Glencoe in State
Tourney; Defeats
MOntevideO A-21

Glencoe entered the state bask-
etball tournament by defeating
Montevideo for the region three
championship, "a to 21 Saturday
night in the New Ulm armory. In
the consolation tilt, Sleepy Eye
was forced into an overtime per-
iod to take the decision from
Hendricks 37-36.
In the state tourney which
opens today in the Minneapo-
lis auditorium, Glencoe will meet
Buhl winner in region seven at A
p. m. Bemidji and st. Paul Hum
boldt inaugurate the play off at 8
p. m. In the evening Austin will
engage Luverne at 8 p. m. follow
ed by Edison and Crosby-Ironton.
The semi-fnals will be played Fri
day night and the finals Saturday.
Montevideo, representing dis
trict II, won in a bitterly fought
game from Sleepy Eye, district
10 champ, 1927, while Glencoe,
titleholder of district II, walked
away from Hendricks, winners in
district nine, 1919 in first round
games Friday.
The Montevideo-Sleepy Eye af-
fair was nip and tuck battle all
the way and it took two long
shots from the center of the floor
by Montevideo in the closing min
utes of the fourth quarter to de-
eide the game. The Indians de-
tense suffered considerably when
Kuester, a pillar of strength in
that respect, was retired on fouls
early in the third quarter. john
son, Monte's lanky center, was the
victor's offensive star, playing a
spectacular game with his snaky
shots with either hand from the
hole position, while Kleinschmidt
led Sleepy Eye in scoring, by
caging three-fourths of his teams
points, including IA of the In
dians' first 16 scores.
The small but scrappy Hend-
ricks five had little chance against
Glencoe's strong aggregation, the
latter assuming a commanding
lead at the outset and holding
its opponent well in check.

CODES HELD
INEFFECTIVE
"ChiseIing" Feared Unless
Strong Substitute Is
Found for Eagle

From the shattered fragments
of the NRA structure, President
Roosevelt and his advisers today
were seeking ways to erect a new
and more lasting citadel which
would house labor and industry
in peace.
It is the hope of the Admins
tration that from the ashes Of
the Blue Eagle, concededly dead,
will rise the protecting wings OF
a, Phoenix, strong enough to beat
down the surging wave Of discor1.
tent which today sweeps the
ranks of labor following the Su-
preme Court decision which multi
fled compulsory enforcement of
codes and minimum wages and
maximum hours.
Course Uncertain
How the Administration is to
circumvent the strongly worded
decision of the Supreme Court
and yet reach the goal it has in
mind remains a puzzle.
Two other courses for labor
and industry can be charted by
the President. One would mean
scrapping altogether the provi-
sions of the NRA. The other
would call for voluntary submis-
sion by industrialists to codes
much as they existed under N2A.
Wage cuts and increased hours
of labor already have appeared in
Southern textile mills, while in
the North and West there arises
the ugly spectre Of a nationwide
coal strike.
To abandon the principle OF
NRA completely is to Mr.. Roose'
velt's mind, and to those about
him, unthinkable, and not to be
seriously considered.
ChiselerS Feared
To place any dependence upon
the efficacy of voluntary agree
ments is risky business, for he
believes, as do his advisers, that
there will always be small minor
ity, a socalled "chiseling fringe"
that will defeat the intentions of
the majority of an industry, no
matter how sincere or well inten-
toned the majority may be.
There remains, then, the course
of rewriting the recovery act

TRIBUTES PAID
j. 8, WAR DEAD

Although it rained steadily
until late in the morning, Wash
ington today did honor to its war
dead in traditional manner.
Because of the rain, the pro-
posed parade which was to have
passed in review before President
Roosevelt at the White House, was
called off. Otherwise Memorial
Day services went off on schedule.
Senator Dickinson Talks
Thousands of persons, carrying
umbrellas and wrapped up in rain
coats, trekked to the amphi-
theater in Arlington National
Cemetery where the $4,000 war
dead of America were honored in
impressive services from IL to /
o'clock. The rain stopped an hour
or so before they began.
Senator L. j. Dickinson, (R), of
Iowa, chief speaker at the Airing
ton services, paid tribute to the
heroism of the men who have
given their lives to their country
in all of it's wars.
James G. Yaden, president of
the Memorial Day Corporation,
which had charge of the days
program, presided at the amphi-
theater service.
Hundreds of men, women and
children made pilgrimages to the
tombs of the war dead in Airing

Meanwhile, belief spread that
the 9-year-old heir to the Weyer-

put to death. The parents, Mr..
and Mrs. John Philip Weyerhaeu-
ser, who have met every demand
made in the note of the kid
napers, were on the verge OF col
lapse as the Zero hour" passed
and the kidnapers had made no
effort to collect the ransom
money that had been ready for
them since last Sunday.
Apparently insurmountable evil
dence developed today that the
kidnapping was the work Of the
Karpis gang.
Way Left Open
Although Federal agents and
police detectives throughout the
Northwest pressed the hunt for
Karpis and ran down every clue
that might lead the kidnaperS of
their victim, the way was left open
here for a contact to be made.
Today, the sixth day since the
kidnapping, found the victims fam

Brother Of Admiral Wizards
Widow Disappears on Way
to Brandon Estate

Virginia police today were
combing the State for an auto
mobile identified as belonging to
J. M. Ellison of Brandon, Va.
The car was seen early Tuesday
fleeing from pursuit in Radford,
so miles south of Roanoke, after
the driver had refused to pay his
gasoline bill. s
Mr.. Ellison left washington for
hts home Sunday afternoon abo,it
S go after visiting his, sister, Mrs.
Arthur L. willard, at her apart
ment in the 2100 block Connec-
ticut Ave. Mrs. willard is the
widow of Rear Admiral Arthur L.
Willard, U. S. N, who died last
month.
According to the story Mrs. Will
lard told a Washington Times re-
porter, based on information re"
ceived from Government agents,
the man who fled in the car was
a young man. Her brother is 81.
Fears Foul Play
When Mr.. Ellison failed to ar
rive home by noon Monday, Mrs.
Willard said she notified the De-
partment Of Justice, and late last
night Federal agents working on
the case telephoned her about the
Radford incident. She hoped to
receive another report later to-
day.
Nervous and fearful after an
anxious night. Mrs. Willard, so
cially prominent here, said:
''My brother had q habit of
giving strangers a lift. That is,
if they looked all right. After
the report 1 received last night
feel sure that something dread
full has happened.
"My brother would never drive
off without paying his gasoline
bill, and no one would take
him for a young man. He was
cheerful when he left and look
ing forward to getting home.
"He never carried large sums
of money with him. When he
paid off the employees on the
Daniels estate, he did so by
check"
ARRIVED SATURDAY
Mr.. Elliott lives with his wife
and daughter in Brandon, Mrs.
Willard said. Two sons are attend
ing the University of Missouri.
Washington police have broad.
cast lookout for the missing car.
Mr.. Ellison came to Washing
ton last Saturday, Mrs. Willard
told authorities, as it was his Gus
tom to visit. her about twice a

He left late Monday afternoon,
saying he wanted to reach Freder-
icksburg before dark.
He failed TO reach Brandon, but
on Tuesday his car. light coupe,
was reported as stopping at a
Radford filling station, having
the tank filled with gasoline, then
speeding away without paying the
operator of the station. Police
Chief C. M. Howell pursued the
machine but it escaped. He OBJ
tanned the license number, how
