ITALY PRISONS ARE GIVING UP
 THEIR INMATES

Rome. Nov GU. P.) - A large exodus from the prisons of Italy was in progress to-day under the general amnesty decree issued by the government in celebration of the tenth anniversary of fascism.
 The amnesty remits all sentences of five years or less, including spo- litical offenders. It reduces ten- year sentences by three years and sentences over ten years by five.
 Political exiles share only pArty in the amnesty. It offers those abroad and who are under con- viction the same terms as those in Italian prisons. providing they re- present themselves to the prisons to which they were assigned within four months.
 It was explained that political prisoners confined in the Lipari Is- lands did not share in the decree because they are not regarded as criminals, whereas the amnesty is based on the criminal code. It was said, however. that they would be given clemency under separate police orders, being held meanwhile as a public safe- guard"

 Lindbergh made several trips to sea with Curtis and was on one of these expeditions when the body of his child was found not five miles from his home, in crudely made grave where 1t had been placed the night of the Kidnapping.
 Curtis was arrested and was said to have confessed he invented his stories so he could sell details to the newspapers. At his trial he repudiated the confession. Colonel Lindbergh was witness for the state.

shelter. Many book holders re- ported that word was passed from one panhandler to another and the first display of the book brought almost complete immunity.
 New York has been the mecca of professional beggars for years and in the past three years they have tripled, in number. Because of constantly crowded streets and innumerable places where large numbers congregate, the metropoli- tan section offers fertile fields for a moocher's talent. Beggers squat in the entrances to subway stations, on the stairways leading to elevated stations, at the entrances of pub lie parks, and even on street cor nerS.
 Some of the squatters are ob- viously healthy and able-bodied, but most display some deformity. Some show the theatricalism of In- dian mendicants in making them- selves appear horrible to impress passersby. One begger has plyed his trade at the side of Roxy thea- ter for years. He pulls his pants leg up to display an artificial leg through which holes have been bored. He spends his time passing pencils in and out of the holes.

 New York, Nov 7.-(UP)-Pre- election short covering sent the stock market up 1 to more than 4 points to-day in the most active session since October IA. Part of the gains were erased before the close.
 The market opened. higher and roses harpiy when wheat jumped 2 to 2K cents a pushed at Chicago and more than 3 cents a bushel at Winnipeg. Chicago whe0t closed with gains of to l Y cents. Other markets were strong most of the day with the exception of cotton. Bonds advanced as did bank stocks. Curb shares followed the move ments on the big board. Silver me- tai was strong.
 Weakness in the Canadian dollar which brought iti down 5 cents from last weeks high was said to be responsible for the bulge in wheat prices at Winnipeg. Chi- cago's rise was sympathetic with the latter market. The Canadian dollar at to-day's low was only a few cents from It's low for the year made in January.
 Some buying in stocks was said to be coming from foreign sources. but the long operations were still largely of a professional nature. Shorts were nervous over the fu- ture trend of the list and covered their commitments. Toward the close this class of buying light ened and the list sagged off from the highs. The losses from the best levels were moderate in all instances.

Issue Found for
 the Defendants Horse Suit and Service Rendered Basis of
 Actions

Issues in favor of the defend- ants were found by Judge Edward J. Finn in two civil actions tried last week in the common pleas court, according to a decision handed down to-day in the court. The cases were those of Anna Haight against the Citizens and Manufacturers National bank, ex- ecutor of the estate of Lucy C.. Thomas. and William Randall of Waterbury against Raymond An- drews of Washington.
 In the Haight suit the plaintiff sued for services rendered and lodging rendered Mrs Thomas for which she claimed she was not paid. In the Randall suit the plaintiff claimed damages on the grounds that a horse bought from the defendant was not as good as reported by the defendant.

denied fair trials.
 N. Sutherland said there was no question excepting that the at mosphere was one of tension and hostility"
 1t was the duty of the trial court to see the defendants had a fair trial, he continued, noting that the defendants were "boys" illiterate and apparently ignorant.
 Referring to the claim the ne- xroes hadn't been allowed to choose their counsel, Sutherland recalled that they had quickly been able to obtain excellent legal representa- ticn on appeal. ,rhe opinion termed the trial courts appointment of all mem- bers of the local bar to represent the defendants as q gesture.
 Even intelligent persons could not guide themselves through the intricacies of legal procedure and protect their rights, Sutherland said, adding that 1t was then so much more essential for illiterate persons such as the defendants to have adequate counsel. A
 Justices Butler and MacRey- holds vigorously dissented. saying the majority opinion was based on = single statement of fact involv- ing the appointment of counsel. Butler wrote the dissenting opin- ino.
 Butler noted the defendants had not been tried enmasse but were given four separate trials. Counsel who represented the defendants, Butler said, had been diligent in protecting their rights to the sat isfaction of the Alabama supreme court which affirmed the convic- tions.
 The disturbances resulted from the demonstration attempted by the international labor defense. There were series of skirmishes around the Plaza grounds In which the police resisted every effort to parade within the enclosure.
 Four men were among those ar rested. The names of the 12 held were given as follows:

 Phelps said investigations by so- cial workers showed the profess sional panhandlers make an excel lent living. oftentimes amassing considerable sums for few months of effort. Police have re- pcatedly arrested tattered beggars and found large sums of money in pockets. Phelps said there were many instances of citizens being approached for a hand-out by the same man morning after morning over period of weeks.
 In most instances, the panhan- dlers refuse to accept slips from the blue book. Phelps said very small percentage of those given out were turned in at the emergency
