Dancers S Murder Tria
Postponed Because
OF Lawyers S Illness
By fhe Associated Press

HAVANA, Cuba. Oct. I6.-Patricia
(Satira) Schmidts often postponed
murder trial was delayed again
today because of the illness of an
attorney.
The 22-year-old dancer from To-
ledo, Ohio, will resume her testi-
mony tomorrow, under the ques-
tioning of her defense attorney,
Rene Castellanos. She is accused of
firing fatal pistol bullet into the
throat of her lover, John Lester
Nee of Chicago, aboard his yacht
in Havana Harbor last April 8.
At the beginning of her testi-
mony In response to defense ques-
tions, Miss Schmidt told the three
judge Cuban court that Nee was "a
very bad boy" who wrote poetry
that was mot very nice"
Nee Shot in Quarrel.
She testified earlier that she fired
the fatal shot during violent quar-
rel in which Nee threatened to kill
her. She said she had been inti-
mate with him, that he had prom
ised to marry her and that their
love began to cool when she dis
covered he already had a wife.
Today's postponement was occa-
stoned by the fact that Israel Soto
Barroso, attorney for Charles Jack
son, 27, River Forest, ILL.,, was re-
quired to undergo a minor opera
ton.
Jackson is charged with conceal
ing facts concerning Meeis death.
The prosecution has recommended
that he be freed, but attorneys rep
resenting Mee's father, DR.. Lester
Nee, Wilmette, ILL.,, have refused to
drop the case against Jackson.
Defense Starts Questioning.
The prosecution wound up its
questioning of Miss Schmidt yes
terday and the defense took over.
One of the defense contentious is
that Mees death, five days after
he was shot. was attributable to the
rough handling Miss Schmidt says
he received when he was being re-
moved from the yacht Satira to a
hospital.
The dancer has been the only wit
ness thus far in the trial and has
been on the stand for three days.
Indications were that the trial
would continue at least another
week.

OTHER CO-OP's PROBLEMS

AL Cooporat ives have their probl ems. An
article appearing in June issue of Co-op
magazine Written by Gilman Cau1kins, pre-
sents the probl ems of Eilaca Cooperative
Association Milaca, Minnesota, and tells
how they are being met.
The Mi1aca Coop has modern, 2-story he'd
Quart rs, housing a solf- service food storI
auto and machinery showroom, offices and
large basement room for drygoOds. On the
second floor, an independent garment manu-
featuring company is a long torn tenant.
lno Their structure contains the hardware
and farm suppl les department. Around no
b1ock is comploto service station and
pctrul cum hoadouart ors for contry del livery
and throo ub-stat ions in nearby towns.
They also have a funeral chapel and ambu-
lance service quarters.
Their first big problem, as With most CO.
ors, is finance. The nor building was built
in high 20 st-of-mat orials period. Work.
ing capital is low and rocoirab1os are
higher than desirable. Current iabilitt9
arc loss than a fourth Of current assets,
but total liabil tiles arc greater than
current assets.
To meet those problems, plans arc in prep
arat ion for a member hip and capital drive
to reduce mortgage debt and other payab1 o$
SO that the coop will bdi dobtfroo in As.

cooler weather." Mr.. Hess said,
land it's also about time for dry
weather. So I figure if it's
about time for it, it won't be
long before we get some cooler
and dryer weather."
A lot of help Mr.. Hess turned
out to be.
Therefore, the only thing I
can say definitely to the tobacco
growers Of this area is to quote
Mr.. Oscar Blanchard, one of the
three gentlemen I noted up yon-
der somewhere as leading the
sales on the Wallace market.
Tobacco growers should keep
wet tobacco off the marke until
cooler weather." Mr.. Blanchard
said. "They should keep it
hanging in their barns. In no
event should they try to put
small piles of the wet tobacco
on the warehouse floors. They'll
be hurting themselves because
this kind of tobacco just will not
bring anything like a decent
price in the kind of weather
we've been having.
So-o-o-o, you tobacco growers
will just have to watch for your
chance: If Mr.. Hess gives you
some cooler weather those to-
baccos that are damp now will
have better sales prospects. I'm
til Mr.. Hess comes through you'd
better keep that tobacco hang
ing in your barns.
Getting back to the Wallace
market, the four warehouses in
this sprightly farmers town, sold
a total of $4,000 pounds of to-
bacco during the past five days.
It brought an average of a few
pennies more than $4,000 per
hundred, thus giving the farm
ers of this area $795,500. Which
is good money in rainy or dry
weather.
The Wallace market sold every
pound it could during the past
week. It is still in the block
that has existed here for the past
IL days and farmers are urgent
ly requested to book floor space
before bringing in their offer
ings.

O0l VI SOIlllllc1 &c, DOdIu VI
County commissioners, Board
of Education and all similar or
CARNATIONS in Southeastern
North Carolina Immediately
and without awaiting any re-
quest to do SO will adopt formal
resolutions directing attention
to this promise, together with
calling for its strict fulfilIment
and send these resolutions to
the Governor and the Highway
Commission chief.
If this were done the Cover
nor and the highway head
would be convinced and would
be put on notice that Southeast
ern North Carolina presents a
solid, unbroken front on any i'm
portant matter within the
region.
If Southeastern North Caro-
lima is able at all times on all
important matters arising with
in it to present a solid, unbrok-
en- front it follows just as sure
ly as day follows night that it
will commend the respect of
every other section and that
anyone will think seriously be-
fore opposing the wishes and
ambitions and goals of South
eastern North Carolina.
Logically the question arises
of how a solid, unbrokea front
can be developed for the region
if such a front is not already
in existence.
The answer to that is a multi
tude of Southeastern North Car
DINA associations that have
regular and periodical meetings
and that, on no excuse, permit
one of these regular sessions to
be skipped or omitted. That
would result in a lot of people
from all over Southeastern
North Carolina meeting togeth-
err regularly, discussing matters
of common interests, arriving
at an agreement on any matter
affecting any part of the area.
With such a procedure adhered
to uninterruptedly, inevitably a
Southeastern North Carolina
consciousness and a Southeast
ern North Carolina pride WOULD
come into permanent existence.
We happen to be a Lion and,
therefore, feel free to use this
example. Suppose the Whining
ton Lions club organized ar as
sociation of all the presidents
of all the civic clubs in South
eastern North Carolina. That
means an association of all the
leaders of the Lions, Rotary,
Kiwanis, Exchange and Civitan
clubs and all other civic groups
located and operating in South
eastern North Carolina. Ii the
presidents of these clubs met
quarterly to discuss and to
agree on matters of common
interest it would be impossible
to prevent a Southeastern North
Carolina civic club conscious
ness and pride from coming in
to existence.
The same sort of a South
eastern North Carolina associa-
tons with regular meet
ings could be formed for Cham
bers of Commerce, Merchants
associations, County commits
sioners, County School Superin-
tendents and so on. In the end,
and it would not take long, the
Southeastern North Carolina
pride and the Southeastern
North Carolina consciousness
would be the most powerful
single influence in North Caro-
lima.
