By the Associated Press. SEATTLE, July 1.—The legal ques- tion of whether Margaret Thulin ‘Waley was obligated to expose her kidnaper Lusband and his accomplice in the George Weyerhasuser case was described today as her chief defense against charges of Lindbergh law vio- lation. John F. Dore, her attorney, raised the point in discussing what consti- tutes “participation” in a crime, par- ticularly as it refers toc a wife, in preparing for Mrs. Waley's trial at ‘Tacoma Friday. “Mere passive assent to the com- mitting of a crime, such as a witness viewing a slaying which he might have prevented but did not, does not make a person legally culpable,” Dore asserted. “Active assent, such as deliberately aiding in a crime, must be proved,” he said. “We contend she had noth- | ing to do with the boy’s abduction and that she ¢id not know enything about | 1t until it was well under way.” Meanwhile, an apartment was found here in which Mrs. Waley and her husband Harmon stayed shortly be- fore the kidnaping on May 24. He is serving a 45-year sentence in Mc- Neil Island after pleading guilty to the $200,000 kidnaping. FARMERS CHALLENGE BANKING MEASURE Senators Asked by Five Organi- zations to Consider Its t Constitutionality. Local representatives of five na- | tional farm organizations yesterday urged the Senate Banking Committee to consider the constitutionality of the administration’s banking bill. | They challenge its constitutionality | on the grounds it contains no limit to the powers delegated the Federal Re- serve Board to “regulate the value of money.” “To make the banking act of 1935 constitutional,” the farm memorial faid, “there must be written into it a mandate clearly defining the limits | within which the Federal Reserve | Board may exercise the powers which the Congress, by this bill, delegates to the board to regulate the value of the dollar.” | The memorial was signed by the American Farm Bureau Federation, | the National Grange, the Nationai| Co-operative Council, the National Co-operative Milk Producers’ Federa- | tion and the Farmers' National Grain Corporation. REWRITING URGED FOR CONSTITUTION, | Amlie Believes U. S. Must Curtail Supreme Court Powers for | New Social Order. | By the Associated Press. | Representative Amlie, progressive. of Wisconsin, the man behind the “third party” conference in Chicago this week, believes the United States must write a new Constitution cur- tailing “veto powers” of the Supreme Court if a “new social order” is to be achieved. i The Wisconsin lawyer, who has be- eome important in “left” political movements, contends the Government. | should be remodeled along lines of the British system. “A new Constitution should be per- missive rather than legislative,” he says, freeing Congress and the execu- tive branches “to deal with problems and emergencies as they arise’—with- out interference of the courts. | In Great Britain, Amlie says, the high court has no power to declare acts of Parliament unconstitutional.

E QUIET!” Rede put his hand suddenly and roughly across Alison’s mouth. “T'll not allow you to say such things!” Alison tore herself free, pushing him away. “I don't care what you say!” she cried. “If you want to run into a trap, I'm not going to, that's all! And you can't make me!” He turned, apologizing, “I don't know what's come over her!” Daphne stood in her bed room door, drawing on her gloves. It's that man.” Lumley?” He looked startled. “Yes.

I've been there this morn- ing.” Alison admitted it proudly. “I suppose it's no good my saying that she's lying about last night—you wouldn’t believe me. But if you want to know, Guy and I are engaged.” Daphne’s tone was sober, almost solemn, as she said aloud, “I tell you, he’s hypnotjzed her!” “So that's it!” He turned to Alison, full of contempt and anger. “All right, my child! It just shows that you're not fit to be left here alone!"” 4 “I tell you, my dear, this is why T | was afraid.” Daphne’s tone was meek. But she had moved to the outer door, was barring it with her body. “Don’t worry.

You tried to make me promise, and you knew all the time.” “I had to keep you quiet,” retorted Daphne. “You held me because I said I'd go for the police.” Alison was danger- ously quiet now. “You've lied to me and you've lied to father! Well, you won't put this one over!” She darted to the telephone, snatched it from its rest. “What're you doing?” Daphne jumped forward, tried to wrest the receiver from her hand, but she held on tight. “I'm going to ring up Scotland Yard!” “Alison!"” Her father joined in now. was on the other side of her. “Put that down at once!” “T won't!"

He pushed her gently down into & chair as Daphne let go. “No! Sit down!” he ordered, as she tried to leap up. “Bob, shall I fetch the maid? Or give her something—sal volatile— wait!” Daphne ran to the door. “No!” Alison’s head dropped on her knees. “Leave me alone!” With a tremendous effort, she checked her sobs, raised her head and spoke with all the earnestness that she could summon, forcing him to listen. “Father! Please do try and under- stand! She’s accused him—Guy—of murder! Don’t you see? If I go away now, don't say anything, they’ll think he did it! Surely even you must see that!” Robert looked up at Daphne. “It might be best!” he muttered. If you give way now, Bob, she'll go on playing up like this the whole time!” “Don’t you see?” Alison wailed, clutching at her father's arm. “Oh, can't you see she wants him to be hanged? He knows too much!” “Wait, Bob. I'll fetch the maid. Leave her to us. We'll get her quiet. Honestly, you're only making worse.” “All right,” he yielded, shrugging his shoulders. She was gone in an instaat, run- ning out to the car. “Pather!” Alison raised a swollen, tear-blotched face. “Won't you please just let me stay at home? I promise I'll do what you want—rest, do any- thing you like—if you'll just leave me behind.” Haggard, nervous and unhappy, he toward the “Oh, please!” she begged. He could not face her, turned away and stooped to pat the little dog. For & second Alison’s eyes measured the distance to the telephone—but he was too near the table, had picked up the box of chocolates and was untying the ribbon shakily. “Father?” She started from her her | chair. He looked at her miserably, the open chocolate box between his hands, the little dog sitting up and begging at his feet. “Father, won't you let me stay?” And he answered hurriedly, shame- facedly, conscious of being unfair, “No—no, really, dear, you must be reasonable—-" Outside, Alison could hear Daphne and the nurse coming—they were at the door— (To be continued.)
