 Trial Plans Under Way
 Preparations for Hauptmann's trial, underway even before he had lost his fight against extraditi0n from Mronx county, New York, where he is under indictment for extortion, were redoubled. Jury Charles Holcombe expected to appear before Common Pleas Judge A. O. Robbins today or Monday with list of AS talesmen from which the jury will be select ed. The talesmen will be drawn from numbered metal discs in a glass bowl, the numbers cores bonding to numbers opposite the names of the 46 men and 19 wom- en who comprise the September jury panel. .I
 Hauptmann was his non-com- municative self in his new sur- roundings. He was lodged in cell of the upper tier.
 Hauptmann's transfer to New Jersey began two hours after the appellate division of the New York State Supreme Court denied his appeal from a decision of the low CT court denying his application for a writ of habeas corpus which his attorney sought to prevent ex- tradition.
 Prosecutor Confident Wilentz expressed confidence the state had sufficient evidence to send him to the electric chair.
 Some of the evidence was re. vealed at the supreme court habeas corpus hearing in New York. II included comparisons of the hand writing on the ransom notes witt some known specimens of Haupt. | mann's script. A witness also tes. tified he saw Hauptmann near ths Lindbergh estate a few days be. fore the Kidnapping. In addition the prosecution vii produce a wood expert who vii attempt to prove that the materia used in the kidnap ladder camt from a lumber yard where Haupt

THE CATHOLICS AND THE MOVIES

The Catholic boycott of uncean pictures IS
causing some stir The industry is taking steps
for it's reform, while the church pushes more Wig
orOusly its campaign.
This move for better morals is easier for an
authoritarian than for the Protestant type OF
church: but it is one into which the Protestant
churches might we'll turn their moral influence.
That the moving picture is one of the most
wonderful means of refining debasing public
taste is too patent to require argument. That is
has been shamefuy perverted to the coarsenlng
of taste the corrupting of ideals, and the under
mining of conceptions of decency, law, and sound
morals, is equally evident.
Fundamentally the cause of abuses has been
the presence of large portion of the public that
delights in filth But that does not excuse the pro-
ducers No man is justified in doing wrong be-
cause somebody invites him to do So Men in posi-
tons of such public infcence as movie producers
cannot be safely allowed to follow nothing but the
profit motive.
1t is a national humiliation that the British
board of censors cuts out long strips from Amerl-
can movies, and that the Italian censorship cuts
out between 40 and so per cent of the pictures
sent out from this country.-Newberry Is. c.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
THE TURMOIL IN GERMANY

Just what is going to happen in Germany, VINO
can tell? One report from Berlin is that Hltlers
arm has been strengthened by his resort to murder
of the leaders who had made bold to oppose his
policies but it is to be remembered that news
coming out of Germany these days is strictly CEN
sored and the man who might smuggle through
true account of actual situations in Hitlers en-
pre, would quickly meet the fate that overlook
the victims of the Storm Troops The ruthless
ness of the Hitler policy is without parallel in the
history of modern nations. The dozens OF leaders
who have fallen under the Hitler bullets have
friends and supporters in all parts of Germany
These may not be able to institute any system OF
revenge lust now but who can doubt that they
will be biding their time and that when they are
organized for action it will be found that Hitlers
"prestige" was anything but elevated by his muir
der orders Hitler has taken up the sword. The
probabilities are that he will perish by the sword
It is not possible for the people outside of Ger
MANY to get correct view of the situation there
and of the probable ending of it. Certain 1t IS
that Hitler has been treading dangerous ground.
For one thing, we may know that the prospect OF
war by Germany has been minimized. The better
is for war in Germany by Germans

THE LoNG-TERM TENDENCY UPWARD

Census surveys reveal that approximately so
per cent of American families, both in city and
country, are not afflicted by heavy mortgage debts.
Abandonment of gold and dollar depreciation
bringing higher prices to producers placed these
debt-free families in the country districts on a
sound economic basis. 1t restored confidence to
debt-free families in the city and, they resumed
buying.
These sources are chiefly responsible for the
present volume of business. There is no doubt
that it will be maintained, although bad political
policies may shake confidence and bring temper

THE LAUGHING PINES TO SING

Soon the lowly Southern pine to whose mourn
ing musings the poet has given the name of sougl-
ing will soon be singing with new ecstacy of
exhiliration. ,...
The supposed reason the pine soughs is because
it has amounted to little in the forest fraternity
It's beauties ere seldom rhapsodized and nobody
ever takes you into the house to show you that
charming four-poster made of old field pine.
When the products of the trees are considered,
the pine is dismissed with the casual thrust that
it gives out only tar pitch and turpentine-rather
material in the marts, but nothing to rave about
elsewhere.
But now the old pine is about to lift its tower
ing head into a new sphere of majestic pride. It
proposes to amount to something and to be some
body. 80 .,-.'
DR.. Charles Herty, famed Southern chemist, has
analysed the character of the Southern pine and
discovers that your newspaper can be printed from
its products.
He set up miniature newsprint mill in Savan-
nah and committee of Southern publishers looked
it over, observed the fine newsprint turned out
and pronounced the experiment worth developing.
And if prospects eventuate into realities soon
the South will have another major industry.
Instead of the United States importing 20 per
cent Oh ltS neWSpEnC chle1ly from Saiaua' IL VIII
be producing right here in the South, out of the
lowly, soughing pines of the Carolinas and ada
cent states, and from the homely trunk of the
despised tree of Southern forests will rise the
giant head of another basic industry.
If you hear, therefore, the moaning pines lift
ing their branches into new chant of halelujahs,
you will understand why its voice has chenged
from dirge to an oratorio of self-praise.
The old pine tree is preparing to step high and
to 90 places.-Charlotte Observer.
