Traffic Habits Must
Be Adjusted To Avoid
Accidents In Winter

Winter is moving in fast, and
unless drivers and pedestrians ad-
just their traffic habits, the usual
seasonal upswing in traffic acci-
dents can be expected"
This warning, given by John D.
Reeder, president of the Delaware
Safety Council, was based on the
traffic accident experience of past
NOvembers, the month that con-
sistently shows a sharp increase in
traffic fatalities over other months
of the year.
The first snow, Mr.. Reeder point

The troubles of Miss Cheatham,
who is 65 and lives at 514 Nine
teenth street NV, began about
10 days ago as she stood admiring
the architecture of the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church.
A well-dressed stranger ap-
preached. struck up a talking
acquaintance and before it was
over they had dinner together
In a second meeting the next
night, the stranger told Of his
handling of an estate in Balti-
more worth several hundred thou
sand dollars. But he needed
$4,000 for bond. normally sub

Miss Cheatham paid off like a
broken slot machine-but with
some amount of trepidation, be-
cause she jotted down the num-
bers of all the bills. She said
"A cloud came over my mind"
The man, she told police, was
Samuel Semprevivo. 81. of no fixed
address. The police picked him up
after he had made a brief visit
to the Charles Town ponies. They
told Miss Cheatham he also was
known as Sidney Botters," and
still had $1,446 on him.

Mrs. Bryan Acquitted
B. Montgomery Jury
In Staying Of Husband

A Montgomery County Circuit
Court jury early today acquitted
Mrs. Grace Olivia Bryan, 33. of
the shotgun Staying of her hus-
ban. Lloyd. 81, on the ground she
was insane when she shot him.
October IA, near their home at
Damascus, Md.
The verdict was returned about
1890 am. after the jury of nine
men and three women had delib-
Grated three hours.
The mother of three children
was accused of emptying the 20
gauge automatic shotgun into her
husbands abdomen on the front
porch of his 19-year -old girl
friends house.
Several Intimacies Admitted.
The girl friend, Mrs. Evelyn
Betty Hawse, who testified she is
separated from her husband, ad-
mitted she had been intimate with
Mr.. Bryan on several occasions.
Mrs. Bryan took the stand
yesterday and recounted in a
halting voice the events leading
up to the fatal shooting.
She said her husband left home
about 1890 pm. october 13 and
returned about pm. the follow
ing day.
My mother-in-law and / were
preparing supper" she related.
MY husband had been drinking,
He pulled pair of stockings out
of his pocket and said they be-
longed to Betty-that he had
spent the night with her in a
cabin.
Il started to leave and he threw
chicken bone at me and I just
walked around the house holding
that chicken bone. Then I went
upstairs to get my coat. AS I
came down, I picked up the shot
gun and went out to the car,
where I unloaded it.
Husband Drove Past.
"I drove toward Woodfield and
as I was returning I saw my hus-
band drive past in the opposite
direction. So I turned around and
followed him to Betty's house.
He was sitting on the porch. r
asked him to bring out his girl
friend-that I wanted to meet her.
He told me to go home and mind
my own business, and then he
walked in the door,"
Mrs. Bryan said she didn't re-
member clearly what happened
after that, nor did she remember
even loading the gun.
She told the jury her husband
often beat her during the last five
years. breaking her jaw on one
occasion. But she added she was
afraid to leave him because he had
threatened to kill her if she took
the children away.
Physician TeStifies,
Chief support of the defense
claim Of insanity came from Mrs
Bryan's physician, DR.. M. McKen-
dree Boyer, Damascus.
After testifying Mrs. Bryan had
complained of severe headaches
and extreme nervousness for two
years prior to the shooting, DR..
Boyer said:
In my opinion, she was not
capable Of distinguishing between
right and wrong at the time of
the murder and could not realize
the consequences of her act"
Mrs. Bryan was defended by
Attorneys James H. Pugh and
Clark King.

NOW THEY LISTEN

When farmers reported they
intend to plant several million
fewer acres in spring crops this
year government officials were
shocked and amazed. They were
willing. for the first Time. TO
unplug their ears and listen to
what farm leaders had been frye
ing 10 tell them for months.
They were willing to recognize
that farm production cannot be di-
rected from Washington by merely
pressing ION" and "off'' buttons.
They conceded that government ma
chinery geared for years to reduce
production cannot be reversed to get
more production by the waving of
some magic wand in Washington.
Farmers, they admitted, must
make their plans based on land, labor
and production facilities. Only the
land was there. Government policies
and programs raised at least serious
doubts as to the others. It has been
difficult for controllers with city
background to recognize that the
needs of agriculture must first be
met if agriculture is to meet the
needs of the nation.
Some draft officials, for example,
operated on the theory that anyone
with two hands and two legs can
farm successfully. They ridiculed
the idea that farming takes special
slxills and that those skills can come
only from training and experience.
Farm leaders since last fall have
pleaded again and again for legisla-
ton to remove immigration bars
which close the borders to many
thousands of foreign workers eager
to work on u. S. farms. The labor
department, under organized labor
influences, has fought to block that
legislation.
It was not until after the low
planting intentions report that de
tense production authorities, when
called on the carpet before the house
agriculture committee, agreed Ia
classify agriculture as an essential
industry to receive ALLEGATIONS Of ma
chinery, fertilizer and other scarce
materials. But that was too late ia
have much effect this year. They are
seeking. however, to place the blame
