To Hear Loan Story The story scheduled for telling ‘Thursday was the floating of a $500,- 000,000 Anglo-French loan, by a syn- dicate headed by Morgan and Com- pany, 18-months before American en- try into the war. The big bond issue, first of the war borrowings floated among the general public, came after a change in the U. 8. neutrality policy which earlier, ‘under guidance of Secretary of State Bryan, had outlawed them.

HOFFMAN DOUBTS IF HAUPTMAN WILL BE GIVEN NEW HEARING Documents From Germany Bearing on Case Scheduled to Arrive Friday Trenton, N. J., Jan. 9—(P)— Attorney General David T. Wil- ents will neither oppose nor con-. sent to clemency for Bruno Rich- ard Hauptmann when his case is heard by the court of pardons Saturday, it was learned from a reliable source Thursday. Trenton, N. J., Jan. 9.—()—Gov. Harold G. Hoffman expressed doubt, ‘Thursday that the court of pardons would grant Bruno Richard Haupt- mann’s request for a personal hear- ing when it considers his mercy plea on Saturday. Never has a condemned man ap- Lace before the court to ask clem- ehcy. Hoffman did not disclose his own opinion, but said he would confer with Chancellor Luther A. Campbell, the state’s highest judicial officer, also a member of the court. Chancellor Campbell indicated the decision on hearing Hauptmann, whose execution is reported scheduled for Friday, Jan. 17, was one for the entire court. “I would like an opportunity to ap- pear before the honorable board of pardons when they consider my case, and be given a chance to answer all questions the court may care to ask me,” wrote Hauptmann, convicted slayer of the kidnaped Lindbergh baby. His message was taken to the gov- ernor Wednesday by C. Lloyd Fisher of defense counsel: Hoffman said he would announce the court’s meeting place Friday. If the governor selects the state prison, it would indicate strongly that Haupt- mann will be heard. Meanwhile, the governor disclosed that certain documents relating to the case are en route to America on the German liner Europa, due in New York Friday. * ‘The governor said he had not asked for the documents. The opinion pre- vatled that Hauptmann‘s lawyers were instrumental in having them sent to this country.

D., Jan. 9.—(#)—Testi- mony that John Haga threatened to shoot his wife a few months before he was shot and killed by Mrs. Haga was given Thursday as the trial of the widow on charges of murder con- tinued in district court here. Howard Olson of Ray told the jury he was called to the Haga farm home near East Fairview a few months ago by Wilbur, 14-year-old son of the Hagas, and entering the house saw Haga in the act of getting a gun. Olson testified Wilbur said his father had “threatened to shoot mother.” He said he believed the ar- gument was over a bottle of whisky which he said he “understood be- longed to Haga and had been broken by his wife.” Faces Cross-Examination Mrs. Haga previously testified that she shot her husband when he men- aced her with a stick of wood. She was to undergo cross-examination on the stand Thursday afternoon. In clear and calm voice, Mrs, Haga testified her husband, whom she shot in the bedroom of their small home, often had beaten her since their mar- riage five years ago, He was, she said, her third husband. Mrs. Haga testified that on the night of the shooting, as she prepar- ed to retire about 10 o'clock, her hus- band threatened: “Now I'll fix you for going to town with the hired Carried Firewood Club Haga went into the kitchen, she said, and returned with a stick of firewood, upraised, at which she grasped a pistol under his bed pillow.

She said Mrs. Lapier retired shortly afterward. When the prosecution questioned her over @ $2,300 beet check to her husband for the 1935 crop, Mrs. Haga said she had objected to the check being made out to him.

Issues Compared The | 2,000 Democrats frequently cheered and shouted as the president compared the issues of today with those that faced Jackson and con- cluded with the words: “The people of America know the heart and know the purpose of their government. “THey and we will not retreat.” The most vigorous applause came when he mentioned the AAA decision and said “the attainment of justice and continuance of prosperity for American agriculture remain an_im- mediate and constant objective of my administration.” “I know you will not be surprised,” he had said, “by lack of comment on my part tonight on the recent de- cision by the supreme court. I cannot and will not render offhand judgment without studying, with the utmost care, two of the most momentous opinions — the majority opinion and the minority opinion—ever rendered in a case before the supreme court of the United States. To Be Felt Long “The ultimate results of the lan- guage of these opinions will pro- foundly affect the lives of Americans for many years to come.” Frequently through his address, the President sought to appeal for sup- port from all parties, Sitting only a few feet away among the Democrats were William Green it should be held in status quo. until the Louisiana supreme court rules in the $225,000.

He cited chapter 277 of the 1935 ses- sion laws barring transfer by coun- ties of tax deeds or issuance of tax titles until December 31, 1937. Cites Crop Failure “It is also fair to assume that in enacting these various laws, the mem- bers of the legislature were optimistic of the fact that a reasonable crop might be produced in 1935. Unfor- tunately this source of income did not develop,” he continued. “In view of the obvious intention of the legislature, it was felt the farmers and small home owners, who as well as farmers are dependent on crop returns, should be' given the right to avail themselves of the op- portunity of paying taxes without ex- cessive penalties, the same as the more wealthy individuals who had money available to take advantage of the benefits before December 31.” NTINUE By September 1, Welford said, the crop will be harvested and its value “determined at least to a reasonable from page one- degree.” co D Democrats Sound N.

Speaking on the recent AAA deci- sion, Acker asserted that the fact re- mains that some plan as far-reaching and as beneficial must be devised if farmers are to have purchasing power upon which the prosperity of North Dakota depends. Lynch, one of North Dakota's old- line Democrats, prophesied that waca history is written “Franklin D. Roose- velt will do down as one of the out- standing figures in the United States.” “Our president’s policy of spending millions or even billions for rehabil!- tation is far better and cheaper than arming the nation like Germany and Italy are doing today.
