Mrs. Melva Williams, a resident of
the Alder hotel, Portland, .was the
other woman whom Clarence Johnson
intended to kill, according to a state
ment made by the confessed slayer of
Mrs. Eunice Freeman of Portland In
his cell at the state prison here Fri
day night. According to Johnson's
statement he had been keeping com
pany with Mrs. Williams and it was
her rejection of his attentions' and
the fact that she was keeping com
pany with another man that led to
his determination to kill her. Worry
over this affair and fear that Mrs.
Freeman Intended to have him re
turned to the prison at San Quentin
led to the murder of his benefactress,
he stated.
Johnson has repeatedly declared his
readiness to "swing" if only he could
have killed Mrs. Williams and has
stated several times that he would
"get her some day." Her failure to
keep an appointment is all that saved
her from the fate of Mrs. Freeman,
he declared.
The prisoner has been in a surly
mood ever since his entry into the
state prison where he is shunned by
his fellow convicts because of the at
rocity of his crime.

OFSTATEREDCROSS
The hearty endorsement of Govern
or Olcott is given' to the third annual
membership roll call of the American
Red Cross which is scheduled to be
gin November 2 and continue through
to November 11, Armistice day. '
"The accomplishments of the Am
erican Red Cross during the recent
war are too fresh In the minds of the
American people to need any com
ment from me," declares the govern
or in a statement issued this morn
ing, "but the Red Cross still has many
heavy obligations yet to the -suffering
people overseas and to returned sold
lers and sailors, especially those who
were disabled and to their families in
this country.
In addition to that the Red Cross
Is considered the national disaster re
lief agency of the American people
and stands prepared at all times to
lend aid and succor to any communi
ty devastated by fire, famine or oth
er pestilence. It ' is equipped to give
such aid and render vitally helpful
service to medical authorities in
combattng recurrences of such epl
demies as the influenza scourge. This
organization has dedicated Its activi
ties to fighting diseases and human euf
ferng. As I understand it Its financial
assistance now comes through the
money that is gained in these annual
membership roll calls. Ho money
could be more wisely given and I am
certain that no money is more wisely
used for humanitarian purposes than
that whloh makes It possible for the
American Red Cross to do ths splen
did work that It Is doing."
