RUTH AND Judd
ENTER SING SING
TO AWAIT DEATHS
Woman in Good Spirits,
Man Depressed During
Trip.

BIZ United Press
OSSINING, n. Y, May 1.-THE
trail Of Illicit love that Ruth Snyder
and Henry Judd Gray followed so
recklessly brought them today to
the death house. Just beyond its
threshold is the electric chair.
They were stripped of the cloth
ing worn by other men and women
and dressed inc prison garb. Their
names and identities were taken
away and they were given numbers.
They were led to separate cells and
the heavy steel doors were shut.
When they leave those cells again,
except for their brief periods Of
exercise, it probably will be to march
falteringly to execution, unless
some miracle can obtain them a new
trial or executive clemency.
Few See Prison Entry
Their entry to Sing Sing prison
was in marked contrast to the pub
lcity of their exit earlier today
from the county Jail at Long Island
City, where they had been kept
during their trial and conviction
for the murder of Mrs. Snyder's
husband.
Excited thousands saw them leave
the jail in automobiles. but when
they arrived here after a little more
than an hours ride up the Hudson
River. only a handful watched at
the gates.
Some 200 curious spectators
watched while the great gates of
Sing Sing prison opened and the
automobiles with their police escort
rolled in. Then the gates were closed
between the outside world and Ruth
Snyder and Henry Gray.
The two lovers were taken from the
Long Islnad City Jail just before
1880 a. m. and started in automobiles
for the prison.
The unhappy lovers, Mrs. Snyder
bravely assuming an air of non
chalance and defiance and Gray
subdued and unhappy, did not meet.
They were placed in separate auto
mobiles, heavily guarded by motor
cycle police. and headed for the
Greensboro bridge over the East
River.
They were to pass through the
center of New York and along
Upper Broadway through Yonkers
to Ossining.
A crowd of several thousand
watched as the pair were led out Of
the Jail to the waiting automobiles
and whisked away. All arrange
ments had been made to avoid de-
lay and prevent the departure from
/ becoming a public spectacle.
Special Police Clear Way
Traffic lanes had been cleared by
special squads of police and the au-
tomobiles were to be given the right
Of way through to Ossining.
Early morning clouds had cleared
away and the trip was made in the
sunshine, in accordance with the
wish expressed by Gray. The corset
salesman, who has become resigned
to dying, was almost pathetic in his
eagerness to spend as much as pos
sible of his remaining days in the
sunshine.
Mrs. Snyder had a cheerful air and
chatted with the two matrons ac-
companying her. smiling at times.
She was dressed in black. Her hair
had been carefully dressed.

OIL CHARGES ARGUED
Governments Suit Against 80 Com
panies Comes Up.

Arguments began today before
Charles Martindale, master in chan
Gerry, in the Governments suit
against more than thirty large oil
companies, which alleges that the
defendants have monopolized an
"oil cracking" process.
The process in question, according
to oil men, enables refineries to
obtain far greater percentage of
gasoline from crude oil than the old
methods allowed.
According to the Government
charges, the defendants have held
secret the process.
Standard Oil of Indiana and the
TeXaco company are the two larg-
est companies named.
The defendants today offered ar
guments.

PASTOR, IN
TALK, ASKS
TOLERANCE
Dr.. WiCkS Discusses CathO-
lie Angle in Poll
tics.

If a Catholic is nominated for
President and he thinks him a good
loyal citizen, a man of character and
ability and superior TO his opponent
he would cheerfully vote for him,
DIR. Frank S. c. Wicks declared in
his morning sermon at All Souls Uni.
tartan Church Sunday.
Il would hate to see a Catholic en-
ter the race for the presidency be-
cause it would mean that our coun-
try would be torn by religious dis.
pution and intolerance, while vital
issues would be thrust into the
background" he added.
DR.. Wicks thus answered his own
question, rs it safe to elect a Cath.
Ole to the presidency of the United
States?"

important. Pastor Saws

He declared that if it were a
purely political question he would
not bring it to the pulpit, but be-
cause he believed it to be a ques-
ton that touches American citizen
ship it should be freely discussed in
the church. This situation is
brought about, he said. because a
Catholic is one OF the leading can
didates for the presidency.
DR.. Wicks presented reasons why
many believe it would be unsafe to
elect Catholic, quoting encyclical
letters Of various popes which, he
said, seemed to put church above
State. In discussing this DR.. Wicks
said that Protestants take practical
ly the same attitude, putting their
conscience above the state.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-05-16
Quotes Al Smith

Turning to the other side Of the
question. DR.. Wicks pointed out that
Governor AL Smith of New York.
Catholic presidential candidate. had
explained in a recently published
letter his position, meeting each OBJ
lection fairly and squarely.
Governor Smith quotes prominent
Catholic clergymen as denying the
right of the church to interfere in
secular and political questions, DR.
Wicks declared.
THE United States have had two
Supreme Court chief justices who
were Catholics, and who showed no
divided allegiance" he said.

Samuel Goldwyn, producer of

Ronald Colman plays two roles in

STATE MOVES
LARGE CROP IN

Not a Single Major Complaint
Of Grain Car Shortage Re-
ceived in 1927

Close cooperation by the railroads,

Northwest Shippers Advisory board
and operators of country elevators
enabled North Dakota to move the
fourth largest grain crop in it's his
tory to market in record time in
1927, C. G. Mcdonnell, member Of
the state railroad board, said here
today. ~
Mcdonnell is in direct charge Of
the warehouse. department Of the
railroad board and makes it his bus
mess to keep>-a check on the 1900
elevators In tho state. Commenting
on the 1927 Y grain movement, he
said: a..
'sNot single major. complaint Of
grain car shortage was received at
this office during the crop season
Of 1927. One or two complaints
that cars were not spotted promptly
were received, but were satisfied
within 10 hours.
Trucks; Arc Big Help
THE crop WIS placed on the pri-
mary market much more rapidly than
in any FORMER year, due principally
to the more common use Of trucks in
hauling from the threshing machine
to the elevator. That practically no
congestion occurred = in the trans
portatioh machine il due 70 several

kept in close touch, not only with the
situation at the terminals but also
with that in the country, and the
grain men were able to SO direct
their shipments that the only sign
Of congestion was at Duluth for a.,
short period when the unusually
heavy movement from the nortkcrn
part of the state was at its peak.
"Guided by the experience Of
previous years, an embargo was
placed on Duluth as soon rs it be-
came apparent that congestion would
occur. This permitted the Duluth
yards to be cleared and shipping "a
