He further testified that she was under the control of her rational mind nt all times. "I do not-consider her fatalism an altogether normal state of mind," he said, "she thought sho had two minds, but her . reason prevailed." Her feelings ns she so often de scribed for the three or four days following the tragedy were a natural reaction to the shook Hhe had expe rienced, he stated.- L'ntler cross-examination Jills morning she testified that she realized before Oordon Met tle returned to his homo in April 11)23 thnt her henlth was in n normal stale and thnt she realized this when -she first took a shot at him In August.

Tuklng uf testimony In the Kills mur der trial was brought to nn end this morning at 11:30 with the conclusion by the state of Its rebuttal case: With the resumption of the trial this nttor noon, the pleas to' the Jury will bo mado by counsel and following the court's Instructions, tho case will go to the Jury. In the morning session, the defendant-was cross-examined by C. Z. Ran dall, for. the stnte. Other witnesses exnmlned Included two alienists, Dr. W. D. McNnry or renoieion ami ur. William' House of Portland. Dr. H. S. . tieriieiu Ol I cnuivuin mm liiiiii.t Fisher, a neighbor of tho Ellis fam ily, was also examined. ' The three alienists, concurred In the opinion that the defendant knew the' difference between right and wrong and rallzed the penalty that would be hers when she killed Oor don Mettle. . ' IIcIIovcb In Capital IliiUnlimrtiit. ' At the conclusion of her cross-ex-oSniniitlon Nora Kills addressed the Jury: - . "I'm lorry all this fuss had to bo Stirred UP, v J"' 9 no choice In the matter. I believe In cnpltul punishment." Ilr. McNnry testified thnt there wm Ing. I am heartily In favor of those bills, but they do not 'and will not compass the entire problem. "Many of the farmers are, however, In such jeopardy from their creditors that even with this assistance there is no assurance that they would have a sufficient period in which to work out the necessary conversion of their methods and It would be useless to give to this group such governmental assistance If It Is to bo only for pur poses of immcdlnto seizure by the creditors. First Benefit for Farmer 'Such legislation, therefore would be of little avail unless arrangements have been affected between tho farm er nnd bis creditors, by the funding of past duo Indebtedness and Interest or by similar moans, so that tho 'loans will Inure to the benefit of the farmer himself. Instead of merely to tho bene fit of IiIb Creditors. If such arrange ments can be made, tho. farmer can be given the opportunity to work his way out of the present difficulties. II' they are not mado, it Is difficult to boo how he can benefit from the plan. "In addition to legislation of this chnractor, coupled with- the agree ments which I have mentioned look ing to tho refunding of past duo In debtedness, it is necessary to con sider wnetner any steps can lie fatten to bring flnnnclnl help to certain lim ited areas of the northwest in which embarrassment and failures among country banks have added to the hard ships of the' fanners. I Extend Time of Loans "The war financing corporation is still functioning but its authority to make now loans expires March 31 of this year. I recommend that congress extend until December 31, 1024, the time during which loans can be made by tho corporation and grant some ex tension of tho period Tor which loans heretofore mado may he renowod. "It nppenrs to mo thnt it is essen tial that the largo business concerns, such ns transportation, the more sta ble banks, not only In thiB torritory, but in adjoining stntes, who necessar ily benefit from the prosperity of those areas, should, in tbolr own . In terests, extend a very Inrjja measure of uld In remedy of this situation nnd that creditors even further affiliated, such as our Insurance companies and others, should co-operate full v. "In those agricultural sections In which numerous bank failures have contributed to the .distressful condi tions, It must he rccognlzod, however, that there Is ,n distinct limit to the scope of the assistance which the fed eral government can render. Govern ment ngencles cannot properly mako loanB upon insecure collateral or to bnnking Institutions whose capital la Impaired. In contain sections a more drastic remedy may be nccossary. It may ho necessary on a well organized i extensive scale, to provide systematic ally for the restoration of strength-1 enlng of the capital resources of (hoi country banks and financing InBtltu-, tloiiB necessnry to the proper Bervico. of the furmer. ' "It may be found to be advisable to create new financing Institutions such as havo been organized with great success In the livestock territory to cooperate with tho fliyince corporation. The govornmont cannot supply bank-i Ing capital, nor sail t organize loan' compnnlos, hut It can properly cuir upon thoso largo business concerns, the railroads, the mercantile establish ments, the agricultural supply houses and all those largo business establish ments whose welfare Is Immediately connected with tho welfare of the farmor. It can ask them, In their own interest as well as in the interest of the country, to cooperate with federal agencies in attacking the problem in a lnrge way. "I have therefore directed the sec retaries of commerco and agriculture and the managing director of the war finance corporation to confer with rep resentatives of the Interested groups to devise a practical plan of action 1 MANN'S THE BEST GOODS FOR THE PRICE; NO MATTER WHAT THE PRICE MANN'S J I Three Big Dollar Days f ( At Mann's Department Store 1 Thursday, Friday and Saturday, January 24, 25 and 26 1 m Make Your Dollar Do Double Duly CREPE B I ailliil!i8l!iilliillllilillllii!lllll PERCALE 36 inches wide; good , quality; new patterns.
