HUGHES BEGINS FINAL PLEA IN SCRIPPS GASE Clash With Baker in Closing Argument Over Money Draws Crowd. £,'/ United Press CINCINNATI. March 23.—Former Secretary of State Charles Evans Hughes this morning began his final argument to close the trial of Mrs. Josephine S. Scripps for an accounting against Robert P. Scripps, executor of the estate of E. W. Scripps. Word that the routine proceedings were ever and the anticipated debate between Hughes and former Secretary of War Baker, counsel of Robert Scripps, had begun brought a crowd once more to the courtroom. Hughes argued that between Mrs. Scripps’ husband, James G. Scripps, and his father there existed a verbal partnership arrangement by which the son was to share equally with father in the increment of the Scripps properties. There are four questions involved, Hughes began: Were the dealings of the parties Within the sphere of legal obligations or simply within the sphere of parental affection? If they were in the sphere of legal obligation was there an agreement? If there was an agreement, what was the consideration and what was the promise? If there was an agreement, what legal relation was thus created? Was it a partnership or a mere employment? If there was an agreement creating a legal obligation is there any term in the agreement precluding recovery ? “We think,” he said, “there was -an agreement: that it was performed; that it was breeched, and that the plaintiff is entitled to a full accounting.” During the course of his argument Hughes paid a tribute to the newspaper business. “It is one of the great businesses of the country,” he said, “in which there is no tainted money.” The conclusion of the trial came days before it had been expected. Baker was ready to follow Hughes and conclude his argument before

court adjourned for the day. His argument is that James Scripps functioned only under a power of attorney and that there was no evidence of a contract between father and son. This contention also was the purport of the concluding testimony of the*defense. It was brought out through letter and witnesses that there was a rule in the Scripps concern that no agreements involving the payment of money or its equivalent were valid unless put in writing and autographically signed. This rule, it was said, had been in effect many years as one of a set; of rules governing the business. "Over a period of at least twenty years, I ran into it at every turn,” said J. C. Harper, who was personal attorney for E. W. Scripps and who was called as one of the last defense witnesses. DIES: FINE REMITTED Governor Ed Jackson has remitted the unpaid balance of S6O of the fine of Miss Ora Henderson of Noblesville, convicted and fined SIOO and S3O costs for violation of the liquor law. She died Jan. 5. At the time of her death, her father, Frank Henderson, who had secured payment of the fine, had paid but S7O of the total. He recently protested to the Governor that he was in financial straits and was unable to pay the balance. .. I
