DANVILLE, Va., September 19.— Joseph Williams, alleged bank robber, whose trial at Halifax was due to start today, made an attempt this morning to escape the city jail. He with Riley King, quartered in the same cell block, are alleged to have sawed through three different sets of bars and were surprised mak- ing their way out of the kitchen door into the jail yard at 5:30 o'clock this morning. A bread boy carrying food to the 1ail found Williams and Riley hold- ing the colored kitchen staff at the point of butcher knives. City Jailer Harper Chandler, warned of the situ- ation, trained his revolver on the two men, while an alarm was_tele- phoned to police headquarters. Police quickly swarmed around the jail and the two men surrendered without further trouble. King assumed all blame for the bar cutting and said that the work had been going on for the past three weeks. Williams, strapped in a leather harness, chained and man- acled, was taken two hours later | by Sheriff Addison Tune of Hali- fax to his trial. i Deaths.’ ‘h:wun DORIS E. On Friday.

Twelfth hole, 199 yards, par 3— McLean made another grand recov- ery to save a half in threes. The Scot's tee shot drifted to the left, into the rough and behind the mounds which half-circled the green.

Thirteenth hole, 539 yards, par five: Fischer was in trouble most of the way, hooking his tee shot into heavy | rough. He used his dynamiter, but knocked the ball into the bank of a trap, from where he was obliged to: play a safety shot to the fairway.

From there Johnny tried a mashie shot, but hit it poorly and the ball stopped 12 feet from the cup. He missed the putt | by 6 inches, leaving McLean a partial | stymie, but the Scot negotiated it, | from € feet, for his four. This squared | the match. McLean’s drive bounced | to the top of a low bunker, but he had & good lie and knocked a niblick shot to the front edge of the green. Fifteeth hole, 457 yards, par 4—Mc- | Lean had a slight advantage on their | drives for the first time. Pischer hit | a long, high wood shot that dropped among spectators to the left of the | green, while McLean's approach with | the wood was 40 yards short. Both chipped nicely, but Fischer from 8 feet laid his opponent a dead stymie with a putt that stopped an inch short. The Scot wasted no time de- ciding to play safe, putting a foot wide for the half in 5s. Sixteenth hole, 402 yards, par 4: McLean's drive caught a trap to the left, 160 yards from the green, while Fischer belted his tee shot 290 yards down the middle. The Scot made a great mashie shot from the sand to the green, the ball stop- ping 18 feet from the cup. Johnny's niblick rolled 12 feet past the cup and each two-putted for 4s. Fischer was partially stymied by his rivals approach putt. Seventeenth hole, 438 yards, par 5: McLear? went into the lead for the first time, with a birdie 4, to Fischer's 6. The Scot drove 250 yards, played an iron second 20 yards short of the green, chipped on and was conceded his 6-footer.

He barely budged the ball with his first shot, then knocked it about 30 yards into the rough. He chipped on 5 feet from the hole and picked up. Eighteenth hole, 166 yards, par 3: McLean increased his lead to 2 up, canning a nice 9-footer for a birdie 2 despite a smudge of mud on the ball.

Ey the Associated Press. A sharp increase in Canadian farm | products imported by the United States in July compared with the same month last year, while farm | products of this country exported to Canada were nearly the same for the ' two periods. was reported today by the Agriculture Department. | The study showed that both exports | and imports of non-agricultural com- modities increased in July complred with the previous year. Imports of Canadian farm products by this country in July were valued | at $9,835000, an increase of $4.978,- 000 over July, 1935, or 102 per cent. Exports of farm products by this | country to Canada were $4,016.000 in | July, an increase of $14,000 over 1935, or three-tenths of 1 per cent. Canadian non-agricultural exports to this country for the month were $20,880.000, a gain of $2,011,000 above | the 1935 total, or 11 per cent. He blasted out, hit a mid- | ucts exported by this country to | Canada also showed a gain. They | were $25,945.000, or $2.823,000 more | than for 1935, an increase of 12 per | | cent. Commenting on the failure of | American farm exports to increase | along with non-agricultural products, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics | said drought losses had caused an up- | werd movement of prices of these goods in this country that impeded | exports and encouraged a flow of | Canadian products. | It said exports of American farm | produce on which Canada had re- | duced duty under the reciprocal trade | agreement had gained $691,000, or 48 | per cent, but this was mostly offset by & decline in exports on which the duty | was unchanged of $667,000, or 27 per cent. Breaking the Canadian farm ex- ports into the same classes, the study showed a gain of $842,000 or 235 per cent for the reduced duty products and $4.136,000 or 92 per cent for the others. | to show these totals for the two - | countries: Exports by Cana All commodities, $190,554,000, ar increase of $36,884,000 or 24 per cent above the same months of 1935. Non-agriculture products $144.- 765,000, an increase of $24,848,000 or 21 per cent. increase of $12,036,000 or 36 per cent, Exports by United States: All commodities exported $204,- or 15 per cent.

COLMERY IS SEEN NEWLEGION HEAD Believed to Have Edge for Murphy’s Post—Sessions Open Monday. By (e Associated Press. CLEVELAND, September 19.—Spec- ulation on who would be elected the American Legion's next commander was well under way today as delegates | from all sections of the United States converged upon Cleveland for the or- ganization’s eighteenth national con- vention, opening Monday. Conferences incident to election of & national commander brought forth suggestions that the contest probably rested between Harry W. Colmery of ‘Topeka, Kans., and Quimby Melton of Georgia. Legion officials, who declined to be quoted, believed that Colmery had the edge for the position now held by Ray Murphy, the 6-foot former Iowa State University athlete. Colmery played shortstop for the Oberlin (Ohio) Col- legeabl.u ball team in 1911, 1912 and 1913, Auxiliary President. successor to Mrs. Melville Muckle- | stone of Chicago as national president. Mrs. O. W. Hahn of Lincoln, Nebr., is slated for the job, auxiliary officials said today. Convention headquarters announced, meanwhile, that a spirited contest was in prospect for selection of a 1937 convention city., Los Angeles, New York, Denver, Detroit and Mon- treal are after the meeting. Los Angeles has been in the field for several years and New York tried to get the 1936 gathering. The fact that Detroit was convention host in 1931 lessens its chances, officials s1d. Five hundred and sixty-eight pieces of legislation were before the Reso- lutions Assignment Committee tocay, | of which probably about 50 will reach the convention floor next week. Most of these will have to do with rehabil:- tation, and many seek clarification of legislation already passed. Three-Point Program. Indications today were that the convention will concentrate or. a three-point program of national | defense, neutrality and universal service. The national defense legislation is | litule changed from similar legisiation | voted last year. The universal service | idea is removing the profits from war. Also expected to receive some attention is safe automobile driving. While the convention sessions do \ not open untili Monday National | Comdr.

Bv tre Assoctated Press. OMAHA, September 19.—Avowedly against his will but with expressed confidence that he would win, the veteran Nebraska independent Re- publican United States Senator George W. Norris opened a campaign today for re-election over Democratic and Republican opponents in November. Emerging last night from a Sume- mer’s retiremtnt at his Wisconsin va- cation home, he esserted in a radio address that “the re-election of Presi- dent Roosevelt is an absolute necessity if we are to save our country from the dangers of bolshevism and from ulti= mate dictatorship.” Senator Norris decl:ed to seek patiently. Finally Mrs. Landon phoned the capitol and suggested to Miss Kath- | ryn Ford of Chicago and State Sen- | | ator J. Kenneth Bradley of Connecti- | | cut, Young Republican leaders, that | both men and women come to the { mansion “for tea.” Both groups acquiesced. But the | | household staff had not prepared re- | freshments for 100 extra men. So| | the word was passed quietly around | “No tea and cookies for the men.” Shortly afterward Gov. Landon ar- rived. GOLD CONTRACT UPHELD BY COURT | Metal or Its Equivalent Must Be Paid, Kansas City Judge Rules. By the Associated Press. KANSAS CITY, September 19— Federal Judge Merrill E. Otis, ruled today that the Emery Bird Thayer Dry Goods Co., of Kansas City, must | pay the Boston Ground Rent Trust. | $10.158.75 quarterly ground rent under a clause of a 99-year lease stipulating quarterly payment of 139,320 grains of gold. Evidence was presented that the rent was paid by checks, each for $6.000, until devaluation of the dollar by President Roosevelt. The lease was executed April 11, 1890. “We do not suppose.” District Judge Otis’ memorandum opinion said, “that in days of old a debt of 50 golden guineas would have been discharged by a payment on 25 because, if 50 were paid, the lord of the manor | would have exacted 25." Judge Otis held that when, by operation of law, it became impossible for the dry goods company to deliver gold, it became its duty to deliver “lawful currency of the United States"” in an amount equivalent in value to | the amount of gold specified in the lease or “give up possession” of the | property. Tnjunction Had Been Sought. The dry goods compaoy had sought to enjoin the Boston Trust from at- | tempting to collect more than $6.000 \ in United States currency as quarterly | rent, contending that the Government would pay no more than that for the stipulated amount of gold. Testimony disclosed that the dry | goods company made quarterly reat payments of $10.158.75 from January | 1, 1934, until January 1, 1935, and then demanded that the lessors re- ' |turn $20,793.75, which it contended | were excess payments. | | The lessors refused and, as a final | step, demanded delivery of actual gold, offering to accept it in England. | “Any statute or regulation which ' purports to compel the lawful pos- | sessor of gold bullion (or any other | | | | o iwas rej property) to surrender it to the sov- | ter. Miss Adlumia Dent Sterrett: ereign for anything less than just | compensation is clearly void and with- | out effect,” Judge Otis’ opinion said. “A’s obligation to deliver a stmu-‘ lated quantity of gold to B certainly | is not satisfied by the delivery of one- | half that quantity merely because, if | the whole quantity were delivered, the sovereign, without right, would seize half of it. | Horseshoe Won't Serve as Horse. | “We do not suppose that in days | of old a debt to a tenant of 50 golden | { guineas would have been discharged | by a payment of 25 because, if 50 were paid, the lord of the manor | would have exacted 25. ““We do not suppose that if a Missouri | ! farmer is bound by his contract to| deliver a horse to his neighbor he car fulfill his obligation by delivering a norseshoe on the theory that if he did | deliver & horse Robin Hood would steal | it, leaving a horseshoe as a souvenir. | “Compensation by one party to an- | | other party for failure to deliver a | | given quantity of gold agreed to nc‘ delivered in a contract between the parties certainly is to be measured the true value of the gold and not by | a fictitious, artificial value.” Attorneys for the dry goods company | said they had not decided on their next ' steps.

Sees Race With Simmens. Norris said in an interview he be- lieved the race would be between him- self and Robert G. Simmons of Lin- | coln, Republican nominee, Referring to the Democratic nominee, Terry Carpenler of Scottsbluff, he said, I believe Carpenter will be a help to S)rrmom and that a vote for Carpenter will be at least a half vote for Sim- mons,” he said. “But I'm not finding fault or complaining.” In his address last night he de- scribed anti-New Deal references to the Roosevelt administration in con=- nection with bolshevism and dictator- ship as “bogus.” “ridiculous” and “foolish.” He said: “If we have a contented agriculture, if those who labor are habpy and pros= if those who toil get a fair their labors, if | farms of our country ere given the | modern advantages of modern times, | including the blessings of Plor(nmh. then the dangers of communism and dictatorship do disappear and fad~ away as the dews of hr'\ en vanisi before the morning sun.” Hits Landon “Generalities.® He assailed what he called “mean- ingless generalities” in Gov. Alf M of his presidential campaign, adding, “H: (Landon) has lacked either the candor or the courage to take of the meas- ures which make up the New Deal and tell the people wherein they are wronz and what he would put in place of them if he is elected.” To newspaper men Norris said® “As a candidate, I would. of course, rather be elected than defeated, but if neces- sary I would put my own campaign aside to wvrk for President Roosevelt.
