N. Y. GRAND JURY
MAY PRESS CASE
Action Threatened- Unless
Thief I Arrested In
Next Few Days
NKW YOHK; Oct. 14 (United
News) A grand Jury Investigation
Into the theft of the Donahue Jew
els, valued at 1683,000 will result
unless the thief Is caught In a week.
This wss promised by Assistant
DIMrlel Attorney Pecora, after an
other conference with Noel C. Bcaf
fa, the private detective, who re
turned the Jewels lata Tuesday.
The statement spiked rumors that
tba caaa was closed.
Scarfs, police say, received the
stolen Jewels from so Intermediary.
The name of the "go-between" as
given by Scuffs to the police means
nothing to them, and It la suld that
8raff himself probably was glvon
a ficlllloua namo.
I'ecura reaffirmed his opinion
that the. Jewels wore taken by a
sneak thief, although police at first
said only a "master crook" would
have attempted to engineer the
crime.
A week, then abould be ample
for Scarfs to get on the trail of tho
thief and bring about his arrest,
working with the police department,
Pecora said.
There aro two possible clues In
the case. One lies In the fact that
a beaded handbag wee among the
Jowols. when they were stolen, while
Mrs. Jessie Woolworth Donahue,
daughter of F. V Woolworth, tho
five and ten-cent store magnate, was
In her bath In ber suite at the
Plasa hotel. September 30.
When Sraffa returned the two
missing pearl necklaces and the dia
mond ring, the bag was not with
them. If the bag turns up the po
lice muy be able to trace It to the
thief.

SOUTH TO FIGHT
FOR 2 DELEGATES
Representation Is Sought on
Tariff and Interstate
Commissions '
WASHINGTON. Oct. 14. (United
News) The south, forging ahead
rapidly as an Industrial section, is
preparing to wage a fight in the
next congress for representation on
two agencies of the government
which have to do with commerce
and business the Interstate com
merce commission and the tariff
commission.
At the present time neither of
these two Important independent
agenciea has a member from the
southeast or southwest. Southern
members of congress feel that the
section has been slighted, and with
Its recent trend toward industrial
power will necessarily require rep
resentation, as botQ of these' agen
cies' nave authority In Important
commercial fields.
There was a rumble of dissatis
faction last year because of this lack
of representation. It Is growing
stronger, and will break forth In
earnest In the coming congress.
The fight for a place on the In-
terstate commerce commission will
take first a negative turn In an
effort to prevent the confirmation
of Thomas F. Woodlock of New
York, who was given a recess ap
pointment by President Coolidge
last year, after the senate had re
jected him. Coolidge appointed
Woodlock in the face of urgent ap.
peals from southern members of
congress that a man from their sec
tion be named,
Democrats were joined by several
independent republicans, who did
not approve of Woodlock. to bring
about his rejection, and it appears
certain that the commissioner, a
former editor of the Wall Street
Journal, will be turned down again,
