INTENSE SEARCH
CONDUCTED FOR
FOLSOM CONVICT

FOLSOM PRISON, March -, U.p)
Another manhunt for an escaped
convict was being conducted in the
rugged American River country
near the prison here today.
Every available prison guard was
turned out to hunt for j. G. Barrett,
81, Los Angeles convict who dis
appeared yesterday evening from
the "Lieutenant's Gang" working
on five acre stretch of decomposed
rock within the prison walls. Two
years ago Barrett confessed" to
murder Of William Desmond Taylor
in Hollywood.
Warden Court Smith ordered the
search to begin first inside the pri,
son walls, in the belief that Barrett
had dug himself hole in the rock,
which was covered by his compan-
ions.
The search lasted all night, aided
by powerful searchights which
swept the entire prison grounds. 1t
continued this morning both inside
and outside the grounds. Warden
Smith pointed out that several years
ago group of prisoners managed
to hide out for nearly five days in
an attempted escape.
\ general lookup" was ordered
by the warden, and all convicts will
be kept in their cells until Barrett
has been successful.

BRITISH LABOR
PARTY RETAINS
HOUSE CONTROL

LONDON, Mar. -. U.H-The
British labor government, defeated
for he first time since it went into
power last June, will continue to
hold office, but with what its op-
ponnts consider Diminished pres
tige"
Rather than make an issue of the
coal bill, the government will ac-
cept the amendment as it was passed
by the combined conservative and
liberal forces yesterday.
The house of commons last night
was the scene of the widest excite
ment in months. Announcement of
the adverse vote was greeted with
cheers, the waving of paper, and
cries of "Resign! Resign!"
In the midst of the uproar, Stan
ley Baldwin, former conservative
premier, arose and asked Mae Donald
point blank whether he intended to
continue with his bill.
81 am amazed at the question:"
Mae Donald replied. "The honorable
Gentleman, two days hence, will
have an opportunity to move for a
vote of censure. | shall be glad to
accommodate him by suggesting that
if he should make the vote of censure
general, we accept the decision, but
as far as this division is concerned,
the vote was on a provision which
was optional from beginning to end.

Claudius Huston denied before the

tee today reports that he has been
active in Muscle Shoals lobbying
since his appointment as chairman

were. Senator Carawav criticized the
witness for not trying to locate the
records before appearing before the

to make such inquiry, but he de-
nicd q charge by Caraway that he
was not interested in helping the
committee get the true facts in con
necton with the funds.

LOS ANGELES, Mar. l2.-U.P)-
The state law limiting the wastage
If natural gas to a certain ration
for every barrel Of oil produced was
held constitutional in ruling of
Superior Judge William Hazlett to-
day.
The jurist's decision was con.
tanned in 20c word opinion which
held against Santa Fc Springs field
operators who, in contesting the
right OF the state to bring injunc-
tion suits against them, questioned
the constitutionality of the legisla-
lative act.
Judge Hazlett did not set gas-oil
ratio, declaring that such ratio
would have to depend upon evidence
presented in suits against operators
in individual fields
The iurist did not rule on other
Thases of the act. lie said there was
no occasion to give an opinion on
the powers of the state supervisor of
oil fields since no question had arisen
regarding the constitutionality Of a
state supervisor.
immediately after he handed down
his decision, Judge Hazlett ordered
that the trial of the injunction suit
against the Santa Fe Springs ope-
rators proceed at : p. m. today.

M'Callum Decides
To Break Silence

His bravado and silence breaking
down at last, Jack McCallum, ar
rested with John Casey for the serv-
ice station holdup at Imperial Sun
day night, made a statement to Dep
uty Sheriff Tom Sharp this morn
ing in which he stated the details
of the crime practically the same as
those given by Casey to Sharp yes
terday. He said that he realized
that life of crime does not pay and
he was now ready to give the Off
GERS what information they needed
to clear up, not only the Imperial
crime but several Others as well.
McCallum directed officers where
thev could find the rest Of the money
which had been hidden in the ear
when it was seen that the quartette
was about to be apprehended by Off
GERS. SHARP went to the spot desig-
mated and found $ll hidden away
in the seat lining.
He further revealed that instead
of five men robbed at Imperial as
stated at first by Casey, there were
seven, leading the officers to the
conclusion that the other two men
were 50 frightened by their expert
ence that they failed to tell about
it.
Both men were arraigned yester-
dav morning and were placed under
$40 900 bonds each. Their case will
come up for trial within a few days.
