COMpERS LEADS
GROUP SEEKING
2.75 PER CENT beer

Washington, April 21.-Another at
tempt to bring back ITS per cent. beer
by modification Of the Volstead act
was made today before the House Judi
ciary committee.
Samuel Gompers. president, and 9TH
er representatives of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, vigorously urged leg
islation that would permit once more
tho sale Of beer with this alcoholic
content on the ground that it would
give the workingman a good, palat-
able, nourishng drink" that had
warmth" to 1t.
Matthew T. VOL. president of Photo
Engravers International Union. and
also vice president of the labor fed
Grafton, declared the 18th amendment
did not attempt to define what drinks
were intoxicating and that Congress
lad the power to legalize the sale of a
2.75 per cent. beverage.
Members of his organization, Mr..
Woll asserted, are strongly in favor of
modification. He said the only OPPOSE
ton to resolutions of the Photo En-
gravers Union declaring it's stand on
the question came from reds, whom
he declared to be feeding" on the dis
order which had been brought about
through attempts to enforce the pro-
hibition laws.
The doctrine Of state rights, Mr..
VOL said. has been wiped out by this
fanataical idea that everybody might
be made good If the individual sis
no longer sovereign of himself and
his morals" he said, then the state
should handle our property and COM
munism will reign supreme"
James O'Connell, president Of the
metal trades department of the feder-
alton, declared prohibition enforcement
is the colossal joke of the age" and
is creating a total disregard of re-
spece for law that is appalling. Any
law that cannot be enforced by the
citizenship" he said. should be modi-
fed, especially when 1t is violated by
the wheel citizenship"
All of the labor spokesman asserted
they did not wish to see the return of
the saloon and sought only reasonable
modification.

TORTOISE SHELL
GLASSES new CLUE
IN BAUER KILLING

New York, April 21-With Harry
Hoffman a prisoner in the Richmond
County jail for another IS hours on a
charge of homicide in connection with
the murder of Mrs. Maud Bauer, po-
lice Investigating the case announced
today the finding of new clues which
they thought would have bearing On
their Enquiry.
Bekectives reported finding a pair
Of tswtoise shell glasses at the theatre
where Hoffman was employed as a
nlotlon picture operator. The muir
derer of Mrs. Bauer is known to have
worn such a pair of glasses and Hoff-
man also wore similar ones, the po-
lice declared. Shortly after the MUIR
der he was seen wearing nose glasses,
witnesses have said.
Photographic copies Of four letters
written by Hoffman from the jail to
his wife are in possession OF District
Attorney Each, it became known. He
intimated that he had received some
information Of value, from these let
tiers.
The grand jury today returned an
indictment against Hoffman charg-
ing attempted assault in the first de-
gree. The warrant was held in re-
serve by the district attorney for use
in case the magistrates court refused
his request for a 48 nour extension
OF homicide affidavit.
When arraigned on the homicide
charge, Hoffman was held until We'd
nesday upon the earnest request Of
District Attorney Each who told the
court he was convinced this man
Harry Hoffman is guilty Of the muir
der Of Mrs. Bauer"
Strenuous objections were made by
counsel for the accused man, but
were over ruled by Magistrate Will
liam Croke. District Attorney Each
said he expected the grand jury to
act before Wednesday, thus removing
the case from the jurisdiction Of the
magistrates court.
Raymond Parker, whose first state
ment in support of an alibi for Hoff-
man was later repudiated. was a wit
ness before the grand jury. When
taken into custody Saturday as a ma
t$rial witness Parker told the police
that Hoffman had been with him
from three until five o'clock on the
afternoon of the murder. Later. ac-
cerding to the police, he declared this
story was untrue and that 1t had
been suggested by Hoffman himself.
He gave the grand jury important in
formation today, it was said, and be-
cause of his willingness to aid the po-
lice his bail was reduced from $25, 900
to $4,000.
Another witness questioned was a
young married woman, whose name
was withheld and who charged that
she had been attacked by Hoffman
late in 1922 about a mile from the
point in Chelsea where Mrs. Bauer
WAS shot to death last month.
' Walter Bauer, husband Of the slain
woman. very pale and apparently
nervous, VS. a spectator in the court
room today. His only comment was
that he hoped the police had the right
man.

SELF-CoNFESSED GIRL BANDIT
ON way FROM FLORIDA WITH
HUSBAND TO FACE n. Y. CHARGES
Celia CoOney TO- Caught by Police in Jacksonvie-Re-
cent Birth of Her Child Led to Arrest Couple Long
Series of Hod-ups Charged Against Her Apparently
Little Concerned Over Fate
KEEPS UP SPIRITS

Jacksonville, Fla, April 21-Celia
Cooney, 20 years old, smiled a demure
goodbye as she boarded a train here
today for New York in custody of two
detectives to face charges there OF
highway robbery and assault with
intent to kill in, connection with a
long series of daring holdups credited
to "the bobbed- hair girl bandit"
Her husband, Edward Cooney, %,
also charged with the lroldups and
shooting, was visibly shaken as he
began the trip back to New York.
The party expected to arrive in
New York tomorrow afternoon at $50
o'clock.
The couple made no attempt to
fight extradition and Mrs. Cooney ex-
pressed extreme willingness to return
to New York.
Mrs. Cooney maintained the alter
nate air of calm Indifference and vi
vaciousness which she displayed from
the time of her arrest early this
morning. when she greeted the levell-
ed revolvers, of the police with n
smile and an automatic pistol.
81 won't shoot IL you WON'T she
offered when the police broke in the
door Of the room in which they were
staying, and a threatened gun fight
was averted.' She persuaded her hus-
band, she told the police, not to shoot
when the officers entered the room.
Cooney, who faced the police with a
revolver in each hand, wanted to kill
her and then commit suicide, rather
than be captured. Mrs. Cooney told
Detective +. S. Gray, of the New
York department. She made him pro-
mise not to open fire and to forget
the suicidefpact idea, Detective Gray
said she told him.
Mrs. Cooney, slender. brunette,
about five feet two inches tall, with
black eyes, wore her hair under n
net when she left today and it did
not have the appearance of being
bobbed. She told police her hair had
been blonde but that she had dyed it.
It was the birth and subsequent
death of their child that led to the
apprehension of the Cooneys. The
child, n girl, was. born here on April
II, and died eight days later. 1t was
born just ten days after the holdup
of the National Biscuit Company on
April 1, which Mrs. Cooney said was
her twentieth birthday.
The trail led through. thirteen
states. according to Detective Gray
and William G. Casey. of New York.
Upon arrival here last night, the de-
tectives said, with the aid of the
Jacksonville police they traced the
couple from one rooming house to
another without results. 1t was
through the undertaken who had
charge Of the funeral arrangements
for their child that their address was
obtained.
New York police said they obtained
the tip that the couple were in
Jacksonville through a message and
money that Cooney was to have sent
his mother. in New York. The money,
it was said. was used to pay bills.
Police said they were without funds
when arrested. They We're living here
under the name of Sheehan.

Harry K .Thaw is sane or lunatic
will be decided by a jury here to-
morrow, testimony in his trial and
the addresses of opposing counsel
having been virtually completed to-
day before Judge John Monaghan.
''Tll be free tomorrow was Thaw's
confident assertion to his counsel as
court adjourned.
Admission by two alienists, called
to the stand by counsel opposing his
release, that during Thaw's confine-
ment at the Pennsylvania Hospital
for Mental and Nervous Diseases he
had shown no indica tons of insanity
was taken by his lawyers as a
strong point in their clients favor,
although both alienists stated he was
suffering from moral insanity"
During today's proceedings Thaw
evidenced active interest, making
numerous remarks to his attorney.
Former Judge John NJ. Patterson.
chief counsel for Thaw. in his ad-
dress to the jury, attacked the oppo-

DR.. Charles w. Burr, a specialist
in mental and nervous troubles of

the first witness. In answer to ques-
tons by Arthur G.. Dickson, counsel
for the trustees of the Thaw estate.

morally insane" and incapable of
administering his affairs if released.
DR.. Burr added that he thought
Thaw would get into conflict with
the law on account of some abnor-
NAL act" If given freedom.
