DECEMBER 9 1928—PART 1 FINGERPRINTS FOUND AFTER 2 ARE SLAIN ! state-Wide Search Begun for Bur- | glars Who Shot Doctor and Wife, y the Associated Press. EATON, Ohio, December 8—Two burglars who early today - shot, and ! nent :physician, and his wife,. 58, when surprised while ransacking the Silver home here, were objects’ of a State- | wide search tonight. Mrs. Silver was killed instantly by a bullet which pierced her heart when she 8iscovered the burglars. Dr. Silver, who had gone to his wife’s assistance when he heard a commotion, was shot and fatally wounded by the second of three bullets fired by the intruders. He died five hours later in a Dayton hospital following an operation for the removal of the bullet from his abdomen. Mrs. Silver had been awakened by a noise, which she believed was made by an adopted daughter, Hannah Mary, 13, and she was on her way to her room when accosted by the burglars. Awakened by the shooting, Hannah Mary summoned neighbors, who sent the wounded physician to the Dayton hospital and called village officials. The burglars are believed to have escaped in a waiting automobile. Capt. Harvey Siferd, Bertillon expert of the Dayton Police Department, took numerous finger prints which he found in the room where the slaying occurred, in efforts to get®some clues as to the identity of the gunmen.

LUGANO, Switzerland, December 8. —It was announced tonight that the Council of the Leagpe of Nations un- doubtegdly will answer the note of the United' States to the League on the opium question. Washington declined an invitation to nominate candidate for the central board to be instituted under the Geneva opium convention. While expressing willingness to collab- orate in the fight against opium, the United States. voiced -dissatisfaction with the Geneva convention. The present intention of the League is to write to Washington that the Geneva conference was a meeting of sovereign states, which accomplished the best possible: and that genuine ef- forts must be made to give the conven- tion a chance. Senator Dandurand of Canada, Am- bassador Adatchi of Japan and M. H. Procope, minister of foreign affairs of Finland, will meet tomorrow to select |a preliminary list of names, probably 18, for the central board under the | | oplum _convention. The council later will select the final 8 who will consti- tute the board. Whether an American expert will be named to the board re- mains an open question. A movement is under way to appoint an American on the committee of jur- ists which is to revise the statutes of the World Court of Justice, in view of the reported plan of the United States | to reopen negotiations for membership. Among the names mentioned are those of Elihu Root, John W. Davis and George W. Wickersham. Unconfirmed reports were in circula- tion tonight that if Premier Mussolini does not come to Lugano some member of the French delegation may go to Northern Italy to consult with him. It is also rumored that Foreign Minister Gustav Stresemann of Germany may visit Mussolini near Milan. French and Italians are hoping for a meeting between Mussolini and Aristide Briand, - although neither side wishes to assume the initiative. PARK TO BE SUPPLIED BY INDIAN STYLE DAMS A syswm built on thp plan of pre- historic Indian dams will furnish the supply of drinking water in Mesa Verde National Park, the erstwhile haunts of ancient cliff dwellers in Southwestern Colorado next Summer, while large | steel and concrete tanxs, with a com- bined capacity of 500,000 gallons, will furnish water for other purposes. making this announcement yesterd: .the Interior Department said that this nrrangement will ‘accommodate :'a 000 le wha.may visit the park, but as. {- ists . in _ increasing numbers point mur muwm towar@ Mesa Verde, a ‘hment. unit—to conserve- the nln water—will be necessary. The National Park Service is utiliz- ing two sheet iron cawch pans, each | 1co\er|ng an_gcre, to insure an adequate | water supply; and - reinforced concrete storage tank of 250,000-gallon capacity the water. Another smaller concrete Hnnk with a capacity of 75,000 gallons, |is being installed underground. and water will be pumped to it from the spring at the head of Spruce Tree Can- yon, which is fed from the reservoir at the head of Spruce Tree Camp after fi tering through 250 feet or sandstone.
