taw, superintendent or prisons and
brother-in-law Of the late President

expressed by Union leaders today that
the threatened strike of the $4,000

voted yesterday to oppose the call for

Washington, D. c.. Without dis
cussion or a record vote, the senate
today accepted an amendment to the
naval bill requesting President Cool
idge to call another arms conference.
The amendment, offered by Senator
King, Democrat of Utah, was accepted
without objection by Chairman Hale
Of the naval committee in charge of
the bill.
1t has been Indicated recently in
administration quarters that President
Coolidge did not consider the time
ripe for such conference, and admin
istration senator's had been expected to
oppose the King amendment as un-
timely.
They made no immediate explana-
ton of their failure to do so, nor was
any light thrown on the development
from the White House or state de-
partment. u

and Miss Jean.
Attorney Ruetz in Vain Plea for Mitigation Tells Court
That Rubenstein, Hams and Lipkowsi Are
Responsible for Selling Thomas Moon.

Twenty years at hard labor in the
state prison at Waupun, was the sent
ence handed out to Edward "Chippy'
Thomas for the manslaughter Of Coro-
ner Truman T. Parker and his daugh-
ter, Miss Jean Parker on September
Id, 1924, by Judge Belden of the cir

This morning Thomas was getting
ready to leave his quarters in the
county Jail where cell has been his
home for four months, for the longer
period and discipline of prison life.
Mother Breaks Under Strain.
A cry rent the court room late on
Tuesday when Judge Belden said "ten
years in state prison" The cry did
not come from the defendant who
stood braced for the blow, fearless
and stolid, but from the woman sit
ting in the front row of the audience
Edward Thomas mother.
Again cry came from the heart
of that mother, as the judge said for
second time, "ten years in state
prison" The one sentence was for
the killing of Truman Parker, the
second for the killing Of Jean. The
sentences we're accumulative,s making
twenty years.
That other mother, the mother ot
lovely Jean Parker, and the widow
Of Jeans father, was not present IN
the court room.
Hear Testimony In Court.
Testimony was given in the case
during the afternoon after Thomas
had entered the plea of guilty to the
two charges Of manslaughter, in order
that the Judge might know the full
facts before pronouncing sentence.

Schmitz and his son Leroy, both OF
whom were waiting for a street car
with Mr.. Parker and his daughter or
the evening of September IA, the tes-
timony Of Richard Baxter, Carl Otto
and Charles Irving, occupants Of the
car, the entire events of that day
and evening were laid before the
court to consider.
