CASE OF CARNES Police Strive to Find Missing Treasarer Atlanta, Ga., Bept. 14 UP—Fresh but _mystifying tralls were disclos- «d today in the nation-wide search for Clinton 8. Carnes, missing treas- urer of the Southern Baptist home mission board, as a grand jury sought information from & man identified only as a “prominent At- lanta cian.” The latest “leads” im the hunt for the man whose disappearance i€d to the discovery of a $1,000,000 shortage in his church accounts, were furnished yesterday in Los Angeles by Miss Lois Griffin, film protege of Carnes. She told author- ities that it ‘would be advisable to question an Atlanta physician whose tull name she did not know. Solicitor General John A. Boykins issued the subpoena hers on the strength of her statement. Declin- ing to identify the man further. Los Angeles dispatches had quoted Miss Griftin as saying the physician had iccompanied her and Mrs. Louise Pope, formerly of Atlanta, to Bos- :on and New York early in 1927, Under Contract At that time Miss Griffin was un- der contract to Carnes, whereby she was to give him part of her earn- ings after she Mad “arrived” in the movies in return for advance sums, which over a period of 22 months, imounted to more than $5,000 by her own admission. Mrs, Pope,|in Los Angeles as business manager for Miss Sonia tiordlie, another hopeful film act- tess, made no definite assertions about the physician named by Miss Griftin. Carnes vanished here on August 15 after telling his chauf- teur he had been called to Raleigh, N. C., on business. Although re- ports have had him in several cities since, no definite trace of him has been found. Miss Griffin yesterday told Los Angeles authorities that she had been asked by Carnes to meet him in Chicago on Aug. 15, but that she had refused because she feared he would want her to go around the world with him, a prospective trip he had mentioned to her repeatedly. League to Investigate Abuse of Strong Drink Geneva, Switserland, Sept. 14 P —The foes of alcoholism won & partial victory today by getting through the economic committee of for an investigation concerning the abuse of strong drink. The wets were not entirely vanquished be- cause they succeeding in having wines, beer and cider eliminated from the proposed inquiry. The resolution provided that the health committee of the league should institute the inquiry and eol- lect statistics and similar informa- tion concerning abusive use of spir- its and deleterious effects of alco- hol of a poor quality. The Irish delegate jocularly re- minded the economic committee that “bad alcohol cannot ‘possibly refer to Irish whiskey.” Senator Pams of France said that the wine growing interests of his country would not be affected be- cause they were sacred. AGREEMENT MAY Rhineland Evacuation for reaching an agreement on Ger- many's demand for evacuation the allied powers, it was understood authoritatively today. The representatives of England, France, Belgium, Italy and Japan will meet with Hermann Mueller, German chancellor, again on Sun- day. At that time, it is expected concrete proposals will be formulat- ed as a strating point for further negotiations. The United States will be asked to take a prominent part in the set- tlement, the United Press learned on high authority. The Proposal The tentative proposal includes creation of the following machin- ery to handle the problem of event- ual evacuation: 1—A commision of investigation and conciliation to handle questions connected with evacuation proper, and possibly to serve as a substitute for allied control of the Rhineland. HIDNAPPING QUL GOES ON TODAY (Chicago Police Continue Griling Two Suspects Chicago, . Sept. 14 (UP)—Two men were held by police today for questioning in connection with the kidnaping of 10-year-old ‘Willlam Ranier!, held under threat of death for a ransom of $60,000. The men were Balvatore Mastroi- anni, owner of a poolroom, and Reando Skid, a sewer digger who had been employed by A. Frank Ranierl who had consulted with them secretly. Ranierl previously had told police he was confident his son would be returned today, but refused to re- veal the source of his hopes. He was believed to have been in col rhunication with the kidnapers ye: terday and to have arranged for the boy's return. 1t was investigation of the father's secret journey to supposed agents of the extortionists that led to the two arrests. Mafia terrorists, police pointed out have extorted money from wealthy Italians for years through Black Hand methods. Po- lice hoped to obtain information from Mastroianni and S8kid which might lead to arrest of the ring leaders of Chicago's Mafa. Children of the §t. Genevieve par- ochial ‘school where Willlam Raneri was a student, offered special praye ors for the return of their school- mate. Fear apread through the district surrounding the school. Parents accompanled their children and came to get them when classes were over, The action of the father in att tempting to negotiate with the kid-| napers through his own people was| looked on by police as evidence of | his fear that police activity and pub- licity would bring upon him and his con the vengeance included in the 2—A debt and reparations com- mission to handle the financial ob- ligations of Germany, which she must fultill under the Versaills treaty as a condition for evacuation. An effort will be made to have American delegates on both com- missions, especially on the financial one, which may be charged also with the problem of inter-allied debts. That would mean the link- ing of German payments with the payments of British and French war debts to the United States. Wilson Signed One reason advanced for the in- clusion of the United States was the signature of Woodrow Wilson to an interpretation by Britain, France and the United States of article 431 of the Versailles treaty, providing for early Rhineland evacuation when Germany had guaranteed ful- fillment of her obligations. Another was the necessity of the United States absorbing a large part of German railway and other bonds issued for reparations payments. CIVIL SUIT WITHDRAWN The action of John Ball against Morris Koppell, heard yesterday in city county befors Judge Henry P. Roche was finally withdrawn as both parties agreed to reach a set- tlement out of court. Attorney J. F. Lacey represented the plaintifl and M. A. Sexton was counsel for the defendant. Judge Henry P. Roche reserved decision today in the action of Frank Cox and Willlam G. Dunn against Herman Busch for alleged fallure to pay the premium on an automobile insurance policy, which the plaintiffs claim the defendant contracted for. In his answer, Busch claimed that he never at any time requested the plaintiffs to in- sure his automobile. M. A. Sexton represented the plaintiffs and L. J. Golon the dgfendant.
