Walter Ward, Millionaire
Bakers Son, Must Go to
Trial on Charge Of MUIR
Mother Of Victim, a
Young Marine, Appeals
to Governor AL Smith.
BY ROBERT T. SMALL.

Copyright. by the San Antonio Light
New York, Sept. THE question
"can a rich man shoot poor man to
death in New York and not be tried
for it," has been answered in the ne
gative.
Next wick Walter S. Ward. million
aire son of George S. Ward. president
of the nationally known Ward Bak-
ing company, goes to trial for the kill
ing of Clarence Peters. formerly a
marine, on the night of May 10. 1922
A million dollar defense fund is
back Of the hayward young man
whose own story Of the shooting shows
him to have had many evil associates
along the thoroughfares of the greater
city where the lights burn both white
and red.
Wards own contention is that he
killed Peters in self-defense.
He said he was being made the vic
tim of blackmail plot.
The courts have decided he must
tell that story to jury of his peers.
Every legal subterfuge has been re-
sorted to in the effort to keep young
Ward out of court where the sOrdid
story of his life and of his companion
ships now must come to the surface.
Some of the story has been told
in the sanctity of the grand jury
room.
The minutes then were so incredible
and shocking that much of mystery
remains to be revealed before the jury.
This is all the more true in view
of an announcement by the state
prosecutors today that they have much
additional testimony against Ward
which was not presented to the grand
Jury.
Youth Now in Jail.
Ward. indolent. willful. scattering
the money an indulgent father lavished
upon him like the proverbial pre-Vol-
stead sailor, languishes now in the
Westchester Jail.
He has been spending some OF his
time making wooden mouse traps to
catch a couple of dimunitive rodents
who have been nibbling at the cooks
flour bags.
This is the first and only evidence
of the bakers instinct. so strong in
the father. have descended in any man
ner to the son.
On two occasions. it has seemed
that as the result of the cleverncss
and smartness of the moves of his
counsel--a dozen or more lawyers al

This Prediction Made By
Senator Marconi
FIND NEW SYSTEM
Italian inventor Has Solved
Problem High Wireless
Costs, He Says

London, July 2-ICorrespondence
OF The Associated Press l-Anothei
great step in the development Of
has been rssIized. says Senatoi
Marconi, who has returned TO Lon
don after q two months experiment
al cruise In his yacht Electra. A
system has been evolved by the ltal
ian inventor whereby wireless mes
sages are transmitted with mini
mum of electrical power, and at
very low cost.
I'VE have transmitted messages
up to a distance Or 2,25e miles, not
only with a very much smaller am :
cunt OF power and energy. but faster
and more cheaply than with the or
dinary system Of long distance
wireless" said Senator Marconi.
When the new system Is adopted il
will mean that a power station Tor
long distance work can be erected
at much less cost than at present.
l have telegraphed on this system
rom Cape Verde Islands, or the AT.
Iican coast, to London. To send
messages clearly and more rapidly
over those $500 miles took less
power than message from London
10 I dTlS Dy Inc OEUluol uCShSNSs
Utilization Of Waves
Senator Marconi explained that
these advantages were gained by ths
utilization of waves that have not
before been used. Given the neces-
sary mechanical element, he said,
messages could be sent clearly sew.
en- times faster than at the present
rate, and that the public and the
newspapers would ultimately have
the benefit of much cheaper COM
mercial charges. His opinion Is that
wireless Is only in its infancy, and
that the future has in store greater
marvels than have been revealed In
the past.
Commenting on recent expert
ments conducted by American in
ventors looking to privacy In wire
less telephone conversation, Sena-
tor Marconi said he was afraid such
an achievement was still far on. II
do not say that wireless telegraphy
will ever be an absolutely private
means of transmission, but will
say that In the future 1t will be pos
sible to make 1t much more difficult
for anyone to get messages not in
tended for them"
Senator Marconi proposes to go
on another experimental trip In a
few weeks time, and later to try the
new system of long distance wire
less from the coast of the United
States to Europe.
