CONVICTION in CASE
LIKE WARDS REVERSED
Court Upholds Stern's Self
Defense Plea in Killing.

William Stern, a 1ewelry salesman,
who was convicted of manslaughter In
the first degree before Judge Talley in
General Sessions in June, 1921, and
sentenced to from ten to twenty years
in prison. yesterday won new trial
when the Appellate Division of the
Supreme Court unanimously reversed
the Judgment. Stern. who Is 81 years
old. anG lives at 212 West 11lth street,
was tried on charge of having shot
and killed Paul Boittano in October,
1920. at 10S West Thirty-ninth street.
He admitted the shooting. but declared
II mad been in self-defense after
holdup. In this respect the case bears
a striking similarity to Walter ;.
Wards story Of how he killed Clarence
Peters.
Stern's confession of the offense and
the inability OF the prosecution to pro-
duce eye witnesses to the killing were
points raised in the opinion of the
higher court, the latter according to
Justice Bowling, who wrote the opinion,
being the real issue in the case" He
added that Judge Talley's charge to
the Jury may have left the impression
that a defendant raising the issue or
self-defense should not only show the
ground of his defense but prove 1t.
The court holds the burden OF proof Is
still upon the prosecution.

DRY LAW ATTACKED
AT BROOKLYN RALLY
Audience Gradually Warns
Up to Asking for Repeal
of Volstead Act.
LUKE STAPLETON SPEAKS
SAYS Idaho and Arizona Sena-
tors Should Not Regulate
New York.

Prohibition was attacked last night at
the first mass meeting of the newly
former Brooklyn branch of the Asso-
citation Against the Prohibition Amend
ment at the Academy of Music. The
crowd was not so large as expected, and
only two OF the several rows of chairs
that had been reserved on the stage for
prominent guests were occupied. but
the orchestra. the balcony and the gal
lery were fairly we'll filled.
The audience was slow to warm up
to the spirit OF the meeting. although
the speakers received the customary
applause at the close of their talks, but
enthusiasm gradually was developed. so
that when a resolution urging modifi-
cation OF the Volstead law to permit
the manufacture and sale of light wines
and beer was offered it was passed
with cheers.
Luke d. Stapleton. former Justice OF
the Supreme Court. presided. and was
the first speaker He said:
"Ie is hardly fair that two Senators
from Arizona or Idaho should have a
say so in the regulation of the habits
and tastes of the millions of people in
New York"
Col r. H., Gillett, who was with the
l06th Infantry in France, cited instances
of prohibition enforcement upstate in
which honest and lava bding citizens
had been shot. abused and subjected to
indignities by armed prohibition agents
who he referred to as "our employees.
who receive their wages from the in
come taxes which we pay" He severely
criticized the practice of searching
without due process of law
b. Edgar Chisolm of the Association
for the Improvement of the Condition
of the Poor declared that prohibition in
its present form is a detriment to the
country and step backward. He said
it had thrown obstacles in the path of
the citizen and the wage Garner, such
as unemployment, disrespect for law,
huge taxes, class feeling. abuse OF
power, graft, criminal acts and business
stagnation. The people would revolt
against such law were 1t not for their
sense Of humor. he said, and added;
Amy law requiring In peace time
armed men and gunboats to enforce It
Is disgraceful and dangerous one :
Other speakers were Morris w. Corey,
vice-president of the New York State
division of the association; DIR. Edward

Replies From Alumni Favorable.

Since last Saturday the seven Harvard
graduates who have constituted them
selves q committee to bring pressure to
bear upon President Lowell OF Harvard
to force him to rescind the order that no
negroes may live in the freshman dor
mitories at Cambridge. have received
sixty replies to letters sent TO other
alumni. All but four or five of these
letters uphold this committee, which
contends that Harvard has resorted to
Jim Crow tactics to discourage the
negro from attending and placate the
whites who decline 40 occupy the same
dormitories and eat in the same mess
halls with the blacks.
It was declared that the committee
began mailing It's letters to the alumni
lust one week ago and that II hopes to
have 500 signatures 10 the memorial II
will present to DIR. Lowell at the next
meeting of the Harvard corporation.
The intention Is to have the petitioners
represent the older graduates for the
most part, and It will be clearly stated
that this protest has nothing to do with
the recent agitation. concerning Jewish
matriculation.
Only two Of the Harvard overseers
could be located in Now York city yes
terday and neither OF them would talk
about the matter. Fese-al Judge Julian

We are all familiar with the an
cient fable of the wolf wherein
boy numerous times cried wolf when
there were no wolves and frightened
his family, but when the wolves
really came his cry went unheard and
all were devoured.
The cotton bulls have for many
years cried cotton scarcity when
there was no scarcity and now that a
real cotton scarcity confronts the cot
ton world people laugh and few be-
lievc.
More than six months ago when
cotton was far lower than today we
predicted 80 cent cotton and we have
done everything in our power to get
the Southern mills to buy their sup
piles Of cotton.
We are glad to know that South
ern mills have bought more cotton
than ever before in their history and
some of those who secured their sup
ply around 81 cents very kindly admit
that the figures given by the Southern
Textile Bulletin greatly influenced
them and we believe that Southern
mills are hundreds Of thousands Of
dollars ahead OF the game because Of
the information we published.
The mills OF England and New Eng
land have not yet purchased the bulk
of their cotton and for once the South
ern mills have beat them in buying
cotton and are in position to underbid
them in export trade. .
The statistical situation as we see
it makes 30 cents cotton surety and
much higher figures are probable If
the following figures are as correct as
we believe them to be.
The National Ginners now give the
indicated crop for 1922 as 9,400,00C

be nearer correct

We have raised one crop of 1862

boil wceyil into Georgia and the Caro-
linas. In spite of several years Of
35 cent and 40 cent cotton we have
raised only one 100000 bale crop

We may raise crop of 13,500,000
bales next year but every cold wind
next March and April and every rainy

the cotton world and furnish ammuni-
tion for the bulls.

reduce the 1923 crop to 10,000,000
bales which is, Of course, possible, a
large portion OF the worlds spindles
would have to stand idle and there
is no man who can figure otherwise.
Because cotton has advanced from
20 cents to 26 cents those who failed
to buy at the lower figure hesitate tc
buy now.

will not buy their supply at 20 cents
