told police he has arranged for
shelter for approximately 900 Of
the marchers in private homes.
No provision has been made for
the others. Benjamin estimated
approximately $500 marcherS
will arrive here tomorrow.
Request Is Denied
A last-minute appeal for free
lodgings for the hunger army
made to officials of Public Build
ings and Parks and the Welfare
and Recreational Association by
Herbert Benjamin appeared
doomed to failure today.
Requested to turn over the Dis
trict Tourist Camp to the hunger
invaders, Capt. H. w. Hoover,
manager of the Welfare and
Recreational Association. denied
the Communists demands.
In explanation he said repairs
being made for the winter have
considerably reduced the number
of cabins tenantable. Further
more, he pointed out, the Wei
fare Association has already
agreed to house $50 members Of
the farmers march from Tuesday
until Saturday.
Again Meet Rebuff
From Captain Hoover'S office
Benjamin and a companion at
tempted to see Lieut.. Col. U. S.
Grant, director of Public Build
ings and Parks, to secure permis-
sion to use vacant Government
structures.
In his absence they were re-
ceived by Capt. E. N. Chisolm,
jr., who declared the Office of
Public Buildings and Parks is
unable to permit use Of Govern
ment buildings by private groups
unless with specific approval of
Congress.
His office does have jGrisdic-
ton over a few dwelling houses
available for housing needy per-
sons, but these are all filled
with needy District residents, he
pointed out.
Benjamin is also understood to
have promised that food will be
provided for the hunger army.
The march leaders have leased
a site for a central kitchen, where
food will be prepared for diStri-
button to the marcherS.
Tourist Camp Sought
Upon arrival of the hunger
army tomorrow it will be met at
the District line by police escorts
and conducted to some central
point. the location of which has
not yet been determined.
Major Brown said this arrange.
ment was agreed to by Benjamin,
who asked that the march be
routed so as to avoid traffic con-
geStion.
On leaving police headquarters,
Benjamin and Reynolds announced
their intention of comforting with
Capt. D. o. Hickey, commander
of U. S. Park Police, and other
park authorities.
They are expected to request
use of the tourist camp for park,
ing the marchers' trucks, among
other things.
Fails to Get Warehouse
Benjamin yesterday made II
known that he had faileo in
efforts to obtain the use Of a
large warehouse in the North
east section of the city for the
marcherS and added that he
had met similar failure in the
case of seven other buildings

DEPORTATION OF

COURT APPROVAL

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-(U.R)-
Yasuji Fugita's vision of wrestling
his way through sociology, English
and physica. training in an Amer
ican university faded today when
the supreme court approved depor-
tation proceedings against him.
Fugita entered the country when
% years old as visitor from Japan
in 1926. He was inspired by an
uncle in Los Angeles to take back
a higher education to his people.
He re-entered the country from
Vancouver and registered at var
ious times in Whittier College, Pas
adena college, and the Seattle,
Wash, Y. M. G. A. School.
He progressed we'll in physical
training and sociology, but he had
a hard time learning English, 1t
took him a long time to progress.
Summers he spent appearing in the
wrestling ring in the west.
Finally the LABOR department.
held that his scholastic enrolment
was not in good faith and ordered
him deported. It's ruling was ap-
proved by the San Francisco fed
eral court.

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-U.P(-The
Scripps-H Howard newspapers an
nounced today their support, with
reservation, of Franklin D. Roose-
velts presidential candidacy.
The same newspapers in 1928 sup
ported the candidacy of Herbert
Hoover, and this year, prior to the
Democratic convention, they urged
the nomination of Alfred E. Smith.
Today, they said in an editorial
headed Where We Stand on Roos-
evelt" that "We believe the nation
will be better served if the Hoover
administration is not returned
that it has been and is an admin
istration of failure"
whether Roosevelt adminstra-
ton can meet the challenge of the
national crisis we do not know. We
merely know that he and his party
offer a fresh start and we believe,
a better chance"
They could not "underwrite a
Roosevelt administration in ad-
vance, they said, because "Roose-
velt has yet to prove himself a
great leader" and the "men in his
party with whom he must work in
congress have yet to demonstrate

GROUP URGES
PRESIDENT TO
REDUCE TARIFF

WASHINGTON, Oct. II. U.H-A
group of 180 economists, holding
that the prediction of two years
ago as to the Smoot- -Hawley tariff
had been borne out by the slump
in foreign trade, has petitioned
President Hoover to bring about it's
revision.
The economists, representing SO
colleges and universities were
among those who had asked the
President to veto the Smoot-Haw-
ley bill on grounds it would result
in retaliatory rates by other coun-
tries and would have disastrous
effect on foreign trade.
The new petition reached the
White House a few hours before
the President had returned from
Cleveland, where he had defended
Republican protective tariff poll
cies in his campaign speech.
The President was asked to make
use of his powers under the flex-
ible tariff provisions to reduce
inequalities" He was urged to
negotiate with foreign countries
toward reducing "the virtual en-
barge" tariff rates.

HOLTVILLE MAN
not CONNECTED
WITH ROBBERY

That the C. A. NARROW arrested
at San Diego last Friday on a
charge of robbery is not the same
man convicted here of contributing
to the delinquency of minor was
the statement today of officials at
the sheriff's office.
One Imperial Valley newspaper
had identified NARROW as the
Holtville man convicted in Judge
A. c. Finneys court, but this was
denied today.
The NARROW arrested at San Di-
ego is a former sailor, and a res
ident of the coast town. He is
charged with robbing Mrs. Hazel
Haskett, chain store cashier, of
$2700 by snatching satchel con-
tanning the money from her at the
corner of Broadway and Ninth
streets, San Diego, last Wednes-
day.
In the same account which iden-
titled NARROW as a Holtville man,
it was said he was charged with
robbing a messenger of the San
Diego and Arizona railroad.

One Killed In Attempt

OTHERS CONTROLLED
Lone Prisoner Manages
To Get Liberty During
Football Game.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. IT,
U.P)-One cofnvict was still at large
today after a prison outbreak that
began during a prison football game
and resulted in one convict being
killed and % others being wound
ed.
The outbreak began at 3.45 p.
m. yesterday. Prisoners taken to the
prison yard Ter exercise, were play
ing when 16 broke and tried to
scale the fence.
Guards started firing. Other con-
victs-about half the prisons pop
ulation of $40, according to War
den A. B. Smith-tried to take adj
vantage of the disorder. The
guards subdued them. One of the
original 16 escaped across the pri-
son farm.
Carl Singleton, of Marshall
county, was the convict killed He
was serving a one to two year SEN
tence for larceny and burglary.
Warden Smith said the wounded
were only slightly injured. The con-
vict who escaped was Reuben Tit
man Of Montgomery.
There was no feud at the pris-
on,' Warden Smith said. THE at
tempted break was prompted only
by the natural desire to escape.
The men thought they saw
chance to get away, and took it.
Everything was over by p. M
Smith said the usual routine had
been restored at the prison today.
Later it was revealed that 10 of
the Is men who were returned to
the prison after the attempted
break, were tricked by the warden.
The warden's home was across the
field from the prison, about Is
miles from here. When he heard
the shooting, he picked up a scrub
brush in the kitchen and ran to-
ward the scene.
Smith flourished the brush in his
coat pocket as if it were pistol
and herded the 10 uninjured men
back toward the prison gate. The
other five escaped but were caught
within a few moments with the
help of bloodhounds.

OPPOSITION TO
STAIN MEETS
QUICK ACTION
Soviet Moves To Gust
Leaders Against Pres
ent Chief.

MOSCOW, Oct. 1.-THE Soviet
campaign to remove leaders who
oppose Josef Stain was understood
today to have reached Nicholas
Harm, former secretary of the
Communist international, who was
reported placed under guard.
1t was understood that exile to
distant provinces was the best that
could be hoped for by Gregory
zinoviev, former head of the Com
munist international, and 81 other
prominent members expelled from
the party last week.
Bukharin's detention was not
confirmed officially, but whisper
ing galleries, working overtime,
placed him high on the list of
those out of official favor. Buk-
harin was removed from the cen
raj committee and the Politbureau
in 1890, but later reelected to the
committee. He was the recognized
leader of the right wing" oppos-
ition.
1t appeared that Bukharin had
been suspected of contracting in
surgents whose program in many
respects resembled the right op-
position of 1929, headed by Buk-
HARM, Ex-premier Alexei Rykov,
and Michael Tomsky, ex-head of
the Soviet Trade Union council.
Suspicion naturally fell on the
reformed followers of Leon Trot-
sky and members of the opposition
whose conversion" to Stalinism
was believed little more than skin
deep. Many reformed" leaders
have been ousted from the party or
denoted. Some have been given
another chance.
Apparently the first tip to the
secret police on the. opposition to
Stalin's program came from a
published by Russian
emigres in Berlin. The police
rounded up the alleged leaders
soon after.
Refusal of the central commit
tee to alter its policies on indus
trial construction and concessions
to peasants apparently drove the
to formulate an anti
Stain program. Discovery meant
expulsion and swift punishment
without the formalities and pub
lie discussion which preceded
Trotsky's exile, because disagree
ment with the central committees

political suicide.

ally as much as possible.
The Pacific coast trip still is in
the balance. Republican leaders
refused to admit that the tour is
definitely off, lending some cred
ence to reports the President will
make it as final gesture for the
vote of the far west.
1t would be entirely possible, of
course, for the President to speak
at Detroit or elsewhere in that
area next weekend, in New York
the following Saturday, October
30, and then proceed on out to
California on a strategic windup
which would put him at his home
in Palo Alto on the eve of the
election.
These are just a few of the con-
siderations now before the Presi-
dent and his political advisers.
All are being given careful thought
and no suggestion is being defin-
itely cast aside until they see how
the wind blows.
