Missing Man's Wife Leaves
Note Hinting Of Threats;
Bribe Offer Alleged.
CHICAGO~May 20.—(P)
—Robert E. Crowe, prosecu-
tor in the trial of William
Darling Shepherd on a charge
of slaying his foster son, Wil-
liam Nelson McClintock, with
typhoid germs, is determined
to locate Robert White, one
of the state’s chief witnesses,
whose disappearance has
brought the first sensation of
the trial.
। information has been obtained that
White, with his wife and two chil-
dren, abandoned his home and van-
ished with a rented automobile last
Friday. A letter written by Mrs.
White to Mrs. Marie Budlove, a friend,
said “we had to leave; our lives were
in danger.”
Letter Left Behind
Mrs. Budlove has turned the letter
over to the prosecutor. He said every
effort would be made to find White
and when he is found “there will be
action," he warned. He put several
detective squads on the search and a
police message was broadcast asking
White’s detention if located.
The Chicago Herald and Examiner
says it learned from William Adams, a
blind news vender of an alleged 123,000
offer made to White ten days ago to
leave for Florida. The offer Included
a furnished bungalow which would be
given him on his arrival there, Adams
said White told him.
Body Guar of Faiman
Adams quoted White as saying he
j would accept “if they mean business."
White was known as the body guard
of C. C. Falman, science school head,
who confessed he supplied typhoid
fever germs to Sherherd and taught
him how no administer them.
White and Shepherd at one time
nearly came to blows when they con-
fronted each other and White idlenti-
tied Shepherd as the man he had seen
at Falman's school.
Day's Session Delayed
The search for White had delayed
convening of the trial today subordin-
a ted Interest In the selection of jury-
men. Thirty-six veniremen have been
examined to obtain three tentative
jurors, thirteen being excused by

defense.

MIDDLEBURY. Vt„ May 20,- (A--
Three weeks ago armed posses, o1
dereAto shoot and kill, hunted Earl
Woodward as a kidnaper. Today Jie
was at liberty, and 11-year-old Lucille
Chatterton of Granville, whom he
was charged with kidnaping, re-
joiced with him.
The action, which meant a new
chapter in life for Woodward, was
taken yesterday by Judge Albert W.
Dickins, who, after hearing testi-
many. decided that the prisoner
should not be held for trial, and dis-
missed him for lack of evidence.
Woodward, who worked as a farm
hand for Walter Chatterton, Lucille's
father, disappeared from Granville
with the girl April 24. On May 1 a
police dog led 1he searchers to the
man and girl in a barn near* East
Brookfield.
Woodward declared he had taken
Lncill away to give her proper
schooling. The girl, corroborating his
story, said he had treated her kindly.
Last week Woodward was tried and
freed on a charge of stealing Chatter-
ton’s rifle, and yesterday s denoue-
ment ended the story.

Many, Cities Join Campaign
Against Sale Of Salacious
Magazines.
CHICAGO, May 20.—(A)—
A wide-spread drive against
salacious magazines is indi-
cated in reports from cities
throughout the country.
From Washington city to Washing-
ton state, officials have taken action
to have barred from newsstands publi-
cations which they say contain ob-
scene pictures and reading matter.
Ten popular priced magazines were
ordered withdrawn from sale in Wash-
ing last week. District Attorney Gor-
don, asserting that the list furnished
dealers was merely a preliminary one
and that forty or more publications
were to be examined. The district at-
torney acted as censor at the request
of newsdealers after prosecution had
been threatened.
Plan State-Wide Fight
County prosecuting attorneys of the
state of Washington are planning a
statewide fight against indecent publi-
cations and have called a meeting for
Friday at Spokane to discuss the situ-
aiion. Twenty magazines have been
barred from newsstands at Spokane by
Charles H. Lea by, prosecutor of Spo-
kane county.
At Omaha, County Aitorney Beal
referred to federal authorities com*
plaints of highschool teachers that
periodicals containing salacious stories
and obscene pictures had been found
in the schools.
. e Break Children’s Morale
"Such magazine, in my opinion, are
doing more to break down the morale
of the children than anything else,’
Beal said. “If there is any way I
might bring prosecutions in these
cases, I most certainly would do so."
Acting on a request from Federal
Judge James H. Wilkerson at Chicago.
James A. O’Callaghan. assistant
United States district attorney, began
a drive here to rid the malls and
newsstands of such publications. In u
communication to the postmaster gen-
eral at Washington, he named about
twenty publications, with a circulation
of nearly 1,000,000, which he contended
were indecent.

Commissioners Do Not See
Sufficient Ground For
Starting Action.
Oklahoma county commis-
sioners will not order suit filed
against M. S Ryan, county
treasurer, on ihe charges
brought by George Mechling,
state examiner and inspector,
it was indicated Wednesday.
Attorneys ar the courthouse are
still looking up points of law, but
legal findings so far lead commission-
ers to believe that Ryan's sureties
could not be made defendants in a
suit, even if all of Mechling’s charges
are correct.
The state examinei claims the
county lost 1114,000 through Ryan's
failure to collect penalties on taxes. 1
Ryan denies this with the allega- 1
tion that the state examiner did not
probe deep enough to find that pay-
ments made by mail on time were
not entered until some time after the
penalty date, due tn rhe rush of tak-
ing care of taxpayers who paid sn
l person.
J. K. Wrizht, county attorney. D
cf the opinion that no crimina}
charges could be brought on th- ali
legations of Mechling. /
