Congress Faces
Difficult Task
Continued From Page II

senate Democrats each arranged to
meet today to decide on their Or
ganization states. Numerous per-
sonalities are involved, the most
striking development being the eff
fort of Republican Frogressives to
unseat Senator George H. Moses, N
H.. as the president pro tempore
the officer who substitutes for the
vice president. Tt carries both
honor and influence. Republican
Progressiyes still are resentful of
the way Moses characterized them
as sons of the wild jackass."
The underlying issue here is
whether these Republicans, who
hold the balance of power in mar
roWly divided senate, in seeking to
have their revenge, will precipitate
an intra- party fight which will re-
suit in their losing some influential
chairmanships and perhaps being
thrown into the arms of the Dem
ocrats on crucial roll calls later,
when the issue will be that of sup
porting the legislation passed by
the Democratic house. 1t is highly
technical affair but it holds politi-
cal possibilities of the most far
reaching character.
House Democrats hold their cau-
Gus tomorrow night. They are ex-
pected to select John N. Garner,
Texas, as their candidate for speak
er and to consider proposals to lib
eralize the rules of the house which
have enabled a handful of men to
dictate its actions. This too is tech
nical but likewise involves far
reaching policies-one of them be-
ing the question of whether con-
gress will be allowed to carry the
prohibition issue to a real show

WOMAN'S SLAYER
PAYS WITH LIFE
AT STATE PRISON

SAN QUENTIN PRISON, CAL
Dec. 4. U.P)-Clarence King, con-
victed of Staying his sweetheart,
Mrs. Minnie (Micky) Mccoy SO
that he might marry Eunice Par
dee, daughter of wealthy Corval-
lis, Ore, rancher, died on the
prison gallows today.
The trap was sprung at 1905 a.
m.
King was pronounced dead at
10:20h a. m.
King was pale and downcast as
he approached the scaffold. He
closed his eyes as he stood on the
platform, waiting for the rope TO
be placed about his neck.
To the last he maintained that
the shooting Of Mrs. Mccoy was
accidental. He told the warden
that he had not intended to kill her,
and devoted most of his time after
awaking this morning to insisting
to members of the death watch
that she had been killed by the ac-
cidental discharge of a revolver
during struggle for the gun.
The 20 year old slayer, baptized
only last Wednesday in the Roman
Catholic faith, received the last
rites of the church from Father
George A. O'Meara. He was ac-
companied to the scaffold by Father
w. j. Meade.
He ate a hearty breakfast. Dur
ing the night he was restless, smok-
ing many cigarettes-tailor made
cigarettes had been denied him un-
til he entered the death CELL At
no time, however, did he manifest
any fear or hope that he might
escape the death penalty.
There were 26 witnesses.

GOODRICH PARTY
INSPECTS WORK
OF TEST TRUCKS

That business conditions through
out the nation have reached the
bottom and are now on the upgrade
is the opinion of T. B. Harrington
vice president and general manager
of the Pacific Goodrich Rubber
company, visiting Ell Centre today
with a party of his company Off
cials.
harrington expressed himself as
being very favorably impressed
with Imperial Valley. With the di-
versity of crops and business here,
he said, the valley apparently can
not help but prosper.
With Harrington in the Goodrich
party today were K. d. Smith, tech
nical superintendent of the Akron
plant; Guy Gundaker, merchandise
ing manager of the company from
Akron; F.. A. Neid, superintendent
of the Los Angeles factory, and
r. E. Jeffers, Pacific coast mer-
chandising manager.
The party arrived yesterday aft
ernoon from Los Angeles to inspect
test trucks running out of Ell Centro
equipped with Goodrich tires.
Road and climatic conditions in
this county are highly satisfactory
for this test work, Harrington said
today, since the tires require hard
test of varying heat and road con-
ditions. The trucks, with a relay of
drivers, are running "a hours day
from Ell Centre to the state line
near Yuma, and to the Riverside
county line on the north.
The entire official party, with the
exception of Jeffers, made the trip
from Ell Centro to Yuma on one of
the trucks this morning, and re-
turned to express complete satisfac-
ton with results.
