Oakland, Calf, March 24.--(P)-
Secretary Of the Interior Hubert
Work today made an acrimonious
reply to Senator Oddic, Republican,
Nevada, who told President Coolidge
yesterday the country would be "bet-

Senator Oddie advised the pres

states were dissatisfied with Secre-

With reference to Senator Oddie's
attack in connection with the with

Sc CHANG GES
ARE MADE IN
DECLARATION
Court Adjourned Until 2 p.
NJ. to Give Defense COun.
sci Time to Study Them

Detroit, March N.-Rp-Fifty-s
changes were made today in Aaron
Sapiro's declaration of l4l separate
and distinct alleged libcls against
him by Henry Ford.
The amendments, suggested three
days ago by Federal Judge Fred M.
Raymond, were handed in by Sapiro's
counsel at the opening Of court.
Defense counsel insisted upon ad.
journment until Monday to permit
them to "study an entirely new
case" The court was reluctant.
however, and adjourned court until
2 o'clock this afternoon, to permit
preliminary examination Of the II
typewriter pages of the amended
declaration.
If it developed then that the new
declaration presented such involved
features that further study was
necessary, he indicated he would de-
clare an adjournment until next
Monday.
No Decided Change
William Henry Gallagher, chief Of
counsel for Sapiro who sued Ford for
100000 upon allegations that his
efforts and standing as an organizer
of farmers cooperative organizations
have been damaged by articles print
cd in the Ford-owned Dearborn In
dependent. stated that the amend
ments made no decided change in the
legal status of his case.
ut tends merely to clarity it and
to bring it within narrower limita-
:ions SO that it can be more readily
comprehended by the average juror" !"
said Gallagher.
The introduction to the amended
complaint was framed in more tech
nical fashion, said Walter F. Lynch,
of Sapiro's counsel, but con,lnu
nothing new.
Some Phrases Stricken
Such alleged libels, as "the Jewish
organization the "Jewish movement
on American agriculture" the "Jewish
promoters of the new American farm
trust" the Jewish Influence" "un-
der Jewish CONTROL Oriental farm
ers" and "Jewish submarine in
America" were stricken from the
declaration as gencralizations COW
cred in more specific language in
other parts of the declaration
The amended declaration, SapirO's
counsel explained, confined til. issue
more closely to the Dearborn Inde-
pendent's attacks upon Jews and to
the charges Of communism ana Bo.-

POLICE THINK
CHICAGO MAN
KIDNAPPED
RumOrs State That Clarence
Lazarus, Wealthy Gambler,
Is Held For Ransom

Chicago, March 2l-LP Under
world "rackstcers.'" finding their
usual operations failing as revenue
producers. apparently have taken II
try at kidnapping TO bring in easy
money quickly.
Reports to the police that Clarence
Lazarus, wealthy Chicago gambler,
was missing, quickly were followed
by rumors through the underworld
grapevine that he had been abducted
and was being held for a high ran
som, variously estimated at from
$4,000 to 100000. Lazarus disap-
peared late Monday afternoon, and
his wife, after waiting frantically for
word from him, finally notified the
police. She denied, however, that
ransom demands had been made.
Reports in circulation here said
that Lazarus, who once conducted an
American imitation of Monte Carlo
on a south side boulevard until he
was raided in 1920, had been seized
near his home and, under the menace
of guns, forced into curtained auto
mobile and driven away.
Lazarus was known as the largest
commissioner of baseball bets in the
country and then as one Of the
largest operators of baseball pools.
In the last few years, however, little
had been heard of him, and he had
been living quietly in a fashionable
southside neighborhood, giving his
attention to real estate.
