DR.. E. budding Found Guiltless Of Crime
For Which He Served Five Years
New Evidence Proves
Point; Feud With
LAWYER Ended

DR.. Earl Ellicott budding is in
nocent of the crime which sent
him to prison for five years al
most a quarter of a century ago.
budding, founder of the Prison
erS' Relief Society, announced to
the world several weeks ago that
next October his wife will become
the mother of baby girl, sired
by a hypodermic needle filled with
a serum derived from cherry
leaves.
Huntington, w. Va, was shocked
in September, 1909, when Dud-
ding, then a prominent business
man, shot and killed his uncle,
Ira S. Chapman.
New Evidence Found
Despite his plea of self-defense,
budding was found guilty of man.
slaughter and sentenced to five
years in Moundsville penitenciary.
1t was while in the prison that
he became interested in prison re-
form work, which led to the
founding of the relief society.
And now budding claims that
new evidence has been discovered
which proves his innocence of the
charge. The prosecuting attorney,
Jean F. Smith, blocked Dudding's
parole plea and refusel to endorse
a pardon petition circulated by
friends.
They Shake Hands
Because of this there was long
a feeling of bitterness between the
two men.
But now the new evidence, so
long hidden, has been brought to
light, and Mr.. Smith has stated
that there is no question that DR..
budding fired in self f-defense.
So on the steps of the court
house where the trial was held
they met and shook hands. Com
menting on this, DR.. budding said:
II never thought the day
would come when I would
shake hands with Jean Smith.
But l did and from now on we
shall be friends.

enough to admit that was i'm.

Vigorous Opposition to Price
Fixing Provisions Regis
tered With NRA
International News Service

Vigorous opposition to the main
price-fixing provisions Of both the
general retail and the retail drug
codes was registered today with
the NRA by the consumers ad-
visory board.
The boards formal complaint
against provisions Of the codes
was filed with Deputy Admins
traitor Arthur D. Whiteside as he
and his aides began drafting a
master" code for submission to
the nations 100000 retailers.
Warns Of GOuging
In the complaint the board con.
tends that cost-plus price-fixing
clauses, unfair trade practice pro-
visions forbidding certain adver-
tising claims, and the fixing of
resale prices on trademarked
goods would result in gouging of
consumers.
The board holds that both the
general retail and retail drug
codes were markedly defective in
protective provisions for consum-
ers, particularly the latter.
In the drug code druggists are
forbidden to sell any standard
goods at less than 80 per cent
more than the invorce cost, excep-
tions being made for seasonal and
damaged but saleable goods.
The consumers advisory board
holds such a provision would pre-
vent healthy price competition
among druggists.
The board does not object to
a net cost plus 10 per cent price
fixing provision in the general
retail code.
Other Objections Listed
On the drug codes proposal to
permit manufacturers to set mini
mum resale price Of their trade
marked articles the board made
similar objections, pointing out
all manufacturers would trade
mark their products and price
competition thus would pass ell
tirely out of the control Of re-
tailers.
Whiteside, however, has ex-
pressed approval of the resale
price-fiXing provisions.

Following a series of conferences
extending over a week, Johnson
announced that COMMITTEES OF
the United Mine Workers and OF
the operators in the Appalachian
bituminous field have reached the
basis of an agreement. He added

visions can be made until there

The negotiations were opened
at the request of President Roose
velt, some Of the operators sitting
across the conference table with
union leaders for the first time.
The Appalachian operators
controlling the largest volume o1
bituminous coal, were represented
by j. D. A. Morrow, James Fran
els, Charles O'Neil and R. D. Tag
CART, while the mine workers were
represented by President John L
Lewis, Philip Murray, Thomas
Kennedy and Van Bittner.
Eagle Drive Moves On
National recovery officials de-
clared that reports from the Blue
Eagle drive, launched in the
nation yesterday, assure coopera,
ton in all sections in the effort
to find jobs for millions OF
people by Labor Day.
A goal Of pledges by 100000
consumers is certain to be
reached, it was declared. Many
towns claimed almost 100 pei
cent success on the first day in
enrolling both employers and
consumers.
AS this plan proceeded, the Ma
tional Labor Board was making
an effort to keep peace in in
duStry. Senator Robert Wagner
Of New York, chairman of the
board, reached Washington anc
was to preside over a hearing
designed to settle the New Or
leans bridge strike.

aid for this purpose.

thorough try-out, the planning
and fair practice committee OF
the industry denied requests for
exemptions from provisions Of the

Truce Will Speed Up Efforts To Draw
Coal Agreement, Is Belief

Public hearings on codes for
five more industries we're begun
today by deputy administrators
Of the NRA. They included glass,
transit, electric battery, artificial
flower, and the throwing indus
tries. The latter spin silk and
rayon thread.
The code which will affect the
most workers is that for the
transit industry. Under it maxi
mum working hours were set at 40
to 48 weekly for various types of
employees.
Approval Of a coal code would
bring the biggest industries of the
nation under the recovery act,
with settlement of the retail code
as the next big problem Of the
Recovery Administration.
The Progressive Miners Of Illi-
noiS will enter the national field
in competition with United Mine
Workers when a coal code is
signed, Claude E. Pearcey, presi-
dent Of the Illinois organization,
said today.
Rival RapS Lewis
Pearcey charged that the de-
mand of President Lewis, of the
United Mine Workers, for recog-
milton of his union had delayed
the completion of a coal code.
The Illinois union leader de-
clared that under labor provisions
Of the recovery act, his organiza-
tion will have a right to organize

would provide for a 4O-hour week
for a six months trial period, but
under the operators share-the.
work program the actual number
of hours a week probably would
be less.
Heads OF the union already
claim to have SO per cent of
the bituminous miners signed to
union membership. Cards have
been issued with dues held in
allegiance until a coal pact and
better business expands employ
ment to the normal number of
more than a half million.
Miners Ask 35 Hours
While the terms of agreement
were carefully guarded, it is
understood they contemplate a
compromise on hours of work,
wages, and the wage differentials
between North and South.
The mine workers insisted on a
30-hour week.
The proposed tentative wage
scale, it is understood, calls for
$3.50 day for inside workers in
Pennsylvania and $4.20 in the
Southern fields. This was still
subject to change, with neither
side satisfied.
Drafted by Johnson
The code was drafted by John
son and his aides during almost
continuous negotiation with the
operators and union leaders for
several days.

Set for "Super-C Cabinet"
Meeting Today
BY International News Service

Winter relief and employment
LIoblems now facing the Admin
istration are expected to be lead
ing subjects at the "super-cabinet"
meeting today, with Harry l.. Hop
kins. emergency relief director,
fresh from a firSt-hand study of

back from comforting with The
President on these problems.
Public summons from Ickes to
state boards to speed all along the
line indicate the pickup in en-
ploy m e mt on publicityfinanced

date.
Not Desirable
The examining board at Wash
ington has been deluged with pro-
jects which have not been desir-
able either from an employment,
or public policy standpoint, while
other local bodies have been slow
in presenting workable plans be-
fore the Administration.
The tri-borough bridge in New
York is one of the practical plans
so far promising effective results.
The public works head also has
a number of slum-clearing pro-
pc5als pending which it is hoped
will care for some part Of the ur1-
employment in municipalities at
empting such improvements.
States Must Act
State legislation is necessary in
some States before funds can be
advanced by the Government, for
Slum-replacement, as not all COM
munities have the machinery for
such undertakings.
Still more urgent need OF spe-
cial legislative sessions has been
stressed by Hopkins, the relief ad-
ministrator, in his week-long air.

For the first time some of these
bodies have had a presentation OF
their responsibilities from the man
who can withhold Federal funds
from their States unless tn e S e
States do their share. His visit
took in the more critical centers,
as we'll as others, so that he is
now able to study State needs
from first-hand information.
Ickes and Hopkins both were
scheduled to attend the meeting,

and heads of the various advisory
groups.

KATHLEEN NORRIS NOVELIST BELIEVES LAWSON NNOCEN7
Free 36 Years,
Slayer Asks
Trial

SAN SALVADOR-An old
man appeared recently before
the First Criminal Court Of
Santa Ana and requested that
he be tried for the murder of
Petro Lopez, which, he said,
occurred ION the night of Octo-
ber 26, 1896, at 7 p. m, 36
years ago, your honor"
Search of the records showed
that Manuel Orellana Blanco,
a young shoemaker, had stabbed
to death Pedro Lopez with a
stiletto. The case had never
been completed, because the
testimony of the police ply
sician was lacking and the
murderer had escapes.
The aged man admitted the
truth of the evidence in the
file and asked that sentence be
pronounced. Then the judge
explained to him that the
statute of limitations had
operated and that he could
not be tried.
