MAYFL0WER BOND
j CASE TO BE RETIRED
Change in Securities Values Since
1929 Taken Into Considera-
ton by Judge.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, April 30.-The change
in securities values since the stock mar
ket crash Of 1929 was taken into con-
sideration by Federal Judge Nelson Nc
Vicar today in granting a new trial to
four officials of the American Bond and
Mortgage Co.
William j. Moore and his sons, Harold
A., Kenneth w. and Charles c., were
convicted February 25 of conspiracy
and misuse of the mails in connection
with the sale of second mortgage bonds
Of the Mayhower Hotel, Washington,
D. c.
Judge McVicar ruled that the evi-
dence against them was wholly cir
cumstantial' and that the court should
have given binding instructions for ac-
Quittal.
The court said the inference could be
drawn that the defendants believed the
bonds on the Mayfower Hotel Co. prop
erty were good, sound and merchant
able bonds, which would be income-pro-
oucing investments until paid"

NO ROOSEVELT BREAK YET.

We have passed the middle of September The Maine election is out of the way. Seven weeks from Tuesday it will be all over, and the Roosevelt break has not occurred yet. There is a lot Of evidence to indicate that the people had made up their minds how they were going to vote sometime ago And the indications are as was suggested by Gov. Scott c. Bone in an article printed in The Empire that they had decided upon a cnange last June and July. He said with reason it IS true that they had decided upon a change Tn July they still feel that way about it. and the decision will make itself evident in the ballot boxes in November
 In the meantime the Roosevelt majority in the poll of the Hearst papers continues to increase though the percentage of the lead has fallen off fn some instances He still holds commanding leads tn 3s Of the zs States

Saying It Again.
Boston News Bureau.)

A wave of resentment at and opposition to high taxes is steadily rising Some of it's mani festations small and scattered as in local tax probes and rebellions. Others are more general in their condemnation. Witness two more that have just emerged
 At almost the time that the New York State Legion Convention voted for immediate bonus payment-over State and National Commanders protest and by a divided vote-Rear- Admiral Byrd as Chairman of the National Economy League de- lyered another broadside against governmental waste, beginning with non-service gratuties to veterans
 Pointing out that six billions have already been expended on veteran account, or at rate which by 1945 would reach s2l 500 100000 or the cost of the war, he stressed the simple but outstanding fact that $1400 100000 Tor one-fourth of the total n- come of the 12O,0oo0O0 people of this country" is used up in "our wild Government money spend ing" and that the country cannot stand this for long"
 Writing in the Nations Business Bernard M. Baruch declares that a billion must be cut from annual Federal expenditure and puts the total Fed eral State and local bill this year at s15OO0 OO0 900, to be taken from probable national income of 45,000000,000. He adds: Obviously that leaves little or nothing to active business. It is an im~ possible situation"
 So he would chop s4o0ooOOo0 from the Veterans Bureau; s1750o00O0 from the War and Navy spend- ings; $136,000000 from Farm Board $3OOO0OO0 from Commerce Department; $100000000 from Depart ment of Agrculture $150,0oO,00O from the Post office Department; various revisions regrouping and subsidy extinctions $2o000000e; total excision s1 191 O00
 1 This ore-than-a- billion cut would mean slash-
 ing the Federal bill by good quarter. Incidentally the Democratic platform called for a 25 per cent cuD. Beyond which MT. Baruch says that with out such pruning of the governmental "psl- liatives" thus far devised to fight depression will succeed; if it is done these palliaves should soon prove unnecessary"

OLD TIME GANGsTERS RECALLED.

People sometimes write and talk as if they be- heved that organized murdering and other crime originated with the modern Gangsers' of Chicago and other places reminder that any such conclusion erroneous is disclosed in the Cincinnati Enqurers feature column under the heading of Fifty Years Ago" which is producing items of interest that ap- peared in that newspaper in 1882 In a recent issue this feature contained the following item as of an August day in that far off year

THE TRAGEDY OF ADVOCATING.

Word comes from Chicago that the C. V. (Sonny) Whitney lilly Top Flight that had won s273,l25 in purses up to September will probably be retired from the turf at the end of the present year. By that time it is believed she will have won more than s3oo0oO and this is her three-year- old Only Gallant Fox and zev had done as well at her age. Sun Beau, who heads the list of winners among American horses, until he was past six before he had garnered his s376,744. It is probable that Top Flight would surpass that record if she were kept on the track for another two or three years. However the reasons given by Sonny Whit ney for taking Top Flight off are all to his credit
 The reason for sending her into retirement is that she is considered too frail to carry in the oldsr stake division next season, when she would be at the mercy of the handicappers and heavily weighted down in all her engagements,
 And that suggests of the shocking tragedies of the turf. Handicappers are literally killing some of Americas finest horses before they reach their best. It is really too bad that the rules of the game do not prohibit handicapping until horse is five six years old
 No one can appreciate that better than Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, owner of Top Flight, whose Equipoise made the world racing record for mile this year. at the age of four but who is now being loaded like army pack mule before he is per- mitted to start If he allowed to go at his best with a suitable weight his back there is no telling how much he would cut ms own record of 1:34 flat for mile. He carried heavy load when he made that record and couple of weeks later he was defeated by Plucky Play, horse he had whipped soundly because he loaded with 134 pounds while Plucky Play carried only 107. Equipoise has horse ever before on a track. But like Top Flight, he is small and he cannot and live when loaded like pack mule Sonny Whitney has decided not to submit Top Flight to the hazards that Equipoise has encount- cred Rather he would sacrifice the vast amount of money she would probably win for him next year and the year after.
 Horses are not handicapped until after their three -year-old season. The theory was that they reach their full stature at that age But the theory is wrong Equipoise has proved a much better horse as ur-yesr-old than he was at three Sun Beau, Exterminator and other great horses made their best records in the handicaps after they were past three. But they were large horses and could carry the heavy weights
 Handicapping is the cause for the retirement of most Of the famous horses at three Think of what might have been Man O Wars record if he had gone for another two yearsi

CHAPTER '. A LIFE ENDANGERED

1 Cynthia was married on August 20 and on the 22nd she sailed with Frank Walsh for Australia. He was to be there for six months and then return to take up the junior partnership which Cynthia's ten thousand dollars had made possible.
 Nan went to the boat to see them off. She was dutifully kissed by Frank, and rather perfunctorily by Cinthia She walked back to a room strewn with all the odds and ends which had not been worth taking to Australia, with the feeling that she had come to dead end She was married, and Cynthia was married. She had lost her job Cynthia didn't want her any more. Jervis Weare cer- tainly didn't want her.
 She tidied tine room, and then sat down to face the future. She had been married six days, but it
 was the first time she had really had time to think. To get Gym thia married, to buy Cynthia's out fit, and to get her off by the same boat as Frank, had taken every bit Of her thought and time and energy. It was characteristic of Cynthia that she had not even asked what Nan was going to do. For the moment her consciousness was so saturated with Frank as to be unable to take in anything else. She had gone as complete ly if not as irrevocably, into an-' other world as if she had died. Some day she would come back. Some day she would probably want Nan agaln. But Nan was not able to derive great deal of comfort from this though. She had meth cred Cynthia ever since Cynthia was born and she, baby of three, had cuddled the new baby in her. small strong arms.

 She knew Rosamund's address well enough. since she had often taken i letters to her for MT. Page. She paid her bill at the tea room, and walked slowly along.

It was irrational to ex- pect to learn anything. l. was irrational to want to see Rosa mund.
 She walked through Sixty-fifth street. The door of No. 29 was shut and the blinds were drawn. When Nan had walked to the end of the block, she turned back. This made it necessary for her to pass No. 2e again. She stood still and looked 9. the house. Something came to her from it-she didn't know quite what it was, but she didn't ike it.
 As this thought went through Der mind she saw taxi coming up, the street towards her The taxi stopped in front of No 29. Without conscious plan, she whisk- ed round behind the taxi and was in time to see Rosamund Carew emerge and mount the steps which led to No. 29. Nan received an impression of height grace, and brilliance. Rosamund went up the steps and a man got out of the car and followed her.
 Man leaned sideways against the taxi. She tried to sep back, and the pavement lifted under her foct. The man was Robert Leonard. Af- ter ten years, she was just as sure of that as she was that when shS had seen him last, he had just struck down Jervis Weare and left lin to drown
 Nan stood behind the car, wait ing for her strength to return. In an instant, Robert Leonard ran down the steps. Nan saw him for a moment in profile, and then the car was between them. He wore a light felt hat and a grey sui.. He had small fair clipped nous tscile and straight line of light eyebrow. The eyelids beneath it had a crumpled look.
 Nan pressed close up against the car. She did not want Robert Leonard to see her. He must be a cousin of Miss Carew's-she re- membered that Rosamund was

 The precise causes of friction which led to Presi- dent Ortiz Rubio's resignation are not clear but obviously they not serious as to disturb ths continuity of policy especially since most of the Ortiz Rubio Cabinet has been reappointed by the new Chief Executive
 General Abelardo L. Rodriguez, the newly in- augurated President, is an unsual figure. At 4 he has distinguished military record dating from the revolution of 1913, has lived for time in Europe and in the last year has been successful business man. He is young, Presidents go in the United States, but is by no means the youngest man ever chosen for that office in Mexico.
 Undoubtedly General Putarco Elias Gales the so-called strong man" of Mexico, had a good deal to do with Ortiz Rubios resignation and perhaps was influential in the choice of Rodriguez But the spontaneous unanimity with which the party caucus selected the new leader suggests that Rodriquez really is a popular choice not hand-picked rubber stamp for dictator lurking in the background.
