SNYDERT0B[AME,
SAYS SRUTHET
cx-Husband Claims He Shot
in Self
Checked by Police.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. l7-Jealousy?
or self defense?-clashed as rival
theories today to explain the shooting
of Singer Ruth Fittings new husband
by her divorced husband and former
business manager, Martin (Moe)
Snyder
Snyder, held in Jail on suspicion of
kidnapping and attempting to murder
Myrl Alderman, 30-year-old bride
groom and radio musician, was curtly
quoted by police as saying, He was
shooting at me, SO I shot at him.
Ruth won't prosecute me- because she
still loves me-"
But there was scant affection in
Miss Ettings silver voice as she
angrily blamed the gunplay In her
luxurious home Saturday night on
Snyder, whom she had divorced in
Chicago last November after II years
of welded life.
She Blames Jealousy.
L don't believe I will ever sing
again ever" she said, sitting beside
the hospital bed of Alderman. who
secretly married her in Tijuana,
Lower California, last July.
Snyder was merely jealous. He's
not satisfied unless he's making
trouble. He's threatened to kill me
beforehand even telephoned from
New York last January to threaten
me-
"Snyders story that Myrl shot at
him is ridiculous That boy never
owned gun. did, though, one that
I had had for many years. Snyder's
gun was the only one there Saturday
night until Myrl had been shot and
was lying on the floor. Then slipped
into the bedroom and got mine.
Snyder saw it. He took it away
from me and threw it on the floor
Edith Snyder picked it up and shot at
him-her own father I believe that
girl would lay down her life for me.
Saturday night she almost did"
Tells of Threat.
Miss Snyder, Miss Etting's STEP
daughter and secretary, concurred
with the singer and Aldermans recital
Of events. This was:
That Snyder. at pistol point, forced
Alderman to drive him from radio
station to the Etting hillside home,
where, in the music room, he threat
ened to shoot all three members of
the household.
(Snyder told police he went there
ito discuss arrangements for some
Beverly Hills property with my for
mer wife,
That Snyder shot twice at Alder
man from a distance of IL feet as
the music arranger sat near Miss
Etting on the piano bench. Alder
man was struck once in the abdo-
men.
That Snyder wrested Miss EtNng's
pistol from her grasp, but Miss Snyder
chased the singer to the kitchen. He
was not wounded
Record Being Checked.
Detective 1t. j. R. Stephens an
nounced police are investigating Sny-
ders record in New York and WASH
jngton "on information that he may
be wanted for racket activities in the
East, although he says he is Clean"
Miss Etting said her entire career
from the time she left a David City
'Nebr) farm to her last job-an Eng
lish musical in l936-had been Just
drudgery."
The days since Myrl and I were
married have been the happiest in
my life"
