REAL STORY

SPYCASE
How Farnsworth Sold
Naval Secrets to
u. S. Rival Told

On the desk of a youthful assis-
tant United States attorney today
stood a cardboard box filled with
the records of hundreds of tele-
phone calls. Beside the desk blot
ter were stacked letter-size manila
envelopes containing the sworn
statements of 81 witnesses who
will never be called to the witness
stand.
And in the minds of those who
know the story there is just a bit
of regret that the case will never
come to trial: First, because it
would be lesson to the people Of
the United States, and second, be-
cause melodrama and spy-hunting
and the activities of international
spies, as they search out the sec.
retS of supposedly friendly powers,
always make good reading.
These things are the residue Of
the case of the United States
against former Lieutenant Com
mander John S. Farnsworth, of the
American Navy, who surrendered
Internationally in United States

be brought to trial on charges OF

In a letter to Representative
George J. Bates (RD. of Maine.
LaRoe suggested the bill could be
killed by an amendment licensing
the "bookieS." He wrote that he
had learned from some familiar
with the gambling game that this
would be a deterrent. He eX-
planned that by licensing the book
makers the enthusiasm Of persons
financially interested in the pro-
posed race track would diminish
because such a licensing would
cut down revenue of the track.

NUMBERS QUIZ
AT TREASURY

Anxiety spread through more
than 100 colored messengers at
the Treasury Department today
with the announcement by Frank
j. Wilson, Secret Service chief,
that his Investigations into a.
legged numbers racket" activities
in the Department will be COM
pleted by March /.
Disciplinary measures" will be
taken, Wilson warned. if reports
that the messengers alleged in.
dulgence in the pastime has
caused their regular employment
to be neglected. Wilson made
plain, however, that the Secret
Service is not interested in re-
ported gaming unless evidence
shows that when the buzzer
sounds officials are forced to
search in vain for errand boys.
According to reports, Secretary
Morgenthau's attention was TO-
cused on these alleged numbers
players over a month ago when a
contact man" was stopped by
Treasury guards at the entrance.
There followed orders that the
Secret Service determine the ex-
tent of the numbers game among
the Treasury personnel. Although
Wilson refused confirmation, re-
ports were that policy slips were
discovered in the lockers of a
dozen colored messengers.
Wilson said that to date no &C.
ton has been taken against any
of the employees.

Dead Man
Is Kidnap
Suspect

PORTOLA, CAL, Feb. II Q.N.S)
The frozen body of a man whose
description closely Tailed with
that of the kidnap-murderer of
Charles Mattson, 10, Of Tacoma,
Wash, was removed to the Plumas
county coroner's office today at
Quincy, 40 miles from here.
Coroner J. F. Moody was await
ing arrival from San Francisco OF
Federal Bureau of Investigation
agents to examine the body, found
in a Sidetracked work car of the
western Pacific Railroad Monday.
The body had been in the car
several days and when discovered
by trainmen, who brought it to
the funeral parlors of Mrs. Alice
Rees, showed unmiStakable signs
that the man, feeling death was
imminent from starvation and ex-
posure, had poured acid on his
fingertips IN an effort to make
Identification difficult. He also
had plucked his eyebrows and
burned hair from the back Of his
hands. Mrs. Rees said:
eve took his fingerprintS and
sent them to Federal authorities
in San Francisco. Two Of the
dead mans fingers were still
bandaged from the acid burns
which had healed partially on
other fingers.
"His general features and de-
scriptions I read in the news
papers of the MattSOn kidnaper
seemed very close"
Coroner Moody said:
"T couldn't say whether he Is
the MattsOn kidnaper, but his
description surely talIies with
the one in newspaper accounts
of the kidnaper. And this
mans diSfigured fingertips are
suspicious"
All Identification marks had
been removed from the mans bat
tered clothing. His general au-
pearance was that of hobo and
trainmen paid little attention to
him when they saw him around
the yards a few weeks ago.

HITS RED RING
AT ILLINOIS u.

CHICAGO, Feb. II G.N.SJ.
Existence of a student "red ring"
at the University of Illinois was
revealed today by Mrs. Rosemund
P. Lowry of Champaign, who
charged her 19-year-old son was
led to run away to join the Span
iSh red forces by student COM

Mrs. Lowry, widow of a World
War hero and a one-time second
secretary of the American Embassy
at Mexico City, said she traced her
son, Edmund D. Lowry, to Chi
cago, "but he had left for Spain
before I could get him." She
said:
you can imagine how it feels
to have the Communists send
a boy of 10 over there, most
likely never to return"
She said her son was influenced
by students rooming at her home
in Champaign.

Jobs of some 5000 Government

permanent, while some 10000
Government employees here will re-
ceive pay increases under legisla-
ton now under discussion and
with apparently good chance Of
adoption this year.
With the Congressional drive for

The pay liberalization program
would affect some 100000 persons

Enthusiasm mong employees

Amendment to Give
Congress Power
BY WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON
International News Service


A constitutional amendment,
giving Congress a conditional
power to overrule decisions of the
Supreme Court, was introduced
jointly today in the Senate by Sen
ators Wheeler CD) of Montana
and Bone DJ of Washington.
This proposal was first advanced
in 1924 by the late Robert M. La
Toilette in his campaign for the
Presidency. Wheeler was La Fol
lette's running-mate in that cam
paign.
The proposed amendment would
authorize Congress to reenact by
a two-thirds vote any law held un-
constitutional by the Supreme
Court. The reenactment however
would have to be delayed until
after an intervening Congressional
election had been held.
This phase was inserted to give
the people chance to debate and
vote upon the issue involved in
the Supreme Court decision.

President Roosevelt's judicial pro-
gram today. Senators William E.

in the House bill authorizing Su-
preme Court justices to retire at
the age of 10.
The provision would authorize
the Chief Justice to assign duties
to a retired justice on any circuit
court of appeals if the latter were
willing. Borah and Burke will
seek to have it stricken out.
Borah said:
"It is perfectly ridiculous to
ask a retired Justice of the U.
