FIX {8,000,000 RELIEF FUND IN WISCONSIN BILL Governor La Follette’s Job Program Is Slashed by Legislature. , Rtt United f’rrm MADISON, Wis., Jan. 20.—An $8,000,000 unemployment relief bill, that more than halved Governor Phillip La Follettes original proposal, today ended a bitter eight weeks’ debate in the Wisconsin legislature climaxed by arrangement of a "duel” and death threat letters. The relief measure was a compromise between the La Follette Progressives and Republican regulars. it doubled the normal state income tax but tJd not provide what enemies of the legislation termed confiscatory rates on high incomes. Coincident with passage of the relief bill, the youthful Wisconsin Governor, scion of the powerful

La Follette ‘dynasty,” affixed his signature to a bill making Wisconsin the first state to adopt unemployment insurance. In the midst of filibusters against the relief bill. Senator Walter Polakowski, Milwaukee Socialist, challenged Senator Bernard Gettleman to a duel with boxing glove*. Gettelman accepted, on condition that the gate receipts go to relief of the unemployed. During the prolonged legislative fight, several senators declared they had received threats of death if they voted against the La Follette program. The compromise finally was agreed upon when it was seen that the full progressive plan could not be forced through the senate where regular Republicans held a narrow margin. The doubled tax is effective on 1931 incomes. The emergency tax is levied on dividends of Wisconsin corporations, hitherto exempt, and prevents deduction of capital losses. The corporation income tax is not increased. A two-year tax on chain stores also was passed. The chief defeat suffered by the La Follette forces was failure of the Governor’s announced proposal for redistribution of wealth through heavy taxes on large incomes. His reforestration program also was substantially reduced.

BIRTHDAY GOES UNOBSERVED BY WINNIE JUDD Slayer Suspect Is 27; Trial for Trunk Murder Is Delayed Again. BY GEORGE H. BEALE United Press Staff Correspondent PHOENIX. Ariz., Jan. 29.—Winnie Ruth Judd, facing death in her trial on murder charges, celebrated her twenty-seventh birthday today. Instead of birthday festivities, she spent just another day in her cell in the county jail, as the recess, on account of jurors’ illness, was continued until Monday in her trial on a charge of slaying Agnes Anne Le Roi, a fellow nurse. Illness among jurors made it possible there might not be a court session today, but if it was called, the blond defendant was to hear alienists attempt to show that she was insane when and if she shot

to death Mrs. Le Roi and Miss Hedvig Samuelson. for whose slaying Mrs. Judd may be tried later. Mrs. Judd's father, the Rev. H. J. McKinnell of Darlington, Ind., said that the family did not intend to observe Mrs. Judd's birthday in any way. "We hardly think it would be an appropriate time for anything like that,” he said sadly today. "I don’t believe she will realize it is her birthday," Mrs. McKinnell continued. "She doesn’t seem to realize much these s days, not. even the gravity of her own position.” Mr. and Mrs. McKinnell already have done their part toward advancing their daughter's insanity claims. Both admitted insanity in their family. In his testimony Mr. McKinnell said as late as two weeks ago when he visited his daughter in jail she claimed “they” were trying to take her baby away from her. Mr. McJ'innell said that to his knowledge she never hac.' had a baby.

HAWAIIAN JURY HEAD CHARGED WITHCOERCION Foreman Forced Indictment of Four Americans, Says Defense Counsel. BY DAN CAMPBELL United Press Staff Correspondent HONOLULU, Jan 29.—A major scandal threatened tofday over action of the grand jury which returned second degree murder indictments against an American matron and three naval men charged with killing an Hawaiian. Montgomery Winn, attorney for

the defense, who already had accused Judge A. M. Christy of coercing the iujy, amended his motion for quashing th- indictments to include charges that the foreman of the grand jury refused to report “no true bill” against the defendants, as the jury had instructed him. Winn's motion charged: "That the foreman of the grand jury was instructed by members to advise Judge Christy that the grand jury had rendered no bill (which would make prosecution of the defendants impossible), but that the foreman, in substance, said the jury had read an editorial in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin which said it was the duty of the jury to return a true bill. “Thereupon the foreman tefused to report to Judge Christy as ordered. The defendants are Mrs. Grace Hubbard Fortescue, her son-in-law, Lieutenant Thomas H. Massie, and two naval enlisted men,
