DAD'S ADMISSION N BEFORE JURY TE. PLAINS, N. Y., Sept. 21. After S. Ward's verbal admits that it was he who shot and killed Clarence M. Peters, 19-year-old Haverhill, Mass., sailor, on the night of May 15, 1922, was placed before the jury trying him on charges of first degree murder today. Sheriff George Werner was the witness who gave a graphic description of the scene the night of May 22, 1922, when Ward surrendered, and his story was told. "Attorney Allan R. Campbell, representing Ward, did this talking, Ward sitting beside him," said Werner. "Campbell said that on the night of May 15, Ward met three fellows by appointment on the road between White Plains and Port Chester." Peters, who was one of the three, had some difficulty opening the door of Ward's car, according to the sheriff, and while he did, the attorney said, got his gun-out. Ward, he said, reached over and grabbed Peters by the wrist. Peters' gun exploded; the attorney explained, Ward told him Peters was standing there with one foot in the road and the other foot.

REGIONAL PLAN WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.—President Coolidge has decided to abandon one of the big policies of the late President Harding — that of compelling the railroads of the country to consolidate into regional systems, it was learned today from authoritative sources. It is the first of the late President's major policies to go into the discard under the new administration. Regional consolidation was the remedy for the railroad problem favored by Mr. Harding and Senator Cummins, Republican, of Iowa, chairman of the interstate commerce committee. It furnished the keynote for all of the late president's utterances on transportation matters during his fatal western trip. He dealt with it specifically and at length in Kansas City. It now appears extremely unlikely that Congress will be asked to pass upon the plan at all. Various reasons are assigned for the abandonment of the proposal: 1. The strong opposition of most of the railroads themselves. 2. The even more strenuous opposition of the so-called La Follette group in the new Congress shared, too, by many of the more conservative western senators. 3. The feeling on the part of President Coolidge and some of his advisers that the best thing to do with the railroads at this time is to go slow in the matter of legislation. Voluntary consolidation is now permitted under the transportation act for those roads that want it, and it is felt that to stage a fight for PURNELL APOSTLE ASKS DISSOLUTION GRAND KAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 21. Miss Estelle Mildrum, follower of the House of David, filed suit in the U.S. court here today for dissolution of the House of David colony in Benton Harbor and appointment of a receiver for the extensive properties of the order. The suit is the first of its nature ever commenced by one of his own apostles against "King Benjamin Purnell." It cites Mrs. Meldrum's daughter, Edith, as an "officer, executive director, trusted consultant, adviser and intimate of Benjamin Purnell." compulsory consolidation at this time would be fraught with more danger than a majority in the Congress cares to excite. For a month past, prominent railroad officials have been quietly dropping in to the White House to see President Coolidge. They have not descended in a body, but in groups of two and three. These railroad officials have informed Mr. Coolidge they want nothing from the new Congress except to be let alone. They are satisfied with the transportation act as it now stands, and they have told him that if the Congress will only stop "tinkering" with the roads for a while, they can "come back" of their own accord. It is recognized, however, that the transportation act is to be subjected to a grand assault in the new Congress by the so-called "radicals," led by Senators La Follette, Brookhart, et al. There will be fighting enough in Congress, anyway, in view of the widespread demand for a general revision of freight rates. downe large Lots to $985 NONE HIGHER hundred Lots at $500 or Less s $25 Down and $7 per Month Such Prices, Such Terms——Never Again LED STREETS, PAVED, SIDEWALKS, SEWTRICITY, TELEPHONES, MAIL DELIVERY, BUS SERVICE by two Stages to Los Angeles and boulevards, just a few moments out from the center of every lot in the tract remaining unsold on October 10 IME TO BUY.
