CHICAGO ITALIAN 13 SHOT TO DEATH Slain While Kneeling Prayer--Second Murder Chicago, Mar. 27.--John Infon- tana, kneeling at his prayers, was shot dead early Friday, three bul- lets in his back. He was the sees ond Ttalian to fall hefore assas- sing' bullets within 30 hours. "The Dimie" as they called Dianvond Joe Esposito, slumped to the sidewalk near his home on Wednesday night with 58 shotgun slugs in his body. Whether his murder and that of Infontana were connected police sald they did not know. Coming sn closely together, the one a sinister sequel of the other, police are pursuing a theory that the slayings were woven in the same loom. Infontana, who was 35 years old, was found on his knees, his head and shoulders fallen forwar! against the bed and blood stream- ing from the three hullet wounds. Joseph Devito, who operates the rooming house into which Infon- tana moved a week ago, found the hody. There were no witnesses and none who heard shots, police were told. Like many who have died before in Chicago's half-world gun wars, Infontana, and perhaps Esposito, was involved in the "alky," or *l- quor rackes," police said. Devito, the landlord, told them Infontana had been given a job as alcohol cooker for a west side bootlegging Bang. § in 200 Children's Spring Hats 69c So great was the response to our special on Saturday, that we wired for more of these wonderful children's spring bats, which will be offered to you again on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Committee London, Mar. 27.--The old bat- tle between those in favor of pri- vate enterprise who mostly belong to the Tory ranks, and those favor- ing governmental or municipal con. trol, in sympathy with Labor, is breaking out again.

The committee comments severe- ly on over-staffing, the inertia of employes, lack of modern instru- ments, enterprise and publicity. The report has been attacked by the Daily Herald, whose view is that the changes recommended by the committee would -be violently opposed by the telegraph workers. There is no doubt, however, that during the next few years the gov- ernment will ve to tackle the whole problem of ipeficient and costly state enterprises, and this will provide a regular battleground between Conservatives and Labor.
