POLITICIANS SHOT
DEAD At HOME

CHICAGO, April 2 G.N.S0.
Nicholas Tesca, Republican
precinct captain, died today from
wounds received last night when
two men shot him on the front
porch of his home.
Before losing consciousness, the
victim told police the assailants
were the same men who warned
him two weeks ago to give up his
political activities in behalf of
James Savage, candidate for Re
publican committeeman from the
twenty-fifth ward.
Savage is the chief opponent
in the primaries of Assistant
United States District Attorney
Parrillo, who recently brought a
$250,000 libel suit against Frank
j. Loesch, president of the
Chicago Crime Commission.
Loesch, in a letter to Senator
William E. Borah, accused
Parrillo of being ga known
adherent of Al Capone." The let
ter was in connection with con-
sideration of Federal Judge James
H. Wilkerson's proposed elevation
to the appellate court.

FILIPINO HOPES
JEOPARDIZED

The demand of hackers of in
dependence for the Philippines
for a quick vote in the House
today threatened defeat of the
Hare independence bill on Mon
day.
The measure will be called up
under suspension Of the rules
unless unanimous consent is OBJ
tanned to consider the measure
under the general rules of the
House. A bill under suspension
requires a two-thirds vote for
passage, as compared to the
usual majority vote.
Although Democratic leaders
believe a strong majority of the
House favors independence, it is
possible that foes can rally
enough to defeat the measure if
a two-thirds vote is required.
Under the bill, the islands
wrested from Spain "a years ago
would be given their indepen-
dence eight years after consti-
tuition has been adopted by the
island people and approved by
the president.

7 MEN BREAK
JAIL WITH SAW

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, April

keys with iron bars after saving
their way out of the bullpen, II
prisoners escaped today from the
Cabell county Jail.
The "break" was affected under
cover of early morning darkness
and was believed by officials to
have been led by Irwin Carter,
former prohibition agent, who
was convicted in connection with
the hold-up of gasoline station
here recently and was awaiting
transfer to the State penitentiary
at Moundsville.
Immediately after the discovery
of the jail-break, county officials
posted $100 reward for the

DRAFT
Moderates Win in Heated s.
Hour Session; Green Shirt
Movement Feared

DUBLIN, April 2 (I.N.S.).
Still another draft of the Irish
Free State reply to Great
Britain s note on the oath
question was being worked
upon today.
This latest delay was the re-
suit of a heated five-hour
Cabinet session in which the
more moderate elements gained
a signal victory over Presi-
dent Eamonn De Valera.
International News Service
learned that the moderate group
led by Sean Lemass, minister of.
industry and commerce, had
forced De Valera to accede to
demands to leave the way open
for negotiations between the Free
State and England over the oath
and annuities questions.
Bases of Reply
The reply outlined was under.
stood to have been based upon
two points:
The Free State has an in
alienable right to remove the
oath from it's constitution with
out violating the treaty of 1921
because the wording in the
treaty is not mandatory.
The annuitieS can be withheld
because the agreement for their
payment never was ratified by
the respective Parliaments OF
Britain and the Free State.
Throughout the reply will be
worded so as to permit negoti'
alton.
Fear Green Shirts
Meanwhile certain factions Of
the government, watched with ap-
prehension development Of the
Republican green shirt move
ment. The drive, organized by
extremist Republicans seeking
immediate and complete indie
pendence of an unpartitioned
Ireland is gaining headway
rapidly.
The Irish people are beginning
to withdraw their support from
De Valera and his Fianna Fail
party, it was evident today.
Turn to Sim Fein
They are turning more to the
extremist groups, such as the
Irish republican army, the Sim
Fein and the Saore Fire, all of
which have virtually declared war
upon the Fianna Fail by openly
accusing it of Sinking it's task
and of a tendency to "obey an
exploiting minority that cham
pions an empire looted of land at
the expense of the masses"
In an article headed Damn
Your Concessions to England"
the Republican Army newspaper,
An Poblacht, today published a
radical plea for complete sever
ence of connections with Great
Britain,

STABILITY
NOTED BY U.s..

Greater stability of wholesale
prices during the past few weeks
and a noticeable revival of conf
dence in the banking structure in
February and early March were
the principal favorable develop
ments in business for the last
month and a half, the Commerce
Department said today in it's
periodical review of commerce
and industry.
Notwithstanding these improve
ments, however, the volume of
production and distribution
showed a further shrinkage, while
the liquidation of banking assets
has continued. despite a stronger
bond market and easing of money
rates.
Better confidence followed evil
dence that recent financial meas
ures have been effective in caus-
ing a sharp reduction in the num-
ber of bank failures and a return
of boarded currency to the banks.

SAYS NJ 'ADOO

LOS ANGELES, April 2 (U.S).
William G. McAdoo, Secretary of
the Treasury in the wartime
Cabinet of President Woodrow
Wilson, in statement issued
upon his return from a cross
country flight to Washington and
New York and return, declared
that Garner is growing stronger
all the time"
Mr.. McAdoo stopped in Ari-
zona, Texas, Louisiana, MisSis-
sippi, Georgia and North Caro-
lima.
He said:
"Mr. Garner is growing
stronger all the time. His
courageous action in taking the
floor of Congress-, a few days
ago, when as a rule a Speaker
does not leave the chair for
that purpose, has received gen.
eral cOmmendatiOn.
There is no doubt about the
fact that economic distress is
universal. If Congress would
Immediately enact bill to give
our wheat and cotton farmers
the protection of adequate tariff
duties on the amount of wheat
and cotton consumed in the
United States, and provide the
necessary machinery for putting
the benefit of those duties into
the pockets of the farmers, as
can be readily done, their pur-
chasing power would be re-
stored and a revival of sound
prosperity would Immediately

BILL HITS
NEW SNAG

A further delay in passage of
the Glass banking bill was seen
today in the Administrators plan
to propose a consolidation of all
banking activities under the Fed
eral reserve system.
The Senate Banking and Cur
rency Committee awaited the
draft of bill to be prepared by
Eugene Meyer. chairman of the
Federal Reserve Board, which
would place all banking institu-
tions under Federal supervision.
Many authorities believed the
law could not be drawn without
violating some of the Constitu-
tional rights of State banks.
Unification is favored by Sen
ator Carter Glass CD of Virginia.
He refused, however, to sanction
the Administration bill in ad-
vance.
Glass was incensed by the Ad-
miniStration's policy, since he re-
garded it as inconsistent" with
the opposition to anti-Speculative
legislation. He declared it was no
more radical nor upsetting to out
law State banks than to curb spec
ulation by Federal banks.

and he said he. had dropped in

She ss,i said;
He seemed to be always run

Violet Lowe, waitress in a Chi
neSe restaurant, who yesterday
told of the Rev. Davidson'S al
legged advances to her, took the
stand again today. She was asked
to describe photographs she said
the rector had shown to her. She
testified they were not immoral,
"but just girls Davidson said he
had been with"
Had Boy Friend
The next witness was Mrs.
Kathleen Grant, attractive and
we'll dressed, who testified that
she lived in Stiffkey prior to
her marriage and worked in a
London tea shop.
She said that in 1880 Rev.
Davidson entered the tea shop
where she was working and
asked her to go to the theater.
She said:
"1 told him I wasn't inter-
ested and that already had a
boy friend.
"When I was at Stiffkey in
1927 he told me / had wonder
full eyes and that 1 ought to go
into the films. I used to try to
hide from him in the tea shop.
