DENY INSANITY
 IS PLEA PLANNED
Leopold's Family Scouts Report
 After AlieniSt'S Visit

Chicago. June 3 Rl-Relatives of Nathan Leopold. Jr. maintained to- day that there was no significance in the visit of Dr. Bernard Glueck. New York psychiatrist, with the youth in whose defense he testified when Leo- pold and Richard Loeb were on trial for the murder of Bobby Franks.
 The alienist talked with Leopold for half an hour yesterday in the warden's office at Stateville prison. When he left the prison accompanied by two of Leopold's brothers who motored out with him. the alienist denied that his visit had any connec- ton with the rumor that he had been retained as medical counsel by the Leopold family. pending a pos sible petition for an insanity hearing.
 There is absolutely nothing to that report Dr. Glueck said AS former criminologist at Sing Sing all prisons and prison management. I was in Chicago attending a meet ing so I availed myself of this op- portunity 10 see the prison and have q visit with Leopold. l made no mental observations.
 Earlier. in a conversation with Deputy Warden Frank l.. kness, Dr. Glueck was understood to have ex- pressed the opinion that Leopold seemed to be in better spirits than when he had last seen him, at the time of the trial.
 Leopold's father who gave up his own visiting day privilege that the New York doctor might have the visit, said that the meeting had no significance and that Dr. Glueck was there rather as an observer of the entire prison than of his son.
 Attorney Benjamin Bachrack. at- torney for the Leopold family had the same explanation.
 ''Dr Glueck has been interested in the case.' Attorney Bachrack said, "as piece of laboratory experi- ment. He wants to see how his pre- dictions are working out. He has just returned from abroad and want ed to check up on some of his con- clusions.'
 Colleagues of Dr. Glueck's recalled that the psychiatrist is to speak at Cincinnati before the American Psy- association on the subject. Nathan Leopold" YeSeP- days visit these doctors suggested. was to get additional material for the paper.
 Much of Glueck's interview with Leopold was concerned with dis cussion of Leopold's studies.

WIFE OF MEXICO'S
 PRESIDENT PASSES
Heart Attack Fatal Following !. Major Operation

Mexico City. June 3 R-Presi- dent Gales, i'll himself with a se- were cold. was making arrange ments today for his wife's body to be brought to Mexico City from Los Angeles, California. where she died yesterday. The foreign office has announced that the Mexican government will observe 30 days mourning.
 The chief executive. whose stern character usually does not give out ward evidence of emotion, was grief stricken when the news reached him that Senora Gales had succumbed. He remained in seclu- sion through the evening and night at Chapultepec palace, a place that has seen much sorrow and tragedy for the rulers of Mexico. The ill., fated Emperor Maximilian lived a: the same palace, and long before. it was the scene Of the downfall of the last grim chief of the Aztec emperors
 For days the president had wor- ried over his wife's condition and throughout yesterday he remained in his personal headquarters await ing hourly bulletins from her bed side. He cancelled all engagements. among them farewell visit of James F. Sheffield the American ambassador. before his departure for a vacation in the United States.
 Senora Gales was brought up in the Catholic faith. and friends Of the president said today she un- doubtedly would be buried with Catholic rites. They pointed out there was nothing inconsistent in this as the president in connection with the religious laws has insisted he was not making fight against Catholicism or any other religion that obeyed the Mexican constitu- tion.
 Sonora Gales. who before her marriage was Natalia Chacon, member of a prominent Sonora family, had been in i'll health for many years, and for that reason had very raEely appeared in Mexico City society. Since girlhood she suf- fered from asthma; of recent years from the internal disorders that resulted in death. Friends say that about five years ago she went to Rochester. Minnesota. where she was patient of the Mayo broth- CTS.
 She was about 46 years of age and the mother of II children.

 As preparations were hastened ,o convey the body of Sonora Gales into the southern republic late to- day, attention was turned to Mex ico City. where the president, sui fering from the effects of severe cold, was overcome with emotion on receiving news of the death.
 Accompanying the body will be three daughters and two sons-in- law of the first lady who were a, her bedside when death came Definite funeral plans were with held pending further word from President Gales and it was not known whether burial would be on the Gales estate in Sonora or in Mexico City.

Corruption Found
The court found that the interest
and influence Of Fall as we'll as his
official action was corruptly secured
by Doheny for the making Of the
contracts and leases.
Fall, the court said, had stated
that in conducting the leasing nego-
tiations he would act himself, and
that the Doheny company acted upon
belief that Fall controlled the sit
uation. The opinion reviewed in dc.
tail the secret negotiations, and stat
ed that the facts leading up to the
leases showed that the Doheny com.
pany had preferential treatment. 1t
was well established, the court found.
that the contracts and leases were
made without competition. Further
more, the opinion continued, the
leasing act Of 1929, under which the
leases and contracts were made, did
not authorize the Wholesale removal
Of the oil from the ground, but was
intended only to aid in the conscrva-
ton of the oil in the ground as a re-
serve and granted the secretary of
the navy full discretion in the sale,
exchange or storage of it.
A similar case brought by the gov
eminent to cancel the Teapot Dome
lease by Harry +. Sinclair still is
pending and was not directly in
volved in today's decision, although
some of the structures of the highest
court on Fall leasing policy in general
were taken as applicable to both pro-
ceedings.
