Les ANGELES, Aug. "a GIN.
S.. Nearly three days of argu-
ments convinced the jurors they
would never agree on the guilt
of David H. Clark, charged with
killing Herbert Spencer, editor,
and Charles Crawford. politician,
so the jury was discharged yes
terday, but Joseph Ford, prosecu-
tor, decared today that the case
would be retired.
He termed the vote of II jurors
for acquittal ridiculous"
William " ller, the juror favor
ing conviction, said:
II wouldn't have changed IN
ten years."
Judd Wilson, another juror, be-
came alarmed at the heat Of the
discussion and removed the cart
ridges in the many guns among
the exhibits.
Clark's plea was sef-defense.
He took the disagreement calm
" but with disappointment.

Mrs. Ferdinand w. Roehling. so
cial leader and prominent in

W0shington Fashions
BY WILMA LAVMLE

Off to college this year with
a oetter looking wardrobe than
ever, for two good reasons.
First, clothes are smarter, more
feminine, and more becoming
than they have been for many
seasons. Second, their prices
are lower. The dress we have
sketched today proves both of
these points beautifully.
Ribbed Jersey New
A soft ribbed jersey, wide
ribbed like old fashioned stock
ings, makes this dress, and it's
color is Spanish tile, vivid and
smart. Spanish tile, as you
know, is a brick dusty red with
a good deal of orange in it.
The collar is unusually attrac-
tive on this dress with its one
sided effect, and it may be
taken out, laundered, and put
back with a minimum of ease.
The plain sleeves held together
by big metal button are prac-
tical for class room and spec
tator sports. The skirt is mar
velouSly cut, so that it fits
about the hips and falls with
the slightest flare below.
In Small Sizes
This dress will be warm for
campus wear and it is also
suitable to the girl who is in
business if she is small, for it
only comes in Junior sizes. You
can't possibly imagine how well
it fits until you see it and you
can't realize what a bargain it
is until you know it's low price.
1t is from a Washington store.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, September 30.-The
bond market met a continued volume
OF liquidation in all classes of securi-
ties, which depressed prices to new
lows in most cases.
At the same time, however. there was
a considerably better undertone, owing
to the success of Pre- nier Macdonald
in forestalling general election In
Britain this Fall. Thus assured that
the efforts of the British government
to restabiliZe sterling would not be in
terrupted Wall Street demonstrated its
improved sentiment by bidding for fair
ly large amounts of United States Gov
eminent long-term bonds, prime COR
poration issues and the best of the
foreign dollar descriptions somewhat
closer to the market than was the case
Tuesday
There was still a fair amount of CT
ferings of United States Governments.
Prices were of "a to Il point in the case
OF the active issues. The inactive first
Liberty second convertible) AIS. how
ever, which have not sold since July,
sold 1R points under their previous
price. Brokers declared that offerings
of Treasury bonds from out-of-town
banks and the smaller metropolitan in
situations were not unusually large, but
said some heavy blocks were offered
from abroad. Naturally it would be
profitable for citizens of countries with
deprecated currencieS to sell American

PARLEYS ON GOLD
HAVE BEEN URGED
Silver and Oil Conferences
Also Favored by Several
Legislators.

BY the Associated Press.
International conferences on gold, sill
yer and oil have been proposed in many
quarters.
Lord Reading. foreign secretary for
England, says his country will seek an
international conference to consider
problems related to the world gold sup
ply. Renewal of agitation for an in
ternatiQnal silver conference followed
the action of England in ordering a SIX
month suspension of its gold standard
to meet its financial crisis.
Legislators Favor Idea.
In this country Representative Kelly
of Pennsylvania, favoring an interna-
tional silver conference. said Congress
at its next session will consider the
matter of stabilizing the price of silver.
Senator Walsh of Montana, hopes re-
cent developments will lead to an in
ternational conference for rehabilitation
of silver, ard Senator Wheeler, also Of
Montana, declared the world must sta
Billie the metal. Senator King OF Utah
said the European financial crisis makes
an international silver conference inn
perative.
Steps looking to international con-
ferences on silver are in process OF
being taken in England Lord Hunsdon
Lords a motion to reques his government
to confer with the United States and
the other governments of the empire rs
to the need for raising the present level
of wholesale prices and the desirability
of dealing with the question of silver
so as to increase the purchasing power
of large portion of the population OF
the world by stabilizing the price OF
silver at some appropriate level.
Oil producers in Kansas, Oklahoma
and Texas, have urged the calling OF
an international conference to prorate
? oil production during the next three
wears, in order to prevent overproduc-
ton and to increase its pice level.
Oil Farley Proposed.
Pending further consideration of the
matter by Government officials, 1t was
said that the American Petroleum In
stitute might call a conference for the
purpose of regulating the output in
the United States, Canada, Russia,
South America, Mexico, Europe and the
Orient.
The oil representatives plan to submit
the proposal to the State Department
within a month They state the extent
to which oil imports are curtailed will
determine whether the industry will
seek a tariff on oil from Congress,
which, when it meets. will be furnished
by the Tariff Commission with re-
port on domestic and foreign oil pro-
duction costs.
Secretary Wilbur of the Interior De-
psrtment favors stabilizing production
in the United States before attempting
an international conference.

ciaD Those who believe that the bot
tom of the depression was reached last
week, when between so and so per cent
of all the stocks quoted on the big
board reached the lowest levels Of the
depression. based their conclusion on
the fact that number of important
issues, like United States Steel, Amer
lean Can, General Electric and West

York Central among the rails, had
closed Saturday with net gains over the
