HALL0RAN SET FREE
IN RUTH JUDD CASE
Accessory After Murder
Charges Are Dismissed
by Judge.
SELF UPHELD
Effect on Fight to Save
Woman From GaIIoWS
Is Uncertain.
BY GALE d. WALLACE,
United Press STAFF Correspondent

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 25.
fight of Winnie Ruth
Judd, condemned murderess,
to embroil J. j. Happy jack
Halloran, wealthy Arizona
lumberman, in the murder of
Agnes Ann Leroi, ended I'M
successfully today when COM
plant charging HalIoran as
an accessory after murder,
was dismissed.
Despite testimony by the attrac-
tive blond nurse that ialloran
helped her dismember and dispose
Of the bodies of Mrs. Leroi and
Hedvig Samuelson, Superior Judge
j. G. Niles ruled the state had
failed to prove Mrs. Judd commit
ted murder, and that, as a conse-
quence, Halloran could not be held.
The court pointed out that Mrs.
Judd, testifying for the state,
claimed she killed the women-her
best friends-in self defense.
If this is true" the Judge said,
the facts of murder and the theory
Of self-defense can not be recon-
ciled."
Legal Authorities Confused
Halloran's hearing began a week
ago with Mrs. Judd as the states
star witness. She claimed she killer
her friends in fight over Halloran,
her former admirer.
Legal authorities were confused
as to what effect the decision may
have on Mrs. Judd's case.
At the time of the ruling she was
in her cell in death row at the
state penitentiary, where on Feb.
II, she has been ordered hanged
for the Leroi Staying.
County attorneys and court at
taches were inclined to believe the
decision would help Mrs. Judd only
as it would influence the prison
board Of pardons and parols, which
could intervene.
She already sas an appeal before
the board, taken Immediately after
the state supreme court upheld her
convition.
Tells Details of Killing
Mrs. Judd in five consecutive days
of historical and sometimes inco-
herent testimony, claimed Miss
Samuelson first approached her
with a gun, and that while she
struggled for possession of it, Mrs.
Leroi beat her with an ironing
board. Eventually, she gained pos
session of the gun and killed her
two assailants, she said.
She contended she encountered
Halloran, that he took care of pack
ing the bodies in trunks and per-
suaded her to flee to Los Angeles
where she was captured. Except
for his persua sion, she testified, she
would have notified either her hus-
band or police of the slayings.

said, adding

Concrete Plan Presented.
Yesterdays section Of the survey
sponsored by John D. Rockefeller, J.,
and made by Raymond B. Fosdick and
Albert l.. Scott-presented a concrete
plan for q State liquor monopoly ap-
plicable to American conditions"
Such a state control would take over
as a public monopoly the retail sale
through its own stores of the heavier
alcoholic beverages tor off-premises
consumption.
Foreign experience and our own
analysis Of the problem here and abroad
indicate that such a system makes It
possible adequately to meet an unstimu-
lated demand within the limits Of con-
ditions established solely in the inter-
tests Of society,"" the survey set forth
Omits On-Premises Liquor
The authority outlined In the survey
made no provision for the sale Of heavy
alcoholic liquors for on-premises con-
sumption
such sale" the survey continued, "is
inevitably fraught with danger to the
public interest It Is our hope that q
generous provision for the on-premises
sale Of beer ana natural wine. together
with the sale Of stronger beverages by
the package in the authority's shops
would be accepted as adequate In most
Jurisdictions by a preponderant major
ity Of people"

ASKS HOUSEWIVES
AID TO BUY NOW
Mrs. Roosevelt Urges Spend.
ing of Family Funds to
Spread Employment.

Planned spending Of the family funds
SO that steady flow Of funds into the
hands of labor would result was advo-
Gated by Mrs. Franklin Delano Roose-
welt in her press conference late yes
terday, when she appealed to house
wives throughout the Nation to aid In
the "buy now" movement.
Mrs. Roosevelt at the same time urged
the women Of the country to appeal to
the Consumers County Councils for
solution of the price problems which
puzzle them. These councils, now being
set up, are the suborganizations of the
N. r. A. Consumers Protective Com
mittee, of which Mrs. Mary Rumsey is
Roosevelt during yesterdays press con-
ference.
Sees Aid by Women.
Mrs. Rumsey and have been talk
ing over the effects of the buy now"
campaign and of the Consumers Coun-
cils," Mrs. Roosevelt said. II feel there
are many ways in which women as a
whole can now be made to realize their
responsibility to labor, industry. the
farmers and all the different productive
agencies of the country.
Since they are the major buyers, the
way they spend their money is going to
have an influence on the whole recovery
program"
Mrs. Roosevelt suggested that women
might plan their spending in such a
way as to spread employment For in
stance, she said, instead Of demanding
that several dresses be altered in a great
hurry, thus keeping people working
overtime. the women might plan their
wardrobes far enough in advance so as
to have the work done under the best
working conditions.
One Of the more serious problems
confronting many workers in the "buy
now" movement. Mrs. Roosevelt said, is
the necessity Of paying off old debts
with income from brand-new jobs
Many men, she said, live in fear that
they will lose their positions for being
dunned. The Presidents wife said it
was not her province to suggest a
remedy, but that it might be possible to
create new employers point of view
whereby men would be given an op-
portunity to spend a portion of their
wages for old debts and the remainder
for their new needs.
Outlines Councils Scope.
In outlining the scope of the Con-
sumers' County Councils, Mrs Rumsey
said the economic education conducted
by the councils would walk hand in
hand with the buy now" campaign
The new council, she pointed out. will
be both urban and rural and their
boards will be composed Of persons al
ready in the Government service. The
1000 county agents and the 5000 N. r.
A. groups, she said, will furnish per-
sons with the Consumption economy
point of view"
These councils will enable the rural
consumer and the city consumer to dis
cuss their differences and iron out thd
minor ones right on home grounds, "
Mrs. Rumsey said. AFTER the complaints
have beer. sifted through the funnel,
the ones which are broader and involve
national economy will be sent on to
Washington"
