u. S. Diplomat Says He Loues
French More Than Americans
Paris Embassy Officials
Statement Is Made
in InterUietU.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Should an American diplomat tell
the country to which he Is assigned
that he loves that country more than
his own?
This is the question which is being
raised by an exclusive interview
granted by James Theodore Mariner,
the counselor of the American en-
bassy in Paris to a French newspaper.
The diplomat is purported to have
said:
Il love the French more than I love
the Americans because I am a direct
descendant Of q Huguenot family
which emigrated from France after
the Edict Of Nantes and settled in
Boston"
State Department officials who
never allow themselves to be quoted
while in Washington, are apparently
released from this ''unwritten law" as
soon - they 60 abroad.

CANNON Jury TOLD
OF WOMAN'S WORK
Prosecution Calls Justice
Expert to Describe Sec
retary's Handwriting.

Turning aside for the moment from
the political activities Of Bishop
James Cannon, jr., the prosecution
today will endeavor to tighten the
web of evidence around his secre-
tary, Miss Ada L. Burroughs, at their
conspiracy trial in District Supreme
Court.
Bishop Cannon and his secretary
are alleged to have violated Federal
election laws by conspiring to make
contribution by E. c. Jameson,
wealthy New Yorker, which was used
in 1928 during the bitter campaign
in the South against Alfred e. Smith,
Democratic candidate for the preSi-
dency.
Since the trial started Monday,
Government witnesses have probed
at length the activities of Cannon
during this campaign, but Miss Bur-
roughs' name has been rarely brought
INTO the case.
Expert h Called.
In an effort to connect her more
closely with the charge in the In
dictmerit, however, Assistant United
States Attorney John j. Wilson today
summoned as . Government witness
DR.. Bert c. Farrar, handwriting and
tipping expert Of the Treasury De-
partment.
Farrar will be questioned concern
ing q letter written January S, 1929,
to Jameson thanking him for his
contribution and stating the success
Of the campaign would have been
impossible without his help.
Armed with the letter and samples
of typing from Miss Burroughs type
writer in Richmond, the expert will
attempt to demonstrate to the sat
isfaction of the jury that the thank
you" letter was written ON her ma
chine. He also will be asked to
identify handwriting on disbursement
slips and receipts in an attempt to
show Miss Burroughs must have had
some knowledge Of Cannon's financial
transactions during the campaign.
Attorney Rebuked.
AS the trial was resumed shortly
before noon, Justice Peyton Gordon,
obviously angered, administered .
sharp rebuke to Robert H. McNeill,
Cannon's attorney.
McNeill had been cross-examining
Lee P. Oliver, a Department Of Justice
agent, placed on the stand just before
adjournment yesterday by Assistant
United States Attorney Roger Robb.
Oliver had testified on direct ex-
animation concerning four-hour in
terview with Bishop Cannon three
years ago and McNeill accused him
Of relating to the jury only such
portions Of the interview as were
favorable to the Governments case
United States Attorney Leslie c.
Garnett objected to McNeill's attempt
to 60 further into the conversations,
declaring the defense attorney had no
right to bring out self-serving state
ments by Bishop Cannon under the
guise of cross-examination. Waving
his arms above his head. McNeill
arose and shouted:
This witness has already admitted
he didn't state it all. It would be an
outrage not to let it in. I intend to
support my clients rights if the
heavens fall"
Can Get Rights"
Red Of face, Justice Gordon leaned
toward the attorney and declared:
You can get your rights here and
the heavens aren't going to fall either.
But I don't propose to have you tell
ing me what is or is not an outrage
In this court"
As McNeill subsidized, Bishop Cannon
turned in his chair toward the Jury

PLEA ENDS IN RIOT
Harvard Pacifist Meeting
Attacked by Pro-War
Faction.

by the Associated tleSS.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April 13.-
Flying grapefruit and onions today
turned an anti-war meeting of Har-
ward students into burlesque battle.
There seemed to be q division Of
thought on the subject of war versus
peace.
The meeting began as planned.
More than 1000 students gathered In
the Harvard yard for the anti-war
conclave, called by the National
Student League and the Student
League for Industrial Democracy.
I'VE Want War!" Get II!
Scarcely had the meeting got under
way when members Of the Michael
Mullins Chowder and Marching Club
Of Harvard appeared. They very
definitely favored warfare as an in
strument to settle international and
campus disputes.
They shouted I'VE want war" They
got it.
The pacifists were Immediately con-
verted to the idea that war was
all right in such an emergency.
Vegetables filled the air. No one
was hurt. This phase Of the meet
ing might have been more widespread
and longer had not yard police con-
fiscated q considerable quantity Of
grapefruit before the hostilities began.
Fighting Song Is Sung.
One of the pro-war students was
dressed as q Boy Scout and he sound
ed clarion and martial blasts from q
trumpet. Another, dressed in Nad
garb, shouted: Hail Hitler"
While the anti-war groups attempt
ed vainly to address the crowd q vo-
ciferous group broke into q rollicking
song calling upon the students to
fight, fight, fight"
Albert A. Mallinger, Harvard stu
dent, speaking for the anti-war fac
tion, alone was permitted to complete
his address, and that with dinculty.
The meeting practically was dis
rupted when the entire gathering de-
livered a standard Harvard cheer.

Pittenger said he had left a cafe
shortly after l O'Clock this morning
and started south on Buffalo street.
He said he heard some one running
behind him. He turned around and
was accosted by two men, he said, one
Of whom he recognized Immediately as
Dilhnger.
Both men carried machine guns
aimed at him. The man identified by
the officer as Dillnger acted as
spokesman.
I'VE want your vests" the man told
Pittenger.
Pittenger said he seized the weapon
of the man who addressed him and
attempted to wrest it from the
bandits hands. The other man, how
ever, stepped up and poked his
weapon In Pittenger's back.
Leave loose" commanded the man
with whom the officer was struggling.
I'VE don't want to kill you"
Pittenger said the two men then
told him they wanted him to 60 with

WOMAN TO RUN
FOR COLORADO
COvERNORSH|P
Union Coal Mine Operator
Expected to Receive
Labor Vote.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-Miss
Josephine Roche of Denver, prob
ably the best known woman indus
trialist in the nation, announced
here today as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Cover
nor of Colorado.
She will run on a platform sup
porting President Roosevelt and his
new deal policies.
Union coal mine operator and
widely known as liberal indus
trialist, Miss Roche captured control
of the Rocky Mountain Fuel Co. in
1923. She is now it's president.
Because of her espousal of the
cause of unionlSm in the operation
of her mines and her adoption of a
contract with the United Mine
Workers in competitive field for

unions or open shop, her supporters
here expect her to have the backing
of progressive Democrats in her

Chapman, who had been urged to
run for the governorship, but who
declined and announced his indorse-
ment of Miss Roche.
Her opponent for the Democratic
nomination probably will be Edward
c. johnson, present Governor, serv-
ing his first term. Former Gov
ernor William H. Adams is being
urged to run, also, but has not an
nounced a decision.
Miss Roche, Nebraskan, has
lived in Denver since 1906. She
served as the first woman police Of

probation officer of Judge Ben
Lindsey's juvenile court, as an in

They are Felix Gray, city clerk, magis- trate and tax assessor; Tom Cash en, easurer, and Charles Schramm, marshal and street com missioner. H. L.

 John Feusi, veteran member of the Council, and former mayor, rendered his reignation as coun- cilman and his place was filled by the election of Joe Riedi, valued member of several past admins trations. Honorary membership was then conferred on MT. Feusi and he was invited to attend and par ticipate in future meetings.
 Applications for additional I- 'quor licenses for Douglas by Mrs. Joe Riedi and Mike Pusich were approved by the Council. It was decided to enforce the ordinance regulating the automobile traffic prohibiting cars parking within 10 feet of hydrants. And further, cars will not be allowed to park in front of the Owl restaurant on the wharf approach.
 Street work in the town is to be proceeded with to as good ad- vantage as possible, and it was decided to be on the lookout for a grader for that purpose. The water-dam project is to be proceed ed with as soon as federal loan funds are made available.
 Sixteen bills amounting to $1,- 693.21 were ordered paid.

Wrangell Man Loses Valu- able Furs from Cabin
 Former Worker Held

Furs valued at $1 800 were stolen yesterday from the cabin of Stan ley Jekell at Wrangell, according to advices received today at the United States Marshal's office here. Thom- as Tremble, who formerly worked for Jekill, is in custody charged with the theft.
 None of the furs, however, have been recovered. Jekill brought them to Wrangell recently from Canadian territory, where they were taken, and failed to enter them at the Customs Office.
 There were 40 marten, 38 beaver, 12 mink, IT weasel, one muskrat, two wolverine and two land otter skins in the lot.
