Police officiais in Arlington county are investigating the discovery of a baby's body more than a month ago In the vicinity of “jazz beacl about five miles from Alexandria, where Sheriff A. C. Clements buried the child without reporting the matter to the county officials. A formal Inquiry will be |uken up by Frink L. Ball, commonwealth at- torney, following the report of a special jury meeting tonight at 7:30 o'clock, called by €oroner H. B. vain. Members of this jury include 0. Boxley, H. B. Angelo, Lyman &vell\'_ A. M. Dawson and John W. se. * Notified Sheriff. According to Alexander Carter of Hume Springs, who found the body of a child, apparently about five months old, on May 1, he immediately notified Sheriff Clements and brought him to the place. There, Carter stated, the sheriff examined the body and buried it a few feet away in a pasteboard box and towel, bearing the initials “J. M." which had been found newr the body. Having learned of the story and finding that no report had been made at the courthouse at Fort Myer Heights, Howard Smoot, special state officer, summoned Coroner Swain last night and went with him to the grave, where the body was exhumed and taken to an undertaking establish- ment in_Clarendon... Bruce Smoot, Willlam ¥. Gray, H. T. MacFall. John King, James Carter, Alexander Carter and Willlam Wertz accompanied them. Coroner Swain stated that he be- Heved the child to hawe been about five months old and had died from a slashed threat Sheriff Clements said today that he had been called to the scene where the baby's body had been found last month and had buried it. He added. howcver, that it was his belief that the child was still born. He also de- clared thuat there was no cut across the child's throat. “I did not belleve there was any necessity in reporting the matter at all.” he said “The whole affair is a frame-up to purposely discredit me. 1 would not beo surprised if the Ku Klux Klan out here were back of it THE WEATHER trict of Columbla—Fair tonight and tomorrow; rising temperature; moderate northwest winds. aryland—Fair tonight and tomor- row; cooler tonight, except in west vland; moderate northwest winds.

An appropriation of $291,000 was voted to cover the ex- pense of employing these 119 work- ers. Secretary Work announced, however, that $55.000 of this sum would be turned back to the Treas- ury, representing the sum the bureau had saved by careful selection of the force.
