LOANS TO KEEP FARM PRICES- FIRM TO IMPEACH JURY ONCE STAR 1 Mayor's Speech at Chicago Convention Stirs Both Amusement, Amazement Practical and Legal Bar riers to 50-Mile Metropolitan Area Revealed By ANTHONY F. MOITORET Mingled amazement and amusement today greeted the flight of fancy indulged in by Mayor An.geln J. Rossi of San Franciro at. lite National Conference of Mayors in Chicago when he released to an unsuspecting world what had been, up lo now, a deep secret -his city's ambition to annex Oakland. Berkeley.

Alameda, Richmond and other communities within a radius of 50 miles from the San Francisco city hall. With a single sweeping stroke of oratory, the San Francisco mayor wiped nearly a score of thriving communities off the map and made them mere civic chattels of bis own city under (lie borough system. Speaking on "Combined City and County Gnvci nnienl. Rossi thrilled hi hearers at the mayors' convention with an account of how the San Franci co charter bad been fixed up In launch an annexation campaign that would make Los Angeles jealous.

Councilmcn who voted to Oakland's mayor lo Chicago were inclined to the belief that he must have spoken up for Oakland's continued existence and put Mayor Rossi definitely in his place. Even in San Francisco trier wai professed surprise at Rossi's remarks, the expansion program has been secretly cooked up by an exclusive cabal of politicians, it was apparent that Rossi had committed a faux pa As one observer put it, he "pulled a Los Mayor Rossi's Greater San Francisco, as described in his Chicago speech, would include all the communities within a circle extending SO miles out in the Pacific Ocean and running north lo take in Peta-Itima. Sonoma.

Napa. Suisun and Fairfield. To the Fast the enlarged city would have Mount Diablo as a rival of Twin Peaks. Pleasanton. Milpitas.

Santa Clara and Pesca-dero would be other communities inside the frinjc of the enlarged metropolis. PROTEST EXPECTED FROM EOS ANGELES Protests weie expecled from Los Angeles to the scheme, inasmuch as the combined population of all the San Francisco boroughs would make the Souihern California city a mere hamlet by comparison. "The charter of San Francisco." explained Mayor Rossi in his lecture to other mayors on how cities take on girth, "contains certain permissive sections providing all the necessary machinery for the borough system of government. Each of these 15 communities has a mayor and supports both city and county officers, with tax rates that vary, but, are all much higher than Ihe tax rale of San Francisco." The monkey wrench in the ma chinery described by Mayor Ross, is the specific limitation in the charter of Ihe City and County of San Francisco for the annexation of San Mateo County, when and if the people of that county vote to become San Franciscans. Chartei experts at the San Francisco City Hall today admitted that there is no provision In their charted foi absorbing any other territory.

ROSSI PROGRAM A "PIPE DREAM" The San Mateo annexation provision was the result of an enabling act which San Francisco succeeded in having the 1929 Legislature approve. Until similar legislation could be enacted covering all thr. other counties included in the Rossi vision of a Greater San Francisco, his program would be a pipe dream. Rossi told the mayors gathered at Chicago that having all these separate cities with their own mayors was "wasteful duplication." The San Francisco charter, he let it be known, had been drafted in anticipation of taking in these other cities to give them ihe benefit of the San Francisco brand of government In the Eastbay Ihe Rossi announcement came as something of a shock, inasmuch as no intimation had been given of the San Francisco plans when the cities on both sides of the bay had joined hands to obtain $62,000,000 from the Federal government to build the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge. That it was planned to make the bridge merely an extension of a San Francisco Street was not even (Continued on Page 2, Col.

STANFORD EXPECTED TO CEEAR HURDLE. Stanford is expected to roll home the winner with ease, but the California-Santa Clara appears a toss-up. Neither the Bears nor the Broncos are expected to offer much in the way of smooth play defensively, since the Broncos know little of the California attack and arc more or less unprepared, and California has spent practically the entire week working on offense.

Ingram is starting an experienced line, particularly strong at the positions handled by Captain Ransomr, "Red" Christie and "Swede" Carlson, tarkle, center and guard, respectively. A light backfield will open the game, with Joe Verducel, Arlcig Williams, George Relics and Keefcr lining up. SANTA CEARA MNE TO GET WORKOUT Santa Clara's line will be tested fully this afternoon. The Bronco backfield is considered about the strongest ever assembled at the but line weaknesses have been predicted at guards, particularly. The starting line may prove capable of holding the California attack, but it is in reserves that the Broncs arc weak.

TO RUSH Eighty Chief Executives At Chicago Meet Appeal For Quick 'Red Tape' Cut Great Suffering Impends, Claims Plea, Unless Big Relief Fund Is Allocated CHICAGO. Sept.

The United States Conference of Mayors today called on the Federal Government to begin with all possible speed the expenditure of provided for public works to furnish employment. Most of the R0 mayors at the conference declared themselves dissatisfied with delavs in spending the fund, which will be allocated on the basis of $1 for every $2 spent by the cities. The resolution declared that unlrss a more simple system of allocating the money were devised "it will be difficult, if not impossible to prevent great suffering and possibly starvation in all sections of America during the Winter of 1933-34. "We are fearful thai in our anxiety to prevent the evils which have ever boon present in connection with expenditure of public money, thai the system of checks and balances and safeguards devised arc so intricate and involved, or in other words are so enmeshed with red tape, as to defeat the very purpose for which the NRA was created- to end unemployment in America." STRICT V. S.

DEMANDS DELAY AID, CLAIM. Adoption of the document fol lowed an hour of discussion during which mayors of a dozen cities told of public works projects delayed for weeks while city and State engineers and officials struggled to meet the requirements of the public-works act. Mnvor John V. Dore of Seattle declared the money should be allocated directly to (he states to be spent for anv purpose deemed advisable by (he recipients. "The 30 per cent grant from Ihe Federal government doesn't mean much anyway." Dore said "The re-slriclions placed bv the government on our projects make it cost about one-third more to complete Ihein." Mayor Louis Marcus of Salt Lake City said the plans for his citv': public works projects under the hill were completed in September after three months' work, and thai "the government probably won't pass on them until January I.

when the cold wealher will prevent any construction work." MAYORS DISCUSS PRO AND CON OF ACT. Mayors Marcus. II. W. Worley of Columbus, and Manager ('.

Nelson Sparks, of Akron, joined with Dore in demanding direct allocation. Mayor Daniel 'W. Hoan or Milwaukee warned that giving the money direct to Ihe States might result ill its being used for political patron. ice. He said Slate legislators prejudiced toward cities might cause the funds to he spent unfairly.

Mayor T. Sonnies Walmsley ol Mew Orleans was elected president I of Ihe conference, succeeding Mayor James M. Curley of Boston. Mayor Daniel W. Loan of Mil-i wnukee was named vice-president, and Mayors Angelo J.

Harry L. Hopkins. Federal lalor of emergency relief, admonished Ihe mayors of (10 leading cities attending the conference not to allow local relief expenditures lo slump In the belief that-the Federal government would bear the burden. "The cost of giving relief lo the hungry unemployed this year is far beyond the $500,000,000 appropriated by Congress," Hopkinu said. Many he stated, had done a good job of providing relief but that "others have done nothing." Hopkins said the Federal rcliel administration already has allocated 100.000.000 pounds of cured pork lo Ihe states and that shipments would be slarled next week.

The Federal administrator said there bad been heartening reductions in the number of persons requiring relief-placing the -present number at 3.500,000 families. Public works continued to be the dominant subject, of discussion by the mayors, several of them declaring loud dissatisfaction wuh delays in allocating the fund. Among the objections was that of Mayor John F. Dore of Seattle, who declared procrastination in allocating public works had brought the NRA to a standstill in the Pacific Northwest.

For the first time in California le.al history a jury may be recalled for cross-examination and impeached as to its own nu.ilificalions for returning a verdict, when Judge Robert Syer re-convene; court on Monday to bear arguments for and against the petition for a new trial for David Lamson. convicted of the murder of his wife. Assistant District Attorney John Fitzgerald announced today that he will present counter-affidavits from each of the jurors to combat affidavits filed by Edwin M.

Rea and Maurice Rankin, attorneys for the defense. If this Is done. Rea will demand that the entire jury, with Its two alternates, be sunpoenaed for questioning bv the defense. The defense attack on Ihe jury, constituting one of the moft dram alic and unusual pleas for a new trial eer heard in a murder case, brought a record crowd to the courtroom yesterday afternoon. Lamson was virtually forgotten, JURORS THEMSELVES BECOME DEFENDANTS The jury which convicted him ol first degree murder without 'he rider calling for life imprisonment instead of hanging, had suddenly become collective defendants.

Not even Lamson's own day on the witness stand when he testified in nis own defense aroused the public in-lerest as did Rankin's arg)Rpenl that jurors had falsified, concealed their disqualifications and prejudices, had discussed the case and virtually decided it before all the evidence was In their hands, mid had been subjected to high pressure methods in favor of conviction by both jurors them elves and by the bailiffs appointed to guard them.

Judge Syer has allowed each of those affidavits to he read, and has allowed them to be filed with Albert Nevvlin, clerk of the court, which makes (hem a matter of public record. AFFIDAVIT OF WOMAN JUROR TO BE CONSIDERED When Ihe court opens on Monday, Rankin will present as one of his most damaging points the sworn statement of Miss Nclle Clemence.

the only unmarried woman member of the jury and also the one juror who believed and. according lo her affidavit, still believes, that Lamson is innocent. When the jury adjourned for lunch last Saturday, Miss Clemence states in her affidavit, the single ballot, taken stood eleven to one for conviction, and lhat an oral ballol revealed her as the single juror voting riot guilty. During the lunch period, according to her affidavit, George Peterson, foreman of the Jury, railed across the table to another juror, "You know what happened to the juror that was fixed in the Matlock rase." Miss Clemence, she declared, had read severe public criticism of the one juror who had held out against the death penally in this case, tried shortly before the Lamson case. "After lunch," her affidavit reads, "all of the other eleven jurors argued with this affiant and attempted to convince her of the guilt of the defendant.

ARGUMENT IN JURY ROOM IS DISCLOSED "It was argued by some of the jurors that defendant killed bis wife in a sexual rage, but affiant stated to them the impossibility of such a thing and asked the male jurors if any of them could be enraged over such a matter. J. A. Harliss then spoke to affiant and said, "You know David Lamson is a moral degenerate, that he bought flowers for other women and couldn't even by his wife a decent night gown." "George B. Peterson and B.

F. Davison, two of the jurors, said to her that they were voting to protect their daughters and society from such fiends, and that, affiant had apparently no interest in the public. "During the argument Mrs. Minnie Moore and George II.

Ju-dah and Isaac Ezra, twin brothers and heads of what is declared to be the biggest narcotic ring ever to operate on this Coast, were sentenced today to 12 years in a Federal penitentiary, and ordered to pay fines of $12,000 each. Shorter sentences were given to three of their agents, wdio, like the Ezras, had pleaded guilty last July lo a charge of smuggling "dope" into this country from the Orient.

Sure. He gave each of the Judah brothers a 10- and five-year sentence, to run concurrently, and a two-year sentence to run consecutively. Charles Brennan, one of the attorneys for the Judahs, made a plea for leniency in behalf of Isaac, saying that he had been merely a dupe of his brother, and lhat he was now broke. United States Attorney H. H.

Mc-Pike, in reply to this, said that investigations conducted by the government here and in the Orient had convinced him that Isaac was, in fact, the brains of the organization. McPike also declared the belief that thore was an Immense cache of narcotics somewhere on this Coast, and probably also a large sum of money hidden away by the Ezras.

Jordan Back From Tahiti; Kinds It PLEASANTON. Sept. 23. After hurrying back from the South Sea islands, where she was shipwrecked several weeks ago. to investigate a report that the "White Angel Rancho" had been looted by the colony of unemployed men left in charge of it.

Mrs. Lois Jordan returned to the ranci late yesterday to find that the "mutineers" had developed a thriving farm and had added 47 acres of land to her domain during her absence. Early in July, Mrs. Jordan, known ns the "White Angel" due to her activities in behalf of the unemployed in San Francisco, sailed for Tahiti on a ketch built by two members of her colony. The boat was wrecked upon a sparsely populated island in the South Seas.

FALSE CABLEGRAM IS RECEIVED Nothing was heard from her until yesterday morning when she arrived in Saji- Francisco and announced that, 'she had hurried home to investigate a cablegram slating that the men she had left in charge of the White Angel Rancho. located in the hills north of Pleasanton, had eaten all of the vegetables in the garden, all of the poultry and cattle and then deserted the ranch, taking her automobile with them. Mrs. Jordan spent the greater part of the day searching for an officer to accompany her to the ranch. Late yesterday she returned alone.

She found George Stone, her foreman, on the job and working Ihe nine men she had left, with him. Her car was still in the garage. Two trucks which she had regarded as total losses when she left had been repaired and had been hauling bay for more than a month. FARM FOUND TO BE IN FLOURISHING SHAPE The ducks, chickens, turkeys and cows had multiplied beyond her fondest hopes. A gasoline engine bad replaced the old windmill and through irrigation the men had expanded the garden space.

During her absence, the Martin-Jewett Foundation, of San Francisco, had become interested in Ihe project she had started. After a careful investigation. Ihe foundation purchased 2(1 acres adjoining Ihe rancho and leased 27 acres more which were turned over to her group of unemployed to farm. MRS. JORDAN IS HOSTESS AT BANQUET Last, nighl Mrs.

Jordan was at a loss to explain the cablegram which she had received but. she was so gratified to fnd that her faith in the men she had given shelter was justified that she played the role of hostess at a banquet, here. Mrs. Jordan gained fame two years ago when she established Hie White Angel Camp on the F.m-barcadero in San Francisco. The camp grew until at one lime she was providing food and shelter for 4000 men.

Racketeers "muscled in" on her project and she abandoned it to open the "White Angel Rancho" where deserving unemployed would have an opportunity to become sell sustaining. Mass Formation Flight From San Diego Proposed hy ti a Commander BAIIIA HONDA. Panama, Sepl. 23. -(UP) -Rear Admiral A.

PARADE NAVY PLANNING HONOLULU OOP Government's Support "of Cotton on 10 Cent Basis May Be Extended Further Gigantic Effort to Assist Purchasing Power Tied To Curtailment Progranot By ROY E. HENDRICKSOV Associated Press Staff Writer.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23. Extent sion of the administration's planfo supporting cotton prices of 10 cents pound to othpr major farm pro duee today became the immediata objective in the Government's efforts for lifting farm purchasing -power quickly to keep pace with industrial price boosts. The program will take the form of a gigantic effort to place "a bottom" under farm prices through extension of credit, wherever it can be definitely coupled with production control. This was disclosed as officials of the agricultural adjustment administration, jubilant over the cotton! plan, centered their efforts on tha subject with their hopes for prompt relief for agriculture at the highest point in the last three months.

Production control is regarded by farm 'officials as insurance for tha Government's loans, and as assuring an influence on the supply ot a commodity so as to assure improvement of demand. NOT ARBITRARY PRICE FIXING They believe this feature will take the credit plan definitely out of the class of arbitrary price fix ing ana as distinct from stabilization efforts undertaken by the old farm board. Both of these methods, they assert, ignore excessive supply and overproduction and would be doomed to failure because of the potential high producing capacity of agriculture. Officials of the farm administration, the Reconstruction Corporation and the farm credit administration today were busy conferring over details of the plan to lend southern cotton farmers 10 cents a pound on this year's crop with hope that announcement of the program could be made in the next few days. The general plan was announced yesterday when only a broad outline had been decided upon.

It was reiterated that Ihe 10 cents a pound would be loaned on the basis ol farm prices, which would mean an increase of more than a cent a pound over exchange prices that have prevailed for the past several days. MUST PARTICIPATE IN REDUCTION PLAN There was still some difference of opinion over whether cotton growers must agree to join in tha control program for next year before the loans would be made. But it was the general opinion today that some proviso for participation) -in the plan intended to reduce th crop to 25,000,000 next year would be required before a farmer could get the 10 cents a pound advanced on his staple. As to other commodities, Georga N. Peek, chief administrator of tha farm act, said he is ready to meet with their representatives to go over plans for extension of the principle of the cottotn credit plan.

Each of the major commodities, including wheat, livestock, rice and dairy products, presents a distinct problem, but he is confident that assurances of production control can be obtained for all of them. The wheat production control plan has already been adopted and officials believe that the credit plan could be applied to this grain with-nut great difficulty, providing producers desire it. i The cotton plan involves potential loans of $400,000,000, but farm officials are of the opinion the response in cotton prices will be such as to make necessary a volume of loans far smaller than that -Cot-- (Continued on Page 2, Col. 7.) of Hollywood?

23. -Two things, armed with pistols, kidnaped and robbed a grocer and a pedestrian last night, beat both of their victims senseless, and hurled them out of their automobile. The bandits first seized J. W. Camilla, 25, of 312 West San Carlos Street, as he was walking near his home, and forced him to get into their car.

Driving to Kdcnvale, six miles south of San Jose, they stopped the machine and slugged Camilla with their guns and fists. Then they searched their unconscious victim, robbed him of $20. and threw him into a ditch. A passing motorist later discovered Camilla and brought him to San Jose. He was given hospital treatment.

Two men whose description an swers that of Camilla's attackers later appeared at. the grocery store of Henry Willi at 702 West San For nando Street.
