Renewed threats of Republican

Many De Valerites were seen in the

kept scattered by Free State police.

DAY HOLDING BACK
TRUTH Of TRAGEDY
PROSECUTOR SAYS
Counay Attorney Thinks
Judge Would Be Exoner-
ataed if He Tell All.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, April
7.-The shot that killed Lieut.. Col.
Paul Ward Beck was fired from the
back after, ''in my opinion, Judge
Day saw something that swept him
off his feet" County Attorney For
rest Hughes declared in a statement
to-day.
"In respect to that version, Judge
Day, in my opinion, has not told the
whole truth" Hughes said
Judge Day asserts he fired in self
defense. In my judgment, If the shot
was fred in self defense, it was in
defense of home and not Of honor.

Judge Day should tell the whole truth
no jury OF red blooded citizens would
ever render a verdict OF guilty against
him. However, l am equally candid
to say that so far Judge Day has not
told the whole truth.
whether Neck was shot from the
front or the back is one of the great
est questions involved in this case.
The X-ray would tend to indicate
Beck was not looking at Judge Day
when he was shot
Another important matter, think,
has been entirely overlooked is the
finding of a handkerchief in the
clinched hand OF Beck. What had he
been doing with this handkerchief i'm
mediately before the gun was dis
charged?
previous to the shooting, Day and
Beck had been very good friends.
What extraordinary oc u 7 r c C
changed the mental condition of one
toward the other?

shooting TO moan 'Oh, my honor?' -

Collisions between airpancs were
not unusual in the war, when hOcks
of machines were moving swiftly in
q comparatively circumscribed area
The meeting in midair of these two
aerial expresses, however almost in
conceivably travCrsing the very same
air channel out Of the virtually in
Vulnerable ones available, constitutes
one of the most remarkable happen
ingo in the history of aviation.
Only once before to-day's collision
has there been a fatal accident in this
service. This occurred in December,
1920, more than a year after the ser
vice was inauGurated, when a big
''air liner" just as it was leaving

Stree and crashed to the ground in
flames, killing the pilot his mecha-

DEMANDS CLOSING
OF MORRIS CANAL
Annual Crop Of Measures Ap-
pears i'm New Jersey
Legislature.

Special Dispatch TO THE New YORK HERALD
TRENTON. Feb. abandonment Of
the Morris Canal, built nearly 100 years
ago to connect the Delaware River with
the Hudson, was urged to-day by
speakers al a hearing before the Senate
and House committees on railroads and
canals. Two bills for abandonment are
pending, one by Senator Parry of Essex
and the other by Assemblyman Roenger
of Passaic.
The Roenger bill would create a com
mission composed of Judge William II.
Speer of Hudson, Frank II. Sommer OF
Newark and Louis A. Focht, engineer
for the State Board of Taxes, to nego-
tiate with the Lehigh Valley Railroad,
lessee of the Morris Canal. as to terms
OF abandonment. The question has been
before the Legislature repeatedly during
the last thirty years and always has
failed
The Parry bill provides for condemna-
tion OF the canal rights as a means OF
abandonment. The most valuable ad-
juncts of the canal are the so-called
Big and Little basins in Jersey City,
the latter forming the terminal of the
Lehigh Valley Railroad and having
value variously estimated from s7,500,-
900 to $4,000. 900.
Under the original cnarter the state
reserved the right to purchase the
canal property after appraisal in 1924
while in 1874 the entire property unless
previously acquired would revert to the
State.
Speakers for the Roenger bill included
George l.. Record of Jersey City; Moses
Plaut representing the Newark Cham
Der OF Commerce: John Milton. Corpora
ton Counsel for Jersey City: Joseph G.
Wholber. Assistant Corporation Counsel
Of Newark William w. Walters OF
Brennan county. Bertram F.. Mott.
Elmer King and Hudson Maxim. all OF
Morris county. Several favored both
bills.
Senator Parry spoke for his own bill
and opposed the Roenger measure as
dangerous method OF transferring leg
islative authority TO commission.
Carleton H. Godfrey or Atlantic City,
chairman OF the commission which
drafted an abandonment bill in 1915. sug-
gested the Roenger bill could be made
satisfactory by including a minimum
figure to be paid to the Iehigh Valley
in the event OF abandonment.

RAIL COMMITTEE
HEARS ENGINEERS
Discusses Labor Problems
Also With Representatives
of Firemen's Union.

7 Pending a decision by the conductors
and trainmen's brotherhoods as to their
action on proposals submitted to them
in their conferences OF last week with
the conference committee Of managers
of eastern railroads, representatives OF
the engineers and the firemens broth
erhoods discussed yesterday with the
committee their differences regarding
wages, working rules, etc. Most of the
session was confined to routine matters
and no statement as to what was ac-
complished was given out.
Warren s. Stone. head of the engineers
and William S. Carter, chief of the fire
mems group. appeared before the com
mittee as representatives of their re-
spective brotherhoods. The committee
was the same as that which heard last
weeks proposals of the conductors and
trainmen and consisted Of p. f. Grow
ley vice-president of the New York
Central, chairman Elisha Lee. vice
president of the Pennsylvania: c. w
Galloway, president of the Balti-
more and "Ohio; C. II. Ewing, vice.
president of the Philadelphia and Read
ing; c. l.. Bardo, general manager OF
the New Haven; S. Ennes. vice-presi-
dent of the Wheeling and Lake Erie
and John G. Walber. secretary of the
Bureau Of Information.
In last weeks meeting with the other
two groups. the committee heard the
workmen's proposals and made their
own suggestions. An adjournment was
taken to give both sides opportunity tc
think over proposals which had beer
made. 1t is understood that it is the
nf eli IN
possible without making necessary a
presentation of the difficulties encoun-
tered to the Railroad Labor Board. This
plan is in line with the suggestion made
few weeks ago by Herbert Hoover
Secretary of Commerce.
1t is expected that the conference witt
the representatives of the engineers and
the firemen's brotherhoods will require
q bout as much time as did the other
after which the representatives will re-
tire to consider suggestions made and
the conductors and the trainmen will
appear again to submit their decisions.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Feb. 20.-To a
protest of the Brotherhood of Railway
Clerks on the New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad that changes in
working conditions had been made effec-
tive WITHOUT Hlutual agreement, lle Tdii-
roads management replied to-day with
declaration that action was in accord
with decision of the United States
Railroad Labor Board.
The clerks had protested elimination
Of sick leave vacations, holidays and
Saturday half holidays, all with pay.
The railroad statement says that prior
to Federal control the rates of pay.
hours of service and working conditions
were fixed as the result of mutual un-
derstanding. Under this arrangement
clerks were paid on a weekly basis.
They were not paid extra for overtime.
except under unusual conditions or for
work performed on Sundays and holi-
days. Privileges were given in mutual
exchange for certain requirements as to
service from time to time.

STEEL STOCK SUBSCRIPTIONS.
3t.f32 Employees Buy 95,25s
Common shares.

According to preliminary estimates
given out yesterday. about S4,4S2 em-
ployees OF the United States Steel Cor
poration and its subsidiaries have sub
scribed TO e4,25s of the corporations
common stock under the partial pay
ment plan made operative yearly. Last
years total subscriptions were 255,325
shares by S1.722 employees. but the
number Of employees has been cut AL
most in half during the depression, and
wages have been materially reduced. It
is not expected. therefore. that the 1929
figures will be anything like those OF
1921.
The price paid by the employees in
1921 was Ss1 share and this year sS4.
The present market price is around Se2
n share. IT is expected that the final
figures for 1922 subscriptions will add
about per cent. 10 the preliminary
estimate given out yesterday
