- FEDERAL ATTORNEYS TRYING TO SHATTER ~ RS, WALEYS STORY 49-Year-Old Wife Contends She Knew Nothing of Wey- erhaeuser Abduction Tacoma, Wash., July 12.—()—Gov- ernment attorneys Friday turned a determined attack upon Mrs. Mar- garet Thulin Waley’s low-voiced de- nial that she took an active part in the $200,000 kidnaping of nine-year- old George Weyerhaeuser. U. 8. District Attorney J. Charles’ Dennis had ready a barrage of ques- tions intended to shatter the 19-year- old defendant's testimony that fugi- tive William Dainard, alias Mahan, and her husband were solely respon- sible. a Pictured heself as cringing un- ler Dainard’s threats of death and ptt implicitly his curt orders. “I was scared to do anything else,” she replied to a question of John F. Dore, chief defense counsel, on direct examination, Mrs. Waley’s story provided the cli- max to a swiftly moving chain of events at her trial Thursday, which included the kidnaping as described by the young victim and a futile de- fense attempt for a directed acquittal verdict. She said she knew nothing of the abduction until some time after it happened May 24, and never saw the boy, who, in his own testimony failed to identify her as one of the kid- napers. George said his captors were Dainard and Harmon M. Waley, the defendant’s husband, who pleaded guilty and received a 45-year sentence in McNeil Island federal prison. It was under fear of Dainard and the influence of her husband, Waley said, that she acted after she discovered the pair had kidnaped the boy and were holding him for $200,000 ransom, paid: fo, his release eight days after he was seized. The three attempts she made to plead guilty to the kidnap charge were inspired, she testified, by threats of department .f justice agents that if she did not they would try her under the Washington state law which provides hanging for kidnap- ing. THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JULY 12, 1985 She Let Rattlesnake Bite Her BEEBE DE LA FONTAINE New York, July 12.—(?)—Beebe de la Fontaine -either was nursing a double rattlesnake bite Friday or else Broadway had witnessed one of the most exciting hoaxes in years. Most observers agreed that the slim brunette dancer actually was bitten when she thrust her hand before the gaping jaws of a six-foot Florida rattler Thursday night in an effort to prove that a vegetarian diet had made her immune to its poison. But the skeptics, who were turned back when they sought to examine! the girl’s hand afterward, were not The performance, which kept a couple of hundred spectators on edge for several minutes, came as the climax of a health lecture by Dr. Lloyd C.

BUSINESS LEADERS LAUNCH OFFENSIVE ON NEW TAX PLAN Congress Cringes at Thought of New Flood of Telegrams From Nation Washington, July 12.—()—A “ip! tionwide offense which business lead- ers are conducting against President Roosevelt's new tax plan drew ex- pressions of apprehension Friday from some Democratic legislators considering the plan. They foresaw a new shower of tele- grams pouring down on Capitol Hill as the result of a country-wide dis- tribution by the Chamber of Com- merce of the United States of a state- ment attacking the tax program as destructive, confiscatory and a “per- version of the taxing power.” Such a revolt, they feared, might herald a furious new struggle center- ing upon a congress which has not yet finished with another titanic|/® conflict — the one over the utilities i bill. To Insist on Action Meanwhile, Democratic leaders de- nied flying rumors that the presi- dent’s plan for a “wider distribution of wealth” through high inheritance taxes, increased levies on gifts and large incomes and a graduated tax on corporate incomes would be delayed until a future cession of co! 5 They insisted that the plan would be pushed through this session, as agreed upon in two conferences be- tween the president and legislators in charge of the bill. The chamber will follow up its na- tion-wide action by sending repre- sentatives to a house ways and means | committee hearing Saturday to assail | the bill. “The urgent need at the present time,” said a statement it sent to its 1,500 member organizations, “is not more taxes on income but more in- come to tax.” The National Association of Manu- facturers also is fighting the taxes. Its counsel, James A. Amery, was on Friday’s list of witnesses in the house committee hearing.

I tried prseiealy: eyery cathartic without results. “Recently, I determined to give Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN a fair trial. Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN has not only helped me, but I believe it is an actual relief for chronic constipa- tion.*—Mr. Henry E. ur, 4 Vaughan Ave., Worcester, Mass. *Due to insufficient “bulk” in meals. Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN provides “bulk” to aid elimination. It also furnishes vitamin B and iron. The “bulk” in ALL-BRAN is gen- tle. Often more effective than “bulk” in fruits and vegetables, as it does not break down within the body. Isn't this natural food pleasanter than patent medicines? Just eat two tablespoonfuls daily. If not relieved, see your doctor. Get the red-and- green package at your grocer’s.

The 38-year-old ex-convict was a “misery chiseler” who had no part in the kidnaping and other mysterious disappearances, said J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the federal bureau of investigation. Hoover asserted he was “particularly vi- cious” and ‘made the arrest of the real kidnapers more diffi- cult.” Hoover announced the arrest in Atlantic City, N. J., Thursday night, and department of justice men here declined to amplify his statement. He had been seized at the ran- som rendezvous named in letters demanding $75,000 for the safe re- turn of 82-year-old Charles D. Towt of nearby Nyack. Towt. a retired broker, still is missing. Hoover said Wagner also had Misery Chiseler Is Held by ‘G’ Men on Extortion Charge demanded the $200,000 ransom tor George Weyerhaeuser of Tacoma, Wash., telling the lad’s family to ignore instructions which ulti- mately proved to be from the real kidnapers and led to the boy’s release. Other “chiseling” attempts which Hoover charged against the paroled Sing Sing prisoner were: For Dorothy Ann Distelhurst of Nashville, Tern., whose multi- lated body was found while her father was trying vainly to con- tact the kidnaper in New York, $50,000; For Mrs. Berry V. Stoll, Louisville, Ky., napers, $50,900; For William Weiss of Philadel- phia, kidnaped and slain, $50,000; For Mrs. Ann Booth Gordon of Farmington, Conn, found drowned in ‘ne Connecticut river, $25,000; For Jackie Kaul, New York boy who apparently was accidentally drowned, $15,000. of freed by her kid- Hettinger Druggist | Has Arm Amputated ee Brought to a local hospital in serious condition from “gas” in- fection, LeRoy Cady, Hettinger druggist, suffered amputation of his right arm Thursday evening. His condition was fair Friday morning, his surgeon said. The “gas” poisoning, a rare af- fliction in the United States, ac- cording to the surgeon, develop- ed from a minor injury suffered by Cady in his home four or five days ago. “Gas” poisoning is a form of blood poisoning in which gas is created in the infected por- tions of the body. ° | | + |Decision on Retrial Of Langer Expected Washington, July 12—(@)—A decis- jon by the department of justice as to retrial of former governor William Langer of North Dakota on charges of misusing federal funds still was Pending Friday. Attorney General Homer Cummings said, however, no appeal will be made to the supreme court over a circuit court verdict which set aside Lang- jer’s previous conviction. A retrial decision hangs on a sur- vey of evidence given before by the North Dakota District Court, Cum- mings said. He said an appeal would not be taken because the case involves largely a question of fact. INCOME TAX BRINGS STATE MORE MONEY Collections Advance as 2,000 Additional Persons File Returns for 1934 Basing the prediction on returns for the first half of the year, officials of the state tax commission estimate 1935 income taxes will total approxi- mately $100,000 more than last year. Collections to July 1 amounted to $211,220 compared with $119,458 for the six month period in 1934 with practically the entire increase attrib- uted to increases in returns of indi- vidual taxpayers. Also figuring in the increase was approximately 2,000 additional in- dividual returns filed this year over a year ago, the total approximating | 20,000 this year compared with 18,000 a year ago. The income taxes of individuals but returns of corporations remained the same as before. Tax officials said they conserva- tively estimated $260,000 in both in- dividual and corporation income taxes would be collected by the :nd of the year which compares with a total of $156,000 for last year, The department announced an in- tensive drive is being launched in cooperation with the state regulatory department to contact delinquent tax- payers who come under the law but have not filed returns, i They issued a warning that penalty for failure to file returns is five per cent of the tax and not less than one dollar and interest at one per cenit per month from the time the tax was originally due. A penaly of $10 to $1,000 is provided if fraud may be proven in connection with failure to file. 10,000 Mae PROVE were increased by the 1935 legislature OvFOR YOUR MONEY PAL’S CASH GROCERY "25c 28c 25c 19c 104 Main Phone 77 Corn, No. 2 can, 2 for ..
