M'Donald May Run as
Independent LabOrite

London, Oct. 5.-P-The possibilit6
that Prime Minister Ramsay Mac
Donald would campaign as an indie
pendent labor candidate from his
present constituency dominated dis
cussion Monday Of the impending
general election.
Two branches of the Seaham har-
Dor labor party-Murton miners
Lodge and Murton-have decided to
re-nominate Mr.. Macdonald from
that division, accepting the prime
ministers offer to run If invited and
challenging the local executives in
tention to support another candidate.
Sir John Simon, new convert to
free trade, widened the breach in the
liberal party over the weekend by
issuing a manifesto which said his
group in parliament, numbering about
Is members, was forming a new or
ganization to support the prime min
lister on any basis.
It was understood he would head
q new party to be known probably as
the national liberals party" and
would start active campaigning in
few days.

ATTEMPT TO SOFTEN

Hoover Committee Sits Sug.
gestions For Meeting
Problem in Nation

Washington, Oct. e(R-Ways best
to soften winters blows on jobless and
homeless Americans formed Mondays
special problem of President Hoov-
er's relief organization.
A committee headed by Fred G
Croxton sifted the suggestions on
how to administer relief which have
deluged headquarters since Walter s
Clifford was named to cope with un-
employment difficulties.
Outstanding among proposals was
the farm boards offer to release
from its huge holdings all the wheat
and cotton needed to feed and clothe
the needy. Cash at market prices OF
deferred payments were decreed &C.
ceptable terms from relief agencies.
Next, the millerS' national fedora
ton volunteered to grind such whea:
at cost.
Though the presidents organiza-
ton handles no funds and does not
dispense relief directly, 1t is support
ing and co-ordinating national az.
encies which do.
From the United States Chambe,
Of Commerce came assurances that
funds for adequate care Of all such
cases Of distress will be forthsom.
Ing" This business organization had
just submitted for approval Of its ma
tion-wide membership q committee
report on means Of securing business
and employment stability.
Senator Robert M. La Toilette Of
Wisconsin is confident, he said, Sun.
day, that congress would make some
provision for federal unemployment
relief at its next session.
Opposition to the federal relief"
he said, ION the grounds that 1t con
stitutes the dole does not alter the
situation. The fact is that millions,
willing to work, a not find Jobs,
County and municipal treasures are
now carrying more Of a load than
they can bear"

SAY BABY KILLER
HELD IN new YORK
Vincent Coll, Known as Leader
Of Mob Is Accused
Of Staying

New York, Oct. 5 -(P)- Vincsn,
Coll and four members of his gang
arrested in a roundup in Manhattan
all have been identified as the gun
mel who occupied the automobile
from which bullets swept a Harlem
street July %, killing n child ano
wounding four others, Inspector Johr
J. Sullivan announced Monday.
These prisoners are the baby kill
ers,' Inspector Sullivan said, as the
five mounted the brightly lighted
platform in the police lineup.
They are responsible for the shoot
ing in East 107th Street. We have
information each and every one OF
them was in the automobile at the
time Of the killing.
Police Are Secretive
Police refused to say where they
got their information because of dan
ger to the informant.
Frank Giordano actually did the
shooting, Inspector Sullivan said.
Giorando was arrested in an apart
ment Sunday several hours before
Coll and Dominick Odierno were
captured with two girls in q West
Side hotel.
In raids here and at Averill Park,
N. Y. in which 300 policemen par
ticipated, the entire Coll mob-knOWn
to police as a crew of r%acketeers, mus
clemen and roWdies-waS captured
The gangsters at Averill Park resist
ed arrest with firearms but were sub
dued without casualties.
Coll, a 2~3-year-old desperate blamed
for many crimes but consistently
elusive, offered no resistance when
detectives surprised him at a hotel
where ne was registered under all
alias, His brown hair had been dyed
black and he had grown a mustache
When the formal charge OF muir
dering flve-year-old Michael Ven
galli last July % was read to him at
the police station. he denied it. He
said he had been out of town all
summer, returning only Friday.
Police Commissioner Mulrooney,
however. said there was no mistake.
Witnesses, he said, had identified Coll
positively as of the men in the
automobile from which poured bullets
that raked the Little Italy" street on
which children were at play. The
Vengalli boy was killed and four of
his playmates were wounded. One of
them was tumbled from a baby car
riage. The gunfire was meant for a
man lounging in q doorway. Though
so shots were fired, the mar was UNI
hurt.
Coll had $4,000 In his pocket. Sew
eral other members of his gang each
had $1,000 or mor in currency.
The murder Friday of Joe Mullins
a Dutch" Schultz gangSter-and the
bombing Of a garage a few hours later
provided the clue which shared Coll
The number on the license plates OF
the car used by Mullins slayers ano
on the a used by the garage
bombers was obtained. Thus it wa.
discovered the same machine was
used in both crimes.

Two years Of continued business
success followed, then on Sept. 30
1927. the banker became ambassador
to Mexico, first resigning his part
nership In the Morgan concern.
He left Mexico Sept. II, 1880.
After g brief rest, Morrow plunged
into the senatorial election campaign
In New Jersey. He had been selected
for the republican nomination
months before at q primary which
saw him roll up q plurality Of more
than 100000 votes over two oppon-
ents, the big victory being attributed
mainly to his stand against continu-
alton Of the prohibition experiment
in the United States.
Foe Of Prohibition
In that pronouncement he advo-
Gated repeal Of the 18th amendment.
He also proposed that control Of the
liquor business should be entrusted
to the individual states. The popular
response to this platform had i'm
mediate repercussions in all parts Of
the country, and was 50 overwhelm-
ing that 1t aroused hopes abroad Of
an early return of America to the
worlds liquor market list.
Morrow's election in Nov. 1890, en-
titled him to add the description
statesman" to the list Of lawyer,
banker, diplomat" which had epitom-
lied his earlier vacations. It came by
a majority Of nearly 100000 in q
democratic year and again focused
attention on him. Talk Of him Is
probable presidential timber, which
had started after his primary sue
vess, was revived, but he never took
it seriously.
Elizabeth, Anne, Dwight, Jr., and
Constance were born to MI. and Mrs.
Morrow. Anne Is the wife Of Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh.

liam J. Bryan, was to start out now
preaching q larger volume Of money
! some of these poor deluded Great
| ures-like those who fought him then
with SO many patches on their
clothes that could not tell what
color the original cloth was-wouid
60 out and work overtime, yelling
their heads off for good honest
money, and the gold standard and,
above all else, q dollar that would so

and especially the that would 60
abroad. I may be poorly constituted
and not well equipped in my up
per story, but II I am touchy about
one thing more than another it IS
about the locality Of my dollar when
I want 1t. And, believe me, I am
with 1t like I am with my dog. When
I call him I would much prefer that
he come up gently wagging his tail
than to hear that he had Just gone
to Europe.
A very intelligent gentleman who
writes for the Saturday Evening Post
wrote an article last week In which
he practically said that all we can
do to help business along Is to be
more exacting In our tastes in dif-
ferent designs and models. In other
words, not to use the same auto too
long. but to buy oftener: and then
he went on to decry overproduction
in all lines and wondered why 1t was
that, while the banks were fairly
groaning from fullness, the manu-
facturers had on hand two-thirds Of
their output.
Money Is In Europe
Would you believe that, simple as
is the writer, he can see through that
problem. There Is so little real money
in the country-most Of it being over
in Europe trying to establish the
blessed gold standard-and the prices
of all manufactured goods SO high,
that by the time the consumer has
bought one-third Of the manufac-
tured goods he is out Of money and
the manufacturer has all the money
and two-thirds Of his goods. Yet he
is so dense th:t he wonders why he
has no more customers. Isn't that
easy? Gould the blind man, though
a fool, make any greater mistake?
But, says the manufacturer, you can

buy on time. He has overlooked the
fact that we have exhausted on,
security a. well as our money. Il
we must get along with q per capita
Of $50. then let the manufactures
and jobber put his prices down t.
where we can buy all the year around
for that $50.
In 1908, long before the Interna-
tional Harvester company came into
existence and when there was vet the
Deering, Mccormick, Milwaukee and
Plano grain binders made and
bought, the writer was informed by
one who knew that 1t cost $37.75 to
make q Deering grain binder, all
ready for the farmer to hitch to.
At that time this binder cost at re-
tail. $l25.
Wants Sherman Law Retained
Now bear in mind this was before
the day of the great efficiency Of the
International Harvester Co. Labor
at that time vas not as high as now.
but I do not believe there was much
difference in the price Of the raw
material that went into the ~construc.
ton Of the machine: so that I be-
lieve, taking into consideration the
fact that the International Harvester
company has 50 much better equip
ment for making such machines and
that 1t can make them 20 much
cheaper now than then. I do not be.
lieve 1t costs them any more now
to make q binder than 1t did then.
Despite that fact, the farmer is re-
quired to pay twice as much for his
binder. Why is that? You tell me,
and then I win guess. Despite that
fact some are asking that the COM
Ing congress repeal the Sherman
antitrust law. What would we have
II we were absolutely at the mercy Of
the trusts and combines? This law
as it is, is but very little in the way
Of these combines, for the courts
usually find 1t Is necessary for great
er efficiency that the combine be
made.
God forbid that the day will ever
come when we are at the mercy of
