GOP's No. 1 woman, today warn
ed the meeting of the National
Federation of Women's Republi
can clubs here that the Congress
of Industrial Organizations' Po
litical Action committee is en
gaged in a "long range program
to subvert democracy."
"The PAC is employing Nazi
tactics by urging that pupils in
California grade schools be
taught trade unionism," Miss
Martin declared.
I "Our schools are dedicated to
training our children to think

HON MADMAN
IS IMAGINATION
EXPERTS FIGURE
Mattoon. 111., Sept. 9 (U.R1
Police today turned to science to
determine if the "madman of
Mattoon" is a real boogie man
who paralyzes his victims with
"gardenia gas", or merely the
product of overworked Imagina
tions as a result of reading too
many comic books.
Police Chief C. E. Cole said
he would submit a piece of cloth,
reportedly impregnated with the
hypnotic gas, to the state crime
bureau at Springfield for a
chemical analysis.
The cloth, the only tangible
clue to the existence of the noc
turnal prowler, was found Tues
day night on the porch of her
home by Mrs. Carl Cordes, 45.
Mrs. Cordes suffered facial
burns and had to be hospitalized
for treatment after sniffing the
cloth, police reported.
Meanwhile, five Chicago
chemical experts discounted the
story as a hoax, saying that a
rumor, plus a whiff of clover,
ragweed, smoke or sour milk,
plus 98 per cent imagination,
have created a non-existent
prowler.
