MOVE T0 STABILIZE MONEY REPORTED London Hears U. S. Seeks to Launch Plan Before Parley Opens. By the Associated Press. LONDON, May 19.—A newspaper report from New York that the United | States desires to arrange de facto cur- | rency stabilization before the World Economic Conference opens June 12| aroused interest today in financial and official circles { Neither a confirmation nor a denial was forthcoming from government sources | If such an sgreement were reached it would be looked upon here as the result of President Roosevelt's deter-| mination to give the Economic Con- ference a forecful start, coupled with the tariff truce, commentators said, | it would enable the nations to beg their work with something tangible al- ready accomplished toward world re- covery. There was no indication in govern- ment circles today that Britain had been persuaded to join in & stabiliza- tion plan. 1 ISHII HAILS ROOSEVELT. Japanese Statesman Says Conferences Smoothed Way for Trade Parley. SAN FRANCISCO, May 19 (#).—Vis- count Kikujiro Ishii of Japan empha- sized the mutual aspirations of his country and the United States in ef- forts to revive world trade in an ad- dress yesterday before the Common- wealth Club and other civic bodies. The diplomat dwelt on the 78 years | of peace between the two countries pointed out their products are largely complementary rather than competitive in world trade, praised President Roose- Velt for his “friendly and open” recep- tion of economic emissaries of the va- rious nations and forecast smoother sailing for the London Economic Con- ference because of the better under- standing brought about by the Roose- | D velt conferences. Praising the insight of President Roosevelt, Viscount Ishii said the con- ferences already held at Washington had done much to forestall any atmos- phere of suspicion and distrust. 1 “Fortunately,” he asserted. “there are no difficult financial complications be- | tween America and Japan. Neither is | there sharp trade riv We have no war debts to discuss with you.” In other interests than trade, the viscount said, “there has been little | conflict of material interest between | our two countries.” He said Japan had | endeavored to respect American inter- ests “whether in our own country. in | China, Manchuria or Korea.” and had | respected American wishes in the im- migration question. The latter issue. he admitted. had | been “extremely difficult” for Japan, | due to the limited area for the great | population. The party left last night for Wash- | ington, arriving there Monday. | SOVIET TO ACCEPT BID.

It was considered certain Maxim Lit- vinoff, commissar for foreign affairs, will head the Soviet delegation. COMMANDER IS NAMED FOR THE MINNEAPOLIS | Capt. Gordon W.

The young prosecutor’s attorneys promptly filed application for a writ of habeas corpus to obtain his release. They had entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf. Arguments on the writ will be heard Monday. HER Coroner Albert S. Knox, who signed warrants charging Fox with murder, said he believed he had “definite evi- dence” against the young prosecutor, but nothing positive as to any reason for the crime was alleged Killed by “Unknown Poison.” The precise manner in which death was caused remained unknown as well, MAY 19, '1933. health officer, testified in the exam- ining trial that he believed Claiborne Fox, 60, and his wife, Emma, 53, were | killed by an “unknown poison” that |left no trace, and added that it was possible the poison was in gaseous form. The autopsy revealed, he sald, that burns the couple suffered in the fire were not sufficient to have caused their deaths.

That the English common law has | not been modified by the influence of | Roman and Hebralc law in some sec- | tions of this country as it has in others, | is the cause of differences in law en- | forcement, said Charles M. Thomas, | speaking before a mass meeting of the | D‘e‘hx;‘ood Civic Association Wednesday night. He cited instances from English his- tory of 100 years ago, when jury trials | were not granted, and argued for co- | operation in legal defense among the | underprivileged, just as they now buy | industrial life insurance. | Morris Lewis, secretary to Repre- ALL $25 ST.

Pinkett, secretary of the National As- sociation for the Advancement of Col- ored People in Washington, outlined the work of that body as a Vigilance Committee. A meeting was called for May 28 at Fairmount Heights, to consider the same subject by the same speakers.
