MONTY RELAXES,
ENJOYING BRIEF
HALT IN TRIAL
Soaping Lawyers Bed,

BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN

ELIZABETHTCWN, N. Y, Oct.
% G.N.S).-John Montag que,
whose life's motto seems to hive
been anything for a laugh" is
taking his trial on robbery charge
here rather seriously-yet he man
ages to squeeze in a laugh or two.
Monty" last night soaped the
bed of Albert Fortmiller in the
Deer'S Head Inn and enjoyed it no
end when Fortmiller, who is a de-
fense counsel aide, slid around in
the bed.
NO SESSION TODAY
There was no session of court to.
day, Montague's trial having been
put over until Monday.
Monty" is the talk of the town.
Everybody knows who he is. And
you should hear the stories Mon,
tague's friends tell about him.
I was chatting with Montague
and two of his friends, Ralph
Owens, the golf pro" at Utica,
N. Y, and Dewey Steffen, a former
baseball star at Colgate.
do you know" asked Owens,
"That Monty uses one Of he
heaviest-if not the heaviest
golf club in existence? His
driver weighs 20 ounces. The
average driver weighs 13
ounces"
Steffen interrupted with this:
"I'll tell you something. Once
Montague hit a ball over the
fence in the old Utica Ball Club.
1t was the only time this was
ever DONE"
They told of Montague's ability
as a football player in his day,
and of other athletic feats. I
suddenly asked Montague if he
could bowl.
BOWLER, TOO
"The first time I bowled in
my life I bowled 190," remarked
Montague.
Montague talked about the time
he went to Florida with Manager
Bill Clymer's Buffalo Club of the
International League. IT was a
pitcher and an outfielder." he
remarked. He also told of work
ing out with Manager Johnny
EverS' Boston Braves.
Why didn't he make the major
leagues? Montague replied: II
couldn't get along with the mana
gers. I knew what to do but they
wouldn't believe me-"

JUSTICE PROBE.
OF SHIP STRIKE.
ASKED BY BOARD
Marine Unit Holds Case
Too Grave for It

The Department of Justice will
determine If there was "revolt
and mutiny' on the Government
owned steamer Algic when the
crew struck in Montevideo, Uru-
quay, and refused to carry out
orders until threatened with being
placed in irons.
A special board of the Bureau
of Marine Inspection and Naviga-
ton placed the case in the hands
of the Department Of Justice after
a hearing yesterday.
TERMS CHARGES GRAVE
Capt. Eugene Carlson, chairman
of the Board. declared the charges
were too grave" for the Board to
take action, and announced that
since probable cause has been
shown of a violation of the statutes
Of the United States" the case
would be given to the Justice De
partment for investigation and
possible prosecution of the Is mem
bers of the crew.
The ships officers had described
the refusal of the men to work
and obey orders. Yesterday, the
sailors were summoned to appear
before the board and give their
version.
UNION BARS APPEARANCE
Attorneys for the National Mari
time Union, C. I. o. affiliate, re-
fused to permit the seamen to
testify voluntarily, although they
announced that the men would
answer questions freely.
Because of this, Captain Carl
son ordered the investigation
closed.
The Algic sailed from Baltimore
last July and returned early this
week after a cruise to South Amer
ica which was marked by two
strikes, the murder Of one sailor,
the drowning of another and the
deSertion of four.
Attorneys for the union con-
tended that the matter should be
handled by the National Labor
Relations Board, since a labor dis
pute caused the strikes.
URGES FREE HAND
Joseph B. Weaver, expert on
merchant marine matters and
former Government official, urged
a free hand for the Government
to stamp out insubordination on
American ships.
In a Stinging criticism of labor
conditions on the Nations liners,
Weaver charged the Commerce
and Justice Departments have
been "hamstrung" in their at
tempts to enforce merchant ma
rine laws by "other Government
departments"
Weaver echoed disclosure by
Joseph P. Kennedy, chairman of
the Maritime Commission, that
crews aboard American vessels
have suspected passengers, in
cluding women and children, to
wide range of indignities.
Even the licensed officers are
not safe from intimidation, vio-
lence and bloodshed, Weaver said.

Chinese officials claimed today
that their troops have killed and
wounded $4,000 Japanese in the
Shanghai area alone In the last
two months. This is their answer
to the Japanese claim that $4,000
Chinese have been killed.
STRUGGLE FOR SHANGHAI
Meanwhile, the furious struggle
for control of Shanghai reached
it's maximum pitch. Both sides
want, above all, to appear vic
torious during the Brussels con-
ference.
The Chinese realize it IS i'm
perative for them not to duplicate
the disastrous, premature break
down, that proved the undoing
of former Emperor Halle Selassie
of Ethiopia, before international
pressure could become operative
against the enemy.
The japanese are equally
anxious to impress the Brussels
conference. They are landing
reinforcements at Shanghai, eSti
mated at 10000. in an attempt
to storm down from the north
and cut off Chapel.
RUSSIANS READY

ments were reported in the north
