DR.. COOK MUST TURN
TO U. S. FOR RELEASE
Supreme Court or Federal Board
Only Chance for Former
Explorer.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, June 15.-Dr.
Frederick A. Cook, explorer and oil
promoter, must look to the United
States Supreme Court or the Federal
Parole Board for his release from
decision handed down here in the
Fifth United States Court of Appeals.
The decision said, in effect. that Fed
eral Judge Wilson at Fort Worth was
wrong when he ordered the release
of DR. Cook on a five-year probation
period and that the probation act of
statutes regarding the release of
prisoners.
The probation act cannot properly
be given the effect of changing the
law which was in existence at the
time it was passed except so as the
language used discloses an intention
to make a change" the opinion said.
1.-The law then in existence included
the rule that a~court cannot set aside
nor alter its final judgment after ex-
piration of the term at which it was
entered, unless the proceeding for
that purpose was begun during the
term, or the courts control of the
case be retained in some authorized
way"
To sustain Judge Wilson's order,
the opinion added. would amount to
setting at naught the parole and
communication statutes. and they would
be of no force save where a trial
judge elected to let them remain in
force
The opinion is expected to Straighten
out a tangle created by a number Of
applications for release under the
probation act filed in various parts of
the country since the Cook applica-
ton was filed.
Dr. Cook was convicted on fraud
charges in November. 1928, and sen.
fenced TO IA years in prison and to
pay fine of $4,000.

PEACE RESTORED
AT FUR CONVENTION
Superior Number of ''Regu-
lar" Delegates Brings About
Armed Truce.

Peace apparently having descended,
temporarily, at least. upon the con-
vention of the International Fur
Workers Union of the United States
and Canada, police protection was
withdrawn at today's session.
1t is an armed truce, however, en-
forced by the superior numbers of the
regulars" who yesterday successful
ly excluded the New York delegation
representing what union leaders say
is the communistic movement in the
needle trades. That this faction is still
to be reckoned with was indicated by

Harry Englander, their Toronto

contended that the convention was the
proper body to hear the complaints of
his associates.
The meeting probably would have

Chairman Shackton appealed to the
convention to accept the challenge"
This question, it was indicated by
members Of the General Executive
Board, must be settled finally and def

to get down to the transaction of

temper of the regular" delegates,
the outcome of the New York unions

That the committee on preservation
of the trade unions has hundreds of
thousands of dollars on hand to

Then we can go back to our real work

proposals of peace. Schiplacoff de-
cIared that the radical element had

were only seeking to control the
needle industry.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 15.-Reac-
ton to an address before the National
Church by Rev. Henry Lewis, rector
of st. Andrews at Ann Arbor. Mich,
in which he defended the tendency
among the younger generation to in
dulge in sex experiments" was eX.
pected today as delegates reviewed the
speech.
Declaring his contact with the
younger generation makes me proud
of it," Rev. Mr.. Lewis debated whether
the church might not do better to
recognize unmarried unions"
The speech created a sensation, COM
ing at the very opening of the COM
gress. Right Rev. John G. Murray OF
Maryland, presiding bishop of the
Episcopal Church, followed it imme-
diately with an impassioned defense
of "the sanctity of the home"
Clergymen Take Issue.
Bishop Edward l.. Parsons of Cali
fornia, and two other clergymen also
took issue with Rev. Mr.. Lewis. one
of the latter. however. remarking that
the Ann Arbor rector deserved the
Congressional medal for his frank
ness" Many of the delegates. on the
other hand, were quoted as approving
Rev. Mr.. Lewis statements.
The loyalty of modern youth to it's
ideals. whatever they may be. counted
as the principal factor with Rev. Mr..
Lewis.
1.-The boys and girls are in love with
life" Lewis asserted. They discuss
sex. they try experiments, but here
is the chief point-they live by what
they think is right, not by code.
Opposes Fixed Code.
1--WE cannot presuppose a fixed and
invariable moral code by which the
men of all ages and all degrees of civil
lization are to be tried and convicted
or acquitted.
''You can no more try this age by
the lives of the Old Testament Patri-
archs."
The speaker declared that "it to
unmarried unions would do
away. as some urge it vvoul0. with
and the double STANDARD.
and better protect the children OF legal
then to keep on fusSing
with rules about divorce and the idea
that all marriages are made in heaven
Is utter folly"
He also said that science had created
an entirely new moral situation, and
made a plea for the Intelligent use
Of birth control, at least in families
where the economic situation is poor"
CommendS Youth.

ON WOMAN'S BACK
Stripped and Beaten by IL

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOCCOA, Ga, June 15.-Small town
gossip thought to have originated
with an old man in the community
finally reaped 81 blows across a wom-
ans bare back. The story Mrs. Ansley
Bowers told of an attack on her and
her 15-year-old son has led to the ar
rest of four men and to a charge laid
at the door of the KU Klux Khan.
From a hospital bed in Gainesville,
Ga. near here, Mrs. Bowers told news
paper men that II men in three auto
mobiles called at her home late last
Sunday night, forced her to accom-
pany them to a lonely road and then
beat her four times. Her son Floyd
was taken, too, she said, and beaten
when he cried out against her assail-
ants.
Woman Blames Khan.
"These men are all members Of the
Ku KIux Khan; there is no doubt about
it," Mrs. Bowers declared to news
paper men. They wore the Ku KluX
Khan uniform and threatened to brand
the letter X on my back unless /
left town"
Nathan Bedford Forrest, grand
dragon OF the I<u KluX Khan in Geor-
gia, replied to Mrs. Bowers assertion
with a statement in which he said:
IF any member of the Ku Klux
Khan took part in the Toccoa fiogging,
the Khan win do its utmost to send
him to the State penitentiary."
The "old man to whom the gossip
was charged remained in the back
ground. \ prominent business man
of the town told investigators that so
persistent was this ''talker" that the
chief of police took cognizance of the
stories, but that after five days he
dropped the matter as not worthy of
concern.
Four Men Arrested.
Mrs. Bowers husband from whom
she has been separated two years, is a
railroad man, and two Of the four men
arrested on charges of having partici-
pated in the fiogging are railroad en-
ployes.
Hospital physicians said that the
lower part of Mrs Bowers body was
almost fiayed. The son. who was not
severely hurt. said he counted 50
blows laid on his mothers body.
