MYSTERY HIDES
MAL0Y KILLERS
Slain Union Head Had
Many Enemies, Police
Learn During Probe.
By United Press

By OHtted Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-Police made
no apparent progress today in a
quest for gunner who revived the
butchery methods of the old gang
days to kill Thomas, E. Malloy
wealthy labor leader, in the sight of
many motorists before the World
Fair grounds.
Principal difficulty of the investi-
gators was that many people had
reason to narbor grudges against
the car of motion picture operators
and to wish him out of their way.
He was under Indictment for in
come tax evasion and probably
would have been called upon in his
defense to implicate several asso-
ciates in off color financial dealings.
States attorneys charged that the
union business manager sold out"
on more than one occasion in dis
putes between his union and en-
ployers, to his personal financial
gain.
Police sought Edward Red)

union, and Ralph OHara, organizer
for Maloy's union. O'Hara once was
Maloy's closest friend, but was re-
ported lately to have disagreed with
him. O'Hara said over the tele-
phone that he might" surrender to-
day. He denied he and his asso-
ciate were unfriendly.
Maloy vas killed while driving
from his South Side home to his
Loop office with a friend, DR.. En-
NETT Quinn, dentist who also is a
motion picture operator. The killers,
apparently three of them, fired from
passing motor car through the
windows of Maloy'S sedan.
The union chief was killed almost
instantly, DR.. Quinn, although
wounded slightly, stopped the big
car as it careened across the drive.

Mr.. Belgrano, as California
banker, is associated with the Will
liam Randolph Heart interests, &C
cording to Mr.. Spivak.
The speaker pointed out that the
Hearst papers anti-red campaign
and the legion nti-Communist drive
began at the same time.
The leader of the Fascist army
must be a man who believes sin
cerely in it's aims and who is a tool
in the hands of the bankers" Mr..
Spivak said.
On that ground, he discarded
Huey Long as Fascist menace,
saying that the Kingfsh was a
mountebank and not sincere in any
thing but his own interests.
Mr. Spivak traced the financial in
terests of all leaders Of the Fascist
movement, claiming that they led
directly to J. P. Morgan. he said

American Federation of Labor vice
president, is acting director; the
Committee of the Nation, the Amer
lean Liberty League and the Amer
lean Legion. Mr.. Spivak said that
all in the second group, with the
exception Of the legion, were or
ganized to take issue on the mon
ettary issues such as initiation and
deflation.
Mr.. Spivak claimed that the
money given the American Legion
for its organization was donated by
a Wall Street broker and that the
legion has been prominent in anti
labor activities. He said that a
clique has controlled the legion I'M
til the last convention, but at that
time it was overthrown and Frank
N. Belgrano Jr. was named COM
mander.

HOUSE DELAYS
Vote ON Child
LABOR REPORT
Postponement BareS Lack
of Unity in Ranks of
Democrats.

Their ranks lacking unity in sup
port of the Federal Child Labor
Amendment, Democratic leaders in
the House of Representatives today
postponed a test vote on the states
ratification of the amendment until
Ills Friday.
Fate of the amendment was to
have been determined at 1870 to-
day when the House was to have
voted on the minority report of the
labor committee. Opposition to
binding members of the Democratic
party to support the amendment
developed at a party caucus OF
House members late yesterday.
Decision to postpone action on
the committee report until Friday
came after much pickering from the
floor. Republican floor leaders pre-
sented several resolutions for post
ponement until Thursday at 11:30;
until Thursday at 11:15 and until
other hours.

cratic Representative in the Clay
pool late yesterday Rep. Morris H
Coers Cd, Indianapolis) was re-
ported to have attempted to make
the amendment matter of caucus
action. This, it was said, drew a
bitter attack from Rep. j. Napier
Dyer Cd, Vincennes).
Geckler Backs Reform
Meanwhile friends of ratification
learned that Marion County Juvenile
Judge John F. Geckler, whose court
is one of the largest in the country
dealing with child problems, had
issued an appeal for approval OF
the amendment which is a Demo-
cratic program measure Endorsed by
President Roosevelt and Gov. Paul
" McNutt.
In a telegram to The Indianapolis
Times, Judge Geckler made an APP
peal to the Marion County delega-
ton to support the amendment.
II respectfully and hopefully urge
the members of the Marion County
delegation to support the pending
Child Labor Amendment to the
Constitution of the United States,
Judge Geckler said. mot only will
this amendment give the United
States government the power to
protect the children Of this country
but it is in step with the progressive
democratic spirit of the times"
Farm Argument Raped
Ralph A. Scott, Greenfield, last
night opposed the amendment in
an address before the Irvington Re-
publican Club, saying it would mean
complete RECOMMENDATION of the
people.
The amendment has been bitterly
attacked BIZ out-of state industrial
interests which have been response
BILE for the circulation of reports
that farm children would be pre-
vented from doing ordinary chores
if the amendment is adopted.
Advocates of the plan, including
its sponsors, organized labor, dis
pute this Interpretation and claim
that the courts have indicated the
labor of children would be prohi-
bited only in gainful employment in
industry.
In addition to organized labor, the
amendment is supported by the
American Legion, the League OF
Women Voters and more than %
other national organizations.

It was during the examination OF
Mrs. Bertha Hoff, a Bayside house
wife, that Mr.. Reilly made his state
ment to the court.
Mrs. Hoff had testified that Isidor
Fisch had brought two suitcaSeS to
her home and wanted to leave them
there before he departed for Europe.
The defense inference was that
Fisch was trying to dispose Of the
ransom money by leaving it with
friends.
Atty. Gen. David T. Wilentz OBJ
jected that Mrs. Hoff's testimony
was incompetent and immaterial,
and his objection was sustained, but
not before Mr.. Reilly announced his
intention to prove that "Isidor Fisch
was the man who jumped over the
cemetery wall and received the ram
som money"
Witness Is Withdrawn
Mr.. Reilly withdrew his witness
after making no Roadway on his
promise, and then called Special
Agent John E. Seykora, of the
Bureau of Investigation, Department
of Justice, through whom he tried
to show that DR.. John F. Condor
had been examined by alienistS, and
that "a report on his mental condi-
ton is on file"
Mr.. Seykora insisted he had no
such report and that the man
known as "Jafsie" had not been ex-
amined by any men of his depart
ment.
Previously, Mrs. Maria Muller
and Mrs. Louisa Wollenburg, ma
irons in the Hauptmann's little
group in the Bronx, testified to
being present at gatherings on Nov.
&c, 1888, at a time when the Bronx
carpenter is accused of passing a
ransom note in Greenwich Village.
Hauptmann, they said, was at home
throughout the evening.
The days comedy relief was pro-
vided by Philip Moses, one-time
Bronx taXidriver( who amused the
trial fans by initiating viii Rogers,
after having told a vague story of
seeing three men ''in a huddle" at
st. Raymond'S Cemetery on the day
the ransom money was passed.
Federal Agent Scored
In his examination of Agent Sey-
kora, Mr.. Reilly did his best to pic
ture DR.. Condor as eccentric" and
questioned the witness severely on
his departments failure to investi-
gate the doctor thoroughly"
Hauptmanns defense may be
completed today or, at the latest,
tomorrow. This would permit the
jury receiving the case by Satur-
day
Mr.. Reilly said he had "at least
30 more witnesses" enough to oc-
cupy the courts time until Satur-
day, but even his associates of the
defense said privately this was ex-
aggeration. 1t vas understood the
defense had three more handwrit-
ing experts and two or three minor
figures, and was not certain whether
to call all of its experts.
Mr.. Wilentz will need another day
to present about 20 rebuttal wit
nesSes, including, perhaps, Mrs.
Dwight w. Morrow, mother of Mrs.
Lindbergh, who will defend her serv-
ants against Mr.. Reilly's innuen-
does.
An additional day will be needed
for lawyers summationS. Justice
Trenchard's charge to the jury will
require about one hour.

nations should likewise be in
terested in removing the dam
ger of aggression and there
fore we decided to call for the
participation of the nations
which signed the Locarno
pact"
OF the London accords, Premier
Flandin said further:
"They must not be misunderstood.
They are principles presented with
a view to later conversations, as the
two governments must act together
again when tehy receive replies to
their invitations"
Outlining the re asons for the ac-
cords, Premier F1ndin reiterated
that Germany's Secl at re-armament
and withdrawal from lie League Of
Nations created new situation.
I'VE think it would be inoppor-
tune" he said, ito give any pretext
whatever to anybody to avoid his
obligations to the international Or
ganization of peace.
There is no change in French
polciy-that is, there is no question
of removing from the League of Ma
tons problem affecting the family
of nations which can not be solved
with the exclusion of some one.
Each nation has the right and
the duty to organize its own Sc
curity. 1t will be necessary to de-
fine for each country the guarantees
for security"

LEAGUE OF NATIONS

BELIEVE we should go into
1 the League of Nations. In the
last six months the League has
centered the attention of intelligent
mankind and civilization on problem
more important than ever before In
the history of the world
In the old days, wars were started
overnight for unknown causes. Here,
for the first time in human history, q
controversy has been laid on the table !;
reasons have been published so that
you and know what they are. That is
an Unreasonable advance.
President Wilson foresaw council
Of nations that has not developed. The
League has met, instead, in an atmos-
phere of economic internationalism.
But, lame as it is, it has done what
has never before been done. 1t has
made it possible for the common man
in the street to read and judge the
righteousness of the cause.

NAZI TREATMENT OF JEWS
By HERBERT H. LEHMAN
Governor of New York.


TN PEACE they contributed to
1 Germany's well-being; in war
they laid down their lives for
Germany's greatness. Suddenly, almost
without warning, by official and ma
tional edict, all the Jews Of Germany
100000 people-were singled out for
destruction, economically, socially and
politically. They have been harried
and driven out of their positions in
business, in public life, in industry and
in commerce and in the professions.
There has been no secrecy, no
equivocation on the part of the German
government. Hundreds of thousands
Of men and women in all walks of life

deprived of their means of livelihood
and of the primary rights of citizen

NEW Works. FAIR
By FIORELLO H. LA GUARDIA
Mayor Of New York.

Mayor of New York.
THERE is need of something
L to start things going, and the
suggestion of worlds fair in
New York city serves that purpose en-
tirely. 1t is bound to have beneficial eff
tects on business, on real estate and the
morale of the entire city. 1t is some
thing to hope for. 1t is something to
keep us going for the next four years.
And that is why so readily endorsed
the idea.
Now four years may seem a long
time to some but it is very short
time to prepare for an undertaking Of
The magnitude that is being planned.
Don't forget that New York city can
not get away with a second-rate worlds
fair; it cannot be a worlds fair which
Is just as good as any other city has
ever had. 1t must be something so
impressive, so much greater, so much
more perfect than any other worlds
fair has ever been to be success if it
Is held in New York city. There is so
much more expected of us than there
is from any other city in the country.
