LOS ANGELES, April 9.-The
trial Of former District Attorney
asa Keyes on bribery conspiracy
charges attracted more attention
than any other event that followed
the collapse of the 100,000,00O
Julian Petroleum Corporation.
Keyes had been a trusted pubic
servant for twenty-five years, the
last six of which he served as dis
trict attorney. He had brilliantly
prosecuted scores Of noted cases
Even at the time the various Julian
cases were finding their way into
court, he was sending William Ed
ward Hickman to the gallows for
the murder of 12-year- Marion
Parker.
Work for Acquittal
But Oct. 30, 1928, the grand jury
indicted Reyes for assertedly &C
cepting money to work for acquittal
Of twelve defendants he was prose-
cutting for conspiracy to wreck the
Julian company.
Indicted with him we're Jacob
Berman, former Julian official and
a defendant in the conspiracy case
Ed Rosenberg, broker and another
defendant in the case, and Ben
Getzoff, a Spring street tailor.
The indictment followed a state
ment by Superior Judge William
Doran who claimed that convictions
would have been certain had not the
prosecution been dilatory.
Buron Fits, then lieutenant-goV-
ernor of California and district at
tornev-elect of Los Angeles, took
over the prosecution Of Reyes and
his codefendants.
Turned States Evidence
Fits first move was to persuade
Berman to turn states evidence In
return for immunity. The rest was
fairly easy.
with Berman telling Of passing
money and gifts to Reyes in Get
zoY's tailor shop and other wit
nesses substantiating his tesUl-
mony, the jury quickly was con-
WINGED.
A few hours after all evidence
was in, the jury found all de-
PENDANTS guilty.
Keyes carried an appeal to the
conviction and remained in county
iail for a year until the higher
court upheld the verdict OF the
trial court.
He then went to San Quentin
penitentiary, where he had sent
thousands Of criminals. to begin
serving a term Of from one to four
teen years. Rosenberg went TO
prison, too.
Getzoff, convicted with Reyes
and Rosenberg, was paroled when
he turned states evidence against
Harold (Buddy) Davis, Keyes' cher
deputy.
Getzoff told Of paying money TO
Davis In the same case and DAVIS
was ordered to follow his former
superior to San Quentin

SAFER FILM IS IN USE

WITH INC|T|NG RIOT
LindSey'S Defense TO Be Con.
tention That Churchman
Caused Trouble.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December l0.-Ben B.
Lindsey plans to heap upon Bishop
William T. Manning the blame for last
Sundays disturbance when he goes to
trial Friday.
Lindsey disclosed today that in de-
Tending himself on disorderly conduct
charge he would contend that the
bishop melted riot in the Cathedral of
st. John the Divine.
Bishop Manning" he said "willfully
and without cause provoked breach of
the peace by slandering me in the pull
pit and trying to make his clergy black
and me blacker.
Bishop Manning's false statement
about me and what I stand for not
only incited me to do what / did but
1t infiamed the mob spirit in his own
congregation, so that 1 was very for
tunate to escape the honor of being
burned at the stake or lynched at the
cathedral"
The bishop declined to comment on
this line of defense or to say whether
he would be represented by counsel at
the trial to which he has been sub
poenaed as a witness for the defense
The split among Episcopal clergymen
over the controversy opened wider as
the Rev; DR.; Bernard Iddings Bell, pro-
lessor OF religion at Columbia Univer-
sity, resigned from the New York
Churchmens Association
DR.. Bell said that the association was
engaged in bishop batting" and that
Lindsey's Views were VIGOROUSLY un-
scientific, exaggerated and in the worst
sense OF the word, journalistic"

DOAK TO SEEK END
OF TEXTILE STRIKE
Arbitration Plan of New La
Dor Secretary-Seeks Five
Day Week.

A frm believer in arbitration as Z
means of settling labor disputes, VIII
liam N. Doak, new Secretary of Labor
duties to seek an early end to the
textile strike in Danville, Va.
Another major objective to which
he will bend his efforts, he revealed
Is establishment OF the fve-day week
for the Nations workers.
While he can do nothing more TO-
ward attainment of the shorter week
than recommend it to Congress, he
explained on taking Office late yester-
day, he plans q more direct method
Of attack on the labor troubles down
in Virginia.
Authorized by law to act as mediator
In labor disputes and to name con-
ciliators, Secretary Doak "at the first
opportunity will use his good Offices
toward a prompt and peaceful settle
ment of the Danville controversy.
I'm my opinion" the Secretary said
in a formal statement to the press
there never was or will there be any
labor dispute that could not or cannot
be settled through negotiation without
resort to conflict, that is If the parties
approach their problems in the proper
spirit. This conviction is based on
more than 20 years experience as a
representative of employees, without hay
ing actually to engage in labor warfare" !"
AS for the five-day week, Secretary
Doak disclosed that he had practiced
it in his rail brotherhood Office here
for a number Of years. Little Is &C.
complished by having employees work
half a day Saturday, he said, and
therefore he found 1t advisable to let
them off the entire day.
However, he pointed out, the matter
of f1ve-day week is one for Congress
to consider and work out, in so far as
hours Of Government employees are con-
cerned, ct least.
Congress, incidentally, already has
moved to bring about five-day week
for Federal workers. A bill proposed
by Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Massa-
chusetts would enforce the shorter week
in Government departments, as a means
of relieving unemployment.

SAYS BUILDING INDUSTRY

PHILADELPHIA, December l0.-A
central agency through which the vari-
Gus organizations in the building in
dustry could coordinate their problems
was advocated last night by Secretary
of Commerce Robert P. Lamont in ad-
dressing the Philadelphia Building Con-
greSs.
I'm the hands of business men," Sec
retary Lamont said, such a reorgani-
zation could be brought about without
destroying any existing useful agency.
THE construction industry is some
times accused of being inef1cient. If it
Is, 1t will remain so as long as the in
dustry, through federation or Joint ac-
ton, fails to confer and adjust differ
ences and to iron out problems in con-
ferences together. Without united con-
troll, other methods must be devised to
make the industry more eficient."

Paris Papers Play Scandal
Features as Laval Tries

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, December 10. - Uneasiness
and uncertainty as to what may de-
velop from investigation Of the Oustric
Bank failure appeared today to be in
fiuencing the course Of events in the
efforts Of Pierre Laval to form new
cabinet, but the Senator seemed deter
mined to form government no matter
what happened.
Today he continued to stand by his
"old friend" Andre Tardieu, despite
the opposition Of the radical Socialists,
and 1t was not likely he would announce
his list Of cabinet members before to-
morrow.
Subject Given Prominence.
The Oustric failure and the rumors of
scandal which accompanied it are TAX
ing a prominent position in the politi-
cal situation because of accusations in
the radical Socialist newspapers that
Raoul Peret, the former minister Of
justice in Tardieus cabinet. received
regular payments from the OuStric
company between January and Octo-
Der, 1927.
The same papers charge that Rene
Desnard, the former Ambassador to
Rome, received money from the Oustric
interests in payment for his services in
listing Oustric stocks on the Paris Ex-
change. These charges are to be in
vestigated by a parliamentary COM
mission.
Laval saw former Premier Herriot
this morning and offered the radicals
the portfolios of finance, agriculture,
navy and the colonies as we'll as two
undersecretaries of state. The offer
was rejected by the radical leaders.
War on Tardieu Charged.
The newspaper Midi today sum-
married the situation by alleging that
opposition groups in both houses are
engaged in q "merciless war" against
Tardieu on the ground that Tardieu
protected Perst in the Oustric affair.
There is beginning to be some talk
Of dissolution of Parliament as the only
way out of the deadlock, but this step
has not been taken during the life of
the third republic and few politicians
would support it.
M. Laval already has consulted about
40 Senators and Deputies in his efforts
to build q cabinet.
