lini can never prove It, but there la
good reason to believe that President
Room ve It has started out to invoke
aome very, very subtle economic sanc
tion against the duce.
In fact, word has been passed down
the official inside
line here that the
American experts
ca.n take their
jwn good time
tbout negotlat
ng that new
rade treaty with
italy.
Of course, the
itate department
Jentes with great
feeling that the
treaty 1a being
held up deliber
ately. Our diplo
mat cross tneir
.MALI. UN
nearts
ana swear
that they would never think of of
fending Mussolini that way. They are
especially vehement about that since
Mussolini has been quoted In the pa
per as saying that. If anyone tries
anything like that. It "would lead to
most serious complications."
But the facts are that about a week
ago Italy asked this government
pointedly that negotiation be speed
ed up. The Italian premier la appar
ently In a hurry to buy materials
which may not be barred by the neu
trality resolution. Also his suspicions
must have been aroused. Informal
talks about the treaty were started
months ago, bul nothing ever hap
pen about It. Furthermore. Italy
has been having considerable difficul
ty arranging credits and the govern
ment here has decided Italy is not a
very good risk Just now.
Unfortunately for Mussolini, the
trade treaty situation is In charge of
Assistant State Secretary Sayre. He
happens to be on his vacation. When
he returns he will undoubtedly have
to give his first attention to more
pressing matters. There are so many
things one must attend to when one
la assistant secretary of state, especi
ally when one wants to attend to
other things.
Meanwhile the official explanation
of the treaty situation la that "we are
working on It." That Is an impregna
ble explanation. It Is true, but for
complete accuracy It should be added
that "wo are not working very hard."
Officials do not ordinarily get ex
cited about a little red tape. They
accept it as an Inevitable part of gov
ernment. But even the most hardened
among them blanched in the soil
erosion service the other day when a
letter was received from a field man
ager, reading something like this:
"Why Is it that we cannot get the
ecraper we ordered last spring? When
I was there In April, I was told you
were studying specifications. I was
again given the same story in June.
I suppose If I camo there now It
would still be the same."
It would.
Note The soli erosion crowd will
deny It, but several thousand men In
the field are working at less than
half efficiency because they have
been unable to get proper tools. Sup
plies for the bureau arc bought thru
Its own purchasing agency and not
through the people's procurement
system, which buys for most of the
emergency works activities.
The A. F. of L. la involved in an
other warm Inside scrap about craft
unionism. There will be trouble about
It at the coming convention.
When the executive council met
recently. United Mine Worker John
Lewis and Machinist Arthur Wharton
shook fingers at each other's noses
about the issue. Wharton, who Is a
bantam, went to the extent of invit
ing Heavyweight Lewis outside. Lewis
did not go, which was lucky for Mr.
Wharton.
Lewis lost out In the executive
council by a large vote, but it may be
different at the convention.
Note William Green will undoubt
edly be re-elected A. F. of L. president
without difficulty. There is no par
ticular sentiment for him. also none
atralnst him.
A memo urging revival of the NRA
has been put Into private circulation
by the National Catholic Welfare
Council. It sets forth at some length
the existing economic situation and
advises more than temporarily reme
dial measures. Specifically, It urges
the convening of a congress of leaders
of thought In industry, labor, govern
ment, and law to discuss ways and
means of restoring at least the major
social features of NRA. The Rev. John
Ryan, liberal churchman. Is supposed
to be behind it.
The new dealers probably will await
the outcome of pending lgal cases
before trying anything like thst.

Diplomat Seriously Hurt.
SANTA FE, N. M., Aug. 31. (AP)
Mrs. Harold L. Ickes, 63, wife of
the secretary of tbe Interior, who
carved out a distinguished career
for herself as an author and politi
cal figure, was killed today In rug
ged Rio Grande canyon when a ''hit
and run", driver crushed her auto
mobile. Mrs. Genevieve Forbes Herrlck,
Washington, D. C, newspaper and
magazine writer, and Ibrahim Sey
fullah, attache of the Turkish em
bassy, were seriously Injured as the
Ickes car was hurtled Into a ditch
38 miles north of here.
A third person. Frank Alien, Gal
lup, N. M., ta2lr-,in, who served
Mrs. Ickea as drlvr on her frequent
trips over mountain lands near her
summer home at Coolldge, N. M.,
also was Injured.
The startling suddenness of the
death of the cabinet member's wife
shocked official Washington, partic
ularly the president and Mrs. Roose
velt who knew her as a distinguish
ed mother of four children and an
intimate friend.
"It la a most tragic thing to have
happened," exclaimed Mrs. Roosevelt,
and the president dispatched a mes
sage to Secretary Ickes before leav
ing the capital for Hyde Park, N. Y.
Vhe "hit and run" driver struck
t.ie Ickes car as it emerged from
the steep-walled canyon of the Rio
Grande river, 10 miles north of Es
panola. Espanola, a tiny adobe settlement,
is in an Isolated spot in the rugged
gash that the river traces from the
desert stableland on the Taos plains
down to the hilly country In the
Santa Fe area.
On Way To Fiesta
The group had Journeyed to the
Indian pueblos at Taos, N. M and
was returning from a visit to lb
artist colony. They were enrouto" to
Santa Fe to witness the opening to
morrow of the glamorous annual
fiesta.
The accident occurred between 6
and 6 p. m., M. S. T., but frag
mentary accounts to state police
were so confused that first reports
of the accident said John Herrlck,
of Washington, husband of Mtb.
Herrlck. was injured. J. R. Mod rail,
assistant state attorney general, said
the report arose from Investigation
of papers found In the wrecked ma
chine. The state attorney later estab
lished that Seyfullah had been In
correctly Identified as Herrlck.
Modrall 'vas one of the first who
reached the point of the crash. He
made Immediate Identification ot
Mrs. Tckes through calling cards In
her purse and other Identifications
whic'u referred "to her as the wife
of tne cabinet member.
Because the injured persons were
unable to give coherent accounts of
the crash, state police were at a
' handicap In their inquiry. They
j were Informed a "dark sedan" striTck
j the Ickea car, and that was their
I only meager clue.
C;flcera attempted to question the
victims who were conscious only at
short Intervals. They learned the
injured persons did not see the li

New Record On Robot Map
Lists Medford As Gate
way to Scenic Wonder
Not Mentioned at First.
A. 8. Rosenbaum, S. P. district
agent, received a wire today from San
Francisco, bringing good news to
Medford and Crater Lake.
Sometime ago 1 1 was d Iscovered
that the S. P. robot map, displayed
at the San Diego exposition did a
great Injustice to Medford.
When the views of Crater Lake were
shown on the screen the robot an
nounced this great natural wonder
could best be reached on the 8. P.
lines "from Klamath Falls and Grants
Pass." Medford which has always
been and still is the main gateway
was not even mentioned.
This of course was an unintention
al error, but in answer to protests
from this city via the local chamber
of commerce, 8. P. officials claimed
nothing could be done, as the sound
records had been taken and could not
be changed. 1
Several weeks ago the Mall Tribune
took this matter up with Mr. Rosen
baum and persuaded him something
could be done, and It was up to the
S. P. to do It.
Thanks to Rosey's persistent efforts
and fine cooperation on the part of
J. A. Ormandy of Portland, general
passenger agent, and F. S. McGlnnls
of San Francisco, vice president in
charge of passenger traffic, something
has been done and now all Is Jake as
far as the S. P. robot. Medford and
Crater Lake are concerned.
To bring this about the entire robot
exhibit was shut down for ten days
and working night and day. a special
force corrected the sound record so it
now announces, as the views of Crater
Lake are flashed on:
"Crater Lake la reached from Med
ford, famous for lta fine pears, and
from Klamath Falls!"
The new record waa operated for
the first time yesterday morning and
will be hitting on high for the heavy
week end attendance over Labor Day,
and until the exposition closes.
"Fine work by the S. P." was the
expression heard on ail aides yester
day when the news of the change was
received.

LADDER EVIDENCE
WRECKED DEFENSE
Letter From Death House
To Wife Brands 'Jasie'
And State Witnesses As
Perjurers.
NEW YORK, Aug. 31. (AP)
Bruno Richard Hauptmann In a let
ter, 'made p'.bllc today, told his wife
that evidence he had entered the
Lindbergh nursery by climbing a
ladder "really knocked the bottom
out of my whole defense."
Hauptmann, sentenced to death on
conviction of the slaying of the Lind
bergh baby, attacked the ladder evi
dence as false and he declared "many
state's witnesses perjured themselves
for publicity." He particularized his
fire on Dr. John F. Condon, the
"Jafsle" who paid over the aso.OOO
Lindbergh ransom.
Of the landlord who testified In
the Flemlngton trial that he had dls- I
covered a board was missing from
Kauptmann's attic flooring, Haupt-!
mann wrote: j
"Dear Anny, who know aa well as
I da that we moved Into the apart
ment by Mr. Rauch October 13, 1931.
and the record from the storage house
where wa took out furniture will tell
the same. He (Rauch) said x x he In
spected the attlo and found no
boards missing, x x x as long as we
lived In hla house, he was only once
In the attlo and that was In the sum
mer 1033. His statement on the wit
ness stand was a wilful falsehood."
The prisoner apparently was at
tempting to show that the landlord
did not Inspect the attlo until after
the kidnaping and, that If no board
waa missing at the lme of his visit,
it could not havs been part of the
ladder.
Hauptmann attacked as "wilful
falsehoods" all testimony that floor
ing from his attlo went Into the com
position of the ladder claimed to
have been used in gaining access to
the Lindbergh nursery.
He singled out Amend us Hocknut,
87-year-old resident of Hopewell, who
said he saw Hauptmann near the
Lindbergh home several hours before
the kidnaping; Cclia Barr, who testi
fied she sold Hauptmann a ticket to
a movie In November. 1933; and Mrs.
Ella Achenbach, a former neighbor,
who testified she saw Hauptmann
limping (the state claimed he injured
himself In descending from the
nursery) about the time of the kid
