NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 19 ANONYMOUS LETTER CLUE TO MURDERER All Other Traces of Slayer of Madison, N. Child Seem to be Lost Morristown, N. J., Oct. 11.—The mystery of who murdered 11 year old Janet Lawrence in a clump of woods on the outskirts of Morristown last Thursday deepened today as detectives abandoned the second set of clues on which they had worked. Frank Felice, arrested yesterday after neighbors had told of seeing a “wild man” mnear the scene of the murder was said to have convinced the authorities he had no connection with the crime. A Teport that an escaped criminal lunatic had been arrested at Stamford, Conn. and had admitted be- ing in Morristown on the day of the murder was denied by the Stamford police who said they knew of no such man. Francis Kluxen, the 14 year old boy who was originally held in connection with the slaying, still is under $5,000 bond but County Prosecutor Mills said he would not bring Janet’s murder before the grand jury which convenes today, as he did not have sufficient facts to warrant any action. Sheriff Bryam openly declared the boy had proven his innocence and should be released. ’ The only known clue is an anony- mous letter from Philadelphia signed “ripper” in which the writer boasts tectives have asked Philadelphia police to try to find the writer but are in- clined to think the letter was written by a crank. WOULD QUARANTINE NEW ENGLAND FARMS Measure Considered Today Provides For Stamping Out of . European Corn Borer. Washington, Oct. 11.—Proposals that the entire northeastern portion of the country stretching from the western Inidiana border to the At- lantic coast and from the Ohio and Potomac rivers to the Canadiaf line be placed under quarantine to theck ravages ‘of the European corn borer, a new insect pest, were up for hear- ing today before the federal horti- cultural board. The hearing brought to Washing- ton representatives of ‘the agricul- tural departments of more than a dozen states both within and without the proposed quarantine area and agents of boards of trade, chambers of commerce agricultural organiza- tions and of grain dealers’ associa- tions from the middle west, south and northeast. The proposal gave all the appearance of being one of the most hard fought issues which have come before the horticultural hoard, states within the proposed area seeking to prevent the quaraistine and those without but adjacent to it, i imposition of redtrictive seekin, measurl§ Portidgs of the states of Massa- chusettsY New *‘Hampshire, New York and Pennsylvania already are under quarantifie and the extension if or- dered, would prevent shipments without permit from the quarantine area of corn, broom-corn, celery, green beans in the pod, and some other vegetables. GREEKS IN BATTLE Turks Offering Stern ~Resistance to Advance of Enemy—Greek Forces Win in Sonthern District. Athens, Oct. 11.—Greek and Turk- ish Nationalists forces have been en- gaged in stern battle along the new front in Asia Minor, extending from Aflun Karahissar northward to a point almost directly east of Brusa. On the southern end of this liné the Greeks, says an official staternent is- sued here, have won a complete vic- tory, driving the Natidnalists from the field and inflicting heavy losses upon them. Further north the fighting has apparently consisted of raids in force, but it is evident the hostile armies are in contact with each other.
