venue change has been filed by his
attorney and the tribunal will select
a new location for his trial immedi-
ately prior to taking up PARIS case.
Defense Wins Point.
An attempt to save Parr from the
gallows without going to trial was
made by his lawyers, Robert B. Peter,

1t failed when psychologists from the

Dove. who lives near Bethesda,
allegedly has confessed that Parr
secreted him in the house, which was
being built in the 1900 block Of Le-

was on shopping trip.
When the carpenter -watchman re-
turned, according to police. Dove
slipped from behind door where he
was in hiding, beat Ford to death
with an iron pipe and then met Parr
on a road some distance away and
divided the spoils-Fords $40 salary

chasing power of his dollar, and the
public debt-Federal, State and mu-

The administration is trying to
maintain the thesis that because the
national income is rising there is no
danger in an unbalanced budget or in
a rising debt. The truth is that the
cost of Government is growing, and
the figure on which our attention
should be fixed is the ratio between
the cost of Government and the ma
tional income. Taxes, in other words,
are growing at a much more rapid
rate than is the national income.
In view Of these serious facts Mr.
Roosevelt continues to set up straw
men and bogeyS to lambast in his
public speeches. forgetting that the
American people grow tired of name
calling as even they weary of popu-
lar songs and really would like to
have from the President of the United
States a definition of a constructive
policy which will enable them to ad-
