five OF CHILDREN
| DEFEND MRS. JONES
Daughters Take Stand to Aid
Mother, Accused of
Murder.

BY the Associated Press.
AMELIA COURT HOUSE. Va, Sep
TENDER l.-Three daughters and two
sons Of Mrs. Jeston Allen Jones yester-
day took the witness stand to defend
her against charge of numbering her
husband, j. Will Jones, last January g..
Their testimony, for the most part, was
directed against credibility of that pre-
viously given by her son Robert, who
said his mother plotted his fathers
death and even urged him to commits
the crime.
Oscar Jones, who was indicted with
his mother, took the stand for the de-
Tense late yesterday after being advised
that he need not appear unless he de-
sired. Commonwealth Attorney Cen
eral X. Taylor subjected him to a rigid
examination. Charles Jones also was
called.
Others Defend Mother.
Mrs. Antonce Ordonez of La Paz,
Bolivia; Mrs. Emily Hickman and Mrs.
Caroline De Haven OF Carroll County.
Va, aligned themselves with their
mother and told of Roberts converse
tions with them and of alleged demands
for money.
Robert told me-" said Mrs. Ordonez,
wife of a former secretary of the Bo-
livian consulate at New York, that
he had it all in his hands; that If
mother comes across everything Will
be all right. He said he wanted some
thing besides words that it took money
to go to school and get somewhere in
the future"
Senior Ordonez testified that Robert
said If his mother assured him money
enough to go to school he would have
nothing more to do with the case.
Worth $4,000.
Mrs. De Haven quoted Robert as
saying it would be worth $4,000 to
the Jones family to prosecute Richard
Lee, colored farm hand, now serving
20 years for the murder, because OF
the double indemnity provisions of an
insurance policy. Robert Jones tes-
titled that his mother told him she
planned to have Richard Lee kill his
father.
The prosecution began a counter
attack by aSsailing the testimony of
Mrs. Hickman. After asking If she had
ever written of the death of her father
az murder and receiving negative re-
plies, Commonwealth Attorney Taylor
introduced a letter written to Robert
which the witness identified as her own.
It referred to the death Of Mr.. Jones as
a murder and said "Papas family, ex-
cept grandpa, is as crooked as -"
She denied that she wrote Robert about
money to build house.
Mrs Jones listened intently while her
daughters were on the stand. Her hus-
band, j. viii Jones, prominent dairy
man, was shot to death in bed the
| night of January 8. Mrs. Jones and
her son oscar were arrested after Rich
ard Lee In his trial charged that he
was offered $25 by them to commit the
| murder.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, September T.
Despite warm arguments against the
use of handicaps in an airplane speed

was taken at meeting last night. The
race was won by Phoebe Omlle,

Calf. Finally. Louise Thaden, Has
brouck Heights, N. j., a derby entry,
took the floor.
Let's all be good sports and stop
quibbling like children" she said. Eve
tried not to grippe and I think we all
should adopt the same attitude about
this derby"
Makes Plea for Harmony.
Miss Thaden urged that the pilots
profit by this years experience and turn
their attention toward forming &C
ceptable rules for next year.
Those of the pilots who voted for
continuance of the handicap system
said their approval was on condition
that the rules and management of a
derby were offered to the racers for
acceptance before the start of race.

Points were scored on the basis of
comparative power of the motor and
speed of the plane. Calculation of the

the Middle West prevented air race
spectators today from witnessing the
seven transcontinental flyers dash
across the finish line from Los Angeles,

to start this morning, was postponed
for better weather until tomorrow.
Twelve huge naval flying boats from
the U. S. S. Wright were scheduled to

AIRWAYS TEST ITS NEW RADIO
 SENDER HERE
Hangars and Planes Will Be Able to- Talk to One
 Another Any Time

Radio broadcasting equipment for the Alaska Washington Airways has been received by its Juneau agents, J. B. Burford and Com- pany, in the Valentine Building on Seward Street, and was given a successful test last Saturday night The machine will not be put into use again until resumption of air plane activities here late this month or early in March. This sending set will be supplementary to a re- ceiving set at the hangar, and all planes will be provided with send ing and receiving equipment of their own.
 Can Talk Any Time
 The radio equipment will enable the hangar here and planes in the air or at distant places on the ground to talk with one another at any time.
 The wave length of the sending machine here insures perfect com- munication at 600 miles under or dinary conditions and at 300 miles under most unfavorable conditions.
 Juneau Is Base
 we went on the air for while Saturday night with the new ma- chine" declared MT Burford. Ut worked perfectly Juneau will con- tinue to be the principal base of the Airways, but similar sending apparatus supplemented by receiv- ing equipment will be supplied other places in Southeast Alaska so all airport stations will be able to be in touch at all times with all planes"

 Championship

Girls on Juneau and Douglas high school basketball teams are practicing faithfully this week for the last and deciding contest of their five-game series for the championship of Gastineau Chan nel The crucial struggle will take place in the Douglas Natatorium next Saturday evening. Previous events of the kind have been held Friday evenings, but the approach ing battle will be fought Saturday evening.
 Each team has two victories to it's credit. The one that is trium- phant this week will be qualified to compete for the Southeast Alaska title against the winner of the Petersburg -Kechikan tournament.
 No added attraction is needed to bring a throng to the natatorium Saturday. but nevertheless there will be one. The Juneau high school made alumni will play the Douglas high school boys team. Alumni of the Juneau school have found fault with the Juneau high school boys team because of its four successive defeats at the hands of Douglas. The Juneau students have disbanded their squad, so the Alumni have an opportunity now to show what they can do against the high school boy cham pions of the Gastineau Channel region.

laws have suggested uniform state child labor act that would put the newsboy in a class by him self.
 Their suggestion provides that boys under 16 who work at street trades must comply with legal school requirements, must obtain permit and wear a badge.
 It would exempt, however, the newsboys in line with the circula- t1on mems belief that the news paper boy should not be considered as engaged in street trade.
 To determine whether newspaper selling was detrimental to scholas- tic standing of boys in Philadel- phia a survey of IA elementary schools was made.
 Among the newsboys the promo ton percentage record was over 3s per cent, while the percentage among other boys was s5.s.
