CLAIM GIRL, 13, TOOK OWN LIFE Police Theory, However, Is Disputed by Wealthy Parents of Victim. By United Press ABINGTON, Pa., April 17.—Authorities believed today that 13-year-old Nancy Haines, daughter of a wealthy, society family, killed herself. What impelled her, if she did so was a mystery. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Haines Jr., told authorities that Nancy's death “undoubtedly was accidental.” “There is no doubt that this is a case of suicide,” Police Chief Patrick McKee said. Nancy was found last night in her bedroom in the Haines mansion at Meadowbrook. Nearby was her father's .32-caliber pistol. Tne bullet had entered her brain above the right ear. A few hours before hej- body was found, Nancy walked into the room of her brother, George, 16. “George.” she said, “how much iodine would it take co kill a person?” “I don't know,” George replied, “I guess not much.” “I want to put some on my toes,” she said, and left.

COUNTY WHEAT CROP IS CUT BY SEVERE WINTER

Yield to Be One-Fourth Less Than Usual, Abbott Thinks. Marion County’s wheat yield probably will suffer about 25 per cent due to the severe winter, Horace E. Abbott, county agricultural agent, said today. The county has had plenty of rain and the wheat crop now needs sunshine and warm weather to prevent the loss from being any greater, Mr. Abbott said. The couhty wheat crop was less affected by the winter than was the wheat in some other parts of Indiana, the agent said. The amount destroyed ranged from 10 per cent in the southern third of the state to 50 per cent or more in west central and northern Indiana, according to examinations of fields and experimental farm tests by agronomists of the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station. Many fields are spotted and the surviving wheat is thin. Favorable weather conditions are necessary, to make sufficient recovery to produce a crop. Ice Injury Is Indicated All varieties, including some hard wheats that are very cold resistant, were killed on the experiment farm at Lafayette, indicating that this winter’s severe damage was due largely to ice injury rather than the usual cold injury. Fertilized wheat seeded in soybean stubble, in standing corn or with other organic cover, suffered much less than unfertilized areas on well-prepared bare seedbeds. Recording thermometers on the Purdue experiment farm showed a temperature of 20 degrees above zero one inch under the surface of the ground with the outside temperature 20 below zero as long as the ground was well covered with snow. When the snow melted and a heavy sheet of ice remained an outside temperature of eight below zero produced an underground reading of one above zero. The severe killing apparently did not occur until the continued low temperatures accompanied the heavy ice sheet. Little damage is shown by wheat along woods and grown up fence rows where snow drifted and persisted. BACKEDTOR U. S. JUDGE Fort Wayne C. of C. Urges Appointment of Attorney.

APRIL 17,1936

College economics professor, gave ' this message to American Business " Club members here yesterday. “We will have to change our tive in business. I believe in thevalidity of profits but we will havei to predicate those profits on a dif-_ ferent system” he said. “Even before we attempt this we • must, in order to survive, rid ourselves of the spirit of disillusionment. and the hatred that has come on the heels of the depression. W . suffered material losses and we were" not prepared for it. “There is no reason for this dis- - illusionment; we have not lost those 7 fundamental sources from whence our prosperity came.” Prof. Schutz declared that dis- * illusionment fosters distrust and . lack of confidence. He said that lack of confidence bred anarchy and was the basic reason why we have a threat of war in Europe today.
