No Red Carnations Today
For Confessed Slayer
SAN LEANDRO, Calif., July
18 W) There were no red car
nations today for Leslie B.
Gircth not even the faded rem
nants of the ones he had left
by the bullet-pierced body of
the beautiful young woman he
had loved.
There were only harsh Jail
bars, probing question by auth
orities and memories of the
love affair he said "people
wouldn't understand."
Gireth, 42, wealthy and prom
inent Jeweler from Glcndale,
Calif., was brought to the Ala
meda county Jail at Oakland
and booked for investigation.
Deputy District Attorney L. E.
Dayton said he had confessed he
shot and killed Dorena Hammer,
20-year-old former San Jose
State (Calif.) college co-ed, while
she slept in the luxurious auto
court here where they were reg
istered as man and wile.
"I was afraid that our interest
in each other might lead to
scandal that would ruin her
life," Dayton quoted the Jeweler,
Authorities were not sure this
was the real motive, however,
Jealousy, they thought, could
have entered the picture. Sheriff
H. P. Gleason said he was told
that Miss Hammer about a month
ago became engaged to Master
Sergeant H. L. Jones of San
Jose; that he had given her a
ring and that Miss Hammer de
clared there was a man down
south" whom she was determined
to see no more.

MARITIME GROUP
WASHINGTON, July 18 W)
The maritime commission an
nounced today that it had can
celled a contract with the Hig
gins Industries, . Inc., . of New.
Orleans, for a huge merchant
shipbuilding plant in order to
divert all available ateel into
the construction of ships at
plants already in existence, .
The commission said this ae-"
tion had been concurred, in by.
the war production board.
A. J. Higgins, head of the
firm, earlier in the day told of
the shutdown of his plant, em
ploying 10,000 men, and charged
that the steel-shortage explana-,
tion was a pretext. , .
'Maybe big steel stopped It,"
Higgins said. "Maybe we are
going to build too many ships
too cheap and too fast for those.
boys." : .
The Higgins concern had a
contract for construction of 300'
Liberty ships. . , '
'Inasmuch as it would be
1943 before the Higgins yard
could be in full scale produc-;
tion, and because the Higgins
program necessitates the crea
tion of vast new facilities such
' fhipways, shops, machine
tools, railroads, and transporta
tion and housing for workers."
the commission said, - the :
amount of steel required would
best be diverted into existing
construction."
