NO VERDICT IN HONOLULU CASE
 IS REACHED YET

 of 4 Defendants CASE WAS GIVEN TO l2 WEDNESDAY NIGHT
Defense Attorney M a k e S Request-Is Denied
 by Prosecutor

HONOLULU, H. l., April 29.-The jury in the ''Honor Staying" case is still dead locked.
 Defense Counsel M0ntgom- cry Vim believes the jury men are standing II to 1 or 10 to ? for acquittal. He has asked Prosecuting Attorney John c. Kelley to agree on a verdict on that basis but Kel- icy refused.
 The case was given to the jury at 10 o'clock last We'd nesday night.
 The four defendants are Lieut.. Thomas H. Massis; his mother-in-law, Mrs. Granville 'Fortescue, and two Navy men, E. J. Lord and A. O. Jones. They were charged with staying of Joseph Kaha- hawai-, young Hawaiian, who confessed he assaulted Lieut.. Massie's wife.
 The jury was instructed by Judge Charles s. Davis, that the defendants could be found guilty of second degree mur- der, manslaughter, or n o guilty. The jury could find Thomas H. Massie only not guilty by reason of insanity. Separate verdicts were ord cred.

RENT REDUCED
 ON FUR FARMS
 BY FORESTRY
Fifty Per Cent Cut Made on Lease Rates in Na-
 tional Forest Lands

Due to the almost impossible conditions under which fur-farm- CTS in the National forest areas of Alaska are now and have been for some time facing, a 50 per cent. reduction in the special use lease charges for the year has been given them, it was announced here today by M L. Merritt, Assistant Regional Forester.
 This applies to all leases carry ing charge of more than $5 per year, a minimum charge of $5 being fixed This will affect but two ranches, both small, and pay ing only the minimum.
 There are 159 fur farms in na- tional forest districts in the Ter ritory. For the past three years they have felt the effects of world wide depression and the situation of most of them is said to be pre- carious. The lease rates range from $5 to $250 per year. Most of them fall in the $25 and $50 brackets.
 The reduction is effective for this year only, but if present con- ditions have not changed mater tally for the better by next year, it is probable that it will be con- tinued at that time.

 The second is proper diet. Gov. Iernment agencies such as the chil- dren's bureau and the home ec- oiIomics bureau now distribute this information. Definite gains in this aspect of child health are anti cipated this year.
 Milk Is Essential
 The third is clean milk. May Day chairmea will stress the need fer a pint and a half a day for every child
 Fourth is rest and sunshine, recreation and freedom from wor- ry.
 Fifth is adequate care of the mother before the child is born.
 In addition, President Hoover's Children's Charter with it's 1e points is cited as a guide to com rnunity effort
 The need of recreation for rural children will be emphasized in May Day programs. Of 100000 farm boys and girls in America only one in IA belongs to H Clubs. Elm F,oyment of rural teachers who appreciate country surroundings and will instill this into the chil- dren will be urged.
