NEW YORK, Oct 1s. W.D -
Christian consolation rather than
Intoxicating liquor should be ad-
ministered to Dallas Egan who,
while facing execution in San
Quentin prison set "a bad exam

erend Christian ReiSner of Broad

This action DR.. Reisner said,
"is in line with the spirit of the
day which concludes that liquor
solves all our problems. 1t is an
absolute abuse of the notion of
punishment. 1t does not allow
Egan to face the next world seri-
ously. If he browns his troubles
he cannot think.
Governor Rolph (of Califor-

Fascist guild system of Italy.
Party Spreads
Strong Nazi parties have develop
ed in Czechosloyakia, Norway, ES-
thonia and other countries and arc
fighting democratic parties.
All are motiYated by the convic-
ton that democratic government is
inefficient and that in the future
peoples must look to enlightened
Fascist rulers for guidance and fol-
low them unquestioningly.
The new organization would make
no clear division between Commur-
SIN, Socialism, liberalism or demo-
cracy, but seek to jettison all.
In 1864 organized labor formed
the first international. 1t was a
trades union organization. Karl
Marx drew up its platform. 1t ex-
pired after the Philadelphia con-
gresS in 1876.
The second or socialist interna-
tional was formed in 1889. Mainten-
ance of world peace became its main
tenet.
When war broke ont in 1914, the
members of the second information
al went to war, fighting each other.
After the war, the congresses were
resumed with Amsterdam as head
quarters.

whisky he can stand.o

EVANSTON, Ill, Oct. 10. W.D =
The action of Gov. James Rolph OF
California in providing a condemn
ed prisoner with whisky just be-
fore his execution was turned into
an argument against the use OF IN
toxicants today by the Women IS
Christian Temperance Union.
Commenting on the act, Mrs.
Anna Marden Deyo, former Cali
fornian and friend of the governor
said:
1.-The fact that Governor Rolph
is giving whisky to a condemned
man just before execution to give
him a false sense of happiness and
dull his senses is a good argument
against the use of whisky in this
age when every faculty should be
well balanced and alert

las Egan spent his last few hours
on earth with the prison chaplain
it would do him more good than
all the Bourbon whisky In the
world" Mrs. Aimee Semple McPher-
son, California evangelist. comment
ed today.
Mrs. Mcpherson said:
II am really not in a position to
criticize the governor of my own
state. Probably the reason 1t was
given the condemned man was to
help tighten his burden, but a few
hours with the prison chaplain
would do him more good than all
the Bourbon whisky in the world.

The name Benjamin Winter still
carries prestige in negotiations of
this sort. His first actual trade was
made in the BronX-a long dis
lance from Fifth and Park
avenues, where he had triumphed,
but Bronx money was none the
less valid.
Instead of top class hotels in
aristocratic neighborhoods, his
Bronx building was a fve-and-a-
half-story walk-up, then in the
unwilling hands of mortgage
holder.
A few weeks later he bought the
famous old Hermitage Hotel, at
the edge of Times square, and a
little later group of buildings at
Forty seventh street and Sixth

THE specified cash down pay

more than a sixth, possibly
tenth, of the amount customary
in normal times. And with each

cases of Martin Levy, proprietor of
a restaurant at 1913 South Meridian

selling beer without retail license.
The case had been set for hear
ing Tuesday before Joseph Markey,
judge pro TEN. in municipal court,
and a motion to quash the affi-
davit was filed by the defense, set
ting forth that the facts alleged in
the affidavit do not constitute a

be considered preliminary to de-
cision on the motion to quash.
Levy began selling beer without
license Saturday, citing the de-
cision of Criminal Judge Frank P
Baker that the beer law is invalid

PACT MENACES
TRADE OF u. 5.
IN ARGENTINA
British Sign Agreement to
Run Three Years; Gain
Many Advantages.
STRUGGLE FOR MARKET
Need of Prompt Action by
Roosevelt Seen to
Offset Treaty.
BY HERBERT MOORE
United Press STAFF Correspondent

Copyright 1888. by United Press
LONDON, May "a comprehen-
sive trade agreement which serious
ly may threaten the foreign trade of
the United States was signed Tues
day by Great Britain and the Ar
gentine republic.
Reciprocal trade and monetary
exchange advantages between Eng
land and the Argentine were re-
vealed in the text of the pact. OBJ
tanned exclusively by the United
Press here.
These advantages, it was felt, may
prove a serious setback to the
United States unless President
Roosevelt launches a prompt and
powerful counter-offensive against
what already has developed into a
new Anglo-American struggle for
the rich Argentine markets.
Pact Runs Three Years
The agreement is to run for three
years. 1t was understood = is one
of three trade treaties which gen
tina intends making with val. us
countries.
The pact is called an accessory
convention to the treaty of 1925
between Britain and Argentina. A
supplementary tariff agreement is to
be negotiated shortly at Buenos
Aires, the text stipulates.
The supplementary accord, it
stipulates, must be negotiated prior
to Aug. l, mutually revising tariffs
which British hopes will be reduced
on certain articles, enabling her
manufacturers to outsell the United
States in the Argentine.
Light automobiles and certain
grades of textiles particularly would
be affected, it is hoped in British
circles. They argue that Argentina
can compensate for this loss Of rev.
enue by raising the duties on heavy
motor cars and other items.
Old Treaty Reaffirmed
The convention features q tariff
truce pending the conclusion of the
supplementary agreement.
The century-old most favored
nation treaty between England anc
Argentina is reaffirmed in this pact
which definitely rules out discrim-
inatory tariff preferences.
The pact has among its CHIEF
objects the following:
l. To mitigate the harsh effect o.
the Ottawa imperial conference
trade agreement on the Argentine
meat trade.
2. To appeasc bitter British pro
tests against blocking remittance
by Argentina's foreign exchange re.
strictions, and to prevent furthe,
such freezing Of payments.
Tariffs Rearranged
3. To rearrange tariffs, especially
Argentina's, to stimulate trade.
significantly, the convention safe
guards United States bondholders
because it establishes formally The
priority of foreign debt service over
all other remittances.
Foreign exchange will continue Il
be controlled by the Argentine gov.
eminent, but with provisions for E
more liberal allotment to. British
traders and investors.

PROBATE OF SOURBIER
WILL IS HELD UP
Objections Filed by Son
Seeking Share of Estate.

Probate of the will of Edward G.
Sourbier, I'll East Forty second
street, former sheriff, county clerk
and county treasurer, was blocked
today by objections filed by his son,
Theodore j. Sourbier.
Judge Smiley N. Chambers will
not accept the will, disposing of an
estate estimated at 100000, until
objections are removed.
In suit filed Tuesday afternoon,
the son said he has been informed
the will leaves all the estate to his
mother, Mrs. Nellie Sourbier, and
others, to his exclusion.
The son charges Sourbier was of
unsound mind at the time he exc
cuted the will.
AS heir-at-law, Sourbier contends
one-half of the estate should go to
him and the remaining half to his
mother.

at odd jobs, did general contract
