The hearing will be exuctly like a t except that since the boys have admitted their guilt, there will be no jury, and the arguments of the state and defense will be pre-| sented to the court only for the pur-| pose of affecting the degree of the | sentence.

The court has four alternatives—a sentence of death, a sentence of life imprisonment, a senteriec of 14 years’ imprisonment, ora sentence | of any number of years over 14. | “The defense will not be allowed | to introduce any {nsanity test!-| mony.” Crowe explained, “because theMaw states that a p'ea of guilty automatically presumes the ‘defend- ant tg be sane.

HERE’S MORE ABOUT GRAIN STARTS ON PAGE 1 democratic nominee for governor. Robinson's tour of the Pacific| Northwest has shown him but one| spot where there is a really prom- ising crop—in the. Walla Walla foothills—and but a few miles away some ranchers are not even going to the expense of cutting the grain, so small is the output. Expenses are not less, despite re- peated stories to that effect, Robin- son adds. Sacks, twine—everything but labor, which cost slightly less than last year, are just as high priced ay before, The influx of workers from California ts given as the cause for lower wages for har: vest hands. Wheat prices soar—Minnesota and several other North Central states are the only ones with good crops. But high prices do not help the farmer when his grain is not yet ready to market, und the old crop is all gone except those amounts held by the banks as security for last year's and the loans of the year before that. SAYS BANKS ARE “LOANED OUT" “Banks are ‘louned out,’” Robin. son declares, “It will be very hard to get any more money as loans for next year-—and if the wheat grower is able to pay interest on this year's receipts he will be deemed a lucky man by more than one neighbor,” The result? Robinson points to all| portionn of the whoat belt, where, he says, wheat ranches are being aban: doned, “This year thore {9 no crop and high prices; next year there will |probably be a largo orop und no prices.
