NEW YORK, Nov 12.-Thomas w. Lamont of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co,, writing in the Sat- urday Evening Review of Litera- ture, calls upon Germany to take the initiative for a direct readjust- ment with France on the repara- tions problem.
 It is not now a matter for Ameri- ca to urge. said Lamont, who was a member of the committee of ex- perts who drew up the Young plan Germans, he said, should not ex- pect President Hoover to save the situation for them.
 The financier advised Germnay to stop agitating for revision of the Versailles Treaty, expressing the opinion that the French will be found to be not "unreasonable" concerning any revision that may be justified provided it comes about through orderly processes. |"
 America Carries Burden
 We may say" he wrote, that for twelve years, ever since 1919, the American financial or invest ment community has been carry ing altogether too much of this separations burden. and has thus made it easier for the creditor powers to avoid seeking a really

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. 12.- Ephriam Marks, aged .25, a gypsy prince" has been jailed while Federal officers decide whether his 14-year- old bride was kidnapped or purchased according to tribal cus- toms.
 Frank Ranco, of Brooklyn, the girls father, charged his daughter was Kidnapped from a Brooklyn theatre and forced to marry Marks.
 The gypsies replied Marks paid the father of the girl $2,250. The girl was found in Marks's camp here. Queen Amelia, of the camp said Rancos racket was in selling the girl, tracing her down and then retaining her with the aid of the police.

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Rear Ad- miral Bradley A. Flske. retired Chief of Naval Operations, in the early part of the World War, has struck out in defense of William Howard Gardiner, President of the Navy League, who recently attacked President Hoover and his adminis- tration on the naval program.
 Rear Admiral Fiske declared the Navy League, as an organization was necessary to keep the public informed because politicians "gae Navy officers and do all they car to discredit their intelligence alid motives"

al shut off from the world, in a world of their own," Miss Parsons declares.
 Story of Unhappy Childhood
 Mrs. Judd's eyes, to me, tell a
 Mrs. Judd seyes, to me, tell a story of an unhappy childhood, an uneven girlhood, discontented life, and hours of breeding over things real or imagined done by others to hurt her. Whatever the violence of her temper, her jeal- ous rages were inborn in her na- ture, in my opinion" As the well-known New York State expert on criminals was en- deavoring to explain Mrs. Judd's murder and mutilation of Hedvig Samuelson and Agnes Leroi the woman who stuffed her victims bodies in trunks and shipped them to Los Angeles was writing her 1 life story" and unconsciously supporting the very theories ad- vanced by Miss Parsons.
 Her brow IS iow but broad, and the furrows may denote breeding or much quizzical raising of them to people to whom she has been wont to appeal for help against punishment or for indulgence of her whims,' Miss Prasons explains in continuing her study of the self confessed double murderess. Nose Is Average Her nose is average, the far ing nostrils perhaps indicative of high strung sensitiveness. They afe not high cut and broad, the nos- trils of the keenly intelligent per son.
 Her mouth, with it's rolling and slightly thickened underlip, shows love of the beautiful, sensuous- ness without perhaps sensuality The almost downward droop at the corners would tell story of life long discontent, unhappiness, mel ancholy.
 Mrs. Judd's chin does not bear out the strength of her jaws, which are square and determined. The chin slopes away to weak line, which on the other hand is counter balanced by her high cheekbones. '' , In conclusion, Miss Parsons be- lieves that Mrs. Judd is emotion ally cold, for after satisfying her grudge, she still bore it, as IS evidenced by the cold manner in which she disposed of the bodies Aside from the mental condition showing in her eyes, the woman criminologist, however, sees only fairly average woman in Mrs. Judd's other features.

Slackening Off of Arrests in October Taken

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12.- In the lessening of arrests by agents, Prohibition Director Wood- cock says enforcement of the liquor laws is becoming more effective.
 Director Woodcock gave this in- depreciation in making public the figures showing a heavy drop in the number of Federal arrests in October. He figured enforcement last year cost the United States only four cents and two mills per capita.
 Woodcock said This looks fine; it is pretty good showing"

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Although experts in the intriguing field of criminology have not been able, as yet, to pick out, with unerring accuracy, or with appreciable prac- tical results, persons who will con- init crimes in the future, they are proficient at providing backgrounds and the motives which actuated the criminal-after the deed was done. Such is the case with Win nie Ruth Judd. trunk slayer.
 While such post-mortem reason ing does not serve as preventive of crime, it does provide helpful explanations of lawless violence and may, in time, with the all- important cooperation of far-see- ing legislators, segregate the crim- finally inclined and guard not only others but themselves from their dangerously uncomfortable na- lures.
 The most recent and particu- larly gruesome case to bring crim- inologists to the fore with interest ing theories brought out this state- ment from Clara Parsons, head of the criminal Identification bureau New York State Department oi Corrections:
 winnie Ruth Judd's first words, I am not guilty might have been anticipated from the distant, almost vacant. look in her eyes.
 Faraway Vacant Look
 While otherwise the woman seems to be an average looking person, with no particularly out standing earmarks of crime, he1 eyes have the familiar faraway even slightly vacant look so ofter seen in persons mentally dis .turbed," declares Miss Parsons. The person who described one's eyes as the windows of the soul has a sincere corroborator in the able woman criminologist who bases her diagnosis of the killer of her two erstwhile friends in Phoenix, Arizona, on the tell-tale eyes of the trunk slayer.
 The look in Mrs. Judd's eyes is seen in melancholy persons, per sons who are abnormally sensitive to the point of breeding over i'm aginary sights. Her eyes, and the eyes of persons like that, do not seem to be alive. They do not smile when the lips do. They are as it were. the eyes of an individu-
