GUILTY OF KILLING, IS GIVEN 22 YEARS Munding Is Convicted of Staying Mrs. Douglas
 in Illinois

Wheaton, H., April 1S.-George W. Munding, a riding master, today was found guilty by jury of the murder Of Mrs. Julia Abb Douglas, once his common Jaw wife. and his punishment was fixed at imprison-
 nent for 22 years in the penitcn- tiary.
 Munding was tried for the mur- der of Mrs. Julia Abb Douglass, pretty equestrienne of Hinsdale, a suburb. Judge Fulton instructed the jury that the law of Illinois recog- hizcs no such thing as a common law marriage.
 Mrs. Douglas was courted by many men.
 The defense. headed by Clarence s, Darrow, argued that Munding, if insane from love and jealousy, should go free, and that if the kill ing was unpremediatcd. drunkenness on the part of Munding was a good defense.
 The states attorney. Chauncey Reed, declared tho fact that Julia Douglas was uufaithful to Munding was no excuse as their previous re- Iations had been beyond the protcc- ton of the law of Illinois. When the urv had been out until late in the night Munding's sisters kissed him and departed on late train 10 attend the funeral of their mother at Toledo today.

New York, April IS. = Italy's readiness to make still further eco- homie sacrifices Ito continue to par ticipate with other nations in the arduous work of world reconstruc- tion," was pledged today by Giacomo De Martino, Italian am bassador 10 the United States, in prepared address before the Italian Chamber of Commerce of New York.
 Pointing out that the United States was Italy's leading source of im- ports but stood sixth among its for cign markets, the ambassador urged that efforts be made 10 reduce this divergence for the benefit of both countries.
 Has Made Great Strides
 Italy has achieved magnificent re- suits" he said, ''in the problem of economic reconstruction of the countries that took part in the great war" despite that "the obsta- cles that she had to overcome were more arduous and greater in Italy than elsewhere"
 No Competition Citing differences between the pro- duction of Italy and that of the United States, he expressed conf dence that there was a way to lessen the disparity in Italian-American trade. In view of the specializa- ton of American industry in mass production and tho existence in this country of "the highest standard of life of all countries" he asserted, italian production does not in any way represent destroying competi- ! tion." but offers lon the contrary, products of integration for the eco- | nomy and the consumption of the i United States"
 ] "A sufficient expansion of Italian , commerce in this country" he add cd, may not in any way constitute q loss for tho domestic American in- terests, and cannot but constitute a l real benefit for the people in general that can thus use and consume the prized products of Italian genius, art and skill"

 DIFFICULT JOURNEY
Big Game Hunter Says Their Route Is Hardest
 in World

Chicago, April 1S.--The route of the James Simpson Roosevelt ccn- traf Asiatic expedition for the Field Museum to the barren and noun tainous pamir plateaus Is probably the most difficult in the world, &C., cording to w. J. Morden, Chicago manufacturer and big game hunter, who has returned from a two-year hunting trip in the region.
 Morden did not get into the pamirs, the principal objective of the Roosevelt, but branched off into Baltistan and Western and Chinese Tibet. He bagge1 some of the tro- phies sought by the museum expid- itlon including Tibetan Gazelle: IbeX; Ovis Ammon, nearest species of sheep to the Ovis Poli, sought by the expedition; Markhor, Tibetan Antelope and others. He also took upwards of 60,oo0 feet of motion picture film of hh route and in- habitants.

SHIPPING BOARD
 SPLIT IS AIRED
DiVer8inS Opinions in Dollar
 Deal Given Ont
REPORT TO HIGH COURT
Commissioner Thompsons State ment Holds That Sale of Boats Without Getting Higher Price Was UnWarranted.

Washington, April lS.--The wide split in the shipping board over the sale of five President-type liners in the Orient trade to the Dollar in- terests was emphasized today when views of dissenting commissioners were submitted to the supreme court of the District of Columbia in the injunction case brought by the Pa ciflc Mail Steamship company.
 The views of those who opposed the sale set forth in affidavits by Commissioners Hummer and Thompson and arc in sharp contrast 10 the boards answer to the suit filed yesterday.
 In the affidavits presented today Mir. Thompson summarized his posi- ton as follows:
 Gives His Views
 q still hold the view that neither bid should have been accepted until negotiations had further been had with the bidders in accordance with the provisions of the advertisement, until further effort had been made to increase the price, to insure per manency of service, some provision provided for replacement Of vessels in the trade when present ships be- come obsolete, and any further needed requirements imposed by the merchant marine act, 1920"
 Commissioner Hummer contended that the board in awarding the sale did not take into consideration the purposes declared as a national pol icy in the merchant marine act and that no attempt was made to ascer' tain the foreign market price or ol the demand for such ships. He added ! that the "only justification for th' sale of these ships at less than thei ] fair market value is the securing fol ] the commerce of the United State! i of an adequate ocean service" |" anc that the maintenance provided fol in the merchant marine act 'is no secured by the proposition made" by the Dollar interests.
 Price Is Too Low.
 As to the figure of S1,500,000 which he said had been set for eact vessel as the basic price, Mir, Thomp son declared proceedings before th' board show that an evaluation com. mittee had originally appraised them at s2,500.00U. and that thii had been reduced s1.00O0O0 by Ed ward P. Farlee, then chairman o the board, over the objection of J | Harry Philbin. manager of the de 1 partment of ship sales. The resolu ton of the shipping board approving the valuation subsequently set, h' 1 added, makes no mention of this in 1 cidcnt. t'

Plan To Assemble At Tomb of Unknown Soldier to Voice Dis- approval of Cabinet.
In Meantime Herriot Con- sents to Stand for Presi- dent of Chamber-Pre- mier Drafting His State ment.
By fhe Associated Press.

By fhe Associated Press.
 Paris, April 1S.-It was announced this afternoon that the Association of French War Veterans was organ izing a demonstration for o'clock this evening at the tomb of the un- known soldier in protest against "the return of Caillaux to power"
 Herriot Agrees.
 Former Premier Herriot has con- scented to stand for the presidency of the chamber of deputies, a 100.- 000-franc job to which a white ele- phant attaches in the form of an ex- pensive mansion adjoining the chamber where the president lives and for the upkeep of which he must pay large share.
 NJ. Herriot preferred 10 travel and had expressed the desire to make an- other trip through Russia to de- termine the actual situation there, but the insistence Of his friends of the coalition overcame his obiec- tons.
 Cabinet Meets
 The new cabinet met this morn ing for its first real grapple with the details of the formidable tasks before 1t, the first of which is to reconcile Foreign Minister Briand's advocacy of the maintenance of a . French ambassador at the Vatican with the opposition to this course by the majority in the chamber of deputies and second to overcome the eventual opposition of the so- cialists to a financial policy that ex- cludes capital levy.
 Both of these important questions must be treated frankly in the min sterial declaration now being pre- pared by Premier Painleve and which will be read 10 the chamber and senate next Tuesday.
 The socialists have already warned the premier that the government s declaration must be clear and cate gorical on the financial question and that until 1t is forthcoming the socialist group will reserve its atti- tude towards the new government.
 Need Socialists Votes.
 The attitude of the moderate con srrvative group shows that the cab met would have great difficulty in finding a majority in the chamber If the socialists abandon it, even if 1t is decided to adopt conciliatory policy regarding the religious conflict. For nign minister Briand's intention is said by his friends to be to allow the senate and chamber to pass on all questions of q religious character without posing the question of con- fidencc.
 Discussing his policy after the cab met meeting, the finance minister VI. CaillauX, said:-
 q must not be expected to produce exceptional or extraordinary solu- tions. It must be remembered that it took me three months to evolve the, Income tax. (M. Cailaux was finance minister when the income tax was first put into effect in FranccO
 "I shall confine myself for the present to consideration of imme- diate and practical measures which must not be regarded as final solu- tions."
