YOUNG PAYNE
FOUND INSANE

LOS ANGELES, Jan. "a W.p) -
The shadow of the gallows was
lifted from Louis Rude Payne, 49,,
today by a superior court jury
which found he was insane when
he killed his mother and younger
brother with an axe last May 30
Although a previous jury con-
victed him of first degree murder
in the death of Mrs. Carrie Payne,
40, and Robert Payne, 16, the Sec
ond jury held he was irresponsible
after it deliberated evidence of a
two-week hearing only three and
a half hours.
Under the verdict, the youth will
be confined to an asylum for at
least a year. After that period, if
found sane, he will be released, ac-
cording to the district attorneys
office
The boy received the verdict un-
emotionally. His pale countenance
wore the same blank expression
that masked his demeanor when
the previous jury convicted him
and then deadlocked on his in
sanity plea. A sanity verdict by
the second jury would have i'm
posed an automatic death penalty.
LuciuS B. Payne, st. Louis utili-
ties executive, was deeply moved
by the verdict. Through the
tragedy that had robbed him of
his wife and one son, he had stood
staunchly by his elder son and had
hired psychiatrists who testified
Louis was deranged at the time of
the slayings.
After hacking his kinsmen to
death, Louis remained in the house
more than "a hours before he fled.
He surrendered three days later to
suburban police and confessed, de-
claring some compelling psychosis
or his ''other self" goaded him.
His father, who was in st. Louis,
later testified that he had shown
signs of insanity from boyhood.

He Looks Everywhere

Waiting until the bunny child
rem were safely on their way to the
Hollow Tree School where the Lady
Mouse would teach them, Uncle
Wiggily hoped over the fields and
through the woods. With his bright
eyes he looked here and there for
holes-holeS in the ground, holes
under rocks or stumps, holes be-
meath fences, holes inside hollow
stumps and holes in hollow logs
that had once been fine trees but
which had fallen to the ground
and had rotted away. -.
"Ha, there are many safety holes
here" said Uncle Wiggily as he
saw a large one beneath a stump.
"Room for five rabbits in there.
Mr.. Longears looked carefully
around so he would know how TO
find this safety hole again when
he needed it in a hurry. What the
rabbit gentleman was doing was
finding as many holes as he could
on the road to the Lady Mouse
Teacher IS school. Then he would
show lhe bunny boys and girls
where these holes could be found.
"Then," said Mr.. Longears to
himself as he saw another hole be-
meath big rock, "Baby Bunty and
the others can hop down into these
safety holes and hide when they
+ smell, hear or see danger and they
have no time to run away from it. -
That is why Uncle Wiggily want
ed to find as many safety holes as
he could. He knew that many
+ times when his little bunnieS might
I smell. hear or see danger, as he had
taught them, they would not get a
/ chance TO run away before danger
would be upon them.
"It is then they must hide in a
safety hole" said Uncle Wiggily as
/ he hoped along. ''If they hide in
a hole the Fox, the Wolf OF the
Bob Cat cannot so easily fine
/ them.
f'5 Danger Signs
] So Uncle Wiggily hoped along
! until he had found forty 'leven six
teen safety holes in the woods and
/ fields-one for each of his rabbit
children and Baby Bunty also
Then, all Of a sudden, Uncle Wiggi-
ly heard danger. He smelled dan
ger. He saw danger. It was the
Bob Cat coming toward him.

JAPAN AND CHINA AGAIN

Another serious disturbance between
Japan and China looms as a result of the
clash between armed forces on the
border between Chahar province and the
puppet state of Manchukuo, the latter
being the former Chinese province of
Manchuria, now an independent" govern
ment controlled and upheld by Japan
~ese influence.
Japan claims that it seeks only to
quell the operations of irregular" gov
ernInent in Chahar, maintained by the
Chinese general, Sung Chi-Yuan, which
threatens the peace Of Manchukuo.
China sees in this claim thinly-
cloaked desire for additional territory on
the part of Japan.
Western nations may we'll wonder at
Japan's naive statement that the clash
between the armed forces does not in any
way threaten the peace between China
and Japan. That is, they would wonder
unless they happen to recall that the ex-
tensIve military operations carried on in
China a few years ago by Japan, which
was war without question, was not so
considered by the Toxic government To
them it was peace but no peace as the oc-
cidental recognizes it.
Japan "got away with it, when
Manchukuo was taken away from China.
The latter nation, unable to help itself,
was not given any assistance by those ma
tions which might have been justified in
helping, in return for the exploitation
they have carried on in China, if for no
other reason. If Japan really has its
eyes on Chahar, and proposes to "ab-
sorb' it as Manchuria was absorbed, it
will be interesting to see what is the atti-
tude of the other powers
