EXPERT IDENTIFIES | CAMPBELL'S GUN AS DEATH WEAPON Col. Calvin Goddard Tells Jury Revolver Fired Fatal Bullets in Girl’s Body. OBJECTION OF DEFENSE OVERRULED BY COURT Witness Held Qualified to Point Out “Fingerprints” Made on Slugs. Over objection of the defense, Col. Calvin Goddard, internationally re- nowned ballistics expert, today took the stand in the murder trial of Herbert M. Campbell and declared that two grim-leaden slugs, removed from the body of Mary Baker, had been fired from Campbell's .32 caliber revolver. Goddard, who is director of the sci- entific crime detection laboratory of Northwestern University, brought with him enlarged micro-photographs of the fatal bullets and pointed out distinctive . go-called “fingerprints” that the ex- pert contends could have been left by no other weapon than the blue steel, Spanish-type gun, turned over to au- thorities last Spring by the Arlington County realty dealer. Chief Defense Attorney Charles Henry Smith jumped to his feet in an effort to prevent Col. Goddard from rendering ‘what the lawyer characterized as * personal opinion,” but Justice Jesse C.

CHANCES IN 1932 RACE. DISCOUNTED AT PRESENT Opposition to Presidential Hopes Is Believed Too Formidable. Grundy May Come Back. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN, Staft Correspondent of The Star. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., October 24.— Gifford Pinchot, dry, anti-public utility, anti-machine crusader and Republican nominee for governor, will lose the city of Philadelphia and carry the out- State in the election 10 days hence. Republicans, Liberals and Democrats all admit this to be the case. But they differ widely when they come to estimate by what vote Pinchot will lose Philadelphia, citadel for a more than half a century of the Republican party. They differ just as widely re-| garding Pinchot's probable lead out in| the State. The Republicans—meaning the Pin- shot supporters—insist that John M. Hemphill, the candidate of the Demo- cratic and Liberal parties, will not run more than 125,000 votes ahead of Pin- chot in the city. Some of them say 150,000 grudgingly and when pressed, they add that even if the city is lost to their candidate by 200,000 votes Jus, they have nothing to fear for Pinchot_will roll up a 300,00 to 400,- 000 lead out in State. Another View Taken. The Democrats and the Liberals, sup- porting Hemphill, take a very different view of the situation. They say that Hemphill will roll up a 300,000 to 400,- 000 lead over Pinchot and that Pinchot cannot hope to overcome that lead out in the State. Despite the claims of the Democrats and the Liberals the edge seems to be | today with Mr. Pinchot, but it is a narrow one and might be overcome. The Democrats and a good many of the wets believed, or said they be- lieved, two years ago that Al Smith, the wet Democratic nominee for President, had a chance to carry Penn- sylvania ' against President Hoover. Hoover, however, defeated Smith by a cool million votes. Of course, the situation is vastly different today, with | the Philadelphia Republican organiza- | zation—the Vare outfit gone over to Hemphill, the Demorcats and thous. ands of Republican business men an wets following suit. But Pinchot, has the backing of a great many Democrats out in the State, who_either because they are dry or because they hate the Vare organization or because they have bsen aroused over the utilities issue are out to support| the Republican candidate. Democrats Won in 1882, It is an even 40 years since the Demo- crats elected a governor of Pennsyl- vania. They have only turned the trick twice since the Civil War, and both times because of splits in the Republi- cen party. t Pattison, & Demo- crat, by the way, was the victor on| both those occasions, the first time in! 1882, and the second time in 1890. This victory of a Democratic Gover- nor of Pennsylvania was followed in each case by the election, two yeers later, of a Democratic President of the United States. Some of the Democrats who are predicting the election of | Hemphill already are visualizing the | el,e:czllon of a Democratic President in Hemphill's victory, they say, will be an augury of party success two years hence. Republican leaders are urging the voters to be “regular” this year and | pointing to what happened to the G. O. P. in 1884 and 1892, following elec- tions of Democratic Governors in 1882 and 1890. If President Hoover believes in auguries, certainly he must wish for the election of Pinchot, although a con- troversy is now waging over the ques- tlon of whether e does or does not favor victory for the Republican candi- date for Governor.

Dane Saves Dane; Danes to Celebrate Great Dane’s Deed By the Associated Pres EXCELSIOR, Minn.,, October 24—This is the story of two Danes —George J. Dane and his Great Dane. George went out with his shot- gun and the dog in search of ducks. The Great Dane started a dash across the thin sheet of ice on a small lake. It broke and the dog dropped in. The master dropped his gun and plunged in to rescue his big friend. Soon two Danes were thrashing around in the water, but the would-be rescuer turned out to be the rescued, for a few minvtes later the Great Dane swished to shore, its teeth firmly grsaping George Dane's _collar.

Returning to Washington after an ab- sence of several months, Senator Bing- ham of Connecticut, chairman of the Senat:. Subcommittee on District Ap- propriations, expressed the hope today that the forthcoming investigation of fiscal relations by a Special House Com- | lard German of England and Paul | ment. mittee would develop additional reasons to justify the position taken by the Sen- ate at the last session for a more equitable Pederal contribution. The Senate at the last session advo- cated $12,000,000 as the Federal share toward the appropriation bill for the current year of nearly $45,000,000, but the House stood out for weeks against any increase above the former contri- ution of $9,000,000. In the closing hours of the session the Senate group succeeded in obtaining from the House a compromise raising the Federal share to $9,500,000 for the current year, fol- lowing which the House named the spe- ial committee to study the question rst before the next bill is taken up. While the Senate did not create a! special committee of its own, Senator Bingham, chairman of the regular Sub- committee on Appropriations, has indi- cated that he will continue to study the subject with a view to strengthen- ing the position taken by the Senate. Referring to his recent journey to the Pacific Coast and back, Senator Bing- ham said: Course Not Criticized. “In my travels across the country I did not talk with anyone who felt that the Federal contribution was too large. In fact the general feeling seemed to be a desire on the part of the people for a beautiful National Capital, one in which Americans could take pride. “While expecting the District of Columbia to do its fair share, the position taken by the Senate was not criticized by anyone with whom I talked.” Senator Bingham said he was very much interested in the forthcoming inquiry by the House committee of seven members. He added he was sorry it was not a joint committee. “I hope the report of the House com- mittee will' give additional reasons for justification of the position maintained by the Senate,” Senator Bingham said. Since the adjournment of Congress the Senator has requested the Commis- sioners to compile a report showing in detai] the area and value of property owned by the Federal Government, by (Continued on Page 2, Column 4.)
