 The prosecution attempted to es- tablish the fact that Mrs. u d d carried out her attempted diSpo- sal of the bodies even after Sh e new something was wrong with the trunks because keepers at a lug gage station became suspicious.
 Mrs. Judd sat calmly by her hus- band in the courtroom and even found some of the trunk murder trial" discussion humorous.

TARIFF ISSUE $
 MAJOR PROBLEM
 OF GREAT BRITAIN
CABINET BREAKUP APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN CERTAIN
 BUT WAS PREVENTED

LONDON, Jan. g. (A)-Facing a major crisis on the tariff issue which confronted the British Ma tionilsts, the government is forcing Premier Macdonald to use all his statesmanship and diplomacy to hold the cabinet together.
 The issue is basis of Britain'S fiscal policy situation which caused a difficulty in getting the approval .of the cabinet for a proposed gen. eral tariff policy which would be presented to Parliament.
 The proposal is understood to be 9 general levy of 10 per cent on imports. The strained relations, however, are believed not have grown out of the general principle of the tariff, but out of 3 stand taken by the Conservative party that the Ministers 10 per cent tar if wouldn't satisfy the majority of Conservative members in the House of Commons.
