3 AP) A 23-year-old waitress was found slain today and police organized a search for her hus-hand, last seen with the victim in Leadville yesterday. The body of Mrs. Marie Sukle, killed by a bullet fired through her heart, was found in an automobile parked near the business district. I. B.

Bruce, police inspector, reported officers learned that the dead woman's husband. Martin Sukle, had obtained a pistol and cartridges at a pawnshop Saturday. Mrs. Sukle was killed by the same caliber bullet. Bruce also declared the victim's mother, Mrs.

Ida Hirt, had informed officers that Sukle repeatedly had threatened his wife. A note, written in a Slavic language and addressed to Sukle's aunt, was found. The Rev. William Kotrh, who translated the note, said it expressed Sukle's regret that "I must do this thing tonight." The note did not explain "this thing."

She testified Johnson stumbled on a wash tub in his retreat from the bullets and that Johns fired again when the irrigator regained his balance and waa scampering away. "Call the sheriff and the undertaker," Mrs.

Cameron declared Johns told her with Johnson dying on the ground. She asked for the pistol, she said, and the peddler refused, telling her he had "done all 1 aimed to do and I won't cause you any more trouble." Six Shots Fired Mrs. Cameron testified Johns fired six shots. Dr. O.

C. West, assistant county physician, declared only three took effect. One penetrated Johnson's right arm and another glanced along the right side of his head, the physician said. The fatal bullet entered the right side ofJohnson's back, Dr. West told the jury, lodging near his breast bone and inducing hemorrhage and shock.

Only other witness yesterday-was the farm owner, Mr. Freeman, who said that early this year he had ordered the ice cream 'peddler to leave the ranch and not return because he was permitting his car to get in the way. Trial will resume at 9:30 o'clock this morning before Superior Judge Howard C. Speakman. Richard Harless, county attorney, and a deputy, Darrell R.

Parker, said they will call four more witnesses before resting their case, probably by noon. Then E. L.

Johnson was shot fatally in his back as he retreated from Herschel Johns, who pursued with gunfire, was given yesterday as trial of Johns on a first-degree murder charge started Most of yesterday was necessary to obtain the jury which will decide the guilt or innocence of the 30-year-old Phoenix ice cream peddler, charged with slaying the 35-year-old Perry ville irrigator with deliberate and premeditated malice aforethought. Johns shot Johnson August 22 at th R. L. Freeman farm near Perry-ville, where Johnson was employed and where Johns sold ice cream The peddler said he fired in self-defense and fear of his safety when the irrigator advanced upon him with a threatening gesture after ordering him away from the ranch. Johnson beat Johns severely, breaking his nose, several months earlier.

Kindnesses To Wife Johns attributed ill-feeling between himself and Johnson to kindness shown by the peddler to the irrigator's 19-year-old wife, who left him some time before the shooting. Mrs. Tennie Cameron, operator of a sandwich stand at the farm testified Johnson walked to Johns reminded him that he (the irrigator) had ordered Johns awav from the ranch, and that Johns stepped back with the remark: "You almost beat me to death once and you are not going to do it again." Johnson, she said, struck at Johns hut the peddler turned the blow, pulled a small-caliber pistol from his pocket and "before I could even holler, began shooting."

"Reports from Poland indicate pretty clearly the manner in which the entire aerial struggle will be conducted," he said. Population Demoralized "The rapid German advance there clearly indicates that the entire way was prepared by bomber attacks. The Polish airports and their planes were wiped out by bombing before the planes could get off the ground. Infantry groups were harassed and civilian populations were demoralized.

"The rapidity of the advance shows artillery played no large part in preparing for the advance. The progress of the army was too rapid to permit the guns to keep up." lie emphasized that "control of the air means nothing except as it affects ground operations." "Wars still must be won by the occupation of territory through infantry attack," he said. "Yet it is impossible to imagine an army victorious on the ground if the enemy controlled the air." Rickenbacker forecast destruction of Old World cities by fire if mass bombing raids occur. "One destructive visit by a fleet of bombers carrying incendiary bombs," said the ace who was credited with shooting down 26 enemy airplanes, "would suffice to touch off so many fires at one time that the fire-fighting forces of those congested cities could not possibly cope with the situation." He added, however, that military strategists agree such cruelty to noncombatants stiffens, rather than weakens the morale of the enemy." Kenneth L. Porter, credited with destroying six enemy planes as a member of Ihe American 14ith Squadron, said weather, terrain and distances would play a great part in determining the course of the air war in Europe.

Now an aviation consullanr, Porter ohserved: "Men have waged theoretical air wars ever since the last great war.

"If the warring nations," says Capt. E. V. Rickenhacker, the leading ace of the American Expeditionary Force, "resort to unrestricted bombing against the populations, Berlin, Paris and London will be reduced to smouldering shambles in 60 days." He adds, however, "although It is too much to hope, it may be that both the Nazis and thp Allies win see tne wisdom ot retraining from unrestricted bombing." Xo Stalemate Possible Another World War flier, W. Wallace Kellett, predicating his opinions on the tremendous growth of air power since 1918, says: "It is impossible to imacine a drawn battle or a stalemate in the sv, as is possible in trench war- fare or along great lines of fortifi- cations.

In time one side or he her must get the upper hand, destroy the others airdromes, production settle the issue unless the losers can regain control by building greater supplies of planes than thosp with the upper hand." In general, men who knew air fighting a quarter of a century ago, with tiny, relatively slow pursuit planes and lumbering bombers, today are withholding judgment on the course of air warfare in 1939 until it actually starts.
