Y., December 12. =—Maintaining his bravado, Harry Al- | lard, youthful gunman who recently confessed and then denied he had mur- dered Mary Baker in Washington, was removed yesterday to the State Prison in Dannemora. Allard had employed every conceivable subterfuge in an effort to evade incar-| ceration in the Dannemora prison, | known in underworld circles as “th Siberia of America.” No other peniten- | tiary in the country requires such rigid cusdpline of inmates.

SMITH Head of Beach Preservation Body Proposes National Utilization of Atlantic and Pacific Shores. | A vast national park system along the Atlantic and Pacific shores was pro- roud today by J. Spencer Smith, pres- ident of the American Shore and Beach Preservation Assoclation. Speaking before members of the Asso- ciation and engineers of the National Research Counsel, he proposed that the waterfront on both coasts, wherever possible, be placed under the supervi- sion of the National Park Service. Beach sites, Mr. Smith said, should be purchased by the States and turned over to the Federal Government for development for the benefit of the peo- pie of all States. “Whereas the mountainous national pal'kl were visited by 3,000,000 people in 1930, the beaches were visited by over 100,000,000,” he said. “I fear the American public will presently no longer have the opportunity of enjoying the| beaches, which are rapidly passing into | private and restricted hands. | “We are only too familiar with in- stances where access to some of the beaches is either prohibited or the con-' ditions so repellant as to make a visit an ordeal.” The board of the association selected | Norfolk, Va., for its 1931 convention. A program for preventing beach ero- sion along the Virginia Shore was dis- cussed. It was decided to urge mml assistance in preventing f\lr'.hfl de- struction. 10 REQUIREMENTS LISTED' FOR IDEAL HUSBANDS Dr. Cornell Says Girls Should Wed Man Who Will Let Her Audit His Finances.
