Veith, 61, died about four
months ago, St. Joseph County
Coroner T. C. Goraczewski es
timated. The coroner said
Veith apparently died of a can
cer condition for which he un
derwent surgery last October.
Police discovered the body
after the city health department
received an unsigned post card
which said:
"I would advise you to in
vestigate the home of the H.
Veith family. From all indica
tions the man has been dead
for several months without
burial."
The Veiths have two children,
Robert Veith and Mrs. Louise
Nye. They said their mother
had refused to allow them to see
their father during visits to the
house in recent monhs.
Mrs. Veith told them, they
said, that their father did not
want to see them. She refused
to let them enter his room.
The home is located in a good
residential district, and officers
said It was "extremely neat and
well kept.
The son and daughter had the
body removed to a local funeral
home and said religious serv
ices and burial would be held
as quickly as possible.
Police said no arrests would
be made in the case as there is
no Indiana law requiring the
burial of bodies within a pre
scribed time.

no, Attorney W. C. McCluskey,
who had represented both wom
en at the court, asked who their
husbands had fallen in love
with. "Her," said Mrs. Godard,
pointing to Mrs. Hayes, who was
pointing at Mrs. Godard.
At Reno the women met their
ex-husbands and were married
to the other's former spouse.
The two men are partners in
an electrical and plumbing busi
ness in Oregon. They had stayed
at home and cared for the busi
ness while their wives lived to
gether in Nevada long enough to
establish their legal residences
in this state and obtain divorces.

He added, "At the same time,
new immunizing procedures,
auch as already practically have
eliminated smallpox and diph
theria, will help in this process,
first probably with yellow fever,
and then possibly with polio.
"Both of these things tie in
with lengthening the life span.
There is no reason the life span
cannot be raised to at least 120
years. Not in our lifetime, but
not In the too distant future,
either."
Dr. Schaeffer said, "Infecti
ous diseases may contribute to
the speed of the aging process
. . . once they are eliminated,
man's life span will be longer.
"Also, when they are elimin
ated, medical research can turn
its full attention to the causes
of the aging process, which will
speed up prevention of early
death.
"New ideas as to the chemis
try ot the cell are developing.
When we find the causes of such
things as hardening ot the arter
ies and heart disease, we will be
on the way to lengthening life,"
he said.
