List Taking Part in Draw
ing for Prizes.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, September 29.-At-
torneys defending United States Sen
ator James ]. Davis from Federal lot
terry prosecution brought out what they
considered a strong point today when
they produced testimony to show that
other lodges besides the Loyal Order
of Moose participated in a drawing
for prizes in January, 1882.
p. A. Shanor, dictator Of New
York Moose lodge, testified that the
drawing included tickets from Knights
of Columbus, Masonic, and Elk chap
tiers and added that Senator Davis held
no Office in any Of these lodges.
Heretofore the jury has known only
that Moose charity balls" were held.
Davis is director general of Moose.
Is secretary Of the Moose propagation
department.
The point the defense may empha-
size is that the alleged lottery was
an enterprise promoted for any lodges
willing to cooperate by B. c. MCGUIRE,
a professional promoter, who pleaded
guilty in the case.
Defense Advance Offset.
On redirect examination of Shanor,
Prosecutor LOUIS Mead Treadwen off,
set the defense advance somewhat by
introducing circulars which gave the
result of the drawing.
The circular used by the Knights
the words:
I'm association with the Loyal Order
OF Moose"
Treadwell held up a Moose circular.
II call your attention to the fact that
the Moose circular says nothing about
association with anybody else," he said
TO the jury.
Rodney H. Brandon public welfare
commissioner of Illinois and former
supreme dictator Of Moose, was recalled
to the stand to complete testimony
started earlier in the trial. His recall
as witness was made possible by the
courts ruling yesterday, which per-
mitted evidence relating to q 1880 al
legged lottery to show motive" for q
I similar enterprise in 1881.
Says He Opposed Method.
Brandon testified that he opposed
the method of fund raising used by
the Moose in 1880.

HAVANA, September 2s.-Another
element In the complex Cuban political
scene was projected into the foreground

Other questions were shunted aside

The general strike" was urged by

tribute to Julio Antonio Mella, stu

in Mexico in 1929. and was timed to
coincide with the burial of his ashes.
Street Cars to Be Stopped.
Several merchants declared their es-
tablishments would remain open, but
street cars were to be stopped and taxi
cab and garage operators indicated
their sympathy with the proposal.

The new proposal is that instead
of making the banks pay for the in

Any depositor could decline to paw
the fee and stay outside of the guar

Legislation along one or more Of the
lines indicated may be expected at the

MARC0N| ARRIVES

Noted Inventor Declares He
Has Hobby in Electro
Chemistry.
Nv the Annotated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 29-Gugli-
elmo Marconi disclosed yesterday that
he has q hobby; it is electro-chemistry
Marconi, whose flrst wireless patent
was obtained In 1895, arrived with his
wife on his first visit to the United
States since 1927.
The Chicago Worlds Fair will cele-
brate "Marconi Day" Monday and the
famed inventor will participate.
Although saying he is making electro
chemical experiments-which he con-
siders as a sideline to his continued
endeavors to make wireless more and
more practical-Marconi declined to
involved.
Hopeful for Television.
Refusing to venture a prophecy on
the future Ct wireless, Marconi said he
believed television was definitely emerg-
ing from the research stage and would
find an excellent medium for its trans
mission In the micro-waveS he has
been investigating from q practical
standpoint the last three years.
The present experiment with micro
| waves is not the first time Marconi has
tried out these channels, which are
measured III CeIltlIneteTS. his present
work has been conducted along cham
mel of 60 centimeters. Back in 1895. he
succeeded in sending 30-centimeter
signal two miles.
Marccni has demonstrated micro
waves can be sent beyond the range OF
vision and that they are unlimited. He
has been able to get 100 miles when
the vision range was only 20 miles and
has obtained good readable signals up
to ITO miles.
Finds Perfect Air Channels.
Micro-waves. he said. are free Of In
.. reference and allow perfect air
channels.
Marconi uses power of only IS watts
in his current work with the waves and
! said he saw no reason why the range
would not increase as the power was
raised.
In micro waves, Marconi visions q
satisfactory outlet for television. They
might, too, he said, make practical the
wireless telephone. even to the pcint
of individual airphones.
Television, in his opinion. will not
be SO valuable as the transmission of
the voice.

It is a step foreseen as future pos

The discussion has gone 30 far, now.
ever. that the sentiment OF industrial
leaders is being canvassed quietly.
4
From the day that Mr.. Roosevelt
excoriated the money changers" IN his
inaugural address, there has been much
bad feeling between the administration
and o large section Of the banking
world.
Some oficials have indicated pretty
plainly their conviction that the Amer
lean banking system has ceased TO
function As intended. They cite the
shortage Of credit, at a time when
credit is badly needed for business ex-
pansion, and when the banks have huge
reserves In their vaults.
The bankers retort that the Gov
ernment itself has made lending very
dificult, and in general has put the
banking community into an impossible
position.
Whoever may be right about this. the
significant fact is that the controversy
does exist. Under the circumstances,
those who know the President are not
surprised that he is listening to ad-
visers who think the Government
should 90 more directly into the bank
ing business itself.
The trend Of the present discussion
Is this:
The banks are showing no sign of
taking even large proportion Of the
r. +. G. fund Of $1,000, ,000, 900 which
the Government has offered to lend
them at per cent if they will relend
