Witt, 65, farmer and dairyman, and Mrs. Har- riet Ann Johnson, 45, an overall factory employe here, were shot to death yester- day by Mrs. Johnson's estranged hus- band, Delbert Johnson, 50. A few min- utes later he ended his own life with a shotgun. The double slaying occurred when Johnson met Witt, a neighbor, driving Mrs. Johnson into town in Witt's buggy. After shooting the two Johnson took the pistol and beat Witt over the head until the weapon was broken. Running about 150 yards to the home of Ben Walters, Johnson found Walters' shot- gun and killed himself. “PUSSYFOOT” JOHNSON RENEWS LIQUOR FIGHT By the Assoclated Press.

Not fully recovered from a oollapse suffered at Lewiston, Idaho, Thursday, the 71-year-old dry leader insisted on filling two lecture engagements.

By the Associated Press. DETROIT, May 2.—How to meet a steadily growing demand for quicker acceleration, greater speed and ease of handling, and at the same time main- tain the safety factor, has been one of the major problems of motor car engineers. Few, if any, cars now built have a maximum speed of less than 80 miles an hour. The development of this speed capacity has not been so much the outcome of competitive construc- tion as of demand from the retail trade. Most automotive engineers be- Meve there is little likelihood, however, that there will be any further increase in the maximum speed possibilities of the average stock car. Not so long ago—when motor cars were being sold in muitiple million lots—there was no little talk of special high-speed rogdways connecting certain populous centers. Some of these, in fact, had been constructed and con- tributed to the development of speedier lwckm cars, ere was a general assumption then that these original high-speed arteries would be developed on a mammoth scale for vehicles that would speeu over them at a rate comparable to the pres- ent racing range. Just as the produc- ion of motor cars has been sharply cut down by the economic situation, however, so, too, have plans for special high-speed roadways. Engineers, whose function it is to develop the speed capacity of the| present-day motor, seem generally agreed that all the speed that can be handled with safety has been put into current models. Probably the test RESORTS. These SE:-. Months at HOTEL DENNI J. according “How many miles will it make on & gallon?” and “How fast will it go?” seem to be the deciding factors clinching a sale after the price has been agreed upon. * Thus, along with the speed-with- safety problem, the engineers also have had to them from bilities of Various factors have been considered and worked out in the search for .

I sell five times as many Chesterfields as I did a while back.”” Yes, there’s something to say about Chest- erfields and it takes just six words to say it—"They’re mild and yet they satisfy.”
