LA FOLLETTE GROUP WILL PUSH FIGHT Progressives’ Resolution Calls for Continued Support of Late Senator’s Policies. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, August 1—Robert M Ls Follette, late Senator from Wiscon- sm, was hailed as “the statesman most nearly the type of Abraham Lincoln” in resolutions, prepared for introduc- tion at the La Follette memorial here today. Continued support was pledged to the aims and ideals of the Progrés- sive party. “La Follette saw his country drift- ing toward the gulf between the relent- less greed of cruel feudal industrial- ism, on the one hand, and destructive cemmunistic propaganda, on the ether.” th= resolution sald. *“He saw i%® might of privilege intrenched and buttressed by the powers of political DTy, of public office and a controlled | vress, He saw that while the political system was one of bestowing legisia- tive and other public favors to those already possessing swollen fortunes, the people as a whole have but small opportunity of sharing in those favors, and that hence corruption in govern- ment is the great and essentlal asset «f the private interests seeking these favors. Will Carry On. With a clear vision, therefore, of the necessity of a new party untram. meled by such influences, he called the Progressive party into being. He did not reach the goal of his first effort, but we who rallled to his standard in 1924 do hereby proclalm that we shall continue where he pointed the way and summon new leaders to take up that standard where he laid it down; that in 1926, in 1928, and & ure years we shail carry on unswervingly until that goal is reached. “The Progressive party of the Na- tion, therefore, in so far as it is rep- resented in this assemblage gathered together to do honor to the memory of La Follette, does pledge itselt to complete the building of a new na- tional party in city, State and Natlon, to continue the work of the new eman- cipation to which Robert M. La Fol- lette had dedicated and devoted his life’s effort: and we call upon all our colleagues in the late campalign to or- ganize in every city, village and ham- let for giving battle at the polls, for the vantage of public place and power wherever and whenever a public serv- ant is to be named or a public policy to be given effect; this and nothing less than this would adequately do justice and honor to the spirit and to the memory of the departed leader, the late Senator Robert M. La Follette.” Doctors who study the health-and- hollday question say that June is the best holiday month _SPECIAL NOTICES. 'D—A RETURN LOAD OF Fi Ture from New ork: PhiTadaiohia or BaM- more.

By the Associated Press. NASHUA, H., August 1.—The story of how two aged sisters were battered to death with stovewood sticks in order that their slayers, one a boy of 15, might share thelr little estate, was told vesterday by Louls Labombarde of Merrimack. In the cottage in Hudson where the bodies of Helen and Georgianna Gillls were found a week ago, Labombarde, who had been under questioning since Thursday, broke down and admitted that he and his young brother-in-law, Charles Lefebvre, chore boy for the Gillis sisters, were responsible for the crime. Labombarde was brought to Nashua immediately and locked up on the formal charge of murder. Young Lefebvre also was arrested and brought here. According to the story told by La- bombarde, Charles Lefebvre told him that the Gillis sisters were fond of him and had promised to will him their home and their money when they died. Lefebvre suggested that he and Labombarde kill the aged women and divide the money, the confession continued, and Labom- barde agreed. On Wednesday after- noon they went to the Gillis home to mow the lawn. Beat Women to Death. “Charlie went to the back of the house where there was a wood pile and took an arm full of sticks,” La- bombarde said. “Egch of us took one of the sticks. T went into the pantry where Helen Gillis was and raised my arm with the stick in my hand. I did not mean to hit her, but 1 did. It was not a heavy blow, but she crum- pled up in the corner. I went back to the kitchen and saw Charlle beating Georgianna Gillis who had been stoop- ing down to put on her rubbers. He struck her over the head several times. She staggered into the other room and fell on a couch. Charlle went into the living room then. There was blood streaming from Georgianna's head and he took a nightgown that was there and tried to stop the flow.” Evidence Destroyed. Labombarde said the two returned t0 the kitchen and Lefebvre took a pocketbook from the pantry. They left the house by different routes and met at a place locally known as Camels Hump, balf a mile away. Lefebvre had tied nightgown about his stick and hidden the two under his clothing. At the Camels Hump this evidence was destroyed. Despite Labombarde’s confession his parents maintained that he was at his home in Merrimack, N. H., on the day of the crime. Young Lefebvre has refused to make any statement since his arrest. He stoutly maintains that he was not near the Gillis home at any time on the day of the crime.

SWAMPSCOTT, Mass., August 1.— According to Representative Martin B. Madden of Illinots, chairman of the House appropriations committee, who conterred with President Coollidge at White Court today, there Is little chance of a public buildings bill ex- clusivey for the District of Columbia at the next session of Congress, as has been urged for two years by the President, unless it is included in a general public buildings bill. Representative Madden admits that he 1s opposed to a bill that would pro- vide bulldings for Washington only, and he sald there are many other members of Congress who are of the same opinion. He contends that even the President's prestige and urging will not change their views. The lat- ter, according to Mr. Madden, have no objection to the District of Columbia | getting its share of buildings, it the appropriation is provided in a gen- eral bill. Expects Passage of Bill. Mr. Madden expects to see a build- ings bill passed at the next session. In his opinfon it should provide for an expenditure of more than $25,000,000 annually, and the selection of the locations of the buildings to be erect- ed and the expenditure of the money should be left exclusively in the hands of the Becretary of the Treasury. In fact, Mr. Madden is in reality op- posed to any appropriation for public butldings. He thinks that @ bond is- sue ought to be floated for such pur- poses and each building made to pay the interest rate on the bonds and provide for thelr retierment. In other words, that the money now pald by the Government in rent should be ap- plied to paying the interest rate on the bonds floated to take care of re- spective public bufldings. U. S.
