Macdonald is credited with per-

lowing independence was revealed
here today.
The move was described as "un-
official" but the United States
learned that responsible officials al
ready have started negotiations
with both the Philippine govern
ment and the United States.
Members of the league pointed
out that entry of the islands into
the organization would provide the
United States with the necessary
safeguard on maintenance of their
territorial integrity when complete
liberation is effected.
Officials were uncertain at pres
ent whether membership could be
voted the Philippines before the
ten-year period elapses, but it was
emphasized that America would be
freed of considerable anxiety if the
islands were protected under the
league covenant.
Certain prominent Filipinos anc
members Of congress already have
approached the league regarding the
proposed membership, it was
learned.
1t was asserted that if the United
States fears Japan's intentions ir
the Philippines, the best solution
would be for the islands to have
membership in the league.

PHOENIX, Ariz, Jan. 21.-With
the words "justifiable homicide"
ringing in her ears, Winnie Ruth
Judd, condemned blond tigress"
today grasped at a new ray of hope
which may save her from death.
The startling statement of justifi-
cation for the shooting of Agnes
Ann Leroi and Hedrig Samuelson
came from Judge j. G. Niles Friday
in the fourth day of the preliminary
hearing of J. j. Happy jack
Halloran, charged as her accessory.
The unexpected statement came
after the prosecution had rested its
case against Halloran, based almost
entirely on four days of testimony
| by Mrs. Judd.
Continued Until Today
Judge Niles indicated this would
be his attitude in making a final
ruling on Halloran's motion to
strike out all of Mrs. Judds testi-
mony on the grounds she is "men-
tally and physically incompetent"
The hearing was continued until
today, when he said the county at
torney will be heard in opposition
to the motion, on which the whole
case against Halloran rests.
Mrs. Judd, sentenced to hang Feb.
II, charged that Halloran aided her
in diSposing of the two bodies. She
said she shot in self-defnse when
the two women attacked her.

conviction of the accusing witness,

this case.
This case has been tried on the
theory that the fact Winnie Ruth

The judges statement was taken
to mean that unless county attorney

stronger case, Halloran will be
freed.
While the attitude of the munich
pal court will have no legal bearing
on the state board of paroles, it be-
lieved the decision will carry great
weight with the members when tiiey

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-Wash-
ington and London were preparing
today to revise downward Great
Britain's $4,000, 100000 war debt to
the United States.
State Secretary Henry L. Slim
son called Sir Ronald Lindsay, Brit
ish ambassador, to the state de-
partment Friday night and gave
him the eagerly awaited news that
the United States would be ready to
discuss debt reduction shortly after
March 4.
The British were invited to send
commission to Washington to
carry on the negotiations.
StimSon's assurance was based on
an agreement made at the White
House conference Friday by Presi-
dent Hoover and President Elect
Roosevelt.
They decided that the Hoover adj
ministration should prepare for the
debt discussions so that they may
begin promptly after Mr.. Roosevelt
enters the White House.
While the British commission is
being formed, Stimson and Treas
ury Secretary Ogden Mills will help
Roosevelt prepare for the negotia-
tions.
Beginning this cooperative pro-
gram, Stimson discussed the sit
uation Friday night with Professor
Raymond Moley, one of Roosevelt's
advisors.
+ The administration is hopeful
that Roosevelt soon will name his
secretary of state.
