Verdict, FollowlHh W Hours Deli
Iteration, Closes Sensational
Murder Case

Such was the verdict in the case
Of The state Of New Mexico vs.. Mrs.
Miami X. Case, charged with killing
her husband, Ray Harlan Case, with
a shotgun at their apartments on
Manhattan avenue in this city the
afternoon Of February q.
The jury brought the verdict
about midnight, following a delibera.
ton Of an hour and a half.
The announcement Of the verdict
was greeted with cheers and BY a
demonstration rarely witnessed be-
fore in the county court house in
this city. A good sized audience re-
manned after the arguments BY eoun-
sci to await the verdict and those
who stood around the court house
corridors predicted that the Jury
would return verdict within half
to two hours.
Mrs. Maud r. Case, the defendant,
who had told one Of the most re-
markable stories ever heard of do
nestle infelicity as the result Of liv
ing with an alleged insane man, a
story that remained almost mistaken
during hours Of a gruelling cross-ex-
amination--almost collapsed with
joy as the verdict was announced.
Recovering herself, she shook hands
with every one of the dozen jurors

China Endorses Jewish
Homeland i'm Palestine
Specifies That Rights of Other
Races There Shall Be
Respected

The Zionist Organization of America
announced yesterday that the Chinese
government had added its Endorsement
with that of other Allied nations to
Great Britain's plan for the establish
ment of Jewish homeland in Palcs-
tine. A cablegram telling of China's
action was received at the Zionist head
president, and N. f. B. Ezra, secretary
of the Shanghai Zionist Association.
In its Endorsement the Chinese gov
eminent specifies that it's approval
of the homeland plan is given with
the understanding that nothing shall
be done which may prejudice the civil
and religious rights of existing non
Jewish communities in Palestine.
AS one of the first steps in the cs-
tablishment of the homeland, Greas
Britain is gradually turning over to
Jews the task of policing the cities of
Palestine where the Jewish population
predominates. For this purpose thou
sands of Jewish soldiers are now being
withdrawn from other countries and
mobilized, ready for assignment to
Palestine.
This Jewish military police force
will be sent to Jerusalem and Jaffa
first. Later they will be assigned to
cities in Syria and Arabia The po-
lice force at present totals close to
one hundred thousand men, at least
half of whom have been drawn from
the American army.
1t is the intention of Great Britain,
so far as her own soldiers are con-
cerned, to call on the Jews who vol
unteered their services first. Twenty
thousand Jewish DICTIONARIES. who have
been recruited in Great Britain America
and even in Argentina, are now ready
for service, and they undoubtedly will
be the first to be dispatched to Pales-
