LindhiTjrli Ixiw Violator Hanirs c 4RTIII It OOOt II OIKS ON t.Al.I.OWs FOK RIDNAPINti TWO McALESTER, Okln., June 19, (UPj Arthur Gooch. 27, who kidnaped two Texas officers and released tnern unharmed after carrying them into Oklahoma was hanged today, lirst person to die tor violation of the Lindbergh law. Gooch dropped through the trap at fi:07 a m. and was declared dead about 15 minutes later. Until the last he hoped for executive clemency. Gooch was convicted of kidnaping R. N. Baker ami H. K. Marks in Paris, Tex . in order to escape arrest. The men were released at Snow, Okla . unharmed except for a cut Baker suffered when he fell against a plate glass in a scuffle with Gooch and Ambrose Nix, who was slain by officers at Okemah when Gooch was captured. Gooch showed no emotion as he mounted the steps of the IK-foot gallows He told U. S. Deputy Marshal George Hall he had no statement to make. Doctors waited several minutes after examining ihe body before they pronounced Gooch officially dead. A crowd of approximately 300. including prison anil state officials, watched him die. Rich Owen, prison executioner, who has sent 53 men to death, tripped the drop. Gooch’s final hope for clemency did not fail until lust night when President Roosevelt denied an appeal for n pardon. “The president didn’t read my let-

ter,” he moaned. “I didn’t think the president should have issued a statement.” Gooche’s greatest hope for clemency lay in the fact that such desperate characters as Alvin Karpis, William Mahan, Harry Campbell, and Thomas Robinson, Jr.—men who killed or kidnaped and demanded and collected ransom were permitted to plead guilty and receive prison sentences. One of Gooch's last mesages was to Mrs. Roosevelt, asking her to use her influence with the president.

Third Party To Be Announced

SUPPORT OF COUGHLIN AND TOWNSEND EXPECTED BY ORGANIZERS NEW YORK. June 19 <UP>—The launching of a third party intended to attract the support of Father Charles E. Coughlin's national union for social justice, the Townsend Old age pension group, the remnants of the late Huey P. Long’s “share the wealth” adherents, and various inflationary factions, was antici prated in political circles today. Chief Prophet of a new entry in the 1936 presidential sweepstakes was Coughlin, who told the United Press last night that he expiected the announcement of a candidacy for president on a third party ticket some time today in either New York, Boston, or Washington. Coughlin was working on a radio speech he will deliver tonight 'at 8:45 p. m. CST' which will contain an endorsement of the candidate, provided he announces in time and his platform is what Coughlin expects it to be. From Dr. Francis E. Townsend, head of the old age pension plan, came contradictory statements that still, in essence, tended to confirm a prospective amalcation of Coughlinprospective amalgamation of Cough lin-Townsend-share-the-wealth forces behind a presidential candidate other than President Roosevelt or Gov. Alf M. Landon.
