Wallace said It would be shown that two blood stained handkerchiefs and a key which fltten the bath room of Mrs. Enslow's suite were found later by detectives. He said the state would show that blood types on a pair of pajamas owned by Baldwin and the handkerchiefs were the same.

Had Supply Meek, in asserting that Baldwin had not needed the supply kept by his mother, said on October 3 Baldwin went to Windsor.

Canada, and returned with several hundred grains of the mild narcotic which was prescribed for him. The defense attorney said he and others made tests and inspections and It was altogether probable a burglar visited the Enslow home Police at first worked on a robbery theory before they arrested Baldwin. Meek mentioned that the night of October 16, a neighbor was 111 and had a nurse with with her. He added: "The nurse was up and said she faintly heard a woman scream, she saw a headlight nointed up the al ley toward the Enslow house. She heard a tapping noise and in a few minutes the car sped up the alley.

There will be other evidence to show some very strange happenings around the house early that morn ing." Meek also mentioned a can open er which was sent to state police and said: "They even took the can opener he kept In his room to open cans of fruit Juices and sent It to Charleston to determine what the discoloration was.

CRITICIZE LEGISLATURE ON SCHOOL, LABOR ACTS (Continued From Page One) HINT COMPROMISE IN COURT BATTLE (Continued From Page One) Was Registered Tlie third and last witness of the day was Dr. Walter E. Vest, who testified he registered Baldwin with the federal government as an ad diet In 1935. He said he prescribed five grains a day to be given by Mrs Enslow. Wallace asked the doctor over de fense protest: "What are the symptoms of an addict?" vest replied: "The patient has a tendency to be Egocentric, selfish, and lying is ordinarily accepted as a symptom In response to another question the physician replied: "An addict will go to considerable length to get the drug and he will make any sacrifice to get It." Miss Brlcker, on the stand for an hour, related the events of the day of Mrs.

Enslow's death. She said Judge Johnson, Negro chauffeur, brought her Mrs. Enslow's billfold which he found on the walk outside. Miss Brlcker testified she then went into Mrs. Enslow's dressing rom, looked Into the bed room and saw the bed disarranged and stains on, a pillow.

She entered and saw Mrs. Enslow on the floor and Immediately became hysterical, she said. The witness said she went out Into the hall and met Baldwin coming from his room. She said he went into Mrs. room and was there three or four minutes alone.

The housekeeper said she had known Baldwin he was 8 or 9 years old and that he had taken narcotics only since his accident. "Who had it?" asked Wallace. "Mrs. Eslow gave it out," said the housekeeper. "She put out the five grains In a bottle In her bed room.

He took one at 12 o'clock noon, never knew when he took the other." Under cross-examination, Meek asked: Did he ever come to you and you got It for him?" Miss Brlcker replied: "Mrs. Enslow would leave an extra one In her dressing room. If he got a bad tablet I would get the extra one for him." Meek asked if "ycu ever heard of an argument between Mrs. Enslow and Charles over the tablets." Walace's objection was. sustained but Miss Brlcker shook her head In the negative.

In discussing the amount of money Mrs. Enslow might have had In the house, the housekeeper said the widow draw $50 from a bank about a week before her death. Miss Brlcker said she believed (12 was paid to the cook and Mrs. EnWow made a couple of small purchases. which he would not predict might furnish material for compromise.

Would Limit Terms They were a constitutional amendment limiting the terms of federal Judges to nine years instead of a Ufetime, and a bill requiring that at least seven of the higli tribimal's nine members concur before an act of congi-ess can be declared invalid. Senators opposing the Roosevelt bill to Increase the membersliip of the court to a maximum of fifteen, unless incumbents over seventy retire, claimed enough votes in the Judiciary committee to shelve that measure and substitute an amendment to the constitution. There was disagreement as to which of the several amendments proposed should be favored. Most sentiment apparently turned to that of Senator O'Mahoney stipulating that two-thirds of the court must agree that a law is unconstitutional before it can be set aside. "I would be delighted if a compromise could be reached on my measures," Norris said, "but, I'm not very hopeful.

They are my idea of what should be done, and I thing they would accomplish the president's purpose." Senator Burke a leader among opposition senators, was one of those favoring the O'Mahoney amendment, and opposed to that of Senator Norris. There are enough votes on the Judiciary committee "right now," he said, to approve of an amendment, and "something of the sort" will be attempted "at the proper time." Senator Van Nuys also opposed to the president's bill, agreed that such was the case, but estimated sentiment for tlie O'Mahoney amendment at a much lower level than did Burke. The day also witnessed the passing of another supreme court opinion announcement session witliout rulings of pending litigation vitally affecting the controversy over the president's proposals. The pending cases involve the Wagner labor relations act, and the Washington state minimum wage law. An annoimcement that William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor will testify in support of the president's bill upon the resumption of Judiciary committee hearings tomorrow.

He will be followed by Justin Miller, president of the Federal Bar association and former dean of the Duke university and the Southern California law schools. taken out of the budget and the money placed elsewhere. "Bills were passed, providing for small increases for school teachers, but when the crisis on the budget came, the school teachers, like free text books, received no consideration." Easton asserted that labor was "made a laughing stock in the state senate" through a Republican minority "assisted by some Democrat senators." He added: "Not a single solitary Important piece of labor legislation was enacted into law, notwithstanding the way labor supported the Democrat party during the last election. "In making tills statement, I do not wish to be understood as claiming labor received less consideration at the hands of the Democrats than they did at the hands of the Republicans. As a party, the Republicans in both house and senate did their full share toward blocking labor legislation, while the Democrat party, which was in full power, failed in the crisis to repay labor, even in a small degree, for the support it received during the last election.

Cites The "Picture" "Let us look at the picture. The children in the school are denied tree text books, tiie teachers are denied increases in salaries, and labor was denied progressive legislation. "While the above groups were being denied, legislation was enacted increasing the salaries of all state officials, including the governor, appointive officers, Judges, practically all county officers, and Increases In cost of feeding by sheriffs." Tiie legislature in passing the budget bill adopted a compromise plan of $12,100,000 a year for primary state school aid. It approved $1,500,000 a year from general funds for secondary aid, to be augmented by about $3,000,000 a year from other sources. The secondary aid may be distributed only with approval of the board of public works.

Trent said in a statement: "I have no objection whatsoever to distribution of secondary aid. on he approval of the state board of public works. In fact, I shall be pleased to have others bear with me the responsibility of saying "no" to the many requests that cannot be granted. "Restrictions, however, cannot solve the schools' financial problem. Restrictions do not provide additional money.

With no more money available, any regulations that would provide money for counties must take that much money from other "And that is exactly tlie effect of designating the $12,100,000 for primary aid. That regulation creases tlie amount to a number of counties of the state, some of which may be able to Increase teachers' salaries." Trent said the limitation, however, "reduces the amount to other coimties below what they had available for this school year, 1936-37, and therefore, will unless additional money Is provided from some source require a reduction in salaries and a shortened term." The superintendent added: "Tlie increase In number of children in average dally attendance and the employment of teachers with higher grade certificates will further embarrass those counties that will have less money next year than they had this year. With the amount of money made available by the legislature, the primary aid should not liave exceeded $11,500,000." Signs Bills The governor signed 11 bills to- today, including one which Increases salaries of state elective and appointive officials. Two others became law without his signature. The salary act will not apply to those liolding positions.

The governor's salary is boosted to $10,000 by the act, effective in 1941, while other elective state officials are raised to $6,000. It is a $2,000 jump for the gubernatorial post ahd $1,000 for the others. Another measure signed today authorized installation of a sliort wave radio system by the department of public safety, including four sending stations and sets for troopers' cars. Acts permitting the state road commission to sell property sucli as rights of way, for which it has no further u.se. and providing financial relief for Ralelgl) county became law without tlie governor's signature.

Authorizing appointment of an- otlier assistant for the attorney general and employment of assistants from time to time. Requiring that municipalities shall offer refunding bonds flnst to the state sinking fund commission.
