RUBBER RELEASE
NOT|CEFORECAST
Colonial Secretary Amery De-
fendS Stevenson Scheme
Before House..
Bv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, March tS.-Colonial Sec
retary Amery stated in the House of
Commons today that he was closely
watching the rubber situation and
hoped To be able to make a public
notification, possibly in about a fort
night regarding the release of crud"
rubber under the Stevenson restriction
scheme.
His declaration was made in answer
to question regarding the intentions
of the colonial office in the matter.
Eric Miller. former chairman OF the
British Rubber Growers Association
and a member OF. the committee which
formulated the Stevenson plan told
the guests at an American CHAMBER
IF Commerce luncheon today that he
considered Secretary Hoover'S efforts
to arouse the interest of Americans
In the importance of the rubbef IN
dustry entirely proper.
lie differed With Mr. Hoover only
over details. such AS the attention
which the Secretary gave 10 the spec
ulative phase Of the industry.
"It is amazing. he said. that the
United States, which consumes two
thirds Of the worlds rubber produc-
rton. is represented hy only 2i2 per
cent Of the capital invested in the in
duStrv. This fact alone shows what
faith and confidence the Americans
must have had in the British meth
cNiS.'
He reiterated the British conten-
tion that the Stevenson plan benefted
every user of rubber in the world. as
it saved the plantation from ruin
Many gross exaggerations had been
made in the United states regarding
the rubber situation. ne said. denying
that the members of the British com
mittee. which visited the United States
in 1929 had pledged unlimited supplies
Of rubber al prices ranging from ID to
is pence $50 to Sc cents pound.
The speaker declared there was no
violation of the law of supply and de-
mand when the power Of securing
the supply of a product was put into
the hands of the buyers alone. This
ne maintained was the case with the
Stevenson plan. with its system of
rising and falling releases of the
product The buyers function under
the. scheme he said. was to maintain
standard prices in order to keep the
releases in operation.

FAIRLY GOOD" GEORGIA
PEACH CROP FORECAST
Enough Blooms Escaped Cold. 1t Is
Believed, to Assure Harvesting
of Fair Quantity.

In spite of record low temperatures
so late in the season in the peach belt
of Georgia and North Carolina, the
Department of Agriculture declared
today that those sections may still
produce a fairly good crop TINS
year The important fact is SAID TO
he that enough blooms probably es-
capped damage to permit the harvest
ing of a fair crop.
Reports to the department. II was
announced, indicate that 40 to 40 per
cent of the peach blossoms were kllled
in Georgia. where in most sections
the trees were in full bloom. In
North Carolina, it was said, the buds
had only begun to swell and many
growers report confidence that enough
escaped to insure good crop. The
greatest damage occurred in central
and western Georgia. The total
damage will be offset, in the depart
ment's opinion, by the fact that
| .OOO. 900 new trees come into bearing
this year.
The Weather Bureau reported that
temperatures in many parts OF the
peach belt early in the week were the
lowest of record for so late in the
season.

Takes Verdict In
Big Damage Suit

BISBEE-A jury of the superior
court at Tombstone this week de-
liberated but ten minutes before
returning a verdict in favor of D.
A. Adams, prominent Cochise coun-
ty cattleman and chairman of the
board Of supervisors, defendant in
a $4,000 damage suit brought by
Charles McGill, pioneer resident of
the county
McGill asked for damages as the
result of alleged injuries to his feet
sustained while engaged with three
other men in working in the bottom
of a well located on the Adams
ranch, IL miles east of Benson, in
the fall of 1924. The alleged in
juries to McGill occurred in a cave
in of the well while the workmen
were sinking deeper for the pur-
pose of strengthening the water
supply during the dry season of the
year.
John Wilson Ross, Bisbee attor-
ney, representing the prosecution,
pleaded that his client was entitled
to damages under the provisions
of the Workmen's compensation act.
He said McGill was injured while
in the regular performance of his
duty and the employer consequent
ly was liable for damages.
The Defense represented by w. G.
Gilmore, Douglas attorney, contend
ed that the injury to McGill was the
result of his own negligence and
they introduced testimony by wit
nesses in which they attempted to
show that McGill had been warned
of the approaching cavein by the
other three workmen and that he
failed to move out of danger in
time to avoid the avalanche of dirt.
McGiII was the only one of the four
men, in the well at the time, who
was injured, the prosecution de-
cIared.
McGill has resided in the county
for many years and has spent most
OF his time in Tombstone.

3 Murder Cases On
flagstaff Docket

FLAGSTAFF With three MUIR
der cases on the docket. spring
term of superior court, which it is
believed by Judge J. E. Jones will
convene on June II, promises to
furnish plenty Of entertainment.
Defendants in these three cases
are: Harry (Indian) Miller, who
shot and killed Elmer Cundif at
Canyon Lodge q few weeks ago
Sloan Burgen, colored, who shot
and killed Joe Cans, a fellow en-
ploye, also cOlOred, Of the Flag
staff Lumber company, early this
spring, and Granville " Johnson,
accused of killing his wife with a
hatchet near Williams on May 2.
Harry BIilIer's bulwark will be
seIf-defense. Burgen likely viii
seek comfort in the unwritten law.
Johnson probably viii plead not
guilty.
Johnson has steadily maintained
innocence ever since his arrest. He
is disinclined to talk at all. Not
that he seems surly, but he isn't
sociably inclined and the death Of
his wife seems to be the last thing
he cares to discuss. Strong efforts
have been made by Sheriff John
Parsons and County Attorney Har-
rison to get him to confess. The
most effective of these in demon
strating Johnson's attitude was
when he was confronted by his
dead wife's father and her little
son by a former marriage. John
son refused to look at either of
them. The father, j. w. Meyers Of
Los Angeles pleaded with Johnson.
For Gods sake, man" he said to
Johnson, SAY something; either
that you did or didn't kill Hazel.
Say something"
But Johnson steadily looked the
other way and refused to say a
word.
