Henry Gray, the little East Or
ange N. J., 'corset salesman
charged with murdering Albert
Snyder, magazine art editor, took'
the stand in his own defense to
day in the Snyder-Gray murder
trial. -
Erect, voice well pitched, his
diction unusually good, the "lov
able little cuss" as Mrs. Ruth
Brown Snyder, his paramour and
co-defendant called him in her
letters, soon was launched into a
story of events leading up to the
murder of Albert Snyder. It,, was
a story that followed the outline
given in the opening made for
him by his chief counsel. Samuel
L. Miller.
He fixed upon Mrs. Snyder,
the conception of a plot to kill her
husband for his insurance, which.
in case of death by accident would
net her, as beneficiary, almost
$100,000. He began a picture of
Mrs. Snyder that revealed her a
woman predatory in her love,
pursuing him by letters and by
telephone calls and as his com
panion at numerous night club
parties and at hotels. He pic
tured her a subtle mentor in t,he
intrigues that preceded the kill
ing, and told of her' introducing
insurance and murder into their
conversations.
Gray took the witness s'tand
late in the day, after Mrs. Snyd-
er's (lefense had rested. He fol-
iowea juorraine, Airs, snyaer s
nine year old daughter, as a wit

A coroner's; jury today exoner
ated four federal immigration of
ficersof blame in the death last
Saturday of A. J. Daugherty, avi
ator who was shot and killed in
what the jury verdict called an
attempt to make arrests in an
alien smuggling ring.
' Seven other aviators were ar
rested and three airplanes 'seized
by the officers, who said they fired
on Daugherty when he attempted
to escape in bis plane. Warrants
charging three of the aviators,
Emraett Longbrake, B. D. Chaney
and Jack O'Brien, with having
smuggled rhiaese into the United
States, were sworn to yesterday by
a federal immigration officer.
Two Mexican stage drivers, Jose
and HenrJ" Machado. brothers, of
Ti Juana, testified at the inquest
that they had twice seen Long
brake and O'Brien at a ranch out
side of Tia Juana. The Mexicans
said two airplanes which they were
told belonged to the two aviators
also were seen by them at the
ranch.
The witnesses said they went
to the ranch on two different
nights with loads of Chinese,
vhich they understood were to
be smuggled across the border.
Several Chinese, who are now in
the county jail following their ar
rest last week on suspicion of il
legal entry, were declared by the
Mexicans to have' been recognized
by them yesterday as among those

terday at 1:30 p. m., when an
electrical switch carrying 20,000

the burns on both men. Blackley
lost most of his hair besides burns
of undetermined seriousness on
his face, arm3 and hands Erixon
was burned about the face and

The state supreme court yes

county clerk of Jackson coun
ty, to appear. May 1 16 and show
cause why she should not accept
and file referendum petitions at
tacking a law enacted at the last
legislative session authorizing the
removal of the Jackson county
courthouse from Jacksonville -to
Medford. i
The proceedings were filed by
W. H. Cameron who alleged) that
the county clerk had refused to
accept the referendum petitions
on the ground that the law under
attack contained the emergency
clause and was operative immed
iately upon its approval by the
legisature and being signed j by
the governor.
The paintiff contended that un
der the constitution of the state
all local and special measures are
subject to referendum attack. He
alleged that the courthouse law
was a local measure.

WASHINGTON, May 3 (AP.)
United States tariff policies were

dent of the. Argentine Rural soci
ety, speaking here today as a dele
gate to the third Pan-American
commercial conference which met
jointly tonight with the United
States Chamber of Commerce to
hear President Cool id ge.
"After the war the United
States became our creditor coun
try," he said, ! "but, in order to
make use of its. financial services,
we are not able to send 6ur prod
ucts because "of high customs
duties which hinder enffance. We
see ourselves obliged to continue
sending agricultural and cattle
products to European markets
where prices are kept down by
excessive supplies.'
"The real cost of financial ser
vices is becoming very onerous
for our national economists, be
cause the debts must be paid for
by merchandise which has 'depre
ciated in price. It is quite natural
for us to prefer as a creditor that
nation which allows easy entrance
of Argentine products."

told the conference that citizens
of the southern republics dislike
being' classed generally as "Latin
Americans." .
