All remember the prideful Pharisee
who thanked God that he was not as
other men were. Nevertheless, and with
all due respect to the big-heartedness of
traffic authorities, their last-moment
leniency to the deliberately tardy makes
those motorists who were prompt in OBJ
tanning titles and licenses feel just a
mite peeved and, what is worse, tempted
to take their own sweet time another

Britain and America
viii Pay for Tariff Barriers.

LIE Journal, Paris-Great Britain
and America, in raising tariff barriers
against the countries with which they
have so long carried on trade, seem to
forget that these former customers are
not all imbued with such a benevolent
feeling that they will continue to pur-
chase goods from nations which SO dis
criminate against them. In fact, be-
cause of such policies of restricting in
ternational trade, exterior nations could
not buy from them even if they de-
sired to do so, for a nation cannot con-
tinue to buy when markets for disposing
of its own products no longer exist
Great Britain, for instance. wishes to
sell to France. even though she buys
nothing more from her. Such a scheme
of things is intolerable and impossible.
There must be proper equilibrium be-
tween all exporting nations in the
matter of reciprocal trading. France,
in particular, should be accorded such
reasonable treatment by her former
customers, for when her foreign trade
languishes all foreign trade languishes.

Cortes Committee Asks
Banishment for Alfonso.
AB c, Madrid.-The committee ap-
pointed by the Cortes to examine into
the conduct and responsibility Of the
ex-king during his tenure of the mon
archy has delivered its report The
delinquencieS of Don Alfonso de Bor-
bon, according to the findings of this
commission, were many and varied
while he was the constitutional he2C
of the government, and not less dur
ing the period of dictatorship which he
appointed. Don Alfonso stands con-
Wcted of malfeaSance, incompetence
and extravaganza, both in his public
and private relations. He is found
culpable of at least technical treason
to his people in that he made tht
national interest subordinate TO his
own.
The penalty demanded for Dor
Alfonso's misdeeds is perpetual Danish
ment of himself and his family, and
confiscation of all his property ano
estates in Spain. the proceeds from the
sale or other disposition OF Whlch IS tC
be used for the indemnification of those
who were the most severely afflicted
under the determinations of his sway
Chief of these now to be Succored in
recompense for past hardShips are the
unemployed and those unjustly per-
secuted under the monarchy.
Don Eduardo Ortego y GaSSet, the
chairman of the committee, announced
that all ambassadors of the republic ir
foreign countries will be officially ad-
viSed of these decisions as soon as they
are ratified by the Cortes. A minority
report, signed by Don Antonio Royc
Villanova, and Don Jose Centeno, sub
mitted that inasmuch as the constitu-
tion and the royal function and pre-
rogative were suspended under the dic-
tatorship beginning in 1928 Don Al
fonso could not be justly held account
able for the performances of the gov
ernment during that interval. To de-
prive him Of all his hcnOrs and titles
should be punishment severe enough
Above all he should not be threatened
with trial or death in the event of his
return to Spain.

Daily Report Of
Stock Markets

NEW YORK, March 4. UP
Stock prices were unsettled today
after the General Electric COM
pany reduced its common dividend
from $1.60 to 81 annually. Heavy
selling spread throughout the list.
Because the reduction was more
drastic than was generally ex-
pected, many traders unloaded
stocks. Moderate early gains were
quickly erased and small losses
substituted. The effect of the div
idend cut soon wore off, however,
and leading stocks again began to
climb up toward the close.
The market as a whole had dis
played a confident tone in the first
four hours of trading but turned
decidedly arratic in the final hour.
Many stocks ignored the unset
tlement in the general market.

which Marion shot Garcia. The
nature of his testimony was not

On only one occasion yesterday
was the defense able to get in a

Then was when Mrs. Livingston

and taken when she was not under

all gave way yesterday afternoon
as Sharp and Mrs. Livingston
paved the way for confessions by
Mr.. and Mrs. Marion, and as the
confessions were read. The defend
ants sat quietly as they heard their
own words, instrumental in OBJ
tanning a grand jury indictment
ana bringing them to trial.
One discrepancy was noted be-
tween the confession of Marion
and that of his wife While Mar
ron said, in the statement, that he
and his wife were getting ready to
come home, and had the car in
second gear, when Garcia passed
them on the night of December
II, his wife said they had stopped,
and were parked beside the roaG
waiting for Garcia Marron's
statement was that he believed
Garcia was not coming, since he
had not yet arrived, and had tired
Of waiting.
Plot Related
The story of the killing, as
pieced together from the two
statements, was this, in brief:
On the afternoon of December
12, Mr.. and Mrs. Marion left
driving on the Calexico
cutoff to the railroad tracks west
Of Yuma, and there turning and
coming back to a point just west
Of Midway Wells, where they
parked and waited for Garcia,
whom they believed to be driving
10 Calexico from San Luis on the
Arizona border.
Shortly after dark, or about s
o'clock, Garcia passed the Maron's
parked car. Mrs. Marion was driy-
ing. Her husband told her to over
take Garcia, first climbing into
the rumble seat with his shotgun.
Mrs. Marion was able easily to
overtake Garcia. She piloted the
car alongside that Of
Garcia. Her husband took aim
and fired from the rumble seat.
Garcia, load Of buckshot lodged
in the back of his brain, slumped
forward Marion fired two more
times and Garcia'S driverless car
veered from the highway across
the desert, coming to stop about
100 feet from the pavement.
Marion shouted for his wife to
stop. He got out, went TO the
Garcia automobile, and struck
several matches, pushing Garcia
over onto the seat of his coupe
10 be sure he was dead. He car
ried an automatic pistol, to shoot
Garcia again in case the Mexican
was not dead.
Following the shooting, Mr.. and
Mrs. Marion returned to Calexico
washed and dressed, and went to
a motion picture show. 1t was a
comedy.
