FULL TEXT OF
POPE'S ADDRESS
GIVEN TO PUBLIC

VATICAN CITY, May 23. U.P) -
Pope Plus XI today issued the full
text of his encyclical on capital and
labor, a summary of which he read
in radio address on May Is.
The text, for the most part, de-
veloped the ideas given in the sum-
mary.
Sketching the history of the rela-
tions between capital and labor the
epcyclical said:
For a long time capital appro-
priated so much that it left the
worker barely sufficient amount
for existence. 1t was the change
less law that wealth belonged to
the rich and the workers must re-
main perpetually of the proletariat,
living a poor, miserable existence. 1t
is no wonder these false views have
been opposed"
The encyclical, considered the
most significant economic pro-
nouncement of the church since the
time of Leo XIII, calls for the re-
construction of the worlds entire
economic system to bring a more
equitable distribution of wealth be-
tween capital and labor.
The summary was given in an ad-
dress TO 1000 pilgrims of various ma
tionalities gathered to celebrate the
fortieth anniversary of Pope Leo's
famous encyclical on labor, "Rerum
Novarum." and set forth briefly the
principles expounded by the text.

WOMAN SOUGHT
AS WITNESS IN
DOUBLE SLAYINC
Intensive Search On For
June Taylor Said To Be
Clark's Friend.

LOS ANGELES, May %. dlp)-
Chief of Detectives Joe TAYLOR. in
charge of the police investigation
OF the slayings of Herbert Spencer
and Charles Crawford, left the CITY
today apparently on a mission con-
nected with the case.
At police headquarters it was ru-
mored that Taylor hoped to locate
June Taylor, %, attractive brunette
hotel owner of Los Angeles, a for
mer confidant of Albert Marco,
former Los Angeles vice controller.
now prisoner in San Quentin.
Police declared they had infor-
nation that Miss Taylor was close
to David H. Clark, 33, former dep
uty district attorney and candi-
date for municipal judge, who is
charged with the double murder.
Captain Taylor, it was said. be-
l1eves Miss Taylor can tell him the
whereabouts of Clark after Spencer
and Crawford were shot to death
last Wednesday in Crawfords Hol-
lywood office. Clark surrendered to
District Attorney Buron Fits
Thursday night. He denied the
murders but refused to answer oues-
tionS.
Shortly after Captain Taylor dis
appeared it was announced at the
district attorneys office that Chief
Deputy District Attorney Robert
Stewart was out of town ION a fish
ing trip"
Captain Taylor, it was thought,
went to San Francisco to investi-
gate a report that a Mrs. A. M.
Donovan" a name used by June
Taylor, visited Marco at San Quen-
tin yesterday. Stewart, it was ru
mored, may have accompanied the
police officer.
1t was admitted by investigators
that possibility existed that
Crawford's desk was rifled and val
liable papers removed after his
death. Surprise also was expressed
that although Crawford and Spen-
Ger were known to have carried
guns for years no weapons we're
found on the bodies or in the death
room.
w. Joseph Ford. veteran criminal
attorney of Los Angeles, conferred
with Fits during the morning and
the belief grew that Ford will be
assigned as a special prosecutor of
Clark.
The fact that Clark worked for
seven years as deputy under for
mer District Attorney Asa Keyes
and under Fits, himself. was the
reason given by Fits for wanting
a special prosecutor
w. I. Gilbert, foe of Ford in many
legal battles and his colleague in the
first trial of Alexander Pantages for
assertedly assaulting Eunice Prin-
gle, II, has joined Clark's counsel.

beginning and in the future, if far
mers will keep in touch with their
representatives as do commercial
interests, they might obtain needed
legislation.
The assemblyman stated that if
he should be returned to the legis-
lature, and he was doubtful if he
desired to be, he would attempt to
gather all the farm representatives
together to vote on matters of farm
interest

ORANGE. Va, May 90. lUp)-
Thirty miles from a railroad, high
up IN a crevice of the Blue Ridge,
President Hoover today delivered q
broadcast heard throughout the
United States.
1t was the first of several ad-
dresses he expects to make from his
fishing camp this summer over a
new radio alignment the broad
casting agencies have provided. The
occasion was the dedication of the
Cornell University War Memorial
at Ithaca, N. Y.
Swishing pine trees and the roar
ing waters of Laurel and Forks
creek forming the Rapidan were the
only sounds as Mr.. Hoover plugged
in the microphone to pay high tri-
butte to the college youths who lost
their lives in the World War.
The President picked up the cue
from the start of his address with
out the assistance of an announcer
"a practice ne intends to follow in
his other camp speeches. The mi
crophone was placed on table in
his log cabin living room and he
rested in an easy chair as he spoke.
The speech heralded the valor of
the 264 boys from Cornell who lost
their lives in France. The President
took occasion, however, to draw the
attention of the nation ito all Our
youth who went over, >1ever to come
back"
Mr.. Hoover urged his listeners
not to glorify war or TO perpetuate
hatreds. but to remember the ideals
which possessed the youth of the
country at the time.
His speech follows in full:
Fourteen years ago this morning
a group of American boys carried
an American flag into the fighting
on the Aisne front, and thereby
made splendid gesture symbolic of
the might of the new world muster
ing for the decisive issue.
