PHONE NUWBER I LU T0 J0ENTITY This Solves-l!ystery of Amnesia Victim in New Jersey New Brunswick, N. J, Feb. 28 (UP)—Minus his automobile, wallet, and watch, and still suffering from amnesia, Rea Henry Dwyer, phar- macist, was today sent back to his lome at Huntington, W. Va., by the physician who learned the name and address of the amnesia victim by piecing together a number, a first wame and the address on a suit of clothes worn by the stranger. Dwyer walked Into the office of William Edgar Sherman, his nind a total blank. He repeated the umber 24,1380 over and over. Dr. Sherman asked if he could re- uember anything else. “I can remember :4,1380 and the name othing more,” he said. The phyeician found that the <tranger's sult had been bought irom a Huntington W. Va., clothier. With this information, the phy stan called the Huntington telephone xchange and asked {f they had any lial telephones there. They had. So he c d the number *“24,1380." “Is anyone there by the name " the physician asked. sald the person that's t name the number Holly, but of at of the Mrs. Dwyer.” Further conver-ation revealed that Dwyer had driven to New York las veek in a new scdan. He had on \is person a watch, a chain, a Ma- sonic emblem, and a wallet, “Is your name Dwyer?" asked Dr. Sherman. Yes, that's me, in his offic At St. Peter's hospital here, where he was taken by Dr. Sherman Dwyer gradually recovered more of his memory, and today the physi- cian ordered that he be placed with an escort and taken back to Hunt- ington. “I think was a vietim play,” Dr. Sherman told the Press, “He was apparently on the Lin- coln highway just outside of New Brunswick when his automobile and his personal possessions were taken from him. HOUSE IS GLOSING TRANQUIL SESSION But Semate Has Experienced Stormy Nine Months Washington, Feb. 28 (P—Having g up a near short session record » specd in enacting legislation, the ninth congress entered its final today with Its right wing er and its left calmly coasting in toward the nine months' Friday ournment. One guess was as good as another 5 to the outlook in the senate—the right wing—which has become em- hed in a tangled skein of parlia- mentary maneuvers. In the house it was quite a different story. It had only the chaff to clean up after har- vesting a bumper bill crop. The senate also had a great amount of accomplishment behind it, out Messrs. Filibuster and Cloture, long and short debate advocates who have been locking horns, were ex- pected to enact the final scenes of the four and a half day performance. Today had been set aside in that body for votes on petions to clamp the one hour debate restriction on the $125,000,000 public buildings bill and the administration prohibition and customs reorganization measure, but there were predictions that these would meet the same fate as thos on Saturday when attempts failed to limit discussion on the Boulder Canyon dam and emergency offi- cers' retirement bills. These forecasts were the fact that supporters id the strange of Unit foul d based on of the alien property return and McNary- | Haugen farm relief measures and sponsors of resolutions proposing fresh or extension of old investiga- tions, all proposed to be heard in the clamor for precedence. While the Swing-Johnson pro- posal to dam the Colorado river at Boulder Canyon remained the finished business today. The pro- gram hinged primarily upon the success of attempts to apply cloture to the buildings and prohibition measures.

Final Action Being Taken In Daugherty Trial Today New York, Feb. 28 (#—The gov- ernment’s summation was continued when the Daugherty-Miller trial re- sumed today. United States Attorney Emord R. Buckner took up his attack on the validity of the claims of the Soclete Suisse Pour Valeurs de Metaux for the 00,000 proceeds of the sale of seized shares of the American Metal compan: Harry M. Daugherty, former at- torney g ral, and Thomas W. Mil- ler, former alien property custodian, e charged with conspiracy to de- traud the United States of their best services in the allowance of the claim. The government alleges they shared in a $441,000 paid to influence passage of the claims. Opening of court was delayed by the tardiness of a juror, who said he was delayed by the death of a friend.
