Jury Qualified to Return
Death Penalty Is Assem-

BY the Associated Press.
HUNTINGTON, W. Va, Dec g.
A jury qualified to return q death
penalty was assembled today to try
46-year-old Arnett A. Booth accused
of kidnapping Dr. James l. Seder, 70,
retired minister and dry leader.
The capital punishment question
for each prospective juror bore out
the States promise to ask hanging
verdict for the former convict-one
of three men charged with spiritins
the clergyman to coal mine.
The other two defendants. John
Travis and Orville Adkins, "a. OBJ
tanned separate trials. Federal Agent
r. E. Vetterli said they also have
prison records and that a demand
for $50,000 ransom was never met.
DR.. Seder. one-time State president
of the Anti-Saloon League, was alb
Quoted from his home on November
l. Federal and State officers vainly
sought a break" in the case.
Then, 10 days later, the aged
churchman stumbled bleeding and
suffering from the cold from woods
not far from Huntington and told
how he had been held captive in
damp, abandoned coal mine
He died four days later, physicians
declaring that pneumonia "undoubt-
edly" was caused by confinement in
the cold mine pit.
The agents, who said the suspects
had been under surveillance, arrested
the three prisoners within "a hours
and a special Cabell County grand
jury indicted them on charges OF
kidnapping and murder.
Defense Counsel Frank w. Riggs
and John G. Hudson said Booth would
plead insanity. Prosecutor E. E.
Winters, jr. said the State would de-
mand the death penalty.
The investigators, reconstructing
the case after the arrests, asserted a
bouncing" check preceded the kid
naping.
Booth was DR.. Seder's tenant and
had given the clergyman a check.
Vetterli declared the suspects signed
confessions admitting they had en-
ticed DR.. Seder from his home by
promising payment Of money due on
the bad check
Travis was married during the time
the minister was held in the mine
and his l9-year-old wife, Vera, said
she would sit with her husband at
his trial because I love him.
D. B. Daugherty, counsel for Travis
and Adkins, has declared DR.. Seder
was freed at the insistence of the
mothers of his clients.

HARVARD MAY GIVE
JOURNALISTS ADJ
Authorities Consider Setting
Up FeIIowships for News
paper Men.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Dec. g.
Harvard University authorities today
considered the establishment of fellow
ships for working newspaper men as
one solution for the disposition Of the
81 100000 expected from the Nieman
fund for better journalism
Under this proposal some six to
eight fellowships a year would be
created.
Harvard has yet to make any an
nouncement OF its plans, but under
the proposal now being considered a
committee would select, from the ranks
of American journalism those it
deemed best qualified to benefit.
They would enter Harvard for a
year to a. year and a half with no
strings attached to them, free to fol-
low their own bent and take any
course or courses they chose.
This plan. Harvard sources indi-
Gated, was based on an estimate that
the income from the bequest by Mrs.
Agnes Wahl Nieman, widow of d;u-
Gus w. Nieman, founder OF the Mil
Waukee Journal, would amount to be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 yearly.
From this the newspaper men given
fellowships would receive the same
pay they were drawing at the time of
their selection.
Harvard officials have estimated
that, after payments of various taxes.

technical difference between a survey

planned that he would not like to
characterize the present work as an
investigation. A survey, he pointed
out is to find the facts with q view to
