.DRYS STRESSCASE
IN MURDER TRIAL
Drama Tending to Show Evils
of Liquor Presented at
Calvary Church.

Intent upon arousing public senti-
ment in support of law observance, the
Committee of 500 for Law Observance
and Law Enforcement presented a
dramatization of an Iowa murder trial

At the conclusion of an interesting
presentation of evidence In a case in
which youth, Frank Lloyd. killed his
best friend in a drunken brawl Rev
William s. Abernethy, pastor of the
church, who took the role of presiding
judge, translated jury's finding OF
guilty IN terms OF eight years impris-
| onment. ....
Following the trial he called before
the court the bootlegger whom testi-
mony identified as having sold whisky
TO young Lloyd. He denounced him as
a disgrace to human society, scum of
the earth" and revoked sentence pre-
viously suspended and sentenced him to
year in Jail after expressing regret
that he could not be more severe.
This was the high point of dramati-
zation in which "a Washingtonians, in
Guiding Mrs F. Scott Mcbride. wife of
the general superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League, and Capt Robert E.
Doyle, commanding the eighth police
precinct, had parts. Mrs. Mcbride had
the role OF chief witness against the
defendant and Capt. Doyle acted as
foreman of the jury.
Others who took part were Gus
Cerimele, as the bootlegger; o. G.
Christgau, prosecuting attorney; T. B.
Jervis, defense attorney: David A. Hart,
coroner; Merle Van Kirk, defendant;
Miss Laura Lindley, widow of Earl
Wright, the man killed; Mrs. Orrel
Moody, mother Of the defendant:
Clarence M. Kiefer. court reporter;

Mccarthy, sheriff
The jury was composed Of men and
women drawn from various church and
temperance organizations in the District
as follows: E. M. Bryan, Ishmael Bur-
ton, A. Turner Cox, Percy Foster, G, C..
Harris, Bart Pigman, Mrs. N. M. Pol

Text of Russian Note
Nc by United States in Reminding Powers of Treaty
Obligations Is Regarded as Unfriendly Act

Of the Red army and frontier villages
robbing and violating a peaceful pop
ulation, causing thereby losses of lives
and property.
Despite frequent warnings through
the German government, these attacks
did not cease, but rather increased and
compelled the Soviet Far Eastern army
in the interests of defense, protection
Of the frontier and the peaceful popu-
lation, to take counter measures. Thus
the actions Of the Red army had due
considerations of self-defense and were
in no wise violations of any obligations
Of the Paris pact.
THAT cannot be said of armed forces
in Chinese territory and Chinese ports
of those powers who have applied to-
day to the Soviet Union with identical
declarations.
u. S. Move Held UnfriendIy.
1.-THE Soviet government states that
the Government of the United States
has addressed its declaration at a mo-
ment when the Soviet and Mukden
governments already had agreed to sew
eral conditions and were proceeding
with direct negotiations which would
make possible prompt settlement of the
conflict between the Soviet Union and
China.
IN view OF CLllS IdCC Tie ABOVE QeCld-
ration cannot but be considered unjuS-
tif1able pressure on the negotiations and
cannot therefore be taken as friendly
act.
THE Soviet government states fur
ther. that the Paris pact does not give
any single state or group of states the
function of protector of this pact. The
Soviet, at any rate, never expressed
consent that any states themselves or
by mutual consent should take upon
themselves such a right.
The Soviet government declares that
the Soviet Manchurian conflict can be
settled only by direct negotiations be-
tween the Soviet Union and China on
the basis Of conditions known to China
and already accepted by the Mukden
government, and that 1t cannot admit
interference Of any other party In these
negotiations or the conflict.
I'm conclusion the Soviet government
cannot forbear expressing amazenent
that the Government of the United
States, which by its own will has no
of1cial relations with the Soviet, deems
1t possible to apply to 1t with advice
and counsel"

CHINESE REPLY TO NOTES.
Nationalists Claim They Maintained
Peaceful Attitude.

Peaceful Attitude.
BY the Associated Press.
SHANGHAI. December 4.-The Ma
tionalist governments foreign ONCE at
Nanking announced, tonight that identic
replies had been dispatched to Wash
1ngton and London to notes of the
American and British Governments con-
cerning China'S obligations as a sigma
tory OF the Kellogg anti-war pact.
The foreign ONCE stated that the
reply sent to Washington said:
throughout the present dispute with
soviet Russia, the Nationalist govern
ment has maintained a peaceful at
titude, refraining from adoption of
hostile military actions except for self
projection as established facts attest.
Being consignatory to the treaty for
remuneration of war, the Nationalist
government circulated other signatories
OF the pact, August 8, 1929, declaring
tnat China would, apart from measures
OF self protection and defense of ter
r1tor1al sovereignty against external in
vasion. faithfully abide by the pact's
article two, and that she was ready at
any time within reasonable limits to
negotiate with the Soviet government
Tor settlement of the present dispute.
The Nationalist government has al
ways reposed implicit confidence in the
Aforesaid treaty and has desisted from
acting contrary to its spirit. It will
continue to adhere to its reiterated
policy"

Corporation Taxes High.
In asking that the corporation tax be
reduced l per cent the Secretary
pointed to statistics which he said
showed that corporations were taxed
24.46 per cent of their income; whereas
2,059, 900 individuals had an average
rate of taxation of 0.46 per cent.
THE number of individuals con-
tributing directly to the support of the
Federal Government through the Fed
eral income tax has been strictly
limited" the report said, "and of those
contributing the vast majority pay but
an insignificant amount at a very low
rate. OF 2,434, 900 individuals return
ing taxable income 2,059,000 returned
but $32,86l 900 Of income tax, while
375,000 individuals returned a net tax
of $1,l09,000000. The average rate of
tax on the net incomes of the 2O59, 900
individuals was 0.42 per cent, whereas
the million of individuals who owned
stock in corporations were that year
paying through corporations IL per
cent on the profits of the business en-
terprise in which they were sharehold-
ers." The figures were from a study
of the 1927 returns.
In 1927, the Secretary continued, COR
porations paid $5,786, 100000 in divi-
