Solution in Murder Case—Prosecutor Shleld% Mys- terious Mr. Marshall.. Newy York, March 22.—With the police apparently as far as they can get on the train of the murderer of Dorothy, Keenan, whose tragic death a week ago has become the chloro- form’ mystery, public attention today was focussed on the effort to smoke out the identity of “John Marshall,” the wealthy man. of mystery and inti- mate of the slain girl. N Several newspapers, Alfred Gui- mares, the other friend of Miss Keen- an, and, it was reported, Mrs. Anna Keenan, mother of Dorothy, all were asking that “Mr. Marshall” be forced out of the vell of secrecy that the po- lice and district attorney have dropped over his identity. Guimares also showed displeasure at the stories published about his re- lations with Miss Keenan. He denied that he had beaten her as Mrs. Keen- an and her son John, the taxi driver, asserted the dead woman had'told them and showed' displeasure at the unfavorable role in which he has been portrayed. Acting District Attorney Pecora withstood demands that he reveal the man who showered gifts on the dead Upon testimony of Betty Miller (above,) police ordered Ben Bojar- Guez (below) held pending investiga- tion of the death of his swectheart, Elleen Zimmerly, movie bathing girl and artists’ model.

HARDING WILL RETURN T0 WASHINGTON NEXT HONTH Plans to Be Back at Desk Between Seventh and Tenthn of April— To Visit Augusta,” Ga. Coca, Fla, March 22.—Tentative plans for the remainder of Presi- dent Harding's vacation trip as dis- closed otday contemplate a return to Washington between April 7 and 10. The vacation party today cruised on northward with the houseboat Plo- neer making good progress. It was certain, however, that St. Augustine, the end of the cruise, would not be reached before tomorrow evening at the earliest and possibly not before Saturday morning. On arriving at St. Augustine, the president and Mrs. Harding, with most ot the other members of the party, will leave the Ploneer and take quarters at the Hotel Ponce de Leon. The visit to 8t. Augustine where Mr. and Mrs. Harding have been spend- ing several weeks each year for about 18 winters is expected to extend over next week and probably until after Easter. The plans then provide that the party go to Augusta, Ga., for a stay of four or five days after which they will return to Washington probably to arrive on April 7 unless the presi- dent should decide to visit Marion, 0. on his way back. SAYSGOVT, AIDED INSUGAR STANPEDE Charge Made That Public Is Floeced of $500,000,000 ‘Washington, March 22, = Demands for an Investigation of fluctuations in the sugar market, made during the closing days of congress by western senators, were revived today by publi- cation of & Jetter written to President Harding by Basll Manly, director of the People's legislative service, charg- ing that the American people were in a fair way of being robbed of $500,- 000,000 *for the benefit of sugar gamblers and profiteers.” “It {8 suggested,” said Mr., Manly, whose organization was formed by members of the progressive bloc in congress, “that as one of the first witnesses the federal grand jury should hear Claus Spreckles, presi- dent of the Federal Sugar Refining Co.,, who has publicly stated that the sugar gamblers, ‘aided by the depart- ment of commerce,’ have been en- abled to rob the American people of millions of dollars.” Mr. Manly declared the rise in prices had their sole basis "so far as the public is informed,” in a state- ment issued by the department of commerce on February 9, which was interpreted by ‘‘all the newspapers” as predicting a great shortage of sugar during the toming year, and that al- though Secretary Hoover had declar- ed the statement was misinterpreted, the opening sentence was so worded as to send prices leaping upward. “Even after this statement had aroused an orgy of speculative acti- vity on the sugar exchange and its evil effects were known,” the state- ment continued “the department of commerce further ‘bulled’ the market by {ssuing a statement particularly directing attention to the increased consumption of sugar in the United States during the past year.” BUSINESS CONFERENCES. Chambers of Commerce Hold Plenary Meeting at Rome Today. Rome, March 22.—A plenary ses- sion of the international chamber of commerée congress was held here to- day. Technical subjects relating to the facilitation of trade were the leading topics under discussion. Resolutions weére adopted urging that the world governments make their tariffs operative on the date shipments leave the exporting coun- try instead of at the time of their arrival at the country of entry. Fil- ing of tariffs with the secretariat of the league of nations so that the schedules might be generally avail- able was also recommended. DOUBT DISARMAMENT Pan-Ametican Conferees Do Not Think Resolution Will Be Adopted Santiago, Chile, March 22. (By As- soclated Press)-—Expectation that the fitth PaneAmerican conference which opens here Sunday will reach an agreement to reduce armament ex- penditures does not appear to be op- timistically entertained by arriving delegates. The opinion prevalls that after a discussion the question is like- ly to be referred to a committee for further study. Suggestions are heard that this con- ference be called in three years in- stead of five and that meanwhile an armament truce might possibly be agreed to by Argentina, Brazil and Chile as the three most 'interested na- tions. Such a trucé, many ‘of the delegates belleve is the most that can be expected at this time. It is pointed out, however, that.this in itself would be a stepping stone to eventual agree- ment. 116,080 & THE UNIVERSAL CAR @) SOLD AT RETAIL DURING THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY.— READ THAT AGAIN.

The protest will' continue, the resélution says, and will include demonstrations against the treaty of Versailles, the danger of war and against fascistism. The resolution embodies 18 general points with supplementary individual programs for the communists of the various European countries, It pro- vides for an international commis- slon of action consisting of 21 mem- bers. To this commission is assigned the task of uniting all political and economical organizations of lahorers for the “battle against international imperialism"” and the eventual sum- moning of an international congress of workers. The German communists are finstructed to work particularly for the downfall of Premier Poincare of France and the overthrow of the Cuno government in Germany. Clara Zetkin denounced the fascisti movement and advocated boycotting the Italian fascisti. She declared that within a few weeks past eight thou- sand workers had been sent to' jail by the fascisti. The most effective offensive weapon, she argued, would be the prevention of Italian imports entering the United States and Eng- land, “without which Italy cannot exist.” BONDS FIXED AT $10,00 .
