EMPEROR PLANS
TO WESTERNIzE
ASIATIC STATE
BAo-DAI YOUTHFUL RULER
OF TERRITORY WHICH HAS
BEEN FRENCH PROTECTOR
ATE SINCE 1886

PARIS, Oct. ia handsome,
athletic youngster with the appear
ance of snappy college boy sail
ed from Marseilles to take over
the reins of his native AMMAN
French Indo-Chinal.
He is Emperor Bao-Dai, 19-year-
old ruler of this Asiatic state,
which can be compared in the size
of its area and population to the
state of Ohio, and which since
1886 has been French protector
ate.
Bao-Dai succeeded his father,
the late Emperor Khai Dinh, to
the throne in 1925, and was crown
ed in the following year. As a boy
of 10 he came to France to COM
plete his education.
Emperor Bao-Dai is an enthusi-
astic sportsman. His favorite hob
by is riding on the drive of the
Bots de Boulogne. He is also an
amateur tennis player.
A keen student of history and
literature, the young potentate has
a marked interest also in the thea
ter, and delights in musical plays.
He is fond of Bach, Beethoven and
Mozart, and in his leisure hours
plays classical music on the piano.
Annam's ruler is returning to
his native country with western
ideas in his head. His first act,
he says, will be to do away with
caste rule, reform the judicial sys-
tenn, and open more schools.
He will be assisted by Prince
Vinh, his cousin, who has watched
his education in France. and is re-
puted to be a champion Of modern
reforms. Western methods Of gov
eminent have already been intro
dueed by the present Minister of
Finance of AMMAN, Tai van Toan.
who is a graduate from a French
college.
While educated entirely along
Western lines. the young monarch
has not neglected his mother
tongue and is quite familiar with
the medieval customs of his conn-
try.
An old Annamite priest accom-
panied the young prince 70 France.
and raised him In the strict Anna
mite tradition. Under him Bao- Dai
has learned the complicated Chit
nsse characters and the language
Of his native country.

CAUTION GIVEN
ON ELECTORS in
VOTING BALLOTS
FIRST SEVEN ON TICKET ARE
FOR ROOSEVELT; DEMO
CRATIC COMMITTEE WAC
ING CAMPAIGN

Democratic voters on November
are cautioned that to vote for
Franklin ID. Roosevelt for presi-
dent that they must vote for the
first seven electors on the ballot.
No mistakes must be made. The
first seven names are Roosevelt's
electors. The name Roosevelt will
not appear on the ballot but by
voting for the first seven electors
you will be voting for Roosevelt. 10
This is what every true Key
Wester will want to do on Novem-
Der 8. The republican leadership
has wavered and collapsed now in
the middle of the worst depres-
sion in the country's history. 1t
is time to swap parties when one
party fails.
Here in Key West we are feel
ing today the effects of Hoover
ism. Our Naval Station is gone
and our Army Barracks is prac-
tically abandoned. The revenue
that this city obtained through
civilian employees at the station,
enlisted men and officers who
were stationed here has been cut
off. Not to mention the money
that was spent by crews of Naval
vessels that would touch this port
for supplies.
Families that would still be hv-
ing in Key West were forced to
move away because of the closing
of the station. II they could be
given employment in other sta
tons, the Key West station could
have been kept open.
A united effort to give Roose-
welt and Garner the largest ma
jority ever given Democratic
president for governor is on. We
should not fail. We owe it To the
party, to ourselves and to our city
TO go to the polls and vote for
Roosevelt on November 8.

Prosecutor Describes
MaiIlefert' S DeathAs
Most Horrible Murder
Durrance Addresses Jury
Trying Former Convict
Guards For Killing OF
New Jersey Youth
tBy Associated Pressl
.@r~~xx1 =

NItN ANNUGAUtra4 hThGAHS
JACKSONVILLE, Oct. Is.
Describing the punishment
melted out to Arthur Maille-
fert as more cruel than Span
ish inquisition, Charles M.
Durrance, states attorney,
today painted a picture of
horror to the jury trying the
two former Sunbeam camp
guards for murder. The de-
PENDANTS are George w.
Courson and Solomon Higgin-
botham.
The prosecutor told the
jury he would never become
a part Of defense of this
penal institution of des-
potism. Because he wouldn't
tell where some hack saws
were he was numerically
beaten and because he
wouldn't take a pint of castor
oil, they put him in that bar
rel, and then the sweat box,
the only legal place for
corporal punishment at that
time, and God knows that's
bad enough"
Pointing outside of a win
dow to a downpour of rain,
Durrance declared gentle
men it must have been on just
such a day as this they turn
ed Maulefert out in that bar
rel weighing 60 pounds on
his naked body"
Several old ladies in the
courtroom including Maille-
fert's mother wept visibly as
Durrance waved a chain be-
fore the jury and described
how the ''boy must have
choked to death after Hig-
ginbotham went to the sweat
box and frightened it up
another link. They played
with the boy like a cat with
a mouse. Like wolves around
sheep until at the end of
that chain he dangled in
death.
This boy was killed as
the indictment charges at
the hands of Courson and
Higginbotham. hanged by a
chain. You gentlemen can
say the state of Florida will
not be a party to such car
mage, and such deprayity as
this"
Arguments were conclud-
ed at / 30 when a recess for
lunch was taken, after which
the charge was given and the
case went to the jury.
