SIGNS OFFICIAL
STATEMENT
To POLICE
Lawyer Refuses to Act for
Kenneth But Is Ready to
Be Counsel for Cyril

HARWICH Mass, May 8
0.N.SO Kenneth Buck assumed
the entire responsibility for the
kidnapping of 10-year-old Peggy Nc
Math in a statement made this
afternoon to Police Chief EmulouS
Hall.
Kenneth, brother of Cyril Buck,
also held in connection with the
abduction of Peggy, stated that
there was mo other person impli-
Gated" in the crime and that he
was the originator and wanted to
take all the blame.
Official Statement
An official stenographer took
down Kenneth's statement, made
at the Barnstable county Jail.
Those present, beside Kenneth
and Chief Hall, were Sheriff L. M.
Croker Lawrence Buck, brother
of the prisoner, and William Ellis,
Q friend.
Kenneth also revealed that
Peggy was kept prisoner in
another part of the kidnapping
shack" than the section he pointed
out on Sunday.
He had marked a part of the
subcellar of the building as the
place where Peggy had been keeps
captive.
Today, he described the hide
away as "a compartment" and
not dungeon"
He explained the correction by
saying that police had led him
to that spot on Sunday.
Meanwhile, James F. Herman
Wareham attorney conferred for
o long time in the Jail with Cyril
Buck, brother of Kenneth. Kier-
nan said that under no circum-
stances would he represent Ken,
meth, but that he would defend
Cyril if the story he had told him
proved true.
Cyril, in his conversation with
Herman, told the details of his
negotiations between Kenneth
and Neil McMath, father of
Peggy, for the return of the child.
LunCnbOX PROOF
The bringing of the blue lunch
box which Peggy had taken to
school on the day of the kidnap-
ing was the means of satisfying
the parents of the child that the
negotiations were authentic, Cyril
told the lawyer.
Cyril also stated that nobody
else was involved in the kidnapping.
He pictured himself as an inno-
cent intermediary and said that
he was mixed up in this because
of my assumption that Kenneth
had got involved with some boot
leggers and was on the spot"
Cyril told Herman.
$50 I decided to help him."
Peggy, the brave little miss who
showed she was real thorough
bred when she was in the hands
OF the kidnapers, has become
somewhat of a local heroine.
Looking none the worse from her
experience. she has returned to
school.

RAILWAY PLANS
To COST MANY
WORKERS JOBS
Senate Hears Elimination of
Waste Demands Severe
Methods Along Line

A blunt warning that many rail-
road employees will lose their jobs
under the Roosevelt emergency
rail relief plan was voiced before
the Senate Interstate Commerce
Committee today by Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Joseph
B. Eastman.
Appearing to explain and in
dorse the bill, Eastman declared:
1.-THE proper policy for the
Government and the railroads
to pursue under such circum-
stances is SO far-reaching a ques-
ton that 1 hesitate to express an
opinion"
Will Cost Many Jobs
FISHERMAN prefaced his re-
marks on the unemployment
angle to the railroad reorganiza-
ton plan by saying:
upon one point there should
be no misunderstanding on the
part of Congress. To a very
considerable extent the elimina-
ton or reduction of wastes will
involve loss of employment to
railroad labor.
But economies in operation
and service mean reduction in
labor, and there is no escape
from it. And any plan for
alleviating this situation by
retirement allowances or PEN
SiOns or any similar scheme will
to that extent prevent realiza-
ton 70 the savings.
MUST ELIMINATE WASTE
"The railroads are threatened
not only by present economic
conditions but by severe COM
petition from other Transports
ton agencies. Their future
contribution to their own and
the public welfare is dependent
upon their ability to operate
with the least possible burden
of waste. In many instances
they will need to reduce their
rates. From a long range stand
point, certainly, avoidance of
wastes is in the interest of their
employees, for it will tend to re-
move threat to fair wages and
working conditions"
Eastman urged a huge Govern
ment program to relieve unem-
ployment. He said:
81 hope to see an attack of
this character made along o
wide front, and apparently one
is about to begin. A public
works program might we'll in
clude widespread elimination of
railroad grade crossings 1T
public expense.
"ProbabIy the immediate blow
to labor can in many instances
be cushioned somewhat, and
the employees may sOlace them
selves with the thought that
the results from this bill can
not definitely be predicted, for
the reasons which 1 have al
ready indicated, and that they
may not be in as early or as
great danger as some of them
may think. However, one of
the first results of any positive
improvement of railroad earn
ings will undoubtedly be in
crease in the amount of main
tenanCe work and labor"

A warfare of determination
against labor racketeers was de-
cIared today by Mayor Edward
J. Kelly, enraged by the out
law teamsterS' union strike
which has shut down 1O8 of the
city's 200 coal yards. Union
strife has called out 1900 men.
Mayor Kelly, advised that the
strike was inspired by the Ca
pOne syndicate, announced:
1--WE will show results in
actiOn-nOt in wOrds!"
At a conference between the
Mayor, States Attorney Thomas
]. Courtney and leaders of
organized labor, it was said
that member dealers were con-
WINGED that the strike was called
to force the association into
joining the trucking and trans
port agency, known as the
TINT, an agency allegedly con-
trOlled by Murray HUMPHREYS,
successor to AL CapOne.
HUMPHREYS is said to gain $780,

Light Workouts
For Lion ELeUen
As Game NeGrs

TUCSON, Ariz., Dec. 29.-Co-
lumbia University's football team
will take only easy workouts to-
day and tomorrow in preparation
for the Rose Bowl game with
Stanford New Year Day.
Coach Lou Little said this morn
ing his team was physically per-
feet and he did not intend to take
a chance on either injury or
staleness.
The players are eager to get at
Stanford. The natives here, who
have seen many teams practice
on their way to Rose Bowl duels,
say they never saw a team so
eager to battle as the Columbia
squad.
The boys think they have a
great chance to score the major
upset of the season despite a dis
parity Of Is or more pounds per
man in weight.
Little intended to take the
final workout tomorrow morning
but decided today to switch to
an afternoon session and then
move on to Pasadena where the
team will rest until game time

PASADENA, CAL, Dec. 29.-
Illness today struck at Stanford's
chance for victory over Columbia
University in the anual Rose Bowl
football game here New Years
day.
lobby Grayson, stellar sopho-
more fullback, was stricken sud-
denly with a cold that bordered
upon influenza and was confined
to bed at hotel by DR.. E. F. Roth,
team physician.
DR.. Roth reported that Grayson
was suffering from the same all
ment that kept Yves Muller, giant
center, in a hospital for four days
Claude Galloway also was visited
by the malady that threatens to
weaken Stanford ranks. Muller
left the hospital yesterday.
Jack Hillman, first string full
back in 1892, who was replaced by
the spectacular Grayson this
autumn, is ready to resume his
old position.

ford continued to allow his players
to enjoy themselves at practice
sessions yesterday in which the
cards stressed forward passes, and
a running attack that varied
sharply from the one used sue
cessfully against the University OF
Southern California.
Thornhill today was to stress
defense. He delayed this task until
the last minute because he wants
his team members to have his In
structions fresh in their minds
when they attempt to stop Cliff
Montomery and his Eastern team
mates.
Thornhill has a peculiar way OF
preparing his players for a rlvals
attack. He does not burden them
with a lot of diagrams but simply
tells them of the formations that
will be used and what to expect

Stein is out today with a
damaged ankle, having sprained
it in the last four minutes Of play
last night. He ran into a pile
of performers trying to edge bis

out of it with a most painful in

Rough Game
The game, incidentally, became
SO rough that Coach Ted OLeary
pulled out one or two Of his other
regulars to assure their appear

night.
The Colonials won last nights
engagement with plenty to spare
and had not Stein been injured,
would have added a most gratify-

Now, however, the Colonials
feel somewhat disheartened, as
they realize their chances Of
winning against City College Of

Howell Stars
Jimmy Howell, Bill Noonan and
Jimmy Smith were the stars last
night, the first named gathering
seven baskets and nine fouls for
% points, Noonan collecting eight
floor goals for 16 points and
Smith garnerine four baskets for
eight points.
The Colonials lost little time
in getting into the van and lost
even less time in increasing their
advantage as the game progressed.
At half time they led, 28-5.

because they pounded out more
