EVERYTHING QUIET
ON RIVER FRONT
SUSPECTED RIVER TRAG
EDY TURNS INTO FARCE
AS VICTIM RETURNS
For the last several days the fam
ily of six-year-old Willie Davis, ne
gro, of 116 West Harris street, had
believed him drowned —and was
thinking about funeral plans when
the body should be found. Plans for
the funeral were dropped yesterday
Willie was found very much allve (
and got a healthy hug from his
mother—and a good licking.
Detectives announced Saturday
the “confession" of J. W. Bryant,
age 10, who lives at 435 Tattnall
•street. They said the ten-year-old
youngster had told them he gave Wil
lie a shove Thursday off the dock at
the foot of West Broad street which
• sent the negro sprawling into the
river. The alleged “confession" re
ported the reason for the push was
that the negro “wouldn’t get out of
the way." The Bryant boy was
turned over to the Juvenile authori
ties yesterday when Willie showed up.
Police Officer G. M. Riley and E.
F. Kenard sighted a commotion at
Tattnall and Alice streets Sunday
morning. Upon inquiry they found a
struggling Willie who had been recog
nized by a negro woman. The boy
bit the woman in hts efforts to free
himself but failed to get away. Later
Willie said he had caught a ride "up
the country." Thursday and had been
there until his return yesterday. The
little negro boy said he hadn't been
’.r the river Thursday. Detectives
■who secured the “confession” from
the Bryant boy pondered. Os one
thing, anyway, they were sure. Wil
lie wasn’t drowned.:

Chatham Vets at Home
Chatham’s war veterans will be
“at home” this afternoon from 5:30
on, but perhaps not for social rea
sons alone. A special delivery of mail
will be made at that time, bringing
the long-awaited bonus bonds. If vet
erans are not acquainted with their
postman, they must find someone who
is, for delivery of the bonds will be
made only after a positive identifica
tion is made to the mailman’s satis
faction. Those desiring bo forego the
three per cent interest the bonds will
bear if held, and obtain the cash im
mediately. must then hie to the local
post office for another identification.
Several local civic and veterans’ or
ganizations will be on hand bo effect
this second check.
The next step in the ritual pre
scribed by Uncle Sam to insure the
baby bonds getting to the right par
ties only will be to present the bonds
at the parcel posb windows, where a
receipt will be issued. Checks on the
United States treasurer, cashable
anywhere, will then be mailed to the
veteran’s home address within 24
hours.
The cycle thus completed, nothing

‘BOUNCER’ TAKEN
BY DETECTIVES
ALLEGED SUSPECT IN
CHILD DRINKING CASE
INCARCERATED
Jesse Galton, alias “Bouncer,’’
the negro whom police charge with
makin..g a five-year-old negro boy
drink a large quantity of whisky
which nearly cost the child his life,
was taken in custody at 1:10 o’clock
this morning by Police Officer J. J.
Dillon. The child, Gus Floyd, Jr.,
553 West Gaston street, left Charity
Hospital Saturday and attendants
said the boy had completely recover
ed.
Upon the arrest of Galton, Detec
tive Sergeant E. A. Fitzgerald recog
nized the man as one with whom po
lice had come In contact before. The
sergeant said he did not think Gal
ton gave the child the liquor with
any harmful intention. The child
had been ill and police were inclined
to believe “Bouncer" had persuaded
the boy to imbibe the liquor in the
misguided hopes of it benefiting him.
About a week ago "Bouncer” called
at the Floyd home and took the child
away, later returning him in a
drunken stupor. Police had been
seeking Galton ever snee in vain. No
formal charge has yet been placed
against the prisoner.

the Rails in the markets technical
picture is just now important. In
dustrials o nthe other hand penetrat
ed the June 11 close, the high of the
recovery from the April decline, by
2.3 points. Rails went through their
June 11 high by less than 2-tenths of
a point and that does not quite make
decisive confirmation. The Utilities
back and filled on a light volume, one
must allow for seasonal business re
cessions in the next few weeks, un
less bonus spending becomes more of
a stimulant to # trade than conserva
tive calculations show. The point is
that potential business from the
bonus money is apt to be, but must
not be, over-rated. I am aware of a
widespread expectation that there will
be market strength this week largely
as a matter of bonus psychology, to
be followed by reaction next week,
when the Democratic Convention
meets. If there is reason for reaction
ary influences to be dominant next
week, there is reason for caution this
week.
TOPlCS—United Corpn, a month
ago we told of huge accumulation.
Seems in deflnte up trend now and
believe will reach ten some time this
year.
Stone & Webster, another Utility
showing defnite strength. Here also
our buying recommendation from low
er levels were definite.
Westinghouse Electric, favor buy
ing weakness for trading profits.
Radio Corpn, Radio business is com
ing back big and profitable. Looks
like a good buy here.
Goodrich Tire & Rubber, Our buy
recommendation while stock was sell
ing under 20 seems Justified.
Southern Rwy Pfd, goes into new
high ground for the year. Would con
tinue to hold.

Coal Strike Perils
BRUSSELS, June 15 (TP)—Bel
gium’s new cabinet will hold its first
meeting today while the threat of a
paralyzing coal strike darkens the
country’s industrial sky.
.Crowds of miners in the Belgian
coal fields threaten to stage a walk
out today unless their demands for
wage increases, better working con
ditions and old-age pensions are
granted. Workers already are on the
picket lines in the big Antwerp, Leige
and Hainault Province coal mines.
Today, the coal strike threatens to
spread to every coal mine in the
country.
Premier Van Zeeland has promised
to take up the coal situation as one
of the first steps on his new cabinet.
Belgium has been minus a cabinet
for the past month.
