CONFESSED SLAYER
PLEADS NOT GUILTY
Changes Answer When he
Learns Neck Can Not Be
Saved Otherwise

SACRAMENTO. May 3.-FIoyd v.
Carter. he confessed murderer OF his
six months bride, Verna Phipps Car
ter. today pleaded not guilty before
Judges Hughes. and his trial was set
for May %. Carriers action in plead
ing not guilty TO a crime which he ad-
mitted was somewhat of a surprise, but
he decided upon this action when he
learned that his neck could not be
saved by agreement.
The local police have been doing
their utmost to save Carter from
death by hanging. and not until today
was it known wherein their interest
lay. 1t now develops that while Car
ter was in Sacramento he acted as a
stool pigeon" for the police in the
redlight district of the city, while his
wife was a member of a concentration
camp. He claims she followed the life
against his wishes but il is said from
reliable sources that he insisted that
she lead il and that her reluctance TO
do so brought about the quarrel. dur
ing which she was shot three times.
Archibald Yell. former warden at Fol-
som. was named by the court to defend
Carter.
