SLAIN BOY’S, FATHER FACES POLICE PROBE

Murdered Lad’s Parent Is Questioned After Trip From Farm. FUNERAL IS TOMORROW Mother’s Employer, Two Negroes Still Held for Quizzing. Shirley C Dillon father of the brutally murdered. 13-year-old Donald Dillon, arrived at police headquarters shortly before noon today afte r a quick trip from the farm a here he Is employed near Remind- ; to\ Ind. He went into conference I at once with detectives of the homi- ! ckle squad. Mr Dillon, a middle-aged man with a deeply tanned face, was accompanied by two men who, police said, were his brothers. All three went Into the detectives' office. Their conference was expected to lavt well into the afternoon as police sought from Mr Dillon information which, they hope, may clear up some matters about the Dillon family arrangements which still puzzle them Far her today. Chief Simon had announced that Mr Dillon had been located through the sheriff s office at Rensselaer, county seat of Jasper county, in which Remington is located. The chief, who later refused to allow reporters to talk to Mr. Dillon until detectives had finished their eonferenee with him. said he had no intention of arresting Mr. Dillon and. on the other hand, was most hopeful the father could provide valuable aid. Chief Simon said he had investigated Mr Dillon's record and indicated he had found it good. Negroes Are Grilled Shortly bcforp Mr. Dillon arrived, members of the homicide squad re- i turned to the county jail two Ne- ! gro suspects in the case after a morning of questioning them, police admitted, without results. Meanwhile. Lawrence Shaw, at- : ton#v for Gilbert Jacobs. 37. of 1871 Shelby street, for whom Mrs. Dimmif Dillon. Donald's mother, j >®ps house and with whom she, j onald and his brothers and sister j fiave lived for some time, threatened j to sue out a writ of habeas eorpus 1 unless Jacobs was released ihis at- > ternoon. Mr. Shaw, who also represented Mrs Dillon when she obtained her divorce from the boy's father last vear, has denied vehemently that Jacobs knows more of the killing Irian has been told and has voiced suspicion of the father. Charges against Jacobs —and against the two Negroes—are vagrancy. Bond has been set at $3,000 each. The two Negroes held are Addison and William Jackson, brothers. 1253 Calhoun street. Missing Gun Hunted The Jackson brothers were arrested. and are being held, because of past records of having molested rhildrpn near he bridge over PleasRun creek, at Minnesota and Shelby streets, under which Donald's body was found Tuesday when a storm sewer backed up and flushed it into the creek. Police Investigators say that Jacobs' stones have differed as to what happened to a .22-calibcr rifle which was in his room until about the time of the murder. The bullet which killed Donald was fired either from a .22 or 25-caliber rifle. Deputy Coroner John E. Wyttenbach has announced. Mrs. Dillon has told police Jacobs bought the gun several montiis ago and had told the boys they might use it under his supervision. The difference* in Jacobs' stories seem, from what little police will say. to have been as to when he last had the gun in his possession. Mr. Shaw said this morning that both Jacobs and Mrs. Dillon were agreed the gun first had been missed Monday noon, shortly before Donalds disappearance had been reported to police. This did not seem to jibe with Mrs. Dillon's earlier statements to reporters and. according to police, to official investigator*. Funeral Tomorrow Services for Donald will be at 2 p m tomorrow at the Jacobs-Dillon home, to which the body will be brought at 10 a. m from the Blasengym funeral home. Mrs. Dillon told reporters today that she wanted the funeral held at Donalds home because Donald was a home boy" The mother, who yesterday expressed the desire that J aeons might attend her son's funeral, todav admitted to reporters that, were it not for the remarriage prohibition m her divorce decree, because her husband was served by publication, she would have married Jacobs before this. She described Jacobs as being an ideal parent for the children, and contrasted him favorably with her husband, from whom she wop an uncontested divorce last year.

They obtained an injunction prohibiting police from interfering with solicitors for the Chicago Federation of Charities, after fifty women hfcd been jailed. Circuit Court Judge Daniel P. Trude issued the injunction on application of Mrs. Frank Specht, acting federation president. He directed police to refrain from further interference. Mrs. Specht triumphantly led her solicitors, many of them socially prominent women, out of jail. She was among the first arrested They were ordered to appear tomorrow for trial in women's court.

DEAN CASE JURY SELECTION LAGS New Venire of 25 Called as Original Panel of 100 Nears Exhaustion. Anew venire of twenty-five men was ordered impanelled today by Special judge Clyde H. Jones to be examined as prospective jurists in the trial of Edward i Foggy! Dean, charged with participation in the murder of Police Sergeant Lester Jones. It became evident shortly before noon that it would be impossible to complete the jury today. Malachi Collins. 2834 Ruckle street, was excused from jury service by the state because he had difficulty in understanding what an alibi was. Otto Kuehrmann, 405 East McCarty street, was excused by the defense because he said he was in the employ of a company for which Floyd Matt ice. chief deputy prosecutor. had acted a.s receiver. Albert Crump, R. R. 10. was excused unchallenged by the state. Three new’ men drawn are Orville Miller, 2918 North Delaware street; Dallas H. Halcome. R. R. 10. and Roy Sheppard, 1047 West Forty-eighth street. The number of available man was reduced to three out of the original 100 drawn. Both the state and the defense have used only three challenges earh out of twenty allowed each side. With both sides apparently satisfied with the eleven men occupying the jury box at adjournment last night, renewed questioning disclosed conscientious objections to capital punishment, and James W. Prather, 2344 Kenwood avenue, was excused by the prosecution. Mr. Prather said he believes .life imprisonment sufficient penalty. Floyd Mattice. chief deputy prosecutor. demands conviction under the first count of the indictment which would make death in the electric chair mandatory. Following a whispered conference between Clyde Miller, defense counsel, Dean and his attractive wife, the defense excused John O'Mara, 818 North Wallace street. Frank Perkins. 1314 North Capitol avenue, was dismissed for cause when he admitted opposition to the death penalty. John R. Pratt, 23 East Thirtysecond street, seated in place of Perkins, was under examination by defense counsel when the trial resumed this morning. Seated beside her husband at the defense table. Mrs. Dean holds frequent whispered conferences with Dean and his attorney.

DEADLY ERROR IS CHARGED TO SEA RESCUER President Cleveland’s Captain Is Assailed by His Chief Officer. PROBE WILLMOTT DEATH Poisoning May Have Killed Morro Castle Chief, Chemists Hint. By I nitrd Prrxt NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—Two sturdy officers from the rescue steamer President Cleveland and a firm-lipped stewardess who workpd heroically during the Morro Castle disaster told the federal inquiry board today that delayed or missing instructions from their superiors affected the grim task of saving passengers on the burning liner. While the United States commerce department’s public hearing turned up such charges of laxity, the federal grand jury, investigating possible criminal aspects of the fire, called acting Captain William F. Warms, acting First Officer Eben Abbott, and second radio officer George Aiagna of the late Morro Castle. The latter is under arrest as a material witness. Previously Martin Conboy, United States district attorney, had delayed the funeral of Captain Robert Willmott, who died several hours before the fire on the Morro Castle was discovered. Mr. Conboy said he desired to allay all suspicion as to causes of Captain Willmott's death, ascribed by the ship's doctor to acute indigestion and heart disease. Poisoning was reported to have been discussed by chemists. The Cleveland’s chief officer, James Henderson, and the third officer, Harold Peterson, related hesitantly but w'ith ccnviction their belief that Captain Robert Carey, master of the rescue vessel, erred in his efforts to rescue the disaster victims. Ask for Transfers "The life-boats should have been lowered sooner,” chief officer Henderson said, in commenting on the fact that the Cleveland came abeam of the burning ship at 6:20 a. m. on Saturday, but the first boat did not hit the w’ater until 7:08. He said the delay was due to lack of orders although it was testified that appeals were made to the captain to order the boats away. Roth officers said they had lost their "respect for Captain Carey's ability,’’ after hi* handling of rescue attempts. The Cleveland, they said, did not pick up a single survivor. They said they had requested the Cleveland’s owners either to remove Carey as master of the ship, or relieve them of their posts. Captain Carey, bluff, sandy-haired and gruff of speech, testified earlier that other rescue ships and small craft were closer to the burning ship and that he did not believe he could have done any thing more than was done to save lives. Never at Fire Drill Out of the welter of wnrds In which passengers, oilers, masters, officers and stewards have told of the disaster, the testimony of Mrs. Lena Schwarz, a stewardess, emerged today as one of the most straightforward recitals of heroism, terror and hysteria. She declared that she never had any instructions regarding what she should do in case of fire on the Morro Castle. Mr. Hoover said that George Aiagna, second radio operator on the Morro Castle, w'ho was alleged in testimony yesterday to have been feared and suspected of being "vengeful" by the late Captain Willmott. would be called before the board, but not today. Communists Blamed By United Prrxx HAVANA, Sept. 13—Morro Castle disaster was caused by Communists. Captain Oscar Hernandez, chief of the port police, declared today. He said he was ’preparing a complete report for the United States authorities as soon as they request | it."

Firstly, it was clear that even though the President mifht succeed in rapidly raising prices by threatened or actual inflation, nevertheless if industrial incomes meanwhile remained stationary, prices would merely run away from incomes and there would occur what occurred in 1920, a so-called consumers’ strike. In other words, though quoted prices might be higher. demand, and thus production and sales, would fall off quantitatively An additional problem was therefore ao raise the general level' of incomes with prices.

REVEALS ARMY FEAREDPROBE MacArthur Asked Du Ponts to Keep Data Secret, Committee Finds. By I nitrd Prrsx WASHINGTON, Sept. 13—Evidence of an agreement that the Du Pont Company entered an agreement which gave it exclusive rights lor powder sales in Europe and South America and that W’ar time bonuses of $17,000,000 went to Du Pont executives was laid before the senate muntions investigation today. The powder sales agreement was entered into between Du Pont and the Imperial Chemical Industries Ltd., in 1932, it was testified, the I. C. I. reserving Asia as its territory. The bonuses ranged from $171,000 in 1914 to a high of $6,514,000 in 1916 when the E. I. Du Pont De Nemours Company was selling great qualities of explosive to the allies. The committee also learned today that the war department on Aug. 8, 1934, instructed the Du Pont Company "to safeguard" from committee investigators documents w’hich might reveal secret w r ar plans of this country. Major K. K- V. Casey, director of sales of smokeless pow’der for the Du Ponts, testified that General Douglas MacArthur, chief of staff, advised the company to take precautions to see that “secret data” was not made public.

wand, to raise all incomes by just that economic proportion which would still have left ali industries with a sufficient profit incentive, and yet to have kept demand-in-general moving parallel with prices. No such wand waving, however, was possible, and since the American trade unions were weak, and could not quickly force employers to give them a larger share in their gross incomes, it was thought necessary to adopt some plan for quickly raising wages parallel with prices. Otherwise, unless workers struck for higher wages, or employers became charitable, wages would not themselves began to rise until industry and employment had so expanded that employers themselves started bidding up wages. Such a process, however, normally takes a few years. The President therefore decided on quicker action, and as a result, the •codes" were instituted. The methods adopted were roughly as follows: It was arranged for manufacturers to peg prices at given levels, thus to some extent departing from the existing American -law* against

agreements concerning price fixing; but at the same time a higher scale of wages was imposed on industry, in order to increase general incomes. The employers agreed because they liked high fixed prices; the workers agreed because they liked higher wages. Nearly five hundred' industries were eventually covered. In addition, so as to shift some of the cost of unemployment relief directly away from the government on Uy industry, and also in order to spread employment more widely, the President insisted on a policy of shorter hours so’ as to lead to the absorption of additional labor. These actions, of course, as Roosevelt doubtless realized at the time, were bound to reduce his personal popularity. mam WHEN he first came into office, and when prices were rising in advance of wages, all capitalists and speculators declared that his policy was sound, for inventory write-offs were no longer required and wholesale profit margins increased. i

LABOR PARLEY CHEERS MINTON Robinson’s Failure to Send Greeting Stirs Comment at Session. BY JAMES DOSS Time* Staff Writer SOUTH BEND, Sept. 13—The name of Sherman Minton, Democratic nominee for United States senator, was greeted with thunderous applause here yesterday by members of the Indiana Federation of Labor W’hen his greeting was read at the annual convention. Mr. Minton’s telegram of greeting was read with others and there was a buzz of comment among the delegates when it was noted that Senator Arthur R. Robinson. Mr. Minton’s Republican opponent, had failed to take note of the convention. There was some conjecture among the delegates as to whether Senator Robinson’s oversight had been intentional, in view of a recent episode at Indianapolis which many observers regarded as politically significant. This was when James Shanessy, barbers’ international union president, introduced Mr. Minton at the barbers’ convention as “the next United States senator from Indiana." Mr. Shanessy went even further, pointing out himself that such an action before the convention was (Turn to Page Three) FOOTBALL PLAYER HURT Robert Bates, 17, in Hospital, Is Season's First Casualty.

• However, as soon as he started to raise the wage levels of workers and to shorten hours capitalists began to accuse him of socialistic tendencies; they said that he was taking away ! with one hand the benefits that he lhad recently given with the other. They objected, moreover, to the jolts ito industry caused by shorter hours, and accused him and Johnson of harmful interference, and of a dangerous desire to usurp too much power. Workers, meanwhile, complained of the higher cast of living; they said that the* new policy of betterment was failing. : No one, in fact, gave Roosevelt credit for seeing that if general prices were raised incomes would have to be kept parallel with prices if any continued good trade was to result; and very few people saw that, even though the individual profit margin per article in each single industry was being lowered bv higher wages the plan was at the same time tending to raise total profits per factory by raising the wages in “other" industries, and. therefore, tT am 4® -Fare *eej

Roosevelt Prepared to Move Federal Army, Into Strife-Torn Rhode Island to Halt Wave of Violence. 3,000 SOLDIERS AWAIT CHIEF'S CALL Legislature Meets to Draw Up Appeal sor 11 Presidential Aid; Union Refuses to ■ Put Halt to Picketing. By Cnitn l Presx PROVIDENCE, R. 1„ Sept. 13.—Federal troops will he called to the Rhode Island strike area as soon as the legislature's approval of the request is obtained, Governor Theodore F. Green announced shortly after 2 p. m. today. HYDE PARK, N. Y„ Sept. 13.—President Roosevelt is prepared to move federal troops into strike-torn Rhode Island if the occasion arises, although no orders for them ha\e yet been issued, it was learned today. An official White House statement said:

“The President is in complete and constant touch with the Fvhode Island situation. It is, of course, hoped that disorders caused by irresponsible and disorderly individuals will terminate before night fall. ’ It was explained that the President could not call troops on thp appeal of Governor Theodore F. Green alone when the legislature of the state is in session. The Rhode Island legislature now is sitting. That bodv, it was added, would have to make the appeal through £f formal resolution. In sources close to the summ°r White House, it was clearly indicated that Mr. Roosevelt would act. and act promptly should the legislature put in its request. Three thousand troops are reported ready for duty in the district. As the long-distance telephones between Rhode Island and Hyde Park hummed almost constantly, there was a tense atmosphere here in expectation of definite action on the part of the President. Picketing to Continue By l nitrri Prrsx WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—Textile strike leaders refused today to recall pickets in Rhode Island in response to a request from Governor Thfco- , dore F. Green. j Governor Green has advised President Roosevelt of the strike crisis in his state, and reported a promise of tederal troops if national guardsmen, world w r ar veterans, and augmented state police fail to cope with the situation in Rhode Island mill towns. The United Press learned that federal troops are ready to move by 3 p. m. “All disorders will stop when the mills close. Our organization insists upon the right to picket without interference," Francis J. Gorman. strike leader, telegraphed Governor Green. The strike leader’s stand came after union chiefs conferred with President William Green of the American Federation of Labor and while the army general staff met to draft plans for possible mobilization of troops. Riots and looting in three Rhode Island towns last night resulted in one death and wounding of scores of strikers in textile battles with guardsmen. Federal peace efforts by President Roosevelt's special mediation board meanw’hile had broken down. Gorman appealed to all strikers — union and non-union—to “make no resort to violence." Gorman asserted in reply to Governor Green’s telegram asking that demonstrations end at Woonsocket, that the Woonsocket Rayon Plant, pivot of the rioting, “has fought the union for months." Picket Is Killed By I nitrri Prrsx WOONSOCKET R 1., Sept. 13 The first killing in the New England textile strike occurred here early today in a savage clash between national guardsmen and 5.000 strikers in which six other persons were shot. The slain man w’as identified as Jude Courtemanche. He was found on Social street, where the rioters had stood their ground against volley after volley of rifle fire, w’ith a bullet wound in his abdomen. He died at a hospital. Four of the other six wounded were reported in a serious condition at the hospital. In addition to these casualties, scores of combatants, both strike sympathizers and militiamen, were injured by clubs and brickbats. The street fighting here, which flared suddenly, was even more savage than that at not-torn Saylesville. a few miles away, where three pickets were shot, two perhaps fatally, and a guardsman revtrely injured. Strike sympathizers reported in a critical condition at Woonsocket hospital were: Edgar Bruneau. 18. shot in groin. Leon Rouette. 18. shot in abdomen. Wilfred Methot, 34, shot in shoulder and lung. Meanwhile, three other stnke sympathizers, shot by guardsmen in the Saylesville rioting, were reported near death at Notre Dame hospital. Central Falls.

Nicholas Grovelli. 22, Pawtucket, shot in right hand. Authorities feared even greater violence here tonight in view of the fact that early today a hardware store was raided and large quantities of guns and ammunition were stolen. Storm center of the strife here was the plant of the Woonsocket Rayon Company. All of its 300 employes remained at work, and until last night there had been no attempt at picketing. Last night the situation suddenly grew tense. A mob of 5,000 assembled near the plant and stoned police. Re-enforcements were rushed to the scene until the city’s entire force of sixty officers was on duty. Police Are Outnumbered Police, outnumbered nearly 100 to 1. were helpless, and a call went out for the militia. Some 400 of the 1.200 guardsmen on duty at Saylesville were dispatched to Woonsocket. For hours the rioters, both men and women, many of them in their 'teens, kept this industrial city in an uproar. They raced through the streets, attacking guardsmen and police, wrecking plate-glass windows and the windows of homes, shattering' hundreds of street lights, and clothing stores. In their efforts to halt the rioting. militiamen first fired warning shots over the heads of the milling thousands. When they proved ineffective, the guardsmen fired point-blank. Their Springfield rifles crackled incessantly as they drove the mob into disorderly retreat. Unofficial estimates placed the loss by looting at $40,000. Some streets were transformed into lakes of flame when rioters covered them with stolen gasoline and ignited it. Scores of guardsmen and police were treated for minor, but painful injuries. Pickets Here Orderly Despite rioting and serious violence in textile strike centers in the east and south, striking employes of the Indianapolis Bleaching Company, 900 W'est Wabash strget. continued to picket in comparatively orderly fashion today. Workers going to and from work have been stoned however, according to police. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Key, 1416 North Mount street, mill workers, reported to police that their home had been stoned Last night by persons riding past in an automobile. Mr Key said that.he had fired several shot at the car with a pistol. Mrs. Key said that she had been threatened by a striker last week.
