SOUTHERN OREGON MINER what News Review of Current Events the World Over Hauptmann Reprieved by Governor Hoffman l’lan Devised to Avoid New \ \ \ legislation— Bonus Bill Favored in Senate. 3 Quilt of Blocks That Picture Nursery Rhymes thinks about: Seed, of Lawlessness. IITESTWOOD, CALIF.— ▼ v For our lawlessness we're I forever blaming hot-headed I ESS than thirty hours from the time when he was to die in the electric chair, Bruno Richard Hauptmann, convicted kidnaper and slayer of the I.lnd bergh baby, was given a thirty-day reprieve by Gov- ernor Hoffman of New Jersey. This means he will have at least sixty more days to live, be cause lie will have to be re-sentenced. 'be governor «lid not give the spe Bruno cific reasons for his Hauptmann action. He did say: “A reprieve is an act of executive clemency rather than judicial clem ency. I am not required to give a reason, but I might say that there are grave doubts In this case, not only in my mind, but in the minds also of our citizens." There will be only one reprieve, “unless the evidence should war rant” another, the governor said. If Hauptmann Is to lie finally saved It must be through the presenta tion of sufficient new evidence to warrant Justice Trenchard grant ing a request for a new trial, or for a new plea for clemency to the state pardons court. The stay came after the United States Supreme court at Washing ton refused to admit attorneys to file a petition for a writ of habeas corpus for Hauptmann. That closed the door to all further legal action designed to delay the execution. Various stories about the crime, some new and others old. are going the rounds and are being Investi gated by authorities and by the forces of the defense. They are too complicated for summary here. ITERARY DIGESTS Preslden- I tial straw vote has been con cluded, and the final returns indi cate a growing opposition to the New Deal. A total of 1.907,681 bal lots was received, and of these 62.G6 per cent were cast against the President's policies and acts, and 37.34 per cent were for the admin istration. Thirty-six states gave majorities against to eleven still In favor of the President and his policies. Among the pro-Roosevelt states was Utah. The others vere classified in the release as "southern uml border'” states. Of the different sections of the country. New England cast the heaviest “No” vote, going 77.98 per cent against the administration. The Middle Atlantic states from New York to the west showed G8.S9 per cent of the voters against Mr. Roosevelt and liis recovery schemes, while the Middle Western states in the farm belt and the Rocky Moun tain states indicated a ratio ap proximately the same as the na tion at large—3 to 2 against. The three Pacific coast states totaled 58.04 against the New Deal. 'T'lIERE will be no new leglsla- tion to continue the aims of the AAA, if the plans of the ad ministration are adopted, for it has been found by offi cials that the soil conservation act of 1935 will permit the undertaking of about everything in the bill that the house and senate agricultural co m- mittees were draw ing up. In a White House conference the new Sen. Robinson program was agreed upon by President Roose velt, Senator J. T. Robinson, ma jority leader; Secretary of Agri culture Wallace, Attorney General Cummings, Chairman Ellison D. Smith of the senate agriculture committee. Chairman Marvin Jones of the house agriculture committee. Speaker Joseph W. Byrns, Senator John H. Bankhead (Dem., Ala), AAA Administrator Davis, and M. G. White of tha AAA. The administration will work out a system of grunting farm subsi dies to farmers restricting acreage under authority of the soil con servation act of 1935. In connec tion with the program the adminis tration will make provision for obligations incurred under the AAA. In a radio address Herbert Hoov er offered the country bls own plan for bringing recovery to the farm- road er, Asserting that a new must be built by which agriculture can “get back onto the solid ground from the quicksand of the New Deal," Mr. Hoover outlined tnree general or group proposals for farm recovery. They are; 1. The restoration of the home market to American farmers. 2. The retirement of "thin" and aubmiirginal acres, with a slow ing up of reclamation of projects. 3.
