New York police probe a Brooklyn death after six year old Helen Stevler was found murdered in a cellar. A strangling clothesline and a partially eaten mint candy indicate a calculated crime. Detectives suspect a local offender who lured the child from the street near a variety store.

Fianna Fail Leads Ireland Victory In Dail Election
In Dublin on January 26 AP reports incomplete returns show Eamon De Valera's Fianna Fáil winning a decisive plurality in Tuesday's election for the Dáil. The party appears set to gain the presidency without other parties' votes, with 22 seats to 10 for Comann na Gaedheal and independents also winning seats. The shift signals a stronger Fianna Fáil majority and a move toward liquidation of tariff tensions with Britain. Also noted: an Oneida Tenn. tragedy where 13-year-old George Pennington died after an engine incident, and Treasury receipts for January 24 totaling 8.28 million with expenditures 4.79 million.
