REED WELCOMES DISTURBER IN ARMY Washington, Sept. 8. (P—Secre- tary Wilbur today replied indirectly to one charge made by Colonel Wil- liam Mitchell in his attack on the army and navy services, The secretary sald the Shenandoah had not been sent on her western trip in an effort to make up for fail- ure of the Polar flight and the Hawalian flight, A western voyage had been planned months ago, he said, before the Hawailan flight was arranged and about the same time that the Arctic expedition ws agreed upon. Colonel Mitchell's latest criticism of the administration's air service policy was referred today to the in- spector gencral of the army for in- vestigation and report. The action of the war department will not be determined until this re- port has been received. Should srounds be found for disciplinary Tction, acting Secretary Davis then Wil decide whether court martial proceedings shall be initiated. Major General Helmick, the in- .pector general, presumably will cull pon Colonel Mitchell for the facts.

N. J., Sept. 8 (®— Harrison W. Noel, 20-year-old farm- er collego student and escaped in- mate of an insane asylum, who kid- napped and killed six-year-old Mary Daly because of a craving for $4,- 000 in ransom money, seems likely to be ordered confined for life as were the slayers of Bobby Franks in Chicago. Noel pleaded guilty yesterday to the kidnapping charge. He denied he shot and killed the girl or Ray- mond Pierce, negro taxicab driver, to get an automobile for the abduc- tion, He awaits arraignment on charges of murdering the girl and wounding John Sandin, chauffeur, who gave chase after the kidnapping. Sunday he confessed with boastful- ness and a grin to all of the crimes. Captain James A. Mason, head of Essex county detectives, says Noel is “hopelessly insane.” A committee of alienists is to be sought by John A. Bigelow, prosecutor of Essex county, to examine the youth, If found in- sane, he will be committed to the state hospital at Trenton. If he is found sane, his plea of gullty of the kidnapping charge exposes him to a sentence of life imprisonment, There 18 no lesser sentence for that crime in New Jersey. Chicago, Sept. 8 (M—The verdict in the case of Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard Loeb, co-kidnappers- murderers of Bobble Franks, was blamed by Robert E. Crowe, state's attorney for the kidnapping and Kkilling of Mary Daly, six-year-old victim of Harrison Noel in Mont- clair, N. J. The statement was the first made by the prosecutor on the decision of Judge John R.

Woodmen, Masons and Foresters, Stable 12 Years Ago—Active While econversing with his wife and daughter and with Dr. Henry T. Bray, who had been called to attend him for paine near the heart, Con- stable George A. Stark, 65, dropped dead at his home at 140 Maple street, at 8:50 o'clock this morning. Mr. Stark had been to his office on Main street earlier in the morn-| ing and drove home complaining of | sharp pains. He sat on a davenport awaiting the arrival of the physician who had been summoned, and when Dr. Bray entered, he arose and spoke. While he was on his feet an expression of pain came across his face and he called out: “Catch me, doctor!” As he sagged to the floor, Dr. Bray caught him., He died in the physiclan's arms. Mr. Stark wasc a native of Mon- treal, Canada. He came to New Brit- ain ahout 25 years ago and for a time was connected with the Russell & Erwin Mfg. Co. Early in life he became actively interested in repub- lMcan politics and he was a familiar figure at G. O. P. political gather- ings for many years past. In 1912, Mr. Stark sought election as a constable and he was named on the republican ticket, He has served in that office every year since that time. He was also in the real estate and insurance business and main- talned offices on Main street. Fraternally, Mr. Stark was inter- ested chiefly in the Modern Wood- men of the World, holding the office of clerk of the local branch for the past 15 years. Other fraternal affili- atlons included Masonlc orders and the Foresters. Surviving is Mrs Stark’s wife, Mrs. Harrlet E. Stark, two sons, Drew D. and Edward F. Stark, of Detrolt, Mich., and one daughter, Miss Viv- jan Stark of this city. Funeral arrangements are incom- plete pending the arrival of Mr. Stark's sons, Drew and Edward, who are expected here from Detrolt tonight.
