In the governor'! oflce for more than an hour. Newbury presented af fidavits of prominent citizens At tempting to prove thet Reed, at the time of the murder, was not at the scene of the crime. Reed was "wrong fully convicted on the perjured evi dence of Roy Layman, prosecuting witness." he declared In his appeal. Although Layman positively iden tified Reed as the murderer at the trial, Newbury said, he repeatedly had declared At the time of the crime that he could not identify either of the two men who had shot Knott In the car. Layman was with Knott at the time he wa killed. Layman "had perjured himself be cause somebody told him to. Who did, I don't know, but Layman would not have done so voluntarily," New bury charged. He pointed out as a "significant fact" that after addi tional evidence was obtained Layman was forced to resign from the Ash land police department. Newbury said the evidence he sub mitted In his plea for the pardon was obtained after the trial. Judge H. D. Norton, however, had denied the new trial and the defense could not raise funds to take the appeal to the supreme court. Among defense affidavits submit ting new evidence was one by State Representfltlve Moore Hamilton of Medford. George Alexander, deputy state police superintendent, testified the police had no previous criminal record against Reed, but that there was a possibility Reed may have been a lookout man or worked with or was one of the two men who alleged ly committted the crime.

With that course of procedure fall ing, Italy would invade Ethiopia to effect a "complete solution" of the border dispute by force. Despite the foreshadowed failure of his mission to Rome on the Ethio pian question, Eden was considered to have achieved considerable suc cess in his talks, both with Musso lini and Premier Pierre Laval or France toward early conclusion of an eastern pact to Include Germany. The French, however, were tinder- stood to want all four pending problems settled in a block, while the British government was eager to push an air Locarno to an agreement first, so that failure In any other move would not result in an entire collapse. Italy, on the other hand, was understood to be most interested in a Danubian pact, wanting to see that signed before entering any other agreements.
