BIandOn Case Goes
To Jury Today

Richmond, Nov. 2.-That H Gordon
Blundon, former president of Com
monwealth National Bank, of Reed
vile, Va, not only robbed that insti-
tuition, but also set it on fire to cover
up his transactions, was the charge
made by counsel for the government
in arguing the case before Circuit
Judge c.. A. Woods, acting for Judge
D. Lawrence Groner, in the United
States District Court here yesterday.
This assertion came in the face of
testimony of Mrs. Susie Norris Blum
don, wife of the accused, that her hus-
band was in the house from sundOwn
Sunday until he went out to the fire
on Monday morning.
Both Major Paul NJ. Kear, United
States district attorney, and Lester
Parsons, assistant, contended that the
testimony in the case, which had been
in progress since last Monday week
ago. was sufficient, in their opinion, to
convince the jury that Blundon had
robbed the bank and that ne set fire to
the building to "cOver up his tracks. -
With argument by counsel for both
sides well under way. the case will
certainly go to the jury before cour;
adiourns this afternoon. Major Kear,
for the government and Judge
Thomas H. Wilcox, of Norfolk, of
counsel for the defense, completed
their argument yesterday, and MIR.
Parsons was interrupted at 4:9O
o'clock, the usual hour for adjourn
ment Mr.. Parsons will conclude this
morning and probably will be follow
ed by Hiram Smith or State Senator
Thomas Downing, for the accused, and
Gallon B. Jones, assistant United
States Niistfict iatt1rns% probably
will close.

Final Argument for COrpOr.
alton by Judge
w. L. Day
SUIT FOR $6,OOO,OOO
May Be Several Weeks Before Judge
[ Edmund Waddill Hands Down His
OpiniOn-Case In Progress Since
October %.

The suit for $6,OOO,OOO brought by
the Virginia Shipbuilding Corpora
tion against the United States Ship
ping Board and Emergency Fleet
Corporation, which was concluded
shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday af-
ternono, has been taken under ad-
visement by Judge Edmund Waddill.
Judge Waddill stated after the
case was finished that it probably
would be several weeks before he
would be able to give an opinion, as
the matter will require considerable
time. There is a mass of both docu-
mentary and oral testimony that no
will have to hold over in this case.
Closing arguments for the Nir.
ginia Shipbuilding Corporation were
made by Judge William l. Day, OF
Cleveland, Ohio; Senator Edgar T..
Bracket, of New York; and f. NJ.
Allison argued on behalf of the gov
ernment yesterday.
This case was begun October %
before Judge Waddill and has been
in progress every since with the ex>
ception Of last Saturday when court
took a recess.
. An able array of legal talent was
here for the trial.

London, Nov. David Lloyd
George, i'll with a cold and sore throat,
will be back campaigning by Satur-
day, his physician declared today.
The former premier was said to be
much improved.
Conservatives today predicted over
whelming victory at the general elec,
tions as tie result Of yesterdays
municipal elections. In eighty pro-
vincial boroughs the laborites lost l6S
seats and the conservatives gained
101.
Labor representative councils were
completely wiped out in many places
OF eight London districts which Ia
Dor formerly controlled five were lost
and majorities in three were reduced.
Parliamentary laborites, however
pointed out that in many cases muni-
cipal parties combined against labor
and on the basis that this will nos
occur in the general elections, claimed
to be undismayed.
Heavy lcal taxation and alarm oveE
labors capital levy policy were de-
clared responsible for complete reJec,,
tion Of the labor ticket in Fulham ana

Gives Baby Poison,
Then Trys Suicide
Washington Mother Fearing Pangs OF
Winter Seeks Death for Self
and Little Child.
(Ry United Press.)

Washington, Nov. 2-Fearing that
the coming winter would mean priya-
tion and suffering is believed TO have
caused Mrs. Hazel Gnash, rs years
old, to give her Is months baby bichlo-
ride of mercury tablets and then take
six tablets herself late yesterday in
Washington's most beautiful park.
The child ate the tablets when the
mother said they were candy.
Both the mother and the baby are
in critical conditions in hospitals here
but may recover, although one tablet
is usually fatal.
The mother is said to have brooded
over the memory of last winter-one
of hardship spent with her husband,
a civil engineer, near a quarry IN
Arizona.
A quantity of chocolate candy was
found near the place in the park where
a passing motorist discovered the
mother and the baby writhing in pain,
and it is believed Mrs. Gnash first gave
the baby a piece of candy and then
the poisonous tablets.
The mother now, deeply regrettne
her act is fighting for her life, and
praying for the recovery Of her child.
"Please take me to the hospital, I
want to live for my baby" she SAID
when found in the park. 81 have
taken six bichloride of mercury tab
lets and l gave two to the baby I
am sorry, now that did it."
