Chicago, Sept. 9.-Last minute
preparations for the final scene in
the legal drama incidents to the
sentencing Of life Imprisonment or
to death of Richard Loeb and Ma
than F. Leopold Jr., for the kidnap-
ing and murder of Bobby Franks,
were under way today.
When court opens tomorrow morn
ing at $3.50 o'clock, Judge John r.
Caverly will mount the bench and
announce the verdict he reached
after 10 days of pondering over the
evidence brought out in the color
full trial of the youthful "super
men" and college youths who con-
fessed the crime.
Far away from the drone of the
courtroom, to which only attorneys
defendants and their relatives, bail
ifs and reporters will be admitted
will be the father and mother of
one of them-Mr. and Mrs. Albert
H. Loeb, on their summer estate
near Charlevoix, Michigan. They
will sit awaiting the tinkle of a
telephone bell which will tell them
whether their son shall forfeit his
life to hangman or to the walls
of Joliet penitentiary. They will be
absent from the courtroom because
their physician warned them tha,
to be present would be too great d
shock for them to bear.
Nathan F. Leopold Sr. and Forman
Leopold, brother of Nathan Jr.
will be in court to represent the
other defendants. They will be at
tended by Clarence Darrow and Ben
jamin and Walter Bacharach, de-
fense attorneys.
Members Of the prosecutors staff
who have been handling the case
with States Attorney Grove have
been at work combating any plans
the defense might spring.
While all the world turned te
await Judge Caverly's decision to-
morrow, the two slayers spent the
day in reading and playing athletic
games with other prisoners. They
seemed little disturbed or worried
and were looking forward to tomor'
row with hope.
"Tell Dickie, my boy, that we are
praying for him and hoping beyonC
hope that his life will be spared
twas the pathetic message, Mrs. AL.
bert Loeb gave Richards brother te
give "Dickie" last night.

Peking, Sept. 9.-(By the A. PD-
Although there is no appreciable
change in the war situation and the
main center of interest continues in
the zone Immediately west and north
Of Shanghai, it is becoming more APP
parent that the conflict cannot be re-
garded as local.
The central governments decree
establishing civil war and the verbal
advice of General Chang Tso-Lin, the
Manchurian dictator, to the foreign
consuls at Mukden that he feels COM
PEELED to prepare against two devel-
opments, in themselves not related
are taken here to indicate the proba-
bility Of the whole north becoming
implicated. The foreign legations
considered the situation serious
enough to reiterate their communica-
tions of week ago to the foreign Of
flee insisting on protection of for
eign interests and suggested the es-
tablishment of a neutral zone at
Woosung and Shanghai.
The opportunity afforded by the
general unrest is being improved by
radical elements, alleged to be
prompted by Moscow, to give for
eign imperialistic twist to events, in
order to arouse an anti-foreign agi-
tation.
A group of self-styled "the anti
imperialists league" composed of
students and few radical members
of parliament have circulated in
flammatory circulars which the press
has taken as the intention of profit
ing by the war to partition China.
Japan, this dispatch charges, will
dominate Manchuria and Great Bri-
tain, Douth China. The vi Shih
Pao, one of the leading Chinese pa
pers, discredits the whole story as
a piece of Bolshevik propaganda for
the consumption of the masses of
China. The newspaper expresses the
belief that China has nothing to fear
while the Washington treaty remains
operative.

NO STATE INCOME TAX

Florida, by popular vote, ratfies a constitutional
amendment 1orblddng any state income inheritance
taxes The federal government may do it likes, but
the state itself will not levy such taxes.
ne action is due partly to the unpopularity of the
federal income tax and partly to the desire of Florida
to attract outside capital 1t is perfectly legitimate
decson acquesced in not only by leading citizens and
newspapers but by the citizens generally, in
vote
An outside observer may wonder, though, how long
Florida will stick to this policy 1t is likely to last
forever Some time the Florida public may feel very
much like taxing the incomes of the rich settling
there.
Other states generally regard the income tax,
tnough nuisance in ways, nevertheless of
the farest forms of taxation yet discovered There
sound arguments too in behalf of the inheritance tax
now used in large number of states to supplement
the income tax.

GOLD FROM MERCURY

A German scientist IS credited with having
ceeded, not long ago. in realizing the old chemists
dream of making gold from baser metal He is said to
have got gold from mercury by means of a mercury
lamp But his exploit has set the world fire,
because he obtained only very minute quantity.
More recently Japanese scientist of high repute
named Prof Hantaro Nagaoka appears to have met
with greater in the same field. He explains
that he obtained gold from mercury by driving out
the hydrogen from the metal" He will not dWulge
the process He does say, however that although he
obtained much larger quantity of gold than the Ger
man did, '3this does not that gold be manu-
factured on commercial scale"
