Iity to send him to the electric
chair or the sensation caused by
his confession.
Nor did it seem to bother Nc
Call that a heavy guard was con
sidered necessary outside the Jail
to protect him against mob VIC
lence.
In the confession, reported orally
by j. Edgar Hoover, chief Of the
Omen, Mccall said it was not his
intention to kill the child, but that
Jimmy apparently was suffocated
by handkerchiefs placed over his
mouth to keep him quiet. Worley
stated, however. that would not
alter the contemplated charge OF
first-degree murder.
STORY OF CRIME
Hoover said the eight-page con.
fession itself would not at once
be made available for publication,
but the Oman chief summarized
McCall's story as follows:
He said lie wanted the bet
ter things in life for his wife
and himself and had been un-
able to get steady employment.
About two weeks before the KID
naping he conceived the idea Of
kidnapping some person in or
about Princeton. The reason
he chose some one there was
that he had no automobile and
so had to handle the abduction
within a narrow area"
After rejecting two other con-
Sidered victims, one because the
boy in mind was never away from
his mother ana another because
he was too close to McCalrs own
age, the youth decided upon
Jimmy Cash.
He prepared the first ransom
note a week before the kidnap-
ing and about $50 the night Of
May % entered Cash's general
store. asked Mrs. Cash the time
and saw that both Mr.. and Mrs.
Cash we're there.

new P. 0. BILL
TO BOOST JOBS
FOR DEMOCRATS
Civil Service Change
To Get Signature
BY EARL GOODWIN

President Roosevelt will sign
bill changing the Civil Service
rules on all postmaster appoint
ments as soon as it reaches his
desk. as he gave the bill blessing
In his press conference yesterday.
But he failed to state that. in
addition to being an extension Of
the Civil Service. it also gave
Democrats chance at post Of.
fices where Republicans have
almost invariably won out under
Civil Service rules.
GIVEN CHOICE
The bill. which passed the Sen
ate earlier in the week, provides
the President can choose one of
the three highest applicants for a.
postmastership. Hitherto the law
provided he had to choose the top
man-but due to the fact that for
many years the Republicans have
held the post office jobs, almost
always a Republican won the top
post by reason of his better knowl-
edge and longer experience.
That situation has created con-
siderable dissatisfaction on Capitol
Hill, where almost 200 postmaster
appointments from the w hit e'
House have been held up. A
Democratic Senate baked at con-
firrning Republican after Repub-
lican while so many deserving
Democrats" sought the same Of
fices.
LAW is DRAWN
Hence the Civil Service experts
of House and Senate got together
and framed the law which is said
to be OK. at the Civil Service
and also in Jim Farley's office.
The President, asked about it at
his press conference, declared the
bill was a step in the right direc-
ton. At the moment it sounded
as if he were referring to the Civil
Service aspects of the bill. Poll
ticianS. though. see in it a boon
to several hundred Democrats who
expect to win places through the
terms of the bill.

NEWS LETTER
From
CONGRESSMAN WIN. F. ALLEN

PROSPERITY--That prosperity il
returning is shown by the reduction
of demands on WPA. In a report for
the week ended November q, a total
employment of 3,257,437 persons is
shown. This is a slight reduction in
the total for the first time since last
year. 24S,000 more workers found
work during October, making a net
unemployment of 100000 during the
four months ended October 81.
o.
AIR F0RCE-Among the many re-
quests to be placed before the new
Congress will be one to provide for a
much larger air force. Just how
large a force will be asked for will
depend to a great extent on the tech
nical advice given the government.
A figure mentioned not long ago by
Louis A. Johnson, assistant secre-
tary of war, of nine thousand planes,
may be the new goal. Previous goals
have been two or three thousand
planes. Officials in the government
who are responsible for protecting
the u. S. and its possessions from
attack, are in full realization of the
fact that the plans for national de-
fense of other years have been out
moded by the new developments in
aerOnautics.
