COOPERATION
APPEAL MADE
BY WALLACE

PHILADELPHIA. April .. U.P)-
Secretary of Agriculture Henry A.
Wallace, frequent target of charges
that he was fostering the "regi-
mentation" of agriculture, today
stated fatty his skepticism of the
merits of forcible farm regulation.
Wallace's statement. made in an
address before a regional confer
ence of dairymen, contained a
strong appeal for voluntary efforts
by farmers toward production con-
troll and solution of other agricul-
tural problems.
Il think we must look forward"
said Wallace, Ito more and more
reliance upon voluntary coopera-
ton among farmers. and view pro-
poSals for Recommendation with skep-
ticism. at least aaul experiment
proves their worth
Wallace's expression of reluctance
to embrace the compulsion prin-
ciple was interpreted as a reply TO
administration critics who recent
ly have been particularly severe in
charging that the new deal seeks
to establish "collectivism' and to
regiment" agriculture.

HOPE TO LINK
PISTOL WITH
MADISON CASE

LOS ANGELES, April 2. U.P) -
A 1920 pistol which police said
might prove to be the gun that
killed Eric D. Madison, film studio
worker, was sent to police head
quarters today by a San Fernando
locksmith.
The weapon was turned over to
Spencer Monkey. ballistics expert,
who said that though some pre-
vious poSsessor had filed away most
of the markings, he had overlooked
one, which would be sufficient to
identify the gun.
Officers would not say who left
the gun with the locksmith for a
minor repair.
Meanwhile, as Madisons widow,
Nellie, awaited trial on charges
of numbering him, deputy sheriffs
were investigating a supposed ro-
nance between her and cowboy
near Indio. An officer was to re-
turn with the cowboy late today
Capt. William Bright of the sher-
ifs homicide detail said he was
examining a theory that the widow
did not, after all, spend the eight

vigil in the Burbank apartment
where he was shot.
