Governor Is Silent

BIZ United Press
LOS ANGELES. Dec. IA polite
tolerance to President Roosevelt's S
views on lynchings was assumed to-
day by Governor James Rolph Jr.,
who two weeks ago precipitated a
storm of criticism and praise when
he condoned the lynchings of two
confessed kidnap-slayers at San
Jose.
The California Governor refused
to be drawn into a controversy with
the President, who last night con-
demned Iynchings before church
group at washington.
L have no desire to start a con-
troversy with our President. for I
hold him in too high esteem and
respect Rolph told the United
Press. Undoubtedly we can not all
think the same, but I know that
anything President Roosevelt has
said comes from his heart after the
deepest consideration"

Futile Trip.

DIGGAR, Sask.. Dec. IA IA
ID ther and mother were held
here today suffering from severe
knife wounds and charged with
killing their 9-year-old son be-
cause they were destitute and
ashamed to return home and ask
for relief.
The husband and wife, Edward
and Rose Bates. slashed them
selves with a knife in an effort
to end their own lives after the
boy, Jack, 9, had died.
Passersby found the couple al
most unconscious in their auto
mobile on lonely road near here.
Beside them in the front seat was
the body of the son, dead of knife
wounds.
Police said the parents told a
desperate story of wandering over
western Canada in search Of work
and a final decision to end their
lives rather than return to their
home at Glidden, Sask., and again
go on the public relief rolls,
The couple and the boy had
gone west by automobile, hoping
to find work at Saskatoon or
Vancouver. Prospects at both
cities failed to develop and they
were refused relief because they
were not residents Of the cities.
Mrs. Bates was held in the hos
pital and her husband at the
Royal Canadian mounted police
Jail.

METHODISTS SENDING
DECALOG OVER U. S.
Conference Edict to Go to
All Congregations.

A new ten commandments, :"
adopted at the Indiana state con-
ference of Methodist Episcopal
church leaders here yesterday, will
be sent to all Methodist Episcopal
congregations in the country within
the next few days.
The decalogue advocates a curb
on capitalism and embraces many
ideas embodied in the new deal"
Among the points set out are that
welfare of human beings must be
the sole justification of any special
order. the welfare clause of the
Constitution must guide our social
actions, capital must take less and
workers get more of the total in
come of industry, and concentration
of wealth must be curbed.

Muss0Iini Leads MOUe to Give World NeO Political
DeaL and to Accomplish ReOrqan izatiOn of League

Such a blow at the Versailles and
other war treaties would be com
bined with prospective German
World war allies negotiations to
bring Germany back into European
councils and make possible a dis
armament treaty. German repara-
itons already have been abandoned
and the success Of efforts for the
new deal might mean the Versailles
treaty's effective demise so far as
penalties go.
If the United States and Japan
co-operated in such a plan the
world would be included.
But if, as seemed more likely, the
plan would necessarily be confined
to Europe, all the great powers
might be brought in. Through
France the little entente and Po-
land would be included.

eral years. They just want to
show their appreciation for work
ing again." she explained.
Nov they don't want any pub
licity. They're doing it because
they realize that there's need still
in the city, and lots of it. Some of
them have children, back bills to
pay, but they want to help the
ranks they left but few weeks
ago-the unemployed" she added.

junction. The other parishes, which
have a normal vote of approximate

mately five thousand-all for Mrs.
Kemp as she was the only candidate

marked by disorders with citizens
committees seeking to keep voters
from the polls.
Governor Allen attacked the
citizens committees and local
authorities for "high- handed tao
tics" He accused the judge who is
sued the iniunctions of committing
"outlawry' in swearing in citizens
as deputy sheriffs to enforce them.
He declared that new election
