COOPERATION AIM
IN ELECTR|FY
Acting Director Cooke of
New Farm Agency Ex-
plains Plans.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Morris L. Cooke, acting director of
the new Rural Electriflcation Admin
istration today said cooperation with
private utilities-provided they estab-
lished low rates-would be the aim of
the new agency.
The Philadelphia consulting engi-
reer, drafted by the President, said
four general plans had been suggested
to bring electricity to the 100000
farm homes now lacking connections
with a generating plant.
Complete Service Aim.
The whole program, he said, will
aim at providing complete necessary
electric service and appliances for
"dirt farmers"
Asked at his firstspress conference
how individual farmers should apply.
Cooke suggested formation of local
groups for surveys as the first step.
The four plans which Cooke said
probably would be combined are:
l. Government loans from part
of the S4,0O0,0O0,000 work-relief fund
to private utilities for extension of
their present facilities into rural
areas.
2. Government loans exclusively to
State and public agencies.
g. Government loans only to CO.
operative rural organizations.
4. Formation of a Delaware corpora
ton, similar to the Electric Home
the Tennessee Valley, to carry out all
rural electrification plans.
Wiring and Appliances.
Cooke indicated that present plans
would include cost of wiring farm
home and all necessary appliances as
well as building the power lines to the
farm.
He was indefinite on how this was
to be done, but mentioned loans
through the Reconstruction Finance
Corp. and possible national eXpan-
sion of the Home and Farm Authority,
created to promote sale of electric ap-
pliances in the Tennessee Valley.
The acting director said that pri-
vate utilities now controlling 95 per
cent of the power industry had offered
to cooperate with the new Govern
ment agency, and added that 5000
projects already had been prepared
by engineers for the private utilities.

SEVENTEEN.YEAR-OLD
BOY AS AUTO ROBBER

A seventeen-year-old boy is held in
$35, 900 bail awaiting action of Bal
timore Grand Jury in connection with
a number of recent taxicab robberies
at isolated spots along the Old Pim-
leo road, near Mt. Washington. The

McNeal told Magistrate William ].
Stocksdale in the Northern Police Sta
ton that he picked up Mattingly down

ed on the front seat and asked to
be taken to South Bend road and Rog-
ers avenue. Suddenly the driver felt
a pistol in his ribs; Mattingly ordered
him to hand over his money. McNeal
gave him $515 and was then ordered
out of the cab. Just then police
car approached, and McNeal Crap
pled with the robber. With the as
sistance of police Mattingly was sub
dued and taken to the Northern police

MARYLAND'S STRAWBERRY
CROP LESS THAN IN 1894

Maryland's strawberry crop, which
is conferred at Marion and Pittsville,
is expected to yield more than tie
five year average though less than
last year according to a forecast by
J. A. Ewing, agricultural statistician
of the Maryland Crop Reporting Ser
vice at College Park.
High Prices on the New York mar
ket attracted such volume during the
last three days that prices were forced
abruptly downward last Saturday.
At Pittsville and Marion Blake
mores sold for 1925 to $3.75 on the
auction block, drop of nearly $500
a crate from the midweek price level.
The other early varieties were selling
for less.
Ewing established this seasons crop
will reach 14,204,0O0 quarts in the
Eastern Shore territory. This COM
pares with Is, $4,000 quarts harvested
last year. The five-year average from
1929 to 1888 approximated 1885,
600 quarts.
Strawberry acreage to be picked,
Ewings report said, is expected to be
slightly less than that of 1884. The
indicated yield per acre, he said is
2040 quarts-lighter than last years
yield, but heavier than average.
Strawberry production for the in
termediate states area was set at 81
$4,000 crates of "a quarts each
nearly one-fifth less than the total for
1884, the survey indicated.
The drop in acreage, it was said,
was chiefly a result of serious losses
by the drought which visited some Sec
tons last fall.

Possibility that eastern hay mar

Due to rain and the resultant
green feed available on the coast
the market there for valley hay is
weak, but a demand for hay will
come from eastern markets. Cam

HANDWRITING
AGAIN CALLED
HAUP PTMANN' )
Seventh Prosecution Expert
Asserts Accused Wrote All
Ransom Notes

FLEMINGTON, N. j., Jan. Is.
U.P)-Albert D. Osborn, son of a
previous witness, today was the
seventh government expert to
charge the writing of the Lindbergh
ransom notes against Bruno Rich
ard Hauptmann, accrEed as the
murderer of Charles A. Lindbergh,
Jr.
Osborn, a 40-year- replica of
his distinguished father, added the
weight of his handwriting knowl-
edge to six previous experts, and
declared, at the start of his testi-
mony, his conviction that the hand
that wrote the ransom notes also
wrote Hauptmann IS application for
an automobile license and the Gre
quest" writing, done after his ar
rest.
Like the previous witness, the
younger Osborn testified to his be-
lief that the ransom notes were in
disguised handwriting, and that the
specimens of the prisoner hand
writing taken after his arrest were
also in part disguised.
Osborn followed the outlines of
his six predecessors in explaining
his reasons for condemning the
Bronx carpenter.
Previously today, Harry E. Cassi-
dy, possessor of an engaging south
ern drawl and a sense of humor,
had enlivened the normally dull
scientific testimony by wise-crack-
ing' at the examining attorneys.
But he had stuck to his PROPOSE
ton, and refused to waver under
the cross-examination of Frederick
A. Pope, associate defense counsel.
Wilmer Souder, of the United
States Bureau of Standards, con-
sidered one of the government IS
greatest investigators of handwrit-
ings and documents, had followed
Cassidy, and delivered a scholarly
pronouncement regarding his opin-
ion that Hauptmann tried to dis
guise his handwriting when he
composed the ransom demands.
Osborn was still on the stand
when court recessed, at 1925 p. m,
and the court room throng was
happy in anticipation that the ted
'ious handwriting testimony-whlch
is SO vital to the state IS case-was
drawing to a close.

COURT DROPS
CASE AGAINST
SHERIFF WARE

On hearing the evidence in the
case, Judge Hollzer dismissed an
action brought against r. w. Ware,
sheriff coroner and j. R. Lester,
deputy state labor commissioner by
E. M. Piper in federal court, San
Diego, yesterday.
Piper had named the two county
officials in his complaint in which
he asked permanent injunction
against any interference with car
avans of used cars passing through
the valley enroute to Los Angeles
or San Diego.
Elmer Heald, district attorney,
represented the two officials in the
matter. He contended that Ware
was not sheriff during the time
covered in the complaint and that
the acts complained of had occur
red prior to the time he took office.
The court agreed with this and dis
missed the action as to Ware.
An effort was then made by
Piper S attorneys to make a case
against Lester but were unable to
prove that any threats had been
made by him against the caravan.
1t was shown that the drivers of
these cars had stopped in Ell Cen
tro and refused to go on any fur
ther without their wages.
The court dissolved the restrain
ing order and denied the petition
for an injunction against Lester.

WASHINGTON, jan 16.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt will send his far
reaching social security program to
congress tomorrow.
His plan to provide security of the
home and employment, health and
old-age protection is the keystone
of his long-range planned program
for more abundant life." admin
istration leaders said.
In response to the Presidents de-
sire congressional leaders planned
speedy consideration of the pro-
gram, which is expected to provide
unemployment insurance, old-age
pensions. child welfare, maternity
care, medical services for the poor
and related social services.
The program would launch the
federal government and cooperating
states upon a broad plan of social
rehabilitation to affect virtually ev-
cry man, woman and child in the
United States.
Inc program, Wnen e1IecClVe,
would provide, its sponsors believe,
bulwark against future depres-
sions. For the wage Garner it would
provide an income in case of un-
employment. For those over IS years
of age it would give a monthly in

President Completes Plans For Unemployment In
surance, Old Age Pensions And Other
Relief Measures

recommend a graduated payroll tax
to be bore jointly by workers and
employers, to build up unemploy-
ment reserves. The plan, it was un-
derstood, calls for a one per cent
payroll tax, to become effective n
a few months. AS business improves
the tax would gradually be in
creased to three or four per cent.
A one per cent initial tax on in
dustrial payrolls, congressional
leaders estimated, would raise $780,
100000 annually. However, in states
with unemployment insurance sys-
TENS deductions could be made by
industries contributing to the state
system.
Legislative action on the Presi-
dents program was expected to
head off consideration of other So
cial insurance plans, including the
Townsend $200-a-month old-age
pension proposal. Thousands of pc
titions and individual letters sup
porting the Townsend plan are re-
ceived daily by congressman.

The convicts and their free men"
civilian prisoners were the object
of the greatest manhunt staged in
California in years. All police fa-
cilities in the state were drawn in
by teletype.
Two hours after the escape, the
car was reported speeding through
Ignacio, about 40 miles north of the
prison.
The Ignacio report came into the
United Press San Francisco office
at 2:05 p. m The informant said
three police cars and motorcycles"
were in pursuit.
The convict car also was seen pre-
viously when it rammed car driv-
en- by Al O'Connon at Green Rae
Junction.
Army airplanes were concentrate
ing at Hamilton Field, in Marin
county, to take part in the chase.
The PRISON received report the
prisoners were around Black Point.
which is near Ignacio. This infor-
nation apparently checked with
that received by the United Press.
Mark Noon, the prison board Sec
retary, was thrown out of the car
at the Black Point bridge in an eff
fort to halt the fire of pursuing
state patrol car.
Noon telephoned in to the prison.
"The warden is still in the car"
he was said to have reported. so
are the members of the prison
board"
The hostages. according to Noon.
were forced to exchange clothes with
the convicts. The convicts numbered
five, Noon said.
Moons version was somewhat diff
ferent than the one at the prison,
where confusion was great. 1t was
said there that the warden was
found in the prison yard near his
house.
The convicts and posse exchanged
shots after throwing out Noon, he
said.
"T'hey threw me out, then doubled
back and shot their way past the
patrol car" Noon reported.
Noon said the captives were forced
to lie in the tonneau with the con-
victs on the seats.
The break occurred at p. m.
according to the prison.
Even after Moons report, the pri-
son told the United Press that War
den Holohan was in his home with
in the prison in "a serious condi-
tion."
