CONVICTED MEN CONFESS PLOT Extortioners Admit Trying To Blackmail Fortune Heiress New York, July 31 —<U.R) —Two convicted extortioners confessed to a court officer today that they tried to blackmail Doris Duke Cromwell, tobacco fortune heiress. ] The admission was made to a probation officer by Hans Pfluger I and Stephen Delago as they and two other men wore sentenced to prison for trying to extort $5,600 from Mrs. George U. Harris, wife of one of the governors of tho New York stock exchange. Pfluger. “master mind" of the conspiracy, said that shortly before Miss Duke, then known as the richest girl in the world, married James H. R. Cromwell, thev had sent her a threatening letter demanding payment of $25,000. General sessions Judge Morris Koenig sentenced Pfluger to from three to seven years in Ping Sing. At the expiration of his term he will be deported to Germane. Delago was sentenced to r, light term. Dominick Piiotti. the third defendant, received seven and one half years in Sing Sing, while tho fourth. Arthur Ulisse, whose record showed no previous arrests, was given an indeterminate penitentiary sentence. A fifth defendant. Ralph Picarelli, who pleaded guilty, will bo sentenced on Friday. o ARRIVALS Mr. and Mrs. Donovan Bright of Decatur are the parents of a seven and three quarter pounds girl bnby bom at the Adams county memo-

I rial hospital at 7:01 o’clock this : morning. o Restore Benefits To Spanish War Veterans Washington. July 31—(UP) —The senate today passed a bill restoring , al! benefits held by Spanish-Anreri-' , ian war veterans before the economy act of 1933. The bill now goes to the cnesident. The veterans administration estimated the measure would cost $45.581, 132 for the fiscal year 1936 and add approximately 48.000 veterans and dependents to the rolls. o Nazi Campaign On Jews Is Increased Berlin. July 31—(UP)—The Nazi campaign against the news increased in parts of Germany today, with new restrictions and many arrests The Berlin municipality published an ordinance warning jews assuming residence in the capital that they will not receive support from the city's welfare organizations but '| will the turned over to the municipal home for the shelterless and receive only absolute necessities before they are speedily deport'd. «— o PROTEST SENT CONTINUED FROM PAUE ONE of the national policies of the Hitler regime. Some elements would be glad, apparently, to use the flag incident as a convenient peg upon which to hang such action. 3. The thinly veiled dislike of administration officials themselves for the Hitler regime, partly because of German violation of treaty obligations and discrimination against American products and American bondholders. 4. The feeling prevalent In at least some official circles that the flag incident may have served some useful purpose in that it must have called sharply to the attention of, German officialdom the feeling against Germajiy which Berlin’s]

racial and religious policies are engendering in this country. i 5. The conviction, from prelimI inary reports from New York, that ' officials of the German shipping line mere more to blame for the ] incident aboard the liner Bremen than were New York police officials. Police had warned of the danger of permitting hundreds of visitors aboard the Bremen before i the vessel sailed when feeling was running high in New York. The line officials disregarded this warning. 6. Balanced against these feelings is the sincere desire by administration officials for strict observance by this country of all treaty obligations, including that to protect the flags of foreign powers. 7. Equal dislike of al’ communists, particularly the demonstrative I and trouble-making type, and the belief that to condone this incident! would be likely to encourage other] such incidents. The German protest was communicated to Governor Herbert Lehman of New York by Acting Secretary of State William Phillips, ] together with a request for full de-1 tails of the flag incident. Indications were the any reply to Germany must await Lehman's answer. o— Orphan Children To Attend Convention I’ndianapolis. Ind., illy 31. —(UPI —More than 500 orphaned children of Indiana men who served in the world war will participate in the: annual state American Legion con-| vention trara.de here Aug. 26.

polls American Legion convention i corporation, hue announced. o Stockyards At Kansas City Burned Kansas City.
