nearly score Of aviators who have
entered the Dole air race from the
Pacific coast to Hawaii a week
from tomorrow, details for their re
,eption were completed today.
Preparations for the start of the

completed that the pilots will have
little to worry about except the
condition of their planes.
The entrants or their representa-
ives must appear at contest head
quarters here Monday to draw for
positions at the takeoff. Fifteen
minutes will separate the start of
the machines. The aviators and their
havigators must undergo eXaminat-
ions to determine their ability hut
outside of these two requirements
their time, will be their own.
There are 10 aviators in the race

man of the contest committee, said.
He added that he anticipates sever
al additional entries from the mid
die west and east which he nnaer
stands We're mailed before midnight

STA AYERS
RECEIVE
VERDICT
Sacco and Vanzetti Told
of Governors Refusal
to Change Sentence.
FIGHT TO CONTINUE
Defense Plans to Employ
Every Effort to Save
Condemned Men.

BOSTON, Aug More than 10
hours after the rest of the world
heard the fateful news, Nicola Sac
co and Bartolomeo Vanzetti learned
today that what appeared TO be
their last hope for life had van
ished.
81 believe with the jury, that
these men were guilty and that they
had a fair trial. | furthermore be-
Heve that there was no justifiable
reason for giving them a new
trial.
These words, which, formed the
conclusion of Governor Alvan T.
t'uller's decision, 2100 word doe
ument made public last night, were
taken to the condemned men this
morning by William G. Thompson,
director of the legal fight to save
them from the electric chair.
At his own request, the chief
counsel was permitted to be- first
to break the disheartening news to
the two men who, unless all signs
fail, will pay with their lives one
week from today for double MUIR
der committed in holdup at South
Braintree seven years ago.
With Thompson came Mrs. Rosa
Sacco, loyal mother of Sacco's two
children, and an interpreter. For
an hour and quarter they re-
manned in the death house, talking
in low voices.
Separated by iron bars the sad
little group gathered close by the
path that leads to the nearby cleo
trio chair, and talked of the govern
or's decision.
Mrs. Sacco did most of the talk
ing.
In rapid italian, which was in
terspersed with an occasional bit of
broken English. the little woman
who has fought valiantlv that her
husband s life might be spared,
seemed to be explaining in her own
way the verdict of the state's chief
executive.
The governor, grave, unshaveu
and haggard after long days and
nights preparing his decision on the
ease which has stirred the world as
few murder cases have ever done,
left the state house last night for
his summer home at Rye Beach,
n. II.
When he was safely ont of reach
of questioning or interference. the
decision was given out at 1880 p.
m.
State police officers were guard
ing the governor. A special guard
was believed to have been assigned
to the state house and other public
buildings.
At Worcester, police denied they
were guarding the homes of Judge
Webster Thayer, who presided at
the trial. and Chief Justice Arthur
P. Rugg of the Massachusetts, SUI
perior court. But it was reported
both residences were being watched.
A squad of 40 policemen was held
ready during the night in anticipa-
ton of possible trouble, but the
citv was calm.

PLAIN FOLKS
SAY COOLIDGE
WORDS SINCERE,
Opinion at Rapid City Is
That President Will
Not Be Candidate.
By PAUL r. MALLON
Omitted Press Staff CORRESPONDENCE

RAPID CITY, S. D.. Aug. A
representative cross section of opin-
ion in this representative western
town-now the summer capital of
the Observation-Disclosures that the man
in the streets believes President
Coolidge definitely renowned the
throne when he said he did not
choose to be candidate in 1923.
While the storm of debate RACES
among politicians, pro and con, the
United Press today asked five lead
ing citizens of Rapid City how
they, the voters, feel about it.
Only one of the five suggested
Mr.. Coolidge might relent his posi-
ton if the next Republican nation
al convention desired to nominate
him, and most of them were glad
that Mr.. Coolidge had decided
against another term.
Views Refreshing
Their views give a refreshing in
sight into interpretations placed
upon Mr.. Coolidge's statement by
those not interested personally in
politics. Here is what they say:
Albert C. Hunt, president Of
the gas company:
"My first impression was that he
is like good many other people
he is not candidate. But I thin'
if he is urged very much, he will
be a candidate
George Williams, attorney: 81 ex-
pected all along that Mr.. Coolidge
would refuse to take another term.
A. K. Thomas, director of II
First National Bank: II dct It
know Mr.. Coolidge very well, but I
have formed the opinion that when
he makes statement he thinks it
out beforehand and usually means
what he says
Judge William Buell.: "The eff
feet of the statement will be to
prevent any threat of break in
the Republican party in the west,
just as when Roosevelt ran. don t
think Mr.. Coolidge would accept
the nomination under any condi-
ton.

FEAR NOCALES
Man EXECUTED
BY MEXECANS

NOGALES, Ariz., Aug. 4.-Fear
was expressed here today for the
safety of Gabe Rendon, former
stage line operator of Tucson, who
has disappeared following his arrest
and confinement in a Mexican mill
tary Quartet.
Rendon's wife and his brother
Frank Rendon expressed the belief
that Rendon was the victim of
Mexican firing squad and had been
put to death in Nogales Sonora, by
Mexican military authorities for al
legged connection With the recent De
La Huerta revolutionary movement.
Rendon crossed the international
line to Nogales, Sonora, Tuesday,
and was Immediately taken into
custody. Efforts of his relatives,
who. have come here from Tucson
to learn his whereabouts, have
brought replies from Mexican Off
Gals that he is "out in the hills. y
"Gabe had absolutely no connec-
ton with De La Huerta other than
hiring his ears to the Mexican lead
ers followers like any other taxi
owner would do" Frank Rendon
said.
Gabc Rendon had been operating
The ~" Taxi Service, since sell
ing the Nogales-Tueson stage line to
the Pickwick Company.

PEACH INDUSTRY
HEAVILY HIT BY
PRICE WARFARE

San FRANCISCO, Aug A.
Peach canneries in the San Joaquin,
Sacramento and Santa Clara val
lcvs were being operated at capac
ity today following settlement of
the battle between growers and can
ners which started nearly month
ago.
Growers throughout the state ex-
pressed satisfaction over the terms
Of the armistlce. Both sides claim
ed they would benefit by the price
schedule approved by their repre-
sentatIVcs after numerous meetings
here.
The army Of idle workers was
rapidly diminishing as practically
every grower began hiring pickers
and orchard hands. There have been
approximately $4,000 laborers idle
during the deadlock.
The compromise price is arranged
on graduated scale according to
the production. 1t varies from $40
a ton if the crop exceeds 1000 900
cases to $35 If there is less than
100000 cases.
1t is estimated that approximate
ly 5000 900 cases remain on the
trees. If this is correct the growers
will receive $50 ton, the figure
they first demanded and was refus
I'd by the Gamers.
According to reports from Modes
to, % per cent of the Tuscan peach
es have been allowed to rot on the
ground during the alteration but
the Midsummers, Philips and Palo-
ras are beginning to ripen and will
be ready to pick early next week.
According to estimates, there are
10000 tons of the latter varieties
in Stanlslaus county.
Reports of the end of the dead
lock also started celebration in
the Marysville district, where re-
ports of possible trouble from the
idle workers have worried the resi-
dents.
1T is believed that more than ST.
100000 has been lost by the peach
industry because of the trouble.
