LOS ANGELES, Jan. g. Harry New, on trial here. charged with the murder of his fiancee, Freda Lesser, was described as "a cOld-blooded mur- derer" and the death penalty demand ed, today, for him by Asa Reyes, depu- ty district attorney.

 Referring to the assertion of the de- fense that New acted like an insane man in driving from Topango canyon, where the death of Miss Lesser oc- cured, to central police station here, with her body in an automobile, Reyes said, News act was that of a man of common sense.
 If New had buried the body or thrown it into the brush" he demand ed, wouldn't search have been made? :? Wouldn't the authorities have de manded an accounting from Harry New as the man with whom Miss Lesser was last seen. alive?"

Pinchot Writes to Palmer Regarding Decision In
 s. P. Grant.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S. Protest against the decision of Attorney Gen. eral Palmer on December in turning over 160,000 acres of oil lands in Cali fornia, estimated to be worth $500, 0,000,- 900, to the Southern Pacific company, without an appeal from the adverse judgment of a lower court, was made today by Clifford Pihchot, president of the National Conservation association, in a letter to the attorney general.
 MT. Pinchot contended that the vic tory of the government against the railroad last November in the Elk Hills case presaged an equally sue cessful adjudication of the second case if an appeal had been taken to the supreme court.
 The grants to the Southern Pacific specifically excluded lands containing oil, MT. Pinchot declared. Further more, he claimed, 1S,000 acres of the tract were within the petroleum re- serves set aside for the protection of the navy against possible exhaustion of commercial supplies, which Secre- tary Daniels had declared were essen tial to the future security of the navy and might turn the tide of war"

SAYS SETTLEMENT
 SETTLED NOTHING

WASHINGTON, Jan 9-Charges that arrests of federal trade commits sion employees, made in the recent de partment of justice campaign against reds" have been the result of frame ups designed to build the theory that the commission is a hotbed of Bol- s1evisln" were made today by w. B. Colver of that body before the senate agricultural committee. Colver left the intimation that the larger Chi cago packing concerns had cOnnived in some degree to attain that result, and involved Ludwig c. A. K. Mar tens, self-styled "ambassador" for the Russian Soviet government, and s. Nuorteva, Martens secretary, in his account of instances to prove the point.
 Colver likewise voiced a vigorous demand for legislation to regulate the industry, need of which was proved, he said, by the recent agreement be- tween the packers and the depart ment of justice in settlement of nti- trust proceedings.
 The first instance the commission CT said. of the frame-up, had resulted in the arrest of Rafael Mallen, a for mer clerk for the trade commission, in raids directed last week at Chi cago by the department of justice. H. J. c. Claybaugh, head of the secret service at Chicago. and his assist ant "a man named Barry" Colver said. both of whom have since resign ed, were responsible and Barry now was special agent" for Swift & Company, Mallen later was released.
 Johann Ohsol, another employe of the commission, Colver said, was ar rested in Washington this week, while on visit to s. Nuorteva. having been pointed out to police officers as Mar tens, who is being sought by the sec ret service
 Reverting to the agreement pre- pared by Attorney General Palmer in concluding the Sherman law prosecu- tions against the packers Colver said that merely settled the Sherman law phase of the matter"
 Separation of the packers from their grocery holdings. however. as in the case of the transfer by Wilson & Company of it's grocery business to Austin Nichols company of New York. wholesale grocer" he assert ed, merely means that the stock holders of Wilson and company have added the Nicholl company to their holdings"

 GREAT HOARDER Congressman calls for An American Budget System
 for Government.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-The estinRce1 requirements of the United States government, not including anything for the railroad administration for the next fiscal year, were placed at $5,- 250,O00,0 ,000 by Congressman w. Good Of Iowa, chairman of the house com mittee on appropriations. He made the statement tonight for the Illinois Manufacturers'' association in an ad- dress advocating budget system.
 The sum, he said, represented a per capita tax of SAT, and to collect even much smaller sum the hand of the tax gatherer would fall heavily on many people. He charged many gov ernment department heads with eX- traVagance and deplOred the lack ot real business acumen" in others.
 Wants American Plan
 No press bureau budget plau, nor the British budget system will ans wer," he said, flor the need of an American budget code" The taxpay- CTS were becoming more insistent for government fiscal efficiency.
 Congressman Good said that ap- parently the United States govern ment was the only great business concern not run along business lines.
 With one bTeath," said the speak CT, the secretary of labor asks for St4,5O0,000 to lestablish employment agencies throughout the country to help our unemployed find jobs, while in another he voices his approval of the plan of the commissioner of inn migration to bring into the United States 100000 laborers from Porto Rico and Mexico to supply labor shortage.
 "On the same day that the attor- ney general is seen starting great crusade against buying beyond the actual necessaries for immediate needs, we see the secretary of agri- culture advising and urging the state highway commissions to buy all kinds of material and machinery for road construction and store it for future use.

COAL OPERATORS MAY TURN DOWN
 COMMISSION
Prefer Impartial Tribunal Rep resenting Public To
 Wilson Board.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9-The policy of the bituminous coal operators in the> settlement of the coal strike is- sues and the attitude to be assumed toward the commission of three, ap- pointed by President Wilson to in vestigate wages and prices, was con- sidered today at meeting here of the wage scale committee of the cen tral competitive field, preliminary to the opening Monday of the commis- sion's hearings.
 It was learned that refusal to. ac- cept the commission as now consti- tuted was advocated by some of the operators. Most of the operators agreed that a declaration of their stand should be made before the work of the commission gets under way.
 That this declaration would be either flat refusal to deal with the present commission, or a statement of the operators willingness to CO., operate with reservations" appear ed probable tonight. In opposing the commission as organized, with one representative for each the miners, operators and public, some of the operators argued that an impartial tribunal, all of the members of which would represent the public, would be more satisfactory.

NEWARK, N. J., Jan. 9.-Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer has writ ten to the 12 Democratic assembly men-elect of New Jersey requesting their influence to obtain ratification of the federal woman suffrage amend ment at the January session of the state legislature.

 FALSE HOLDING
 OF STATE LAND
House Bill No. co., Changing Leasing System, Is Put
 Into Effect.

PHOENIX, Jan. 9.-An important change in the administration of leas- ed lands of the state came into ef- feet today through the signing of an order by Samuel L. Pattee, judge of the superior court making house bill number 50 a law.
 The law revises the state land code of Arizona and abolishes the long re- cognized but unsatisfactory system of dummy tenantry" which stock men were believed to be using in or der to rent lands in the state domain in the proportions that their interests required.
 By the dummy method cattleman would lease one section of land from the state, that amount being the limit per individual, and then he would ob- tain the use of probably 10 sections more by having his various employees rent state land for his use. Under the new law one may lease as much as he can administer efficiently and the state authorities will be in posi- tion to know just how the land is being used.
 The new law is expected to save the state $15,000 year on admin istration expenses. The 10000 leases now on the state books will be re- duced to about 1900, state land of ficials said.
 The bill also empowers the land de partment to lease lands for 20 year periods instead of the present five year periods, but the department proposes to stick to the present five year custom.

 WAR SUPPLIES
Capitalists Invest Huge Sums Without Hope of
 Return.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-A story of how American capitalists spent vast sums without expectation of return or profit to aid the government in it's it's efforts to supply explosives for the war, was told today to members of the house committee on expenditures in the war department. Incidentally. it developed that the same men had put at the service of their country valuable secrets, learned from the Germans, for the extraction of nitro gen from the air. The committee met to open an investieation into the ex- penditure of sS40OO,O0O for two nitrate plants at Mussel Shoals, Ala.
 Frank S. Washburn, president of the American Cyanamid company, which built ones of the plants at Mussel Shoals, informed the committee that the company had made no profit on over s89 900 900 worth of war work it had done for the government. The plant cost the government $62. 900 900, had produced 1900 tons of ammonium nitrate when the armistice was signed and then ceased operations.
 "The American Cyanamid company did not want any profit out of it's war work. As a matter of fact, it had none. Government officials in sisted that we be paid fee of $1.500,- 900. When we receive this fee we must pay S5 per cent of it as taxa tion."
 "There has been general belief that the American Cyanamid company made large profit; so tell the facts"
