AGED WEALTHY WOMAN
ON TRIAL FOR MURDER
State Accuses Widow of Staying

By United Press


By United Press
NOGALES, Ariz., Sept. 14.-Mrs.
Louise F. Marshall, stopped and
feeble woman Of 70, accustomed to
wealth and social position since
childhood, went on trial today on
a charge of having murdered
Thomas K. Marshall, 40, her hus-

Marshall was shot April IS while
sleeping at his Tuscon home. He
died May % in Los Angeles hos
pital where his wife sent him for
an operation for removal of one of
the four bullets the state contends
she shot into him in a jealous rage.
Most of the evidence against Mrs.
Marshall was obtained by the state
from Marshall while he was on his
deathbed. The wounded man re-
fused, however, to sign any COM
plant against his wife.
According to the story. Marshall
told William Hall, Pima county at

"ATOBODY ever won any votes
IN playing with the Chamber of
Commerce." is one of the old, old
axioms of indianapolis politics.
In fact, the county council has
alienated thousands of votes from
it's own party, the Democratic, by
futilely attempting to please the
commerce body, and the real result
has been that no one is satisfied.
Studying the entire situation from
the political standpoint, and not
that of the dire need for tax reduc-
ton, which everyone admits to be
true, poor, nay, bad, politics has
been played by the council.
After weeks of effort, study, and
loud talk, the council succeeded in
slashing-if that can be the word
the tax rate one-half cent.
To accomplish this, labor, the
farmer, the banker and the reform
er have all been fouted, and the
members of their own party are
vowing vengeance.
+ n
Abolition of the road patrol can
be charged as really criminal.
Not that the road patrol ever
captured an important criminal or
uncovered O. major crime.
But the very fact that such po-
lice branch did exist exercised a
psychological and intimidating eff
feet upon would-be law violators.
To the farmers on lone highways,
it was the symbol of law and order.
With the use of the radio
equipped automobiles, the mobility
and usefulness of this patrol was
increased 1000 per cent and bank
ers depended upon it.
Whether one holds with or against
the Anti-Saloon League, it is q
fact that the patrol had Salutary
effect in controlling bootleggers and
hi-jackers.
Whoever be the sheriff or what
ever be the party, the ratrol should
be maintained, is the demand of
public opinion.
Naturally all of these organiza-
tions feel intensely bitter towards
those responsible for abolition of
their protection.
In this case it is a Democratic
county council
What the political effect will be
is, of course, at present, unknown.
But council members will feel the
effect in the 1882 primary.
It's true that no one can please
everybody-but, as the political rule
book says, IF you want to win votes
in this county, the best group to dis
regard is the Chamber of Com
merce."

y
Letter to Tax Board.
Expressing the view that mo cut
should be made which would inn
pair the efficiency Of our teaching
staff or require the elimination of
such valuable departments as free
kindergartens, vocational training
and free night schools" Leo M.
Rappaport, prominent Indianapolis
attorney, has written q letter to
the state tax board giving his views
on the school city tax rate.
The state board will hear re-
monstrances on the school budget
Tuesday morning.
Rappaport pointed out that the
present school board is composed
of persons who were drafted" and
did not seek the Office.
ct would be poor policy to de-
stroy any of these departments to-
day merely for the purpose of saw
ing the taxpayers a few cents on
the dollar, when a establishment
would be more costly than the
amount which might be saved
presently"
