SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. l GIN.
S. Following the lynching by a
San Jose mob of Thomas Thur
mond and Jack Holmes for the
kidnaning and murder of Brooke
Hart %, former President Her.
bert Hoover and Gov. James
Ro4or ir., today were engaged
in a bitter controversy.
Governor Rolph publicly ap-
proved the lynchingS as a good
job" and started dispute that

TIE exchange followed a state
mem of rs prominent citizens,
incluling Hoover, who reouked
the governors stand.
Governor Rolph struck back
with a criticism of the eviction
of bonus marchers at Washing
ton. D. c., during President Hoo
ver's term of office.
Ignorance Charged
Hoover broke the ThankSgiv-
ing calm at Palo Alto by issuing
his fist public statement since
he was retired from the preSi-
dercv He charged Governor
Rolpt with gross ignorance of
the facts" and defending his
actor in the bonus army evic-
ton.
An editorial to be published
today by the Monitor, official
newspaper of the Roman Catho-
lie archdiocese of San Francisco,
says:
"The lynching in San Jose
was murder.
participants in the orgy of
mass violence were accessories
to the crime.
"OnIy God can cleanse the
soul from the blot of murder;
certainly not Governor ROlph,
who has unlawfully called down
this hideOus stain upon the
sovereignty of California.
Hoover, in his reply to Gov
ernor Rolph, said:
"The trouble with Governor
ROlph's statement is his gross
ignorance of the facts. Not a
single shot was fired, not a
single person was injured by
the troops called out in Wash
ingtOn in response to the ap-
peal of local authorities. The
troops ended the blOOdShed,
which was then in progress

MEXICO CITY, Dec. l G.N.S).
Complete inva:idation of MeXicos
"quick divorce" laws in the imme-
hiate future was predicted today
with repercussions certain to be
heard in some of Americas best
known families those of the
Hollywood screen stars.
In test case the Supreme
Court ruled one of the quick d.
Vorces" illegal on the ground that
the court granting the decree had
not heard both parties Under
Mexican law five such decisions
would invalidate the law, and IN
terested parties are expected soon
TO bring four more cases before
the Supreme Court.
Thus the status of scores of
DEGREES granted in several Mexi-
can States during the past 10
years would Immediately be i'm.
perilled. Several of these de,
crees have gone, many of -hem
via the mail order" route, to
film stars and prominent New
Workers.
Legal opinion here was inclined
to believe that anyone divorced

decrees-without being duly mott

Hollywood Celebrities
Fail to Worry

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. / G.N.s0.
Hollywood celebrities who have
been divorced in Mexico were not
worried today over the Mexican
supreme courts ruling that held
illegal the quick divorces" of the
States of Chihuahua, MoreloS. Yu-
catan and Campeche.
Attorneys who have announced
Mexican divorces for their film
celebrity clients pointed out the
Mexican supreme court held di,
Vorce laws of the four States void
because the absent party at the
divorce action was not given a
hearing.
The attorneys declared that all
of Hollywood's quick divorces"
below the border either were by
mutual consent or with both par.
ties of the action legally notified.

PROPHET WANTED

WHAT this country really needs, perhaps,
W is a system of augurs like those of an
cient Rome
If some authoritative functionary only
could 60 out on the steps of the capitol build
ing at Washington every so often, peer at the
internal economy Of some luckless pigeon and
then tell us which of our ambitious plans were
going to work and which were not, life would
flow along a lot more smoothly.
It seems to be our fate in these days to
do lot things that have never been done be-
fore and to do them without any definite
knowledge whether or not they are going to
help us. We know only that to do nothing
is to walk straight into complete disaster.
Otherwise the sky is blank and no sign is
vouchsafed us.
a good example of our perplexities is to be
found in the talk about initiation and the COM
modify dollar
1t is pretty fair bet that before very long
we are going to do things to our dollar that
have never been done before. No one knows
what the outcome will be- The army is going
to strike out in the dark, over unknown ter
rain against a foe of uncalculated strength.
1t is going to do it simply because the pres
sure on the rear is too great to be resisted any
longer.
And there is this to remember about this
move
An attempt is to be made to gain an end
we all desire-the cessation of wild price 1uc-
tuations, the attainment of a dollar that is
worth when you pay it back exactly what it
was worth when you borrowed it, the creation
of a monetary system under which trade and
industry can operate with some degree of regu-
larity.
Maybe the attempt will work and maybe it
won't; but back of it there stands the plain
fact that the system we have been using has
not worked worth lead nickel. We may be
jumping into the fire, but at least we are
jumping out OF an unenduably hot frying pan.
NIeanwhie-Wel, it would be handy if we
only had an augur who could really read the
auspices and tell us what's going to happen
to us.
