WASHINGTON, June, 11. Presi
dent Coolidge has suggested to the
shipping board that it delegate com
pletely to the fleet corporation the
authority for negotiating sales of
ships and lines, reserving to itself
final approval or rejection of con
tracts. While no action has been taken
by the board, indications are that
when Chairman O'Connor returns
next week from a trip to Florida.
The board has been sharply 'di
vided in considering many aalea,
the most recent case being on June
5. the day the president wrote his
letter when it rejected proposals
for the sale of freight ships and
lines in the North Atlantic In that
case one plan was recommended
by the fleet corporation and
another by the ship sales committee
of the board. The final vote was
against both proposals.
In his letter President Coolidge
said he was greatly, impressed
with the "great difficulties" in the
negotiation of sales contracts.
"I have the strong feeling", he
added, "that such 'complex nego
tiations cannot be completely car
ried out by the often Independent
discussions by buyers with Beveral
members of the shipping board.
"Furthermore there is an unwill
ingness upon the part of some of
our shipping men to enter such an
involved method of negotiations.
"In onjer that we should make
a vigorous attempt to carry out
the purpose of the merchant ma
rine act that la the disposal of
the merchant marine into private
hands on equitable terms, it seems
to me vital that these negotiations
should be placed In a single hand
reserving to the shipping board the
final voice in the acceptance or
rejection of the specific contract.
I would like to suggest to the board
that all negotiations of every char-
are arranged through either the
j fleet corporation or the ship sales
I committee are required to go to the
board for final approval.
It the board delegates Its au
thority as suggested before the
end of the month, tt Is expected
that the sala of two hundred ships
already authorized for scrapping
will be conducted by the fleet
corporation.
This sale la expected to bring
Into the market Henry Kord.
Chairman O Connor, on his own
Initiative, recently visited Mr.
Ford and discussed not only the
possibility of sale of ships for
scrapping, but for operation. Un
der the change suggested, such
activities by individual board
members would no longer be pos
sible. Mr. Palmer conferred with Pre
sident Coolidge today on the "Ship
ping problem as a whole. The
fleet corporation head will leave
tomorrow for the Pacific Coast to
Inspect port facilities at Loa An
geles, San Irsnc:sco. Seattle and
Portland, Oregon. At Seattle he
will attend the national foreign
trade convention June 23 to 25.

lines should rest in the hands of
Admiral Palmer (president of the
fleet corporation); that the mem
bers of the board should refuse to
Bee or discuss these questions
wllh any Individual during the
I course of such negotiations and
that Admiral Palmer should be au
, thorized to sign such toe tracts sub
jject to the approval of the board.
The board will then be in a posi
tion to exercise its proper function
in the acceptance or rejection of
the contracts.
"I am convinced that better
terms will be secured for the gov
ernment and more progress made
in carrying out the Intent of the
act than can be accomplished under
the present basis of organization".

authority to negotiate sales of in

"panhandlers", who had lived off
Mrs. McCllntock for years before
her mysterious death and since
had lived off her estate.
Shepherd, the prosecutor describ
ed as a man who never had earned
more than $15 a week.
An extensive study of chemistry
was ascribed to the defendant by
the prosecutor who referred to
study in the Indianapolis, Ind.,
high school, a western drug store
owned by Sirs. Shepherd's father
and in a private laboratory hidden
in a secret closet at the McCllntock
home in Kenllworth, a North Shore
suburb of Chicago.
The prosecutor did not have re
gard for the pre-Btatement objec
tions of the defense and detailed
the manner of Mrs. McCllntock'
death. He said Shepherd was
elated when he heard the news and
remarked that he would "come out
of it with his pockets filled".
Crowe said Shepherd had drawn
up a will for Mrs. McCllntock, but
did not know that shortly before
she died she had made a new will.
Shepherd was referred to as a po
lice court hanger-on at Indianapolis
where Crowe Bald, he practiced
without a license.
The prosecutor detailed the as
sociations of the Shepherds with
Mrs. McCllntock after she obtain
ed the $1,000,000 estate from her
husband, saying the friendship be
tween Mrs. McCllntock and Mrs.
Shepherd dated back to school
days in Kansas. After the Shep
herds came to Chicago for a visit,
which lengthened to a life time,
safd the prosecutor. Shepherd plan
ned and schemed to obtain the for
tune. The mind of the McCllntock boy
was poisoned against Alexander
Reichmann, made co-guardian with
Mrs. Shepherd under Mrs. McCHn
tock's will, said Crowe, as part of
the Shepherd plan to obtain dom
ination over the child and retain
It until he was 21 and then force
him to make a will in Shepherds
favor. A plan that worked out as
formulated.
"Unethical." was the prosecutor's
terra for Shepherd In having drawn
up the will of his foster son. He
also termed It of doubtful value.
Crowe referred to the intended
marriage of young McCllntock and
Miss Pope as an obstacle to the
Shepherd plan which had to be re
moved so thnt the Shepherd plan
of 17 years could attain fruition.
"If Billy had married and gotten
into different environment, the will
Shepherd had drawn up on the
day the boy became 21 would havo
become null and void," said Crowe.
The allegation that Shepherd
then took up seriously the study
of bacteriology was Crowe's next
accusation, followed by the detail
ing of the youth's final illness. The
prosecutor pounded the railing
about the jury box and his voice
rose.
Shepherd, white with prison pal
lor ,seemed paler but once he turn
ed and smiled at Mrs. Shepherd.

Shepherd had learned at the Na
tional University of Sciences how
to slay the youth and had obtained
the necessary geruia from Charlea
C. Faiman tor a promise of Slutf,

Defense Counsel Stewart sought
to have Judge Lynch Instruct the
Jury to disregard Mr. Crowe's re
marks Identifying Shepherd as an
Indianapolis police court shyster,
both Shepherds as panhandlers, a
reference to Shepherd as following
"like Mary's, little lamb", and ac
cusing the defendant of lying, but
the court ruled Stewart should
have made bis objections at tho
time of the utterances. The de
tense asked the exceptions to the
ruling and language be noted.
It was the subject of lolihy

had retrained from asking the
death penalty although the state
battled three weeks to olitalu a
Jury willing to Inflict thw death
penalty "in a proper case."
"I ask you to return such a
