Clyde Insisted that Mary ran Into the creek after the attack and he never aaw here again. A search was started for her Friday morning, but the body was found downstream by a farm woman. Mary came here about a year ago from a farm near Splro, Okla., and worked in a night club near Pt.

Carkln of Salem, member of the state tax commission and former local resident, appeared this morning before the county court relative to tax matters between the county and the tax commission. The county court today also stud led the old age, pension Isw. The federal old age pension bill Is not definitely settled by congress and it conflicts with the state old age pen sion law upon age and length of residence qualifications of appll- ca n t. The f edera 1 la w, aa now written, provides for the state, and county to pay $16 and the govern ment per month, with a maxi mum of 30 monthly. The foderni law fixes the age at 65 years ana the state law at 70 years. The stnte law requires 16 years' residence in the state and the federal law fixes no residence period. County Judge Day said today there was nothing the county court could do but continue with Its present policy of payments until the con flicting clauses of state and feelers 1 law ttcie reconciled.
