THREE BROTHERS. DIED TOGETHER E \
One Was Trapped in Mine, Two Others Went Down
 to Give Aid

Fulton, Mo-, Sept. 1.-(UP)-The bodies of three brothers were found today in a gas and water filled coal mine. They died trying to save a fourth brother who died too.
 Louis Metz, 32, and his fsther-in- law, T. J. Wolfe, took a gasoline motor down the shaft of an aban- doned mine, itnending to pump it out. They were overcome by fumes. A worker on the surface ran to the Metz home with the news.
 Three brothers, Ernest Metz, 23, Freddie Metz, 2l; and Harry Metz, 19, responded. The cage was at the bottom of the shaft and they had to slide down rope. Ernest went down first. He did not return. Fred die followed and, when he did not return, Harry went.
 Great Crowd Present
 Meanwhile, a crowd was gathering from all the countryside and last night, soon after the last brother had disappeared. 500 were gathered around the sha1t head of the mine. Two men volunteered to do down. They tied ropes around the body of Louis Metz and around Wolfe, who was still alive, and were jerked to the surface, i'll from the gas.
 Gas masks, obtained from the fire departments of neighboring towns, arrived and men protected by them were lowered into the mine and found the bodies of Ernest, Freddie, and Harry hudled close together. Wolfe is in critical condition.

Col. Kno1 Once
 For NeuU Deal

Colonel Frank Knox, repub- lican nominee for vlce-presi- dent, when interviewed by the Democrat last evening on his visit to Waterbury, admitted that three and one half years ago he was . supporte: of the ideas of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Since then he has changed his mind, he pointed out. His statement to the Democrat was:
 Hike all other good Amer ican citizens I started out to cooperate In every way I could to bring the country out of the depression in which we were living at that time. After I saw that the adsninistrn. ...on was en1barking on . series of un- . sound and iln-Americsn ex- periments with our social and economic system I began to ex- press my opposition as stren- u0usly as I knew how. My feeI- ings have. not since changed with respect to the New Deal policies. I think thas the poli- cies of the New Deal have re- tarded the natural forces of recovery and if 1t had not been for them we would be farther ahead to today, as $ the con- dition in other industrial coun- tries of the world"

THORPE
 GOES TO FATHER

Hollywood, Sept. 1--(UP) Four year-old Maryiyn Thorpe goes to- day to live q month with her father, Dr. Franklyn Thorpe, and Mary Astor begins simultaneously to write a book.
 The first circpmstance encouraged the film colony to hope that Astor- Thorpe litigation is ended for good. But the second caused twinges of anxiety. Miss Astor's diary in laven- dar ink, the principal exhibit when she was suing her former husband for Marylyn's custody, was not the sort of writing Hollywood approves. It told too much.
 Marylyn leaves her mothers home to go to her fathers big white stucco house by Toluca Lake under terms of the agreement which ended the litigation over her cus- tody. Miss Astor is to have her dur ing the school months.
 There apparently was to be no ceremony over her going.
 Dr. Thorpe already had engaged a nurse, Frances Hardy, who cared for the blonde little girl when she was an Infant.
 We are making arrangements for a comfortable and beautiful place for Marylyn," he said.

 Washington, Sept. l--(UP)-The closing of the United States embas- sy in Madrid and the withdrawal Of all American warships now in Span ish waters, perhaps by the end Of next week, were forecast today.
 This government advanced its plans for speedy withdrawal of all American official activity in Spain, determined to avoid being involved in any way in Spain's war or the growing war fever of all Eu- rope.
 Officials were accelerated by the bombing of the Destroyer Kane by Q Spanish airplane Sunday. Had one of the bombs struck the Amer ican warship keeping this country out might not have been 50 easy. Officials were conscious of the im- plications of that incident, In hur- rying their plans.
 All American nationals remain ing in Madrid have been given Q last warning to get out by Wednes- day night.
 The embassy staff may be withs drawn as a measure of safety, in view of the increasingly frequent rebel bombing raids on the capital.
 Presidetit Roosevelt and secretary of State Ccrdell Hull were known to be impatient with the approxiIn- ately 800 Americans who insist upon remaining In Spain for family or business reasons in disregard of re- peated wAxnings by this govern mank Ne e ~~.-s

Voting on liquor questions remains to be recorded in Maine, Texas and California. Tn the presidential cam paign, itself, prohibition is not an issue. The question was not raised in either the republican or demo- cratic platforms. Neither President Roosevelt nor Governor Ali M. Lan- don has discussed 1t.

 MT. Roosevelt is an anti-prohibi- tionist and he engineered repeal. Governor Landon is not precisely on record but his state permits the sale of beer under a technicality and some months ago the governor refused appointment to the Kansas board of the Anti-Saloon League, a responsibility heretofore undertaken by governors of that state.

MAX STORYTELLING
 TALKS ON FIGHT
Claims He Was Deliberate " FOuled By Louis on
 Orders of Handlers

New York, Sept. 1.-(UP)--Max Schmeling, in an article published today in the Saturday Evening Post, said he became convinced in the llth round of their fight last June that Joe Louis deliberately was foul- ing him on instructions from his corner. And because those allgedly low blows were sapping his strength, Schmeling said, he decided to gamble on knocking Louis out, which he succeeded in doing in the 18th round. The article, as told to Paul Calico by Schmeling, said the Ger man had been worried over earlier low blows, but that 1t wasn't until the 11th round that he realized Louis was fouling deliberately on in structions from his handlers.
 How He Did It
 "He drops left shoulder" Schmel- ing said, land comes in to me with a left hook that is 50 low that I make no more mistakes about 1t. Now 1t is at last clear in my mind. That is deliberate.
 "Joe Louis is 6 good poy ana clean, but he does what he is told in his corner. Louis can still save him. self and win because of the strange rules under which we fight in New York"
 Those strange rules" are that if a fighter is hit low and cannot get up he is counted out. If he does rise, the man who struck the blow loses the round. Louis, according to Schmeling, was gambling on a freak knockout victory.
 "In four more rounds" Schmeling says, "he can foul me helpless. l must knock him out at once. And that is the gamble .. and so go in spend what is lett in the bank"
