MOBILE, Ala, June 3D.
Indiana's request for extra
dition of Harold Herbert
Schroeder on arson charges
in the Indianapolis torch car
mystery, was granted today
by Governor Bibb Graves at
Montgomery.
Governor Graves signed the pa
pers when they we're presented by
Sheriff George Winkler Of Indian
apolis and Sheriff Winkler was to
reach Mobile this afternoon to ask
an immediate court hearing on tho
extradition.
Fear Rescue Attempt
The action was taken when the
Indiana authorities here became
suspicious that Schroeder's con-
tinued delay in signing extradition
waivers was play for time in or
der to permit friends to organize
rescue, either by legal means or by
actual force.
After Schroeder promised Friday
night to sign extradition waivers at
noon Saturday, he refused to DO
so. He promised anew to sign
waivers during the afternoon and
again baked.
He did not demand exaradition
hearings, but merely delayed his
consent, declaring Il have business
I believe 1 should stay here awhile
to take care Of"
He dickered with Sheriff George
Winkler at noon Saturday, promis-
ing to sign the waivers If permitted
to remain in Mobile until Monday.
Again Fails on Promise
Again he failed to carry out his
promise and indianapolis investiga-
tors, planning to return Schroeder
to indianapolis by automobile, to-
day took precautions against his
rescue by friends during the trip
north.
Extradition hearings will be held
this afternoon or Tuesday morning.
Schroeder'S object in seeking the
delays was a puzzle to authorities
At all times he has expressed willie
ingness to return to Indianapolis
but has broken repeated promises to-
sign eXtradition waivers.
That Schroeder has friends who
might attempt his rescue has been
indicated by several facts. A garage
man who captured Schroeder hiding
in weeds in vacant lot at Mobile
Friday afternoon was threatened
with violence over the telephone for
his act. The man speaking gave
the name "NdacMahon."
r. A. MacMahon, Schroeder's
radiator shop foreman, whose for
mer activities in Detroit are being
investigated, denied making the call.
Schroeder, after his arrest, claimed
he returned to Mobile to protect his
wife from miStreatment at the hands

That's My Story"
That's my story and I'll std
it," Schroeder told questioners wlier
his claims that he picked up hitch
hiker near Indianapolis, and that
the man was killed when Schroe-
der's automobile went into a ditch
west of Terre Haute the night OF
May &c. was questioned
He claims he drove back toward
Indianapolis with the body at his
side, stopped his car on the High
School road and fired it, making his
way into Indianapolis where he re-
manned day. He then hitch hiked
back to Mobile, he claims.

shipments, u is probable that there will be a loss shown. Custom House records show pelts valued at about $1,6O0,O0O shipped during the year. This does not cover mail shipments nor include the annual seal take from the Pribilof Islands which will add some $2,0OO,O0O or more to that amount quoted. In 1928 fur shipments were worth $4,- 664,569. The main cauze of the decline was the restoration of pro lection of beaver. Beaver pelts ex- ported in 1928 were valued at $759, ,822, while last year the value was but little more than $25 5,00O.
 Wood Exports Gain
 In the industries of lesser inn portance, there was a gain in wood and timber, the shipments jumping from $68,O00 to $140,0O0; reindeer meat increased from SAP 500 70 $l40,O00; trophies and specimens from $12,000 to $l9,0OO.

THE KING OF KINGS"
 SHOWING, COLISEUM

Cecil B. DeMille's production, ."The King of Kings" was cordial ly received at the Coliseum The ater last night. The picture Justi- fies all the praise it has evoked. The feeling of the spectators was reverent delight. Awesome scenes of Christ's persecution and suffer ing drew tears of sympathy but III the last fifteen minutes the joy of those who beheld the Risen Lord and received His m essage was shared in by all. Never in the showing of historical plays are the thcatregoers so completely uplifted by transcendent emotion as in this viewing of The King of Kings"

Juneau we.ccned 1880 at mid night in regular old fashioned style, with noise, etc, especially more vociferous theE in former years.
 The whistle of the Coast Guard cutter Unalga was "tied down" and continued so for perhaps 10 min- utes. This was the starter, Capt. Sainty, of the Princess Norah, tied up at the Admiral Line dock, put the whistle of the Canadian liner in action, then other craft along the waterfront joined in.
 Up town. automobile horns were honked, pistol shots dipped on the air, bells rang and noise makers in general were released, especially at the Elks Hall where the annual Hi-Jinks was the big public event.
 Several churches held watch night meetings.
 Today started off cool and snap py with a bright sun shining. Many house parties are on this afternoon and evening. the theatres are giving good productions for the public and business is prac- tically suspended.
 This afternoon the annual Ma sonic reception. 2 to o'clock, is held in the Scottish Rite Temple.

Attractions At Theatres
"SYNCOPATTON" IS
 GREAT JAZZ PICTURE

Marking new era in film en- tertainment, "Syncopation, first of RKO's hundred per cent all-talkers, with Fred Warnings Pennsylvanians, burst from the screen of the Palace theatre in a veritable fountain of golden melody song and cackling dialogue to the huge delight of the crowds who attended its premier showing last night
 "Syncopation'' has been billed as an extravaganza by the producers, the first great musi-film review ever to be made, an effort to pro- duce what is actually full blown musical show in film form. And the result is a rousing, roaring success, making another step for ward in the realm of perfect enter tainment.
 "Syncopation, first of the new Radio pictures, is genuinely spark ling musi-comedy success. The stars sparkle, the jazz melodies of Fred Warnings famed Pennsylvan- ians Scintillate, the songs melt the heart and a number of them are real hits. In addition there are all the accountrements and em- bellishments of an extravaganza in the speciality numbers, the poppy dancers and the sparkling repartee.
 And just as you leave musical show humming the song hits so will you go away humming the haunt ing theme melody, I'll Always Be in Love With You" and some of the other original hits written for this show which include Jericho 7 DO Something" and others.
 Barbara Bennett and Bobby Wat son portray the leaving roles. 9th CTS who shine in the scintillating cast are Ian Hunter, Morton Dow ney, Osgood Perkins, Mackenzie Ward, verree Teasdale and Dorothy Lee.

The code of the underworld is fairly elastic. But there is one offence for which, regardless of the circumstances, the punishment is always death, death that comes swifter than almost any other man made retribution. That offence is known as "squealing." It is gen erally believed that it cost the life of Dot King, gay beauty of the Great White Way, six years ago. And now the police are proceeding on the theory that it may supply the motive for the mysterious death of yet another butterfly, Mrs Aurelia Fischer Dreyfus, who was killed by fall from the bal cony of the fashionable Potomac Boat Club, Ut the conclusion of dance held there on October 20 last. Mrs. Dreyfus, it has been revealed, was an intimate of Dot

fence and then buzz of comment and gossip. For, despite Dots ef- forts at secrecy, it was known that a fortune was being lavished on her by 9 famous millionaire.
 Was Mrs. Dreyfus, the mysteri- ous blonde," key figure in the alibi of Albers Guimares, who was arrested as a suspect in the mur- der of Dot King, found in bed in Fifty seventh street apartment, with bottle of chloroform at he., side, and her jewels missing? It will be recalled that an Edmund Guimares' roommate, and an unknown blonde supported the alibi offered by Guimares and he was subsequently, released. Me Brien refused to reveal the name of the "blonde" then implicated on the ground that Git would break up her home life" It has since been learned that at that time Mrs. Dreyfus was the wife of Her bert Dreyfas, prominent New

terization is H. B. Warner in the rcle of Jesus of Nazareth, first DOT trayed as the artisan Healer in Galilee, next as the Divine Man Who cleansed the Temple, finally identified by His disciples and by the centurion who saw Him dying cn the Cross. MT. Warner acts the greatest of historical roles with fine reverence and sympathy and with a humanness not devoid of glints of humor.
 Ernest Terrence is wonderful St. Peter, while Joseph Schildkraut contributes a remarkable study of Judas who betrays his Master for thirty pieces of silver. Set against the portrayal of the Divine Man by Warner are two powerful worldly characters, the High Priest Gaia phas, portrayed by Rudolph Schild- kraut, and the Roman Governor Pilate, enacted by Victor Varconi
 One must go through a long ros- ter to summarize the playing of the hundreds of capable actors from William Boyd as Simon, who bore the Savior's Cross to Montagu Love, the stern Roman centurion, and from George Siegmann as the out law Rarabbas to the courtly Sam de Grasse as the Pharisee, or to the little boy and girl, portrayed by M Moore and Muriel MacCor- mac, who were cured by the Healer.
 Among the women, Jacqueline Lcgan's splendid characterization of Mary Magdalene stands out as one of the greater pieces of acting in the films of this era. Dorothy Cummings as the Holy Mother, Ma jel Coleman as the wife of Pilate, and Julia Faye and Josephine Nor man as Martha and Mary of Be- thany, contribute worthy portrayals.

 During that time he said, Cali fornia peace officers have arrest ed only eight girls whose alleged crimes were considered of suffi- cient seriousness to warrant re- ports to the State Government For the same period in 1928 twen- ty were arrested.

England served only to pave the way President Hoover had charted toward the London naval barley and, for the first time, had brought G British prime minister and an American president into round table discussions of common problems and aims.
 Marking the more hopeful out look of peace plans, former Secre- tary Kellogg and his vis-a-vis, Bri- and of France, were received abroad with highest honors for their joint labcrs in erection of the universal peace pact.
 Both Italy and France had been won to participation in the London naval barley, despite their refusal to take that course two years before at President Coolidge's invitation.
 Thus, at the New Year, the most active phases of Americas inter national dealings were those aimed at world peace.
 Still ahead lay the many and diff ficult questions that might arise from external aspects of new American farm relief or tariff legis- lation; but in none of these lay war threats or a challenge to America's will to live at peace with all peoples.

Since then the couple have been frequently seen together, although they did not marry after the decree was granted. It was with McBrien that Mrs. Dreyfus spent her last days in Washington, visiting her family: Q visit that was terminated by her sudden death.
 According to affidavits, sworn by the family of Mrs. Dreyfus, she is said to have frequently stated that she was forced to make mis- statements in the testimony offered by her in support of the alibi of Guimares. And individual mem bcrs of her family say that she had acquainted them with the real facts. If the police can establish that Mrs. Dreyfus met her death for squealing, they may yet estab- lish the motive and find the slaysy of Dot King.

REFERENDUM MEASURE

Ten years ago the people of
Montana authorized the making
of an annual levy Of IL mills for
the support of the four teaching
units of the University of Mon
tana for a period Of ten years.
Automatically it expires this year,
and must be replaced.
1t takes this liz mill levy and
almost n mill of the two mills
levied for the general conduct of
the state government to defray
the expenses of the now six teach
ing units of the University of
Montana, at Missoula, Butte, Dill
Ion, Bozeman, Billings and Havre,
and their auxiliary activities such
as the Extension service, the Agri-
cultural Experiment Stations, the
soil survey, the grain laboratory
and similar services which play a
most important part in the econ
omic, industrial, social and edu-
cational life of the state.
In the ten years since the levy
voted in 1920 college attend
ance in the state has increased
119 per cent and the number of
teaching units so per cent, while
