PACT DENIAL

HITS PARIS
Downing Street Says Aim Is
Not at U. S.; Statement
"CorreCtS" Herriot

LONDON, July IA QN.S.).
The British government this
afternoon officially denied
that the new Anglo-French
entente, disclosed yesterday,
represented an attempt by
France and Great Britain to
present a united front against
the United States in the matter
of war debt settlement.
A government statement, evil
IDENTIFY inspired by Premier Ed
Guard Herriot's speech to the
French Chamber of Deputies com
mittee yesterday, said:
'In connection with the re-
4pOrtswhich has been put in cir
cuIatiOn as to the Interpretation
Of the AnglO-French declaration
to which other governments
have been invited to adhere,
there is no truth in the state
ment that it is applicable to
the question of British debts to
the United States"
HerriOt Corrected"
The statement was issued from
No. 10 Downing ST., the residence
of Premier Macdonald. few
hours after a government spokes-
man had indicated displeasure at
Premier Herriot's "misinterpreta-
ton" to the chamber committee.
The statement continued:
"The use in the declaration
Of the words European regime
expressly excludes from its pur-
view any questions affecting
nOn-EurOpean countries.
con the whole question, the
prime minister explained the
governments position authOrita-
lively in his speech in the
House of Commons Tuesday
evening when he said:

America that at Lausanne
Europe has combined to pre-

WINSTON SALEM, N. c.,
July IA (I.N.S.).-The possi-
bility that a professional gun
man killed Smith Reynolds,
20-year-old heir to millions,
was being investigated today
by the authorities.
Young Reynolds during his i'm.
petuo'1S courting of Libby Hol-
man, musical comedy singing
star. was a we'll known figure
along Broadway and was known
as the Carolina millionaire kid.
The theory was considered that
during his visits to New York or
Florida he was spotted" by rack.
eteers who attempted to extort
money from him.
Old Plot Suspected
Officials conjectured that the
plot may have originated a long
time ago. even several years ago.
There is ample evidence that
Smith Reynolds was mortally
afraid of something and contin-
ually carried gun to protect
himself.
Sometime after the Shot was
fired which killed Reynolds on
the sleeping porch of his sub
urban mansion, International
News Service learned that thud
was heard outside the house as If
a person had dropped from a tree
or balcony.
A. Clint Wharton, superintend.
ent of the estate, heard the noise.
He also thought he heard the
sound of breaking tree branch
accompany the thud.
The presence of a possible in
truder was indicated by the teSti-
mony at the inquest of r. Ray
mond Kramer, instructor IN
mathematics to Reynolds, who
was at the house on the night of
the party which ended in tragedy.
Automobile Recalled
Kramer testified that Reynolds
asked him at 10:30 D. m. if he
had not heard a strange auto
mobile near the house. Reynolds
said that a machine had driven
up in front of the north side of
the house and stopped.
Mrs. Libby Holman Reynolds,
widow of the dead boy, testified
that her young husband had al
ways been afraid of kidnapers.
She said that several times we
heard footsteps outside the
house."
The sleeping porch on which
the crime occurred opens on a
balcony about Is feet above the
ground. There is a cedar tree
opposite the balcony.
Officials pointed out that a
could have reached the
balcony from the tree, COM
mitted the crime, and hidden
until the coast was clear.
The mythica. intruder might
have had his escape temporarily

CURTIS BLOCKS
REPEAL BILL

The Democratic effort to force
action on the Glass proposal to
repeal the Eighteenth Amend
ment met another setback today
in the Senate. Senator Lewis
CD Of Illinois, sought to bring
up the Glass resolution but Vice
President Curtis ruled that it
was not in order.
Glass, an ardent dry, proposed
to repeal the amendment and to
substitute a clause against the
return of the saloon. Under his
plan, the States would have COM
plete control over the liquor traf-
fic within their own boundaries
subject to the proviso that sa-
looms should not be re-established.

Child in Wounded Mothers
Arms Escapes; Maryland
Mob EIudeS Police

Ambushing Roland's Carni-
val at Mechanicsville, Nd, an
unidentified gang early today
poured a stream of buckshot
and pistol bullets into the
group.
All of the twenty-odd members
of the carnival were wounded,
three of them so seriously thai
they were brought to the Casualty
Hospital at Washington for treat
ment.
bad Blood" Climax
Detachments of the Maryland
State Police were rushed from
Baltimore Laurel, and Waldorf
to the scene.
According to Policeman Harold
Serman, of the Waldorf sub.
station, who, with Policeman j. R..
Miller. was the first to reach the
scene, the affray today was the
climax of severa! days of bad
blood" between the carnival group
and residents of the outlying
country around Mechanicsville.
The trouble started Saturday
night, Policeman Serman said,
when William Stanley, 81, Of
Four Oaks, N. c., was shot
through the stomach in a fight
between some of Roland's en1'
ployes and a gang from the
backWoods district near Mechan.
icsville. Stanley is recovering at
the Leonardtown Hospital.
CrOOkedneSs Charged
Residents of the Maryland
town said a number of patrons
of the carnival had protested
that the wheels and other games
of chance were crooked.
Police advanced the theory
that the ambush was due to this
bad blood" plus corn whiskey.
When they reached Mechanics
vile, they found the carnival
party in a turmoil of fear but
the aSsailants had vanished.
The attack opened without
warning just as the carnival was
ready to leave after weeks
stand. Firing opened from all
sides and ceased as Unexpectedly
as it came.
Frank Blizzard. 80, of Escadale,
w. Va. received several buckshot
wounds in his body.
Child Escapes
His wife, Mrs. Anna Blizzard,
%, police said, had a baby in her
arms when the shooting began.
The child escaped injury, but she
was wounded about the body.
Clarence Vesta, %, of Greensburg,
Pa, also received several buck
shot. These three were treated
at Casualty Hospital and re-
leased.
The other carnival employees,
several women and
children. none of whom escaped
were treated by doc
tors Of the vicinity.
The State police stayed with
the carnival group until they left
just after dawn. They were un-
able to find any trace of the am.
bushers.

anti-prohibitionists said: "We
will support the party that comes
out for direct repeal" And
they would, if it had been the
Republican party. But, as luck
would have it, it was those
"mangy" Democrats instead.
Now most of these women are
wealthy Republicans. And they
are having a time now trying to
get out of it. The ladies want
prohibition repealed all right,
but not bad enough to repeal the
