THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

LEGION POLICY ON COURT PLAN STATED TODAY

Colmery Stand On Proposal.

Harry W. Colmery, American Legion national commander, in a statement in the National Legionnaire, appearing today, declared the Legion has not yet adopted a specific stand on the President's Supreme Court proposals. He cited actions of three national conventions at which the Legion's stand on the Constitution was defined. “The American Legion,” he said, “is opposed to any attempt to grant Congress any judicial powers and authority now vested in the Supreme Court; to interfere with its independence and any attempt which seeks to weaken or change the Constitution by other than Constitutional means.”

Motive Held Determining

His statement continued: “I am confident that in our membership are Legionnaires who oppose recommendations made to Congress with reference to the Supreme Court and the Federal Judiciary and others who support them. There is | suggestion that it involves a partial

Legion must remain silent. “Neither govern me in determining a course of action. Both are subordinate to the major question, whether the proposal is contrary to

to condemn any course proposed by a political party which infringed the preamble to the constitution of the American Legion and any convention policy. “In this instance the general policy of the Legion covers the matter of the controversy. Whether the specific proposal to increase the number of the Court and infuse ‘new blood’ into it, is contrary to Legion policy, is the question. If it is, it is my duty to condemn it. If not, to say so. “Congress has the power to determine the number which shall constitute the Court. The answer depends on the motive of the President in making the proposal.”

WINDSOR MAY WRITE

By United Press LONDON, March 13.—The Duke of Windsor is considering writing an autobiography covering 30 years of his colorful life—but not the part that everyone would like to read, it was reported today. It was said that he contemplated writing his memoirs of the years 1900 to 1930, from his sixth to his 36th years, in two volumes. This would cover his childhood memories of Queen Victoria, who died in 1901; his grandfather, Edward VII, father of the British-Russian-French “triple entente” of pre-war and World War days; of his investiture as Prince of Wales after Edward’s death and the crowded years after that, as an army officer in France; as a “salesman of the Empire” in his American and Dominion tours; and as an indefatigable rider to hounds with a penchant for falling off the big horses he persisted in using.

Frank E. McKinney, County Treasurer, today announced that less than one-fifth of Marion County residents affected by the Real Estate Tax Moritorium Act passed by the Legislature had filed for benefits under the law.

HIS AUTOBIOGRAPHY

Cold Gold

Dynamite Trap Guards Mine of Prospector, Now Dead.

Bu United Press A VETA. Colo, March 13.—In4 stant death lurks behind steel doors for those who attempt to enter the secret mine of Alex Cobsky. Mr. Cobsky died last week in the state hospital at Pueblo. Only one man, Theodore C. Gibbons, Grand Valley (Colo.) rancher, has ever seen the entrance to the mine. Thirty years ago, Mr. Cobsky took Mr. Gibbons, then a boy of 14, into his cabin where the entrance is located under the floor. Mr. Gibbons said nothing covered the shaft. But a little ways down, a steel door protects the gold from those who would intrude. Dynamite, steel traps, concealed pitfalls and other ingenious devices block the way. “You can't go any farther, boy. I'm the only man in the world who can go past that steel door alive and I'll always be the only man,” Mr. Gibbons said he was told. Residents of the district are afraid to go near the mine. They fear if they as much as try to open the cabin door, they will be blown to bits.

NO INSULT INTENDED, NAZI REPORTS STATE

Private Informant Tells of Dodd Protest.

By United Press BERLIN, March 13.—Germany has given assurances that no insult was intended to the American nation in German press comments on

the suggestion of Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York that Adolf Hitler be portrayed in a “Chamber of Horrors” at New York's world fair, a most reliable private informant said today. The assurance was given by Baron Constantin von Neurath, foreign minister, at the conference yesterday at which American Ambassador William E. Dodd protested vigorously against insults leveled at the Uniteq States and Americans generally, the informant said. Baron von Neurath was said to have told Mr. Dodd that, however, Mayor La Guardia’s words might have been expected to awaken general resentment in Germany and that if expressions used in some papers were exaggerated this was due to resentment,

DRINKING BY JURORS MAY SAVE DOOMED

Counsel Deplores Mixing Alcohol and Justice.

By United Press NEW ORLEANS, March 13.—Because several jurors in a murder trial admitted taking two drinks during a recess, the lives of three condemned bank-robber killers may be saved. G. Wray Gill, counsel for Joseph Ugarte, Owen Cauche and Anthony Dallao, charged before the Louisiana Supreme Court that “no juror should have been allowed to drink liquor in a case involving the lives of three men.” He said some of the jurors admitted taking two drinks at the home of Foreman Gustaf Westerfeldt Jr. during a week-end recess last July. The condemned men were convicted of a New Year's eve bank robbery here in 1930 when a guard and a customer were killed. The Justices took the appeal under advisement after one of their number commented: “The average New Orleans man can take two dripks and hol and hold them.”
