FRAUD TRIAL
Court Admits Private
Records of Treasurer
in Spite of Protest.
State Charges l. oan 81
M a d e to FictitiousI
Bank by Governor.

Waukegan, ILL.,, May 15.-(By The
Associated Press. )-The state won the
opening skirmish Monday in the trial
of Governor Len Small, charged with
conspiracy to embezZle state funds,
when Judge Claire G. Edwards ruled,
over the objections of the defense, that
private records kept during the term
of Fred e. Sterling, former state
treasurer, could be admitted in evi-
dence.
G. c. LeForge, chief of counsel for
the governor, fought to bar the record
book, a ticker; or daily cash balance
sheet. from evidence, and challenged
the right of Harry c. Luehrs, assistant
state treasurer and witness for the
state. to testify as to items appearing
in it.
Loans Total $4,000, 900, Claim
Through the "tickler' Edward Pree,
assistant states attorney of Sangamon
county. told the court the state will
seek to show that the Grant Park
bank, which it is alleged the governor
and Mr.. Sterling loaned at various
times sums totalling S29,ooo;;0oO, was
synonymous with safe fund" carried
on the treasurers books. The state
alleges that the Grant Park bank did
not really exist.
Mr. Pree brought out in questioning
Mr.. Luehrs that when draft was
drawn on the treasurer's office payable
to the Grant Park bank, the so-called
"safe fund.- was increased a CORE
spending amount, and when the draft
was repaid to the treasury. the safe
fund" decreased in the same sum. All
other state funds. carried on the books
under the title of vault fund" were
loaned to some go other banks in the
state, the witness said.
Says Bank Fictitiuos
Mr.. Luehrs testified that interest
statements were mailed to these other
banks each month with a request for
remittance, but that so far as be
knew, no such statements ever were
sent TO Grant Park bank.
Our purpose" Mr.. Pree said is
to show that the safe account and the
Grant Park bank are synonymous.
That every dollar that went out of
the state treasurer's office. and listed
as SO much money In the safe account.
went directly to these conspirators
through so-called fictitious Grant
Park bank and that whenever that
money was returned to the state of
Illinois. it did not come through tie
guise Of this bank. but was deposited

is hauled from state to state, they
ought to put big sign with the words:
Here's that CRATER we caught out Of

Representative Byrns, Tennessee,
ranking democrat of the appropria-
tons committee, said the money should
be voted forthwith, adding. however,
that the bureau of investigation had
been given $2,OOO,OOO and that ''there
was no excuse for the situation in
which the department finds itself to-
day."
Thinks Dawes Tardy
In view of the attorney generals
statement that the United States stood
to recover 1892 100000, Mr.. Byrns in
sisted that Director Dawes of the
budget bureau should have come to
congress long ago to demand funds
with which to get it, since ''the attor-
ney general had not made the request
until the other day."

HARDING TAKES UP
BONUS BILL AFTER
WEEKEND VACATION
President Hears SmOOt's Plan
for Paid Up Insurance as
Cash Substitute.

Washington, May 15.-President
Harding, back in Washington, after
q weekend trip to New Jersey, plunged
into consideration of the soldiers bo-
nus measure and early In the day had
a lengthy conference with Senator
Smoot of Utah. republican member Of
the senate finance committee.
Senator Smoot laid before the presi-
dent his plan for issuance of paid-up
insurance as substitute for the GER
tificate feature of the bonus bill as
passed by the house and informally
approved by the finance committee ma
jority. The Utah senator also pre-
sented to Mr.. Harding an alternative
plan for cash payment of the bonus,
the funds to be raised by sales tax.
The senator on leaving the White
House declined to say whether the
president, who plans soon to send his
views in written form to finance COM
mittee republicans, expressed his views
on the proposals as outlined.
Senator Smoot said he would offer
his insurance plan as a substitute for
the certificate proposal and then if it
failed, he would propose regular
cash bonus, to be raised by the i'm
position of q sales tax.

FOREIGN SILVER
REACHES HIGHEST
FIGURE Of YEAR
Quoted at II Is an Ounce; /;
Will Boost Mining in West,
New York Thinks.

New York. May 15.-Foreign bar
silver reached new high record for
the year Monday, being quoted at 72hs
cents an ounce. The previous high
mark was 701s cents last Saturday.
Continuation of the increase, accord
ing to local bullion dealers, undoubt-
edly will result in a resumption of sill
YER mining operations in the United
States and Mexico. Low grade copper
mines also would be likely to extend
their operations if the higher bar sill
yer rate should hold.
Increased prices for foreign bar sill
yer are accounted for by the heavier
demand for the product being made by
the Chinese and Indian markets. India
not only has been importing large guam
titles of silver. but also has resumed
impOrtations of gold in order to bal
ance it's accounts in Europe and the
United States.

QUEEN DELAYS
CORONATION To
VISIT AMERICA
Rumania Ruler Coming
to Express Apprecia-
.tion for Assistance.
Trip Long Delayed by
Affairs at Home and
Cost of the Journey.

Bucharest. May 15.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press)-Queen Marie of Ru-
mania may forego her coronation this
fall. in order to visit the United States.
Since the signing of the armistice, the
queen has been planning to go to the
United States, but pressing affairs in
her own country and the expenses Of
the long land and ocean journey have
deferred her. Now invitations from
friends and petitions from women's s
clubs and civic societies are pouring in
to resist them.
Sure of Welcome
While the queen has not received an
official invitation from President
Harding. it is known that the Amer
ican government would welcome and
entertain her The Rumanian govern
ment. however. would prefer that the
queen receive an invitation from the
White House in order that there may
be no mistake regarding her status.
Marie has not yet set any date for her
departure, but her friends are urging
her to postpone her coronation with
King Ferdinand, which is set to take
place in Transylvania, and start for
New York if she has fulfilled few
European court engagements.
The queen Monday made II clear to
The Associated Press that if she went
to the United States it would be with
the object of seeing the country and
thank in person the thousands of Amer
leans who helped Rumania so generous
ly during and after the war. She said
it was absurd to say she would engage
in any motion picture enterprise.
Princess Weds for Love
The queen discussed the forthcoming
marriage of her second daughter, Prin-
cess Marie. to King Alexander of Jugo
Slavia She said she was confident
this would be a step in the direction
of unity and peace in the Balkans"
But" Marie added. "it is mistake
and unfair to say it is a political mar
riage. You know, even among kings
and princesses there is such a thing as
love at first sight That is what hap
pened in this case. The young king
had never met my daughter until he
came to Bucharest last June. When
he saw her he held out both hands
and said. L need you; my country needs
you. VIII you come and help us?' That
simple, frank plea won her heart"

II. S. DECLINES BID TO HAGU1
Washington Saves
Daylight Without
Retarding Clock

Washington, May i5.-WashIng-
ton tried out tho plan OF saving
daylight by getting up and going to
work an hour earlier without ad-
vanclng the clock and found that,
contrary to general predictions, 1t
worked pretty well.
There was some confusion, but
not on the scale that was feared IN
some quarters, after President
Harding's request order went out to
executive departments to start work
at 8 instead of 8 O'Clock. Some
persons missed suburban trains
which ran an hour earlier and many
were undecided whether to eat lunch
at II or IL o'clock. Some children
objected to being hurried off to
school at 8 o'clock and Representa-
tive Free, republican, California,
the father of two sets of twins, In.
troduced a bill In the house to make
a misdemeanor for the board Of
education or other authorities to
make children under Ia years Of age
attend school in the District of
Columbia before 8 o'clock eastern
standard time.
President Harding and members
of the cabinet followed the new
schedule, but congress, apparently
still fearful of the wrath Of the
farmers as shown VIXEN q nation
wide daylight saving act was passed
several years ago, would have moth
ing to do with the idea and the
supreme court decided to uphold the
precedent of meeting at high noon,
as established when that august
tribunal first convened more than a
century and quarter ago.
