LETCHER MAY BE CABINET HEMBER Ambassador to Taly Great Aid to Hoover Aboard U. 8. 8. Utah, en route to Hampton Roads, Jan. 3 (®—The assistance rendered by Henry P. | Fletcher to Herbert Hoover on his | Latin-American good-will tour probably will result in the present umbassador to Italy becoming one of the chief advisers to the new president in foreign affairs, particu- larly in Central and South Ameri- can relations. ‘While there has been some talk of Mr. Fletcher for a cabinet pos- tion, just what place he will have In the new administration is for the president-elect to decide and he is keeping his own counsel, However, it is known that he regards the am- bassador as one of the ablest of the personnel of the diplomatic corps and is highly pleased with his work ns & member of the good-will mis- sion, One of the major foreign policies of Hoover's administration will be the fostering of better relations with other American republics, and it is expected that Mr. Fletcher's advice and counsel will be called for frequently, as he has a very wide circle of friends ameng the governments of the Latin-American republics. Mr. Hoover has known Mr. Fletcher for many years and kept his eye on his work both in the diplomatic service in the Americas and in Europe, where he was‘'am- bassador to Belgium as well as Italy, having been sent overseas after a term as undersecretary of state, Besides representing the state de- partment in Chile as minister and ambassador and in Mexico during a delicate period of the World War, Mr. Fletcher has been a delegate to practically all Pan-American con- ferences held in recent years. His ~wide knowledge of people and con- ditions in Latin-America was one of the major factors in the decision of President-Elect Hoover personally to request Sccretary Kellogg to let him have the services of the ambassador for the goodwill tour. Hailed as Friend Mr. Fletcher had been called to ‘Washington from Rome for the Pan- American confercnce on arbitration and conciliation and consequently | ‘was available for the assignment with Mr. Hoover. L\(‘ry'»\hcre during the tour he was hailed as & friend by officials of the various governments and the fact that the president-elect brought him along apparently was accepted as further evidence of his sincere desire sympathetically to study conditions in Latin-America and to understand the people and their problems. Both in Chile and In the larger cities of other courtries visited, the newspapers devoted special articles to Ambassador Fletcher and in San- tiago the papers had editorials wel- coming him, FIVE HELD FOR STEALING CHILD Four Men and One Woman All of Same Family Orrville, 0., Jan. 3 M—For men and one woman, all members of the same family, are in the county jail at Wooster awaiting grand jury con- sideration on charges of child steal- ing in connection with the disap- pearance & week ago of Melvin Horst, 4, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray- mond Horst of Orrville. The five suspects pleaded not SEEK MEN LOST IN guilty late last night when arraign- ed before Mayor A. U, Weygandt of Orrville, one of the leaders in the search for the boy. They were un- |able to post bonds of $10,000 each. Those held are Elias (Nul) Ar- nold, 55, of Orrville; William Ar- nold, 30, electrical supply dealer of Akron, his son; Arthur Arnold, Orr- ville, another;' Mrs. Dorothy Mc- Henry, 27, of Orrville, daughter of the elder Arnold, and her husband, Bascom McHenry. County Prosecutor Walter Mougley said the warrants charge all five had a part in enticing the amall boy from his home late lagt Thursday, but added the arrests had thrown no further light on whether Melvin is dead or alive, The four men had previously been arrested by Roy Horst, city marshal, and uncle of Melvin, It is the sup- position of Mougey that hatred of Roy Horst caused his enemies to | kidnap Melvin thinking he was the marshal's son. COLORADO STORMS Three Missing in Blizzard on Long's Peak Estes Park, Colo, Jan. 3 (— Three men who are believed lose in a blizzard on Long's Peak, and two reported would-be rescuers were sought by a relief party which | formed at Long's Peak Inn today to scour the region. The searching party, headed by Forest Ranger John Preston, gath- ered following reports from the inn caretaker that an automobile left there Sunday by three men had not been called for. The men were reported to have started the long climb to the nearly inaccessible mountain peak, which lifts its head 14,271 feet above sen level, and which is a favorite ana in winter exceedingly dangerous challenge to mountain climbers. In Shelter Reports received here last night were that two youths, who preced- ed the searchers in starting to the relief of the three mountain climb- ers, had reached a remote shelter house on the mountain side. A raging blizzard swept the re- glon last night and the climbers| would have suffered terribly if they | were without fire and shelter, The license number on the auto- mobile left at the inn was issued to a ranger named Mack of Fort Col- lins, who recently told friends he planned a trip into the mountains. The caretaker said the men haa provisions enough to last them three days. Long's Peak and adjacent moun- tain rangers were familiar haunts and figured largely in the writings of the late Enos Mills, who found- PLAINVILE ScHooL ed and lived at the inn bearing the mountain’s name. en your Children Cry | for It Baby has little upsets at times.

The winning architect's drawing. which is reproduced above, was that | of William T. Towner of the School Plan Service Bureau, Middletown. By its plan, a second building which will be the duplicate of the present section is to be constructed in the rear and the two units are to be connected by a connecting link which will face what is now known | as “the passway"” but which will be improved by the town into a regu- lar street. In the addition will be 12 rooms and a large basement play | room. A particularly notfiwnrthy] feature of the Towner plan is a| large kindergarten department — the first in the eastern part of the | town—located directly behind the central door in the ahove cut. The building will be financed by a bond issue. The cut shows both the existing and proposed units as they will look | from the *passway.” The section to the left of the door is already built. ! The central link and portion to the right of the entrance comprise the addition. Minor changes will be made ir the ahove design, Superin- tendent of Schools Leon C.
