PLACE COPS ON
TRIAL IN Third
DECREE KILLING
Detective, Son of Robbers
Victim, to Be Called
Actual Slayer.
ByUnifed Press


MINEOLA, L. l., Aug. 25.-Five
Nassau county policemen are on
trial here, charged with killing Hy-
man Stark, an ex-convict, during
a police third degree.
On one side are the forces ar
raigned against the police tradi-
ton OF the third degree.
On the other are those who
maintained that anything a police
man might do to criminal was
justified.
Citizens had been divided into two
camps in the agitation for and
against twelve policemen charged
with having had part in the
beating administered in Nassau
county police headquarters.
The men on trial are charged with
manslaughter. The other seven,
charged with assault, will be tried
later.
Defense attorneys, in outlining
their cases to the jury, indicated
that all five would blame Stark S
death on Detective Joseph Hizenski,
son of Mrs. Joseph Hizenski, whom
Stark and two companions were al
legged 10 have beaten and robbed.
Three defense attorneys de-
scribed in vivid language HizenSki's
indignant approach to Stark, how
he seized his throat and hit him
before other police could pull him
off. HiZenski is one of the seven
charged with assault.
Prosecutor E. N. Edwards told the
jury that Stark's BODY was a mass
of welts and bruises.
He declared that Stark was taken
into the sound-proof rife range and
beaten with rubber hose.
He told of Deputy Police Chief

LEAGUE WARNS
WORLDS DEBTS
MUST Be CUT
Scaling Down Necessary to
Future of Trade, Is
Tenor of Survey.
BY STEWART BROWN
United Press Staff Correspondent

GENEVA, Aug. 25.-A warning to
the world that international obliga-
tions must be scaled down sub
stantially in the near future to
avoid shrinkage and possible ex-
tinction of international trade has
been issued by the League of Ma
tions in the first world economic
survey"
Considered one of the most COM
prehens.ve and authoritative studies
of its kind since the World war, the
survey was issued by the financial
and economic intelligence service of
the league, dealing especially With
the period of 1881 and the first half
of 1882.
No More MeddIing With Money
Three tendencies run through the
entire survey:
It is indicated that there must be
no more meddling with money, such
as occurred during recent periods
of def1ation, if the present economic
crisis is to be overcome.
The dangers of state intervention
as regards tariffs and subsidies are
emphasized. The United States
tariff restricted the possibilities Of
direct payment of debt obligations
and was the precursor of serious
construction of international trade"
the survey says.
Dark Picture Painted
The survey points out a necessity
for greater t1uidity in the economic
system to be brought about by re
ducing the influence of trade unions
and monopolistic tendencies of all

coming out of the range, sweating
and putting from great exertion.
He accused Tappen of saying:
That's the toughest - -
1 ever saw. I put one fool on his
throat and the other on his stom-
ach and rocked back and forth, and
not chirp out of him"
Stark's death was due directly to
a fractured larynx.

ant Jesse B. Mayforth, detectives

TOUGH COFFIN COURSE
TO BE MADE EASIER
Thick Hedges to Be Planted Along
Water Holes to Save Balls.

NdbCI IIOlCS W Save DdilSs
Local golfers who practically had
discarded the game after a round of
the new Coffin municipal course,
designed to be one of the sporJiest
in the state, are expected to be won
back following announcement today
by A. c. Sallee, park superintend-
ent, that the course will be made
easier by several changes.
Thick hedges will be planted
along the waters edge at island
holes to prevent golf ba Is from
going into the water. There will
be a penalty for reno ing balls
from the hedge, but il is believed
this plan vii decrease the number
of lost balls.
At No. hole, the tee has been
moved to decrease the drive over
water to about twenty-five yards,
although the former tee, requiring
a 120-yard water drive will remain
for players wishing the more diff
cult shot. Rough todering fairways
also will be Smoothed out.

In a surprisingly short time such

kinds to prevent normal economic
forces from functioning.
The picture painted by the sur
vey is not an optimistic one and
it declares that the maldistribution
of the worlds gold reserves, held
chiefly by the United States and
France, renders restoration of the
gold standard very difficult pro-
cess for many countries
1t adds, however. that return to
the gold standard would benefit all
nations in the long run.

Kept in Quarantine

BY Hitler'S plan. they must be
kept under quarantine for time
and then they can be married. The
quarantine is to make sure this
tainted blood has not cropped up
again.
The third class would occupy an
unfortunate station in life. They
would be those girls of mixed par
entage, such as a German father and
a Slav mother
While they can marry low-claSs
males, the marriage must be child
less. Both must submit to sterili-
zation before the ceremony is per-
formed.
Jewish girls would comprise the
fourth and lowest class. They would
be forbidden to marry, even with
men Of their own race.
Herr Hitler is determined that
there shall be no increase in the
Jewish population in Germany and
he Is rather pleased with his plan
to eliminate Jewish babies for all
time.

cipal roles along with regular screen
players.
He has a plot that was seven years
in its forming, and that is truly and
legitimately different from anything
screen or stage has ever seen. He
has, in this amazing picture, proof
that there really is something new
under the sun.
The plot, based on Tod Robbins
story, Spurs" concerns a trapeze
performer in a circus, who marrieS
a midget in a scheme to get his for
tune, and thus brings down on her
self and her illicit lover the dread
vengeance of the world of the freaks,
a people apart.
Olga Baclanova plays the exotic
charmer of the trapeze, and Harry
Earles, of "Unholy Three" fame, en-
acts the midget against whom she
plots. Hers is a fiery role that she
plays with abandon.
Leila Hyams and Wallace Ford
have the love interest as the seal
trainer and the clown, and Daisy
Earles, also a midget, plays opposite
her brother Harry. Henry Victor is
compelling as the sinister Strong
Man, Hercules, and comedy is con-
tributed by Rosco Ates playing OPP
poSite Daisy and Violet Hilton, the
famous Siamese Twins.
The freaks in their roles are le-
especially Johnny Eek,
the half boy, who, walking on his
hands, plays great dramatic role.
Others in the cast of freaks are
the Living Torso; Schlitzie,
last of the Aztecs"; the Snow
Twins, Pin Heads; Joseph-Jose-
phine, Half Man-Half Woman;
Olga, the Bearded Woman; Pete
Living Skeleton; Martha,
Armless Marvel; Koo Coo, the Girl
from Mars" and many others.
For the laugh side of the program,
the Palace will present Stan Laurel
and his jovial pal, Oliver Hardy, in
their newest Metro-G oldwyn- Mayer
comedy riot, "Helpmates," in which
the troublesome Stan attempts to
assist his equally troublesome friend,
Oliver, out of their many difficulties.
Also on the bill will be the latest

JOAN BENNETT
RETURNS TO SCREEN

Joan Bennett will return to the
Apollo theater screen Friday, when
the Fox production, "She Wanted a
Millionaire" opens an engagement
OF seven days. Miss Bennett has
been absent from the cinema for
some months recuperating from a
serious injury received while max
ing one of the more dramatic Sc
quences of the picture.
And according to reports from
Hollywood the diminutive blond
actress mounted the same horse
from which she was thrown months
previous and pluckily finished the
production.
The story concerns factory girl
in the old home town, played by
Miss Bennett, who refuses the love
of Spencer Tracy, her sweetheart, in
a cold blooded resolve to marry
nothing less than millionaire. Her
seeming rise to the heights of desire
begins with her being named Miss
Missouri, with trip to represent
the state at Atlantic City as the re-
ward.
There she meets James Kirkwood,
In the role of the millionaire and
one of the judges of the contest,
whom she marries for the luxurieS
he can provide. It takes but a year
OF this lovelesS mating to show her
the folly of her decision, after which
the dramatic murder Of her husband
brings about the startling climax of
her young life.
She Wanted a Millionaire" which
is directed by John Blystone, fea-
lures Una Merkel, Dorothy Peterson

LEGISLATIVE AID
is VIEWED NEXT
JOBLESS STEP
Hoover Worker Sees Need
of Action by States
in Crisis.

State legislative aid will be the
next step to be taken by many
states as a way to improve unem-
ployment where local relief re-
sources are being exhausted, Row.
land Haynes, regional adviser Of
President Hoover's unemployment
committee, said today.
Haynes is in indianapolis to
speak at the Indianapolis Com
munity Fund dinner at the Clay
pool tonight.
"T'he spring ease-up with the
opening of public building activities
and public works programs may
not be as great this spring as it
was last spring." Haynes said.
''Many cities are facing exhaustion
of their tax resources"
Haynes said there is a long job
of reorganization ahead.
Government agencies probably
will stay in the relief field for some
time" he said.
In his travels through the eleven
states, chiefly along the Ohio and
Mississippi rivers, Haynes said
greater action is expected by states
in "untying the hands of relief
agencies" by permitting them to re-
arrange their budgets more effec-
lively.
The number of totally unem-
ployed in the nation was estimated
at about 100000, by Haynes.
Farming to produce food for
home consumption will be taken up
by many more persons this spring,
Haynes believes.
