Plano was arrested vesterday fol- lowing investigation into a complaint made to police by his mother, Mrs. Josephine Plano. Placed upon the stand in court to- day the woman told Judge Dunn her son had been in a quarrelsome frame of mind yesterday. He was engaged in an argument with other members of the family when his mother told him to keep still. Whirling upon her, he struck her flush on the jaw. The woman col- lapsed on the floor. Later when she had regained her strength she noti- fied police of the boy's attack. “This is a fine example you have set in beating your mother,” Judge Dunn sald as he turned to the boy at the close of the trial. “Now I am going to set another example and give you two months in jail to think it over e that it doesn't happen again HEFLIN CONTINUES | ONHIS WILD WAY Again Attacks Catholic Church and Al Smith Washington. Jan. 24 (Pr—Another Heflin broadside has sped {ts boom- ing course at the Alabama, senator's favorite targets—Al Smith and the Catholic church—and into its echo- ing wake the senate hak hurled a challenge to his party men to take him to task for it. Keeping his promise of a few days ago, Heflin gave his subject expan- sive treatment for more than two hours in the aenate yesterday, ele- | vating his verbal guns to throw ex- plosive bursts beyond the New York | governor and his church into the ranks of Alabama and other news- portunity to speak papers and at political opponents in | his &tate. A few specially selected shells were dropped in the senate press galleries, whose dwellers he charged with having given undue prominence to certain of his utter- ances. . That last volley concerned publi- cation of Heflin's recent challenge to his party leader, Senator Robinson of Arkansas, to make his religious tolerance speech in Alabama, and his added declaration that Robinson would be tarred and feathered if he did. The Alabaman explained yes- terday that his statement was made in the heat of debate and that he hadn’t meant it. He said he had intended to strike that part of his speech from the of- ficial record and added that “of course they won't tar and feather Senator Robinson if he goes to Ala- bama.” He offered to accompany his party chief to Montgomery and into Arkansas for a joint debate on the subject. Swinging full tilt into his attack on Governor Smith and the Roman Catholic church, Senator Heflin shouted again his warning that the White House must never shelter a Catholic president, and concluded with this defy: Challenge Issued He challenged the mayor to run for governor in 1930 if he “wants to speak for the people of the state,” and during the night the challenge was accepted by Mr. Gunter. From Montgomery he sent the senator a telegram announcing his candidacy for delegate at large to the National Democratic convention, and chal- lenging Heflin to do likewise. The mayor €aid the gubernatorial race was “too far off" and he pro- posed the earlier test to “give the loyal democrats of Alabama, this op- their views on our efforts to dynamite free speech and free religion out of the con- stitution.” Heflin dwelt at length on a tele- gram from citizens of Anniston, Ala.. asking Senator Robinson to ma a speech there. He sald one of the telegram's signers was a lawyer named Willett, who he declared was attorney for Patrick O'Connor, a Catholic priest who “committed a felony at Anniston.”” Giving the sen- ate details of the case, Heflin charged that the prieet had killed his own child and almost killed the mother, a married woman, and then had fled to Canada. That phase of the speech was re- plied to later by Senator Bruce of | Maryland, who said his information came from Catholic sources. He de- nied that O'Connor was guilty and £aid the priest had fled from Ala- bama because he believed a. fair trial impossible because of Ku Klux Klan domination. OF Al Smith, Heflin said the gov- ernor was “more than a Tammany- ite; he is a wringing wet, a ier. and a Roman Catholic. not he nominated “there is enough to defeat him with- out his being a Catholic but being & Catholie, that ends it.” “Call a conference and have a roll call on that. I challenge you. His reference, was to the recent action of his democratic colleagues in giving a caucus vote of confidence in the leadership of Robinson, whe had rebuked Heflin for his antl- Catholic tirades. Parading. a new string of targets to receive his verbal shot and shell, Heflin attacked the Montgomery Ad- vertiser, which recently editorially declared for Governor Smith. He said that during the World war the “German allies and brewers furnish- ed the money to buy it” and he at- tacked the Birmingham Age-Herald d the Birmingham News as 'whiskey sheets” that were afraid to criticize the Catholic church because of fear of a “boycott.” He attacked also Paul Black, pub- lisher of Newark, Toledo and Pitts- burgh papers, as the “scoundrel’ 'in Pittsburgh who printed an attack on Protestants by the Roman Catholica and then refused to publish as news or advertisement the Protestants’ reply. " The New York. World and Robert Barry, a newspaper corre- spondent, also were assailed. ~ A great portion of his fire was re- served by Heflin for Mayor W. A. Gunter of Montgomery, who has in- vited Senator Robinson to make & speech in the Alabama capital. Hef- lin said the m: r's sister had mar- ried a Roman Catholic, whose sister was Mother Fuperior ~Semple of Mexico, and that Gunter's brother had mvarried the sister of a Catholic priest.
