The Administrators plan for
American adherence to the League
Court should be modified to pro-
tect the United States against de-
parture from it's traditional policy
against entangling alliances. Sen
ator Vandenberg (RO of Michi-
gan declared in the Senate this
afternoon in proposing a reserva.
ton to the resolution of adher-
ence. ..
Senator Vandenberg offered the
same reservation that was written
into the first Court protocol when
the Senate ratified it in 1926. It
was included again by the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee in
1892 but was abandoned this year
at President Roosevelt'S request.
Refusal of the Administration to
accept the reservation, Senator
Vandenberg said, invites the sus-
picion that the pending protocol
endangers American freedom.
Senator Amazed
Senator Vandenberg said he
offered the reservation ito elimi-
nate any lingering fears that the
United States sacrifices its self
determination respecting its ira
ditional policies to stay out Of
old-world politics and their inter
nal affairs" He added:

position to it. Those who Op-
pose it render grave disser-
vice to the World Court
cause. Furthermore, they in
vite the suspicion that the
pending protocols in some way
contradict continued American
freedom.
This precise language was
unanimously approved by the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee ON June /, 1882, when
no less a friend of the court
than the late Senator Thomas
J. Walsh was in charge of the
movement. 1t was indOrsed by
the Democratic national con-
ventiOn in Chicago rs days
later.

COURTROOM, PENNINGTON, N. j.. Jan.
18. (IN.S.)-Mrs Anna Hauptmann, wife of
the man on trial for the murder of the Lind
bergh baby, created sensation in the court

lying"
The courtroom was thrown into an uproar
Mrs. Hauptmann attired in green, was sitting few
feet from her husband Bruno Richard Hauptmann who
similar sensation late yesterday when he shouted
at Federal Agent Tommy ssk then on the stand that
he was lying .~-.''
Many the spectators leaped to their feet Mrs Haup
shouted out at the witness As she hurled the lie at
Mrs Aschenback Mrs Haupmann looked if she were about
to spring from her chair

his chair The guards Immediately became alert

Hauptmann sitting and said something to her in low
tone.
Justice Thomas W. Trenchard raped for order
The Washington times., 1935-01-18

Justice Trenchard, obviously
annoyed at this second out
break, forced Mrs. Hauptmann
to apologize.
The Judge asked her to rise to
her feet. He said:
do you realize the imprOpri-
ETY. Of your actions"
Mrs. Hauptmann seemed con-
fused. Her face was blanched and
she was trembling. She said:
II am sorry, I am sorry. But
sometimes just can't help
The judge interrupted her:
"Never mind. This simply
must not happen again"
When Mrs. Hauptmann nodded
her head, the justice said:
II think we need some such
assurance from the defendant
as well.'

Odd YOU see Bruno Richard
Hauptmann at that time? Ayes.
Q.-When? A.-About one or
two days after the kidnapping.
At this point, Mrs. Hauptmann
cried, from her seat near the side
of the defense counsel table:
you are lying, you are lying"
For q moment it seemed as if
Mrs. Hauptmann would spring
from her chair. Then she sud-
denly went limp and smiled sheep
ishly.
The woman witness apparently
had been depended upon as an
alibi witness for Hauptmann.

Marcot Settled
Case For $4,000

NJ. Marcot, local merchant and
plaintiff in damage action against
l.. G. Price growing out of an au-
tomobile accident, and which was
settled out of court and dismissed
when called for trial yesterday, as
reported in last night S Press, OBJ
jected to the wording of the re-
port which ne claims inferred that
he had obtained the amount for
which he sued-$22,50 The Press
does not agree that there was any
such inference.
The Press account of the case
listed the sub-totals of the amount
asked for by Marcot. these being
taken from the official records in
the county clerk IS office. These
records do not show the amount
agreed upon as settlement, and The
Press, respecting the apparent wish
of plaintiff and defendant to keep
the information confidential, as is
the custom in out-of~court settle
mentS, made no effort to learn the
amount of settlement, believing this
to be the personal business of the
principals and their attorneys, and
of interest only to them.
Marcot, in objecting to last
nights articles for reasons of his
own, stated the amount agreed up
on was $4,000.

With his low-wing. silver plane
skimming above the clouds al d
record breaking pace, Vance Breese,
Gilmore test pilot, established a
new official airplane speed mark be-
tween San Francisco and Los An
geles May 6. when he took off from
Mills Field in the Bay City and
landed at the United Airport in
Southern California 81 minutes later.
Official time for the flight was
reported by technical observers OF
the National Aeronautical asSocia-
ton.
Despite the amazing speed attain
ed. the pilot insisted his trim ship,
which has a wing spread OF only 25
feet, is practical and not trick
racing plane. In confirmation OF
this he pointed out that the 9
cylinder Whitney motor is
strictly a commercial Job" and not
the largest or most powerful racing
motor available.
BreeSe explained to officials OF the
Gilmore Oil company upon com
pletion of the flight that although
the motor is credited with only 400
horsepower, the new type aviation
gasoline and Lion Head motor oil he
used made possible a cooler engine
which permitted the super-charger
tc develop greater power.
Another unusual feature Of the
plane is that its designer, Keith
Rider, included flaps or air-brakes
on the wings OF the plane which
permits landing at speeds less than
70 miles an hour.
Breese is known as one of the
nations foremost test pilots. He
began his flying career in 1917 while
a student at Broadway high school
in Seattle. In order to obtain fur
ther technical knowledge he work
ed for the Boeing Airplane COM
pany for a brief period and then
transformed" throughout the
country with an aerial circus. In
1922 he organized his own airplane
factory in San Francisco. 1t was
there that Breese distinguished
himself as an exceptional pilot when
he landed a plane and five pas
sengers after the motor had fallen

LOS ANGELES, May 7 U.H-En-
largemetn OF the county board Of
supervisors TO Is members and
transfer of its administration duties
10 a county manager was recon-
menedd today by the committee on
governmental Simplification.
In voluminous report that re-
uuired two years to complete, the

OF county government obsolete and
inefficient and one requiring
division of representative and ad-
ministrative functions.
Under the proposed Setup, the
board would be composed OF three
supervisors from each OF the five
present districts or, as an alterna-
tive. present districts would be split
up into Is.
The county manager, under the
pima, would have complete charge
OF the administration of county de-
paruments. He would be appointed
by the supervisors to serve or retire
at their will.
The committee recommended that
the plan be submitted to voters as
charter amendment.
