HAWAIIAN QUARTET
TO CEASE EFFORT
FOR FULL PARDON
barrow Advises Them to Let
Matter Drop For Time, Seek
Citizenship Later

| Honolulu, May g. up Lieut..
Thomas H. Massie, his socially prom
inent mother-in-law Mrs. Granville
Fortescue and two navy men, may not
seek a pardon for their conviction of
manslaughter in the Staying of an
F.! Hawaiian.
The sentence of each, 10 years at
hard labor, was committed to one hour
by Governor Lawrence M. Judd Of
Hawaii. They served that in custody
; of the territorial high sheriff and were
not at any time confined in prison.
Then came the announcement full
pardon would be sought for the four,
tried for lynching native who al
legedly had confessed participation in
criminal attack on the naval off,
GERS wife. Mrs. Thalia Massie.
Indications were Friday that upon
the advice of Clarence Darrow. their
adviser and defender. they would dis
continue their efforts to obtain par
don.
Darrow denied he had ever asked
Governor Judd to pardon the convict
ed quartet, explaining newspapermen
had misunderstood" statement in
which he said they ought to have a
full pardon
Minimizing the Importance of
pardon, Darrow advised them late
Thursday night to let the matter
drop. He told them to accept Cover
nor Judd's communication of sentence
without seeking further relief at this
time. He suggested the restoration of
their citizenship rights-rights which
they did not regain by the commuta-
tion-be taken up later.
Although indicating that Massie,
Mrs. Fortescue and the two navy en-
listed men. E. j. Lord and Albert o.
Jones, we're anxious to be pardoned,
he also indicated they would be guild
ed by what he said.

enemies to redoubled exertion. Pres.
ident Hoover's Unexpectedly large
vote, coupled with other develop
ments, is greatly encouraging his
supporters.
Acknowledgment by Senator Nor
ris of Nebraska, last night, that he
would support Roosevelt ticket as
against Hoover was hardly a sur
prise. He deserted the Republicans
in favor of Smith in '28.
The Democrats have come to a
critical time. AS the California re-
turns rolled up the margin Of Speak
err John N. Gamers victory over
Roosevelt, many of the New York
governors opponents said, in their
haste and exuberance. that this was
the end of the Roosevelt boom. The
tendency has been to amend that
Judgment after more careful con-
sideration, but the search for q COM
promise candidate is going forward
with great diligence as the Roose-
welt men prepare to fill up the gaps
and carry on with more determine
ton than ever.
Among the favorite sons, the spec
ulation of the anti-Roosevelt lead
ers centers around Governor Albert
C.. Richie of Maryland. and Former
Governor Harry F. Byrd of Virginia.
There is even more talk, however, of
bringing definitely into the field
someone with no delegates pledged
to him, and trying out party opinion.
There is revival of discussion about
Newton D. Baker, Owen D. Young
and Melvin A. Traylor.
One Of the greatest evidences of the
dominant position still occupied BIZ
Roosevelt. however. lies in the fact
that nothing like an agreement is in
sight on any one candidate to oppose
him.
Gamers friends seem to have little
hope of nominating him, despite
California. Few responsible leaders
believed Alfred E. Smith can repeat.
The talk goes on, but it Is largely OF
the same old lines, getting nowhere
in particular.
Unquestionably California was
jolt to the Roosevelt cause. 1t means
there will be nothing cut and dried
about the nomination In advance o.
the convention. 1t does not mean.
however, that the Roosevelt drive has
stopped.
While California was giving Garner
its "a, and thus making him real
factor in the convention with an as
Of nearly 100 votes. South
Dakota and Alabama were presenting
Roosevelt with another "a. bringing
his total to 313. exclusive Of the big
disputed delegations from New York
and Pennsylvania
This total the Roosevelt people hope
to double within the next month. It
is an impressive figure, even as it
stands. for this season of the year.
The forecast is for very unsettled ana
trying weather when the convention
meets late in June
