PERRY KILLER HAS CONFESSED Death of Miserly Character| at Last Solved After Two Years CLE ELUM,; Wash, Jan. 14— Special to Empire)—Solving a two- year-old mystery, Lee Harrison, 40, | Selah laborer, admits shooting of Abram G. Perry, rich recluse and Cle Elum second hand dealer, ac- cording to ‘Sheriff Art Byars. Harrison has been lbdged in jail at Ellensburg and will be bound over to thie Buperior Court. Joseph McCauley, state patrol in- vestigator, says Harrison admitted | that he shot and robbed Perry and that a conversation overheard in Yakima furnished the clew that led to Harrison’s arrest. Tales of Perry’s hoarcing prac- tices are blamed for his death.

Bur- dick, Administrative Assistant, for the United States Forest Service here. Mr. Holbrook has been absent for |about six weeks on a combined leave and business trip, in econ- nection with forestry affairs. — el | Forest work normally gives em- | ployment to 1,500,000 people, and in addition sale and transportation of forest products supplies jobs to ‘500‘000. — Loans for Modernization| Develop New Ave- nues for Banks The modernization credit pro- grany of the Federal Housing Ad- ministration, which will continue in cperation throughotit 1935, is nent system of consumer which will see the banks and other financial institutions of the coan- try doing business in strictly chax acter loans long after the mod ernization sions of the is the of Federa Adm James A who in a recent his Housmg fett, laying the foundation of a perma- | credit | address | | i | Government | housands ial kind of finanmc- few of them ed. “It of | pre-: would' be | e to the country| CA to industry if this r lending came to a stop ay of 1935, Mr. Moffett at it will not come to a stop, we are convinced.” Goosd Business ‘The Housing Administrator believes the bank arned that it is H lend money regardless of whether er wants to izing his home, else.

Borrowers are given up to five years to repay these loans in reg- ular periodic installments. Records Consulted “Before offering to insure these loans,” Mr. Moffett points out, “Uncle Sam consuited the country’s records cn installment buying. He asked what had been the experi- ence of the few banks which up to ring had made character from the banks and from commercial organizaticns selling on the installment plans he learned that the average American is hon- est. “He learnad that, when an Amer- jcan with a steady job promises to pay 50 much a month until a cer- tain debt is satisfied, it is perfectly safe to assume that the promise will be kept. Getting down to the bed rock of figures, the banks re- ported that their loss from char- acter loans was just a little more than % of 1 percent. That per- centage is a handsome tribute to our national honesty. “Now we believe that by Decem- ber 31, 1935, the date of expiration of the modernization campaign, or even earlier, American citizens will | have proved over and over again | that they are honest in buying re- pairs for their homes on the in- stallment plan as they have been in buying sewing machines and radios on the installment plan.” .- eries of fossils in the ya region indicate the high- er primates or man-ape types orig- | in‘n,ed in this section of the world.

Left to BOND RECOVERY 'MARKS TRADING® IN *34 MARKETS By FRANK MacMILLEN | iated Press Financial Writer) (A | NEW YORK, Jan. 14, — Listed bonds experienced the most striking | be ry in recent financial hxwtolyi in 1934. | Prices began i> climb early last | January, in anticipation of stabili- | zation of the gold price at the end {of the month. The establishment |of the dollar on an international gold bullion standard at 59.06 per | cent of its old parity on January 131 quieted nervousness over the purchasing power of the currency, |and prompted a torrent of capital |into fixed income securities. Bonds climbed steadily until ear- { Iy summer, in some of the most ac- | tive :trading experienced in this department of the New York stock exchange since the heavy dealings | in Liberties in the years right after {the war. Many gilt-edged issues reached the highest prices of a generation. Value Roge 5%z Billion Despite some sethack from the; summer peak levels, the total quot- ed value of bonds listed on the New York stock: exchange as of December 1 was approximately | $39,665,000,000, up some $5,500,000,- | 000 from a year previous. | The reaction in late summer was | attributed to a partiaMy undigesteéd | mass of treasury guaranteed issues | overhanging the market, to inau- ! |guration of the silver purchase program which revived hmnmn' fears in some guarters, and to'un-! easiness over possible demands upon the government likely to re-! sult from the severe drought. I | The treasury's September 15 fi- | nancing to refund the $1,250,000,000 | of called 4% percent Fourth Liber- | | ties, was indifferently received. T ‘reqmred the unofficial assurance’ | of the administration that no fur- ther devaluation of the dollar was {in immediate prospect, and efforts | to reconcile the viewpoints of the government and the bankers, to set | the bond market again on an up- | ward course. | Best Levels of Year | | These reassuring moves, combin- | |ed with the continued pressure or, | the huge excess of bank reserves | and institutional funds seeking em- | ployment. rallied both corporate and government issues to close to the best levels of the year by early winter. Resumption of the upward move- ment was climaxed by the hearty lrweption tendered the government's | requirements for nearly $2,000,000,- 000 of new and refunded money at the December 15 financial period.
