The resolution, introduced by Louis Wiley, business manager of the New | ¥ork Tinm said the mail rate reduc- tion bill now before Congress would cut present rates, describad as ranging from $0 to 900 per cent greater than pre-war - gosts, to rates ranging from 50 to 500 per cent greater than pre-war rates. The association is ready to co-operate with the Government in event of pas- sage of the bill, the resolution said, so that the Government will not suffer any Joss in postage rates. In a discussion of radio and newspa- . E. T. McCanna of the Chicago bune, chairman of the association’s fac‘o committee, said the Tribune had recently eliminated entire programs and had not suffered in circulation or ad- wertising Boosts Extra Sales. Walter C. Johnson, general manager of the Chattanoogsa, Tenn., News, said radio broadcasting of prominent news stories had stimulated sales of extra editions. Broadcasting of the Hickman ‘kidnaping case, he said, resulted in greater sales of an extra carrying the story than any other edition issued by paper. Harry Chandler of the Los Angeles Times described delivery of his paper airplane in San Francisco. Senti- ment at the convention, however, seem- ed to indicate that widespread delivery planes is impractical, while airports are located outside the centers of popu- Iation in cities.

He testified that about 9 o'clock on the morning of March 31 Galimore came into the Traf- fic Burcau and said: “Who do you think I got this morning?” “Lost His Quarry.” Brown said that in reply to his ques- tion Galimore explained that he had stopped Mr. Blanton for speeding from 32 to 35 miles an hour on New Hamp- shire avenue. | _In explanation of the various con- | flicting statements, Galimore himself the trial board., corroborating what Inspector Brown had said before him, that he had boen trailing a soeed- ing automobile on the morning in ques- tion, and had momentarily lest sight of it, when a truck cut in in front of | s him.

By the Assoctited Pross MANAGUA, Nicaragua, April 26.—In- tense exitement prevailed along the east coast of Nicaragua today as the Marine base was moved some 150 miles | farther north nearer the scene of rebel operations. Natives and employes who fled from the Pis Pis mining district, in the face of the advance of Rebel Gen. Augustino Sandino, brought with them reports of his depredations as he came eastward from Matagalpa. Tales were told by Nicaraguans arriving .on the coast of murder and plunder by the Insurgents, especially of those who did not sym- pathize with Sandino's objective—driv~ ing the Marines from Niearagua. Brigade headquarters said these tales were exaggerated, scoffed at reports that Sandino had a large and well mounted force and announced the removal of the east coast base from Blueflelds to Puer- | to Cabezss (Brangmans Blufl). H Briton Makes Escape. i Only one forelgner was definitely | known to have escaped before the rebel advance into the mining region. Harry Amphlett, British manager of the La Luz y Los Angeles mine was safe at Puerto Cabezas. The fate of all other forelgners in the region was in doubt, but it was hoped that it might be cleared up some- what with the return of Marine planes sent on a scouting expedition over the region Brigade headquarters said the planes flew over the Pis Pis district, but that a small mechanical difficulty forced one {of them to alight at Jalapa, in Nueva | Segovia. The base from which the planes flew was kepl secret for military | reasons. Interest centered in the' fate of George B. Marshall, assistant manager of La Luz. The customs collector at ;Puerm Cabezas reported to his chief at Managua on Tuesday that Marshall had been slain. The Associated Press cor- | respondent at Bluefislds, which is 80 | miles further from the mining district |than Puerto Cabezas, sent a dispateh | yesterday saying: | © “Assistant Manager Marshall is held | by Gen. Glron, who commands the raiders, All commissary suppHes, mules | and ore were taken. Marshall reports being well treated as long as Giron tays by him. Bonanza Mine Looted. “The Bonanza Mine was looted. An‘ | attempt is being made to work the same by the raiders: it is thought that | Marshall is being held to assist." | Brigade headquarters said it had a! report that Marshall had been captured, | but no report that he had been re- | leased. | The Bluefield dispatch also said that | Pirst Lieut. Tebbs of the Marines ha to retire after making contact with (m rebels, “due to overwhelming oppo- sition.” “He is out again with a larger patrol,” |1t continusd. “All supplies the ‘raiders | couldn't take from both mines and natives were destroyed. The band was made up of Hondurans, Costa Ricans and Nicaraguans and the raiders wege well armed and mounted. The nature of the land makes oparations difficult.” | The Managua brigade headquarters denied that ths Marines were forced to retire and alse that Sandino had 500 |men with him. . They believed that Bandino had net more than 150 men and scant ammunition. Marine and naval officials on the east coast advised brigade heas rters that Gen. Giron with' probabl: men ar- rived in the Pis Pis mining district about the ‘middle of April. Cash, merchan- dise and live stock were seized at La Luz. Gen. Giron then went northward to Bonanza and Neptune mines. Be- fore departing from La Lus. however, he told mine officials he would return in a few days, at which time he would do more damage. Natives and employes fled to the coast. HOOVER AND WATSON STAGE FIERY CONTEST FOR INDIANA VOTE __(Continued from First Page.) | will have a strong effect on the Indiana primary. Carl O. Dennewits, former cditor of the Gary, Ind., Tribune, & representative of the Hoover-for«Presi- dent New York committee, now in In- diana, has reported that Watson lieu- | tenants are passing the word down the line to “talk up" Dawes as an added bait to the voters. Mr. Dennewits in- | verprets this move as disastrous to the Watson strength. - He says: “Senator Watson arrived at Misha- wake yesterday to begin his final frantie stump fight to save his face In northern Indiana. But at the same time his 8t Joseph manager, Wilbur Warner, ad- mitted in an interview that orders had gone out to all Watson workers to ‘talk up' Dawes as additional bait for voters “The effect of this effort to turn the Watson strength to Dawes was imme- diately disastrous. Its effect has been to free a vast number of Republican organization members from e only obligation they assumed-—namely, to give a testimonial vote to a native son. Now they feel themselves free to get aboard the Hoover band wagon." Won Last Primary. Senator Watson won his last primary fight for the senatorial nomination im- pressively, losing only one county, But 100,000 votes were cast for the opponent at the time and during the last jwo years there have been the Republican scandals, with a number of organisation leadors indicted Under the Indiana primary law the winning candidate for the presidential nomination gets the entire delegation, 33 strong. Even though Mr. Hoover wins delogates in a number of the dis- tricts, as it 13 belleved he will, they will, under the law, have to vote f Senator Watson if he carries the wide preference vote. However, If In number of districts Hoover delexates are sucoessful, when it comes timo for Watson to release his delegates it will be impossible for him to transter the Hoover delogates to any other candidate His power over them Ceases as 5000 as he withdraws his own name. ‘The larger the number of delegates the Hoover people can elect in Indiang, even though they do not win the State- wide preforence vote, the better for their oandidate. If there were any- thing like an even division of the dele- sates between the Watson-Dawes eamp, and the Hoover eamp, Senator Watson might have to hesitate a long time bes fore turnipg his delegates loose, Antl-Smithites Soore, Late reports from the Pennsylvania primaries indicate that the anti-Smith fi probably have elected two dele~ @ales al large, The Reed-for-Preaident iendquarters here insist that Senator Reed will have not less than 21 first- choice delogates In the Pennaylvania outnit at Houston.
