 Are Two Features

 Also playing is grimly realistic drama of boys who live by the code of alley slums, Universal production.
 With James Medallion, youthful stage favorite, as their new leader, the popular Little Tough Guys demonstrate how sordid environ ment influences the development of boys character and outlook on life.

Court 10 Hear Plea
To Free Chloe Davis
In Death Of -Four
Police Deny Charge Of
Relentless Questioning
Of f11-Yeur-OId Girl
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, April 8.-The
freedom Of 11-year- -old Chloe Davis
became q court issue today as po-
lice defended themselves against
charges they were relentless" in
questioning her about the deaths
Of her mother, two sisters and a
brother.
The girls father, Grocery Market
Manager Barton Davis, was to re-
ceive a hearing on his demand
for a writ of habeas corpus to re-
move the girl from Juvenile Hall,
where she has been held on sus-
picion of murder since the quad
ruple slayings last Thursday.
But Deputy Police Chief Homer
Cross said the police department
would file a petition asking that
she be made a Juvenile Court ward.
Such a step would delay a hearing
on the writ, he added.
The application is a move on
the part of police-who at first be-
lieved her guilty of the slayings,
but later accepted her story that
she assisted at her mothers COM
mand-to place the entire case be-
fore the courts.
Chloe was taken In custody after
her mother, Lolita Davis, 36; her
sisters, Daphne, 10, and Deborah
Ann, Z, and her brother, Marquis,
3, were found bludgeoned in their
home. Calmly, she told question:
ers her mother had struck the
three children, then had ordered
Chloe to hit her with the hammer
The girl added that she struck
Marquis, who was groaning, and
gave her mother razor to slash
her wrists. Mrs. Davis died of
loss of blood, the children Of skull
injuries. An inquest is set for to-
morrow.
Mr.. Davis attorney, Mitchell Moi
del, criticized police with the state
ment, THE United States Supreme
Court has held that relentless hours
of questioning even on an adult
constitute one form of third de-
gree" To which DR.. Paul De
River, police psychiatrist, replied:
"She was treated with utmost
consideration. We never lost sight
of the fact that she was q juve-
nile"

Nozi Vessel Completes
Adriotic Test Trip

ROME, April (P.-The German
freighter Ankara arrived safely al
Trieste today with 5000 tons OF
bauxite from Yugoslavia, carried
through Yugoslav and Italian terri
torlal waters on test trip which
Germans hoped would open up q
new blockade-puncturing route for
war supplies.
British warships were believed to
be in the Adriatic and had been re-
ported planning to halt such a Ship
ment, but the Ankara, which left
| Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia, yesterday,
reached Trieste after what her cap
tam described as an uneventful trip.
He said no British naval vessels were
sighted en- route.
Germany hopes that eventually
supplies may be carried through
neutral territorial waters from
points as far away as Russia's Black
Sea oil ports. Once the goods reach
Trieste, they may be transshipped
to Germany by rail-
Bauxite. mineral base of alumi-
mum, is regarded by Britain as war
material and therefore contraband,
although Yugoslavia does not regard
1t as a war supply.

Meanwhile Italy kept an alert eve
on developments in Scandinavia.
watching the allied blockade tighten
ing there for signs of any possible
extension to the Adriatic.
La Tribuna termed the British
French decision to halt the passage
OF German vessels through Nor
wegian territorial waters as an
action against Germany and the
neutrals as we'll"
The newspaper continued: ut
being clear that the offensive de-
cided upon by the Admiralty in the
north strikes a serious blow at
neutral interests, besides violating
international law, in order to save
face they are beginning to say in
London that real war soon will be
carried to the German 'front.'"
Blockade Contest Expected.
Diplomatic sources here said they
expected Italy to contest any effort
to blockade Adriatic shipping.
They said they doubted, however,
that the Italian Navy would attempt
to close the entrance to the Adriatic
at the Straits of Otranto.
The expectation in these quarters
that the Italians would avoid any
incident in the Adriatic, which they
consider an Italian sea, was based
on belief that both Italy and Yugo-
slavia want to stay out of the war.
Italy, in the words of Premier
Mussolini, is ready for whatever
this late spring brings"
In one of his now rare public
speeches-at Orvieto yesterday on
the first anniversary of the Italian
occupation of Albania-Il Duce told
massed Blackshirts, townspeople
and students of an academy for
Fascist woman leaders that:
Events which we are witnessing
have great proportions. But we be-
lieve we are not inadequate for
them, even considering their un-
usual scope.
whatever may be the happenings
which this late spring brings us,
italy will face them. It could not
be otherwise"
