But always he came back to the jobs-and-employment theme, the one which, probably more than the others, interested these thousands of workers and their families. Carefully he developed again the need to get the country’s productive machinery going in the peace-time “:days ahead, urged the need for keeping down taxes so that enter-

Points Out Friendship

It was this ex-WAAC who pointed out the close friendship between Opl. Ridings and the WAC who registered at the Claypool with Miss Ridings on July 24. At the same time, the ex-WAAC emphasized a point that is becomincreasingly important in the newest investigation brought to a high point this week by Luallen’s

Drinks With Opl. Ridings

' After drinking with Cpl. Ridings and a woman in black named Dorothy, Luallen said, he cut Cpl. Ridings’ throat with a sharp sliver from a broken whisky bottle. The ex-WAAC who is aiding authorities pointed out today that it was the habit of many service wom--ien to come to Indianapolis for a week-end, slip out of their uniforms and change to street or evening garments. ‘Investigators now are operating on the assumption that the woman in black in Cpl. Ridings’ room may have been a WAC acquaintance who changed from G. I.- to civilian

“It is remarkable,” the ex-WAAC said today, “that the description of the woman in black given by Bell-

boy Alfred Bayne corresponds to|

that of the WAC who was registered at the Claypool on July 24 and later left the organisation.” A WAC by the name of Dorothy, who was registered as a Tth floor guest at. the Claypool on the ht of the murder, was located at Harrison today. She Ilaughlingly said she was not acquainted with Cpl, Ridings. “At the time of the murder; as disclosed by the autopsy,” she sald, “I was visiting

Lusallen was composed and curiously interested throughout the entire proceedings and his chief concern after they were over seemed to be the fate of his former wife, Wynona, who still remains in jail under a charge of collaborating with him in a series of burglaries. Attaches at the sheriff's office said today that the one-time bitterness between the Luallens had disappeared and the woman had been heard to remark, “We might get married again.” The sheriff's office stated today that it had made ‘no progress in its hunt for the WAC skirt and broken whisky bottle which Luallen claimed to have thrown over a fence near the river in Broad Ripple following the murder. The investigators were buoyed yesterday following a conference

The party leaders, however, say that the Republican party “will have to. go along” because of the precedent” set by Governors Dewey of New York and Kelly of Michigan who also called special sessions to extend the voting hours.

“There is considerable sentiment among the Republicans to compromise by only extending the voting 8 hours until 8 p. m. Alternate bills are being drafted by Atty. Gen. James A. Emmert, House Speaker Hobart Creighton and Lt. Gov. Charles Dawson so that any. decision made by the G. 0. P. caucus here tomorrow can quickly be thrown into the legislative hopper.

The party will proceed by train to Springfield, Mass, abandoning an “earlier idea of motoring from Hartford to Springfield.

Walsh to Join Him

The President said Senator David I. Walsh (D. Mass.) would board the presidential train at Worcester, Mass, ; Mr. Roosevelt's decision to appeal for time off for employees to vote stemmed from a large num-

and organizations asking him to say something. The President said that inasmuch as there is a general feeling that soldiers should have the opportunity to ‘vote, certainly -workers in this

Faith in ‘Congress

Congress, Mr. ‘Roosevelt said, rdemonstrated that it would work with the administration on foreign policy when it passed last year the Connally and Fulbright resolutions “which pledged this nation to cooperate in a world organization of peace. The chief executive opened his address by saying that the exigencles of war had prevented him from making a personal swing to Cleveland, Detroit and upstate New York as he had desired. “I find,” he said, “that I am not free to spare the time right now. Therefore, I am speaking to you from the White House, . . , I follow the principle of first things first, and this war comes first.” «Declaring that the war against Japan is “many months ahead of our- own. optimistic schedule, Mr, Roosevelt paid high praise to Amer-
