Grocer Gives Lead
The information which led police| to believe she might have been! the victim of a robber was the story of a neighborhood grocery owner, Jerry Eaton, of Jerry's Market, 305 W. 31st St. Mr. Eaton said Mrs. Richard-
He said he offered to bring the money to her, as he often did, but Mrs. Richardson replied: “No, I've got a boy driving for me today. I'll be down.”
Woman Signs Check
He said he saw the semi-in-valid's car drive up a short time later.
an envelope. The driver brought the check to Mr. Eaton who placed $40 in the envelope. Mr. Eaton said he then saw the man return to the car, hand Mrs, Richardson the money and drive away. He said Mrs. Richardson waved to him as they drove away. Neighbors who found Mrs. Richardson Saturday morning said her empty purse was open on the floor of an adjoining rear porch. There was no trace of the $40 in it or in other purses in an apen dresser drawer.
Front Door Ajar
Neighbors, who said they “keep an eye” on the elderly woman, noticed the front door standing ajar Saturday. They investigated since Mrs. Richardson, who lived alone, always kept the house locked. At first it was believed Mrs. Richardson, victim of arthritis and failing eyesight, might have fallen and injured herself. However, the later development caused police to launch a thorough investigation. Police said Mrs. Richardson depended on neighbors to drive her car for her or frequently hired neighborhood youths to take her on errands. Her insurance annuity was her principal source of income, they said.

“The internationalization of Jerusalem is without justice or fairness to either Jews or Arabs,” Mr. Lipsky said. “It is an artificial device contrived without thought. wn “The United Nations has no competence to become guardians of people. It has no governing mechanics. “Neither Jews nor Arabs wish to become wards of the world. Churches shouldn't be satisfied with internationalization of Jerusalem, either.” The veteran Zionist leader said, “to deprive Israel of Jerusalem is an ipcongruity of monstrous proportions. “The United States is in error in buying friends in Asia Minor.” The 72-year-old national chairman spoke highly of Israel's ability to absorb its Jewish DP's but he stated there is still need for great financial aid from American Jewish welfare agencies.
