friend W. Richardson, former Governor of California, were expected to start in Las Angeles today. Identity of the two mysterious key witnesses referred to in a sensational statement by Richardson Tuesday was learned by the United Press from Thomas H. Cannon, examiner for the state railroad commission. The men are George Heffner, alias William Nelson, and Edward Sands. Steps will be taken to locate Heffner, who In turn, it is hoped, can reach Sands. The latter is believed to be in Mexico. Richardson's written statement to the United Press asserted that at time he was Governor, Heffner, a “two-time loser” as Folsom penitentiary, sent word that he had valuable first-hand evidence in connection with the Taylor slaying. Narcotic Ring Involved Heffner’s deposition indicated that the Hollywood tragedy of 1922 took place against the background of the operation of a narcotic ring, with which Heffner and Sands asserterily were connected. It wa* inferred that the actual shooting was done by a woman. Neither Heffner nor Sands was mentioned by name by Richardson, but the United Press established their identity through Cannon, who at the time was a member of the prison board. The Richardson statement said he presented Heffners information to individual members of the Los Angeles grand jury secretly. The jurymen advised him, he said, that District Attorney Asa Keyes was in league with “powerful interests” seeking to protect the slayer of Taylor and that the only result of the formal consideration of Heffner’s testimony would be to endanger the convict’s life. Subsequently, the statement continued, Heffner was pardoned when the news that he was willing to “squal” leaked out. and placed him in actual danger of assassination. Sands Will Return One statement in Heffner's deposition was that Sands, former valet to Taylor, had fled to Vera Cruz, and was willing to return and give his first person evidence if assured of personal safety. Joseph Vickers, secretary to Richardson when the latter was Governor, will confer with District Attorney Buron Fitts in Los Angeles today in connection with the new evidence, Richardson telegraphed Vickers last night.

NATION’S DIET IS CHANGED BY BETTER ROADS Benefit Which Few People Realize Is Attained by Hard Highways. I By Times Soecial PHILADLEPHIA, Jan. 2. —The period of phenomenal progress in good road building throughout the. United States, which has marked the past ten years, has worked an I unanticipated and extremely benei ficial change in American diet. For . every mile of improved highway laid ; down, some farmer has added to his I production of wholesome green vegetables, readily marketable in the nearest city. This is the odd and interesting point brought out by Earle Duffy, writer in the current issue of The Farm Journal, who points out that good roads are quite as essential to the modern farmer as his agricultural machinery itself, “In North Carolina, for example, this amazing change has come about since the passage of the first $50,000,000 state bond issue for good roads in 1921,” he points out. “Farms where nothing but tobacco was grown for decades now are green with truck crops of all kinds. Dairying, too, has sprung into prominence, for it has become an easy matter to ship dairy products to market by truck.” The same change has been wrought by good roads throughout the country, it is shown. Farmers who once depended almost entirely upon one staple crop—corn, cotton, tobacco, wheat—are going in widely for vegetables and fruits which would have been too perishable to be grown profitably under old transportation conditions. Now, because these commodities can be whisked to market within a few hours, city residents are demanding and receiving a more varied and constantly increasing green diet. Although the total of surface road constructibn in the country has been phenomenal in recent years, there still is much to be done. Os 287,000 miles of state highways in the United States, approximately 190,000 miles now are surfaced, leaving 97,000 miles to be improved. But the gaps are being filled rapidly, The Farm Journal writer points out. lowa, for example, is at work on a $100,000,000 road program which will mean a paved network covering the state. North Carolina, since it made its first forward step in 1921, has expended $115,000,000 on a system of 7,500 miles of paved roadways. Other states are rapidly filling up their unpaved gaps. Farmers who a few years ago opposed road improvements or were dubious concerning their advantages, now are conceding that paved highways are essential to farm success.
