All Love Notes of Dead W oman, For Secretary, 21, Dtsclosed By the Assoclated Press. LO8 ANOEH. September 14.— der diary notes that disclosed the emotional turmol of Mrs. Anna Powell Crookshank, 78 and wealthy, when the youth she befriended was away, were read today by police homicide squads- men investigating her death. ‘While the county chemist conducted an examination to determine whether Mrs. Crookshank died of natural causes, as originally believed, her 21- year-old secretary, Thaddeus Pickens, was held as a material witness. In a black-kid notebook in Mrs. Crookshank’s effects, Detective Lieut. Miles Ledbetter said were inscribed her thoughts and hopes that “Thad” would never be gullty of forgetfulness toward her. Army posts in Panama, along the|” West Coast, and in Hawaii, and their speeches and subsequent actions stamp them as strong national de- fense advocates. Program to Be Continued. So it would seem assured that Con= gress, under their leadership and ad- Y | with the first increment of about X | $6,500,000 last year on a $30,000,000 vice, will continue its program for the Army. Conspicuous on this pro- gram is seacoast defense projects, just started under a five-year program, project. The mechanization and mo= @ | torization three-year programs are 8 | working along, and there is no pros- K |pect of a change in the enlisted strength—now placed at 165,000 men. b | Appropriations must be made to take i | care of the first 50 officers to be given ¥ | permanent places from the Reserve W | officers’ list. Congress has authorized | 1,000 of these Reservists be taken in i | temporarily for one year and that 50 K |of these be selected for permanent commissions. The first 50 are eligible S Mjon Juy 1. What will be done about the Air program is considered a serious The Rogers bill provides program looking toward realization of that number, or whether it will hold g |down to the 2,320 recommended by . In Our Moal Markets | =5 the Drum Board of the Army. The trouble, observers say, is that Con- the Rogers bill without careful consideration of the tremen- B | dous expense involved—that no con- sideration was given to the cost of the : planes, cost of providing hangars or K | the training and maintenance of an adequate force of aviation men. Regarding the vacant chairmanship on the House Military Affairs Com- mittee, it seems assured that Repre- sentative’ Hill of Alabama will take the job. He hasa big military estab= lishment in his home State, and those who have followed military legisla- tion say that he has been consistently for adequate national defense and supported all efforts in that direction. 141 in Alabama Assembly. Alabama’s Legislature is composed of B[ 141 members, 35 in the Senate and 3 | 106 in the House of Representatives. ‘Written WNIC Pickens was visiting Chicago on sn excursion with Mrs. Crookshank’s personal chauffeur, one passage, the detective sald, read: “Precious, do not let me have a moment's suspicion of infidelity. Spare me! Lost confidence can never be regained. You will not take my sun- shine away from me—you could not be that cruel to me. If I just knew where you were! I wonder if you are as lonesome as I am. Can I wait another week? I'll never let you go 50 far away again * * * hear me?” At Pickens’ apartment, where he painted, modeled in clay and wrote poetry while he received $140 a month from Mrs. Crookshank, Detective Led- better said he found two affectionate verses attributed to the youth's 7 Introductory lines of one were: pen. | Pickens.

Mrs. Crookshank died September 7, four days after she became ill at & mountain cabin while on a trip with telephone calls and a request from Crookshank, the police investigation was opened. Crookshank was denied & divorce several months ago. More than $50,000 bonus money was paid recently to American ex-service men in Galway, Irish Free State.
