MURDERESS TO GO TO ASYLUM,
 JURY DECIDES
Verdict Is Req h e d by Florence Jury in Less
 than Two Hours
CROWD CHEERS AS
 FINDING IS READ
Death Sentence Remains Provided Woman Ever
 Regains Her Sanity

FLORENCE, Arizona, April 24.-Winnie Ruth Judd, the trunk murderess," was last Saturday night adjudged in- sane by a sanity jury.
 Mrs. Judd was sentenced to be hanged next Friday, April 28, for the staying of Agnes Anne LeRoi, a former nurse of Juneau, Alaska. She also admitted she killed Miss Hedvig Samuelson, also of Juneau, former school teacher. She was never tried on that charge.
 The verdict was reached in one hour and fifty-seven min- utes of actual deliberation. The verdict was returned with a vote of nine to three, the minimum number of jur- ors allowed under the law, having signed it.
 The spectators in the crowded court room broke into cheers when the clerk in Judge E. L. Greens court read the jury's finding.
 Mrs. Judd was not present but was brought into the room while the cheering was still in progress. She sat in chair and did not indicate any understanding of what had happened even when her hus- band, Dr. William c. Judd, ex- plained that she was to go to the State Hospital for the Insane instead of the gallows.
 Sentence Remains
 The death sentence remains to hang over her, however, in case she is ever declared to have re- gained her sanity.
 County Attorney Will c. Truman said the verdict was entirely sat- isfactory to the State.
 Mrs. Judd pleaded self-defense for the staying of the two women, saying they attacked her She was held to be sane during the trial for the murder of Mrs. LeRoi.
 ANOTHER THREAT
 FLORENCE, Arizona. April 24.- Winnie Ruth Judd again threat- ened to kill herself today when her mother visited her and dis cussed family affairs. Details of the quarrel have not been made public.
 Mrs. Judd will be transferred to

RIGHT TO POSSESS s2.aea GaLD.
(Alaska Weekly, Seattle)

Alaska Weekly. Seattle)
 Senator William Borah last week told the Senate that if he had 5000 in gold and the, Government demand ed it's return he would tell the Gov ernment to "Go to hell" Like Sem ator Borah, we are inclined to agree that there is no constitutional justi- fication for this federal interference with mans right to possess gold any more than there would be for the Government to say that citizen might not own silver, diamonds or any other purely personal property. Many editorial writers express the viewpoint that the man who keeps gold in his safe deposit box is a pub lie enemy, stacker who is withhold-, ing money from circulation upon which he pays no taxes and which is not working for the public veal in any sense. Therefore. they say, it is perfectly fitting that he be forced to return it in order that it may lie in vaults of the Federal Reserve rather than in. his own. We fail to see why the gold hoarder is any more culpable or less public spirited than the man who. makes extensive investments abroad or the man who carefully chooses tax-exempt securities as his method of tax evasion. This !, latter group are all among the wealthy. They get out from under the tax load and the man @ moderate. means does the paying until it hurts.

HIGHWAY TOLLS 20 BE
 IMPOSED. SAYS IGKEs

Tolls will be imposed on Richardson Highway, despite protests of Alas kans, individually and collectively through their various civic and .com- mercial organizations, according to a letter received by the Fairbanks city council from Harold L. Ickes, Secre- tary of, the Interior, says the Fair banks News-Miner of recent. date. The council had sent the Secetary resolutions it. had adopted against imposition of tolls.
 Secretary Ickes' letter of. reply is as follows:
 Gentlemen: Your telegram of June 15 has been received. l have given very careful consideration to the matter of license fees on the Richardson Highway, but no sufficient reason has been presented to me for changing the order of my predecessor, dated February 15, 1883. It was ap- parent to me from my investigation of the subject that nominal fee was warranted on all private passenger cars, and that the egular license ap- piled to trucks carrying merchandise for hire should be extended to private trucks which haul merchandise for their owners
 4The delcit of the Alaska Railroad has been met for many years by the. taxpayers of the United States, and there is, no apparent reason why the Government should maintain a com peting highway which further reduces the railroad revenues. While I ealize the fees to be charged will not cover the cost of maintaining the highway, nevertheless the subsidy will be re- duced by the collections to some ex- tent, andl will show .an, effort on the part of the people of Alaska to share in the expense now carried completely by the taxpaxers in the States"

construction companies and auto manu-
facturers, 1t Is also expected that the

Two of the most encouraging bits Of
news to mining and shipping men have
come with reports Of the United States

additional large lake freighters by the
Pittsburgh Steamship Co. to haul the
product down the lakes.

Ore Consumption Tripled.
Reports have been received here that
consumption Of ore by blast furnaces

The 40 additional ships to be recondi-
toned for service this Summer, giving

number of ore-carrying boats for the
Pittsburgh Co. to eight times the num-
ber operated last year.
Other steamship companies also have
reported a material increase in the
number Of boats in operation this year,
with the majority of them carrying ore.

The public works bill provides two

 FORFEITED HIS
 BLUE EAGLE

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 12, - Theodore G. Rahutis, Gary, India na restaurant proprietor, was or dered by MIRA Administrator John- son to surrender his Blue Eagle.
 This was the first action of its kind taken by MIRA. The complaint is that Rahutis violated both max imum hours and minimum wages contained in the provisions of his agreement.
 Rahutis declared that his res taurant not only has been con- forming with regulations set up by the Indiana Restaurant AsSo- citation but has been opera ting oii a basis even more favorable to employees when wages and meals were provided during hours off.
