neclares Argument Over Dress Precipitated Attaeii I 7 In Statement By Arthur Brisbane About Banks. Queen Mary's Party. Some Laws, and Others. Two Women Hanged. A sudden fit of insane rage culminating an argument over a sleeveless dress his step-daughter was wearing, ijpday for the tragedy yesterday in which Alva "Ray Loden, 29, beat and shot the girl, Josephine Mullen, and then killed himself.

Josephine, who is 13 years old, made a brief statement this to Dr. J. R. Wrather at the Northwest Texas Hospital, in which she told of the attack. The child has a good chance for recovery, the physician said, although she has been unconscious most of the time since she was found heaten and shot at her home at 10 o'clock yesterday morning.

Bhe has severe gashes on her head from blows" with the butt of a rifle, and a bullet wound ranging through the elde of her head. Funeral Today. mineral services for Loden will be-held at 5 o'clock this afternoon from Griggs Funeral Chapel, with Ferrel Fox, pastor of the West AmarilJo First Christian Church, officiating. Pallbearers will be Glen Green, Frank Woods, Zane Smith, Don Ostrander, Harry Daily and Bob Splcer. Burial will be held in Uano Cemetery.

The girl told Dr. Wrather this morning that her step-father had been despondent since he was released from the Potter County jail last week, after serving 30 days on a liquor conviction. He was jobless, and was becoming more and more Irritable, she said. "Father seemed to get angry every time anyone spoke to him," she said. No Wanting Given.

"One of my aunts had sent two sleeveless dresses, one for me and one for my sister, Lillian. Father hated of that kind, and wouldn't let us wear them. But yesterday morning I put mine on anyway, and when I went into Ihe house he started scolding me about It. He was sitting down cleaning a rifle all the time he was talking. All at once he got up and struck mo with It.

"I started running, and he took after me, swinging the gun. The last- thing I remember was hearing a shot." Dr. Wrather said the girl's condition prohibited further questioning nt the time, but that If she continued to improve, another statement would be taken from her. She regained consciousness for a white this morning, and recognized her mother, and her sister, Lillian. The tragedy was enacted at the Loden home, 86 Western Avenue, yesterday morning.

President Hoover says we "need greater protection for bank deposits," and we do, MUCH greater. An old poker player, when he raised the betting, used to say, "the to discourage vice is to make It expensive." The way to discourage bank failures is to make them dangerous for those responsible. In Germany, when a bank fails, the president usually commits suicide.

Helium City The case of Al Capone, who pleads guilty of violating income tax and prohibition laws, sffiws whnt tho government can and cannot do. It can enforce its Income tax laws, and so the treasury department seizes Capone. It cannot enforce prohibition laws and Capone's business will go on as usual while he Is in prison, directed, probably, by himself, through lieutenants. In Hungary, Rose Chor.is, aged 58, and Amelia Szabo, 43, poisoned four members of their families.

One woman fainted when she saw the gallows, and never heard her sentence read. The other fainted, listening to the sentence. Both, unconscious, were literally carried to the gallows by the hangman, who did his work with tears running down his cheeks. An apprentice hangman. Botos, learning the trade and seeing the real hangman tremble and weep profusely, changed his mind about profession.

That execution will interest civilized historians ot the future, when they write our history. Russian wickedness continues.
