The case of James Roberts. col

Hazel Louise Roberts. at Taver-
nier, Fla. January 10, is set for
trial Monday, May %. but no or
der has been issued out of circuit
court to summon a jury.
When this case. which resulted
in Judge Jefferson B. Browne set
ting aside the verdict of murder
in the first degree. and ordering a
new trial, was first called, a yenire
of 90 jurors was summoned to
serve.
The fact that no order has been
issued to summon jurors leads
those familiar with the general
procedure to the belief that the
defendant has agreed to allow his
attorneys to enter plea for q
lesser offense, probably man
slaughter, IL the state will agree
to accept the plea.
Whether or not this IS the situa-
ton will be determined Monday

NAVAL FORCES
ARE OCCUPYING
NEW QUARTERS
COMMUNICATION SERVICE IS
NOW HOUSED IN OLD FED
ERAL BUILDING NEXT TO
FORMER HEADQUARTERS

The u. S. naval communication
service unit that has been oc-
cupying the left wing of the Num-
Der / building, has been removed
to the old federal building. The
last of the radio apparatus was
installed this morning.
This transfer of activities
would have taken place some
months ago but for the fact that
the old instrument tables were
badly eaten away by termites and
new tables were necessary.
These have been finished. They
are made of mahogany, high
finished and far superior to the
ones that had been in service
since the communication unit was
first installed.
Activities Of this branch of the
naval service are in the offices on
the second floor of the building
formerly used by the u. S. Judge,
district attorney and U. S. mar
shall. All Of the openings are
protected by copper wired screens
and doors.
The frames of doors and win
dows have been recently spaired
and painted. The surroundings
are much pleasanter and present
able than those formerly oc-
cupied.

REPORT JAPS

SIGNED TRUCE
CESSATION OF CHINESE PRO-
VACATIONS UDE D
AMONG PROVISIONS RELA-
TIVE TO AGREEMENT

Dispatches from both Shanghai
and Tokyo agreed today that a
truce had been signed TO put an
end to hostilities in North China
between the Chinese and japanese.
In Shanghai there were official
denials and strict censorship but
none the less there was no doubt
that the agreement had been con-
cluded. The Tokyo announcement
was made by the foreign office.
Terms of the truce, Japanese
say, are that the Chinese forces
are to be kept southwest of the
line running across North China
territory within 15 miles of Peip-
ing while the japanese soldiers re-
main northeast of the boundary.
Cessation of Chinese provo
cations also figures in the deal.

sharply conflicting statements on the

competition with unemployed musicians,
about 100 letters from various sections
Of the country asked Mr. Swanson to
restore the bands to the air. The naval
authorities said complaints are still
coming in.
Mr.. Weber wrote: I'VE are confident

On the other hand, from the steam

From Newburgh, N Y, came this one:
This Is to protest loudly against the
