HODVER EN ROUTE T0 SOUTH AMERICA Suiling Through Pacific on U. §. S. Maryland U. 8 8 Maryland, Nov. 20 (®— Steaming southward today at a speed of 15 knots Herbert Hoover was completing plans for his mission of goodwill and understanding to the republics of Latin America. Mr. Hoover has received invila- tions from cvery country of Centre und South Amcrica to extend h goodwill tour so as to include them but it seemed impossible today he could accept them all be time would not permit. There was also another difficulty in that the Maryland, drawing 35 feet and with a heavy load of fuel and supplics, would not be able to come near some ports. Once the Maryland had cleared San Pedro, the president-elect went | into conference with Henry P.| Fletcher, American ambassador to Ttaly and a student of Latin Ameri- can affairs. With his aid, Mr Hoover hoped to able to com- plete his itinerary. Honduras and Guatamala were under considera- tion in addition to Corinto, Nicara- gua, where Mr. Hoover will certain- ly stop. The battleship will be head- | quarters until he journe “ross the Andes from Chile. Christmas | will be spent either in Buenos Aires | or Rio Janeiro. | Mr. Hoover has not yet decided | whether he will stay in Florida be- fore going to Washington for his inauguration. He received invitations from a number of Florida cities and | offers of several homes in Miami and elsewhere. 1 The president-elect has been fav ored with splendid weather since | leaving San Pedro, yesterday. The Maryland was running down the! coast at 15 knots and a slig ground swell as well as the motion of the ship was scarcely preceptible. 8o smooth was the passage that Mr. Hooper might have been sitting in his, office or in his drawing room | at home. Every honor exgept that of the| presidential flag was paid Mr. Hoov- er on his embarkation. The Hoover party boarded the barge of Admiral | William V. Pratt, commander-in-| chief of the United States battlc fleet, at the San Pedro docks. They were carried two miles across the Harbor to the waiting Maryland un der escort of mavy launches which | were filled with cheering officers in full dress. | Rear Admiral Louis M. Nuiton, | commander of the battleship divi- sion, and other ranking naval offi-| cers stood at the gangplank to re-| ceive the president-elect. The guns| of the Maryland and nine other, battleships boomed out a salute of | 21 guns. | On the deck of the battleship the | m:n were lined up at attention. A | fu!l guard saluted as Mr. Hoover pussed. The band gave four ruffles 1 a flourish and a boatswain piped | » president-elect over the side. | Mr and Mrs. Hoover stood on the | quarterdeck as the Maryland moved | from her anchorage. An escort of | naval planes flew overhead and de-| stroyers steamed alongside. LEOPOLD ACCUSED AS ORIGINATOR OF PLOT (Continued from First Page) be his case there need be no defense for the law of the states which makes such a crime if proven, punishable by death. For, he added, what is more horrible than to be trapped in one’s home unable to escape from the crushing smoke and flames. He then implored the jury to give a thought to the death of the two boys whose deaths, he said, 1.eopold knew of before he went to hed on the morning of that disaster. The state took up the life listory of the accused as outlined by Tim while on the stand and Attorney Me- Niff said it was different than the lifc story of many another forcign born or American horn boy. He said that Leopold came from Russia and was able to prosper, under the op- portunities offered in this country He explained that not all of the transactions cntered into by Leo- pold proved successful and added that the Baldwin street building was one of these. The end of that in- vestment he said was the fire which cut off the lives of the two Moynihan children and the criminal, Weiss, Fines and Jail Terms For Liquor Offenders New Haven 20 Py fines and jail sentences in the United States district day, for liquor violators.

Mrs. $mith maintained from the tine of her arrest carly Sunday morning that she had not shot Lewis, despite statements by wit- nesses that she had fired twice, one bullet striking the floor and the other striking Lewis in the back, nd for almost an hour today, Prose- cuting Attorney Woods had court recessed while he went over the sit- uation with the police and state's witnesses. When court reconvened, he nolled the technical charge of breach of the peace against Lemon Smith, Mrs. Luella Layton and Os- car Wood, who were being held as material witness and recommend- ed that Mrs. Swith be bound over to the December term of superior court in $1.000 bonds on the charge of shooting with intent to kill. Attor- rey David L. Nair, defense counsel, waived examination, this course hav- ing been agreed upon in conference with the prosecuting attorney.

Witnesses Changes Story The state's witnesses. who, like the principals, are colored, are -said [to have changed their stories today, {as regards the events leading up to the allcged shooting. The first story was that Lewis had ordered a drink |of liguor and Mrs. Smith had de- {manded that he pay for a previous drink hefore being served another. | She was alleged fo have cursed him 1and threatened fo Kill him just he- for sheoting. Today. however, some jof the witnesses sald there was an | argument over payment for food.

His fraternal affiliations also in- clude membership in Harmony membership in the Junior O. U. A. M. Devout Belieer in Divine Guidance To a rare degree he had learned the art of living as few ever learn it. He believed confidently in an over- ruling Providence and felt with as- surance that “all things worked to- gether for good for those who love God.” This was the basis of his un- conquerable optimism. Nature was to him a daily and un- ending source of pleasure. The blue sky, clouds, the sparkle of the dew drop in the sun and the color of the distant hills gave him constant de- light. He took keen interest in as- tronomy and years ago built a three inch telescope which he used {rc-; quently in the study of the stars. He was probably one of the best posted men in the city on stars. Played Plano at 90 Years In his early years he gave much of his attention to music and played the organ in church in Newark, New Haveh and New Britain. He learned 1o play the piano in his youth and he continued to play it until the time of his death. He loved to play with vigor. He was a lover of little children and they gave him instant and| warm response. I’eople who met him in passing on the street felt well ac- quainted with him because of his warmth and friendlin He lived his life to the full and in the words | of Kipling “he was a friend to all the worl and to use the words of another writer “he went through life as a band of music passes down the street, linging out happiness on every side to all who listen.” Mr. Neumann was a man of un- nsual skill in his work and he put into it the spirit of the true artist and all the sincerity of acter.
