BY the Associated Press.
It is just as important to the Gov
crnment to build merchant vessels az
1t is cruisers, Senator Fletcher. Demo
crat, Florida, declared yesterday in
discussing the merchant marine.
"It is time this Government adopt
ed definite policy of keeping the
American flag flying over it's mer-
chant marine" he added. The Cool
idge policy OF trying to get the Gov
ernment out of the shipping business
at all costs is all wrong. We should
quit attempting to sell our mer-
chant ships at song to private op'
orators.
The Government already has sacri-
feed too many vessels to private op-
orators, who may at their discretion
turn them over TO foreign flag. We
should say TO these people that the
Government is in the shipping husi-
ness to stay. Not only would this
aid American business, but in time
of war the merchant marine is just
as important military auxiliary
as are. cruisers.

placement to keep the shipping lines

vANzETTI CASE
BEFORE FULLER

BOSTON, May 4.-Governor Fuller
at last is formally launched into a
full review of the famous Sacco-Van-
zetti case.
He received today the petition from
Bartolomen ii which he has de-
manded befoae tA1iag up their case
with view to investigating fully the
frame-up by which the two Italian
workers are scheduled to be electro
cuted at Charlestown State Prison on
July 10.
The petition to Fuller does not plead
for mercy, it spurns any implication
of guilt and demands no pardon.
Vanzetti asks simply for liberty or for
death.
The petition, an eloquent document
of 10 closely typewriter pages and
rivalling Vanzetti's great speech be-
fore the covering Judge Thayer in
Dedham court on the occasion of the
death sentence, was penned laborious-
ly by Vanzetti himself over a period
of weeks. Long conferences with
Sacco resulted in minor changes while
William G. Thompson, chief of de-
tense counsel, has revised the petition
to conform with certain legal require
ments.
Sacco refused to sign the docu-
ment, accompanying it were deposit
lions by dozen noted publicists sup
porting the petition.

Tense Committee, including Aldino

Shielding the Higher-ups
Through Dismissal Of
Oil Co. Indictments

Indictments against the Century
Consolidated Oil Company, and
numerous other defendants, charg-
ing conspiracy to defraud inves-
tors through the sale Of worthless
stock were ordered dismissed yes
terday by United States Attorney
Charles H. futile.
According to the true bills
scores of investors were defrauded
of large sums of money through
purchase of stock in the corpor-
alton, which was represented as a
S10,000,000 concern.
A sensational phase of the early
investigation was the allegation
that the defendants had represent
ed to investors that the late Char
les B. Manville, formerly head of
the Johns Manville Asbestos Com
pany, was president of the Cen
tury Company, and that w. H..
Sage of the Iowa State Insurance
Company was its secretary.
Simpson reported that the death
of Manville would retard investi-
cation. The indictment was
quashed, despite the efforts Of
victims to regain their losses said
to run into thousands of dollars.

Expect Suckers to
Bite on Big Loan
For Polish Regime

While Wall Street is torn between
two desires, the proposed $80,000,0OO
loan to Poland looms nearer and
nearer.
Recognizing Poland's perilous posi-
ton, surrounded on all sides by states
against which she has pursued
shameless aggression, the bankers of
the Bankers Trust Co. and Blair &
Co., who are negotiating the loan,
have run up against big obstacles.
The public is expected to fight shy
of any loan to such an unstable
quantity as the Polish government,
with its quarrels with the Soviet
Union, Lithuania and Germany.
To counterfeit this lack of conf
dence, the American bankers are in
sisting on American representatives
on the ctonrol board which is to de-
eide to what uses the $80,000,000 is to
be put. These representatives would
have practical veto power, to which
the Polish fascists object bitterly
They are expected however to swal-
low their pride and take the eighty
millions.
The American bankers will get
fat rake-off on such a speculative
loan but will pass the risk on to the
suckers out in the provinces who be-
lieve the Polish government will be
able to pay interest and principal.
AS to whether the suckers will bite,
or shy off as they did on the Italian
loan recently, is yet to be seen.
