MACKEY'S TRIAL
OFF UNTIL NOV. Is
Attorney Unable to Appear in
Arlington and Court Grants
Postponement.
By a staff Correspondent of The Star.

ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, Va, October 31.-The trial
of former Commonwealth Attorney
Crandal Mackey. under a warrant
obtained by Hugh Reid. candidate for
House of Delegates, charging Mr..
Mackey with procuring the publica-
ton in a county paper of a state
ment that Reid had been rejected
for membership in the ku kluX klan,
was postponed until November Is,
when the case was called this MORN
ing bcfoSe Police Judge Harry Thom-
as.
The postponement was made at the
request of Mr.. Mackey. who sent word
to the court that he would be unable
TO appear, because of the necessity for
his appearance as counsel in a case
before the District of Columbia Su
preme Court.
MIR. Reid swore to the warrant after
he had publicly called on Mr.. Mackey
to make a retraction of the statement
which Reid declared to be false.
Mackey refused to withdraw his state
ment, reiterating in an open letter
that he had been reliably informed
that Mr.. Reid had applied for mem
bership in the Arlington County Klan
and had been rejected because of the
fact that he was not a native-born
American citizen.
A large crowd of political leaders
and others interested in prediction
controversies was on hand, but was
doomed to disappointment.

PLANES SEEK BODIES
OF STORM VICTIMS
Aviators Sweep Irish Coast in
Search of Fishing Crews
Drowned at Sea Saturday.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DUBLIN, Ireland, October ST.
Two Irish Free State airplanes were
searching the Galway and Mayo
coast today for the bodies of victims
of the Irish fishing fleet overtaken by
a great storm on Saturday.
1t is now feared that more than
fifty men were drowned. many of
them within sight of their homes on
the shore. Virtually every bread
winner at Lackan Bay, village in
County Mayo, was drowned within
200 or 800 yards of his home when
the fishing boats were dashed to
pieces on the rocks. One family lost
five men.
In Cleggan, County Galway, and
nearby fishing towns 81 fishermen
are missing, while eight bodies have
been washed ashore.
Thousands of seals driven in by
the storm sought shelter in the cliffs
and their cries during the gales fury
added to the eerie work of rescue
parties seeking the missing men.

der the June Is allocations and subse-

The commission is dissatisfied with
the situation. realizing that the radio

that even more radical changes will
be necessary before the tumble can
be so rearranSed as to prevent clash

While the military authorities made
no mention of the National Guard. the
adjutant general has checked troop
rosters and equipment and informed
Gov. Adams that mobilization could
be under way in few hours. The
governor is known to have an un-
