In Sympathy With Proposal When Dawes Plan in Operation WASHINGTON, Aug. 16—Informal advances and inquiries made by the United States indicates that the other world powers are in complete sympathy with the proposal for a new international armament conference once the Dawes reparations plan is in operation, it was learned authoritatively here today. This was one of the questions which Secretary of State Hughes discussed with the prime ministers of Europe during his recently completed tour of England and the continent. On every side he is said to have received assurances that Great Britain, France and other nations will willingly offer their co-operation and assistance whenever ever the United States decides that the time is ripe for a new effort to limit the world naval, military and aerial armament. Japan, likewise, is said to be ready to come in, thus assuring a conference as large, if not more comprehensive, than the first Washington conference, which laid the groundwork for the new undertaking. The well defined is this feeling government circles that a definite time for sending out the formal invitations to the new conference is being discussed. President Coolidge desires, according to the understanding here, to call the conference this fall, probably in October. This would mean that the conference could assemble here in the winter, possibly December or January, or it could be held over until the spring of 1825, while the powers made up the program of questions they intend discussing. In connection with the agenda it was pointed out today that the restoration of more stable relations between France and Germany may make it possible for the question of land armaments to be discussed and an agreement reached for limitation. PLACENTIA BOY HIT BY FREIGHT Carl Harris, 19, was seriously injured at 7 a.m. today when his auto was struck by a freight train at the packinghouse crossing in Placentia. He was carried 100 feet by the train and suffered fracture of the skull and many HOT ATTACK ON ALIENIST FOR STATE CRIMINAL COURT, CHICAGO. Aug. 16.—Two hours of hectic sometimes almost furious wrangling today between lawyers and alienists in the Leopold-Loeb trial failed to produce any outstanding result except that Dr. H. Douglas Singer, third of the state's alienists, pronounced Nathan F. Leopold, Jr., and Richard A. Loeb to be free from mental disease, without any extensive oral or physical examinations of the collegians. Dr. Singer freely admitted that his conclusions were based on (1) Seeing the young slayers in the state's attorney's office on June 2) Observation of them in court curing the month of this trial and (2) Consideration of the basic undisputed facts contained in the report of the defense alienists, Dr. Hulbert and Dr. Bownan. CRIMINAL COURT, CHICAGO, Aug. 16.—A ripping, slashing attack on the testimony of Dr. H. D. Singer of the state's alienists, who pronounced Richard Loeb and Nathan Leopold mentally sound just from observing them in court and studying their history, was made in Judge Caverly's court today by the defense lawyers who are trying to save the young collegians from the gallows. Clarence Darrow, chief of the defense counsel, put Dr. Singer thru the grilling. He brot out that Dr. Singer had come to this country from England only 20 years ago and in the time he has held many public positions, including that of "state alienist" in Illinois. Darrow said this was a political appointment, but Dr. Singer denied it. Just before Darrow started his sardonic questioning of the tall alienist, he expected leave to put into the record of the Loeb-Leopold case a certified copy of all the penalties imposed for first degree murder in Cook county in the last ten years where there were pleas of guilty entered, together with the acre of ours.

Anaheim shipped 80 cars during the six days ending today and Fullerton approximately 85. Placentia shipped 63, not a great way below its peak. Olive shipments were of somewhat at 20 cars.

The orange shipments last week amounted to a little more than 80 cars. SWING GREETED BY LARGE CROWD Another big crowd greeted Congressman Phil D. Swing at the Fullerton city park last night, when following the band concert, the south's representative delivered one of his live speeches in support of his candidacy and the Boulder Jam Canyon project. Swing announced a caravan of 500 cars Monday thru Imperial Valley northward to San Diego, where a big parade will take place in his interest. Many of the stores in towns along the way have declared a holiday in order that the owners and employees may participate in the event.

On an anonymous telephone tip police today went to a room in a local hotel and there found a man known as Frank Brown seriously wounded. He was rushed to the Central Emergency Hospital where he lapsed into unconsciousness with it making a statement. Police learned the man had been taken to the hotel in a taxi cab but have been unable to ascertain the manner in which he was wounded. At the time he was found they were searching for a bandit who was wounded in an attempted holdup of the Sushine Garage in San Mateo. The man found in the hotel here did not tally with the description of the man wanted in San Mateo in several particulars police said. FILIPINOS PURSUE REVOLTING MOROS MANILA, Aug. 16.—Filipino constabulary today started in pursuit of a band of one hundred Moros who revolted and fled into the hills after killing the counsellor to King Cotabato of the Moros. The rebel band is headed by a Moro ex-sergeant of the constabulary and are reported to have entrenched themselves in strong positions in the hills. Darrow said this was a political appointment, but Dr. Singer denied it. Just before Darrow started his sardonic questioning of the tall alienist, he expected leave to put into the record of the Loeb-Leopold case a certified copy of all the penalties imposed for first degree murder in Cook county in the last ten years where there were pleas of guilty entered, together with the ages of the murders. This move was in preparation for Darrow's closing address, when he will contend that never in the history of Cook County have boys of 19 been hanged for murder after pleading guilty and throwing themselves on the mercy of the court. Darrow savagely attacked Dr. Singer for trying to examine Loeb and Leopold in the state's attorney's office after their lawyer had forbidden them to talk to anybody. He accused the alienist in company with the state's attorney's office of violating the constitutional rights of these two boys." Singer denied that he had any such purpose. Crowe objected strenuously to Darrow's questioning along this line. Darrow speedily brot out that Dr. Singer had been unable to extract any information from the boys at the time he had seen them because they answered all questions with "I refuse to answer on the advice of counsel." BODY OF SOCIALIST DEPUTY IS FOUND ROME, Aug. 16.—The body of the Socialist deputy, Matteotti whose kidnapping and disappearance recently threw Italy into political turmoil, was found this afternoon near Crofano, a few miles from Rome.

The pact which is to be ratified August 30, provides elaborate scheme of arbitration in case Germany defaults or evades any of the technical ruling under the Dawes plan.

LONDON, Aug. 16.—The council of fourteen has reached a full agreement with the Germans on evacuation of the Rahr, said a French announcement issued this evening.

A. Francis, pastor of the Orange Baptist church, was selected president of a Kline for Senate club at a dinner served 275 at the K. of P. hall in Orange. Atyr. A. E. Koepsal was elected Secretary of the club and John King treasurer. The gathering was most enthuislastic for Kline and there were several interesting speeches by Francis, Koepsal, Kline and others. The political move to put Orange-co., in the position of breaking faith by violating a 28-year agreement with Riverside has around resentment all over the country. Friends of Kline are enthused over the sentiment that is sweeping his way. It was asserted today that Kline would even carry Huntington Beach, the home district of Supervisor Tom Talbert, candidate who seeks to break the 28-year agreement. Kline headquarters today issued the following: Assemblyman Chester M. Kline of San Jacinto, candidate for State Senator for Riverside, Orange and Imperial counties, was born in Reading, Pa., in 1880. The present Assemblyman graduated from the Reading High School and ambitious to get a better education, secured a position as clerk in a railroad office in Reading, working during the day and at night travelling a distance of 116 miles back and forth, to attend the Neff College of Philadelphia. Notwithstanding the long hours and arduous work, he managed to take a course in newspaper work at the same time, finally securing a position as a reporter on the Reading Telegram. He rose rapidly, going through every department of the news end of a newspaper including city editor. Desiring to broaden his experience he traveled over the western part of Europe in 1905, going to Los Angeles in 1907, where he worked on several newspapers until 1912, when he bought the San Jacinto Register, which he has tremendously improved. In 1917, with a dry plank in his platform, he was elected on the Republican ticket to represent Riverside county in the legislature. Since then he has been re-elected for a total of four terms, each time by bigger majorities due to the fact that Riyadh is there was a second man there or that man Mrs. Martin saw was a private detective hired to watch Mrs. Mora," said Cline. "It's more likely, however, that the man she saw was McCoy." HELEN WILL BEATS MRS. MALLORY WEST SIDE TENNIS CLUE FOREST HILLS, N.Y., Aug. 19.

LONDON, Aug. 16.—Chancellor Marx of Germany notified Premier Herriot of France today that the Germans are ready to sign the reparations protocol this evening. The conference is expected to wind up at 7 o'clock after a planary session. The allied delegates, all wearing silk hats, arrived by 6:30 o'clock this evening at the office of the foreign secretary, for the plenary meeting at which the reparations protocol was to be signed. All were smiling and seemed relieved that their work was in its last stage. LONDON, Aug. 16.—The council of fourteen has reached a full agreement with the Germans on evacuation of the Ruhr, said a French announcement issued this evening. The Germans, it was said, made concessions upon dye stuffs delivery stipulations. Immediately after the meeting Premiers MacDonald and Herriot conferred on the possibility of having a disarmament conference within a few months. Under the protocol to be signed, the French and Belgians agree to evacuate the Ruhr within a year, but it is understood that withdrawal of the troops will be commenced as soon as the Dawes plan is operating. After reading the Germans' message, Premier Herriot said: "I thot so, but I did not expect it to come at such an early hour." It was suggested that the signing be postponed until tomorrow but Premier MacDonald and Chancellor Marx, both of whom are deeply religious, objected to signing on Sunday. The Germans have submitted to French demands with what good grace they could muster. They do not recognize the legality of either occupation. They claim they did not have a fair opportunity in the conference and that they had no alternative but to submit to the demands upon them. Conference experts worked nearly all night drafting final documents for the plenary session this evening. LONDON, Aug. 16.—METHODIST church, is an Odd Fellow, Mason, Shriner and Eastern Star. At the last session of the legislature, Kline, as chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, prevented the passage of "pork barrel" bills, totalling almost fifteen million dollars. Had these bills gone through it would have been necessary to have imposed a direct State tax on every taxpayer in state, and the first one to be imposed in many years. Kline's friends ask that: Does this District of Orange, River, and Imperial Counties want to lose Kline's services in the State Legislature? Can the district afford to lose the commanding position that Kline would immediately assume in the State Senate? Kline's friends say no, and forty Kline clubs in Orange county alone have already been organized. In 1917, with a dry plank, in his platform, he was elected on the Republican ticket to represent Riverside county in the legislature. Since then he has been re-elected for a total of four terms, each time by bigger majorities, due to the fact that Riverside county secured more from the State during Mr. Kline's regime than at any period in the one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history of the county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county one in the history ofthe county oneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneintherhistoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthecountyoneinheristoryofthe countysouthangladeshandindonesiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalaysiaandmalysiainterhistoricalperiodonthecontinentwhereforeigninterestsareimportantforwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwhole countrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwholecountrywithwhole countrywithwhole countrywithWhileCountryWashington,D.C.

TESTED SAME AS FRANKS SLAYERS Woman in Apartments Says She Saw Other Man After Shooting LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16.—"Kid McCoy," said to have been the most merciless battler in pugilism ELEEN WILLS MEATS MRS. MALLORY EXCITED BY NEARNESS OF MARS LOWELL OBSERVATORY, FLAGSTOFF, Ariz., Aug. 16 A little group of American scientists, headed by Dr. W. W. Coblenz, president of Washington, became unusually excited here today. Tonight as the planet Mars begins its final swing which will bring it closer to the earth than it has ever been before, great telescopes will be trained upon the desert's southwest sky. Here at this observatory where Martian observations have been conducted for 30 years and where the "canals" of Mars were first sighted, there is a feeling of intensity, for tonight or sometime before August 23, when the planet gets closest to the earth, new astronomical history may be written. While Mars will still be more than 34,000,000 miles away, Dr. Coblenz said today he was confident something new about the planet will be revealed as it pushes itself nearest in history to the earth. Dr. Coblenz is particularly interested in Mars' heat, which he believes is increasing yearly and his studies during the coming days will deal in part with measurements of the heat rays from the planet and an attempt to determine its mean temperature. The Washington physicist has already reached the conclusion that Mars is warmer than credited. He is working with an extremely delicate, minute instrument of his own development, which he hopes on Aug. 20 or a few days later will give him knowledge which scientists have sought for years. Observations completed within the next ten days are expected to give Dr. Coblenz knowledge of the moon. Woman in Apartments Says She Saw Other Man After Shooting LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16.—"Kid McCoy," said to have been the most merciless battler in pugilism, broke down and wept today when alienists employed by District Attorney Asa Keyes examined him at the city jail. "I'm not getting a fair shake," McCoy protested, as the alienists grouped themselves around him. "Everybody is trying to hull me." The "kid" showed his distress by drawing a silk handkerchief and staunching tears that wailed in his eyes. Then he turned his back on photographers who had their cameras trained on him and the alienists. The alienists, Dr. Victor Parkin, Dr. Louis Weber and Dr. Paul Bowers, began their examination of McCoy, who Keyes said, will be indicted next week on a charge of having murdered Mrs. Teresa Morez, began their task by seeking to draw from him the story of his colorful career. They began by asking him his age and worked slowly along to his history as a boxer and his eight matrimonial adventures. Special attention was given the "kids" own story of his marriages and his affairs with women, the alienists watching for the slightest emotional and nervous reactions to their questions. Following the questioning of McCoy concerning his marriages and his history in the ring, the alienists submitted him to a searching physical examination during which McCoy stripped himself to the waist. The "kid," who was one of the quickest thinkers the boxing game has ever known and who was extremely proud of his powerful physique, was given the same tests to which Nathan Leopold and Richard Lieb, "super-man" slayers of little Robert Franks in Chicago, were submitted. Information that a shot was fired in the apartment occupied by McCoy and Mrs. Mors three days before Mrs. Mors was killed who gave to the police today by other recruiters of the apartment house. Detectives were dispatched to make another search of the room in which Mrs. Mors was killed, in the hope that trace of the shot might be found.

Mors, divorced husband of the dead woman, to District Attorney Keyes. "I want to know where Mora was from Monday noon until Tuesday noon," said Cline. Mrs. Mors was killed early Tuesday morning. In his statement to the district attorney Mors was said to have accounted for his movements and it was this story that Cline ordered his men to check. LOS ANGELES. Aug. 16 — While police said they did not believe her story could be linked with the mystery surrounding the death of Mrs. Teresa Mora, wealthy antique dealer, for whose murder Norman Selby "Kid McCoy" is held in jail here, Mrs. Iva Martin will be summoned Monday for questioning of her version of what took place in the apartment house where Mrs. Mors died Tuesday night. Mrs. Martin resides in an apartment almost directly below that occupied by McCoy and Mrs. Mors under the names of "Mr. and Mrs. N. Shields." "Tuesday night I first heard a woman cry: 'Oh, My God! Don't do that!" Mrs. Martin told police today. "A man's voice made a muffled reply. There was the sound of a scuffle and I heard a woman's voice pleading. Then I heard her say: 'Oh, my God! Don't do that, Oh, this will be terrible!' "A few second later a shot rang out. There was a brief silence and I heard the trump of a body falling on the floor. I jumped out of bed and looked at the clock. It was five minutes at midnight. I was frightened and nervous, so I put out the light and went to the window and listened. "About five minutes passed and then I heard footsteps coming down the stairway. I feel certain there were two persons running down the stairs. Next I heard the footsteps on the concrete walk."
