Reynolds, uncle and guardian of
Smith, wrote the solicitor that III
in the discharge of your further
officials duties with respect to these
cases you come to the conclusion
that it is right and fair and in the
public interest that the cases be
dropped, then that action on your
part will certainly have no criti-

Smiths family"
W. N. Reynolds letter to Soil
cltor Higgins reads:
Ever since the death of my
nephew, Smith Reynolds, l have
been very much interested in ane
have given very careful ane
thoughtful attention to everything
that l could learn about that ira
gic occurance. Knowing Smith
as l did, and realizing the many
fine traits of character that he had
| am convinced that his attitude
toward life was such that he
would never have intentionally
hdled himself. Nothing that l have
been able to learn about the case
has been sufficient to change my
mind in that respect.
"On the other hand, it is equal
ly true, in my opinion and in that
of Smiths brother and sisters, that
the evidence fails to prove conclu-
sively that Smith was murdered.
i realize that the matter of
handling these indictments is of
fcially in your hands as the repre-
sentative of the state and that no
individual has or ought to have
anything to do with the question
of whether or not the cases are
prosecuted or are dropped. But
there has been a great deal of COM
ment and speculation as to what
the attitude of Smiths family is
toward these cases. With that fact
in mind, l am taking the liberty
of writing you this letter by way
of disclosing hat attitude and OF

will certainly have no criticism
from me Or from the other mem
bers of Smiths family. In fact,
think that, under the circumstan-
ces, all of us would be quite happy
if it should be your decision tt
drop the cases. Distressed as VIZ
all are over Smiths unfortunate
death, none of us could find an,
pleasure in a persecution that wa

Speaker Garner To Be Made Target By
 Republican Takers
They Regard Him as an Easier Mark Than Gov ROOsevelt-Thus Early in Campaign the G.O. P. SpOuters Hammer at Second Man on Ticket
BY RAYMOND CHAPTER CODyrirht 193S. by United PreSSl

(SOpyflSnC lSSS, Dy Onlteu freSSt
 Washington, July 12.-tUP)- Republicans are aiming their open ing campaign shots at Speaker Garner instead of at the head of the democratic ticket.
 They have cut loose at the demo- cratic vice-presidential candidate three times within the last A hours. Governor Roosevelt, mean- while, was allowed to slip away in comparative peace on a sailing cruise with his sons.
 This is unique strategy. It is an omen of a surprise-packed cam- paign in which one precedent after another Is due to be smashed.
 Republicans are seeking to turn loss into gain by trying to capi- talize upon the record of the demo- cratic house now completing it's first session. The nomination of Garner as democratic vice-presi- dential candidate was an invita- tion to the republicans to try it-- and unwilling invitation because Garner was accepted by the Roose- welt forces in roder to get the Tex as and California votes necessary to break the deadlock which was holding up the presidential nomin- ation.
 That is how the short, jolly, scrapping speaker happens to be singled out by Secretary of the Treasury Ogden Mills in the open-

JOURNEY GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE
 BY HIGH COURT

Hartford, Conn, July 12-CUP) The state supreme court of er- TOTS to-day found error in the con- viction of Joseph Journey, Bridge port innkeeper sentenced to be hanged for the murder of Frank Buda, and>ordered new trial.
 The decision, written by Jus tice John w. Banks with the con- currence of the full bench. de- clared the prosecution had not proven beyond reasonable doubt that the killing of Buda by shot gun in Easton last March 10 was "wilful, deliberate and premedi- tated."
 "The jury could not therefore reasonably have found the accused guilty of murder in the first de- gree" the court held.
