 Manning fell Into trouble with the judge almost immediately after his trial opened. Although hts lawyer had sent m affidavit to Judge TNy- tor that he was busy in another court. Taylor refused to postpone the trial, "You're prejudiced," Manning shouted. "I want the law yer I paid for" He made similar comment six times, each time being cited for contempt.

DEVELOPS SIX
CRIME CAUSES
Interesting Conclusions Are
Drawn by Scientist
From 500 Cases
Bv MARTIN KANE
United Pres Staff Correspondent


CHICAGO, Dec. 81 tUPl =
Science yesterday shed new hghtt
on ono of the oldest problems OF
sociology-what makes one man
n criminal while his brother re-
mains q good citizen.
John L. Gillin of the University
of Wisconsin. who studied the So
cial backgrounds of 500 WiScon-
sin state prison inmates, drew IN
teresting conclusions before the
American Sociological Society, one
of 10 similar groups engaged IN a
three-day session here.
His report. based on interviews
with prisoners and their upright
brothers. concluded that:
Most prisoners felt they
were their mothers favorlte sons:
They had "kccner appreciation
of their mothers than did the
brothers.
PRISONERS retained jobs for
shorter periods than their broth
S-More of the upright broth
erS than the prisoners were farm
erS.
PRISONERS went TO work at
full-time jobs ut an earlier age
than the brothers.
5-More of the prisoners were
bachelors. or divorced, or their
married lives were unhappy.
6-The prisoners married wives

with freer trade relations,
he said. Japanese industry,
which is highly adapted to change,
could specialize on those products
i'm which the labor element Is very
large. A great number of such
products could enter our economy
with a minimum of disturbance.
Reciprocal trade relations,
moreover, would stimulate exports
from the United States, and IN
this trade American farmers and
induStrialiStS could expect to sell
a large and increasing amount OF
raw materials and semi-manufac-
tured goods
Since labor is cheap in Japan
and relatively expensive in the
United States. whereas American
raw materials are priced lower
than in Japan. he continued. "our
advantage. clearly, would be pro-
NOTED by exchanging American

ment is not large for Oriental

PRICEFIXINC
POLICY Is HIT
Special Study Shows U. 5.
Not Ready for Step On
Farm Products

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec: 80
UP). The United States has not
vet reached that point OF agricui-
tural development where 1t is
readv for a policy Of price fixing
ether by federal agencies or
others. according to the Giannini
Foundation Of the University OF
California, which specializes IN
farm problems. :.
Furthermore. the foundation Is
convinced it will be a long rlme
before American agriculture Is
ready for such a development.
According to a survey just
made by the foundation, if it were
legally possible to empower 1eder-
al or state governments or other
agencies to fix agricultural prices
high enough to cover cost OF pro.
duction and a fair profit one OF
two things would happen, as fol-
lows:
COST VARIES GREATLY
In the first place, the survey
found. if the price level were fixed
at the average cost of production
plus n fair profit, the resulting
price would yield IN unusual prof.
it to some producers.
Second, that there would DC
other producers whose costs would
be higher than the price itself and
thew would lose money.
Taking peaches rs an example
the foundation found that during
the past 10 years, production costs
10 individual growers have ranged
from SlS.G3 to S6S.72 a ton foi
the canned product, with IN aver,
are Of $33.45. II tho price of $50
. ton had been fixed during the
period more than rs per cent OF
ali growers would have sold be.
low cost of production while 80
per cent would have made net
profit Of So y TON.
CT innate ALSO FACTOR
Tho foundation foand therc waS
: wide variation in costs from
year to year, due not only to diff
fercnt conditions III various sec"
tions of the United States, but to
variations in climate and Other
factors over which The producer
bad no control. 1t held that for
this reason it would be impossible
to fix a lust plice for crop bas-
ed on the previous years record,
because yield per acre is the most
important factor in determining
unit cost, and this cannot be cS-
tablished in advance. Further
more, costs vary greatly during
different series of years.
As regards Valencia oranges in
California, for example, the av-
erage cost of packed box from
1925 to 1928 was $2.02, while
from 1880 to 1884 it was $l.3l.
The foundation concluded that
these conditions apply to all
classes of agricultural products in
all parts of the United States and
therefore make price fixing cquit-
ably impossible.
