Hunt of the second precinct and punishment of the police officials responsible for the alleged frame-up” of Staples. Neither Commissioner Reichelderfer | nor Herbert B. Crosby would comment on the Staples letter, but indications at the District Building today were that the plan announced Saturday for creating a special civillan board to pass cn the grand jury recommenda- tions would be carried out, irrespective of the ultimate decision on the vol- ntary offer to Staples to step out of the picture. The Commissioners, it was said, still feel that neither the Police Department nor any District authorities should have anythirg what- ever to do with the proposed review of the grand jury findings. The statement issued by Hunt's at- torney follows o “After a very careful consideration - of the report of the grand jury, and ihe charges made by it, and a thorough analysis of the authorities in the law, we are satisfied that upon proper ap- plication being made the report of the grand jury will be expunged from the records of the court. e “Hunt feels, however, that in view of the fact that these charges have bet made public, he would not for one mo. ment_attempt to hide behind a tech- nicality such as the expunging of the report but, on the other hand. welcomes a complete and thorongh investigation of these charges as speedily as possible before a duly constituted Trial Board. where the testimony of the witness will be made public. After such a hear- ing before a fair and impartial bod: he is confident that he will be com pletely vindicated bgfore the board and in the eyes of the public of the base- less. malicious and unwarranted charges of the grand jury. Hunt further feels that the expunging of the report at this time would not be a sufficient vindication of his honesty and integrity of 10 years of faithful serv- ice in the Police Department. “Efforts will be made to have the Commissioners commence this trial as speedily as possible, and after such trial is completed, and the public ap- prised of all the facts in the case, he will then seek an expungement of the grand jury report.” Stoll to Fight Critics. Inspector Stoll's challenge to the grand jury to indict him, acccrding to Attorney Quinn. is the opening maneu- ver of the police official “to fight his critics.” Quinn, however, did not dis- close Stoll's other plans. The District Commissioners, Quinn declared, should ask the grand jury whether the witnesses in the Staples case perjured themselves before the grand jury. and if they did. to suggest their indictment. If they didn't, Quinn said, the Commissioners should ask the grand jurors to agree to testify as wit- resses and lay the evidence upon which they base their charges before the pro- posed civilian board Unless the grand jury meets these conditions, Quinn said, the report should be ignored Quinn also suggested that the Dis- trict Commissioners ask the grand jury if the witnesses who are charged with committing perjury before the police | trial board in the Staples casc also gave the same testimony ktefore the grand jury. Should the answer be in the affirmative, he said, the Commis- sioners should return the report to the grand jury with the suggestion that when that body has performed its duty by indicting the perjurious witnesses, recommendations to it by the Commis- sioners might be considered. If the grand jury indicts the alleged perjuri- ous witnesses. he pointed out, it would Temove decision of the case from the selected board to a petit jury, thus| obviating any accusations of a “white- wash."” Holds Up Stoll's Record. “Inspector Stoll has been a member of the Police Department for 37 years,” Quinn declared. “and his record is without a blemish. He does not intend that the grand jury should put him on the defensive, with its sensational generalities. He desires to say to the| grand jury and its advisers that if the purport of its general statement is to impute to him perjury. subornation of perjury or any other crime, he invites them to indict him.” Quinn came into prominence as a de- fender of police officials during the trial two vears ago of Inspector Wil- liam S. Shelbv and Capt. Edward J. Kelly on charges of having bungled the investigation of the Mrs. Virginia Mc- Pherson case. He represented Inspector | Shelby before the special Trial Board which exonerated both officials. The Department of Justice in its in- vestigation of third-cegree cases is ex- pected to have several more ready for presentation to the grand jury before the end of this week. Specail agents of the Bureau of Investigation worked Sun- day and yesterday in an effort to com- plete the second group of cases. Groomes Posts Bond. Five policemen indicted last week on charg:s of assaulting prisoners at the first precinct station will be arraigned before Chief Justics Alfred A. Wheat Friday. Policeman William C. Gtoomes appear- ed at the clerk’s office in the court house today and gave bond of $1000., He was the last of the five officers to ! make bond. The others are Detective James_A. Mostyn and Policemen Wil- liam R. Laflin, Willlam T. Burroughs and George E. Perry. More than two-score complaints re- garding allsged police brutality are still under investigation by the Department of Justice. The offenses are alleged tr Pave taken place in numerous precincts. E. 8. Arnold, head of the receiving “loms for children, said today he tas| given no data to the Justice Investi- ators about reported instances of ili- treatment of children at police stations. Some months zgo, he said. two children complained to their parents that police had mistreated them and the parents told Arnold of the complaints. ~Arnold referred the parents to officials of the precincts involved in the arrests and has heard nothing of them since, he stated. One young complainant alleged that policemen had soaked his clothes in gasoline and threatened to set him on fire. Arnold rointed out that “‘youngsters often have very vivid imeg- inations.” Director J. Edgar Hoover of the Bu- reau of Investigation said today he had | not heard of any charges brought against police by children, “unlesr young men 17 or 18 years old are con- sidered children.” It 1s unlikely that Director Hoover's final report to the grand jury and the District Commissioners wili contain rec- ommendations in connection with police adminictration.

Mr. MacDsnald retorted, “I am glad he gentleman admits that there is a crisis.” The Laborites suffered their first re- verse in trying to block the govern- ment's program, for the speaker ruled that the House was gathered in excep- tional circumstances and could not act according to preczdent. 5 “Why, why?" the Laborites demanded. “Because there are no precedents,” the speaker replied. Then Mr. MacDonald launched his formal declaration for the government and a statement of the national situa- tion. | chief Outlines Situation. “On August 8 a statement reached me that the Bank of England, because of an outflo¥ of deposits and danger to the gold reserve, was considering the possibility of a serious situation having to be met,” Mr. MacDonald said. “By the third week of August fresh credits that had been obtained were practically exhausted and the bank was down again on gold. “The responsibility we had to face was lige & typhoon approaching, and s we could avert it, it would pass ver, leaving widely strewn wreckage behind. “From day'to dey reports, every one gloomier than the other, continued to come in. Prompt Action Necessary. “The government had to act promptly and vigorously, not in relation to parts machines,” said -the prime minister, glowering at Labor ranks opposite him, “but with the promptest possible ac- tion. “Qur trade balance is not favorable and we must be careful lest we be put in the position of paying for our im- ports from capital or by printed paper,” Mr. MacDonald said. “Moreover, the May Committee econ- cmy report became a great interna- tional document. These things caused the present ecrisis.” Premier’s Pay to Be Cut. Mr. MacDonald’s own salary will be cut $5.000 a year under the economy program, he said, and he urged there be no criticism in the campaign of rumors against banks and financial leaders “of the magnificent helpful- ness and good will shown us by the American banks.” Far-reaching negotiations concerning reparations and other international probiems must begin soon, he said, “and i the very best of good will must exist | between America, France and our- selves.” Mr. Henderson began speaking when the prime minister had concluded. He asserted the present government was not a national government and said he and his associates would oppose it as long as it lasted. He is proud, he said, that he has been a leader of the oppo- sition to reduction of the dole. 30-Day Jail Term Waits Moyle for Drunken Driving By the Associated Press.

This year, Thomas Ash, jr., another American, using the same plane, tried to make the flight alone, but could not get into the air. Then came Moyle and Allen. They revamped the ship, changed the pro- pellor and tuned up the motor, waved lsn n(uhandful of friends and headed for eattle, Order Seattle Breakfast. ‘They had plenty of confidence that | they would succeed.

The British boat | was more than seven seconds ahead of | the gun. Prior to the race Wood had re- quested a 45-minute postponement to leak. This was refused by Don. who ex- plained that it would necessitate his taking his boat back to the boat well, emptying its oil tanks and reheating the lubricating oil. Decldes to Show Tricks. Wood pointed out that he had sev- | eral times in past races agreed to post- | ponements requested by foreign chal- | lengers. llt. Wood said, “I made up my mind 1 would show Don & trick or two. We soldered up the spot hurriedly, but one of my mechancis was hauled out of the hull ‘unconscious doing so “I planned the start. I said I would be over that line first if I were a minute ahead of the gun and if Don wanted to follow me that was his business. Every thing went off just as we had plannecd. Don did not discuss the start. His American manager, however, commented that “Gar Wood evidently knows lots of the tricks in the racing game.” Work of raising Miss England 1II, which sank in 20 feet of water 2 miles from the premature start, was started this morn‘ng.

The first time I felt I was terribly far under water and that I was going farther down.

Again I felt myself going down, down, down, and I remember the thought passing through my mind that T'd soon be coming up, up, up. “When my head broke through the water, there was the boat 50 feet ahead of me.

One of the number—a 3-year-old boy, Nelson Pat- tison—still is missing, and it is feared he drowned. Others who were on the dock, which was at the foot of Motor Boat lane, were accounted for. The spectators were thrown into water from 8 to 10 feet deep, and were rescued by patrol boats. A dozen or more required first aid treatment from members of the fire department.

It §s not at all certain, however, that Mexico, if it enters the League, will immediately be elected to the council. Authoritative quarters made it clear last night that the invitation was entirely without any requests or promises of this nature. Coincidentally League's friendly move toward Mexico, it was said on excellent authority that the re- turn of Argentina to full participation in League activities was “assured” for : the next year. This news further encouraged the| delegation to expect greatly increzsed co-operation in League work by Ameri- can states. Hope was expressed that | a similar report might be received re- garding Brazil's intentions, but there has been no indication to that effect. While the Mexican representative at Geneva has maintained the utmost re- serve regarding _yesterday's develop- ments, it was understood that Salvador de Madariaga, the Spanish Ambassador at Washington, played a leading role in_the move to invite Mezico. The suggested entry of Maxico into the League recalled that th> failure to extend an invitation when the organiza- tion was forred was laid to the opposi- tion of Woodrow Wilson and Lord Cecil. The language of the resolution spon-{ sored by the influential powers excitec comment. It was taken as a reproof to those who, at the beginning of the League. declined to invite Mexico. Thus Lord Cecil. in supporting the action, was put in the position of censuring ‘himself. ‘The resolution read: “Considering that Mexico is not men- tioned in the annex to the covenant among the list of nations invited to adhere: and considering that, in all fairness, the League should remedy this omission o contrary to its spirit. the Assembly recognizes that Mexico should be invited to adhere and give the | meague its useful collaboration as it hould have been invited in the begin- ning.” with the | Balkans Flape-Up. A Balkan flare-back from the Hoover war debt plan provided yesterday's ses- sion of the League Councll with fervid |oratory. Premier Venizelos, Gre~ce's | "grand old man,” replied violently and comprehensively to a Bulgarian com- plaint that Greece has suspended with out justification her indemnity pay- ments to Bulgarian emigrants. The debate lasted 3 hours, and at its conclusion the council, turning to the question of the Austro-German customs union, disposed quickly and finally of a controversy that only a few weeks ago was one of the major causes of European uncertainty. In less than three minutes the Coun- cil received The Hague court’s opinion ruling out the customs union project, thanked the court for its work and re- solved that, in view of the fact thi both Austria and Germany have re- nounced the plan, “there no longer is any occasion for the Council further to_pursue this item on its agenda.” The Greco-Bulgarian debate hinged on the Molloff-Caphandaris sagreement, in which Greece undertook to pay Bul-! garian emigrants for property confiscat- ed by Greece. On ratification of the Hoover plan, | Greece announced she would consider the moratorium extended also to her obligations under this agreement. Accordingly, when Bulgaria, in line with the Hoover plan, skipped her July reparations payment, Greece retallated by ignoring the indemnity payments scheduled for July 31. Vladimir Molloff. ‘Bulgarian repre- sentative, who sat opposite M. Venizelos at the end of the horseshoe council table, accused Greece of adopting an attitude of victor toward vanquished in a matter not involving payments due to the Bulgarian government, but to individuals whose property had been confiscated and whose right to indem- nity was entirely unaflected by the | Hoover plan. Venizelos Replies. M. Venizelos heatediy replied that if { Greece ccmtinued her indemnity pay- ments while Bulgaria essaped repara- tions, Bulgaria would be getting more money from Greece than she would if Bulgaria herself had won the war. As to the Hoover plan, M. Venizelos said he was convinced “Mr. Hoover did | | not dream of the repercussion his plan | would have in the Balkans," and cer- | tainly wasn't thinking of Bulgaria { when he announced it. ! | During this debate M. Venizelos drew laughs with his jibes at the arguments of his opponent. An additional and | entirely unexpected laugh was provided |by a girl shorthand reporter who, | brushing past M. Venizelos, spilled flagon of water over his white bear land silk skull cap. | ‘The premier gallantly refused to be innnoved. Wiping the water from his i beard, he calmly went on with his at- Itack on the Bulgarian claim. When the debate finally ended Aris- tide Briand, P’fm%h foreign minister, who is charged with making a report on the subject, requested a few days time. M.
