Witness in Trial for
Murder.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. 9.-Mrs
Clara Phillips story of the purchase
of the hammer with which Mrs. Albert

Thursday by surprise witness in

Tie defendant testified that Mrs
Peggy Caffee, state witness, bought
the hammer the day before the slay-
ing, declaring she was goin TO use it
On her husband" Mrs. Caffee swore
that Mrs Phillips purchased the i'm
plement.
Thursday Mrs. A. W. Crandall took
the stand as rebuttal witness and
declared she was present in down
town store the day before the Staying
and saw Mrs. Phillips and Mrs. CAT
fee standing by counter where ham
mers were sold. Mrs. Phillips, ac-
cording to the witness, picked up a
hammer and asked the salesgirl if it
was the heaviest she had When told
it was, she asked, according to the wit
ness, DO you think this is heavy
enough to hit anyone in the head and
I'LL them?'
The witness SAID she dld not near
the reply to this but imm ediately after
ward saw Mrs. Phillips take the ham
mer and pay for it.
After leaving the store Mrs. Gran
dali said she saw Mrs. Phillips on the

naughty book
Mrs. Crandall said she read in a
newspaper that Mrs. Phillips had ac-
cused Mrs. Caffee of buying the ham
mer and that this made her ''indig-
nant" and she told neighbors of her
knowledge of the case.
As Mrs. Crandall left the stand and
passed the defendant. the latter said

LONDON WITHOUT NEWS

London, Nov. 9.-Iondon late
Thursday night still was without news
from ConstantinopIe but the cable
company whose lines have been cut in
the Turkish area held out hope that
communication might be restored Fri
day.
The government also appeared to
have had very little wireless commune
cation with Constantinople. The gov
ernment knows nothing concerning the
whereabouts of the deposed sultan ex-
cept that he has not taken refuge. as
has been reported, on a British war
ship.
Official circles point out that the
part Of that which arose from the
situation is almost an exact counter
part of that which arose from the
Chanak crisis with the important diff
ference as emphasized by Premier
Bonar Law Thursday night. that there
now is no question of isolated action
by the powers, who are working in
agreement.
Ismet Pasha, the foreign minister
Of the Turkish nationalist government,
is known to be in Constantinople wait
ing to 60 to the Near East conference
at Lausanne as soon as the date for
the meeting is settled. Although the
British government maintains the
opinion that the change of complex
ion of affairs necessitates a postpone
ment of the date, it hopes to meet by
November 20.

Harding Adninistra-
ton Has Made u. S.
Soulless, Says.
Republicans Beaten Be-
cause They Failed to
Interpret Sentiment.

Los Angeles, Nov. 9.-RepubIican
leaders "failed to correctly interpret
the sentiment and opinion of the coun-
try and their party Sustained one
of the most extraordinary political de-
feats in the history of the nation,
W. G. McAdoo, former secretary of
the treasury, said in statement made
late Thursday.
The statement said:
s'rhe republican party has sustained
one of the most extraordinary political
defeats in the history of the nation
The administration has given us a
wholly materialistic and soulless Amer
lea. It has been devoid of political
morality, as evidenced by its whole
hearted support of the seating of New
berry 1t has made no appeal to the
conscience and spiritual forces of the
nation.
Economy Policies Scored
This is serious enough, but its eco
nomic policies have been equally mis-
taken. The Fordney-McCumber tariff
bill is indefensible; the new income
tax law was discrimination against
the great body of taxpayers for the
benefit of the favored few. Its cal
lous disregard of the interests of the
farmer, the laboring man and of the
great mass of consumers was in glar-
ing contrast to its favoritism to the
trusts and powerful interests which
have dominated its policies and consist
emily controlled its action. Its hope
lessly and uninspiring theory of Ameri-
can isolation has caused grave injury
ar MT M
tional influence.
Widespread business depression has
resulted and our agricultural industry.

has been reduced to tragic state.
Pleads for Farmers
There can be no return of general
prosperity until the farm industry has
been rehabilitated This cannot be ac-
complished until the farmer is again
given access to foreign markets. where
he can sell his surplus at profit
To reach foreign markets a reasonable
tariff law must be adopted and ma
tional policy of international cooper
alton must be pursued. Granting of
great subsidies to favored interests
through tariff laws, railroad gratuities,
and ship subsidies, at the expense of
the people, must be st pped
Perhaps the new congress may be
able to force upon the administration
an intelligent comprehension of the
grave problems that confront the ma
ton and compel remedial and progress
sive legislation that will set us again
on the road to prosperity and world
influence.
The administration has been reac-
tlonary, narrow, provincial and unin-
spring from the outset. 1t has made
no appeal to the great moral and spirit
nal forces without which no nation can
endure. Defeat was therefore ipey-
