 County Attorney Ross started the opening argument for the state at 2:4O o'clock and addressed the jury for an hour and one-half w. G. Gilmore fol- lowed for the defense, and Ross closed for the state
 Both attorneys reviewed the testi- mony m detail and each questioned the credibility of practically every witness for the other side.
 Witness Breaks Down.
 Mrs. Hoover stood in a corner in the rear of the courtroom while Ross made the opening argument. Ross, referring to her testimony. said: She did come here before you and pose as an angel; but every word she spoke was the truth except when her womanhCod was assailed. And then shes evaded the questions or refused to answer. And I think every man on this jury must have respected her for fighting for her honor, instead of braZenly admitting the charges hurled at her regarding her relations with Osborne" As Ross spoke, Mrs. Hoov- CT broke into tears, unnoticed by all but a few near her in the courtroom, and sobbed quietly for several min- utes. It was the first emotion she had displayed during the several times she had been in the courtroom during the trial.
 Attorney Gilmore, reviewing the evidence, contended that it had prov en without a doubt that Bennett's life was in danger, that he had every req son to believe that Osborne was reaching for gun with which to kill him, and that Bennett, with no other way out of the room but the door m wtich Osborne was standing, shot only in the belief that he must shoot Osborne or be killed by him.
 Arguments are Forceful. The arguments of both attorneys were forceful and complete and het inc rapt attention of more than hundred spectators, some of whom stood throughout the afternoon and evening in the aisles.
 County Attorney Ross conducted the entire case for the state, examining all witnesses and making both the opening and closing arguments. The states examination of jurors at the opening of the trial was conducted by Assistant COutny Attorney Walter Roche. Both were assisted materially in preparing the case by Deputy County Attorney D. P. Boyle. Bf Boyle and Roche were at Ross side throughout the trial.
 w. G. Gilmore handled Bennett's defense during the trial without , assistance of other counsel.

WOULD UNRAVEL. PRESENT MUSCLE. TANCLE
Chairman k a h n Suggests Congress Appoint Body to
 Adjust Difficulties

WASHINGTON, March 4-Propos- al that congress create Muscle Shoals commission" to adjust legal difficulties involved in the disposition of the governments war built prop critics in Alabama and to direct sale or lease of the projects to private in- teersts, was made today by Chairman Kahn of the house military affairs cupport of minority members of the committee, which has pending before 1t the three offers for the properties received by the govrnment.
 Representative Fields, Kentucky, ranking minority committeeman, de- clared, with respect to the Kahn pro- posal, that congress itself would have to decided upon a plan to develop Muscle Shoals, and it was not a ques- tion to be solved by any group of cabinet officers as representatives of the executive branch of the govern ment.
 In announcing his proposal for the commission in the form of q state ment, Chairman Kahn took pains to have it understood that he spoke only for himself, acting as an individual, rather than as committee chairman. He said he believed, after three weeks careful investigation of the or fers made by Henry Ford, the Ala bama Power ompany, and Frederick E. Engstrum of Wilmington, N C., for the completion, operation, lease and purchase of the Shoals projects, that the suggested commission offered the logical and probably only practi- cal way of reaching proper decision on the question
 Fields explained also that he had expressed his attitude on the commIs- sion suggested in personal way and not as member of the military body.
 ''l would be unwilling" he said, "to delegate that power to any group of cabinet officers. The farmers of the country have long been looking to Muscle Shoals for the solution of their fertilizer problem. They are looking to congress for that relief now ana congress should assume the respon- sibility by deciding the question for itself.''
 The commission would be conl- posed of representatives of the war, treasury and agricultural depart ments, under Kahns scheme, and be empowered to straighten out govern ment tangles as to existing contracts, and enter into either a sale or a lea- of construction arrangement TOT the future development of Muscle Shoals.

NEW YORK, Mar A. Alfred E.

score of other products.
 When they charge us with ship ping alcohol on fraudulent permits, they don't know what they are talk ing about. They're all mixed up. To prove it, we recently laid out a bunch of liquor permits on the table and asked prohibition officials to pick out the fraudulent ones. They chose sev- eral, which, on a previous occasion. they had declared were genuine-and vice versa. It seems they have no way of determining whether an aIco- hol permit is good or bad"

Continued from Page One) court. announced that he would not receive any verdict that might be reached during the night until 10 o'clock this morning.
 The last day of the trial seemed to hold more of interest for the spec tators who crowded the courtroom than any previous day. And, when final arguments were started, every seat was taken, the aisles were jammeH and the crowd that had gath cred to hear the final testimony over flowed into the corridors in the rear of the room. Not since the Wootton trial had such crowd gathered to hear the wind-up of criminal case at Tombstone. And the finish was as full of sensational testimony, unusual incidents and tense moments as the most ardent trial fan could have wished for.
 Women Are Witnesses
 In contrast with the testimony dur ing the first few days of the trial as to smuggled whiskey, gun-play and bad actors" the prosecution. in charge Of County Attorney John F. Ross. swung its case down the home stretch yesterday by calling as wit nesses ten prominent business men of Benson, and leaders in the church and social activities of that town. The defense last witness was also woman. And it was in an attempt to discredit her testimony that the ten other women were summoned as witnesses by the prosecution.
 Yesterdays developments confirm ed the prediction made at the begin ming of the Bennett trial that it would eventually wind up with woman against woman.
 Throughout the trial, the prosecu- tions most damaging testimony was given by woman, hardly more than an overgrown girl-Ruth Hoover Osborne's companion. who charged that Bennett had shot and killed Red" Osborne, knowing that he was not armed.
 And the defense chief witness, out side of Bennett, was a woman-Mrs. w. l.. Sawyer, manager of the Man sion Hotel at Benson.
 Mrs. Sawyer testified to statements she said had been made to her by Mrs. Hoover after the shooting: and' these alleged statements, testified to by Mrs. Sawyer, corroborated the story told by Bennett.
 Reputation Assailed
 Mrs. Hoover branded Mrs. Sawyer's testimony as false; Mrs. Sawyer said Mrs. Hoover's stStements and testi- mony were widely divergent.
 It was then that the ten Benson women were called to the stand, and all but one of them testified that Mrs. Sawyer's reputation as to honesty and truthfulness was either bad" or mot very good" In his final argu- ment, w. G. Gilmore, for the defense referred to them as the purity squad while Ross, in his closing ar gument for the state, asked the jury if the Benson women's testimony

 His statement was occasioned by the announcements that Prohibition Commissioner Haynes Crder revoklng industrial alcohol permits of the Fleischmann Company had been sus- pended by Internal Revenue Commis- sioner Blair, and that seizure of all cohol in possession of the company and its II agencies would be held up.
 We shall continue to manufacture alcohol said Kaltenbach, although we shall respect the governments or ders by not shipping any of it until Tuesday"
 Concerning charges that several hundred thousands of gallons of alec hol had been diverted to non-med- icinal uses" by the Flcischmann Company, he said:
