GRAND JUR|ES

LONDON G.N.S). - Britafn's
last grand jury has been dis
charged.
Guardians of the public against
judicial tyranny for many scores
of years and parent Of the exist
ing system in the United States
grand juries in Britain have be
come "Superflous," and theil
abolition has been ordered.
John DrinkWater, famous play
wright, was one of the 20 mem
berS of the last jury.
Sir Percival Clarke said:
"Over many years Parliament
has raised SO many projections
against improper convictions,
that the necessity for the serv-
ices Of grand juries has gradu-
ally diminished.
So plentiful are the barriers
raised in defense of an accused
person that it is surprising that
prisoners are convicted at ALL"

liminary hearings and return in

procedure.

In addition, Edward ("Barney~
Berman and Clifford Skelly, both
Of st. Paul, have been sentenced
to five years in the penitentiary
for their part in passing some Of
the ransom money. Kathryn's par
ents were sentenced to life i'm
prisonment.
The spectators, most Of them
women, craned their necks as
they watched the proceedings.
UrSchelS in Court
In the courtroom was Urschel,
the kidnap victim, and Mrs.
UrSchel. Seated a short distance
from the defendants was E. E.
Kirkpatrick, the contact" man
who turned a suit case containing
5000 900 over to Kelly on street
corner in Kansas City a week
after Urschel was abducted from
his home by Kelly and Bates at
the point of a machine gun last
July %.
When Kelly and his 29-year-
old wife sat down after receiving
their sentences, Defense Attorney
MatherS rose and made motions
for an arrest of Judgment and
for a new trial for both.
Said Judge Vaught:
Motions Overruled."
Judge Vaught said he would
grant the request Of Kathryn
that she be allowed a conference
with her mother, now in the
county Jail here.
Taken From Courtroom
After various technical details
had been disposed Of, Judge
Vaught said:
"The prisoners will now be
taken in custody by the United
States marshaIS."
Armed secret service men who
had been sitting directly back of
Kelly and Kathryn surrounded
the pair. The prisoners stood up.
Kelly turned to his wife, forcing a
smile. He whispered a few words
to her. Her face was impassive.
They strobe out Of the courtroom,
preceded and followed by Federal
agents. Shackles were placed on
Kelly's hands and leg chains on
his ankles.
They were taken down nine
floors to the entrance of the Fed
eral building. There, a large
crowd had collected.
Kathryn, holding her head high,
marched down the steps of the
Federal building, followed by Kelly
and a dozen secret service men,
and got in the patrol wagon. Four
armed deputy marshalS followed
them.
Amid Shrieking of sirens the
patrol wagon was driven off, pre-
ceded and followed by half a dozen
automobiles containing arme d
| guards.

NRA To HASTEN
SETTLEMENT
Of STRIKES
National Labor Board Prom
ises Action; Retail Code
Put First by Johnson
BY International News Service


Out at last in the deep and
frequently turbulent water of the
economic high seas, the NRA'S
official staff today began plotting
a careful course.
Strenuous efforts to tone down
strike agitators and leaders, espe-
cially in the captive" mine area
about Pittsburgh, were continued.
Steel company operators of the
mines were to resume negotia-
tions for wage agreements with
the United Mine Workers, repre-
sented by Philip Murphy, vice
president.
Labor Board to Act
Steel striker delegates from the
plants in West Virginia and
lower Ohio returned to their
homes with the assured attention
of the National Labor Board.
Meanwhile the "super-econo-
mists" of the NRA and the more
practical officials sat down to
talk over their differences about
"stop loss" provisions in the mas
ter retail code, the proposed Fed
eral guaranteed building boom,
and the vast reorganization re-
quired for strict enforcement Of
permanent codes.
In addition, they sought to solve
the vexing immediate problem of
defining the rights of minority
labor groups in rartly unionized
plants and shops.
Fear Buyers Strikes
Recovery Administrator Hugh s.
Johnson strove first to clear the
way for quick approval Of the
master retail code. Finding the
"Super-economists" of his organiza-
ton lined up solidly against the
stop loss" method of preventing
cut-throat price competition in the
retail field, he has swerved from
his first firm approval of the
price.fixing provisions.
The economists, with their math-
ematical equations and charts,
have finally convinced him their
opposition is backed by more than
"esoteric arguments"
They charge, and "prove" with
figures and symbols, that the
stop loss" features Of the code
will lead to buyers strikes and
force the Government into in
definite initiation" to save mer-
chants and producers from bank
ruptcY.

Of DAVIS
IN HANDS Of
JURY TODAY
Government Summarizes Case
Against Senator and An.
other Moose Officer

NEW YORK, Oct. IL GNs0.
Assistant U. S. Attorney Louis M.
Treadwell today delivered the
prosecutions closing argument in
the trial of Senator James j.
Davis, of Pennsylvania, and Theo-
dore G. Miller, charged with vio-
lating the Federal lottery laws in
1881 in connection with charity
balls sponsored by the Loyal
Order of Moose.
Davis is director general of the
order and Miller the head Of it's
propaganda department.
In contrast to the emotional ap-
peals made yesterday by defense
counsel, Treadwell spoke in a
matter Of fact tone, reviewing the
testimony in conversational
manner. Because of the holiday,
only handful of spectators were
present.
Son Hears Argument
James j. Davis, jr., the Sena-
tors 1S-year-old son, sat with his
father.
The case was to go to the jury
late today.
After the prosecutions sum.
nation, Judge Johnson Hayes was
to deliver his charge to the jury
and the panel was to retire to de-
Senator Davis and Miller began
September 18.
Defense summation of the case,
in which Davis was pictured as
q great humanitarian" and an
inspiring leader who has achieved
one Of the greatest careers in
the history of the United States" I"
was completed last evening by
Charles H. Tuttle, former Federal
district attorney, and Charles j.
Margiotti, renowned Pennsylvania
lawyer.
In an impaSSioned plea which
brought tears to the eyes of Mrs.
Davis, Margiotti asked the jury
to bring in an acquittal, declaring
a verdict of guilty would blast
career that is model for every
young man in America"
Describes Rise to Senate
In a less emotional address
Tuttle described Davis rise to
the Senate and his former post
of Secretary of Labor under three
Administrations from the Penn
sylvania steel mills, and declared
the Governments case was
vague, indirect, and based
entirely on inference or suspicion" 4"
The prosecution based much of
its contention on the claim that
Davis was aware Of the nature
of the balls and prize awards,
that he profited from them, and
as an officer of the organization
was at least indirectly responsible
for their being held.

here today sounded the death
knell of the Khaki Shirts Of

der-in-chief, Capt. Art j. Smith,

Smith, whose boasts that he

1900, 600 and finally a mere 500,-
900, did a graceful fadeout
through a window as his plumed
followers questioned him inces-
sanity last night about a fleet
of trucks he promised to provide
for the Washington march.
Disgruntled members of the
organization, u Of whom were
in Jail today for the armory
plot, charged that along with
smith in his high-priced car
went the organizations war
chest" Of about $4,000. collected
by Smith in what Department

they would need to battle Com
