To ORGANIZE COUNTY
LEAGUE IN WASHINGTON
Local school and Civic Organizations
TO Be Brought More Closely
Together.

An advanced move will shortly be
made by the Cooperative Education
Association Of Virginia. when a
county organization will be formed in
Washington County by the various
leagues Secretary Montgomery will
he in Washington next Monday for
purpose of helping along the organiza-
ton.
Heretofore the eight hundred
school and civic leagues In the State
have been separate and distinct, hav-
Ing connection only with the State as
ISOLATION. 1t has been decided. how
ever, that work would be advanced in
each county by cooperation between
the various leagues and the expert
ment will be tried In Washington.
The election of officers and the forma-
ton of committees will be the first
step.
Gradually other counties will be or
ganized until in every county in the
State there Is county organization
working with the State association on
the one hand and the local leagues
on the other.
Secretary Montgomery, of the State
association, leaves today for two
weeks trip in the interest of the as
sociation's work. He will attend the

BECKER WILL Be
GIVEN FINAL CHANCE
Consider His Plea for salvation
From Chair.
DECLARES WILL NOT souEAI
His Attorneys Say He VIII Make No
Offer TO Swap Police Graft Infor-
nation for His Life--Victim Of
Circumstances.

New York. June 2I.--Martin T,
Manton, counsel for Charles Becker,
will communicate with Governor
Whitman tomorrow In order TO learn
what form of hearing the Governor
will require in considering Becker's
appeal for clemency. Mr.. Manton ex-
poets to talk with William Orr, the
Governors secretary, tomorrow morn :.
ing, and will ask Mr.. Orr to Obtain
the Governors views as soon as pos
sible.
Becker's counsel are convinced,
after reading the interview with Gov
ernor Whitman, gave out in Albany
on Sunday night after returning from
the West. that the Governor will give
the condemned man final chance to
plead his case in person. They do
not understand, necessarily, that the
Governor has q public hearing in
mind. and 1t is that point they want
settled within the next day or two.
1t was denied positively by the
Becker counsel today that their client
has written an appeal for clemency
based on graft revelations implicat-
ing present or former officials of the
Police Department. Mr. Manton and
Mr.. Johnston assert that Becker has
never mentioned to them the name of
from the gamblers and Illegal re-
sort proprietors Their personal opin-
ion is that Becker has no such reve-
lations to trade for his life, even II
the Governor would be willing to
make terms. In other words, using
the familiar term for confessions of
the sort, they do not think that
Becker can 'squeal," even in the last
extremity, because he has no infor-
nation to offer.
Lawyers give out that. SO far as
they now know. Becker will make
the usual straightout appeal for
mercy TO the only man who can save
him from death in the electric chair.
They believe that Becker will de-
clare TO the last that he had no part
in the murder of Herman Rosenthal,
and that he became the victim OF a
most unfortunate set of circum-
stances, and was made the natural
scapegoat of every gambler and evil
doer who were in peril OF punishment
for the murder.
81 can say with the utmost sim
certify. that we. Mr. Manton and my.
self, believe that Becker is entirely
innocent of the murder" said Mr.
Johnston today.
