New York, March 6.—Southern women living in régions devoid of modern advantages, are to have ed- ucation brought to them by a move- ment set on foot by twg of the famed langhorne sisters of Richmond, Va., -—Lady Astor and Mrs, Charles Dana Fibson. Lady Astor who was Nancy lang- horne has sent her contribution to her sister Mrs. Gibson who are Irene Langhorne and the original “Gibson girl.” Mrs. Gibson today sent out an appeal to women of the south now living in the north asking for their support of the project. Mrs. Gibson is vice-chairman of the New York city branch of the southern women's educational alliance. The alliance officials say their or- zanization contemplates the awarding of more than 100 scholarships for technical schools, colleges and “prep” schools; arrangements for loans for needy southern girls and also the con- ducting of vocatidnal courses for girls in their teens. SUITOR KILLS GIRL. WILL ATTEMPT TO STOP AUTO THEFTS New System Planned by Commis- sioners Against Tratiic Summons Her From Family Table and Fires Fatal Shot. Frederick, Md., March 6.-—Sum- moned from her seat at the family tablt where a meal was in progress, Miss Arta Jenkins, 17 years old, was shot and killed sterday by Harvey Gartrell, who, according to the police, was a rejected suitor. Gartrell is said to have attempted suicide but inflicted only a scalp wound upon himself, and, recovering, fled in an automobile, The machine was found later abandoned a short distance from Frederick. Searching parties found no trace of Gartrell. Chicago, March 6. — Destroy the market for stolen automobiles and thereby stop the thefts, is the plan in process of formation by the Interstate Motor Theft Commission here. Laws, locks and protective devices have proved themselves inadequate, says W. R. Van Courtland, commis- sioner. The professional motor car thief is unabashed. Motor vehicles of an approximate value of $300,000, the commissioner says, are stolen every day in the United States, de- spité all measures taken to check the thievery. l.arge numbers of persons thrive as a result of the traffic. New Plan. A car is stolen in Chicago. If the numbers are changed one of two things happens, either a duplicate of some other number is made or a fake number one that the manufacturer never placed on a car. ‘When the car is sold and re-registered in any te some number must be given. A dupli- cate number will imnicdiately be caught and the two or more cars car- rying that number will be thorough- ly investigated. A fake number will show up just as quickly and be look- ed into. If the number is not changed there will be a report of the number on the commissions records as that of a stolen car, and when the same number is registered again from the same state or any other it will imme- diately be caught. The lack of any national elearance vstem in the past has been onc of the largest contributing factors in making this lawlessness ecasy and profitable, Mr. Van Courtland states. With the commission’s national clearance system in operation a car stolen in Maine, the numbers changed and the car sold and registered in California, would immediately be caught, he asserts.
