Gasoline Prices
NOsedive Again
AS Oil Dropping

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 25. UR)-
Gasoline prices took another nose
dive today, foreshadowing a possible
new reduction in the price of crude
oil.
Major companies led the way in
the new gasoline price slashes, cut
ting another cent off the already
low schedule. Prices posted by the
majors ranged from liz to 1419
cents a gallon, scale still above
the 10 cents low prevailing at
many independent stations.
T hi reduction was ordered
throughout Southern California.
Predictions were freely made that
crude, already lowered from 81 to
so cents a barrel, might drop to as
low as 25 cents. Production was
reported completely out of bounds
with efforts for curtailment stale
mated. Officials blamed an un-
named number of recalcitrant pro-
ducers for collapse of negotiations
to effect a voluntary curtailment
agreement.

New Deal Boosts Legal

BY PAUL MALLON.

One business the New Deal has in
advertently restored to prosperity IS
the legal business. You could not
drop a writ of habeas corpus out Of
any downtown building here these
days without hitting one or more law
yers on the head. The town is swarm
ing with two classes Of them, one in
side the New Deal, trying to legalize
it. and the other outside, trying to
illegalize it.
No one, not even the Justice Depart
ment, has charted the boom in the
legal industry. or has any definite
idea Of the scope of it.
Without saying anything, Attorney
General Cummings began to look into
the problem recently when he saw
cases mounting on Federal Court
dockets faster than prohibition cases
ever did. The unpublished result Of
his inquiry showed that 27,804 civil
and criminal cases involving the vari-
Gus New Deal agencies IN. R. A..
A. A. A., P. w. A., etc. were pending
at the end of December.

POLICE ASSAULT
CASE IS RESUMED
Defense Testimony for
Shotzberger and Vessels
to Be Continued.

Continuation of defense testimony
is scheduled upon resumption of the
trial in the assault case against two
Washington patrolmen in Police Court
this afternoon. Court was adjourned
yesterday afternoon by Judge John P.
Mcmahon after the first defense wit
ness, Ernest S. Atchison, 53l1 Nine
tenth street, had testified that Har-
rison M. Fuller Of BAL Ingraham street,
struck the first blow in his fight with
Officers John I. Shotzberger and
Ernest T. Vessels.
The officers had gone to the Fuller
home to serve q traffic warrant on
Allen M. Fuller, but took Harrison
Fuller TO headquarters instead. The
latter subsequently filed the assault
charges against the two patrolmen and
they have been suspended pending
their trial.
Struck Policeman on Head.
Atchison testified yesterday that he
had just come out of the back Of his
house when he saw Shotzberger ap-
proach Harrison M. Fuller in the alley
and that Fuller struck the policeman
on the side Of the head, knocking of
his hat. After the policeman and
Fuller had made futile passes at each
other, Fuller ran and said, IF you have
warrant for me try and catch me II
you can" Atchison told the court.
The testimony showed that the two
policemen had gone to the Fuller
home last Wednesday to arrest Allen
| M. Fuller on an old parking warrant
and were watching both the front and
back Of the house when Harrison M
Fuller started out through the alley
and was accosted by Shotzberger.
Mrs. Myrtis M. Fuller, mother Of the
two boys. testified she saw Shotzbergel
| strike Harrison and screamed for Allen
to come to the window. The latter
testified that his mother would not let
him 60 out. so he called the station
| house to report the matter and then
went there to put up collateral after
his brother had disappeared.
Says Officers Beat Him.
Harrison M. Fuller said he went to q
store at SeVenCl ana kennedy SLreeLS,
where he was grabbed by the two OFF,
GERS and beaten by Vessels while
Shotzberger struck him and knocked
him down. He lost consciousness while
at the patrol box, he said, his last
recollection being that one or both
policemen were on him with their
knees.
During his direct examination he
said he told Shotzberger that the latter
had no warrant for him and the po-
liceman replied that he would at least
lock him up for resisting arrest. He
admitted that after the cop grabbed
me called him a yellow dog"
The defense, under the direction of
Attorney James A. O'Shea, forced ad-
missions from both of the brothers
that they had been arrested upon nu-
merous occasions for traffic violations.
Harrison M. Fuller admitted that his
permit was revoked in 1891 and he
was placed on probation for six months
following o conviction on second
onense speeding.

StatIer Heiress.
BULLETIN.

PINEHURST, N. c., February %
R.-An autopsy on the body of
Mrs. H. Bradley Davidson, jr., E.
M. Statler heiress. who died here
yesterday morning under mysteri-
GUS circumstances, was begun here
this afternoon at the behest of
attorneys representing the hotel
magnate's estate.
BY the Associated Press.
PINEHURST, N. c., February 20.
Acting Coroner Hugh Kelly today
postponed until this afternoon re-
sumption Of the inquest into the
mysterious death here of Mrs. H.
Bradley Davidson, jr., talented young
heiress of E. M. Statler of hotel fame.
The inquest, begun yesterday, was
adjourned until this morning at the
request Of Mrs. Statler, the girls
foster mother, who started for Pine
hurst on receipt Of news of the death.
A train delay caused the additional
postponement.
Slumped under the steering wheel
of her car, the 22-year old bride of
less than two months was found I'M
conscious by a servant at the David
son Winter home when he opened
the door Of the family garage yester-
day morning.
Fails to Revive
Mrs. Davidson. who was graduated
from Radcliffe College at the age of
20 never regained consciousness.
The coroner's jury was told by DIR.
M. w. Mari. the attending physician,
carbon monoxide was the immediate
cause Of death.
There is an intimation from an
authoritative source that the jury
was not satisfied" as to the cause
Of death and that an autopsy may
be ordered.
Davidson, testifying at the inquest,
said he and his wife occupied separate
rooms. He said she wore sport clothes
when found by servants and that she
was in the habit Of going for early
morning drives when she was unable
to sleep.
Other evidence at the inquest was to
the effect that the motors switch was
of when the body was found. but that
the motor had been choked.
The jury considered the possibility
that in some unexplained manner the
heiress met an accidental death. but
that suficient evidence had not been
gathered.
Made Swimming Team.

Mrs. Davidson, one of several children
adopted by Statler. made the United
States Olympic swimming team, but
soon afterward injured her spine while
diving.
She had been In poor health ever
since, friends said, although she con-
tinued to lead a moderately active life.
A recent automobile mishap in South
Carolina tended to aggravate her con-
dition, 1t was said.

wilson and her husband, together with
their house guests, Mr.. and Mrs.
