Fitzgerald Dedicates New Tree Nursery National Forest Festival Is Celebrated By Officials At Manistee MANISTEE, Mich., July 3.-(P)-- Gov. Frank D. Fitzgerald joined in the dedication today of the Chitten- den Nursery and celebration of the national forest festival. Governor Fitzgerald was principall speaker tonight at a festival banquet here. Both state and federal cfficials par- ticipated today in the dedication of the nursery, named for the late Prof. A. K. Chittenden, head df the Michi- gan State College Forestry Depart- ment. C. A. Rindt, superintendent, un- veiled a tablet honoring the late de- partment head, and Prof. P. A. Her- bert, present dean of the college de- partment: Lyle Watts, Regional U.S. Forester; P. J. Hoffmaster, State Conservation Director, and Rep. Al- bert J. Engel participated in the ceremony, held at Wellston. Princess Wabisg-esh-iwke and State Highway Department officials, participatd. in a tree planting cere- mony. Visitors to the festival were of- fered graphic illustrations today of the birth and the death of timber- lands. For the first portion of the sec- ond day's program, officials trans- ferred the activities ' from Manistee to the town of Wellston, on M-55, for the dedication of the Chittenden Nursery, source of the almost count- less seedlings with which it is plan- ned to replenish the 1,300,000 acres of the national forest. During the afternoon the State Conservation Department and the U. S. Fo'rest Service cooperated in setting off- and then extinguishing with the most modern methods-a forest fire in a specially prepared tract of 500 trees. The dedication of the nursery at Wellston, with its 80 miles of seed beds, had a twofold purpose. Festival officials designed it as a formal send- off for the vast replanting project which the government is carrying on in the National forest and as a post- humous honor to one of Michigan's leading advocates of reforestation, Professor Chittenden. National Park Is Bequeathed To Americans Shenandoah Area Is Site Of Memorial Medicated By Roosevelt BIG MEADOWS, Va., July 3.--(P)- President Roosevelt dedicated the rolling reaches of Shenandoah na- tional park "to this and succeeding generations of Americans" today and in so doing called for more such rec- reational developments as the pro- duct of "the joint husbandry of hour human resources and our natural resources." In a natural mountain ampi- theatre, with thousands of listeners 'rouped before him-all ringed in by the curving peaks of the Blue Ridge -Mr. Roosevelt praised the .national park program as designed to provide work for the idle and conserve the beauty of the American forests. "The product of the labor of the men of the Civilian Conservation Corps, who have opened the Shenan- doah national park to the use and enjoyment of our citizens," he said, 'is as significant as though instead of working for the government they' had worked in a mill or a factory. They have a right to be as proud of their labor here as if they had been engaged in private employment." Also holding a place upon the ded- icatory program, Secretary Ickes urged greater liberality on the part of the Federal government in estab- lishing national parks, but warned: "We want no 'pork barrel' recrea- tion policy, no national parks that are log rolled through the halls of Congress. Yet we require more parks if we are wisely to anticipate future needs, and surely there is enough statesmanship in the country to set up safeguards against reckless or im- provident expenditures." Police Playing With Brunette Suspected Slayer Of Cafe Beauty, 'Pint A - Day' Valette, Is Sought CHICAGO, July 3.-(IP)-A strange game of "hide and seek" tonight con- fronted police seeking the attractive brunette wanted for questioning in the hotel room slaying of "pint-a- day" Audrey Vallette, 31, cafe beauty She died of a single bullet wound through the breast yesterday, ending a pursuit of pleasure in near north side haunts which a diary she left be- hind disclosed started several months ago. The rum soaked account of her convivial "dates" ended frequent- ly with the phrase "was I drunk?" Hunted as a key witness was Mrs. Ruth Freed, night club hostess, po- ,lice said they had identified as a visitor to Miss Vallette's room short- ly before she telephoned the hotel deskman, "I've been shot." The "hide and seek" centered around Mrs. Freed and her husband, Edward, partner in the "nut house," a North Clark Street gay spot, and described by police as an admirer of Audrey Vallette.

Mrs. Ruth Barr, deputy probate register, said a report of the estate's administrator, Dennis N.Taylor of Lansing, told of having dug several thousand dollars in cash and govern- ment bonds from underground "strong boxes," concealed beneath a rail fence on the farm and some piles of rock. The money and securities were packed in glass jars to protect them from moisture. Mrs. Barr said the report did not reveal the amount taken from the ground, but said she thought $5,000 would be "a good guess." Taylor de- clined to comment. Neighborhood ru- mors fixed the total at $14,000. A wnciled line in a notebook found among Hurlburt's possessions furnished the clue tokthe money's hiding place. For weeks the mean- ing of the notation "1500 ep 1200. wp." eluded Taylor, but finally he won- dered whether it did not indicate that money were buried under the east and west piles of stone. A search confirmed this. One report said a crude sketch of the rail fence supplied the clues to where the rest of the money was hidden. Hurlburt, a money lender, left an estate of $38,000 to be divided among a number of heirs, among them Amy D. Fowler, of Jackson, a niece. He died last January of a heart attack.

Helen Hayes Wins In Real Life Drama CHICAGO, July 3.-(P)-Helen Hayes, diminutive star of stage and screen, emerged a victorious heroine tonight in a real life drama that cast her as defendant in her first court role on or off the stage. A $100,000 suit that charged her with alienating the affections of her husband, playwright Charles Mac- Arthur, from his first wife,. Carol Frink, was dropped in Cook County circuit court before the tiny actress had entered one word of defense. Three times the plaintiff offered to drop the case before the defense ac- cepted. Miss Hayes, her attorneys said, in- sisted on fighting on until Mac Ar- thur's first mate took back all the "nasty" things she said about "Charlie"-those wisecracks about hocking his mother-in-law's diamond ring, and "lying on the beach ,get- ting healthy" while Miss Frink tworked, and making love by stepping on her feet, and moving from apart- ment to apartment because "the bed was too small for his feet."
