(Milsie) Henry, Washington gambler, faced the future with renewed hope today following a surprise visit to his death-house cell by Gov. Floyd B Olsen of Minnesota. Harris’ acquaintance with Gov. Olson dates back to 1918. Olson, then State’s attorney for Hennepin County, Minn., prosecuted Harris for participation in & bank robbery. Harris was convicted and Later, however, Olson learned conviction was false, and he succeeded in having the sentence suspended Harris was released after having served about three years. “If there’s anything I can ever do for vou,” Olson told Harris, “let me know.” S Olson came to Washington recently to confer with various Government officials. When Harris learned he was here, he appealed to him for aid.

It writes: “Every Ayran hero should marry only a blond Aryan woman with blue, wide- cpen eyes, a long oval face, a pink and white skin, a narrow nose, a small mouth and, under all circumstances, virginal. . “‘A blond, blue-eyed man must marry no brunette, no Mediterranean typs woman with short legs, black hair, hooked nose, full lips, a large mouth and an inclination to plumpness. “A blond, blue-eyed Aryan hero must marry no Negroid type of woman with the well known Negroid head and thin- nish body. . “The Aryan hero must marry only his equal Aryan woman, but not one who goes out too much or likes theaters, en- tertainment or sport, or who cares to be seen outside her house, or who would grow hysterical over sitting down too long over her profession.” (Copyright. 1933.)

MERIDIAN, Miss, August 11.—Offi- cers of two States are searching for an ex«convict from Ohio umdey the belief he fled southward with John H. Henkel, 116, who was quoted by authorities here as confessing he killed Oliver S. Baily, & member of the Cincinnati Society. Investigation indicated the former prisoner arrived in Meridian with the youth and fled to Tennessee after Henkel was seized at a gasoline filling station. A statement by Henkel's mother that he left Cincinnati with a friend known to her as “Tommy” led officials to be- lieve the companion was the ex-convict and.that he may have knowledge of the slaying. District Attorney Aubert Dunn said the former prisoner’s record was weil known by Ohio police and he gave Tennessee authorities a minute descrip- tion of him, but refused to reveal the man's name. Henkel was seized in Baily's car and Wwas said to have confessed killing the latter last Saturday night. “I doubt the motive advanced by Henkel for the struggle which he said resulted in Baily’s death,” Dunn con- tinued. “There is more to th than has been told.” 8 story Other officers concurred in this view.
