CHICAGO, Oct. 19. Margaret Si- kora told on the witness stand today of her love for Edward Solo mon, the man whom her "perfect husband" is accused of murdering. In a crowded courtroom at the trial of her estranged mate, Rudolph, Mrs. Sikora, 22 years old, gave the details of her affair with Solomon before and after she left her husband.

Referring to the period last summer when Sikora's marital ardor cooled, Defense Counsel W. W. Smith asked: "Were you in love with Solomon at the time?" "Yes," she replied. Mrs. Sikora talked freely of her dates with Solomon.

She said she met him frequently while her hus band was working as a train dis patcher. Admits Getting Toy Panda. Smith asked if Solomon had giv en her a toy panda. Mrs. Sikora admitted receiving the gift.

"Did you-kiss it and take It to bed with you?" queried Smith. Mrs, Sikora smiled, but State objections obviated an answer. Spectators tittered. Smith Inquired about conversa tions she had with her husband after she left him last summer. He pointed to Sikora, a moody man of 31 "Why are you smiling?" the defense attorney asked.

"It's not nec essary to point him out, she replied. "Did you say, "He's my husband, but I don't love State objections were sustained by Judge James Fardy. Solomon, an accountant who worked in the office where Mrs. Sikora was employed as a secretary, was shot to death last Aug. 22.

Mrs. Sikor, attired in a trim blue suit, told a jury of 11 married men and a bachelor she shifted her affections to Solomon last April. Witness Tells of Shooting. Previously Carl Jasper Jr. testified he saw Sikora fire five or seven shots at Solomn as the victim stood reading a newspaper.

Policeman Edward Garrick, who arrested Sikora shortly afterward, quoted the defendant: "I shot that man. He broke up my home. Here's the gun." The State rested its case abruptly at noon. It had required little more than half a day to present its testimony. The State did not ask for the death penalty in its opening statement yesterday, but the jury is qual-ifed to impose it.

In the chamber sat Mrs. Elizabeth Boehme, Sikora's mother-in-law. She supported him throughout the investigation, picturing him as a model husband who even washed the dishes and scrubbed the floors. Sikora's wife has admitted that he approached perfection. CLARK DECLARES CAULFIELD IGNORES REPUBLICAN RECORD Declares His Opponent Does Not Offer Solution for Problems of the Day.

By the Associated Press. CHILLICOTHE, Oct. 19. Senator Bennett Clark told a Dem ocratic rally here last night any attempt to join issue with his Re publican opponent, former Gov. Henry S.

Caulfield, "is like wrest ling with an eel." sam: -tie views the six years of Democratic responsibility for government with a melancholy eye; with an air of gentle aloofness he vaguely expresses pious regret that the improvements of the last six years have not been greater than they are; he ignores completely the sorry record of the period when Hoover was President and he was Governor and Mellon and Mills the fiscal dictators of the nation. Clark described that period as a time "when we first had three-cent postage and three-cent corn, when the Republican policy of pandering to special privilege reached its full fruition, when the nation was orougnt to the very orinK oi irremediable disaster. "He does not tell us what enact ment of the last six years he would repeal If given power to do so, what agencies of government he would abolish, what definite poli- cies he would advocate if elected to the LOS ANGELES ZOO PARK ASKS PEOPLE TO FEED THE ANIMALS Bankrupt, It Appeals for Supplies ior Lions and Tigers Often Seen In Movies.

BRITISH CABINET MEETS, TAKES UP FOREIGMTROUBLES Gaps in Home Defense and How to Pacify Palestine Two of Most Pressing Matters Before-It. REPORT.ON TRADE TREATY WITH U. S. Partition Idea in Holy Land Losing Ground Cham-berlin Expects New Pacts With Hitler. By the Associated Press.

LONDON, Oct. 19. Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain met with his Cabinet today to discuss foreign policy, try to organize home defense and decide on a pacific course in strife-torn Palestine. The meet-ine lasted two hours and a half. A report on the present stage of negotiations for a British-American trade treatv also was before the Ministers.

The most pressing matters were reports of the September European I crisis showing gaps in Briusn defenses and Colonial Secretary Malcolm MacDonald's considered conclusions as to what should be done to end weeks of Arab-Jewish strife in the Holy Land, a British mandate. There was a widespread belief that both the Colonial Secretary and the members of the newest Royal Commission to Palestine were convinced a plan to split Palestine into Arab, Jewish and British sections would never work. A recommendation for administration of the Holy Land as a unified state, with further restrictions of Jewish immigration, is expected. New Hitler Pacts Pending. In the immediate offing was the Premier's determination to consolidate the Sept, 29 peace of Munich by separate agreements with Adolf Hitler.

Chamberlain returned to London this morning from a fishing holiday in Scotland. Chamberlain's first task was to fill the vacancy caused by the resig nation of Alfred Duff Cooper as First Lord of the Admiralty in protest against the Munich accord for the partition of Czechoslovakia. Some sources predicted an early ratification of the Anglo-Italian Easter friendship agreement, as part of Italian legionnaires are be- 4 ing withdrawn from Spain. New Spur to Arms. A further spur to British rearma ment came with the publication of a Blue Book on the case involving Duncan Sandys, member of Parliament.

Testimony heard by a parliamentary committee on Sandys' complaint he was threatened by the Government under the official secrets (espionage) act showed Sandys had alleged there were only half enough guns to defend London in the event of war. A Liberal manifesto sharply condemned Chamberlain's policy of sacrificing Czechoslovakia to Germany and initiating "an armed and precarious truce necessitating a colossal and instant expenditure on arms." The Liberals said: "The Government surrendered to a threat of violence without consulting Parliament," possibly isolated Soviet Russia, discredited moderate elements in Germany and Italy, and instituted "a grave decline in British influence in the councils of the world." As the result of its conclusions, the party decided it must dedicate itself to self-defense without regard for party considerations and "strive in concert with other Powers to remove the causes of war, not by concessions to truculence, but by justice to all peoples."

TAYLOR Lodge Seeks Accounting After Ex-Financial Secretary Demands $45,000 Pay. A demand by William H. Taylor, 80-year-old former financial secretary of Excelsior Lodge No. 18, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, for $45,000 for his services during the 50 years he managed the lodge finances led to the filing of a suit yesterday by the trustees of the organization for an accounting by Taylor of his stewardship. Taylor resigned last March after making his demand for compensa tion.

Seen yesterday at his home, 4448 West Belle place, he told a Post-Dispatch reporter he had refused to make an accounting "be cause the lodge owes me $45,000. Taylor, a real estate and insur ance 1 man, said the services on which he based his claim included the leasing of the old Odd Fellows Building, Ninth and Olive streets, in which Excelsior Lodge owned ninth interest. He said he also participated, without compensa- tion, in negotiations leading to the sale of the building, and added that he intended to consult an attorney about his claim. Arthur Simpson, an attorney, who succeeded Taylor as, financial sec retary and as a trustee, told the reporter that Taylor resigned after being pressed for an accounting for 1937. Excelsior No.

18, formerly known as the "Silk Stocking Lodge," was founded in 1846. Tay lor, because of his business expe rience, was recognized as the fi nancial man" of the organization and his management of its -busi ness affairs was unsupervised, Simpson said. His advanced age caused the demand for an accounting. Simpson examination oi tne ex celsior records indicated, he said, that the lodge assets approximated $95,000. A safety deposit box was found to contain bonds and notes amounting to $34,995, and Taylor turned over to his successor $22,280 in bonds and notes and $364 in cash.

The trustees' suit demands and ac counting of approximately $38,000 in additional assets. Taylor's son, James J. Taylor, and is daughters, Frances and Florence Taylor, are named co-defendant with their father in the suit, which states that the father has conveyed title to city and county real estate to his children.

Under the full dominion of Christ that could not be." In another speech, Archbishop John J. Glennon of St. Louis, said: The founding fathers of the re public labored assiduously to prevent what is rightly condemned today unwieldy overcentralization of Government; and to preserve What is unduly criticised, namely, a rugged individualism. "It is true that the Individual must make many sacrifices to pro mote the common well-being; it does not mean that, at the behest of a totalitarian state, we must give up our naturale rights or those of our children. It does not mean that we must turn from Christ to the worship of a glorified state." Rain drenched th-s 50,000 persons who attended yesterday's mass.

Hundreds fled for the shelter of trees surrounding the special altar built in the field that had been a football gridiron. Many of the Bishops and Archbishops sat through. the downpour as long as they could with rain dripping down their faces from their mitres. CANAL ZONE SAFEGUARDS AGAINST SPIES INCREASED Army Heads Start Weeding Out Civilian Employes of German and Italian Nationality. By the Associated Press.

BALBOA, Canal Zone, Oct. 19. Major-General David L. Stone, commander of the United States army's Panama Canal Department, increased safety measures for Canal Zone defenses today as a result of the arrest Sunday of four Germans accused of photographing strategic fortifications. Army post commanders have started weeding out civilian employes of German and Italian nationality.

Rudolf Fielmoser, an Austrian who for the last two years has operated a beer garden at Albrook Field, the army airport, was dismissed without notice. Gen. Richard D. Moore, commander of the Canal Department's Atlantic sector, heads a list of witnesses United States District Attorney J. J.

McGuigan will introduce tomorrow at a preliminary hearing for the four Germans now in custody under $15,000 bail. McGuigan has sent photographs of the four to United States District Attorney Lamar Hardy in New York in the belief they might have had some connection with spy suspects on trial now in New York.

The chief Shinto priest entered, followed by dignitaries. In a chant, the priest called to the spiirts Of the dead to follow him and take their allotted places inside the shrine. Two hours later a carriage symbolizing the gods of loyalty was wheeled inside, signifying entry of the souls of the sol diers. Wearing an army uniform, the Emperor offered a green branch of a sacred tree, decorated with white paper to dispel all evil spirits. Neither sound nor movement betrayed the emotions of.

the mourners, many of whom were fatherless children. Ultimately all'thosa killed In the Chinese warfare will be enshrined at Yasukuni. Since this will be done over a period of years, some time will elapse before Japan's complete casualty list will be known. SCHOOL BOARD COMMITTEES FOR YEAR ARE APPOINTED Dr. David C.

The mailman and a friend, union labor executive, started it when they learned the child had her right leg amputated because of a bone infection. They knew of a man who got an artificial leg as a premium for 46,000 cigar coupons, so they asked the girl's father Capt. Erwin Hess of Suburban Whitefish Bay fire department, if they might do the same thing for nis aaugnter. That was last May. Since that time the campaign has spread through the suburb and to many parts or POLICE FIND MARIJUANA; SEIZE 5 NEGRO MUSICIANS Arrests Made In Night Club; 26 of tne cigarettes in Trumpet Case.

19. Families of 10,344 war dead viewed in sacred Yasukuni Shrine today the ancient rites consigning to immortality the souls of the dead. The annual festival reached a climax when Emperor Hirohito visited the shrine to add his imperial prayers to those of the nation. At that instant sirens and whistles wailed in Tokyo and its environs, calling the people to a moment of silent devotion. Thousands of relatives and friends of this group of war dead and patriotic pilgrims from the provinces had arrived in the capital for the ceremonies.

Yasukuni Shrine Is Japan's Valhalla, and it is believed that the soul of a soldier killed in action needs only the proper rites to enter. Thus when soldiers leave for the front or go into battle their saying is: "If you wish to see me again GOV. MARLAND DENIES Oklahoma Executive Says He Didn't Handle Funds in Senatorial Campaign. By the Associated Press. SAN ANTONIO, Oct.

19. Charges published in the Tulsa World that more than $25,000 in tribute had been exacted from Western Arkansas wholesale liquor dealers in the recent senatorial campaign of Gov. E. W. Marland of Oklahoma were branded "the result of a bootleggers quarrel" by Mar-land today.

Marland, returning from Mexico, stated here that he was "greeted with news of the charges as he entered Texas. He was perusing a stack of Oklahoma newspapers in his hotel room when interviewed here. "From the clippings, it appears to me that this quarrel is among the bootleggers as to who gets the business," he stated. The Tulsa World has charged that during January and February of this year more than $25,000 had been "exacted." It charged neighboring states shipped in liquor labelled "canned goods" and Mar-land's inspectors accepted bills of lading without inspecting shipments. "Tribute" of 50 cents on each case of the "canned goods" was exacted by inspectors and went to the senatorial campaign funds, the paper charged.

To this charge Marland answered: "I never handled any funds and I didn't run the campaign. He cited the denial of Jess Larson, his senatorial campaign manager and secretary of the Oklahoma State Land School which was quoted in the Oklahoma newspapers. As to failure to examine the shipments, Marland stated: "Where it is interstate commerce, I don't believe they can legally examine the contents. I think they can if the shipment is just meant for Oklahoma." 5 WOMEN KILLED IN AUTO CRASH CAUSED BY BLOWOUT Four Persons in Other Car Injured In Accident Near Duanes-burg, N. Y.
