British Merchant
Chief Kills Self
To End Worries

BATON ROUGE, La, Dec. 18 CUP)
Capt. r. H. Guswell, worried over
the safety of his oil-laden ship
which he was expected to return
for England's war machine, COM
mitted suicide today in his cabin or
the tanker British Officer"
He was 49, and a native of Ply
mouth, England.
First Officer Leonard Handling
found him lying on the floor of the
cabin with 25 calibre pistol in his
hand and a wound in his head.
DR. Harry Johnston, coroner, re-
turned a verdict of suicide.
Rambling said that the captain
had been worried since the last
voyage from England when the
British Officer was chased by a
German submarine, and he had
seen four merchantmen in the con-
voyed fleet sunk.
He was worried also. Rambling
said, lest his crew desert and he
be fined $1,000 for each man that
landed without proper passports
A collision of the British Officer
With the tug Mokita in the Missis-
sippi river 15 miles south of here
last Thursday apparently was the
final blow. He had been in his cabin
most of the time since.

Olson Asks Reorganization Of State
Legislature on Population Basis

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 18. (UP)--
Reorganization of the state legisla-
ture on population basis with leg
islators as full-time public servants
and paid accordingly, is necessary
for purposes of sound government,
according to Gov. Culbert l.. Olson.
Californias legislative machinery
no longer is adequate for our needs,
the governor declared last night in
his weekly radio speech.
Although he has many times sug-
gested the need of a unicameral
legislature, Olson skirted the issue
in his speech last night, proposing
only that the number of legislators
be reduced that districts be reap
portioned strictly on a population
basis, that they be paid adequately
for a full-time job and that SeS-
sions be held annually instead Of
biennially.
At one time both the senate and
the assembly were apportioned on
a population basis, but through
an initiative constitutional amend
ment passed in 1928, rural repre-
sentation was increased in the SEN
ate when each county was allotted
only one senator.
Each of Olsons proposals would
require vote of the people to be-
come effective. He listed them while
outlining his l4-point legislative
program which he sent to legisla-
tors last week.
There is an enormous accumu-
lation of other public matters cry

Ariz. Lawmakers
Shun Ruth Judd's
Double Cross Yarn

PHOENIX, Dec. 18. CUP)-Repre-
sentatiyes to both houses of the
state legislature today ignored Win
ME Ruth Judd's plea for new trial
on her accusations of having been
double crossed" in her trunk muir
der trial eight years ago.
II cannot see where Mrs. Judd's
case falls within the sphere of the
legislature said Mel Goodson,
speaker of the lower house.
"We-and I think I speak for
the majority-are definitely inter
eSted in the administration of the
state hospital where she is confined
but not in her nor in the history
of her case"
Mrs. Judd, who in 1881 killed her
two best friends" hacked their
bodies to pieces and shipped them
to Los Angeles in two trunks, said
in letter addressed to the legisla-
ture that she had refrained from
testifying in her original trial be-
cause she was told she would there
by get out of the state hospital in
six months"
They frightened me-" the letter
read "They said if 1 didn't go on
the witness stand 1 would be freed
in six months. But they double
crossed me"
She promised to disclose new
evidence" if the legislature granted
her a new trial.
State Sen. James Minotto said
that if Mrs. Judd believed she was
double crossed "she should present
the facts to the attorney general
or the supreme court
"Of the three branches of the
government" Minotto said, II think
the legislature is least concerned
with Mrs. Judd'S case"
Gov. r. T. Jones would not COM
ment on the letter which was found
in Winnie Ruth's purse when she
was captured at Yuma, Ariz., three
days ago at the end of her second
flight from the state hospital.

Migrants Send Christmas GREETINGS
To Roosevelt Along with New Plea

BAKERSFIELD Cal, Dec. 18
UP)-California's unemployed Dust
Bowl migrants sent Christmas greet
ings to President Roosevelt today
and threw in a direct appeal for
aid.
With the help of Mrs. Sue San
ders, author of THE Common Herd
ard sclf-apDointed assistant to the
displaced farmers, a recording de-
vice was borrowed, the greeting and
appeal transcribed and the disc sent
off to washington to be played by
the president on Christmas day.
Harrison Ward, father of II chill
drcn, was selfdesi signated produc-
ton chief and announcer of the
"Okies Farm Hour" He said.
LAS head of the Okie Farm Hour
in the Arvin federal migrants camp
in Kern county (about 125 miles
north of Los Angeles) I want to
wish you a merry Christmas and a
right nice New Year.
And please, President Roosevelt
when our bell cow Ma Sanders
comes to Washington before long to
tell you about us and our troubles
we hope you will pay heed to her"
Christmas carols and songs Of
the southwest-Oklaho Kansas
and Taxas-Were added to the re-
cording in the shrill voices of the
migrants children.

ing for legislative attention." Olson
said "It is most unfortunate that
more of them cannot be consider
ed at the special session tentative
ly scheduled for next month";.
Instead they will have to be
held in allegiance until the next
regular session in 1941 when we
may again expect the situation
which prevailed at the 1899 session,
when there were so many irnpor-
tant bills presented that it was not
within human capacity for the leg
islatorS to give consideration to, OF
take wise action upon all of them
Hundreds of bills received only the
ScantieSt attention and never reach
ed The floor for debate or vote.
For the purposes of sound gov
ernment and general public well
fare, these are thoroughly bad con-
ditions. They should focus our
sharpest attention on the fact that
Californias legislative machinery
was built long years ago when
changes were relatively slow, when
demands upon government were
still small.
This machinery is no longer
adequate for our needs"
The $1,000 annual salary paid
legislators, is grossly inadequate, Oh
son continued Modern govern
mental problems require far more
study and research than they can
give them in the few months OF
the regular legislative sessions, he
said.

NLRB Expense Item
Probed by So|ons
In Board Inquiry

WASHINGTON, Dec 18. UP)-
The house committee investigating
the National Labor Relations board
today put into its record an Official
NLRB report that James P. Miller
deposed NLRB regional director at
Cleveland, told two stories about
who paid his expenses on a trip
to New York before he was asked
to resign.
At the insistence of Rep. Abe
Murdock, D., Utah, the committee
overruled its counsel, Edmund N
Toland, and put the report into
the record.
The report was from NLRB In
veStigator Robert M. Gates. He said
Miller told him on April 7, 1899,
that Glen o. Smith, Cleveland at
torney for employers, paid his ex-
penses to a dinner Smith gave in
New York, but later told the board
that he had reimbursed Smith in
March. Gates said that in April
Miller had told him he did not
know the cost of the dinner or his
own expenses.

She ascribed their present pre-

that more dirt farmers" wera

gested that each dispossessed far

said.

KEGLERS WILL
FORM LEAGUE
Team Sponsors Asked to Turn
in Names; Set Meeting for
First of October.

Organization of a mems bowling
league here will be completed the first
week in october, Ray Phillips, pro-
prietor of the Ely Bowling Center,
states.
Persons interested in sponsoring
teams are requested by Phillips to sub
NIT to him their names and indemnity
of team members before that time,
however.
An organization meeting, featured by
a feed, will be called the first of next
month, he said, for the election of
league officers and to arrange details
of competition.
A year ago the Sweet Shop team was
awarded a large silver loving cup for
taking the league title. This is a
travelling trophy, and it's possession will
be at stake during coming competition.
The season was climaXed by the serv-
ing of a banquet to all persons partici-
pating in league play, and it is planned
to repeat this again.
A women's league will also be Or
ganized, Phillips says.
