ODDS obviously
AGAINST HAUPTMANN
Bv HARRY FERGUSON

Copyright 1885 By u. p.

BENNINGTON, N. J., Feb. IL.
(UP).-There will be a clamor
of bells in the white tower Of
Hunterdon county courthouse
some time this week announcing
again that a Jersey Jury is ready
to say whether a prisoner at the
bar shall live or die.
Before another Sabbath all the
world will know what only Bruno
Richard Hauptmann knows now
whether he is guilty of the Lind
bergh crime or whether he has
been falsely accused of ate 10th
century's worst outrage" ;,
Hauptmann, sitting in his cell
across the bridge of signs from
the courthouse, will be able to
hear the bells, Just as he heard
the pealing and tolling yesterday
from the belfry of the Methodist
church on Main street.
He goes into these closing hours
of his fight for the right to live
with the odds stacked ominously
against him. His lawyers are en-
gagged in another one Of those
squabbles that have made the de-
tense a house divided against it's
slf throughout this trial.
Egbert Rosecrans and Frederick
A. Pope of defense counsel
thought Lloyd Fisher, a lawyer
who grew to manhood in Flem-
ington and knows every quirk
and prejudice in the minds of
Hunterdon county folk, should
have delivered part of the sum-
nation in Hauptmann's behalf.
Edward j. Reilly, chief counsel,
insists he is going to do it all,
confident that he can patch up
any gaps in the defense case and
win an acquittal.
In that atmosphere of uncer-
tainty and antagonism, Reilly will
get to his feet today to talk for
the rest of the day. With elo-
auences and with logic he is at
tempting to brush aside the testl-
mony Of the SO witnesses that
the state brought to the stand.
Hauptmann must have sensed
this dissension among the men In
whose hands he has placed his
life, for he made the unusual re-
quest that he be allowed to ad-
dress the jury in his own behalf.
New Jersey law forbids it. He
shares the opinion that Fisher,
the one lawyer who has been to
visit him in the jair virtually
every day since the trial started,
should participate in the closing
argument.
In contrast to this division of
opinion at the defense table, the
states attorneys gathered in
Trenton last night, in complete
harmony, and blue-printed their
strategy for the last two days of
the trial. 1t calls for the case
to 20 to the jury late Tuesday
Or early Wednesday.

SEEKS NOW TO
REGAIN BRIDE
But Mrs. Scarlet Ready
to Divorce Former
Family Chauffeur

WASHINGTON, Feb. II, (UP).
A puzzled ex-chauffeur who mar
ried his boss daughter last night
tried to win back his bride OF
two weeks who promised to stand
by and then left him with a note
saying she couldn't go on"
George S. Scarlet, 3rd, learn
ed through his wife's attorney
that the former Miss Jane Cooke,
prominent Washington debutante,
was ready to file suit for di-
vorce on grounds that the former
family chauffeur could not sup
port her. He said he wanted to
talk with his wife in an attempt
to settle their difficulties.
Scarlet, college football play,
err, eloped with Jane last month
Mrs. Cooke filed. larceny charges
against him, saying he took
$4,000 worth of iewelry when he
took her daughter. Scarlet said
the jewelry belonged to his wife
and her sister who accompanied
the honeymooners.
Scarlet and his wife were
brought back by a Savannah,
Ca, police officer so that the ex-
chauffeur could be tried on the
larceny charge. At the railroad
station here, Mrs. Scarlet made
a pledge Of loyalty. In court,
both Miss Cooke and her father
refused to testify and the judge
dismissed the case. Scarlet,
freed, returned to his quarters to
find his wife gone. She left a
note and her wedding ring.

ROME, Feb. 11.-(UP).-A
call to arms went out last night
to approximately $4,000 young
men throughout Italy, comprising
three classes called to the colors
because of the renewed threat of
war with Abyssinia.
The mobilization order, affect
ing thousands of youth in all
walks of life in one of the great
est war preparation moves since
the world conflict ended, went
only to mechanical units.
1t followed announcement that
more Italian troops had been
killed and wounded in fighting
January 20 with Ethiopian forces
near Ualual, on the Abyssinian-
Italian Somalilant frontier, in
northern Africa. Five dead were
listed among the native troops
fighting under the Italian flag, an
incident" which has brought the
smouldering conflict to a danger
Gus crisis which Premier Bento
Mussolini has met with drastic &C.
ton.
The government Immediately
filed a sharp protest with Abys-
sinia.
Upwards of 100 lives have been
lost, most of them natives fighting
under Italian colors in the Soma
liland army.
Abyssinia has appealed to the
League of Nations, asking the
council to arbitrate the dispute,
but Italy refused, insisting that
the treaty with Abyssinia called
for direct negotiations between
the two nations.
Abyssinia, through the league
insisted that Italian planes bonn
barded not only Abyssinian Dor
der patrols, without cause, but
also non-combatant civil popula-
tions in frontier villages.
Italy reported that Abyssinlan
troops had gone out of their way
to attack peaceful Somali out
posts, and demanded reparations.
The Abyssinian position was
complicated further by a border
raid by desert tribesmen on a
French outpost on the French
somal-Abyssinian frontier.
