G. Dunn. While manufacturers of men’s and boys’ clothing note Increases of 5 to 10 per cent, as compared with the first seven months for 1923, •distributors have had few gains and retailers practically none, according to the review. Although spring trade held up fairly well, summer business, so far, has been disappointing in spite of widely advertised sales offerings of well-known brands at reduced prices, the report said. However, infants’ wear has kept to its previous high records of production and in many parts of the country has gone ahead of last's year's sales volume.

BRIDGE PACT WAS START OF SLAYERS (Continued From Page 1) Istic Imaginings and ideas. Leopold’s association was the direct cause of "his childish compacts." State's Attorney Crowe leaped to his feet, with a demand that Dr. Heady tell the nature of the compact. “I shall be glad to tell it In the judge’s chambers.” Dr. Healy replied. looking at Chief Justice Caverly. indicating the story was unprintable. Crowe, however, insisted on being ttld from the witness stand. Jus tiee Caverly then waved State and defense lawyers to the witness chair rnd all grouped themselves about, ihe v. itness while Dr. Healy whispered his story. Newspapermen were ordered away by the judge. Judge Caverly Instructed the newspapermen on order of the court that no part of this testimony should be printed, in event that any of it had been heard. After the story of the “childish compare,” Dr. Healy said that Loeb insisted to him that he knew of nothing within himself that would deter him from again committing the crimes he has admitted. Leopold, the doctor said, stated he probably would continue the criminal career but more from an intellectual standpoint, a sort of means for satisfaction of his desires.
Nervous Instability Leopold, the doctor said, exhibited very plain symptoms of nervous Instability. “I found that Leopold flushes readily, makes numerous nervous (gestures as he talks and In every way shows plain nervousness," Dr. Healy said. "Regarding his mentality, I conducted many tests and found he rated very high intelligently.” Crowe at this point demanded to know the exact nature of the tests which the doctor said he conducted. Judge Caverly ruled that the yvitness could go on with his story. The tests could be explained if Crowe wished when the witness was cross-examined by the State, the judge said. When Crowe continued to demand the tests, Clarence Darrow, shies defense counsel, laughingly told the CQGrt he did not object and the witness started reading test questions which he had asked Leopold. After reading a few' of these, Crowe said he was satisfied regarding that test, and the witness explained other tests he used. Dr. Healy said he tested Leopold several times on the matter of rapidity In understanding and comprehension. Leopold made the best record of any one the doctor ever tested, the witness said. Leopold and Loeb sat entirely impassive as the doctor testified between arguments of the attorneys. They held whispered conversations with Danrow and their other attorneys at intervals. Close behind them sat Jacob Franks, father of the 14-year-old boy they murdered. Leopold Set Record One of the tests, the doctor explained, consisted of a series of statements with several words In each statement left out. The patient is asked to fill in the missing words. Five minutes are allowed for this test, the doctor explained, and he has never known any person to make a perfect record inside of five minutes except Leopold, who broke all records known to psychologists by supplying each word correctly in three minutes and fifteen seconds. This, the doctor said, shoived the remarkable Intellectual capacity of the young slayer. Leopold’s motor control was exceptionally good. Dr. Healy said. Testifying further to Leopold’s mind, the doctor told of the slayer doing a test that normally requires fifteen minutes in five minutes.
