HE POUNCES ON VICTIMS IN DARKNESS Seizes Ankles, Council Bluffs Young Women Report High School Group Forms “Anti-Ape Club.” Council Bluffs, la., April 2 (Spe cial).—Council Bluffs has -»n ape man. He crawls on his hands and knees, darts out from behind bushes and seizes young women by the legs. He has the appearance of a gorilla, ac cording to victims of his attacks. Four Council Bluffs women steno graphers said Monday they had armed themselves with ammonia pistols. And they’re carrying an ex tra supply of hatpins, too, they an nounced. The armament was ac quired after encounters with the “ape man.” Mildred Kirkpatrick, Edith Breed love, Helen Breedlove and Helen Sut ton, all Council Bluffs stenographers, showed police tiny ammonia re volvers. Seizes One by Ankle. Late Sunday night Grace and Pauline Nicely were returning to their homes when the “ape man" crawled out from behind a clump of bushes. He seized one of the girls by the ankle. Their screams apparently fright ened the moron away. Thus far none of the girls attacked has been injured, but all of them have been badly frightened. Omaha and Council Bluffs police have been asked to capture the roam ing “ape man.” Fourteen high school girls, armed with ammonia guns, joined police Monday in searching the district in the vicinity of the Council Bluffs high school for the man. Mrs. D. Thomsen, who was walk ing near the school Sunday night became so hysterical following an at tempted attack by the "ape man” that she had to be ^iken to a hos pital. Another of his victims is suf fering from hysterics at home. Because of the fear of the “ape man” a group of girls of the Council Bluffs high school have organized the “Anti-Ape club”. They go home from school in quartets and one or two of the girls carry limmonia guns. HUSBAND SAYS HE’S HIDING CHILD BRIDE Omaha Man Refuses to Give Up Sioux City Girl to Father and Sister.

MIFIS1S FACE War Department to Assail So cieties as Dangerous— Woman Organization Involved. BY GEORGE M. BATTEY, JR. Universal Swvice Correspondent. Washington, April 2.—The war de partment will issue a strong state ment in a few days declaring that so called peace societies are a menace to the country, it was learned Mon day. One of these societies, the National Council for the Prevention of War, is so close to the war department building that a miniature war will be waged across the street. The Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, a branch of the above organization, will come in for considerable of the war depart ment’s epistolary darts, because of its activities, whicli army officials con sider misguided and dangerous. Council Official Replies. These societies are planning some “warfare" of their otwn, Frederick J. Libby, executive secretary of the national council, declared: “We welcome any facts the war department may have, and hope a wide distribution will be given them We say let the people have the facts, and they can judge." The department, it is understood, is busy, getting its data together. The showing will include charts and a comparison of the military estab lishments of this ccWlntry and the countries of Europe and Japan, pop ulation comparisons and other pert inent matters. General Speech Protested. Brig, Gen. Amos A. Fries, chief of the chemical warfare service, deliv ered a speech Sunday night in Balti more by which he added fuel to the smouldering embers in this situation. The national council sent a letter rec ently to Secretary of War Weeks pro testing against speeches made by Fries in which he charged that the council was the vehicle of communism in America. Secretary Weeks replied that he could n*t undertake to cen sor the opinions of army officers, de livered unofficially. In his Baltimore speech Fries is al leged to have charged that the Wo men’s International League of Peace and Freedom exacted the following oath of members: “Believing that true peace can only be secured through reconcilia tion and good will, and that no cause justifies the organized destruction of human life, I urge immediate and un iversal disarmament and promise never to aid in any way the prosecu tion of war.” Pries Asked To Retract. The women’s league has sent, to Fries a demand for retraction of these sentiments, and he is requested to retract when he next speaks, Tues day night, in Connecticut. It claims that this clause was adopted in another form by the “Womens Peace Society of New York.” This society is said to he a smaller organization independent of the other two. The clause quoted, it was further stated, was voted down in the recent con vention of the nationla council. Fries is the army officer chosen to lay a barrage of oratory around the pacifistic group. The controversy promises to develop a sensation, since it has been simmering under the sur face a long time. TURMEETO NEW CONFERENCE Accept Allied Invitation to Meet on Peace Treaty at Lausanne April 15. Constantinople, April 2 (U. P.)— Menace of war in the Near East was further averted Monday when Tur key accepted terms of an Allied note and agreed to resume the Lausanne peace conference on April 15. The Angora council drew up a reply to a note framed by the Allies at their recent London conference, while Ismet Pasha, Turk envoy, packed up ft*r a trip to the Swiss city where the par ley will be resumed in a fortnight. Although the Turks, after reject ing the recent treaty of Lausanne, which Great Britain insisted must be accepted as it stood, interposed some new ideas and arguments, the most recent Allied note was conciliatory and was accepted in the same spirit by the Turks. Tension here, believed near the breaking point, has eased consider ably, with the Turks feeling they have scored diplomatically. KLAN ISSUES INJECTED INTO MUNICIPAL FIGHT East St. Louis, III., April 2 (A. P.) —Intense feeling and keen rivalry be tween Ku Klux Klan and anti-klan forces marks the closing hours of the municipal election campaign here, ac cording to a news article printed to day by the St. Louis Globe-Demo crat.

Pittsburgh, Pa„ April 2 (A. P.)— Elmer M. Kidney, a lawyer, who Sunday tdre the masks from half a dozen hooded men in the Bellevue Methodist Episcopal church today re fused to discuss the incident other than to say he had plans which would develop in due time. The Rev. Dr. R. B. Urmy, who was in the pulpit of the church in the midst of Easter services, when the ine'n entered, said he would have nothing more to do with the matter. Any action, Mr. Kidney may take will be for himself and not for the shurch. "So far as I am concerned,” said Dr. Urmy. "the incident is closed. These men, masked and robed, walked into our church and were really disturbing a religious meeting when I invited them to retire. Such a disturbance is i/\ violation of the lew but I meant what I said when I told them they were welcome if they would remove their disguises." GAS TAX BEilG TALKEDTD DEATH Differences Over Distribution of Receipts Believed to Foreshadow Demise of Measure. Des Moines, la., April 2 (Special).— Following another round of debate on the gasoline tax bill in the Iowa house Monday, many local observers view the prospect of any gasoline tax at this session as rather doubtful. The battle Monday was on a pro posal to give county boards the option of applying one third of the gasoline tax on primary roads. The proposal was decisively defeated, 70 to 26. There is pending in the house the socalled Edson committee bill, which has been proposed as an amendment to the senate gasoline tax bill, the principal feaure of the Edson amend ment, is that it applies all of the gas oline tax fund to county and town ship roads, ordinarily defined as sec ondary roads. McClune, of Mahaska cofnty, had introduced a substitute for the Edson amendment which gave county hoards the option of applying one third of the gasoline tax funds on primary roads. Argument Deferred. * After an hour’s discussion, in which most of the members talking on the question indicated an intention to support the Edson plan, a vote was taken on the McClune substitute and it was defeated, 70 to 26. Further consideration of the question then was deferred until Wednesday aft ernoon. *v McClune showed signs of being peeved after the defeat of his sub stitute and said that he would vote against a gasoline tax under the plan of applying all ot it on secondary roads. He opposed the motion to ! defer action and suid the ax might as well be used on the measure now as later. Lake, of Woodibury, also spoke in opposition to the motion to defer action. Both Lake and Fors - j ling supported the McClune substi ' tute. Houses Can’t Agree. It Is claimed that the senate will i not accept any plan which gives less than one half of the gasoline tax fund to primary roads. The house, on the other-hand, seems to lie equally set In the feeling that all of the fund should go to secondary roads. Members of the house committee who partici pated in drafting the Edson amend ment made the statement on the floor Monday that the primary roads, con stituting only 7 per cent, of the roads ■>f the state, now get approximately 110,000,000 dollars a year through the motor vehicle tax and federal aid. As an offset to that, they contend that It is not unreasonable to apply $5,000, 000 dollars a year on the other 93 per cent, of the roads. Protests from Woodbury and other counties seem to have started an ef fective backfire against the Clark bill, House File No. 758, which proposes to establish a commission plan for boards of education. Representative Clark had circularized all of the members of the house and senate ^n behalf of his bill and apparently had made some converts. Back Sioux City View. The reaction has definitely set in, however, and most of the members seem to take the view reflected in the Chamber of Commerce meeting at Sioux City, to the effect that the pro posed change would substitute polit ical jobs for the unselfish service now existing in most communities in connection with school board affairs. The rumor current in Sioux City tUat Mayor Short had been doing some missionary work for the Clark hill cannot he verified by any traces of such activities here. Woodbury county members of the legislature declare themselves against the Clark bill, and state that they have not been approach J on the subject by Mayor Short PECORA DROPS DOROTHY KING MURDER INQUIRY Universal Service. New York, April 2.—So far as the district attorney’s office is concerned, It appeared Monday that the myster ious mul'der of Dorothy King, on whom J. Kearsley Mitchell, multi millionaire of Philadelphia, lavished money and attentions, would be udded to the list of New York's unsolved murders. Assistant District Attorney Pecora has announced that he would drop the case, leaving the continuation of the hunt for the murderer to the po lice department. "I understand the police have new blackmail clues they are following up,’’ Pecora said in anounclng the fin ish of the case in his office. “Made Me Well and Strang” ANOTHER WOMAN WHO IS THANKFUL FOR PE-RU-NA ••I lure token «»ver*l bottle* of Fe-ro-na and find II a great benefit.
