By the Assoctated Press. LOS ANGELES, Calif.. December 9. ~—Arthur C. Burch had his freedom to- night after standing trial three times for murder and once for insanity. The juries of the murder charge all disa- greed and the allenists at the insanity hearing did likewise, but the weight of sxpressed belief of the latter was that ‘Burch was sane or harmless, if insane, 80 his freedom was restored to him. Burch said he did not know what llo' would do. The action today completed a long chapter of trials, all based on the murder of J. Belton Kennedy, a young broker, who was shot down on the steps of his summer cottage, in Bev- erly Glen, seventeen months ago. Burch and Mrs. Madalynne Obenchain were indicted for the crime. Burch was tried three times to disagreements. Mrs. Obenchain was recently freed when the district attorney dismissed the murder indictment. Burch was held for an in- sanity hearing on the petition of his attorney, Paul W. Schenck. ‘WILL CONSIDER LAWS.

That permits a saving, in- creased efficiency and more logical arrangement. After all there are only ! two problems in extension work, (1) | what you are going to teach, and (2) |how you are golng to teach it. So |two new divisions have been set to | work: (1) the division of program, jand (2) the division of methods. Pro- |gram decides what to teach and imethod decides how to teach. The extension work of the depart- ment has to do with administration !of the Smith-Lever funds which now {amount to many millions of dollars .a year. These funds must be matched | by the states for employment of coun- | ty agents, home demonstration agents and boys' and girls' club agents. There are now about 4.000 persons { employed in this co-operative manner. all of them doing extension teaching. | Of this number 2,100 are man agents working directly with the farmers and located permanently in the coun- ities; 800 are women working in the {nomes and 200 are either’ men or! women working with the boys and! | DELEGATES TO CENTRAL AMERICAN CONFERENCE WHO -WERE ENTERTAINED AT LUNCHEON YESTERDAY BY UNDERSECRETARY OF STATE PHILLIPS PRESIDENT T0 ATTEND ' KELEHER ESCAPES | SESSION OF RED CROSS| - SENTENCE TOAL Will Call Board Meeting to Order‘ on Wednesday and May {Maryland Judges Reduce Deliver Address.

Bureaus will not be affected at all except those which it is planned to do away with through reallocation of their work. These are the states {relations service and the division of publications. Instead, the states relation service will be set up the office of director of extension work, and instead of the division of publications all editorial and press information work will go directly into the office of the secre- tary, who is asking for a chief editor to head up this work. He is not ask- ing for any new salary for this new official, but proposes to pay him out of the savings he expects to make. In the states relations service is the office of home economics, which does research work and might have regulatory duties. It is now a sub- office, while really it is subject mat- ter for a bureau. Secretary Wallace proposes that it shall be made & bu- reau, and has asked the approval of Congress. In his report he says: “In the budget submitted for the com- ing fiscal year congressional authority is asked to create a bureau of home economics as one of the sclentific bu- reaus of the department. The work in home economics was established in con- nection with the states relations serv- ice, and its development has been largely for the purpose of furnishing information and assistance to extension workers.

Particular attention has been given to the purchasing work of the depart- ment.

By reorganization and extension of the powers of the department board of awards, competition has been widened on supplies and equip- ment bought.

A revision of all the mailing lists | of the department conducted with the assistance of .the United States bureau of efficiency resulted in elim- ination of more than 100,000 names and addresses. One list of §,000 names was discontinued altogether, saving 344,000 government bulletins a year, or an annual expenditure of more than $7,000. b The addressing and duplicating work for all the bureaus has been consolidated with a reduction in per- sonnel and the release of $20,000 worth of machinery to the general supply committee, and the paper wastage has been reduced 75 per cent.
