MADDENED MO FIGHTS ARMY N TIA JUANA Enraged M and Wadasd Shout for Blood of Slayer-Ravishers TIA JUANA, Mexico. Feb. 15.—A ccreaming and raging mob of men and women seeking vengeance for the slaying and ravishing of an eight year old today fought a pitched battle with soldiers. The little girl whose death in- censed the crowd, was Olga Coma- cho, the daughter of a bartender She had been kidnaped Sunday and was found this morning in a de- serted cabin, nude and evidently strangled to death. The mob sought several men held for the crime in the Federal build- ing jail and set fire to that struc- ture. Three were seriously wounded as approximately 1000 wild shots were fired. It is estimated the crowd num- bered about 800. FARMER TURNS CORN TO GOLD ENNIS, Texas, Feb. 15.—Sixteen dollars and fifteen cents for an ear of corn! That is the record made by S. Sibley, farmer, near here. The ear won $9 in premiums at various fairs and then was auctioned by grains and brought an additional $7.15. In one year Sibley and his family won more than $700 in fair pre- miums in Ennis, Dallas, Fort Worth and Waco. Sibley specializes in raising qual- ity farm products. In 1933 he raised 12 bales .of cotton in 10 acres, whereas the average of the county is between a fourth and a third of a bale to the acre. He ascribes his success to his seed, rotation of crops, good fertilizer, and early plowing. Had it not rained one day in the fall of 1924, Sibley perhaps would not have become interested in be- ing other than a tenant farmer. Having nothing to do when it rain- ed, he took some chickens to' the Ellis county fair and won $20 in premiums. ‘Woman's Automobile Unionists Call at ;Whité AI;Iourse ¢ ¢ > Richard ¥rankensteen ° Homer Martin William Munger Jed Louck Workers’ union, | work-relief spending Left to right, Richard the steps of the with President creased federal Frankensteen, vice president; Homer Martin, presi- dent; William Munger, research manager, and Jec Louck, an economist. 60LD PROGRAM " MAKING MORE CASH TO LOAN Will Give Banks Large: Funds for Use of Busi- nessmen, Others A Welfare Song 10 PASSENGERS, FOUR OF CREW DOWN IN PLANE Hopes Abandoned for Ital- 1an Airliner Caught n Mediterranean Storm Feb, ‘Ten CAGLIARI, Italy, .
