DEFENSE BEGINS KIDNAPERS’ PLEA Trial of Alleged Urschel Kidnaoers Enters Elev enth Day OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLA.,—(#) The eleventh day of the Charles F. Urschel kidnaping conspiracy trial brought A. M. Cary Minneapolis lawyer, before the jury to plead for the Twin Citieg defendants, Accused, of being the ‘‘money changers” who sought to conceal pary of the $200,000 ransom paid for the oil man’s release, the five —Barney Berman, Isadore ]Blumen feld, Clifford Skelly, Sam Bron ick and Sam Kozberg—have de clared ‘they were unaware the money was “hot.” Cary enlarged on this theme, citing the voluntary surrender of the men to federal officers, and brought up the legal question of whether the conspiracy angle ex tends to a kidnaping case after the victim is released. ‘Circumstanfial evidence war fantg conviction under the law’, sald Carey, “but when it does not exclude every other pdssible hy bothesis except one of guilt, the law imposes on you the duty to declare the defendant innocent, “A chain of circumstantial evi dence is no stronger than its weak €st link. “These defendants are merely Charged with wilfully, knowingly and unlawfully possessing, con cealing and exchanging the ransom money. Money flows freely, and €vidence that they exchanged the money creates no presumption of guilt, “It is the duty of the government o establish beyond a reasonable doubt that they had knowledge of the agreement to kidnap.” KELLY CHANGES COLOR MEMPHIS, Tenn. — (&) — A strange looking spectacle, George “Machine Gun” Kelly chafed in his Prison cell here Friday as federal 4gents moved guardedly with their plans to change his address to sim ular quarters at Oklahoma City.

ACCUSED ADMITS FIRING REICHSTAG Marinus Van Der Lubbe Makes Unequivocal Ad mission of Guilt LEIPZIG, GERMANY. _ () — Marius an Der Lubbe made an unequivocal admission of guilt in the burning of the German Rgic- stag building at F'riday’s session of the case in which he and four oth & ‘men are on trial. Judge Wilhelma /Buenger an nounced Van Der Lubbe would give his own version of the burning; thereupon the defendant standing with drooping shoulders and down cast eyes replied hasitantly and re luctantly as Buenger on a basis of an earler confession, drew a con firmation from Van Der Lubbe. “Do you admit setting fire your self to the Reichstag?’ the judge demanded. : Almost inaudibly Van Der Lubbe replied ‘yes,” Later, in response to repeated prodding, Van Der Lube added “I had no intention of so doing when I awoke that day. The idea came to me ag I walked past the Reichsfag at two o'clock I spent the after ncon in a surburb returning to the city at eight o’clock. MORE FORD PLANT JOIN STRIKE TODAY Threat Made by Pennsyl vania Workers to Picket Dearborn Plant ' DETROIT—(#)—The Ford Motot compuny, for many years free from strikes, Friday was beset with labor troubles in its assembly plants ir Chester, Pa., Edgewater N. J., and Richmond, Calif. There was even a threat by the Chester strikers to come en masse to Michigan and picket the Ford plant at Dearborn. If they should carry out that threat, it would be the first such demonstration there by bona fide workmen. Twe “marches” on the Ford plant were attempted within the past two years, one resulting in four fatal ities, but both were directed by avowed communist sympathizers. Ford officials, who announced Thursday that they were returning to five days a week, abandoning the four-day schedule which is one basis for the strikers’ complaints withheld comment on other de mands, which include a $5 daily minimum wage, a seven hour day and union recognition. Such recognition would necessi tate a complete reversal of a Ford policy that has never yet been® violated, and which has been con sidered an important factor -in Henry Ford's’ refusal to sign the NRA code. . Meanwhile, John M. Carmody. representing the national labor board, prepared Friday to set be fore employers from Detroit, Flint and Pontiac the demands of sev eral thousand striking tool and die makers. He said he expected to bring abou; a settlement that would “provide a living for both sides.” The strikers Thursday night set forth their demands as 5 per cenl wage increases and a change in the present 40-hour week to give greater employment. New Plan to Establish End of Dry Era Worked Out by Department of Justice WASHINGTON. —(P)— Justice Department offcials have worked out a plan which hey believe would remove the last lingering doubt as to when, ;f prohibition is repealed, the last moment of the dry era will arrive, In spite of a Supreme Court de cision to the contrary, some have insisied that regardless of when the 36th state ratifies the 21st{ amendment repealing the 18th, the dry laws will remain effective until the formal proclamation of the se cretary of state is issued. ‘ Under the Justice departmenit's scheme, the proclamation would be given the same date as that of the 86th states ratification. If this plea is used—a final decision has vet so be made—officials say there would be no doubt that prosecutions brought for violations after the 36th ratification would ndt stand in the courts, However most officlals of the department and eminent constitu URGANIZED LABOR THREATENS APPEAL TONEXT CONGRESS Head of Labor Federation Savs Such a Step Is Necessary DEMANDS SHORT DAY Labor’s . Opposition to Relaxation in Wage Raising Voiced " WASHINGTON—(#)— Organized labor Friday threatened an appeal from the NRA to congress to se cure a 30-hour work week in re- covery codes. William Green, president, gave this notice at a pre-convention gathering of some American Fede ration of Labor members. Even then, a number of NRA officials were considering possibilities of temporarily relaxing present stand ards of _wage-raising and .hour shortening efforts so far as they affect the construction and allied industries. Green’s 30-hour week demand virtually clinched the absolute op position of union labor to any ‘'such plan, whether for the con ‘struction or any other industry. NRA officials giving thought to the problem also were quick to emphasize that their considerations must be reviewed by Hugh S. Johnson before approaching the stage of final drafting. Green told the metal trades de partment of the American federa tion of labor Thursday that “the slack in employment is not being taken up as rapidly as conditions demand.” He added: Six Hour Day Remedy “The one remedy that must be employed is a six-hour day, five day week. Unless fthe existing codes are modified and the new ones so phraged that they approxi mate that level, then labor will be compelled to go to congress this winter as it did last session and support a bill for a six-hour day, five-day week.” No code yet promulgated has reduced maximum working hours to 30 a week. At NRA headquar ters, officials said the study being given the construction industry. including the possibility of grant ing even higher maximum hours than have yet been approved, was founded on a desire to keep labor cogts down in order to attract cap ital investment. With Johnson still in the hos pital, labor difficulties continued to dominate the NRA. though rou tine work on a number of codes including aluminus and banking pressed forward. Senator Wagner (D.-N. Y.) chairman of the na tional labor bhoard, planned, if nec essary, direct negotiations with Henry Ford to encourage the re opening of his Chester. Pa., plant. It was closed after strike troubles Talmadge Says Burns Not to Get Clemency While Out of Georgia ATLANTA, Ga.—(AP)—Robert Elliott Burns, who escaped twice from Georgia chaingangs and wrote what state officials called a highly imaginative book about it, can expect no clemency as long as he remains a fugitive, says Gover nor Eugene Talmadge. Burns now is living ni East Or ange, N. J., protected by the re fusal of the governor of that state to grant extradition after he was arrested there. From East Orange, where he is in busniess, Burns filed his plea for pardon through Murphy Hol loway, Atlanta lawyer. He has some time yet to serve on a rob bery conviction. ; |titional lawyers in private practice here as well, beiieve there can be no question but that the 21st amendment will become operative as soon as ratified, regardless of the proclamation.

MEYER | ATLANTA, — (#) — Georgia's lincome from property taxeg is go ing te be sharply lower this year, but Governor FEugene Talmadge says the situation is not serious, but, on the other hand, will make for- greater economy in govern ' ment, “Ont of the best ways I knbw of to reduce governmental expen ses—to get economy in govern ment—is to cut governmental re venues”, he says. Tax digests from the wvarious counties generally this year are showing a reductlon in assess ments, which meang that there will be a smaller amount subject to faxation. In addition, Governor = Talmadge reduced the state’'s ad valorem (property) tax levy from five mills to four mils, which will cut the siate’'s revenue from this source «¢ven more. ’ Just how much of a reduction the two factorg will bring has annt ‘been determined by tax experts at the capitol. In 1932, the aggregate value of property for taxation was $933,- 043,022. The amount of state tax on thig amount, including professional and poll taxes, was $5169,922 in 1932, after deductions for defaul ter's. The digests themselves are ex pected to show a decrease in val uation of around 10 per cent. The assessments for 1932 and 1933 in Clarke county were $14,089,250 and $12,256,750.

At present the average Is $6.51 per month, he said here Thursday, and “the government will not go into partnership in any starvation basis relief work.” ' He said the average would be raised to sl2 in rural districts and $lB in the cities. “Relief should provide actual necessities of life to those who are destitute and unemployed,” he said. “Starvation relief does no good."” He compared the average expen- Aiture in Georgia with $35 in New York city, S2B in Washington and $32 in {Baltimore.

Loan : GEORGIANS HOPEFUL Delegates Emphasize Fact That No Outright " Grant Is Asked ° ATLANTA.—(®P)—An appeal dl rect to President Roosevelt in a fi nal.effort to obtain a share of tha $3,300,000,000 federal public works fund for Georgia was planned here Friday as a delegation from this state sped homeward from Washe ington with the refusal of publie works administrators to waive ses ‘curity requirements on the loans. s Ryburn G. Clay, Atlanta banker and member of the Georgia public works advisory board, said hope would not be given up until Geor lgla’s case had been presented to the chief executive. 'When such an appeal could be made was problematical, since the president is not due back in Washington from Hyde Park until Oectober 5, The plea ig to be based on an lamendment to the Recovery Act, sponsored by Senator Russell (D.- Ga.) which Georgia public works officials say gives the president authority to extend benefits of tha act, under such rules as he may prescribe, to states, counties, and municipalities notwithstanding anw legal or constitutional restrictions on the rights of such governmental subdivisions to borrow. The Georgians urged that funds be released for works in this state with the governmentretaining title to the improvements wuntil the cities and counties are financially able to take them over, or until rentals can pay them out, 1 The stumbling block holding up Georgia loans ds a constitutional limitation on the borrowing powes ‘of cities and counties which in nus merous cases has made them un-. able to put up the bonds required as collateral for works loans. Attorneys for the Public Works board ruled Thursday, despite the Russell amendment, that the Re covery Act permits loans to be made only on the basis of adee quate legal guarantee. They dee clined to carry the question to Ate torney General Cummings for a ruling. ; Secretary Ickes added at a w conference that the Public r%i administration, which he heads, i§ “not concerned with state constis tutional limitations”.
