POLICE SLAYER TO FACE CHAIR Jury Denies Insanity Flea In Returning Death Verdict Michigan City. Ind.. Aug 29 — (U.R> — A slim, sullen North Dakota youth who left the farm for a crime career which ended abruptly when he murdered a state policeman. today faced death in the Indiana state prison electric chair October 21. Late Saturday a 12-man jury returned a first degree murder verdict against Orelle Easton, 25, Valley City, N. D., for the slaying of Indiaua patrolman Bay Dixon, and Judge Ruaseil Smith Immediately pronounced sentence — death by electrocution. Orelle. sullen and tightlipped, bad nothing to say before sentence was passed. The courtroom had been cleared of ail spectators, including Easton's parents, who had stayed with their son throughout the triall. The jury deliberated two hours and eight minutes and reported a blanket verdict of guilty. The defense plea of insanity for the sallow-faced youth was cut down by testimony of a three-man sanity commission, who examined Orelle and found him sane. Orelle previously had claimed that his brother Clarence, 27. had shot Dixon near LaPorte last June as the trooper approached their stalled automobile. The state's star witness testified that Orelle had done the fatal shooting. Clarence was killed and Orelle captured the following day in a farmyard — similar to one from which they had ambitiously set out a lew mouths ago near De Seim. 111., when a posse ran them to ground.

was as follows: h 1. Britain on more than onep occasion has warned Germany of ; the possible consequences of au i attack on Czechoslovakia over the i minorities dispute. The warning i was conveyed by Sir Neville Hend- I erson, ambassador, now here after i being called home from Berlin Saturday to receive secret iustruc- , tions. , 2. Gen. Joseph Vuillemln, chief i of staff of the French air force, 1 informed Field Marshaii Hermann | Goering, Germany's air chief, In < response to Goering's inquiry that Frauce emphatically would carry out the terms of the French- ' Czechoslovak military pact if Ger-! many marched on Czchhoslovakia. | 2. Russia. Roumania and Jugo-! slavia warned Germany, in re- 1 sponse to Germany diplomatic in- j 1 quiries, that they would defend;' Czechoslovakia against auy attack.; This put the Czechoslovak crisis i on a somewhat new basis. It would j indicate that the speech in which j Sir John Simon warned Germany ; Saturday in behalf of the" government was merely a strained ver- j sioa for the public of what actual- j ly had occurred. Sir Neville Henderson was said to have warned Germany not once but on several occasions. As for France and Russia, each is bound to defend Czechoslovakia under a defensive military alliance. As for Roumauia and Jugoslavia. they are Czechoslovakia's partners hi the little entente, and equally pledged to stand by her. ‘ It was reported today that the government would address another warning to Germany tomorrow, byHenderson. pointing out the difficulty Great Britain would have in ; remaining neutral in any conflict that might arise from a German i invasion of Czechoslovakia. It was reported also that Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain might back up this declaration with a personal letter to Adolf Hitler. Chamberlain returned from tbe country this morning and went to his official residence-office at No. 10 Downing street. Vincent Halifax, foreign secretary, returned and went into conference at once with Henderson. Sir John Simon, chancellor of the exchequer, returned to the treasury after his speech in Scotland. Jan Masaryk, Czechoslovak minister, visited the foreign office to discuss week end developments. Stocks In London were quick to stow the alarm over the foreign situation.

STREAMLINING | IS IN INFANCY Planes Are Perfect, But Autos Need Improvement, Expert Says By Ned Russell, , (UP. Staff Correspondent) Cleveland. Aug. 29.— <U.R> —Tho Case School of Applied Science here is doing a lot of blowing—real blowing with strong winds—these j | days in an effort to solve the mysteries of “skin resistance in airplanes aud streamlining of automobiles.” Some day, the school's experts hope, their blowing will result in saving of tremendous amounts of fuel for consumers. It's a scientific wind blowing for a scientific 1 purpose. Dr. John It. Weske, assistant 1 professor of aerodynamics at the school, who operates the wind tunnel —with a $5,000 appartus which produces wind occurring at speeds as great as 100 miles an hour — explained the goals: "We are interested lu skin resistance as it enables us to maintain speed with less horsepower. "We are interested In streamlining of automobiles in so far as it concerns fuel economy at high speeds aud stability on the road.” The "skill resistance” of airplanes is explained as the "friction of the air as it passes over a plane's surface.” Dr. Weske said the actual shapes of planes—streamlining —is so near . perfect now that he is concentrat- , i’.ig ony on “the effect* of smoother, ssffaces.” Streamlining of automobiles, I)r. Weske said, remains a major prob- \ . lent. “We must get the correct body 1 shape so that the car can accommodate passengers, but, in addi-j tion. we must achieve streamlining,’’ lie said. Air Resistance Great The lack of proper streamlining of automobiles, Dr. Weske said, 1 creates "great air resistance” at speeds exceeding 70 miles an hour. The proper shape must be found; to avoid wind annoyance to the driver, thus achieving "stability on 1 the road.” j Dr. Weske's assistants are several Case seniors and graduate; students, specializing in aero-1 nautics. They place model automobiles j and airplanes in the intricate wind 1 tunuel and then use three types of scales — hydrostatic, ordinary balance and spriug scales — to ( weigh the force of the wind. Model streamlined automobiles j are placed on a belt, moving at j the same speed the ground would “move. Model airplanes arc suspended by wires in vhe tunnel. The wind is created by a 75- j horsepower electric power plant. Other scales, including a rubber membrane (hydrostatic) scale that records one-half of 1-lOUt'a of a pound, are used with fans to j measure forces on certain sections j of the model s body.
