By, WELDON JAMES

NEW YORK, Dec. II. (UP)-
Indalecio Prieto, former Spanish
republican minister of war, warn
ed on his arrival in the United
States Saturday that European
democracies will suffer mortal
blow" if Spain is "lost to demo-
cracy" by an insurgent victory.
He and Gen. Emilio Herrera,
loyalist aviation director predict
ed ultimate victory for the loyal
list cause however. They are en-
route to Chile for presidential
Inauguration ceremonies.
The democracies had never
realized, in permitting the Italo-
German "invasion" of Spain,
Prieto said, that eff Spain is lost
to democracy and becomes either
a military dictatorship OF has a
regime under the political and
economic domination Of Adolf
Hitler and Benito Mussolini, the
power of England and France
would suffer q mortal blow.
Spain will never see peace as
long as Insurgent Generalissimo
Francisco Franco continues re-
ceiving German and Italian aid
but tn e two-and-a-half- year-old
war would have ended within a
few months" had it not been for
such intervention, Prieto said.
Plieto termed the republics
greatest achievement during the
last two and a half years the
complete reorganization Of the
government. FSom the trans
formation of the militiamen Unto
disciplined and efficient army
to the establishment of efficient
police services and the up-build-
ing of all administrative branches

ton occasioned by war.

MURDER MYSTERY
 LINKED TO CORPSE

South Hadley, Mass, June B. CUP)-A Smith college anthropol- ogist a state chemist and detach- ment of state troopers joined today in seeking to solve murder mys- tery that developed with the dis covery of wire-trussed skeleton in the Connecticut river.
 State Police Lieutenant Maurice P. Nelligan, in charge of the in- vestigation, said it "unquestionably is case of homicide"
 From Boston he called State Chemist Joseph Walker in an eff fort to establish cause of death. He also wanted Walker to try to con- firm his theory that an attempt to burn the body was made before it was thrown into the river. Nelligan enlisted the services of the anthropologist to determine the age and size of the victim, appar- ently a man of about 45.
 Meanwhile, troopers dragged the river near Smiths Ferry, where three girl bathers found the skele- ton afioat last night, for possible clues. All that hinted at the vic- tims identity was a belt, initialed e. M.", which was found on the skeleton.
 Nelligan believed that the skele- ton, wrapped in paper mill felt, may have been in the water as long as year.

APPEAL ON JURY
 CASE IS TAKEN

Bridgeport, Conn.,, June 23.-(UP) States Attorney Lorin w. Willis carried to the supreme court today the unprecedented decision of Su- perior Court Judge Alfred c. Bald win permitting an indicted person to examine the minutes of grand jury.
 The decision was given in favor of G. Leroy Kemp, former state highway department land agent who was among the nine indicted by an extraordinary grand jury investigat- ing the Merritt Parkway rights-of- way sales.
 Willis based his appeal on grounds Judge Baldwin erred in sustaining Kemp's motion for permission to inspect the minutes and in render ing judgmefnt for the defense.
 The supreme court, according to Willis, will be asked to regard the decision as final judgment, inaS- much as an interlocutory judgment cannot be reviewed.
 Judge John Keogh, counsel for Kemp, said he would oppose the ap- peal.

tation of the Hartford states at torney here is that he usually op- crates with large and expensive staff.
 The item relating to employment of the Pinkerton detectives puzzled officials in three state departments as it is understood that only one of the accused, Enoch E. Borgnaes, New York accountant, has failed to surrender. It was reported that De- tectives Hickey and Greer were in New York Monday and Tuesday of this week and the purpose apparent ly was to apprehend Borgnaes.
 Jury Gets S4,692
 Payments to the grand jury members amount to $4,692 although the 51 days which they held ses- sions, excluding the special periods some nights, would amount to $3,- SIP at $4 day. Payments to Ray iIA0nd w. Smith, court stenographer at Hartford superior court, amount to more than $5,000, including trans cript of copies of the Waterbury grand jury report at 10 cents page.
 Among the unusual accounts ap- proved by the special prosecutor is an item for $113 for telephone bill, in addition to the other telephone company debits. This is charged as "telegrams and service.
 Another item is that of $25 paid to George w. Browning, of New York, who appeared once as wit neSs, listed as "traveling expense. Browning was reported to have been affiliated with Edward G. Levy, New Haven attorney, and one of those arrested on charge of conspiring to defraud the City of Waterbury. He was paid $4,200 by the City of Waterbury on June 2, 1892 for ser vices in connection with reduction of utility rates.
 Photostats Cost S4120
 Payment of $41.20 was made to the Alliance Photo Co.,, of New York for making photostatic copies of ledger sheets showing stock owned by Daniel J., and Eleanor G. Leary in the Electric Steam Sterilizer Go. This was the company whose stock figured in charges against members of the 1885 and 1887 General As sembly and gifts of the stock were aHegedly made to five legislators three months after the legislature adjourned in 1885.
 The Elton hotel at Waterbury was recipient of several thousand dol lars for lunches for the grand jury and Alcorn staff members, rooms for the Alcorn investigators and the accountants. The Blakeslee con- pany of Waterbury, received numer- ous small payments for truck hire in the transportation of records from Waterbury to Hartford and return.

 RELEASE MONEY

ments. This move is expected to make bankers feel more inclined to grant loans to small businesses. The agreement will be presented to MT. Roosevelt when he returns from Hyde Park Friday morning
 2. Secretary of Commerce Dan- iel c. Roper, in a 1888 fiscal year. end statement, said that the de- pression seems to be scraping bot tom" This was made one day after the president had remarked that he had felt a few drops of recovery rain and expected a "much-needed shower" before long.
 Roper was understood to have made his statement after consulting economists in his departments for eign and domestic commerce, and census bureaus. MT. Roosevelt often relies upon these same advisers for information on the general economic situation.
 Constructive legislation" Roper said, ". points the way to an early favorable trend in the busi- ness cycle for which business should make adequate preparation. I do not mean by this that business is yet on great unobstructed high way"
 The departments figures showed that retail and wholesale inventories were six per cent greater in January than a year previous, but now are 14.5 per cent below the correspond ing figures for 1887. This would in- dicate an increasing potential de- mand for consumers goods.
 When MT. Roosevelt delivers his fireside chat tomorrow night at 9:30 p. m., EST, he is expected to dramatize and add to his press con- ference statement that business is not as bad as some people think it is. He also probably will call upon business to place confidence in the new $5,O00,000,000 recovery pro- gram, now getting under way, and to do all in its own power to keep the ball rolling.
 The PWA's role in the new deals recovery program was expected to yield it's first results within two months. Plans call for the dirt to fly on many of the projects before Labor day.
 Secretary of Interior Harold l.. Ickes, who also is PWA administra- tor, assumed full command of the huge job after returning, with his 25-year- -old bride, from Ireland and short honeymoon. He surveyed the work of his aides in his absence today and was expected to complete all preliminary phases of the pulp lie works program within a few days.
 Less. than day after MT. Roose- welt signed the recovery bill, how ever, PWA had in motion the ma chinery to build hundreds of projects including sewers, schools, audi toriums, bridges and highways. In all cases the communities must pro- vide 55 per cent of the projects total cost, although they will be permitted to borrow their share oi some projects from PWA.

 Raymond Smith was engaged for IA days at SIS day in connection with stenographic work for the jury and made 11,120 mimeographed sheets of grand Jury report at 10 cents sheet.
 Third Costs in Now
 Figuring costs of the pending court procedure, all to be charged against the superior courts of Wa terbury and Hartfrod, the officials here estimated today that only about third of the actual costs of the Waterbury jury has been in- cured so tar. One official, who was one Of the accountants on the Ger aid Chapman case costs, said that the Waterbury jury expenses will far surpass those accounts rendered in 1926 when Chapman had been hanged at Wethersfield following lengthy prosecution of the case by States Attorney Alcorn.
 Presently, defendants in the action of the Waterbury grand jury have presented contention through their counsel that Alcorn was improperly chosen as special prosecutor and that the Waterbury extraordinary grand jury was illegally constituted. Should this be the case, all of the pay. ents made will be in question and whether the state can recover these costs will be further con- sideration of the courts in the mat ter now estimated for long tenure of litigation.

 The injury itself along with the foul claim may enter boxing history along with other debatable points such as the famous long-count of the second Dempsey-Tunney fight and the merits of the foul claim which won the titled for Schmeling in his fight with Jack Sharkey in 1930
 Jacobs said that the debated blow was an illegal kidney punch which cost Schmeling the fight, and on that basis claimed a foul. The claim was expected to end where it began, in the mouth of the little manager of the fallen idol of Nazi Germany. To begin with, Jacobs stood little chance of getting far should he press his claim upon the state athletic commission. That was so because the commission twice re- fused to reinstate Jacobs as sec- ond. Jacobs was not in Schmeling's corner last night.

 The count, it was said, consulted American bankers in Paris about the sale of Barbara's American invest ments, including the Woolworth stock. Her total holdings are esti- mated at about $40,000,000.
 He was reported to have given the bankers the impression that he preferred to have her invest her money in England, the continent. rather than in America. IIutton's voyage to Paris was said to have been for the purpose of trying to persuade the count to retain the American investments.

 "A kidney punch delivered from the clear is not foul," he said. "A kidney punch, however, is illegal when 1t is deliberately made such as during a partial clinch. But any punch delivered when the men are in the clear is perfectly legal so long as it lands above the waist line"
 Schmeling made a special plea that he be allowed all possible rest. He ordered his telephone discon- tinued and 1t was used only when he put in 8 call to Germany. It was assumed that he had telephored his wife, Amy Ondra, movie actress.
