By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, January 23.— President' Hoover was described last night by his Secretary of War, Patrick J. Hur- | ley, as a precedent setter in leading the Nation through a depression. Addressing the Commercial Club of Chicago, the War Secretary said that in previous hard-time periods it had never been considered the duty of the President to undertake the direction of the Nation’s commerce, industry for jobless. ,“All of these things," Secretary Hur- ley said, “have been done and are now being done by President Hoover.” Hits Concentration of Wealth. From the beginning of the current slump, the Secretary of War added, the President has “continuously fought for the maintenance of the American | standard of living.” ! Discussing the “weaknesses in our economic system,” Secretary Hurley | said “one of these, as it now appears, the hands of a few.” The only amplification of this re- mark was that “the perpetuation of great estates and the stagnation of those estates in the hands of people who did not create them and who do not know how to manage them are elements of weakness.” Hurley admonished, however, that “changes in our economic structur should not be made in times of stress. Praises Hoover, Listing Works. The cabinet member, stopping off here en route to his Oklahoma home, sald the President has “inaugurated a program of Federal construction to stimulate industry and increase em- ployment, stopped immigration, con- ciliated capital and labor, defeated the | dole, mobilized public opinion to care for ~unemployment locally, re-estab- lished American prestige abroad, saved | Germany from catastrophe, directed | the Far Board to take and hold sur- pluses until better markets could be obtained, thereby saving farmers bil- lions of dollars; bolstered up confi- dence in the financial world and stop- ped the onrush of bank failures by organizing privafe bank pool of $500,- 000,000. “I have been told,” Hurley added, “that the President’s proposal to in- crease taxes in these hard times would mean his defeat for re-election. My answer is that the President is far more concerned in the welfare of this| Republic than he is in his own politi- cal future. FUNERAL DRIVERS END CHICAGO WAR Union Lifts Ban Against Private| Cars in Corteges After Veterans Plan to Prosecute Six. By the Associated Press. . CHICAGO, January 23.—Chicago’s ; “funeral war” is over. Officials of the chauffeurs’ union an- nounced the lifting of the edict which| had banned private automobiles from| corteges for 12 days and caused con-| siderable friction, sometimes bordering on violence, at several funerals. The action was announced yesterday after new true bills were reported to have been voted against union officials and members, charging conspiracy to interfere with a funeral. Six men pre-| viously had been named in similar true bills, | Edward Reilly, union president, and W. J. Kerrigan, its secretary, already named in previous true bills, were re-| ported named yesterday with four drivers for alleged conspiracy to inter- fere with the funeral of Edward Riley, a war veteran, on Thursday. | At another funeral conducted yes- terday by the American Legion, union| driven cars were dispensed with and ! the casket was carried on an artillery | caisson lent by the United States Army. | and followed by private cars and mourners on foot. DUAL MURDER DENIED AFTER ‘CONFESSION’| Different Prison, He Says in Quarry Myste By the Associated Press. LIMA, Ohlo, January 23 —Three youths wre questioned yesterday by in- vestigators of the “quarry murders” of a 17-year-old Lima girl and her man companion after one of them confessed the crime and then repudiated his story The victims, Thelma Woods and Earl Truesdale, 21, were clubbed to death while returning home from & dance May 30, 1931. Their hands and feet were bound with wire to rocks and their bodies were tossed in an aban- | doned, water-filled stone quarry at the | edge of this city. The “confession” was given late yes- terday by Lloyd Zeigler, 19, a prisoner at the Mansfield, Ohio, Reformatory. and was repudiated a few hours later. The other two allegedly named by Zeigler as accomplices also denled any part in the crime. County Prosecutor Elmer Botkins said the youth told of finding the girl and Truesdale in an automobile parked near the quarry. Jealousy led the trio to attack the man and during the fight one of them killed him, the con- fession allegedly said. Then the girl, was slain to hide the previous crime, Botkins quoted the prisoner. Zeigler, serving a term for a gasoline station robbery, attempted to explain the con- feasion ' last night by saying he had hoped his story would cause him to be sent to ancther prison.
