Staying OF
Son Denied
By Holland

Kenansville, July 28.-(AP)-
Sheprose K. Holland, 44-year-Old
grist mill operator on trial here on
a charge of murder in connection
with the death of his three-year-old
stepson, took the stand today to
deny that he had drowned the lad.
Holland testified that he left the
boy, Ray James Goodman, with his
mother, and returned short time
later to find the child's body in the
millpond. The State charges Holland
killed the boy to collect a $1,000
insurance policy.
The Durham Life Insurance Com
pany filed suit in the same court
today asking cancellation of the
policy on the grounds that Holland
sstook it out with the express pur-
nose of numbering the boy'', and
that he represented himself as
being the child's father
The complaint stated the COM
nany had tried on several occasions
to return to Holland the premiums
he had paid on the policy, but that
the latter had refused to accept the
money.

Raleigh, July 28.-OverWhelming
refusal of Buncombe's electorate to
approve establishment of liquor
stores within the county's borders
would seem to offer. absolutely no
crumb of comfort to those favoring
ABC stores and controlled legal sales;
but it is already apparent that the
vote has actually stimulated two
wholly opposite movements, one
sponsored and supported by control
lers, the other by the most arid and
ardent drys.
Movement number one results
from the fact that the city of Ashe-
vile stood out as "a moist oasis in
the vast desert of Buncombe's bone
dryness. Similar oases were discov-
cred in the Mecklenburg and CataW-
ba elections, among others, with
Charlotte at obvious odds with the
prohibitionists of rural Mecklenburg
and Hickory Pumping for stores on
ly to find itself overruled by the
crushing dry majority among the
rustics of the county.
And so the bright boys among the
controllers are mulling over the idea

Roosevelt In Favor

President Finds Much
In Hatch Bill He Dis

"Pernicious" Political
Activities.

Washington, July %. = (AP)-
President Roosevelt declared him
self today to be absolutely in favor
of the detectives of the Hatch bill
to prohibit ''pernicious" political ac-
tivities. He added at a press confer
cnce. however, that there was a real
problem involved in the measure,
which is at the White House await
ing presidential action. That problem,
the President said, is, what can peo-
pie legitimately do under very, very
broad language.
He said that, for instance, it might
be interpreted to forbid person to
attend political rally or voluntarily
contribute to the campaign expenses
of a friend. Mr.. Roosevelt said he
would take with him on weekend
fishing cruise a lot of documentary
evidence on the bill He has not had
a report on it yet from Attorney Gen
eral Murphy, he said.

ton he had talked over yesterday

Tokyo, July 28-(AP)-Abroga-

day by the newspaper Kokumin, con-
sidered the organ of the army and
ultra nationalist element, in an an
cry editorial on United States de-
nunciation of the Japanese trade
treaty.
"Such reckless act of hostility to-
ward Japan by the United States has
aroused sharp resentment" said the
newspaper. "Opinion is rising in
favor of abrogation of the nine power
treaty without further ado. In that
case, the United States should be
prepared to face situation where

can no longer be tenable."
Signed in Washington February

Japan, Britain and five other pow

Cleveland, Ohio, July 28.-(AP)
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
told the World Poultry Congress to-
day that "the only way to make

ton is to increase the consumption

''No other general solution of the
problem is conceivable" he de-

"Here and there single nations

"But the poultrymen of most ma

Some Think Wage
Hour Revision This
Session Now Certain;
Roosevelt Won't Com
ment; Farm Interest
Limited 7 O Three
Percent.

Washington, July 28-(AP)-The
Senate wrote into the $2,49O, 100000
lending bill today a provision for
government re-financing of farm
mortgages. The amendment was fos-
tered by Senators Wheeler, Demo-
crat, Montana, and LaFollette, Pro-
gressive, Wisconsin, who told the
chamber it would enable many hard
pressed farmers to retain their homes
and reduce their annual principal
and interest payments.
The interest rate would be limited
TO three percent and loans would be
made under the terms specified by
the Bankhead-Jones farm tenancy
act.
Also, Wheeler, who is chairman of
the Senate Interstate Commerce Com
mittee, disclosed he intended to seek
elimination from the lending bill of
a provision for railroad equipment
loans.
Shortly after the Senate resumed
debate on the measure, which Dem
ocratic leaders hoped to pass before
midnight, Wheeler urged approval OF
the proposal by himself and LaFol-
lette for re-financing the mortgages.
Lewis Blast Hurts Him.
John L. Lewis denuncation OF
Vice-President Garner stirred up
such a congressional tempest that
some legislators said it had improved
chances for revision ct the wage
hour law at this session. Lewis was;

Terrier Back on Job,
Much Improved After
Ear Disorder

A much-improved Knee-Hi yes
terday taught her six safety lessons
to some 800 children of the Young
School in demonstration at Twen-
tv-first street and Benning road NE.
The 6-year-old wire-haired fox
terrier was taken to a veterinarian
the day before suffering from an ear
disorder after her program at the
Walker-Jones School, but was back
on the job with much vigor.
A scheduled indoor performance
after the outside demonstration was
called off, DR.. George E. Brunson,
her teacher, said, because he thought
she ought not to be overworked
while recuperating.
Her final program Of the week
was scheduled for $50 am. today at
Sixth and K streets NE. before the
children of the Blair Hayes School.
Knee-Hi is presented by The Star,
with the cooperation of the Board
of Education, the Police Depart
ment. the Department of Vehicles
and Traffic. Her appearance at the
Young School was arranged with the
help of Mrs. M. H. Winston, admin

from the Browne Junior High helped
out on the corners of the intersec-
ton. Among the spectators was
Asst. Supt. of School A. K. Savoy,
IN charge of elementary schools in
the color divisions.
The little dogs street-crossing act
went into overtime almost because
of the extreme width of Benning
road at the intersection. DR.. Brun-
son said it was tine widest street
the little terrier had yet been called
on to cross.
Police Sergt. T. T. Heffernan
opened the demonstration with a
plea for cooperation in obtaining

drivers. Jack Dalton was the an
