Out standing among the latter was a proposal to" make boards of stewards in local churches boards of lay activities. Dr. P. W. Few of Duke university presided.

Opposition to reorganization of general boards was voiced in an other statement wnen tne general board on lay activities en dorsed a recommendation that its membership be left intact, reflecting an action of the board last summer.

April 25. (Fingerprints taken from beneath stamps on letters sent through the mails are just one means the department of justice has used to identify criminals, J. H. Hanson, agent in charge of the Birmingham, office, told the Tennessee-Mississippi sheriffs and peace officers in convention here today. The government in Washington has the largest crime laboratory in the world with the largest collection of finger, prints, he said.

Rhea Whitley, agent in charge of the New Orleans office, said that the indifference of the public has changed to one of co-operation. He urged the officers to take advantage of the services of the department. The officers revealed that part of their staffs had been detailed now on the Dillinger case, including S. Connelly, of Cincinnati; Homer Wells, of Memphis, and M. Hilligoss.

of Ocean Springs, Miss District Attorney Clifton Cowan of Gulfport, told the officers that it cost the United States a year to enforce criminal laws and that the "crime population" of the United States was "$145,000 daily." The productive value of those in law enforcement agencies also was a large figure. Clayton Rand, of Gulfport, Miss Carl Marshall, Bay St. Louis, and Walter Wadlington, Biloxl also spoke. Tomorrow, CMnt Vinson, mayor of Meridian, and Gaston Hewes, of Gulfport, are scheduled to speak.

"He continued with that even until 1931, when Senator Freling-huysen (Joseph S. Frelinghuysen, one of the contributors to the anti-Smith cause) came back from Europe in 1931 and he (Cannon) hinted in a postscript to his letter that he would not have to report his contribution." Referring to the defense contention that there existed two committees, he said: "They say there was two committees, that they had the same name, the same stationery and practically the same officers. "Two committees with the same name? What a skillful defense "He conceived this fabulous tale that there were two committees of the same name." Of Cannon's testimony on the stand, Wilson observed: "What vaccilation, what equivocation existed in the mind of that man!" Fulton said the government had failed to prove that there did not exist two committees to handle funds during the campaign, one of which was headed by Cannon and the other which the defense had contended spent money only in one state and was not required to report its expenditures.

The defense attorney also argued that the contributions by Edwin C. Jameson, a New York insurance executive, upon which the charges were based, were made to Bishop Cannon as an individual and not to an organization. "Who testified that there was not a state committee?" he asked "You must believe that the- government was awfully hard put to use that argument to convict two people whose lives have been lives of morality, religion and education." The defense argument will be concluded tomorrow by Robert H. McNeill, chief defense counsel and Cannon's personal attorney. Leslie C.

Garnett, district attorney, will make the final speech before instructions are given to the jury. Court officials predicted the case would be placed in the hands of the jury some time during the afternoon.

DEPOSED RULER OBJECT OF HUNT Federal Officials Hunt Cuban Official to Serve Warrant NEW YORK. ADdl 25. () Gerardo Machado, deposed president of Cuba, once known for his iron rule of the island republic, was made the object of an intensive search tonight by United States marshals, detectives and police. The Herald-Tribune said it understood a warrant seeking his arrest in extradition" proceedings brought by the Cuban government had been issued by United States Commissioner Garrett W.

SANDERS PLANNING TO HELP FARMERS BATON ROUGE April 25 (fP) Ctongressman-ctesignate Jared Sanders, of Baton Rouge victorious in yesterday's run-off primary in the turbulent sixth congressional district, today mapped out plans to aid distressed Louisiana strawberry farmers and indicated he will resume his accustomed seat as state senator at the coming legislative session before taking up his duties in Washington.

Sanders, whose campaign for congress was 'itched on an anti-Long fight, was returned a "inner by sixth district voters over Harry D. Wilson, veteran state commissioner of agriculture and -self-asserted independent candidate for the post held by the late Bolivar E. Kemp. Coach Tranny Lee Gaddy gave his Millsaps Majors a final drill yesterday afternoon, straightening out the kinks which developed on the recent extended road trip, and the Militants are ready to clash with Mississippi College in the third of a six-game series on the local diamond at 3:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon.

A slight rest period since the Friday and Saturday engagements with the Bulldogs of Louisiana Tech has improved the Chocs playing and practice sessions appear to have eased the number of errors committee by the Tribesmen, and the Braves are hopeful of putting as classy a fielding group on the field Thursday and Friday as has been seen here in some time. Due to some very lively competition on part of candidates for several of the infield positi-as, the fielding in that department has been steadily on the upgrade.

On short John Haley was replaced by the rookie, Alfred Odom in the two most recent tilts, and Odom gave very good accounts of himself in both contests. Captain Bob Davis is being rushed for the responsibilities of the keystone bag by Gene May a reserve of last year who has hit hard on every occasion offered him. Captain Davis, however, appears to have the upper hand on the fielding. On first base, first Etring honors are a toss up between Ray Hunt and P. D.

Davis. Hunt Is considerably stronger than his rival at the bat, but can hardly be considered his equal in fielding.

Presenting one of the most well balanced programs in the history of its repeatedly successful and uniformly high-class entertainments, the Ole Miss Musical club was greeted by a packed house at the Central High school auditorium here last night. Sponsored by the Jackson alumni of the University, scores of former Ole Miss students and hundreds of Jackson music lovers received the club presentation "with frequent and loud applause, and again encoring the various numbers. Probably the Mississippians, peppy college orchestra, won the most sustained applause, though it would be hard to single out any part of the program or any individual singer or musician as the most meritorious, because of the extremely high quality of the ptit.iro nrnsram.

The glee club presented a group of well trained ana talented singers, whose selections, semi-classical for the most part, won high acclaim. Particularly impressive was the appearance of the singers as a vestred cathedral choir, clad in the white choir robes, and raising their voices in beautiful hymnal tribute with softly soothing wiiiriniw spipctinns. Lisrhts were dimmed and cathedral candelabras supplied the proper scenic effect to this truly inspiring section oa the program. Mrs. Laura T.

Martin, a lyric soprano of great talent, and who is the accomplished director of fth niee club, added a touch of vocal perfection with two solo uumiDers. Other soloists were Herbert Holmes leader of the orchestra, and George Everett, club soloist, both of whom showed exceptional talent and training. Holmes' solo selections in accompaniment with the orchestra proved parti cularly popular. The quartet, composed of George "Rverett. nresident of the club." Lee Stokes, Edwin Brooks, and George Buffaloe caught the popular fancy, and merited prolonged applause, while stoKes, wno lormeriy attended Millsaps college, regaled the audience with a piano novelty selection that brought two encores.

The Mississfooians feaured the third and concluding part of the program, and were exceptionally well received as they syncopated tuneiul popular airs ranging irom "red not rytnym" to more sooui inar melodies. At the conclusion of the pro-cram. b.11 former students of Ole Miss were called to the stage to join in the singing- or "Alma Mater.

Louis Park, Minneapolis suburb ohn Hamilton, another, was "seen" at the In dianapolis airport. Scores of "tips' came to middlewestern police that crews of three to five men, armed, had been sighted in one city or another, usually travel ing, as is the Dillinger habit, with one or more women. -In Washington the house judic iary committee hastened to arm the federal government with new power to fight criminals. It ap' proved laws by which robbing a national bank or assaulting or killing a federal officer, would be federal offenses. Unsuccessful in grabbing Dillinger, his pursuers were closing in on his funds, as well as his girl friends.

A Racine, detective located $3,000 in Dillinger loot in a Chicago It was securities taken last 'November in a machine gun raid oh the American Bank and Trust' company. The world watched the hunt, and heard some fancy accounts of; it. One newspaper told its readers "even some Red Indians Joined the hunt today, with bows and arrows." It added that a veritable army of citizens was on the trail, the army of lumberjacks armed with pickaxes -farmers with shotguns and laborers with pitchforks." The petition asking suspension of Purvis charged the agents were "stupid and reckless" in their attempts to capture Dillinger and criticized them for, alleged failure to counsel with persons familiar with the resort region. Purvis, told of the petition, said: "I never comment on things of that kind." TAX EVASION TRIAL SET AT ORLEANS NEW ORLEANS, April 25 (JPy The scheduled trial of Robert L.

G. Borah. Mr. Gay was recently indicted on the charges by. a federal grand jury.

He is a personal and political friend or senator Huey p. Contests in the Interclass track meet at Central High were wound up yesterday afternoon when the senior events were run off on the Millsaps field. Junior events preceded the finals on Tuesday and the Sophomore contestants opened the big interclass meet with their runoffs Monday afternoon. Comparatively few members of the twelfth grade showed up yesterday for the senior meet, but this was to be expected as the members of the graduating class only have a few more weeks of school and could hardly round themselves into shape for any meets in the limited For the third successive day no girls turned out for the class meet. Coach Broyles attributed the scarcity of girls to the fact that several other programs and entertainments have been presented this week and that rehearsal and presentation of these prohibited the girls from giving the time to track meet.

Despite the lack of the number of girls which had been hoped for, all other indications point to the meet as being very successful. Several of the outstanding discoveries of this week were to be seen yesterday going methodically through their paces and beginning to look more i like athletes and less like the raw recruits that turned up Monday and Tuesday. Spectators described one of the sprinters of the sophomore group as "plenty fast" and he was not the only one who has made a favorable impression' on the coaches and members of the side-line corps. A new jumping pit in the course of construction yesterday several yards above the vaulting pit, and as soon as it has been completed it will be possible for both jumpers and vaulters to work out at the same time without interfering with each other. Coach Broyles used work on the new pit as a conditioning exercise to build up the wind and arms of the new runners and field men.

Results of the junior meet held Tuesday afternoon were as listed below: 100 yard dash: Stevens, first; Barrett, Armstrong, Dear. 12 3 Mile run: Dear, first; Barrett, Armstrong, Robertson, 6:16. 220 yard dash: Dear, first; Wells, Stevens, tie for second. 440 yard dash: Shelton, Wells, Stevens, Montgomery. 880 yard: Shelton, Stevens.

Toler. offering locations for the camp, among wnicn is Meridian, which General Leach and members visit ed yesterday. Vicksburg is also seeking the camp and has made elaborate prep arations for General Leach's enter tainment today.

Mayor J. C. Hamil ton of the hill city, announced yesterday that all is in readiness for the big alligator hunt. The Vicksburg mayor and Alderman Buchanan and Williamson reported they had located the dens of several large alligators at Little Four Lakes, several miles north of the city, and said there is every likelihood that General Leach will be able to bag one of them. Congressman Ross Collins and General Grayson will be honor guests on the hunt and Governor Mike Conner had been invited but is not expected to take part because of the serious illness of Mrs.

Conner in a New Orleans hospital. Following the alligator hunt the official party will go to Eagle Lake for the night and will be given an opportunity for early morning fishing.
