TRUNK DISCOVERED IN NEW
YORK BY REPORTERS YIELDS
MUCH EVIDENCE
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3. (JP)—A
mother of pearl pendant, similar to
souvenirs sold at Palestine, was found
in Ormiston’s trunk but was overlook-1
ed in New York in the rush to ship !
it here. Attorney Keyes declared “we !
expect to prove Aimee McPherson
bought the pendant during her trip
to the Holy Land last January.” The j
[Pendant is a seven pointed star with
I the word Bethelem engraved on it.
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3. (Jp)—Au
thorities declared the stitches in the j
border of a small wash cloth and ex-,
pensive towel will definitely link
! Aimee McPherson with Ormiston’s
i
Carmel sojourn. The wash cloth is
the one left at Carmel by Ormiston
and a woman. The towel found in
Ormiston’s trunk which was seized
♦
in NeV York and investigators as
serted the crocheted borders are
identical. Five pair of shoes were al
so found in the trunk of the same
size Aimee wears. Miss Erma Ray- j
bold, of a Los Angeles department |
store, said she sold a red cape, the
same one "which was found in the
trunk, to Aimee early in the year.
MODIFICATION OF
ii-ii
WETS WIN IN NEW YORK, MON
TANA, ILLINOIS; LOSE
MISSOURI
NEW YORK. Nov. 3. (JP)—Incom
plete returns from New York State
•; indicate that the vote for the modifi
1 j cation of the Volstead Act will carry
,by two to one. In 146 districts out of |
4,711 outside of New York City shows
a majority for modification of 40,485.
In New York City the prohibition re
ferendum seems to be going over with
a bang. In New York City the vote
for modification is more than eight
to one. In the upper counties where
the dry sentiment was supposed to
be strongest has proved to be weak.
It is expected that the modification
will carry in New York State as a
; whole by three to one.
In Colorado where the voters were
voting on the repeal of the state pro
hibition law in Missouri also seems
to be lost.
The wets have been successful in
Montana where the prohibition repeal
is winning by two to one. The wet
referendum in Illinois is leading by
two to one.
