 What Officer Said
 Steinert, Patrolman Cluney testi- fled, had his car blocking traffic on Bank street last Friday morn ing and was under the influence of liquor. He had him pull around the corner of South Leonard street and then started to take him to the box. He alleged that Steinert struggled with him and that he had o hit him in defense. He said he had pushed away the 15- year old boy but ad not slapped him, and denied that he had struck Steinert while he was on his knees.
 John Commerford, motorman of the Connecticut company, trolley car, testified that Steinert's car had blocked the road, but admitted that cars were parked on both sides of Bank strete. He said he believed the driver was drunk, but was not close to him and had not smelled his breath.
 Morton Williams of South River side street, another state witness. stated that Patrolman CIuney had struck Steinert win his blackjack when he latter attempted to butt him in the stomack with his head. He said that Steinert had walked peacefully to the call box, offering no resistance.

there was no thoughof chastise- ment for Walsh. He is too strong at home.
 There were indications some months ago that the administra- tion would have cheered any en- thusiastice New Dealer who could wrest re-nomination from Senator Royal S. Copeland of New York. Copeland frequently bucked the ad- ministration. But if there was any serious thought given to beating him the project was quickly aban- doned. Copeland is even better vote-getter than Walsh.
 Ferdinand Pecora, banker batter for the senate stock market inves- tigators, would have opposed Cope land in New York if there had been a chance to win. He accepted, instead, appointment to the federal securities and exchange commis- sion. The administration would like to see Pecora in the senate. but did not care to challenge Copeland to put him there.

Steinert Arrest Is
 Aired At Hearing
(Continued from Page 1

Near the end of the hearing the judge commented: According to the stories I've heard here so far, the officer must have been out of his mind, to do the things he did. The testimony so far doesn't re- veal any reason for the officers conduct"
 Many Witnesses Testify
 Witness after witness was brought to the stand in the lengthy hearing, which occupied almost two hours. At the end of the testi- mony this morning, the case tech nically had resolved itself into whether Steinert was drunk at the time or whether he was dazed from the policeman's punches and blackjack blows on the head.
 Frank Lanosa, 15, of Bank street, bystander at the time, told the court that he had been slapped twice by Patrolman Cluney when he attempted to tell the officer that he had already taken the mans driving license, for which he was then asking him. He agreed with Steinert that Patrolman Cluney- had

Upton Sinclair's epic plan fright ened' the administration and in- vited joint republican-d demo cratic assa ut on his candidacy as democratic nominee for governor
 The California political align nlent is precisely the reverse Q. what MT Roosevelt and Farley have in mind for the country as q whole. Their objective is to ab- sorb the progressive elements of both parties in a New Deal organ ization which might or might not retain the democratic label.
 But in California Sinclair took several steps too many to the left The independent, progressive and unerganized moderate groups of voters moved from doubt to fear of Sinclair and finally rallied behind Governor F. F. Merriam, a con servative republican, who can at- tract them chiefly because they like Sinclair less.
 The Sinclair object lesson may be interpreted as a scign of what might happen to the New Deal if its liberalism or so-called radical ism were carried too far. The ad- ministration problem is to be lib- eral enough to attract all progress sives without frightening away the great body of middle voters who probably compose q balance of power.
 Trend In Other States
 The trend away from traditional party labels may be remarked in seates where republican candidates give various degrees of endorse ment oNew Deal Policies. Even Senator Arthur Vandenberg, re- publican, Michigan, who seeks re- election in a state now definitely hostile to the New Deal began his campaign with cautious explana- tions that there was some good in what was flowing from the White House.
 Maryland republicans appeared in their state platform to be ex- ceeding Maryland democrats in their state platform to be exceed ing Maryland democrats in their fervor for New Deal projects.
 Two big eastern states show an- other facet of the existing political Confusion.
 Senator David I. Walsh. demo- crat, Mass, is candidate for re- election. Massachusetts fought for Alfred E. Smith at Chicago. Walsh has been luke-warm toward many New Deal policies and &C., lively in opposition to others. But

of the ardent founders of the ZioE- ist movement. Thousands of Jew ish exiles from Germany, who took refuge in France after Hitler's ad- vent to power were sent to Pales- tine by funds furnished by Baron De Rothschild.
 Baron Edmond was the third son of Baron James De Rothschild, fifth of the soW of Meyer Amschel I Rothschild. Baron James .had been sent by the elder Rothschild to open the firms banking house in Paris thus founding the French branch of the family which has won distinction in finance, industry, art and through fast horses.
 History of Family
 The Rothschild family history can be traced back to a certain Elchanan, at Frankfort in 1546. Isaac, son of Elchanan, was re- sponsible for the family name. When he built a house, he marked it with a red shield. In those days of oppression, Jews were forbidden to have family names, but each house was distinguished by a mark

(Continued from Page 10


 Barce and U. S. District Attor- ney James R. Fleming of Fort Wayne will confer today with Mei- win Purvis, chief of the Bureau of Investigation unit at Chicago. Klinger said.
 Fleming announced the federal government would investigate.
 Of the eight persons released only Ernest Bunk, Lake County deputy sheriff, whom Dillinger kid naped when he left the jail, would talk.
 ''They just kept asking one ques- tion: When are you going to confess,'" Bunk said. Bunk said he understood that Lew Baker, chief deputy and Crown Point jail warden, had the same experience.
 The announcement did not halt the hazing by republican campaign orators which has put the gover- nor on a genuine hot spot since he announced a week ago that an ex- pose of Dillinger scandal was impending. .-.
 Mayor w. Vincent Youkey of Grown Point swore in 25 'emer- gency" city policemen ito resist state authorities in the event Of further kidnapings of citizens"
 It was rumored persistently in the capital that Barce would re- sign today as a result of McNutt's displeasure at the tempest brought down on his head by his nichols of conducting the investigation.
 Purvis Is Surprised
 Chicago, November - (UP) Melvin Purvis, chief of the Chicago unit of the Department of Justice. expressed surprise at announce ment by Governor Paul V. McNutt of Indiana that information regard- ing the escape from the Grown Point, Ind, jail of John Dillinger would be given them at 10 m. today.
