that prior to thnr the acts considered
insane. 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

WILL KILL IIEKSELF
(Continued From Page One)
PENDLETON, Ore., Jan. 28.
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.

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. .

' At the conclusion of her cross-ex-oSniniitlon
Nora Kills addressed the
Jury: -
. "I'm lorry all this fuss had to bo

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
