RICHARD GR|LLED
. SEVERAL HOURS
Her Mother Says Charges Are
False, but Street Wait
Sticks to Story.

NEW YORK. Jan. 2e.-For more
than three hours last night Alice Ruck.
the fifteen-year-old girl Of the streets
and tenements, who brought charges
Of immortality against TEX" Richard,
the sports promoter. sat In the witness
chair In West Side court. One-third of
that time she was repeating those
charges under the Interrogation of
Ferdinand Pecora, the assistant dis
trict attorney. who is prosecuting the
case. For the remainder of the period
she underwent a gently voiced but ex-
tremely searching cross-examination by
Max Steuer, Richards lawyer.
Just after Alice had taken the wit
ness stand her mother, Mrs. Mary
Ruck. burst into the courtroom, ex-
tended her arms toward the magistrate
and exclaimed:
Your honor. please. My little girl
has been influenced! She never had
anything to do with Mr.. Richard! Why.

Magistrate Simpson gently. you will
be heard later. We will be glad to
listen to everything you may have to
say. Bat your turn is not yet"
The mother was led away.
The net result of the whole exami-
nation was this: The little girl, who
still seems very childlike, was brought
to admit that whenever a lie served
the purposes Of her life better than the
truth she did not hesitate to lie. Some
of her lies, she confessed, were in
spired by lurid movies she had seen on
Second avenue.
She had not hesitated, she said, to
tear her clothing as false evidence that
she had been attacked-by some other
man than Rickard-within the last two

taking of poison.
But in spite of these admissions she
still insisted that her story Of having

FOOD IMPORTING.

AYERS DR.. BALL
Tells Farmers Action Is Neces-

Unless Uncle Sans dollar gets
back to prewar buying power SO
that the supply and demand for
foodstuffs In the United States can
be equalized. America will be es'
sentially q food-importing nation
within from fifteen to thirty years,
DR.. E. D. Ball, director of scientific
work in the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, told the ma
tional agricultural conference today.
Aggressive Action Needed.
Aggressive action must be taken by
the whole American people at once or
foreign markets will have to be relied
upon II the millions OF Americans
want to eat, DIR. Ball said.
Those who believe the nations farm
ing depression Is due largely to over
production and no market demand. re.
ceived a staggering blow from the
speaker.
The fact is there is no over-pro-
duction" he said. What the world
Is suffering from IL under-consump-
ton. There is not enough food in the
world at present to provide for normal
consumption. The nation Is rapidly
coming to q condition in which the
food balance Is going to be definitely
against US unless 1t Is made one OF
the major problems for national con-
sideration."
Discuss U. 8. Policies.
DR.. Ball was the first speaker to-
day on q lengthy program given over
to discussion Of national policies for
land utilization. agricultural research
and the need Of conservation Of
forests.
Americas retention of its power
and influence among the nations of
the world. depends largely on how It
meets and remedies the agricultural
situation. according to DR.. Ball.
1T il largely for the farmers Of this
nation to determine whether this
shall be the nation Of progress and
achievement because national progress
in the future must rest even more
squarely back on the food producing
power than II has in the past" he
said. "The critical period in which a
determination must be made Is close
at hand.
"If this nation wants to go on
increasing in power and influence az
she has In the century past. she
must weigh every factor in the prob
lem of permanent development. She
must weld them together into a con
structive program of national. unity
and take steps to put them into imme
date operation"
