cattle found their job expensive when complaints
began to come in about damage the cattle had COM
mitted The cattle were assigned to the herders on
head basis-each herder to receive $1OO head for
every animal detailed to his charge rs cents of this
amount was paid when the cattle were put in pas
ture, and another rs cents thereafter but the
remaining 90 cents was held out until recently The
Minnesota cattle were easily handled being used to
being fenced n but the western cattle found barbed
wire fence to be little impeachment to their wander
lngs. These cattle broke out of the enclosures and
devastated farmers property for miles around Near
ly 400 damage claim were received by the committee
on damages, and all these settled but three out
OF the fund which the government had reserved to
pay the herders Lengthy Investigations entered
into to determine that actual damage had been suf
Tered by the claimants, and in many cases the de-
mands were materially reduced before settlement was
mace. Nevertheless some of the herders found that
there was nothing left for them after the claims for
damages against the cattle in their charge had been
settled.

Bruno Hauptmann's urgent plea for

trcversy among his attorneys Tues
day and presaged an open break
with Edward J.. Reilly, chief de-
tense counsel.

Hauptman from the death house In
state prison requested G. Lloyd
Fisher Pennington attorney and as
sociate defense counsel to start

Hauptmann'S action tended to
crystalize an uncertain state OF af-
fairs existing In the ranks Of counsel.
During the trial, reports Of III feel

Fisher "a 70 request an order from

ton would be delayed indefinitely

MEANS NOTHING

TO LITTLE NJ A NJ

WASHINGTON. FEB. 10. - Pt-
Here's ar Allegiance at what
the gold decision means:
TO the wT.nkled dollar bills In
your pocket-nothing. with q big
aN". They'll buy Just as much a.
they did yesterday and still make
100 pennies. 20 nickes, 10 dimes
and four quarters.
To the $1,000 railroad bond
which you may own and which has
a clause promising TO pay in the old
dollar or its equivalent In gold, the
decision means nothing.
You can collect $1,000 In the kind
OF dollars you've been using ever
since the government cut-on its
account books - the gold content
Of the dollar from asa grams 70
Is sal grains.
TO the holder OF a $1,000 gov
eminent bond promising 70 pay IN
gold OF the old dollar which to-
day would mean $3.50 In the de-
valued dollar-once again prac-
tically nothing. The court held
the government didn't have the
right to break its promise TO pay
the bond In the old gold dollar
but try and collect The court Of
claims won't receive your suit so
the only thing left Is TO accept
$1,000 in the kind OF dollars you've
got in your pocket now.
tn the holder OF gold certtfl-
Gates - II you've got one you hold
II illegally and are subject to pros
ecution. II you put in your claim
for an extra payment In the de-
valued dollars when you turned
the certificates over to the gov
eminent. II won't mean much.
The court held in effect that
$3.50 In devalued dollars was due
for every $1,000 In gold certifi-
Gates but like the federal bonds
