guilty to a lesser charge than first degree murder.
 From Buffalo City hospital, where the former model of Henri Marchand, artist and husband of the dead woman, was taken when she collapsed yesterday. came encour- aging reports. Attaches there said she was sitting up in bed, but still was "very sick" They promised to have her in court this afternoon Eff humanly possible"
 Lila's trial has progressed to the point where counsel are ready 10 start summation. After the jury brings in verdict on the charge that she conspired to have Mrs. Marchand murdered because of her love for the artist, the state still must dispose of the charges against Mrs. Nancy Bowen, an aged Hitter ate squaw.
 It was Mrs. Bowen who confessed that she beat Mrs. Marchand with a hammer and strangled her with chloroform. Through an interpreter, the old Indian told how Lila had pictured Mrs. Marchand as witch" who must be killed before she spread death through the reser- vation where Nancy lived. At first Nancy had employed magic charms in an attempt to drive the life out of Mrs. Marchand. Failing in that, she started for the Marchand homo on the morning of March $, carry- ing basket containing magic earth, hammer and chloroform.
 Mrs. Marchand was playing the radio-a devils box which Nancy had never seen before-when the old Indian entered. The squaw wished to make certain that this was the "white witch" before she proceeded to the killing.
 Are you." she asked Mrs. Mar chand, naively, "a witch?"
 Carelessly, as if trying to humor the old Indian, Mrs. Marchand an- swered, Yes"
 So Nancy beat her to death, pour ed chloroform down her throat and was gratified to note that when the witch died the devils box" stopped shrieking. In the struggle Mrs. Marchand had knocked over and , smashed the radio.

Washington, April (UP)-The big parade of prominent prohibition witnesses before congressional con- drys oppose each other on three battle fronts.
 r. Scott Mcbride. uperintendent of the Anti-Saloon league, goes be- fore the house judiciary committee along with Dr. Clarence True Will son of the Methodist Board of Tenn perance, Prohibition and Public Morals to close the dry side of the prohibition hearings.
 John G. Raskob, chairman of the democratic national committee. has been called before the senate lobby committee for Friday to open the inquiry into expenditures of money and the use of influence here in be- half Of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. Mcbride and Wilson will follow him some time next week
 Attorney General Mitchell will ap- pear before the senate judiciary committee Monday on the Norris resolution proposing a senatorial h. vcstigation of the federal enforce ment unit
 To Dominate Houses The marked. activity on these three fronts is a further indication that prohibition vii be the domi- mating subject in both houses ot congress from now until adjourn mcnt in June. Then the wet and dry belligcrcnts will carry their de- bate to the political stump. The important step in the dcvel- opment of the wet fight was reached in the senate late yesterday wher Senators Willard Tydings, wet dem, ! ocrat of Maryland, submitted z

He was employed as a laborer by the city for a time.

Lawyers, he said, had disregarded the social issues involved and had lost themselves in the legal aspects.
 Massachusetts has been "a hotbed of wet activity" he said, from the | beginning of prohibition. Wet organ izations in that state, he said, stress ed the three issues of personal liber- ] ty the legality of placing the eight eenth amendment in the constitution and now the question of establish ing states rights to their own liquor laws.
 Cites Court Decisions | Allen cited several supreme court decisions on the subject of personal liberty, in which, he said, the in dividual right was subordinated to the good of the community.
 He referred to another decision which he asserted held no citizen had inherent right to sell liquor. Chairman Graham asked if these decisions did not discuss relations between the individual and the state rather than the federal government. The witness agreed, but quoted oth- CT decisions holding the federal gov crnments powers under prohibition were equal to those of the states.
 He quoted from a decision hand cd down by the late Chief Justice Taft in which it was held that pro- hibition was aimed at controlling drinking for the good of the com munity and that an obvious danger existed to the community if one per son were permitted to keep liquor for his own use.
 Tells of Mayflowcr Contract
 Allen said a reservation to obey only just and equal" laws was made in the "Mayhower contract" He challenged that any such com . pact could be charter Of indivil- ual liberty
 The witness asserted tho compact. signed aboard the Mayfowcr, was fostcrcd by rebcllious and mutinous spirits aboard who had patents to Northern Virginia and not New Eng land lands.
 The just and equal" laws which were passed under this compact, he said, included penalties for drunk cnncss and for excessive drinking Ill homes.
 i Later the Puritans, he said, pun ished "tippling for over half an hour or tipping at unreasonable times He asked if such rcgula- l IInblI I,o fringomcnt of personal liberty.
 Allen said the necessity for ab- stinencc was recognized in the army and on athletic teams and argued abstinence should be applied to the nation to protect the vitality and well being of all people.
 In conclusion he offered as the way out of this difficult situation strict enforcement by state and To- cal authorities instead of having the entire burden placed in the hand of "a horde of federal enforcement agents"

little children, would inhict hard ships upon housewives and would greatly add to the perpleXities of re- ligious and other institutions doing benevolent work
 Canon Chase, prominent New York clergyman, also filed a state ment. He asked for an immediate report of measures recommended by the presidents law enforcement com- mission, the prompt killing in com- mittee" of measures for repeal or modification of the eighteenth amendment, and for passage of leg islation authorizing congressional in- vestigation of "corrupt alliances" in the larger cities.
 He named New York. Philadel- phia and Chicago as cities where. he said, congressional investigation would "doubtless expose the corrupt alliance now existing between boot leggers, speakeasies and racketeers and prominent political leaders of both parties"
 Hoovcr's Election Cited
 "We contend" Canon Chase wrote, that the election of Presi- dent Hoover, notwithstanding other issues which were involved, was d clear mandate from the people to congress not to repeal the eigh- teenth amendment but to try to en force it."
 The statement submitted by Flu gene L. Crawford, general secretary of the board of temperance and social service of the Methodist Epis- copal church, South, expressed a desire that violators of the dry law be treated as rebels.
 "If smugslers and bootlcggers. or yachtsmen and high society people openly rebel against the prohibition law Crawfords statement read they must be treated exactly as rebels against any other law.
 The issue Is no longer the en- forcement of the prohibition law The issue is the maintenance of the constitutional government Rebels against constitutional government must be treated as rebels and made to under stand that even if they dc not like the prohibition law they cannot defy the government of the United States
 Outlines Boards Plan Crawford's statement outlined 2 1 plan of the board of temperance ant 1 social service. It embodied foul points as follows:
 First: Representing the genera l conference: This board hereby peti tons congress to vote for whatevei measures, money and men may b, necessary to secure effective cn forcement of the prohibition law.
 'Second: In the name of tn, general conference, we petition tha the law shall be administered by it friends.
 Third: We urge congress to pas such legislation as the president after investigation by commission 0 otherwise, may decide to be vita and necessary to make this enforce ment program effective, not only 10 the country at large, but 10 mak the capital city of the nation tn model city in respect to enforce | mcnt of law.

 Feared It Would Overly
 Yancey and his two companions, w. II. Alexander, pilot, and Zell Bouck, wireless operator. had spent the night at sea rather than risk overfying their tiny goal in the At- lantic. An offer of help was made by the steamship Lady Somers. bound for Halifax. Later advices said the Lady Somers had located the plane but had been advised that no aid was necessary.
 The steamship Lady Somers, bound for Halifax, established con- tact with the airplane. Shortly after midnight the Lady Somers wire lessed: Passed white light g p. m., 52 miles north of Bermuda.

 J. P. Hand, member of the house Of assembly and chairman of the Bermuda board of trade, sent wire less to Captain Armit of the Lady Somers thanking him, informing him that no ship was due at Bermuda and asking him to go 10 assistance of the plane. Later advices said the Lady Somers had located the plane and had been advised that no aid was necessary.
 Populace Excited The populacc and tourists here were greatly excited all day yester- day in the prospect of arrival of the plane from American mainland. Messages received after nightfall al layed fear aroused at its non-arrival ! that it had come to bad end in the sea. The welcome which would have been given the avators was considcrcd as merely postponed .un- | til today.
 Captain Yancey, one Of the most noted opponents of aerial navigation and himself a transatlantic fier. and his two companions, left North Beach, l.. l., yesterday at 9:59 a. m. They wasted an hours supply of their 230 gallons of gasoline in ivs fruitless attempts to get off the water, but finally were successful in rising and sailed away.
 Their plane was equipped with pontoons and in reasonably good weather could withstand the seas and keep afloat for week. They carried provisions for five days.
 Of Captain Yancey's two compan- ions, W. II. Alexander is a World War veteran of the Royal Flying corps. He acted as pilot on the flight. Zef Bouck is engineer and radio operator.
