fI3y Associa td Press.

cHTCAGO. Aug. 18.- Unguaiified damand for the death penalty >for Nashan F. Leopold. IT,, and Richard .T,Oeb. co-mnrderers of 14-year-old NoD" bert Franks, was made of Judge John R. Caverly today when the state, through Thomas Marshall, assistant state's attorney, began final arguments in the long legal battle.
 eff this case does not deserve punish ment by death, then no case Tn the history of Illinois has deserved that punishment" said Mir. Marshall.
 The arguments were reached aKter Beniamin Bachraeh, backed by his brother, Walter and Clarence 5. Dar, row, his associates in the defense, had finished pounding at the testimony given yesterday by Dr. William U; Krohn, fifth. aIienist and final reOuttaI witness for the state.
 The doctor, a veteran of 1S years of court experience, was buffeted by in- situations that frequently tried his temper, but he answered the attorneys with an elaborate courtesy that verged 50 closely on. the sarcastic as to pro" yoke smiles from those spectators who remembered Mondays hot exchanges between the doctor and attorneys.
 All attempts by the defense to win from the expert q modification of his counelusion Chat Leopold and Loeb are mentally sound failed. Neither would he acknowledge that his opportunities for observing them might have been inl- proved upon. The battle of wits closed with an hours recital of the courts record of Dr. Krohn, in which It was brought out that he had acted as an sexpert for three successive states at- torneys and had testified frequently Tn civil hearings in which mentality was involved.
 Only five-minute recess interVened between the closing of testimony ana the start of the arguments. MT. Dar- row lost an appeal to the court that the defense had the burden of proof in oiter- ing testimony in mitigation of punish ment and therefore should be allowed to start and finish the forensic effort. A short conference on procedure and seat ing arrangements followed and then Mr Marshall started.
 Arguments Long
 He indicated that he would consume the rest of the day and part of tUmor- row presenting legal aspects Joseph Savage, another assistant states at- tcrney, will follow and then will come Walter and Benjamin Baehrach and Clarence Darrow, for the defense. Each expects to. use about a full court day, but Robert D. Grove. states attorney,

AMERICAN PRAISES
 WORK OF LEAGUE
Economies Expert Says World Owes It Debt Of Gratitude

Geneva. Oct. 1T. - Following an extensive visit to the Ruhr. Berlin and Vienna, Harold G. Moulton. an American expert on economies and director Of the Institute of Eco monies at Washington, came on to Geneva and spent some time inyesti- gating the economic and financial mechanism of the League of Na- tlons.
 Mir. Moulton expressed the opinion later that the world owed a pro- found debt of gratitude to the league for the excellent work 1t has accomplished in connection with the economic reconstruction of Europe. He said that the numerous statistical and economic analyses made by the economic section of the secretariat have been of invaluable aid alike to independent students and to govern ments charged with the responsibil- ity of esfecting solution of post war economic problems.
 ''The Austrian and Hungarian re- construction plans" MT. Moulton declared, originated by the league and administered under league aus- pices, represent the first constructive efforts ta rehabilitate disordered European finances. Without the pioneer work of the league, the Dawes report on German repara- tions would not have been possible. Indeed the Dawes plan is closely modelled after the Austriap and Hungarian experiments. If the League of Nations had accomplished nothing else, its work in Austria and Hungary would have justified its existence many times over"
