MRS. BAER HAS
WORD To SAY

SACRAMENTO, June II
GN.SO.-There were no June
Knights on the honeymoon ranch
of Max Baer in pastoral Sacra-
mento county.
So insisted Mrs. Dorothy Dun
bar Baer, former stage and screen
actress, whose divorce suit is now
pending against Baer, who re-
Gently vanquished Max Schmeling
in his campaign for the heavy
weight boxing championship.
Mrs. Baer, the former Dorothy
Dunbar, has established her resi-
dence in Sacramento, where her
divorce suit, charging cruelty, is
now pending.
Discussing reported statements
of June Knight, screen actress
who is admittedly engaged to
Baer, that she first met the Cali
fornia boxer on the Sacramento
ranch of Ancil Hoffman, one of
his managers, Mrs. Baer pointed
out that her honeymoon with the
Livermore fighter was spent on
the same romantic spot. Mrs.
Baer said:
81 have never met June
Knight, and, So far as 1 know,
she has never been out on our
honeymoon rach."

JOHNSON PLANE.
DOWN IN FOG

PITTSBURGH, June II G.N.S)
Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, who yes
terday was named administrator
of the national industrial re,
covery act, today rested in a
Pittsburgh hotel, undeci d d
whether to continue to Chicago
or return to Washington follow
ing a thrilling battle with fog
over the Conemaugh Valley.
The generals Army plane was
forced down here yesterday while
he was en- route to make an
address to the National Goa
Association in Chicago.
General Johnson, in a radioed
address, said:
'What we have here for the
first time is some chance to
keep production and purchasing
power in this country more
nearly in step with each other.
They are far out of step today.
I think we are at a critical
stage of this depression. Prices
have arisen so much faster than
wages that unless we can get
purchasing power promptly in
the hands of industry, there is
a real danger Of relapse"
johnson said that President
Roosevelt had pointed the way
toward preventing a business re-
lapse by recommending hiring o1
more men for existing work, re-
ducing the working hours of each
mans week and at the same time
paying a living wage for shorter
week.

Why Is a Public Utility?
Elsie Robinson Asks

Out here, in California, water IS
mighty scarce and very valuable.
There are little ranches all along
the course of that brook which
need that water badly. If they
could use it, they could raise
enough crops to lift the mort
gage, run a few head of cattle.
The little town, eight miles
away, needs that water, too. It's
a hot country. There could be a
good big swimming pool in the
town if it could use that water.
There could be fresh, green gar
dens in front of every house.
Cleaner streets-more bathrooms
cooler, healthier people.
Brook Full of Water
The brook is full of water.
That water didn't cost any one
a cent. NOBODY BUT GOD
PUT 1T THERE. It came down
from the sky and out of the
mountains. And it started COM
ing before there were any men
here or in the rest Of America.
AS FAR AS GOD IS CON-
CERNED, THAT WATER IS AS
FREE AND ACCESSIBLE TO
ALL HIS CHILDREN'S NEED AS
IS THE AIR.
But has God anything to do
with it?
Nothing whatever. God doesn't
even hold the tltle to that brook
any more. And if any of his chill
dren harbor the old-fashioned il
lusion that they can wade in and
partake of the wetness thereof,
just let them try to do it.
FOR THE PACIFIC GAS AND
ELECTRIC CORP GRAFTON
OWNS THE WATER RIGHTS
ON THAT BROOK.
The P. G. & E. is a public
utility corporation. AS far as I
know, it's an honest, efficient
corporation. If we're going to
have public utilities corporations
at all, the P. G. & E. probably
has as much right to function
as any of them. But how does
it function? And what does
that functioning cost the little
ranchers along the brook and
the little town at the end of it?
Here's how and what.
How It Got Start
Some years ago, when the P.
G.. and E. first came into this
country, a big public meeting was
called. All the little ranchers
and the little cattlemen went.
They didn't know what it was all
about. And when they came
away, they weren't any wiser
than when they started. But
they had been told that hereafter

SOVIET IN. ROW
WITH GERMAN

LONDON, June IT UN.SO.
Behind the scenes of the World
Economic Conference, a violet dis
pute broke out between Germany
and Soviet Russia today over Ger
many's demand that the world
recognize her right to colonial ex.
pansion.
Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet COM
missar for foreign affairs, took
sharp issue with the German de-
mand, interpreting it rightly or
wrongly as an obvious inference"
Russia ought to be split up and
parceled out to Germany as its
colonies.
The German demand was voiced
by DR.. Alfred Hugenberg, minister
of agriculture and economics in
the Hitler cabinet, in the course Of
a speech before the economic
commission of the conference.

If David Lamson murdered his

second day of his preliminary
hearing.
Damaging Utterance
A tortured cry said to have
been uttered within an hour after
the body of his wife was found,
was repeated and brought a pack
ed courtroom upright with shocks.
"My GOd-why did I ever
marry her"
Deputy Sheriff John M. Moore
testified LamSon said this.
IT was but one of a number
of charges hurled in rapid, hostile
fluency. It brought the case to a
sensational climax with the new
evidence disclosed.
Moore said, drawing the picture
with gaunt, powerful strokes, so
that it scared the heart:

easterly side shortly after o'clock on the afternoon of December. 19, 1892. As they came to the north eriy corner of Center Street an automobile owned by Miss Nonnie Gibbons of Torrington. Connecti- cut and operated by Albert c. Her ron, was proceeding northerly on Leavenworth street from Grand street and as 1t approached the in- tersection of Center street turned into the latter street. Although parking is restricted to one side of Center street there were cars parked on both sides of that street as Heron turned into it. The Mo- Graths waited until Heron had gotten safely into Center street and had started towards Bank street and then they started to cross to- wards the southerly corner of Gen. ter and Leavenworth streets.
 Just as soon as Heron got strengthened around into Center street he discovered that another machine was approaching him from the east and that there was no possibility of the two cars pass ing in Center street and that it would be necessary for one or the other to back up so as to be able to pass. As the distance the other machine would have to back up was greater than that which he would Have to back up, he sig nailed over to the driver to stop and then, looking around and dis covering no one mediately in his rear, he proceeded to back out into Leavepworth street again. As MT and Mrs McGrath were directly behind his automobile at the time he turned around, he was unable to see them, and as he backed up he struck Mrs McGrath, who was the nearer of the two, and threw her to the pavement, MT McGrath falling with her. As he did this someone screamed and he imme- diately stopped his car, got out and went to the rear and discovered MT McGrath rising and assisting Mrs McGrath to her feet. He at once suggested that he take them to doctor and he helped them into his automobile with the as- sistance of a police officer who ar- rived almost immediately there after, and took them to pr J. Henry McGrath's office as they suggested. There was some delay before Dr McGrath could be reached and when he did come he ordered Mrs McGrath taken at once to St Mary's hospital. She was admitted that evening and her condition, which was more serious than at first realized, did not inn prove and she finally developed pneumonia, from which she died on February 21, 1893, as direct result of the injury sustained on December 18th.
 I find that said death was caused by confusion of abdomen with sub peritoneal hemorrhage, acute pyel- itis, chronic bronchitis, acute pleu- risy, bronchial pneumonia, pyelitic fieus and myocardial failure, di- rectly received or resulting from the injuries received when de- ceased was struck by the automo- bile operated by Albert c.
