Needed Can't Be Provided, Because of Retrenchment. GEN. CONNOR SPEAKS Huge Sum Proposed for Air Service Not Justified - If Other Branches Are Not Aided. (Assorhtfd Ftms M WU.) WASHINGTON. Oct 16. Brlgi-dler-General Fox Conner, finance officer of the army, told the presl dent'a air board today that because . of the "economy policy of the gov ernment,' the war department had been unable to Increase the ilie of the army air serrlce aa recom mended by the board headed by Major-General William Lasslter. "So long as the ammunition re serve Is disappearing," he said, "all money demands Increasing dne to exhausting of stocks, animals re tained In serrlce beyond their use fulness and 40,000 officers and men living In war-time shacks, the war department would. In my opin ion, be quite unjustified In urging the Lasslter board program to the exclusion of all else. There would be little left for the rest of the army If the Lasslter board program were put Into effect without in creasing total appropriations.'' General Conner told of other pro blems of financing facing the war ' department. "The department," he said, "has programs for strength ening our defenses both In the air and on shore, in Oshu and Panama a program for a slight Increase in the regulsr army other than air, the national guard program : the organized reserves officers training corps, and the citizens' military training camps program; and oth ers as well. "Altogether the war department has 13 separate programs: some of which have received approval and some of which have not Taken separately each may make out a case of vital Importance. But each would cost additional large sums of money and If all were put Into effect the cost of the army would reach more than 1400.000.000 in a single year. Under the present pollcq of paying off the national debt an dreducing taxation no such sum is available. SPECTACLES THAT WILL MATCH DRESS LATEST PARIS FAD f tuorlattd Prus Vnuti Wlrr.t PARIS.

TRACKS FURNISH CLUE Evidently Made Prisoner by Homesteader After Murder of Escort Last Sunday. ' (Aanrlatrd Prcs Lrurd Win.) EUREKA. Cal.. Oct. 16. Carmen Wagner, 18-year-old beauty parlor operator of Ferndale, who has been missing since Sunday, la the pri soner of a demented homesteader near Showers' Paas, sixty miles northeast of here. A posse of twenty men has surrounded the district and plans to close In on the couple this afternoon. This Information was brought here today by Deputy Sheriff Clyde Randle, who - returned from the Shower's Pass region. The Wagner girl and an uaiden- 'Med man have been sought since the discovery Sunday of the body of Henry Sweet shot to death be side his auto in a wild section of the Humboldt mountain country. Sweet and Miss Wagner were on a hunting trip with the other man. Early in the search the theory was advanced that Sweet was shot and killed by this man, who then abducted Miss Wagner. Deputy Randle made s hurried trip to Enreka today tor food and ammunition and was to return Im mediately to the Showers Pass sec tion with reinforcements to cap ture Miss Wagner's supposed ab ductor and to rescue the girl. Randle said he had not seen the couple, but had authentic informa tion that Miss Wagner was being held captive, by the demented homesteader. EUREKA, Cal., Oct 16. Leland IBryant, bachelor rancher, was questioned by the Humboldt coun- ty district attorney before a coro- proprietor. Miss Wagner dropped from sight after the killing and a search is now being conducted for her. The pointed questions put to Bryant by the district attorney last night were significant. He brought Bryant before the father and brother of Mlsa Wagner and the coroner's Jury asked him in rather dramatic fashion: "Mr. Bryant, can you look these people squarely in the eye and say you do not know where Miss Wan ner Is, or who it was killed Henry Sweet?" "I csn," Bryant answered calmly- "Your conscience la perfectly clear?" again queried the Interro gator. "Clear as a bell," answered Bry ant. Bryant wss not detained, Raymond Shields, 32, of Brlrigo vllle, came to Eureka early this morning snd said that he had dis covered the footprints of a woman aul a dog on a deserted trail In the hills 60 miles from Eureka. Shields also brought a piece of rib bon of the same color and texture as one worn by Miss Wagner. Miss Wagner took a dog with her on the hunting expedition whlcl ended in Sweet's death.
