THE MICHIGAN DAILY Sentenced To Death Fo) Missouri Kidnaping NEW YORK, July 31.-(RP)--James J. Dolan can't make good that prom- ise now. When Mrs. Alice Shiffer Diamond, widow of the notorious "Legs" Dia- mond, was murdered a few weeks ago, Jimmy Dolan said: "I'll get the guys who did this. I'll get 'em." But he never will. They got him first-got him through the back Sun- day night in a Brooklyn beer garden, and then ran away into the night. Dolan, mortally wounded, stag- gered in pursuit, fumbling for his gun. At the curb he fell. Wheril police arrived he was dead. A year ago he was struck down. from behind. That time the weapon, was a. knife. He was in a hospital for weeks. Dolan didn't do much talking about that. A fellow In his business -he was acting as bodyguard te Mrs. Diamond up to the time of her mur- der-has got to expect that sort of thing-a knife in the back, hot lead in the spine. Mrs. Diamond was found murdered in her apartment a short time after she had remarked to friends that she was "getting tired of covering up for a lot of lugs," by which she appa- rently meant that she might start talking, to tie discomfiture of what- ever "lugs" she had in mind. They -goti her first; ands Dolan swore his oath of vengence; and they got him. He was seated with another man in the beer garden when two otherF entered;. Dolan appeared to know them, for he spoke. The men stopped at Dolan's table and a conversation started. It was short-lived. The two men suddenly backed away from the Dolan table. Dolan's back was turned. One of 'them drew a gun. Into that back poured the killer's lead. Secy.

OFFICIALS WORK ON CODE WASHINGTON, July 31.-(AP)-Of- ficials of the recovery administration today were whipping together a final draft of a code for the retail' in- dustry, under which merchants would operate pending its formal consid- eration and approval instead of under President Roosevelt's blanket wage and hour agreement. A premature announcement was given today that all retail stores would be perinitted a 48-hour week instead of the 40-hour week specified in the President's agreement. Later, however; A. D. Whiteside, a deputy administrator, said it had not been determined whether this would affect all stores or only those in the smaller cities. Those smaller stores have con- tended that since they are now work- ing some 60 to 80 hours, cutting to 40, would be financially impossible. Meanwhile Hugh S. Johnson, chief administrator, said the plan to per- mit the retailers to operate tempo- rarily under their own code and use the official "blue eagle" insignia was a not an exemption from the Presi- dent's agreement, but was fulfilling the intent of the agreement to speed up the submission of codes. Johnson emphasized that there would be no big group exemption of any kind, There were numerous requests for details and texts of the retailers code as drafted, but no satisfaction on any such points could be obtained at the industrial administration or from re- tail executives themselves. The orny information forthcoming was that work on the draft still was going on, and that even those par- ticipating . were at a loss to know how the hours, wages and other questions would be settled. Johnson said no modification of the President's general agreement was involved in the action, adding: "You can bet that no group of exemptions will be allowed." State Loan Committee Meets At Union Today The joint legislative committee named to study small loan compan- ies in' the state will hold its first meeting at 3 p. m. today at the Un- ion, according to an announcement made yesterday by Representative Philip C. Pack, representative from Washtenaw County who is on the committee. Other committee members are Q~nf- '7U ~amnrofAdri,n The policy on the part of indus- trial nations of the world under which they loaned large sums to agri- muitural and raw material producing ;ountries, for the purpose of buyinf the lender's manufactured goods anc 'or increasing the production of agri- ultural nations, was and still re-' nains a main cause of world depres- ion, because the lending nations zave so restricted their own imports hat the debtor countries cannot sell: mough either to meet their interest' >ayments or to continue to buy the exports of the manufacturers and .ender.s. This chain of events now throttles )oth types of nations, the producer if crops and raw materials being un- %ble to sell in quantity or at profit- ible prices, while the industrial coun- 'ry finds its valuable export trade lose to ruin, states Dr. Vladimir P. rimoshenko, lecturer in economics at .he University of Michigan, in "World Agriculture and the Depres- sion," a study published this week °y the University Bureau of Business Iesearch. Dr. Timoshenko's previous studies on the inter-relationsinps of agriculture and business and the re- ation of Russia to the world wheat 'roblem have received international attention. Prices of agricultural commodities 'egan to decline early in the period -f prosperity and the first nations to oo off the gold standard were pro- ducers of this class of food stuffs and raw materials, Dr. Timoshenko shows in his analysis of the post-war pe- rio. These nations kept up their pur- chase of manufactured goods only by the large flow of capital in their di- rection from 1924 to 1929. But even in these years,-he states, tariffs quote laws and other restrictions limited the amount of their products which could be sold to industrial and lend- ing nations -to pay the interest on foreign loans and maintain the bal- ance of trade. As early as 1928 this situation had become dangerous for many, he says. The crash dates from the agricul- tural year} 1929-30, wvhen both the volume and value -of *agricultural ex- ports declined suddenly. The fall in prices, already under way, increased rapidly, says Dr. Timoshenko. The "convulsive reaction" on the part of industrial and creditor nations was a sudden cutting off of foreign loans and even more drastic restrictions against agricultural imports. This left the agricultural part of the world with heavy debts, interest payments increased by the fall 'in the price of their goods for export, and with their °reditors refusing to accept such products in the bargain, declares Dr. Timoshenko.. Monetary disturbances came only secondarily to the upset of supply and demand between industrial and agricultural nations, although they rave aggravated matters since, Dr. Timoshenko states. The remedies annot be found merely by raising )rices by inflation or other financial nethods alone, he believes. He sees he scaling down of debts, at least o agricultural and raw material pro- lucing nations, as inevitable, to- ether with a policy of give and take vhich will conform to the economic aws of supply and demand. Stock Market Slums Under NEW YORK, July 31.-(P)-Stock market prices slumped today under quiet but steady liquidation and some renewed short selling by bearish con- tingents that played for the expect- ed "secondary reaction." There was a noticable scarcity of bids and a number of leaders dropped 1 to 6 or more points. The close, despite a late rally, was heavy. Transfers ap- proximated only 3,300,000 shares. The dollar gave up about 10 cents to sterling in early transactions, but got it all back and more. The mar- kets, however, apparently paid little attention to exchange gyrations. Trading was dull throughout. Grains lost the limit at Chicago, but were only moderately lower in the unre- stricted Winnipeg trading. Cotton dropped about $2 a bale at one time' and then rallied moderately, silver improved a little, but other commo- dities were a trifle mixed. Bonds were irregularly lower. Various of the more depressed shares shaded their losses in late dealings, but there was little enthu- siasm for the recovery. Case lost 8 1-2 points, United States Smelting dropped 7 1-2 and Homestake Mining yielded 25. Others off 1 to 5 or more included American Telephone, Santa Fe, Cel- anese, General Motors, United States Steel, American Can, Western Union Bethlehem Steel, New York Central Chrysler, Commercial Solvents, Na- tional Distillers, American Commer- cial Alcohol, Illinois Central, Deere. Southern Pacific, Cerro De Pasco and du Pont. Public On Sidelines Most commission houses were down to around a normal rate of business today and predictions were general that a quieter market could be ex- pected during the next few weeks with price fluctuations much milder than in many past sessions. Today's business was largely professional with the public inclined to hug the side- lines for the moment. Brokers point out that the recent break took away considerable trading enthusiasm as well as profits from the customers who were dealing in symbols rather than in values. Notwithstanding the nervousness of cotton futures, followers of this staple were cheered by the prelimi- nary estimate of the New York Cot- ton Exchange service which placed world consumption of American cot- ton during the 1932-1933 season at approximately 14,132,000 bales. This is the largest consumption since the 1928-1929 season when world spin- ners used 15,226.000 bales of the American product.

It is, at best, a one-sided and special statement of Such seems to be the doctrine which President Monroe declared in 1823." The doctrine, admitting the Amer- ican states to be free and independ- ent, did not then, nor can it now, claim any special right or duty against or from them, Dr. Scott continued. It was directed toward the outside world and asserted a r i g h t to prevent non-American countries from interfering with them contrary to the form and intent of the proclamation. In Theodore Roosevelt's annual message of 1904, he speaks of the Central and South American coun- tries in the language of a. superior to an inferior, according to Dr. Scott. In regard to the content of this message he said, "It is not a con- dition of things that the 13 Ameri- can colonies, which had proclaimed their independence but had not as yet acquired it, would have accepted. Their treaty of alliance with France, which was to procure that independ- ence, was to be on an equal footing. "No nation, it is believed, has here- tofore, without compulsion, subjected uhe properity of its domestic activi- ties to an exterior and superior will, -nd it is probably not an exaggera- ;ion to say that no person, unless a iependent, would accord to any one the right to pass upon personal con- duct in the ways specified in this luotation. Whether we are dealing ith free and independent nations, protectorates or dependent bodies- ?olitic, with persons of one and the ;ame country, or of any foreign na- :ion, the answer to the question pro- pounded by the Institute of Public Affairs of the University of Virginia would seem to be that such a doc- . rine could not be in the best inter- ?st of the country asserting it, and Ghat it should not be necessary, or lesirable, or in the best interests of ,any country, or indeed of any per- son." In a special message in 1905 Theo- dore Roosevelt clarified his stand in regard to the Monroe Doctrine, Dr. Scott said. In looking at the policy here set down, he stated, we are not dealing with Monroe Doctrine but with an alleged corallary of which our President (Theodore) Roosevelt is the acknowledge author. We are lace to face with intervention, and the intervention is ordinarily sup- posed to be in the interest of the intervenor. Were this not so, there would not be so many instances of intervention in the books. In summation of the problem un- der discussion Dr. Scott concluded: "There are three policies of the United States: the first, after the declaration of our independence and before we acquired,-that our rela- tions with the outer world be upon a footing of equality; the second, after the recognition of our inde- pendence, and while we were still as a newcomer in the community of na- 'ons, when we were sure of our fu- ure greatness and power but not .1 its actual possession, 'and when we nsisted upon the law of nations and ts equal application; now we are n the third stage,-the peer of any country and the material superior >f most. In this period, our rela- ;ions are preferably with the large owers and we think in terms cif arge interests. The markets of the United States are too small for our ambitions or for our needs. We think n terms of expansion; we talk in vords of power; and we act as one laving authority. If the policy of ,he United States when we were not a great power differs from that when we have become, in the opinion of many, the greatest, which of the policies is correct? Is it not rather that when we insisted upon equality, upon our rights and. the duties of others under international law, upon justice and its equal and impartial administration as the protection of the weak against the strong? The acceptance of the rule of justice on the part of the powerful is an evid- e n c e that, notwithstanding its strength, it is still penetrated with the ideals of other days, and the evidence of a nobility of nature, alike on the part of the government as of the people; for still it is true, irrespective of time, place or cir- cumstance, that 'justice exalteth a nation.'

Poor 'old Helena, with a' heart of gold underneath, may have to do a Mae West to trap her man, but the only answer is that she's so nuts about him she'll- go the limit to bring him back home. T. W. thinks "All's Well That Ends Well" is a swell show. "Shakespeare got his plot from a Boccaccio 'clever wench' tale," he says, "but hehu- manized it.,Helena is a real woman, and though she may not' be a ro- mantic heroine, she is psychologically correct. Bertram is something sxort of a pure romantic also, but he cer- tainly acts just as virtually any man would act under the circumstances. The play is a combination of the best aspects of the romance and more modern psychologized play." Which means that Helena is plenty hot, but,.she's no ga-ga cutie, either, and even if Bertram is a little -rough on his women now and then, he still knows what it's all about. Maybe this thing won't be so bad after all. NEW WCIPT~b CHAMP Education By Radio Is Topic Of E.J.Coltrane Says Radio Fa s Short or Purpose As Advertising Monopolizes Programs The possibilities of using the radi, as a means of education have beet fully demonstrated, according to Mr Eugene J. Coltrane of the nationa committee on education by radio who spoke yesterday afternoon ar University High School on "Radio a; an Aid in Teaching." There is a group which maintains that one of the prime purposes o: radio is to serve as a medium of education, he said. "According , this school of thought radio is not falling short of its proper use a is existing chiefly as an advertisiw. medium." With the correction of this siu tion in mind, the national committee now has four definite objectives n mind. First, they are working for i improvement of radio progr which are broadcasting into . homes of the American people em 1 clay. Second, they are seekinu in find the place of radio in the xii program of education. Third, they are serving as a clr ing house of information for st cities, and educational institut wvhich desire to use radio in programs of education. And fon:,l't They are taking the offensive ii; empting to develop radio broad ng in the United States on a oundation. The experience with radio in do cation is convincing, Mr. Col? said. It has been used to advar ' n European countries, and in Gh , Wisconsin, and North Carolins is phis country, as well as in numens American city school systems. "The Ohio School of the Air, now 3ompletmng its fifth year of suce s- :ul operation supported by the a and conducted under the auspi -. of the state department of edu:a -ion, has established itself and ha- been able to make consistent pro Tess despite the financial difficultes of the period," he stated. Radio is also useful as a mem of informal education because it i a great instrument for wholesom entertainment, popular culture, and popular information," he said. Mr. Coltrane added that ."r'din is probably destined to play i greatest role in the field of aiu education, since more than 20 si are already using radio in their u grams of extension teaching whi are largely designed for adult poiu- lation." It is easy to understman how a state could readily develop, h concluded, a program of adult ed cation which would reach into e' c home. June Loans For R.F.C.
