jects than the merchant marine bill will
await the annual message TO be forward
ed upon the convening OF congress in
regular session, December 4.

message had before him a large amount
of data supplied by Chairman Lasker, all
of it showing the present situation with

of permanent policy. Mr.. Lasker is ex-
pected to have several conferences with
the president during the writing Of the
message.

braith, formerly private secretary to
John p. Perrine, founder and president
of the Valparaiso Development COM
pany, who died shortly after his indict-
ment and few weeks before the con-
Germ was placed in the hands of a re-
ceiver, had not been completed when
federal court adjourned last night. Mrs.
Galbraith had been on the stand all day
in the trial Of four officials of the or
ganization, charged with having used the
mails to defraud.
Cross examination of Mrs. Galbraith,
a witness for the prosecution, started
after she had identified numerous official
records of the development company,
which composed much of the documen-
tary evidence introduced Tuesday by
the government. and explained the inner
workings of the concern. Much Of yes
terday's session also was devoted to the
reading to the jury of advertising mat
ter said to have been circulated through
out the country by the company.

under indictment on the same charge,
has been granted a severance and will
be tried separately.
The development company, after pur-
chasing a large tract of land on the gulf
coast of Okaloosa county, set out to
build the town of Valparaiso and to
carry out plans for cooperative farming
on a large scale. Persons throughout
the country purchased town lots with
the understanding that they were to re
ceive half of the profits from a 10-aCre
tract of sugar cane to be cultivated by
the company, and it was provided that
their earnings could be applied toward
the purchase price of the town property.
Promises made by the company through
the mail were impossible of fulfllment,
the government charges.
Three newspaper publishers today
poined the corps of witnesses from all
parts of the country.
f. G. Scale, editor of the GRANVILLE,
(nl) Mercury, and F. L. Penn, editor
of the Monticello (Ga.) News were sum
moned by the government as result of
advertising matter the development
company had carried in their newspa-
pers. NJ. j. Menzel, formerly Of Chicago
and Omaha and now publisher of the

the defense.
