BRITISH PRESS IS
 PLEASED AT BUDGET
Opinion Expressed Is Generally
 Of Favorable Nature

kBy The Associated Press.
 London, April 30.--London news papers of all shades of political opin- ion generally concede today that the budget introduced in the house of commons yesterday by the chancellor of the eXchequer. Philip Snowdcn. is a very clever one, which will be dis tinctly popular throughout the coun- try.
 There s some adverse criticism, but the labor chancellor has every reason to be grntiiled at the reception of his first budgetary performance which, it is widely admitted, is so favorable to all interests that if the government called an election now it probably Y ould be returned in possess on of req power instead Of merely holding office through the sufferance Of the other parties.
 There is, however. no suggestion that tho government contemplates such a step, which seems all the less called for as the budget has won the golden opinion of the liberals, on whose favor the administration mainly depends for its continuance in office.
 Express Surprise
 The conservatives do not conceal their surprise at the chancellor's moderation, but they regard this as intended for propaganda purposes, to iisarm the suspicious of the anli-so- clalist party Of the community.
 "The chief fault with the budget -H- says the Times 'is its excessive op- timism. It was upon the assumption that his estimate Of fSss,ioo,000

revenue is correct that he made the
 unexpectedly liberal reductions in cer- tain kinds Of taxation, but should the estimate be unrcalIzed it is hard to sec how he can avoid a raid upon the sinking fund"
 Some of the critics are severe upon the repeal of the Mckenna duties and the governments attitude toward im- perial preference. These will be special subjects of attack in the budget de- bate by the conservatives, and some confidence is expressed that a com promise regarding the McKenna tariffs may be arranged before the budget is finally passed.
 The liberals, as champions of free trade. naturally wholly favor the abolition of the war duties but even the liberal Daily News thinks the three months grace given the motor and other trades affected is far too short to enable these industries 10 make the necessary adjustments to meet the changed conditions, and it advocates gradual extinction of the duties in three successive instalments.
 But all these questions of finance and protective tariffs are swamped, as regards the masses of the people, in the qualification at the cheapcning Of foods and drinks, especially the big reduction in the tea duty. In the north of England and in Scotland, even more than in the south, tea is consumed in prodigious quantities by inc workers at all hours and the cheapening Of the beverage together with the reductions on necessaries in other directions will win hearty enthusiasm for the gov ernment in thousands of working class homes.

JURY HAS CASE, SMITH DECLARES
Confident Of Verdict Say " Al And His
 Manager

NEW YORK, June 26.-"My case has been committed to the jury. l await the verdict, confident that it will not be an acquittal."
 This statement was made tonight by Gov. Alfred E. Smith and was con- cured in by his campaign manager, Franklin D. Roosevelt.
 The verdict when returned by the convention" Mir. Roosevelt added, will look toward four years in the White House in Washington"
 The governor was pleased with to- days developments. Both the events in the convention hall where he was placed in nomination by Mir. Roosevelt and elsewhere about the city where Smith workers went in furtherance of his candidacy was characterized as par ticularly pleasing.
 The governor did not hear himself nominated although there was a radio in the club he visited during the time MT. Roosevelt spoke in Convention Hall. He heard the roars from the demonstrators in the hall, but even that was not enough to keep him at- tentive throughout the hour and half that passed before order could be re- stored and the noise anieted.
 'I had read the speech and was too busy to listen to the9redio," Governor Smith said later explaining that the conference engagements he kept were of greater importance to him.

Roosevelt, In Presenting Smith, Says Nomina-
 tion Spells Victory

NEW YORK. June 6.-Governot. Alfred E. Smith, of New York was formally placed before the democratic national convention today for nomina- tion for the presidency of the United States. In course of the presentation of his name Franklin D. Roosevelt, himself nominated for the vice presi- dency four years ago at the San Fran. cisco convention and now serving as, campaign manager for Mir, Smith, said. the New York governor is the, most dangerous adversary that the republi- can party ever had to fear; his name spells victory.
 After a comprehensive recital of Governor Smiths record during the years he has served in public office, picturing him us the warrior "invin-; cible in defense of right and in attack on wrong," Mir. Roosevelt said the democracy of America ''wilf stand without fear and hesitation loyaily be- hind him" . .s
 Picture. the coming campaign" Mir. Roosevelt said. Imagine ringing through the halls of the nation this mans denunciation of the official cor ruption; of un-American isolation; of sordid tariffs for the benefit of the few3 attacking, as only he can, the republican onslaught on the reserve powers of the states. Imagine bis thrust and his genial sarcasm burning out the truth where all men can see 1t; the eloquencs of his simple cleancut oratory; the wave of understanding and belief in him which will follow his steps"
 Mir, Roosevelt told the convention it must be able to stand upon a clear cut plank against corruption in government" adding that our govern ment for our 20 years in public of flee has withstood the white light of publicity upon which it has pitilessly beaten and revealed, only 'spotiess in tegrity." .3.s.
 7 ''The country cries out in: conster- nation and contempt over the continued dissensions between the executive and legislative branches of the government during the last four years" Mir. Roose- welt continued. Under the complete lack of leadership in republican White House and a republican capital we have had all the checks but none of the balances, which, he said, "the con stitution in theory provided. .
 "Therefore we must give tosthe coun- try he said, "a president experienced in administration and capable of restor- ing team work and good will between the executive and the congress. These qualifications are rare, but l submit to you no experiment. This mans rec, ord is history it has brought the high est commendation from the citizens of this state, men and women, republican

 Residents of the neighborhOod com plained to the officers about 10 o'clock that the nonse made by he 150 negroes was objectionable. Officers were dis patched to the scene. When ordered by Officer Templin to leave, the Fisher negro protested and made a threatening gesture, it is said, causing Templin to retreat. Officer Duke, connected with the special police force of the Southern railway, went to the assistance of Of ficer Templin, it is said, and shot the negro through the chests killing him in stantly. In falling, knife is said to have dropped from the negro's hand.
