can silver over. He said that A.
MoKinnon, D. c. O'Neil, himself and
Helm worked together in counting
this money He stated that this
surplus had happened three or four
months before this time, and ex-
planned just how this happened.
In answer to the question, What
did Mr.. McKinnon say when you
We're checked out?' Sperry replied,
Here is one fellow that checks out
to penny, just when he leaves. the
bank, The witness then denied the
alleged meeting Of July 10, backing
lis point by explaining just where
he had spent the evening. A meet
ing took place the next morning,
however, and again Sperry denied
having taken any money, he testl-
fled. He said that McKinnon had
asked him if he had taken four or
five thousand dollars, and would be

replied, mo sir l did not take it and

Specter Of GaIlows
For Fatlin Depends S
Upon Supreme Court

PHOENIX, March 81. R-W neither
the specter of the gallows which for
IA years has hovered near the life of
william Fatlin convicted murderer,
will be forever driven away depends
upon one question, oral arguments
in the state supreme court on a writ
of habeas corpus revealed today.
The question which will determine
Fatlfn's fate is whether repeating of
the death penalty in first degree
murder cases by the electorate in
November, 1916, acted as a legislative
pardon to all persons convicted of
first degree murder prior to that
time. Judge John w. Ray and c..
H. Young, counsel for Fatlin, argue
that such was the case and that their
client is being held in prison without
legal authority and is being unlaw-
fully deprived of his liberty.
Fatlin, convicted of the murder of
man named Peterson with whom he
lived, twice was sentenced to hang,
but fate intervened and today he is
serving time in Florence prison,
which so far as attorneys have been
able to determine was never ad-
judged upon him.

Utah Representative
Warns Ariz. Against
BouIderDa Attitude

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, March 21
P).-Utah can no longer stand in the
way of Boulder canyon dam legislation
by congress, members of the state
water storage commission were told
today by Representative Don B. Cotton.
The state must prepare a constructive
program Anything within reason de-
sired by Utah will be conceded by
California Representative Cotton said.
During his talk before the commits
sion the Utah representative said chat
in his opinion the next congress, dur
ing the short term, will enact legisla-
tion providing for the construction of
the Boulder canyon dam and the all
American canal and any reasonable
guarantee that the states within the
Colorado river drainage are desired
will be included.
Regarding the claim as to the nav
liability of the river, Representative
Cotton said that it is an established
fact and cannot be changed by dec
laration. Regarding the seven-state
pact, he added, that is question for
Arizona alone to settle.
Regarding the third point raised by
Utah, that of a comprehensive plan
for development of the entire basin, he
held that Utah must be more specific.
Regarding Arizona's desire for an
annual tax of Sc per horse power of
hydro electric energy developed, Rep
resentative Cotton said such tax
would enable the state to declare an
annual dividend and remit all taxes to
taxpayers. He said fee of 81 would
be more reasonable and predicted that
if Arizona maintains her present atti-
tude the bill will be passed and Ari-
zona will not benefit a dollar.
The commission directed that the
state engineer prepare a compilation
of data as to the available water from
the Colorado river and the needs of

poses,

DETROIT, March 21 (P)-Attorneys
IN Aaron Sapiro's $1,000 900 libel suit
against Henry Ford haggled nearly
all day over single brief interroga-
tion and at the end Federal Judge
Fred M. Raymond made a far reach
ing decision in twow word ruling.
The courts collection Sustained .
kept William J. Cameron editor of
the Ford owned Dearborn Independ-

What are the facts as to whether
your original plans were for a series
of articles against the Jews ard
not Aaron Sapiro?"
Tt meant, however, according to the
judges Interpretation for newspaper,
luen that Testimony concerning ideas
CT the Jewish race in general will
not be admissible, and that the case
does not involve Henry Ford's ideas
of the race as a whole, and that
Ford's alleged malice toward Jews
as a people cannot be brought in.''
Judge Raymond said that the auth

would rule. on that question only
after he had given the subject much
more extensive study and thought

Dearborn Independent.
That the general tenor of the In
dependent articles from 1920 to 1922
was unfavorable to Jewish. people
was admitted by Stewart Hanley Of
Ford's counsel, but he contended
that there was no proof that the
term Jew carried any opprobrium.
