BERLIN, Md, March "a.
States Attorney Godfrey Child,
of Worcester county, was saved
from mob violence by State po-
lice last night following dis
missal of charges against Rob-

City, and George K. Jarvis,
wealthy cattleman, who had
been accused by Charles W.
Brown of being members Of a
gang which kidnapped him last
week.

preliminary hearing became in

Tear Gas Used
They were dispersed after two
hours, during which there was
much scuffling, and the State
police had thrown tear gas bombs
into their midst.
Brown charged that he had
been kidnapped last week and held
four days by four men. He claims
that he recognized the police
chief when he tore the mask
from his face. He accused the
men of torturing him and tying
him to a tree with chains when
he refused to sign papers promis-

CLASSFORD,
BANKER
WARNED
IN NOTES
Money, Demanded, With Hint
Of KIDNAPPING; Police
Take Precautions

Threatening notes, addressed
to Mrs. Alice Longworth and
to Sir Willmott Lewis, are en-
crossing the attention Of the
Washington police today.
Other Washingtonians have
been threatened, including
Brig. Gen. Pelham D Glass
ford, superintendent of police.
The note to Sir Willmott,
which he received Monday,
threatened possible abduction
of his young son. That to
Mrs. Longworth demanded a
large sum of money, but con-
tanned no direct hint that
little Paulina might be kid
naped, it is said. Police be-
lieve that was the plan, how
ever, Of the writer Of the note.
Mrs. Longworth was notified
that if the money were not sent
as instructed, or if she notified
the authorities, she would have to
"suffer the consequences"
Wrote Both Notes
The same person is believed to
have written both notes. Sir
Willmott, who lives at 1905 New
Hampshire Ave. N. W., fearful
that his son might meet the fate
of the Lindbergh child, informed
the police promptly upon receipt
of the note. The in siFe, proorly
typed on cheap paer read:
'If you are interested in the
safety of your son, do what
you're instructed to do in the
next note.
"Say nothing Of having re-
ceived this note under penalty
of ???"
There was no signature. The
note was addressed to "Mr. and
Mrs. Willmott Lewis, 1905 New
Hampshire Ave. N. W." Sir Will
mott is Washington correspondent
of the London Times.
Notifies General GlassfOrd
He called the note to the at
tention of General Glassford, who
promptly sent Detective Sergt.
Floyd Truscott, of the Homicide
Squad, to the Lewis home. A po-
lice guard has been stationed
about the place.
The text of the note to Mrs.
Longworth was not made public,
but it was learned that if the
money were not sent as instructed
or if she notified the police, she
would have to suffer the con.
sequences"
A Washington banker, whose
name is withheld, is also said to
have received a threat nirg note.
presumably from the same per-
son. The banker was told to en-
close the money demanded in an
envelope, address it to "a. A.

IRISH LEADER
CONTINUES
DEFIANCE
De Valera Expected to Call
Election in Answer to
British Note

DUBLIN, March "a GN,S.).
The British government s reply
to Eamonn De Valera's pro-
posal to abolish the oath of
allegiance and withhold land
annuities from the British
treasury was received in Dub
lin this afternoon.
President De Valera, of the
irish Free State executive council,
Immediately. summoned a cabinet
meeting for tonight, at which the
ministry is expected to consider
the British note and possibly draft
q reply.
While De Valera refrained from
commenting, international News
Service ascertained that the Irish
reply probably would constitute a
reStatement Of the Free State
governments views, despite the
fact that Britain has served for
NAL notice it will not consent to
De Valera's proposals.
Seeks Clear Majority
Well-informed Irish circles are
discussing reports that De Valera
is seriously considering exercising
his prerogative and asking the
governor general to dissolve the
Dali and call a special election for
April in the hope of obtaining
clear majority for his Fianna Fail
party.
This would give him a clear
mandate from the people author
izing him to repudiate the Anglo
Irish treaty and cast the die for
complete Irish independence.
Abolition of the oath necessi-
tateS legislation for which the
sanction of thu senate must be
obtained. Passage of bill
abolishing the oath was expected
to be easy in the dali, where the
nine laborites holding the balance
Of power were known to be be-
hind De Valera and his Fianna
Fail party.
Approval of the Senate, how
ever, was considered doubtful,
since the Fianna Fail occupy
only % of the so seats. A strong
majority were believed ready to
vote down such a proposal.

LOESCH LETTER
HITS CAPONE

AL Capone, now under an IL
year jail sentence for income tax
fraud, has twice offered to "po-
lice" Chicago, terminating all
gang killings and terrorism, if
"let alone on beer, booze and
gambling" Frank j. IneSch,
president of the Chicago crime
commission declared in a letter
received today by Senator Borah.
LoeSch attempted to justify his
charge that the opposition to
Federal Judge James H. Wilker-
son was inspired by gangsters. He
recited at length how gangsters
and gunner had taken over con-
troll of various racket unions" in
Chicago, extorting millions of dol
lars from defenseleSs business
men.
The Chicagoan cleft all infer
ences and conclusion" to Borah,
but it was plain he meant to in
fer that some of the labor op-
position to WilkerSon had been
inspired by Capone adherentS.

Mead to Oppose
Letter Postage Raise

The proposed increase from
two to three cents in price Of
postage stamps as a means Of
raising money to wipe out the
deficit will be fought by Repre-
sentative Mead CD Of New
York, chairman of the House
Postoffice Committee, he said
today.
This increase has been urged
by Postmaster General Brown
and suggested as one Of the
alternatives to the manufacturers
excise.
Mead declared an increase in
first class postage rates would
drive merchants back to one-cent
open-letter postage, and thus de-
feat the idea.
