PORTER'S NAME
WILL APPEAR ON
RECALL BALLOTS

LOS ANGELES, April ID U.P)-
Mayor John G. Porters name will
be among those to be voted OF
when Los Angeles voters go to the
polls in a recall election against
him May 3, the second district
court of appeals ruled in a de-
cision on file today.
The court, in handing down the
decision, denied two petitions for
writ of mandates to compel City
Clerk Robert Dominguez to keep
Porter's name from he ballot.
Petitioners in their briefs con-
tended a provision governing re-
call elections in the state consti-
tuition forbid the object of recall
movement from automatically be-
coming a candidate as provided for
in the Los Angeles city charter.
Attorneys for Dominguez and
Porter were upheld by the court
in their arguments that charters
granted joy the state legislature are
exempt from provisions of the con-
stitution.
AS a result of the decision
Porter must only win a plurality
of votes at the election instead of
a majority that would have been
necessary had the court ruled
against him and forced his sup
porterS to have filed nominating
petitions.
Coincident with the ruling was
the announcement of former
mayor, George C. Cryer, that he
had withdrawn from the mayor
atty race. This leaves nine candi-
dates in the field besides Porter.

SWING WORKING
UPON SOUTHERN
AIRMAgL ROUTE
By Cowan

That favorable action will be
taken by the federal government
soon relative to the establishment
of the southern airway is the belief
of Congressman Phil D. Swing, ac-
cording to a letter which has been
received by the El Centro Chamber
of Commerce. Swing states, "I
have continued to press Second
Assistant Postmaster General Clio
yer for the prompt establishment
of the southern route. He advises
that he is in turn working on an
agreement with the American Air
ways to have them begin operation
of the route to San Diego. There
is, of course, some detail with ref
erence to compensation which must
be worked out, but l am told by
Gen. Glover that he is hopeful of
getting this route started even in
the face of the very grave cuts
that have been made i'll his depart
ment as in every other department
of the government"
The southern airmail was orig
inally routed from San Diego,
through Imperial Valley, to Phoe-
nix, but, pending lighting of this
route. the mail has been flown
from Los Angeles direct to Phoe-
nix. The Ell Centre Chamber of
Commerce has prepared resolutions
urging that the route outlined in
the original contract be followed
and Congressman Swing has done
much in Washington to see that
the original contract will be carried
out now that the southern route
from San Diego, via Imperial VAL
ley to Phoenix, is lighted and
ready for night flights.
A number of resolutions prepared
by the El Centro chamber were
sent to various western chambers
and to those of cities along the
route of the southern air mail, urg-
ing support for the originally deS-
ignated route. These resolutions
have been adopted and forwarded
to Washington by the Los Angeles
Chamber of Commerce and the
San Diego Chamber of commerce.
Aid Expected
Leo HetZel, who represented FL
Centro and Imperial Valley at the
recent meeting of the aeronautical
committee of the state chamber,
states that that body has reso-
luton similar to that prepared by
the Ell Centro chamber under con-
Sideration and that he gained the
impression that the state chamber
would take action in the matter in
accord with the wishes of the Ell
Centro chamber and others that
have endorsed it.
On a recent trip to Los Angeles
Robert Hays, manager of the El
Centre chamber, called on officials
of the American AirWays in Los
Angeles, and urged that company
to initiate air passenger service
between San Diego, Imperial VAL
ley and Phoenix Immediately in
order that the business built up
by the Century Pacific lines, which
operated through here for a year
prior to their purchase by the
American Always, might not be
lost. Hays states that the officials
/ of the American Always spoke
favorably in connection with the
establishment of the air paSSen-

PLANS Jury PROBE
IN KIDNAPPING CASE
South Bend, Ind, Prosecutor
Believes Ransom Was
Paid or Promised.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SOUTH BEND, Ind, January %
The st. Joseph County grand jury may
be asked to investigate the reported
kidnapping of Howard A. Woolverton.
Samuel P. Schwartz, prosecuting at
torney, said last night he planned to
question the 52-year-old business man,
who returned to his home Wednesday
night. reporting that men who abducted
him "a hours previously and demanded
$1,000 ransom had released him at
Michigan City without payment being
made.
Referring to what he termed CON
fuSing details" and declaring he be-
heved a ransom payment either had
been made or promised, Schwartz said
1T 1 am unable to obtain satisfactory
explanations of all angles of the case,
will place the matter before the grand
jury"
Meanwhile, Chief of Police John B.
Keuspert, frankly displeased with what
he said was refusal of the Woolverton
family to cooperate with his depart
ment, said his forces would continue an
investigation until all clues had been
exhausted.
Woolverton said he came to South
Bend on an interurban after being re-
leased at Michigan City. Otto BartelS,
interurban conductor, declared he did
not recall seeing any passenger rescm-
bling Photographs of WoolVerton board
the car at Michigan City.
Another angle that remained to be
cleared up was the statement Of State
Police Chief Grover Carrot that one Of
his men met Woolverton at the inter
urban station. This was denied by mem
bers of the Woolverton family, who
said they had no advance information
of the manufacturers return.

men and women of America interested

which can be supported. That there
must be a change so that the lawless-

criminal activities will not seem to be
a thing condoned by our people is not
questioned.
Not only do I ask the support OF all
forward-looking citizens to help change
law that has proved impossible OF en-
forcement, but, after that, I earnestly
urge their support in helping to evolve
the proper methods for the handling OF
the liquor traffic"

|HOME LOAN BOARD
CUTS OUT HEARINGS
Speed Held More Necessary
Than Long Conferences on
Location of Banks.

The Federal Home Loan Board will
not hold hearings on selection of bank
cities and districts because of the "im-
perative need of getting the banks
opened" without delay.
This statement was made late yester-
day following earlier announcement that
a stock selling campaign will be insti-
tuted to secure initial capital for the
8 to IL institutions to be set up over
the country.
Under the law, statement from the
board explained, mo bank can be OPEN
ed for 80 days after selection of the
districts The imperative need of get
ting the banks opened seems to the
board to preclude taking the time which
such hearings would consume"
The board has had hundreds of re-
quests for hearings.
Members of the board are going into
the East and Middle West this week to
