the great noise being made,
and by the much advertisement
Of demands for repeal from
those who have always opposed
prohibition and who live in
our foreign cities and States.
"The mass Of our people, the
great majority of the citizens
of the United States, believe
in prohibition and in its power
to save men and elevate the
race. They know that, though
its administration has been too
much in the hands Of its
enemies, it has greatly reduced
the use Of liquor and done, and
is doing, much good through
out our land.
"Where it has mostly failed,
as In New York and Chicago,
it is because officials have been

parked car.
Mrs. Marian c. Stuart. ~, sis
ter Of Roy Smith. at whose home
In the 500 block, Hamilton st.
N. w. Campbell was q visitor on
the night OF the murder, came
forward last night to subStantiate
that part Of the alibi of the real
estate man.
The woman said that Campbell
arrived at the house sometime
between 1850 and o'clock on the
night Of the murder and remained
for more than an hour.
She said that she was i'll, but
that Campbell came into her room
to ask how she felt. He left,
she said, sometime after 8 or $3.50,
saying he was to call for his
stepson who was attending
scout meeting at Fourteenth
Street and Park Road.
Recalled the Date
Mrs. Stuart was certain Of the
date, she said, as the morning the
body Of the Navy clerk was
found she commented upon the
fact that Campbell had been
there the night before.
This was the first time in more
than a month that Campbell had
called at the home, she added.
Mrs. Stuart also said that she
has not been questioned by either
Cloth or Lieut.. Edward j. Kelly
since Campbell entered the case,
although she has been living
within a short distance of the
Virginia office of the realtor.
Her brother-in.law and sister
have moved to Piggott, Clay
county, Arkansas, where they will
be questioned and their deposi-
tions taken.
With the prosecution confident
that the key to the mystery is at
hand, Charles Henry Smith, Alex
andria a attorne y representing
Campbell said that after Cloth
has had an opportunity to uuizz
the .alibi witnesses he has located
that unless his client is liberated
he will seek a writ of nabeas
corpus.
Smith intends to leave for a
lengthy vacation next week and
said that he will force the au-
thoritieS to grant his client a
hearing and lay all evidence
against him before the court. He
expressed confidence that Camp
bell will be released before the
end Of this week.
Fields Clings to Theory
Sheriff Howard B. Fields of
Arlington county, said that he
believes Campbell knows a great
deal more than he has told, but
does not feel that he himself
had anything to do with the.
actual Staying.
The sheriff is still Of the
opinion that a woman is mixed
up in the case and that woman
shot and killed Mary Baker.
just where this Staying took
place has not been determined,
but Fields believes that when the
dead girls missing bloomers are
found the death scene will have
been established.

HARRIS RENEWS
LEAGUE COURT
SENATE WAR
Statement on Eve of Cam
paign Hints Shift Of Evil
sOnians" to Opposition

The campaign declaration oi
Senator william J. Harris, CD /.
Of Georgia, against all proposals
entangling the United States in
European affairs, today indicated
the Hoover Administration will
face q tremendous task next fall
in seeking American adherence
to the league court upon new and
modified terms.
The Harris statement, issued
on the eve Of his campaign for
denomination, was the first sign
that the WilSonian democrats OF
the South may bolt President
Hoover in the next league court
fight, even though they stood
staunchly behind President Cool
idge on the same issue.
Wants Reservations
Harris, a personal friend Of the
late President Woodrow Wilson
and generally classed as an "in-
ternationalist," announced he
would vote against American ad-
herence to the court unless the
reservations preserve the abso-
lutte independence and sovereignty
Of the United States"
His attitude was significant be-
cause It follows e declaration by
Senate" Royal s. Copeland, CD
of New York, that he, too, will
vote against the league court
on the so-called Root terms of
adherence. This split in the Demo
cratic Senate ranks will double
the Administrations difficulties,
since the old "irreconciliabIeh
bloc-which always has fought
league court and League Of Ma.
tions projectS-has been largely
composed of Republicans.
Deneen Lost on Court
The Republican Court ad-
hefentS meanwhile were shaken
when Senator Charles s. Deneen
CR) of Illinois lost his senatorial
toga in the Illinois primaries to
Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mccormick
largely on the Court issue. Deneen
said afterwards he had made a
political mistake in supporting
the Court.
The Georgian reviewed the
reservations, under which the
Senate once voted for American
adherence to the Court--the
reservations which were not ac-
ceptable to European powers. He
said these reservations make it
clear the United States will not
be required or expected to- in
trude upon, interfere with, or
entangle itself in the political
questions of policy or internal
administration of any foreign
state.
