BOOM TUNNEY.
FOR SENATE
ROLPH

NEW YORK, April % G.NSD.
Gene Tunney, former heavy
weight champion of the world, is
being suggested by his friends in
his home State of Connecticut as
good man to run for the United
States Senatorship.
The boom, now in its incip-
iency, may yet precipitate Tunney
into the field of politics as the
Democratic candidate against the
incumbent, Senator Hiram Bing-
ham.
Friends of Tunney say that
because of his war record he
would command the enthusiastic
support of many members of the
American Legion and the Veter-
ans of Foreign Wars.
They figure, too, that he could
poll a heavy vote in the in
dustrial cities where the economic
pinch has been felt.

Pay Cut Foes Show Growing
Strength; FurIough Plan
of Hoover Gains

A recalcitrant House late
today will make fresh assaults
on the $2OO,OOO,0OO economy
bill.
Party lines already have
been shattered to the extent
that the first alteration of it's
provisions eliminated $55, ,O0O,-
900 from planned saving in
Federal expenditures.
Opposition to the bill took its
first concrete form last night
when surly membership raised
the $1,000 exemption in the II
per cent pay cut plan of the
Economy Committee to $2,500
Britten Takes Lead
Under the revised schedule, pro
posed by Representative Fred L.
Britten (RD of Illinois, Federal
employees receiving less than
$4,000 would not be affected by
the pay reduction.
Democratic leaders who had
given their support to the bill
worked feveriShly to prevent rails
ing of the exemption, but when
the House voted 1876 to SO to adopt
it, they warned of impending
doom to the retrenchment meas
ure.
The defeat of the "gag-rule"
yesterday left the bill open for
any and all amendments, and
Representative Lindsay C. War
rem (DJ of North Carolina, who
is presiding over the debate, an
nounced he would recognize any
member for the submission of
amendments.

POSSE HUNTING
GIRL LATTACKER

LURAY, Va, April 28.-Nathan
sedwick, former county sheriff, to-
day asked that posses be called
off the hunt for Leon Fry, 17-year-
old colored youth accused of at
tacking a 10-year-old white girl
Tuesday afternoon.
The former sheriff said that he
would turn Fry over to the police
if the man hunt we're discon-
tinued. He has been Fry's en-
ployer ever since the latter was
small child.
He said he did not know where
Fry is, but expressed confidence
that he could find him.
Posses, however, today resumed
the search, which was kept up
the greater part of the night.
Fry is believed to be hiding in
the hills about the town, and
mountaineers familiar with every
valley and cave in that locality
are searching them with the ut
most care.
Fry was suspected at the time
of the attack and was actually
questioned by the authorities, but
there appeared to be insufficient
evidence then to hold him. Early
yesterday, too, when suspicion
was again turned upon him, he
was almost captured when Deputy
Sheriff Dave Fox shot at him
three times.
The victim of his attack is in
a serious condition.

DownCast Despite DarroW'S
Plea; Honolulu Police to
Avert Race Clashes

HONOLULU, T. H., April
% (I.N.S.).-With heavily
armed police forces in readi-
ness to quell any possible dis
turbances, Honolulu waited to-
day with a tenseness strange
to its tropical beauty for a
jury to pass judgment On four
Americans accused of the
"honor Staying" of a native.
The case against Mrs. Grace
Hubbard Fortesque, Lieut.. Thomas
H. Massie, and two Naval enlisted
men, Albert o. Jones and E. j.
Lord, was placed in the hands of
the IL men of widely varying
racial strains at 4:24 p. m. yes
terday.
The jury, giving no indications
OF its temper, was locked up for
the night at 10 p. M, and Judge
Charles s. Davis ordered court
to reconvene to hear what if any
verdict had been reached at 9
a. m. Honolulu time (2::30 p. m,
eastern standard time).
Eloquent Plea by Darrow
Ringing in the ears of the jury
men was one of the most elo-
quent pleas Of legal history. ard
possibly the last tn master de-
fender, .Clarer.s- barrow, may
ever make.
Playing on to dominant
chords-the "unwritten law" and
the insanity of Lieutenant Mas

Climaxing Darrow's tender
speech, Prosecutor John C. Kelley
demanded claw enforcement and
justice"
Honolulu showed no signs of
racial feeling, but nevertheless
dusky uniformed officers with
pistols at their belts patrolled the
Hall of the Chiefs scene of the
trial.
Lieutenant Massie DOwncast
Two police radio automobiles
equipped with machine guns we're
parked near the building and the
naval yard patrol was held in
readiness.
The four defendants waited in
their hotels, apprehensive, their
friends said, of a conviction, al
though the street discussion in
Honolulu leaned towards a hung
jury, if not acquittal.
Lieut.. Massie was particularly
downcast. It was he who took
the blame for the killing of
Joseph Kahahawai, accused ring
leader of the five men who at
tackled his beautiful young wife.
An officer friend said:
Tommy is afraid that he
will be convicted and get the

to bring in separate verdicts OH

charged of second degree muir

Ship at Norfolk Ready to
Steam at Once for
New Contact

TRENTON, N. j., April 28
(I.N.S.). - Col. Charles A.
Lindbergh may 60 on the
cruise planned by the Norfolk,
Va, emissaries in the Lind
bergh baby kidnapping case as
the climax to their efforts to
establish contact with the cap
tors, it was reported today.
Within 4S hours, John H. Cur
tbs, chief of the trio of inter
mediaries, is expected to put to
sea in the yacht Maroon. On his
return from a mysterious trip yes
terday, he telephoned from Nor
folk to Lindbergh and talked to
him for 20 minutes.
The fact that Lindbergh was
not seen about his home on Sour
land Mountain was interpreted as
a sign he had left for Norfolk.
Notification of this could not be
obtained.
NORFOLK, April % QNS0.
Negotiations of the Norfolk group
seeking recovery of the Lindbergh
baby were approaching their eli
max today, if appearances meant
anything.
This climax, whether it means
delivery Of the child or an aban-
donment of their work as futile,
was not necessarily matter OF
hours, or even of one or two
days.
The nearest thing to a con-
elusive prediction on the part of
anyone connected with the nego-
tiations here was that the next
two trips of the yacht Maroon,
which has been at the disposal
Of the negotiators since last
Thursday. would tell the story of
success or failure.
Seem on Right Track
International News Service to-
day secured, for the first time,
and from what appeared to be
as nearly as possible a level
headed and informed source, as
Surance that the Norfolk group
are on the right track.
The Maroon probably will make
two trips before an end to the
Norfolk negotiations will be seen.
The first seemed likely to get
under way today. Predictions say
the trip planned for today will be
brief.
John Hughes Curtis, chief of
the Norfolk negotiators, was here
until late hour last night, after
a two-and a-half-day cruise on the
Maroon, during which he and his
associate, Edwin B. Bruce, re-
tired Elmira IN. " banker, ad-
mittedly overcame "a number of
obstacles" in the way to a sue
cessful conclusion to negotiations.
Yacht Ready to Put Off
Today the Maroon, anchored
at the Norfolk naval base, we'll

is ready to go to sea again.
Her skipper, Capt. Frank H.
Lackmann, expected the pleasure
craft would leave today. He indi-
Gated strongly any cruise would
be for the purpose of communi-
eating to the men with whom
Curtis and his associate are deal
ing some sort of message from
Colonel Lindbergh.

of a gun wound inflicted by a

with his pitiful story of poverty

freedom, saying that it was his
first robbery and that he had
done it to get funds for his sick
wife. Harris told him to leave.

present crisis. 1t would be an adapta-
ton of the Council of National De-
Tense which came into existence dur
ing wartime emergency. 1t is re-
ported that many of the national
leaders active in the war council are
ready to participate in this peace
time movement. Authority for the
Council of National Defense remains
unchanged. The act provides for six
Cabinet officers to preside with the
Secretary of War as chairman. It is
reported that President Hoover, who
participated as Food Administrator, is
adverse to the current proposals. 1t
is a measure which may be forced
unless the legislative acts passed by
the Congress bring the desired
changes.
The failure of the Senate and House
to accept proposals for a manufac-
turers' excise tax has been disappoint-
ing to business groups. The opinion
is growing that the special taxes i'm
posed on industries and varied classes
of citizens will result in nationwide
dissatisfaction against the taxation
system. 1t is the belief of the pro-
ponents of the plan that the manu-
facturers' tax will eventually be SUBJ
stituted for the present haphazard
scheme. The principal objection to
the general tax plan has arisen among
labor unions and farm groups. If the
taxation method now authorized by
Congress is as discriminatory as al
legged in debates here, the farmer
labor groups are expected to about
face. Treasury officials have insisted
that with a fixed percentage of man
ufactured goods which could not be
pyramided, it would be easy to esti-
mate revenues by simply broadening
the base, that is lowering or raising
the percentage of tax on each article
produced.
The gathering of the bonus army"
here is riveting public attention on
the effects of unemployment. Yet,
the visit is not stimulating Congress
sional action on bonus legislation.
The sentiment at the Capitol is that
the nations finances do not permit
the expenditure of hundreds of mil
lions to veterans at this time. 1t is
an agitation that was destined for
futility. Many visitors could not &C
tually qualify as war service men
but come for the excitement.
