HAWAII K|DNAP
 KILLER DOOMED

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-The su- preme court today denied the pc- tition of Yutaka Fukunaga, young Japanese under sentence of death, for the murder of ten-year-old George Gill Jamieson in 1928, in Hawaii's Leopold and Loeb case, . for writ of review.
 Fukunaga's lawyers contended ir- regularity in permitting a record of his attempted guilty plea to be in- troduced.
 The case attracted worldwide at- tention. Fukunaga, in his confes- sion, said he studied the Leopold Loeb case before he kidnapped Jam- ieson, son of a banker. He killed the boy and then attempted to col lect ransom money. Circumstances of the case were strikingly similar to the Hickman Kidnapping and mur- der in California.

Making his first trip to Alaska since his recent appointment as general manager of the Alaska steamship Company, T. c. Cante- low arrived here today on the steamer Northwestern He will remain here until Saturday re- turning then via Vancouver to his headquarters in Seattle.
 My visit at this time is merely one of routine inspection, to get ac- quainted with the personnel of the various agencies and learn some thing of the problems of the Sev- eral ports in Southeast Alaska, y MT.

LATEST PUBLIC WORD:
 NATION IS SOUND

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-After assessing all effects of shocks ad- ministered by the stock market during the past few days, exper- fenced business men associated in the administration of the National Government are a unit in the de- claration that fundamentally, com- mcrce, industry and finance will emerge substantially undisturbed.
 The latest public word is given by Julius Klein, Assistant Secre- tary of Commerce and has been echoed and re-echoed by officials of Cabinet rank since President Hoover briefly outlined that it was the growth of income and na- tional advance and we'll being of its business men, it's wage earners and it's farmers during the recent years and has not been due to temporary fleeting causes
 Klein said Tt has been a def mite upward trend. Basically our normal purchasing power has not been impaired, regardless of the Iregrettable speculative uncertain ties. The industrial and commer- cial structure of the Nation is sound"

EASY DIVORCE DOESN'T HURT
 RUSS MORALS
So Declares Noted New York Lawyer-Says
 Women Exalted

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-Easy di- vorce in Russia by no means has proved provocative of immortality.
 Despite facile means of severing matrimonial bonds, the family per- sists as a sturdy unit. Children are treasured.
 These impressions, strikingly at variance with some propaganda, have just been brought from Rus sia by Albert Ottinger. formerly at torney general of the state of N w York and Republican candidate for governor last year.
 Whereas one might expect Rus sia to abound with ladies of easy virtue" owing to lax divorce laws, the contrary is the fact, Ottinger said in an interview. He contin- ued:
 Tt must be constantly borne in mind that Russia today is ruled rigidly by a minority fully as abso- lute as the regime of the late czar and his nobles.
 "These Communists while frank = ly acknowledging the strict dlscl- pline they exact, term it, a benevo- lent agency for development of 2 retarded people.
 They call this tyranny of ml- nority paternalism-I would call 1t maternalism, because the striking exaltation of womanhood, especially motherhood, was no parallel in tce world. except in America.
 For that reason, easy divorce, as provided by the new Russian sta- tutes, has no apparent harmful ef- feet upon the continuity Of fam ly life. Severe penalties are exacted upon those fathers who display a tendency to shirk moral duty.
 Heavy fines are administered whenever a merely frivolous we'd ding is revealed"
