Four persons who had been

oner's jury which brought in the
nnding that "Seamon Clayton

covery of Clayton's body.
The jury was out but few
minutes before reaching its deci-
sion.
AS the inquest opened Solicitor

that he would not ask the jury to

Says Mcdonald Henchmen,
Frantic, Resort to
Falsehood

WILMINGTON, July 2.-"Fac-
ed with defeat by a people VINO
have become Disguised with his
gutter tactics, Ralph McDonald's
henchmen are now resorting to all
manner of falsehoods in their fl
nal, frantic efforts to save their
man," declared Clyde R. Hoey,
leading candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor, in
an address here last night.
Mr.. Hoey referred especially to
letter which he said had been
sent McDonald's local managers
to be used in an effort 'to poison
the minds of the people" The let
ter stated that Hoey had deliver
ed an address to the Memphis,
Tenn, Fair Tax association on
January ~, 1884, and quoted him
as making "preposterous tax and
liquor proposals" for North Car
DINA. 1t was signed "Fair Tax
League of N. c."
"In the first place, SAID MI
Hoey, "there is no such league as
far as anybody ever heard of. OF
course what McDonald's bench
men were trying to do was to fool
the people into believing that the
letter was signed by the Fair Tax
association. In the second place,

WASHINGTON. July 2. (UP).
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
probably will wait until Septem-
Der before swinging into his ma.
ior offensive against Governor Ali
Landon, it was learned yesterday
as campaign plans took shape.
A late starter in previous po-
litical tugs of war, close White
House friends said there was no
reason to assume that the chief
executive would veer away from
the strategy he used in 1892; :.
During that campaign he deliV-
cred a speech or two during the
summer but it was not until about
eight weeks before election that
he took to the road for a Whlrl-
wind drive into all parts OF the
Union, ending with a rally IN the
Greater New York area.
Mr.. Roosevelt, it was explained,
subscribes to the policy of letting
his opponents do most OF the TAX
ing early in the fight. In this re.
sheet his tactics resemble those OF
Alfred y. Smith who always per-
mitted the other fellow to lead.
Meanwhile, Democratic party

Germany Watches For Leagues Fall
AS Loophole In Rhineland Crisis

BERLIN, July 2.-(UP)-Ger-
man political leaders focused their
attention on Geneva yesterday
with high hopes that abolition of
anti-Italian sanctions will render
the League helpless to deal with
the Rhineland crisis, next interna-
tional problem to be discussed.
Every symptom of the Leagues
downfall is received here with
great satisfaction.
Both officials and the press are
paying close attention to the
movement of certain Latin-Amer-
lean states in favor of withdraw
ing from the League, following
the lead of Nicaragua, Honduras
and Guatemala. Poland's decision
to abolish sanctions without wait

was considered a highly signifi-

LAKEHURST, N. j., July g.
(UP).-The giant dirigible Hin.
denburg completed the fastest OF
her seven North Atlantic crossings
in So hours and six minutes after
she left Frankfort, Germany. Her
best previous time was SO hours

and waited until 5;35 to dock.
Yesterday afternoon, officers on
the dirigible had messaged that
progress was so rapid she might

have cut some IL hours from the

However, Lakehurst officials no.
