FOR REEDPARDON
Medford Attorney Spends
Over Hour Going Over
Case Ashland Officer's
Evidence Perjury, Claim
SALEM, Jun 3. P) An appeal
for the pardon of Albert W. Reed,
Denver, serving a life aenten.ce In the
Oregon penitentiary for the killing
of Police Officer Victor Knott In Ash
land In 1931, was presented to Gov
ernor Martin late yesterday by Gu
Newbury, Medford attorney.
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.
The two men with Reed the night
of the crime, identified by the names
of McQuade end Jackson, and who
escaped in Reeds car, have not been
apprehended.
The governor promised his consid
eration of the matter.

dictments against Sheriff A. C. Burk

tional time for deliberation, not only
quashed the indictments but ordered
all facte concerning the sheriff's of
fice resubmitted to a new grand Jury
In July.
By his order Judge Wilson sustain
ed the motion of Burk's attorneys,

After a couple of minutes the

They nodded to each other and one

"Thia way out," a guard called,

(Continued from ape One)
An arraignment of Ethiopia before
the league tribunal as "unfit" to
belong at Geneva or to claim the
league's protection would be follow
ed by a demand for an Italian pro
tectorate over the empire.
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.
While Italy, France and Great
Britain were of separate minds on
these matters, some quarters believed
the whole European collective secu
rity system, of which they are In
tegral parts, might be threatened
In the next few months by II Duce's
