No Profits for
"a Season

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Oct. IL.
None of the teams in the Ameri-

ridge, president of the Junior Cir

all along the line if the clubs keep
out of debt.
Harridge condemned Umpire
Charley Moran for ousting Heinie

STUDY MEANS
OF HANDLING
r. F. G.. LOAN

Methods of obtaining the best
results in use of $1,000 to be de-
livered to Imperial county in the
immediate future as the first in
stallment of an R. F. C. loan were
discussed yesterday afternoon at
an informal meeting of the board
of supervisors and Margaret S.
Watkins and Mrs. Kathleen Nc
Laren, representatives of the state
department of social welfare.
Miss Watkins and Mrs. McLaren
have been engaged in survey of
the condition of unemployed and
needy families in Imperial Valley.
With the information gathered in
this survey, the women yesterday
afternoon discussed with the sup
ervisors the best methods of put
ting the unemployed to work on
useful projects financed by the fed
eral loan.
1t is the opinion both of the
supervisors and the welfare work
ers that the money should be
spent in constructive work. County
road districts and work on county
roads probably will furnish on of the
greatest sources of employment
in this connection, thus aiding the
needy and improving the county.

|GUY DEFENSE
OPENS CASE
Makes Vigorous Attempt To
Impeach Testimony Given By
Mrs. Wanderwell.

LONG BEACH, Cal, Feb. 10.
tU.Pj-An attempt to impeach the
testimony of Aloha Wanderwell,
cool young widow of the slain
Capt. Walter Wanderwell, was be-
gun today as the defense opened
its case in behalf of William James
Guy, youthful soldier-of f-fortune,
accused of Wanderwells murder.
On direct examination, the
blonde widow denied she knew
Wanderwell kept gun aboard the
former rum-runner Carma, on
which the adventurer planned a
world-cruise. She also denied that
Wanderwell had lost gun, or that
he ever had looked for one.
It was the defenses contention
that Wanderwell was shot by his
own gun, and by person other
than Guy. The murder weapon
never has been found.
To refute Mrs. Wanderweil's tes-
timony. Edmund zeranski, camera
man aboard the Carma, related
that he saw Wanderwell ransack-
ing a trunk in his cabin one day.
He was told just three days ago
by Mrs. Wanderwell that the cap
tain was looking for a gun at that
time, he said.
Another witness called to refute
state testimony regarding the iden-
tification of Guy as the stranger
who appeared aboard the craft a
few minutes before the Staying was
Alfred Buckley, caretaker of the
P. & o. docks, to which the Car
ma was moored.
Buckley declared that the dock
was dim and hazy the night of
the Staying, and that it would be
practically impossible to recognize
person except face-to-face.
This, the defense claimed tended to
discredit testimony of crew members
that they recognized Guy, as a
man who peered through the mess
room portfolio the night of the
Staying.
Three newspaper reporters also
testified for the defense. They said
! that Cuthbert Wills, chief state
Identification witness, had told
! them the day after Guys arrest
! that he was unable to identify the
young Welshman as the man he
led to Wanderwell's cabin a few
minutes before the Staying.

Forbes Blan1es
Strike On Ford

NEW YORK, Feb. 10. U.P)-B. G..
Forbes, economist and writer, to-
day charged Henry Ford with re-
sponsibility for the recent strike at
various body plants in Detroit.
"The Ford Motor company" he
wrote in an editorial in the current
issue of Forbes magazine, sis about
the worst offender in the whole
country in compelling suppliers OF
materials to cut prices drastically.
His extremely hard bargaining
compels those doing business with
him to squeeze workers. The COM
pany furnishing bodies for his new
model. in a desperate effort to
avoid losses, forced employees to
bear part of the brunt. Workers
found their earnings utterly made
quate. Therefore, they rebelled."
