STATE POLICE GUARD | DIAMOND JAIL TRIP| New Precautions Taken as He Is Lodged in Greene County Cell. By the Associated Fress. CATSKILL, N. Y., May 30.—Jack Diamond, gangster chief, was a prisoner | in the Greene County Jail tonight, the lone occupant of the hospital ward on the third floor. He was hurried here to- | day from an Albany hospital where he had been a patient since an unknown gunman shot him on April 27 as he left an_inn near Cairo. Closely guarded by a detachment of State troopers in charge of Capt. J. M. Keeley of the Troy Barracks, Diamond made the trip in an_automobile. One machine containing State police pre- ceded the car in which sat the gangster, and three others followed in the dash through Hudson Valley hamlets to Cat- skill. In addition to the regular jail guard, two troopers have been added to the day jail patrol and two to the night de- tachment. Others are expected to be added. Flood lights play upon the jail exterior. Diamond was wounded the night of April 27, and for days his physician de- spaired of saving his life. Two days ago a medical examination indicated he could be transferred to Catskill, and At- torney General John J. Bennett, jr., di- rected his removal from the hospital.

His skull was fractured, and a deep ineision was found in the body. Sherift Henry C. Mitchell said Mrs. Cooley's account of her husband's dis- appearance was incoherent. Aside from y that statement, he would give no in- ( timation of what disclosures led to the asTests. ~ sl - THE - SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. MAY 31 1931_PART ONE.

SAMUSHIRO BEACH, Japan, May | 31.—Thomas Ash, jr, American fiyer,| indicated today that he may not at-! tempt & trans-Pacific flight to Puget | Sound, but may content himself with a 2600-mile hop to Dutch Harbor, Alaska. Ash attempted to take off today on 2 4,400-mile flight to Seattle, but the heavily-laden monoplane Pacific would | Em rise from the mile-long runway ere. The flyer immediately directed that his fuel supply be reduced by 20 gallons, but this, he said, may cost him his chance to be the first to span the Pacific in a heavier-than-air machine. “Without those 20 gallons of gaso- line,” he declared, “it will be practically impossible to reach Puget Sound un- | less, by a miracle, I should have a tail wind all the way, and at present I cannot see how I can lighten the load in any other way.” SOVIET TRADE BAN ASKED IN REPORT New York State Chamber Will Hear Recommendations That U. S. End Relations. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, May 30.—Severance of trade relations with Soviet Russia is urged in a report prepared by the Ex- ecutive Committee of the State Cham- ber of Commerce of New York. ‘The report, urging an embargo on Soviet commodities and opposing the export of American industrial equip- ment and extension of technical advice to the Russian government, will be sub- mitted to the chamber June 4 for ap- proval. The teport says: “+ ¢+ It is a matter of common knowledge and denied by none, that the fundamental policy of the Communist party is the promotion of a world revolution. “The constitution of the U. S. 8. R. makes it perfectly clear that the de- struction of existing governments out- side of Russia is the objective.” Commenting on the Soviet five-year plan of industrialization, the commit- tee declares its fruition would subject the foreign trade of all na to un- fair competition. Without_outside as- sistance, the report asserts, Russia could not accomplish its purpose.
