HENRY STEVENS WILL A FORGE ISSUE WITH OFFICERS BY LEAVING
(By Associated Press) LAVALLETTE. N. J Nov. 7. Henry Stevens, brother ol Mrs. Frances Stevens-Hall, widow of the ,ReTEdward Wheeler Hall, who was murdered with Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt iMllls, near New Brunswick on Sept. 14, last, is disconcerted at the delay In the official inquiry and contemplates bringing matters to an issue by leaving town. Mrs. Ethel Stevens, his wife, said in an interview here today.
"We think that it is about time that we pull up our belongings and go away from here. Just to force an issue with the authorities, who are investigating the murder," she said. Stevens has told the investigators that he was fishing near Lavallette on the night of the murder and has furnished the names of several persons who he says saw him. Mrs. Jane Gib-4 son, fanner, has told the authorities that a man committed the murders and that he - was accompnied by a woman in a gray coat. Mrs. Stevens received the newspapermen in her home with cordiality and served them with sandwiches. She explained that her husband was across the bay but he could be reached -- my a system of signals she had arranged with him. Gave Up World Tour "We were ready to go on a worK tour when this thing happened," said - Mrs. Stevens, "but we gave It up be- ' cause we thought it would be better for Henry to' stay here and face whatever was in store for him. Now, however, we think the authorities have had time enough to act and we think that the best way to force: them to do something will be for us to leave town and start our trip.' ' rt . "The question has often been asked. - - why didn't Henry give his sister away ; in marriage. When Mr. Hall and Mrs. r Hall were married Henry was in New England. There was nothing in coramon between Henry and Mr. Hall and for that reason he made no special effort to attend the wedding. It is untrue that he refused to call on the
Halls since the wedding. There Is an
' entry in his diary for June 23. It says: '" -'Edward and Frances here. which
irtans that they spent the afternoon
here.
"I believe the solution of this crime has not even been hinted at yet. Has
anyone thought of looking up other mn who might have figured in Mrs. Mills' life?"

been supplying electric service" to the
town for two years.. The Interstate
rates are also less than those which are set forth in the contract, which
Ashe says he secured from Cass.
Terms of Contract The town board invited the Inter
state company to submit a contract
proposal at its meeting Monday nigh
The contract the company prepared provides a service charge of $2 per k.-w. hour, per month. The energy rates follow: First 5,000 k. w. hours, 4 cents. Next 5,000 k. w. hours, 3 cents. AH over 10,000 Hours, 2V4 cents. It is stipulated in the contract proposal, however, that in no event shall both the service and energy charges, inclusive, exceed 3V2 cents per k. w hour. The town is to guarantee that It will purchase at least $200 of current per month. As a part of the contract the company agrees to build and install at its own expense a transformer which will deliver current to the town at 2,300 voltage. Inasmuch as Hagerstown has a "di
rect current transmission system, not
a standard service, it will be neces
sary for the town to transform the sys
tem for he transmission of alternating
current, involving, particularly, the in
stallation of new meters. It has been
estimated that it will cost approxi
mately $5,000 to rehabilitate the trans
mission system. Consumes 12,000 K. W.
The average monthly consumption
of electricity in Hagerstown has ap
proximated 12,000 k. w. Since the town ceased to generate current at the municipal plant it has been paying a local factory 6 cents per k. w. hour,
amounting to $720 each month. Under
the proposed Interstate contract the town will pay 3 cents per k. w. hou amounting to $420 per month, or $300 less than it is now paying. Of course, local consumers, who buy their electric service from the town, will benefit by lower rates in the same proportion the town benefits. At the meeting Monday night the board reviewed the valuation recently placed on the local municipal plant, amounting to $12,000, and member were agreed that the valuation was abnormally high. Review Rates. The board also reviewed the rates and service guarantees set forth in the contract which Ashe says he obtained from Cass. The members noted that not only were the Ashe rates higher than those proposed by the Interstate, but that the Ashe contract makes no provision for the installation of a transformer by the Ashe company; and a reduction of the voltage supplied by the Ashe service would be necessary. Interstate company and town attorneys are agreed that any litigation now pending in the Wayne circuit court involving Ashe and the town of Hagerstown, would in no way prevent the carrying out of the contract which . the town , and the Interstate company propose to enter into.

The Lost Needle
rYy HERE'S an old English play known as ''Gammer Garton's Needle". Its plot is woven around the loss of the family neeclle no trifling misfortune in the days of old. Today, in this era of ours, life is so rich m comforts that we seldom wonder how folks got along in the ancient world. And we sometimes forget what an important role advertising has played in making life pleasant and altogether livable. Advertising has one of the leading parts in the eternal drama of dollars. To it is directly due much of the multiplication of products and services which has come about during the last half century. . . It has smoothed the mechanics of existence made life easier and more pleasant by bringing countless necessities once considered luxuries within our easy reach and into continuous use. Think of this when you read these columns. You owe much to advertising. And You Miss Much When You Fail to Read It? THE RICHMOND PiTJ,AJ)IUM
