Chalk, medical superintendent of the Stockton state hospital, today. The alienist was under direct supervision by the defense, attaining to prove the 17-year-old murderess should be sent to an审刑 and not to prison. When I talked with her Wednesday night she told me of her many intimacies with men and showed no more emotion than if she had been reading a bill of fare in a restaurant," Dr. Clark continued. There was a litter in the courtroom. Judge Harold Laderback threatened to order all spectators to leave. The jazz girl watched the wittness, with a half smile. "Dorothy showed no remorse over her deed," the alienist said. "She said she hadn't worried about anything or considered the consequences." There have been ten or more rains in her life, she said, starting when she was 14 years of age. Some had ever proposed marriage, but she didn't want to get married. She said she had never consider the future or planned for the years ahead. "I asked her why she fainted." "The these lawyers fighting myself themselves annoy me, that's the reason I faint," she replied. The trial doesn't worry me, neither does the murder charge. "I asked her why she swat at when I examined her brakes ago, and why she breathed hard just before she fainted. To each question she said: 'Did I do that I didn't know it.'" Dr. Clark said all insane people believe they are normal. He described cat that of the hundreds at the Stockton institution most them work at some trade or field in an entirely normal man. But somewhere in their mentality there is a quirk which bounds them insane. Wooster Taylor and C. B. Jones newspaper reporters testified regarding Dorothy's fainting spells since the trial opened. Both said they had observed her collapses that were positive they were real. Mrs. Ada Kennedy, assistant matron, give similar testimony. On each occasion she said, Dorothy's body and arms were rigid and her feet extremely roid. Dr. Geo. Ordahl, clinical psychologist at the Sonoma state医院, 10 ALLEGED RADICALS SEIZED LOS ANGELES, April 3—Ten alleged radicals, including four women, were jailed here today following a riot at Labor Temple between Communists and their enemies. The outbreak occurred during an anti-Soviet meeting addressed by Raphael Abramovich who delivered a tirade on the "evils of communism and soviet Russia." The prisoners were charged with disturbing the peace. Twenty-five members of th. radical squad of the police department were present at the meeting and probably prevented further outbreaks. Abramovich, a Russian exile, had been warned before the meeting that he would be killed on the platform if he attempted to deliver his address. More than 1,000 members of the Jewish Socialist verdant jammed the hall. The speaker had barely started his address when the demonstrations began. More than a score of hecklers were ousted from the hall by police. Towards the close of the meeting the demonstrations developed into a free-for-all fight. Women played a prominent part, attacking the officers with their fingernails and hatpins. One of the women arrested was attired in a flaming red sweater, and caused considerable annoyance to officers with her hatpin before she was subdued. The prisoners, according to police, are members of the Communist party, and gathered to prevent Dr. Abramovich's asserted exposes of conditions in Russia under Soviet rule.

AUDITORIUM Four school girls were recovering today from painful burns in celled when their paper dress caught fire during a pageant Santa Ana H. S auditorium. More than 500 spectators at 400 children who participated in the program were thrown into near-panic when the flimsy coat of Virginia Trilekey, 10 became enveloped in flames and spread to the dresses of three other girls. The hall had been thrown darken when a fire burned on someone had struck a mat on the stage. Prompt work teachers and high school students met with the flames. But somewhere in their mentality there is a quirk which bounds them insane. Wooster Taylor and C. B. Jones newspaper reporters testified recording Dorothy's fainting spells since the trial opened. Both said they had observe her collapse that were positive they were real. Mrs. Ada Kennedy, assistant matron, give similar testimony. On each occasion she said, Dorothy's body and arms were rigid and her feet extremely cold. Dr. Geo. Ordahl, clinical psychologist at the Sonoma state home for defectives, also testified for the defense. "I examined Dorothy on March 11, using both Stanford revision of the Blinet-Semon and the Kuhman tests," Dr. Ordahl said. "In cases where persons are of unstable temperament, the Kuhman test reads lower than the Stanford. Dorothy's Stanford test was 110; her Kuhman test was 92." "These tests show the mental age reading, type of mind and existing from normal. I found all her reactions on a perceptual level, she is almost instantaneous in action, without deliberation. On cross-examination, Dr. Ordahl admitted that Dorothy's Stanford test was "very satisfactory." When court recessed at noon Dorothy again walked out without assistance, apparently stronger than when she entered. OIL MEN OFF TO FOREIGN FIELDS Joseph B. Gates, James H.

Herriot finds gun financial downfall before the French people If Herriot has not parliament a capital levy INDIGTMENT OF DOHENYS QUASHED WASHINNGTON, April 3.—All indictments of Albert B. Fall, E. L. Doheny, E. L. Doheny, Jr., and Harry F. Sinclair growing out of the naval oil reserve leases were quashed here today by Justice McCoy of the District of Columbia Supreme Court. McCoy sustained the motion of counsel for the defendants to dismiss the indictments on the ground that they were vilified by the presence of unauthorized persons in the grand jury rom when evidence was being taken. The four indictments dismissed were: Charging Fall with accepting a bribe from Doheny. Charging Doheny and Doheny, Jr., with giving a bribe to Fall. Charging Fall and Doheny with conspiracy to defraud the government in leasing the California oil reserves. Charging Fall and Sinclair with conspiracy to defraud the government in leasing the Teapot Dome reserve. McCoy held that the presence of Oscar Pagan, justice department indictment expert, in the jury room during the taking of testimony, invalidated the indictments. Counsel for the three defendants in moving last February to quash the indictments, contended both Pagan and Peyton Gordon, U. S. district attorney, were illegally present during the taking of testimony. They argued that the law turning over the prosecution of the oil lease cases to special counsel Atlee Pomere and Owen Roberts automatically excluded anyone connected with the department of justice from participating in the prosecution of the cases. They also made the point that the radio speech of Senator Thos J. Walsh of Montana, chief prosecutor of the senate oil investigation, during the sittings of the grand jury returning the indictments was an attempt to influence their decision and the indictments should be quashed also on that ground. The court's action does not affect the indictment of Sinclair for testifying before the senate.

Coontz, fleet commander, and nearly 100 auxiliary craft were to weigh anchor at 1 p.m. Half an hour later, the remainder of the fleet from San Diego was scheduled to join the main squadron off Point Fermin, where the combined Armada forms in Catatalia channel. The grounds of Fort MacArthur were thrown open to the public and furnished advantage ground for 50,000 spectators to view the department naval force. Augmenting the grand review of the naval fleet prior to the sailings, the army staged a colorful air show with flyers from Clover Field at Santa Monica, and Rockwell Field, at San Diego. The air display included formation flying, a sham battle, and aerial stunts. The fleet, after assuming column formation off Point Fermin, will divide into two groups and engage in tactical maneuvers up the coast to San Francisco. The schedule calls for entrance at the Golden Gate shortly after gaybreak. There the ships will anchorm until April 15, when they sail for Honolulu.

W. T. MASON (Written for the United Press) PREMIER HERRIOT of France is facing downfall because, like all of his predecessors since the ending of the World War, he has failed to find a way for France to retain her bank as a first class power without paying for it. Herriot is prevented by sound reasons of economy from printing more paper money, but at the same time French public opinion is opposed to the only way Herriot can raise more real money for government expenses—by increased taxation. France is on the verge of bankruptcy, not because Freddmen cannot pay their way to national greatness, but because the people at large are reluctant to make the necessary sacrifices. The sudden ministerial crisis in Paris is due to an effort of the paper money inflationists to compel Premier Herriot to accept their policy of substituting the stamp of the printing press for old. Herriot has forced his finance minister, Clemental, to resign, rather than follow the road to financial destruction. But at the same time, Herriot has no substitute plan to offer NHis radical supporters are insisting that he introduce a bill for a capital levy, imposing a new tax, not incomes from capital, but on capitalists. The working classes who have no capital to be taxed, favor this plan. Herriot finds gun pointed at him whichever way he faces.

ANK BANDIT FATE OF GAS KILLED AT TAX UP TO EL SEGUNDO COMMISSION EL. SEGUNDO, April 3.—One bandit was shot and killed and other captured by two motorcycle officers today at an unsuccessful attempt to rob the El Señado state bank. Two other bandits escaped. The $100,000 payroll for employees at the local refinery of the Standard Oil Co. had just been posited at the bank. The officers were on duty at the bank expecting the robbery following a tip to the sheriff's office a week ago. The dead bandit was identified Charles Davis, 22. His commission who was captured is Noran Mason, 22. The town marshal and several deputies were on guard and surrevised the bandits with a volley of bullets. Davis died in an ambulance on the way to Los Angeles. He was insolent to the last, but refused to reveal his identity. Mason furnished the officers with the bandit's identity. He told Davis was from Deer Lodge, Montana, and that he came here from St. Louis. Local officers have had four men, including Davis and Mason under surveillance, the last week. The other two bandits escaped another auto. Deputy sheriff from Los Angeles were rushed here and to Long Beach address from which the other two bandits escaped. SACRAMENTO, April 8.—Upon the attitude taken by the state highway commission Monday before the senate committee on revenue and taxation, rests the ultimate fat of the one-cent gasoline tax increase. This was the opinion voiced today by several members of the upper house following the senate's action of yesterday in adopting a resolution "requesting" officers and employees of the commission to attend a meeting of the committee which is considering the gasoline tax measures. If the commission continues its present attitude of passive resistance to the senate's request for its program of expenditures for the next two years, little likelihood is seen of the legislature voting any further monies into the highways treasury. The resolution adopted yesterday had only one dissenting vote. Senator J. M. Innan of Sacramento, shouted a vigorous "no" because the document "requested" rather than "demanded" the appearance of the committee at the meeting Monday night. If the commission fails to accept the invitation, subpoenas may be issued. These members of the senate who sponsored the move to determine the program of construction mapped out by the commission on which it based a request for $20,000,000 for the biepaint hire irresistible in accomplishing their purpose. Clemental Has Resigned and Other Members of Cabinet May Quit PARIS, April 3.—Premier Herriot this afternoon revealed to the radical socialist group of the chamber of deputies that he plans to meet the French financial crisis with a proposal for a long term capital tax levy. The exact extent of the levy, however, he left unclear saying that it would apply "Only on acquired wealth", and would not affect "wealth in formation." Herriot apparently made no definition of the meaning of "wealth in formation" and it was believed that on its definition will rest the real policy of the government. The announcement, however, was the first important step any government has taken towards meeting the financial situation. PARIS, April 3.—Th French cabinet, fall of white his threatened as a result of the financial crisis, was said temporarily today when the chamber of deputies voted unanimously to postpone indefinitely interruptions of the ministry on its financial policy. The vote was an indirect expression of confidence. M. Clementel, minister of finance, already has resigned and the resignation of other members of the cabinet, including Herriot himself, is considered possible, if not probable. President Doumergue today signed a decree appointing Senator Anatole De Monzie to succeed Clementel. Announcement was made that Premier Herriot will speak in the chamber this afternoon and that early next week the government's plan to remedy the financial situation will be introduced. It was learned that before De Monzie accepted appointment as finance minister a compromise was made with Herriot, whereby an embassy will probably be maintained at the vatican. Before today's cabinet meeting, De Monzie and Herriot conferred. Clementel's resignation came during an all night cabinet meeting precipitated by his proposal to increase the circulation of bank notes by two billion francs. The sudden resignation of the minister of finance was the outcome of a long conflict between the senate and chamber of deputies and also a disagreement with Premier Herriot. After-Clementel's plan to issue banknotes without gold backing had met with Herriot's disapproval, the finance minister unexpectedly and without cabinet authorization, made his sensational proposal regarding inflation before Miraculous Escape When S. A. Motorists "Loop the Loop" Miraculous escape from injury Ted Cook, Santa Ana workman, and his small son, when their machine leaned over a small bank, truck the ground forty-five feet instal, then turned a complete liftop and landed upright 60 feet from the highway, last night was being discussed at Santa Ana today. Apparently traveling at high speed, the machine was not armed at Broadway and Burgherd pts., Santa Ana, but went over a two-foot cembankment. In tracing the movements of the car in the plowed field, tracks showed the car did not strike the ground again until it had traveled 45 feet. At that place a hole two feet deep, where the front wheels had landed; was found, and there are no other marks for another 20 feet where reposed the machine in upright position. The top caved in and wheels flattened. Besides receiving severe lars, the two occupants of the car were not hurt. After Clementel's plan to issue banknotes without gold backing had met with Herriot's disapproval, the finance minister unexpectedly and without cabinet authorization, made his sensational proposal regarding inflation before the senate. Herriot, in a finely shaded statement, repudiated Clementel's proposition, though admitting a drastic remedy was needed. In explaining why he resigned, Clementel said today: "I found that I could not longer remain as minister of finance in the present cabinet. I felt myself censured by the words that premier Herriot pronounced before the senate. I definitely defined the character of the issue of notes which we wanted to execute. My idea was to ask the necessary billions of francs from taxes on alcohol and tobacco. I was greatly surprised when on two occasions Premier Herriot intervened. He seemed to blame me for introducing the question of inflation in my speech." Those well informed on the situation said today there was no question but that the entire government soon would resign. The senate was scheduled to continue its financial discussion this morning, but several senators asked postponement because no minister of finance would be present. Senator Renoult, the government spokesman then explained: "I am in a position to announce that a minister—Senator De Mongzie—has been appointed to succeed Clementel and that the new minister will soon be here." The session was then postponed until this afternoon, when De Mongzie will be present.
