BLOOD FOUND
ON HAMMER
AMARILLO. March 28 —<AV
Stains on the hammer with which
George 6 Hamll is alleged to have
slain his wife here January 4. were
caused by blood. Jack Wyatt, Ama
rillo City chemist, testified Satur
day in HamlTs murder trial.
Under cross-exam lntlon, Wyatt
said it was Impossible to determine
whether it was human or animal
blood
State testimony traced the ham
mer from the time witnesses said It
was found In the HamHn "honey
moon cottage." where the slaying
occurred, until it was Introduced In
evidence.
The second week of the trial end
ed with several state and about 35
defense witnesses yet to testify. Pro
secutors Indicated It would take
one or two more days before thp
state would rest its case.
Mrs. Murtal Reynolds. Oakland.
Calif., telegraph company manager.
Identified Hamlin as the man who
sent a telegraphic money order to
Mrs Hamlin on January’ 5. The
money order was exhibited to the
Jury.
W M. Percy. Amarillo airport
employe, identified the defendant
as the "John Baker” who went from
Amanllo to California January 5.
He said he noticed nothing unusual
in Hamlin’s deportment.
The state placed four other wit
nesses on the stand in an effort to
bolster its Identification of Ham
lin and strengthen its attack on
his plea of Insanity. Prosecutors
said a fingerprint expert would tes
tify Monday concerning prints
found in the Hamlin home at the
time the body wa* found.

tatives Samuel B. Hill <D-Wash.',
Vinson (D-Ky.O, Lewis (D-Md. and
Cooper (D-Tenn.)
They declined to quote the presi
dent directly, but sturdy, 71-year-old
Chairman Dougbton, obviously
pleased, told newspapermen who
surrounded him upon his return to
Capitol Hill:
“We are In agreement I don't
look for any substantial changes In
the bill as It now stands."
He said his oommittee would re
. Mime consideration of the bill Mon
day "to make sure It Is absolutely
all right’’ and have it ready for
presentation to the house by April
1—Monday after next.
Secretary Perkins had protested
frequently at a number of changes
. One. made on the recommenda
tion of 8ecr«arv Morgenthau. step
ped up the tax rate proposed for
compulsory, iontributions old age an
nuities—which the committee now
has classified as "old age benefits.’’
The labor secretary, however, was
particularly worried by changes the
committee made when it decided
that the social Insurance board,
which will handle much of the ma
chinery set up under the broad plan,
should be an independent agency
and not under the labor department.
Miss Perkins had wanted to have
some control over the board, but the
committee decided against her.
Likewise, she had made a special
trip to the capitol to express her
opposition to another committee
amendment — that exempting from
unemployment Insurance taxes em
ployers of less than 10 men.
In addition. Miss Perkins had op
posed Morganthau’s suggestion —
which the committee acoepted—that
farmers, domestics and casuals
should be exempted from the taxes
collected for old age annuities.
The tax rates imposed will remain
unchanged because the president
still Is of the opinion that the olA
! age aid and unemployment Insur
ance sj’sterns should be self-support
ing promptly.
The unemployment tax Is 1 per
cent on total payrolls beginning
January 1. 1936. and increasing 1 per
cent a year to 3 per cent. Because
state legislatures cannot act Immedi
ately. since many already have end
ed their sessions for this year, there
was some sentiment in the com
mittee for postponing the effective
date of that initial levy to 1937. But
that had by no means been agreed
to finally.
The committeemen brought away
from the white house with them a
| definite understanding that the
president was opposed to any attempt
to split the bill Into separate mea
sures. passing them separately.

FORD V-8
First Car to Close the Gap Between
Low Price and Fine Performance
The Ford V-8 occupied ■ distinctive place among
automobiles. There is no way to compare it with
any other car because there ia no other car like it.
The Ford enables you to step up into the fine-car
class in performance, beauty, comfort and safety. But
there is no stepping up in price. That is kept down
by Ford low-profit policies and unique manufacture
ing methods. These are as different as the car itself.
FROM THE $2000 PRICE CLASS
COMES THE V-8 ENGINE TO
POWER THE MOST ECONOMI
CAL FORD CAR EVER BlTlLT
What the Ford has done is to establish a new stand
ard of value. Fine-car performance isn't limited to
the well-to-do these day<*. The Ford \-8 has made it
possible for the average motorist to have the kind of
car that used to be beyond his reach.
It takes eight cylinders to give modern perform
ance. And the Ford is powered by a V-8—the finest
type of eight-cylinder engine. You have to pay more
than 82000 for that in any other car.
