Oct. 31 (JP) Directors of the government's re covery drive faced challenges from three directions, each aris ing behind legal points yet to be decided. Upon the doorstep of the comptroller-general there rested for decision the complaint of a local Ford dealer, low bidder up- on a contract for trucks from the civilian conservation corps, con tending that It should not be denied because Henry Ford has not signed under the MIA. From the District of Columbia supreme court came a temporary injunction restraining the secre tary of the treasury from award' lug a contract to other than the low bidder for a New York post office annex, who was claimed not to have met NRA require ments. In the supreme court of the United States there stood a prom ise to review the first challenge received by it of the wide recov ery legislation, a case arising under the Now York milk con trol law. Argument has been set for December 4. There wss speculation today first as to whether the comptroller-general would give a rul ing In the Ford case, and next whether the president could override his decision should he rule that the lowest bidders should receive all contracts. Mr. Roosevelt has made clear his stand that the government should not buy except under the blue eagle. For Growing Girls and Weak Women Portland.

LOSE FEDERAL CASE PORTLAND, Oct M, (AP) A croup of Klamath Falls resi dent who three years ago sued to regain money they subscribed several years ago for purchase of right of ways and terminal property for the Oregon. Cali fornia Eastern Railway, lost their case in federal court here Monday. The soiHt ruled that the oiti- sens had "made a contribution for the purpose of building np the city, and they must find their reward In Its future pros perity and wealth.' Failure Pointed Out The case was heard by Federal Judge James Alger Fee. The plaintiffs had contended tnat the fund to which they subscribed was a trust fund and that since real estate purchased with the money was not devoted to use as a terminal property by the rail road, the trust failed and the money should be returned. Judge Fee ruled that "the subscribers are the ones who failed to carry out the obligations which they assumed. Klamath Falls and its citizens have the benefit of a railroad running to Sprague river." The court said further, that the subscribers first failed to purchase the whole terminal and had the obligation cut to 950,000, and that they failed to get the right of way from Upper Klamath Lake to First and Klamath avenue and between Dairy station and Spra gue. The subscribers contributed less than half the amount speci fied in the modified order, the court held. This case dates back to 1915 and 1916, when the O. C. and . line was started here under the direction of Robert Strahorn. As a part of arrangements made between Strahorn and the citizens, the latter offered to pro Tide rights-of-way and terminal property for the new line. They raised approximately $27,500 of the $50,000 obligation, and with it Strahorn bought a terminal site on Seventh street, on part of which the new postoffice now stands. Later, the railroad attempted to construct a terminal on the Seventh street property, but it was denied permission to cross the street with the railroad line. A few years after that, the O. C. and . was taken over jointly by the Great Northern and South ern Pacific railroads. About four years ago, a group of subscribing citizens, with J. W. Siemens the active leader, brought action in federal court, contending the property had not been used for the purposes in tended when they subscribed to the fund, and they should have their money back. Fire or six citizens sued on behalf of the approximately 200 subscribers to the fund. R. C. Groesbeck, local attorney, was associated with outside legal counsel in representing the rail road In this case. Airplane Crash Kills Navy Man SAN DIEGO, Cal.p Oct. 31. (UP) Ensitoi Cleon H.

(UP) George McGee, charged with the kidnaping of Miss Mury McKlroy, a crime tor which his brother has been sentenced to hang, went to trial here today, carrying a Bible in one haud and the other hand chained to a deputy sheriff. The youth, who will face a possible death sentence If con victed on the kidnaping charge, has read his Bible studiously in the weeks that he has been in jail, his guards said. His "hardboiled" attitude which he maintained immediately after his arrest, when he boasted about how easy it was to get out of jail, was changed when he faced the court today. Prosecutors said they would demand the death penalty for George, whose older brother, Walter McGee, is to be hanged for his part in the abduction of Miss McElroy, 2 S-y ear-old daugh ter of City Manager Henry F.

Dtt-ihion l'mpc-ld The decision today In the case, which has been dragging through the Groek tribunal -luce August, cum e unexpectedly. It had been assumed further arKumout would be heard when the court reassembled this after noon. The trend of the case, howev er, had indU-ated lite probability the CbU-agoan would be freed. since court observers expressed themselves as believing the Greek jurists were not satisiled a case for extradition had been made out in accordance with Groek law. Samuel Instill, monarch of a utilities kingdom that tailed, was living in Paris when a Cook county, Illinois, grand Jury, Sep tember 4. 1932, indicted hitu for larceny, embezzlement and lar ceny by bailee. The United Status government Immediately took a hand in the proceedings, and one month later, on October 5." the American em- basny In Paris handed the French foreign office a request for his provisional arrest. Action Too Inte But the action came too late, Insull already had quietly left Paris. He went to Italy, but re mained there only a short time, then went on to Greece. The United States asked the Greek government to extradite the Chlcagoan, but encountered difficulties, due to the fact that extradition treaty was then only in process of negotiation between the two governments. Greek courts refused the Amer ican request In a verdict return ed December 28, 1932. In that decision, the court took consid eration that the transfer of mon ey in the Midwest Utilities com pany by Insult to the brokers of Martin J. Insull, his brother, was a loan, the purpose of which was to save the price of stock In which the loan company was greatly interested. Hgttt Renewed The ruling held that Insull had no fraudulent intention, that he committed no offense, and that, therefore, the petition for extra dition should be rejected and the arrest warrant annulled. The United States department of Justice renewed the fight, however, August 23. 1933, with the formal request to the Greek government for Insult's extradi tion upon a new indictment. This indictment charged the former utilities operator with vio lation of the bankruptcy laws. The present hearing was baBed upon this request. ATTOKXET niS.tPPOINTKn CHICAGO. Oct. 31. (V Al though disappointed by the re fusal of Greece to yield Samuel Insull to the United States. Dis trict Attorney Dwight H. Green Indicated today the prosecution of others Indicted would proceed. "Naturally it Is a disappoint ment," Green said. "We were confident our case would be suc cessful." Proceedings for the removal of Martin Insull, Samuel's broth er, from Canada are still pend ing. Green was uncertain today whether any other step to gain custody of Samuel Insull would be possible. Samuel Insull, Jr., as usual refrained from any com ment on his father's case today. He, too, faces prosecution on the indictment affecting the officers and directors of corporation se curities. POLICY LAID 001 WASHINGTOi.', Oct. SI.
