DEFER RULING
|. IN KAUFMAN
TRIAL APPEAL
Fourteen Jurists to Digest
Briefs During Sum-
mer Months

TRENTON, n. j.. June 21.--
(UP). Sitting behind locked doors
for nearly five hours, ID black
robed jurists of the court of err
rors and appeals withheld decision
last night on Bruno Richard
Hauptmann's appeal for a new
trial.
The convicted murderer of the
Lindbergh baby brooded in his
death house cell while his counsel
argued that he was unfairly tried
by his Pennington jury, that the
shocking abduction was an INSIDE
Job" and that the state abruptly
changed it's theory Of the crime
during the course of the sensa-
tional trial.
! eThe high court will digest the
opposing briefs during tide sum-
mer and reconvene either late IN
September or early in October.
Defense arguments to save the
taciturn German carpenter from
the electric chair were heard dur
ing the morning session of the
closed hearing.
Attornev-General David Wilentz,
who conducted Hauptmann's pros
ecution. responded bitingly to the
defense charges that he injected
personal opinion in his summation
and violated the defendants con-
stitutional rights.
az said then that he was Public
Enemy No. 1 of the world Will
entz told the court vehemently,
"and | say it again now, for all
the world to know. He was an
alien who sneaked into this coun-
trv and now he wants to invoke
the Constitution of the United
States"
Frederick A. Pope of defense
counsel asserted all the evidence
showed the Lindbergh nursery
window had never been opened on
the night of the kidnapping. He
said Hauptmann could not have
climbed into the window.
"No wonder" commented Pope,
"the First Lady of the Land said,
& should hate to think what would
happen to an innocent man charg-
ed with the kidnapping of the Lind
bergh child"
(Mrs. Roosevelt commented on
the case at a press conference
shortly after the verdict was rem
dered).

Digging through the f1leS, Claude
M. Baker, first vice president Of
the organization with headquarters
here, today found that the then
president, D. R. Streeter, in an ad
dress before the Detroit convention
June 8, 1878, said: "Of late there
has been a great hue and cry raised
as to the organization of Commu-
niStS."
Of this scare he stated: II do
not believe there are 1000 bona fide
Communists born on this side of
the ocean within the borders of the
countries you represent. believe
that most of the excitement re-
garding Communism which at pres
ent prevails is caused by the bluster
and windy words of few worthless
vagabondS.
L believe the aristocratic classes
are not at all to be considered as
possessing a monopoly of honor
patriotism and love of order. The
working men desire no division of
property and overthrow of the So
cial structure" Mr.. Streeter thef
said.
What working men desire is
that they shall have the same rights
to form associations for the protec-
ton and advancement of their in
terests that business men Of all
professions have; that when wealthy
men combine and laws are made
for their protection enactments
should not be passed terming the
association Of poorer men con-
spiracy'!
They desire also an opportunity
to earn honestly enough pay to
enable them to put something by
for sickness or old age, to keep
their families decently and to edu-
cate them" he continued.
And this they propose to &C
complish without interfering with
the rights of others. in a perfectly
legitimate manner, through general
organization.
The bona f1de working man loves
his country and its institutions as
well, if not better, than the aristo-
crat, and will be the last one to
desire that anarchy and bloodshed
NAV prevail"

GUYMON, Okla, June Fields
and pastures of green, and occa-
sional reviving stands of wheat.
meet the eye today in the dust
bowl country where two months
ago dust storms swept away all
growth and cast pail that hid the
sun.
Rain made the change.
The Oklahoma Panhandle and
the dust beset wind-eroded areas
of Texas and Kansas adjoining it,
are coming back. The country west
of Guymon. and few counties in
Northeastern New Mexico and
Southeastern Colorado, could still
use a heavy rain.
Elsewhere. only occasion showers
will be needed to assure fall crops.
Families that moved from the Pam
handle in the dark days of March
and April are Fastening back to
plant. Farmers are at work with
listers and tractors, blowing deep to
nolQ The moisture.
S.26 Inches of Rain
Since early May. Guymon and
the central Panhandle have received
1926 iches of rain. Not all the dust
bowl has received as much, but the
territory is being transformed.
In April, only infrequently did
travellers find a field where short
wheat sprouts had not been
drowned. The parched earth was
covered with a silt that joined the
static electricity created by the
wind to destroy all vegetation.
The rains changed this and now
fields and pastures are making
marvellous growth.
Dust clouds still drift in at times,
bringing grim encores of the per-
formances that made breathing
difficult, Sifted dust into homes and
led to predictions the country would
have to be abandoned.
Farmers PlOw Deep
Farmers have adopted new meth
DDS. They have learned that deep
blowing and standing vegetation
will hold the moisture and produc-
tivitv in the soil and they have
taken heart. Engineers have laid
out winding lines for them to fol-
low in blowing, so that burrows run
along a level and will hold rainfall.
In Texas County alone 164,325
acres have been surveyed for con-
tour blowing, and 5000 acres for
terracing.
Two inches of rain made the hOri-
ION in the country green within
week. Another inch or two will
make row crops and forage that will
support the farmers.
