A policy of “holding aloof,”| which Would necessitate a navy equa! | to that of ay other country, #o that American sea power could “command the respect and fear of the world.” Daniels said he opposed the idea| of a naval holiday, asserting that to! stop construction for a limited period ‘was like applying a poultice when surgery was required.” } A naval boli y between Great) Britain, Japan and the United States, he declared, would breed suspicion and distrust, and would neither se cure permanent reductions of arma- ments nor contribute to lasting world WHICH ONE OF ’EM DESERTED?)

Hall Tuesday morning Curtis had been tried for murder in the first degree, but the Junge verdict reduced the charge one de- gree and recommended the maximum sentence, A motion for a new trial was denied Saturday. “Altho the sentence’ is not the maximum,” Deputy Prosecutor J. D. Carmody said Tuesday, “Rader will probably serve a longer term than most life-termers, Statistics show that when a minimum is not fixed, most life-termers, by virtue of agita tion in their behalf and executive clemency, serve far less than 15 years.” Testimony during Rader’s trial was to the effect that Mrs. Curtis was infatuated with him. On the day of the tragedy Curtis remon. strated with his wife and she is said to have told him she would leave Rader, but not with Curtis, Curtis, employed by Rader, ap- proached him concerning the matter and a fight ensued in which Rader was knocked down “Get up and fight like a man,” shouted Curtis, and when Rader re- fused, Curtis went about his work Rader, it was alleged, then went to Curtis’ tent, obtained the latter's revolver from Mrs. Curtis and upon being approached by Curtis, who ex claimed: “Don’t you use that gun,” fired threg times Curtin fell, holding Rader by tho logs while, it was testified, Rader fired two more bullets, SHIP WORKER KILLS SELF The coroner's office was notified, Tuesday, that Robert H.
