Of crime since prohibition would be

1t also is felt that inclusion OF the
general subject of crime in the pro-

to dissipate the growing impression
that the federal governments chief

1t is said to be Hoover's idea that
the governments relation to the
problem of crime and enforcement
should be placed in better perspec-
tive, and that this method would
accomplish that.
Majority leader Tilson limited al

amendment for an additional $24,-

garding local armory financing and
construction.
The resolution committee calling
for the investigation was introduced
and backed by senatorial members of
the state budget committee who
pointed out that rentals to holding
companies cost the state about
S350,000 a year and armory debts
will amount to more than $2.500,000
within the year.
The holding companies, building
the armories in cooperation with
the armory board, are financed by
the Peoples State bank and the
building done by the Ostron Realty
and Construction Company, one of
the banks interests, it was pointed
out.
at the first committee meeting it
was shown that the state is paying
about $1,000 day for armories in
which national guardsmen meet
about twice month to drill.
This is aside from the $445, $50
annual appropriation asked in the
budget of Adjutant- General William
H. Kershner for the land army and
$4,000 for the naval militia.

2. That Trotskis opinions, while
emanating inside the Soviet bound
aries, would be weightier, both at
home and abroad, than they would
be if he were outside.
3. That Trotski has been acquir-
ing the halo of martyr while in
exile, and it would be easier to off
set his propaganda if he were
abroad.
The most serious repercussion of
Trotski's departure may be expect
ed among the communist parties of
Germany, France, England and
elsewhere, which now are shaken by
internal conflicts, many of which
center around Trotski and his view
points. His appearance in the arena
abroad probably will bring many of
the conflicts to a head and result in
a far-reaching split in the COM

LONDON, Jan. 31.-Ths arrival Of
Leon Trotsk IN the outer world
fiJm his place of exile in Russian
Turkestan was awaited with keen
interest today by European govern
ments and observers Of affairs in
Russia.
The news that Trotski had been
permitted 70 leave Alma-Ata, an
nounced exclusively by the Unsted
Press last Monday, tended to be cen
frmed today from various points
although Reval. Riga, Berlin and
ether customary sources of Russian
news which Moscow is trying to keep
secret, we're confused and vague
about the details.
The most authentic information
received by the United Press was
chat Trotski with his wife and son,
Leon, were en- route to Constantin-
ople and that eventually Trotski
hoped to reach Berlin. 1t was not
entirely clear whether Trotski was
leaving of his own volition or was
ordered out by the Soviet govern
ment. It was understood he was
leaving with his own consent.
A story received by the United
Press in London apparently uncen-

Times STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Anc- her
possible appointee to high place
under the Hoover administration
will come under congressional fire
within few days
She is Mrs. Mabel Walker WILLIE
brandt, assistant attorney general in
charge of liquor violations, and
center of most of the excitement in
the presidential campaign. She has
been mentioned for a judgeship or
head of the prohibition bureau.
The other Hoover associates sub
ject to attack are Secretary Mellon
and William j. Donovan, assistant
encouragement, mentioned for
cabinet posts.
For three months slnoldering
wrath against Mrs. Willebrandt has
been banked in many a Democratic
breast on Capitol hill, and it will
break forth shortly after the special
prison committee of the house pre-
sents a report on its survey of the
federal penal system.
While Representatives Boylan of
New York and Bell of Georgia, min
ority members, propose to direct
their criticism chiefly against Mrs.
Willebrandt'S placing of depart
mental agents in Atlanta and Leav-
enworth penitentiaries to check on
officials there, the former intends to
aSSail her campaign speeches, her
raids along Broadway before the
election, and the recently abandoned
use of conspiracy clause to obtain
dry law indictments.
Boylan, author of the resolution
for the prison inquiry, agreed to
drop his demand for criticism of

LOST IN STORM
Posse Of 500 Mounted Men
Fail to Find Trace Of
6-Year-Old Youth

GORDON, Nebr., March 14.-R)-
Five hundred men. riding horseback,
had failed today to find any trace
of six year old Willie Reeves, lost
in the binding storm which has
covered this section with between
six and eight feet of snow. 1t is
feared he has persisted.
The boy went to a pasture yester-
day to hunt a pair of mittens. 1t
was misting. The mist turned to
snow and soon into a raging storm.
When the boy failed to return,
the alarmed parents communicated
with neighbors and a posse was
formed. AS the storms intensity
continued, q general alarm was
sounded bringing recruits from miles
around.
The country is rough. There are
ravines and canyons into which the
boy may have tumbled. There are
sheltered hooks into which he may
have crawled.
The reeves place is about II miles
northeast of Gordon, more than 20
auto loads of men were marooned at
the ranch today. unable to get away
because of the deep drifted snow.

Cotton opened steady at an advance
Of 10 to 10 points on renewal Of the
recent buying movement, which ap-
peared to be stimulated by relatively
firm cables. reports Of rains in the
eastern belt and large domestic
consumption figures.
The advance to 21.33 for May and
20.51 for october met a good deal Of

New Orleans and Liverpool selling,
causing reactions of several points
right after the call. But there was
continued good demand. and the
market was steady at the end of the
first half hour. Prices were about
10 to II points net higher.
Reactions from the opening adj
vance carried old crop months back

At midday the market was rather

Lieutenant Jack w. Albright Of
Philadelphia as killed and Lieut..
w. D. Ligenfritz of Upper Darby,
Pa, was injured last night as a
plane piloted by Albright crashed
in making a forced landing near
Belair, Md.
They were flying a plane report
ed to belong to the Philadelphia
National Guard air units, and were
returning to Philadelphia after fly
ing during the day to visit Mary
land Guard aviators at Logan field
here.
Caught in the fog and rain they
sought a landing place as the mo-
tor began to fail. and according to
Lieut.. L~igenfritz the plane was
banking in a sharp turn about 400
feet from the ground when the mo-
tor went dead. Victor II. Bowers,
living near the scene heard the
plane circling before the crash and
found the plane nose-down in a
field, with the wheels caught
around a tree and the motor driven
back into the fuselage where it
had pinned Lieut.. Albright.

NEW YORK, March 14.-P)-
The stock market opened with an
outburst of strength. The first sale
OF Radio corporation new was a

l ID, and Anaconda copper opened
with a block of 10000 shares at 154
ESS up 3-8. Montgomery-Ward
C<hed an initial gain of 3 So,
Cfnysler 2 3-8 and u. S. steel COM
mon 2, while gains of a point or
more were recorded by a flock of
ktners including American Can,
packard Motors, Bethlehem Steel
end National Cash Register.
Retention of the 5 per cent re-
discount rate by the Boston Fed
eral Reserve Bank, coupled with a
rather widespread speculative be-
lief that no change would be made
an the New York rate after the
close OF today'S market, stimulated
bullish activity.
Radio issues were again the spec
tacular features. The old stock,
which sold as low as 85 IA last
year, scared 81 ga points to a new
high record at 489. and the new
stock moved up 3 IL points to a
new top at 81 IL.
Johns Manville, in which j. P.
Morgan & Co. are reported to have
a large interest, ran up nearly 5
points and Goodyear Rubber and
National Cash Register each sold
3 points higher.
President Hoover's decision not
to sanction any leases OF
government oil lands without COLI
gressional approval was construed
as a. indication of a broad con-
S~ervation policy on the part of the
new administration, and brought
fresh buying into the oil shares. A
block of 10000 Barnsdall A chang
