Southland’s Rain Causes Death of Six Persons As Flood Hazards Continue
Rainstorms abated throughout the Southland Thursday night after menacing floods,}two miniature tornadoes and fire had taken the lives of si>j persons.
Flood waters, raging over jienuded foothills in the wake of a three-inch rainfall, brought new hazards to homes of
p prominent film folk in the Malibu canyon area, burned last October by bruth fires.
While no immediate danger was foreseen, state foresters said any additional watt;r would threaten a half dozen costly homes, including those of Warner Baxter, Joan Bennett, and Charlotte Henry.
Three small chUdren were burned to death in an isolated mountain re.sort north of Bishop, Calif, while their mother raced over snow choked roads for help. Their bodies were returned by cog sled.
A lardslide on the Mt. Lowe railway kiiled a workman, smothering him beneath an avalanch* of earth and debris.
Two auto deaths were attributed to rain storms.
Meanwhile other sections cleared off wreckage left by flood waters and the sudden tornado which cut through Orange county, lifting off roofs at Alhambra and Long Beach, and sir. ashing five oil derricks.
The three day downpour caused damage in excess of $100,000.
Snow cloaked the San Bernardino mountains in eight inch drifts.
Interurban electric railway services was suspended in several places with minor damage.
In the Montrose and La Cresenta districts, scores of families made ready to evacuate their homes. Patrols remained on 24-hour duty. Many highways were covered with silt, but debit? basins carried off flood waters with a minimum of damage.

Attorney Is Non-Committal
Barrister Will Talk Again With Convicted Killer In Death House
TRENTON. N. J„ Feb. 13.—(UP) —Samuel Leibowitz. the nation's best known criminal lawyer, cracked Bruno Richard Hauptmann’s nerve today in a one-hour interview that may change the whole line of defense for the convicted murderer of Charles A. Lindberg, Jr.
The attorney came out of the death house of Trenton state prison, a wide smile on his face, and said: “It was a very satisfactory interview. Bruno broke down and cried like a child. I’m going to see him again Sunday.”
Whether Leibowitz got the one thing he wanted—a confession, or at least some additional information about the crime—he would not say.
“Did you get a oonfession?” someone shouted at him as he stood on thc sidewalk outside the
Sleeping Beauty

In Long Coma
CHICAGO. Feb. 13.—(UP)— Patricia Maguire, Oak Park’s “Sleeping Beauty,” tomorrow will begin her fifth year in the strange coma which has baffled medical science.
Patricia, whose case of encephalitis is the longest in medical records, was described tonight by her mother, Mrs. Peter Miley, as “Better than she was a year ago. but showing no striking change."
“Pat has improved this year to the extent of responding when we ask her to raise her finger or thumb,” Mrs. Miley said, “and when I ask her how many girls mama has she will lift two fingers.”
foreign’Blockade Receives Approval
By United Press.
A slightly eiiluted legal blessing was bestowed today by City Attorney Cheseiro of Los Angeles upon the “e cpeditionary adventure” of 136 IiOs Argeles police to patrol state lor ders in a “bum blockade.”
Che sebro’s opinion, sought by Mayor Frank L. Shaw to quell a wrangle in city council over legal aspects of the “bum blockade”, held it was entirely -legal for Los Angeles policemen to perform “border duty, providing they are properly deputized by sheriffs of the respective counties.”
The opinion added, however, that the municipality might incur “liabilities” as a result of extending their functions oeyond city limits.
Meanwhile the blockade was reported functic ning on aU main fronts, with “numerous arrests and imprisonments ” according to Police Chief Jim Davis, on charges erf evading railroad fares, trespassing on railroad pxiperty, and vagrancy.
Che sebro’s report to the city council Parley P. Christensen, former independent candidate for president, who described Chief Davis as “our strutting Mussolini.”

His Nerve Crumbles
.. . Hauptmann interviewed
prison, snow whipping into his face. “No comment,” Leibowitz replied. Mrs. Anna Hauptmann was with him, and she seemed more cheerful than at any time since Gov. Harold G. Hoffman snatched Hauptmann away from death with a 30-day reprieve 28 hours before he was to be executed.
Change in Story Asked Leibowitz, who has saved 112 men from the electric chair, had said that he would not interest himself in Hauptmann’s behalf unless the prisoner changed his story. The lawyer contends one man could not have committed the crime, but he also contends that the defense told “fish stories” on the witness stand at Flemington. It was assumed that Leibowitz would not have agreed to return Sunday unless he had some assurance that Hauptmann was ready to cooperate.
The fateful interview across the bars of cell No. 9 of the death house occurred on the first anniversary of Hauptmann’s conviction. At the time Leibowitz and Hauptmann were talking, it was precisely a year ago—to the day, hour and minute—that the jury was out at Flemington.
Leibowitz said he would not return to New York immediately. He got into an automobile but just before the motor started, he leaned out and said:
“I have this further to say: The alleged statement that Hauptman told me to go ‘plumb to hell’ has been denied by Hauptmann and several guards who overheard the alleged conversation.”
Tonight, Leibowitz’ status in the case was doubtful To get into the prison he had to become a member of the legal staff, but he had reserved the right to withdraw if Hauptmann refused to give him information on which he could petition Justice Thomas W. Trenchard for a new trial.
S. C., Australia Debaters Meet
Non Decision Conclusion Is Reached on Question Of Arms Embargo
Four debaters, representing the University of Melbourne, Australia, and Southern California, last night, fought two hours to a non-decision conclusion of the debate question, resolved: That the nations of the world should agree to prevent the international shipment of arms and munitions.
Affirmative speakers were Trojan James Kirkwood and Martyn Agens, national champion debate pair. Both are Bowen cup winners in extemporaneous speaking contests.
Upholding the negative, and Australia, were Melbourne’s amateur heavyweight pugilist champion, Colin Graham McAuliffe, and intercollegiate hurdles titlist from “down under.” Nevil F. Stuart.

SHANGHAI. Friday. Feb. 14 — (UP)—Purchase by the United States Treasury of 50,000,000 ounces of Chinese silver was viewed in informed financial quarters here today as an effort by the United States to repair the serious economic damage wrought upon this country by the American silver policy.
Qualified observers here were not inclined to regard the transastion, announced by Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr.. as indicative of any Anglo-American agreement to afford China financial support as a means of checkmating the ever-expanding Japanese domination of this rich market.
On the contrary, it is generally believed that the United States is seriously perturbed over the increasing British influence ln Chinese finances.
Financial authorities here share the belief that Great Britain has done her utmost to sabotage the American plan to restore silver to its departed place in the monetary firmament.
One of the most serious blows yet struck at the objectives of the American silver purchase program, it was pointed out, was China’s recent abandonment of the silver standard. That China undertook her momentous monetary . reforms
MEXICO CITY, MEX., Feb. 13. —(UP)—Appointment of Alejandro Gomez Maganda as Mexican consul for Los Angeles was hailed as beginning of a “New Deal” in consular service by speakers at a farewell dinner for the former congressman tonight.
Before a large attendance of liberal politicians and party members, speakers predicted that Maganda’s appointment wiil prove the first of many diplomatic-consular changes which will send abroad representatives "in sympathy with the revolution.”
Maganda leaves for southern California next week.

House in ‘Military Mood*
Marcantonio Flays Attitude Of Legislative Heads In National Policies
WASHINGTON. Feb. 13.—'UP) —A bill proposing expenditure of $70,000,000 to give the Arms’ Air corps “second to none” was introduced in the house today soon after administration forces crushed attempts by a fighting litUe band of rebels to reduce the unprecedented peace-time war department appropriation biU.
Struggling to keep the measure’s total appropriation within limits fixed by President Roosevelt, Democratic leaders whipped party members into line to defeat an amendment by Rep. William Rogers, D., N. H„ which would have swelled the military budget by another $13,000,000.

Kirkwood, speaking first, summed the affairmative plan of offense pointing out that ‘ if we can show that it (prevention of arms and munitions shipments) is a step in the direction of world peace we have established our case.”
He emphasized that the arms export prohibition was only one step in breaking down the structure of world war.
McAuliffe, first Australian speaker, admitted the dangers of munitions traffic, but charged that the affirmative solution of merely prohibiting traffic was inadequate. He advocated nationalizing production of arms and munitions as a means of abolishing br-th international and domestic evils of the traffic.
Agens. second affairmative speaker, approved McAulife’s suggestion for nationalization.
Stuart elaborated on nls colleague’s point, and maintained that “there is a difference” between armament trade and manufacture of the arms. In his rebuttal, later in the evening, Stuart hit continued analogy by the affirmative declaring, “If the speaker will study logic, he wil leam that analogy is nc argument.”

“What feature of American life has attracted yoitr interest most?”
This question was the first put to Colin McAuliffe and Nevil Stuart, the Australian debaters from the University of Melbourne who are travelling around around the world on a goodwiU debating and lecturing tour in an interview conducted yesterday.

PADUCAH. Ky., Feb. 13.-0?)— The great Ohio river ice gorge at Carrsville, Ky., broke late today, the United States engineer's office here reported.
For several miles above, including the stream around Hurricane and Pleds where eight government workers were marooned, ftoes broke loose with a tremendous roar and headed down stream.
At Carrsville it was feared great blocks of ice moving into the narrow bend would create a worse gorge, perhaps damaging the stream.
If this should happen, islands upstream would be threatened by flood from quick-rising water. If the water rises another 10 feet it will hurl ice, some pieces a quarter-mile square, down on the houseboat in midstream 35 miles north of here where the men are icebound.

Southland’s Rain Causes Death of Six Persons As Flood Hazards Continue Rainstorms abated throughout the Southland Thursday night after menacing floods,}two miniature tornadoes and fire had taken the lives of si>j persons. Flood waters, raging over jienuded foothills in the wake of a three-inch rainfall, brought new hazards to homes of p prominent film folk in the Malibu canyon area, burned last October by bruth fires. While no immediate danger was foreseen, state foresters said any additional watt;r would threaten a half dozen costly homes, including those of Warner Baxter, Joan Bennett, and Charlotte Henry. Three small chUdren were burned to death in an isolated mountain re.sort north of Bishop, Calif, while their mother raced over snow choked roads for help. Their bodies were returned by cog sled. A lardslide on the Mt. Lowe railway kiiled a workman, smothering him beneath an avalanch* of earth and debris. Two auto deaths were attributed to rain storms. Meanwhile other sections cleared off wreckage left by flood waters and the sudden tornado which cut through Orange county, lifting off roofs at Alhambra and Long Beach, and sir. ashing five oil derricks. The three day downpour caused damage in excess of $100,000. Snow cloaked the San Bernardino mountains in eight inch drifts. Interurban electric railway services was suspended in several places with minor damage. In the Montrose and La Cresenta districts, scores of families made ready to evacuate their homes. Patrols remained on 24-hour duty. Many highways were covered with silt, but debit? basins carried off flood waters with a minimum of damage.

Attorney Is Non-Committal Barrister Will Talk Again With Convicted Killer In Death House TRENTON. N. J„ Feb. 13.—(UP) —Samuel Leibowitz. the nation's best known criminal lawyer, cracked Bruno Richard Hauptmann’s nerve today in a one-hour interview that may change the whole line of defense for the convicted murderer of Charles A. Lindberg, Jr. The attorney came out of the death house of Trenton state prison, a wide smile on his face, and said: “It was a very satisfactory interview. Bruno broke down and cried like a child. I’m going to see him again Sunday.” Whether Leibowitz got the one thing he wanted—a confession, or at least some additional information about the crime—he would not say. “Did you get a oonfession?” someone shouted at him as he stood on thc sidewalk outside the Sleeping Beauty Remains In Long Coma CHICAGO. Feb. 13.—(UP)— Patricia Maguire, Oak Park’s “Sleeping Beauty,” tomorrow will begin her fifth year in the strange coma which has baffled medical science. Patricia, whose case of encephalitis is the longest in medical records, was described tonight by her mother, Mrs. Peter Miley, as “Better than she was a year ago. but showing no striking change." “Pat has improved this year to the extent of responding when we ask her to raise her finger or thumb,” Mrs. Miley said, “and when I ask her how many girls mama has she will lift two fingers.” foreign’Blockade Receives Approval By United Press. A slightly eiiluted legal blessing was bestowed today by City Attorney Cheseiro of Los Angeles upon the “e cpeditionary adventure” of 136 IiOs Argeles police to patrol state lor ders in a “bum blockade.” Che sebro’s opinion, sought by Mayor Frank L. Shaw to quell a wrangle in city council over legal aspects of the “bum blockade”, held it was entirely -legal for Los Angeles policemen to perform “border duty, providing they are properly deputized by sheriffs of the respective counties.” The opinion added, however, that the municipality might incur “liabilities” as a result of extending their functions oeyond city limits. Meanwhile the blockade was reported functic ning on aU main fronts, with “numerous arrests and imprisonments ” according to Police Chief Jim Davis, on charges erf evading railroad fares, trespassing on railroad pxiperty, and vagrancy.

Hauptmann interviewed prison, snow whipping into his face. “No comment,” Leibowitz replied. Mrs. Anna Hauptmann was with him, and she seemed more cheerful than at any time since Gov. Harold G. Hoffman snatched Hauptmann away from death with a 30-day reprieve 28 hours before he was to be executed. Change in Story Asked Leibowitz, who has saved 112 men from the electric chair, had said that he would not interest himself in Hauptmann’s behalf unless the prisoner changed his story. The lawyer contends one man could not have committed the crime, but he also contends that the defense told “fish stories” on the witness stand at Flemington. It was assumed that Leibowitz would not have agreed to return Sunday unless he had some assurance that Hauptmann was ready to cooperate. The fateful interview across the bars of cell No. 9 of the death house occurred on the first anniversary of Hauptmann’s conviction. At the time Leibowitz and Hauptmann were talking, it was precisely a year ago—to the day, hour and minute—that the jury was out at Flemington. Leibowitz said he would not return to New York immediately. He got into an automobile but just before the motor started, he leaned out and said: “I have this further to say: The alleged statement that Hauptman told me to go ‘plumb to hell’ has been denied by Hauptmann and several guards who overheard the alleged conversation.” Tonight, Leibowitz’ status in the case was doubtful To get into the prison he had to become a member of the legal staff, but he had reserved the right to withdraw if Hauptmann refused to give him information on which he could petition Justice Thomas W. Trenchard for a new trial. S. C., Australia Debaters Meet Non Decision Conclusion Is Reached on Question Of Arms Embargo Four debaters, representing the University of Melbourne, Australia, and Southern California, last night, fought two hours to a non-decision conclusion of the debate question, resolved: That the nations of the world should agree to prevent the international shipment of arms and munitions.

Friday. Feb. 14 — (UP)—Purchase by the United States Treasury of 50,000,000 ounces of Chinese silver was viewed in informed financial quarters here today as an effort by the United States to repair the serious economic damage wrought upon this country by the American silver policy. Qualified observers here were not inclined to regard the transastion, announced by Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr.. as indicative of any Anglo-American agreement to afford China financial support as a means of checkmating the ever-expanding Japanese domination of this rich market. On the contrary, it is generally believed that the United States is seriously perturbed over the increasing British influence ln Chinese finances. Financial authorities here share the belief that Great Britain has done her utmost to sabotage the American plan to restore silver to its departed place in the monetary firmament. One of the most serious blows yet struck at the objectives of the American silver purchase program, it was pointed out, was China’s recent abandonment of the silver standard. That China undertook her momentous monetary . reforms MEXICO CITY, MEX., Feb. 13. —(UP)—Appointment of Alejandro Gomez Maganda as Mexican consul for Los Angeles was hailed as beginning of a “New Deal” in consular service by speakers at a farewell dinner for the former congressman tonight.

Feb. 13.—'UP) —A bill proposing expenditure of $70,000,000 to give the Arms’ Air corps “second to none” was introduced in the house today soon after administration forces crushed attempts by a fighting litUe band of rebels to reduce the unprecedented peace-time war department appropriation biU. Struggling to keep the measure’s total appropriation within limits fixed by President Roosevelt, Democratic leaders whipped party members into line to defeat an amendment by Rep.

Kirkwood, speaking first, summed the affairmative plan of offense pointing out that ‘ if we can show that it (prevention of arms and munitions shipments) is a step in the direction of world peace we have established our case.” He emphasized that the arms export prohibition was only one step in breaking down the structure of world war. McAuliffe, first Australian speaker, admitted the dangers of munitions traffic, but charged that the affirmative solution of merely prohibiting traffic was inadequate. He advocated nationalizing production of arms and munitions as a means of abolishing br-th international and domestic evils of the traffic. Agens. second affairmative speaker, approved McAulife’s suggestion for nationalization. Stuart elaborated on nls colleague’s point, and maintained that “there is a difference” between armament trade and manufacture of the arms. In his rebuttal, later in the evening, Stuart hit continued analogy by the affirmative declaring, “If the speaker will study logic, he wil leam that analogy is nc argument.” previous American position. 3,189 Voters Ask Recall of Mayor I :ommittee.
