 GOES ON TRIAL

London, March 4.-(UP)-Details of German espionage on the Amer ican air force during the World War were brought out today at the trial of pr. Hermann Gortz, German lawyer and wartime aviator, charg- ed with recent espionage in Eng land. A document was introduced in which Gortz purportedly claimed that while wartime intelligence officer, the special task was allotted to me to ascertain the organization and development of the American air force. was able to solve a great part of that task"
 The document said further: My activities were noticed by the enemy through an American officer who had been persuaded by me to make statements and who subsequently, succeeded in escaping from German captivity. "On two American air force officers who were shot down I found a warning referring to me as particularly dangerous intelli- gence officer and containing an ex- act description of me. I also was manhandled by the French at the conclusion of the Armistice and locked up like a criminal after hav- ing been handed over and taken to French airdrome by orders of the commanding officer in the fifth Ger man army"

PROSECUTOR IS
 AFTER HOFFMAN
Anthony Hauck Believes Governor Has Laughed
 at Court Long Enough

Trenton, N. J., March 4-CUP)- The chances for Bruno Richard Hauptmann to live past the week of March 30 were lessened today when Prosecutor Anthony Hauck of Hun terdon county, announced he had every determination" to fight against any further reprieve for the convicted slayer of Charles A. Lind- bergh, Jr. T feel that the governor of this state has laughed at and Haunted the courts long enough" Kauck said, T feel 1t is my duty to oppose any attempt to further delay the just execution of sentence on the man who killed the Lindpergh baby."
 YIauck said he had consulted au- thorities and had been advised that he was the only one who could bring suit to set aside reprieve in event Governor Harold G. Hoffman should decide to attempt to extend Haupt- mann's life-span. The governor al- ready has granted one reprieve which saved the German carpenter from death in states prison electric chair the week of January l3. Hauck conceded that "a lot may happen be- tween now and the week of March 90, of course, but 1t would have to be something important to alter my attentions"

 NOT INFORMED
Slayer of Policeman Will Be Last Person Hanged
 in This State

State Prison, Wethersfield, Conn, March 4-(UP)-John Siemborski was not told today that he will be the last person to die on the Con- necticut gallows. The condemned 26-year -old New Haven co-slayer, who yesterday lost his supreme court fight to escape the death pen- alty on grounds he could not be legally hanged because the electric chair had been adopted by the last General Assembly, will not be in- formed of the courts decision un- til an official copy of the opinion is received by Warden Charles s. Reed.
 Pardon Very Remote
 There was only the remotest pos- sibility the pardons board would commute his sentence to life im- prisonment. A reprieve, granted by the governor to permit appeal to the supreme court, expires Tuesday. Shortly after midnight Tuesday night he is scheduled to die. A few hours before the time set for the execution he will be taken to the death cell, small pea-green col ored and screened-in room a few steps from the execution chamber. There he will wait with his spir- dtual advisor until guards summon him to walk the less than five pac- es to where he must stand while the knot is adjusted around his neck and he is snapped to his death.

CONN. TOBACCO
 GROWERS AGREE

Hartford, Conn, March 4-CUP) Connecticut tobacco growers, who benefited under the abolished AAA, will support a control program pro- vided for in the federal soil erosion act, according to w. s. Middaugh, who supervised the AAA administra- ton in the state.
 Middaugh said today that control programs could be drawn up on a workable scale until the genearl as- scmbly passes an enabling act. with in the next two years, to provide full benefits to growers under the gov ernment act. He considered 1t likely such legislation would be proposed during the session next year. He es- timated that approximately S700,000 was due Connecticut growers in the Connecticut valley under the old AAA program. Of this sum $650,000 was due on second payments and the balance on first payments. Con- gress recently provided funds to meet these obligations.

@~~N~~~-NNN
 New York, March 4 CUP)-Stocks absorbed heavy prof1t-taking in the late trading today and closed ire gularly in active turnover.
 Meanwhile United States govern ment bonds moved higher on the heavy over-subscription of the gov- ernment's new financing and the main bond list was irregularly higher. Grains were steady and cotton easier.
 Stocks carried forward on their momentum of yesterday during the early dealings and the list as a whole moved into new high ground since 1881. Traders were still influenced by the Roosevelt proposal to tax corporate surpluses built up in 1886 and subsequent years. However, late in the day some of the more wary took pro- fits to such extent that the whole market was unsettled for a time and tickers fell behind.
 However, support developed on the decline and prices snapped back before the close with most of the leaders registering gains ranging to more than points in the main list. Allied Chemical scared 9 points to new top at 19O.
 Chrysler and General Motors made new tops since 1929 at 100 "a and 63 respectively. Chrysler later dipped as low as 98 7-8 but rallied again toward the 100 mark.

 Party Realignments

F1Tty kteaukHmeHtS
 Realignment of political parties Is underway as this anniversary passes and the nation heads into the presidential campaign. A faction of conservative democrats has bolted MT. Roosevelt and others are preparing to take a walk. Major desertions are limited to non-office holding democrats.
 Political cleavage extends into the republican party. Some progressive republicans are marching with the New Deal. Another progressive fac- ton is contesting republican regu- Jars for control of the g. o. D.
 A numerous, independent and un- practicable body of voters Is in pro- cesJ of forming collective opinion on New Deal performance. Judgment rendered by independ- cnts on election day next November probably will determine whether MT, Roosevelt shall remain in the White House. The least expected by anti New Dealers from the November poll is an increase in republican house and senate membership.
 This third anniversary of bleak and blustery March 4, 1883, finds Mir. Roosevelt possessing some aa- vantage in the presidential sweep stakes but far from the long odds favorite he appeared to be l8 months ago.

 Japan Papers Used It
 Tokyo, (Thursday) March 5 -- (UP) Roy w. Towards interview with Josef V. Stalin was printed in the Tokyo morning papers today accompanied by comment by an authority of the foreign office, ex- pressing surprise at some of Stalin's statements, which were held to be out of harmony with previous utter anceS.
 The foreign official official recall cd former speeches in which Stalin asserted the Soviet would defend every inch of It's own territory and does not want a single inch of for eign territory, adding that such is the basis of the Soviet principle of national defense.
 We are at a loss to harmonize statments contained in the Howard interview with those previously re- peatedly expressed by Stalin,' the official said.
 He added that Soviet-Mongolian relations were vague and the Japan csc ambassador had asked the Soviet foreign office to define them but received no reply
 Foreign Office Opinions
 The foreign office authority eX- pressed the following opinions:
 l. Soviet influence in Mongolia is slight, so that if the Soviets fail to take advantage of every oppor- tunity to spread propaganda, the Mongols will become indifferent, fact which Stalin apparently real iZes.
 2. Such an "outburst" might serve to puff up" certain elements in China. especially those engaging in anti-Japanese activities. Thus the Soviets might find it very con- venient at this time to use loud voice.
 The speaker concluded by saying that in his personal opinion. the "outburst," was largely bluff and not a serious observation. Officials of other ministries were too busy with political affairs either to study or comment on the inter- view in advance of publication.
 Some newspapermen who read the interview expressed great interest in Stalin's statemnt that revolutions cannot be exported.
