Rift Grows After McKay Accusation in Woman's Case Tw Superior Court judges took up cudgels in the fracas between Judge William R. McKay and the District Attorney's office yesterday over consolidation of the Bette Slaymaker check cases and refused to abide by Judge McKay's orders placing the cases pending against her in Long Beach and Pasadena in his court for trial. The row broke out Wednesday when Judge McKay accusM deputies of Dist. Atty. Howser'a Long Beach and Pasadena branch offices with "rank and absolute violation of court orders." Judge's Allegation Judge McKay alleged the deputies had failed to follow his instructions under which he had sought to save Mrs.

Slaymaker, a reported expectant mother, long automobile rides to the outlying courts for various hear-in srs. Yesterday, Judge Leslie Still of the Long Beach court accused Judge McKay of having a "highhanded and czaristic attitude" in the Slaymaker case. "No permission on my part had been granted for consolidating the cases," Judge Still declared in his letter to Judsre McKay. "You had no Jurisdiction under the court rules to take any action regarding this case without my approval. I had no knowledge that there was another case of the people vs.

Slaymaker in any other branch court of the county Beat." No Request Received Judge Frank C. Collier of the Pasadena branch also said he would refuse to consolidate the cases and declared he had received no request for variance in court procedure. "The case against Mrs. Slaymaker will go on next Monday whether She has counsel or not," Judge Collier declared. Judpe Collier also defended Dep.

M. Leon Blum (pronounced does not look like a man who, having staggered past threescore years, would take it into his head to write a book on "Marriage" which would cause blushes in any language.

VISITOR a 1 1 of fact, neither does he look like the iort of a person junder whose administration French work-men got in the habit of assuming recumbent positions on the floors of their factories, thereby launching a world-wide wave of sit-down strikes and leaving their country without weapons when the Nazis hove in view. Chances are that M. Blum was not totally responsible for the French industrial collapse, and some people say he wasn't any too responsible when he wrote that book, but, at all events, M. Blum would like very much to have people forget about both those more or less notable moments in his career and listen carefully while he explains why Jt would be smart for us to open up a charge account for La Belle France at the United States Treasury. CONFERENCE Truth is that M.

Blum puts up a very good argument. He held a press conference out at the Embassy this week. He sat there at a table flanked on his right by Ambassador Henri Bonnet and on his left by a fellow who looks like a Frenchman, answers to the British name of John Herbert and talks like a Frenchman or an Englishman with equal facility. He is one of the top United Nations interpreters (you may have seen photos gf him wearing a black mustache that makes him look the way Hank Mann used to in Keystone comedies) and the fact that he was brought down from Hunter College to interpret for M. Blum is a pretty good indication of the importance the French place on having M.

Blum correctly interpreted. CAGEY M. Blum wears a gray suit, a vest, a hanky peeping from his breast pocket but not as neatly folded as Harry Truman's, and two pairs of hornrimmed spectacles which he changes from time to time. He has a grayish mustache and a sense of humor. He had notes written on yellow paper and when he had finished his prepared statement "he said he would answer questions, adding with a smile, "On ce donne au torture," which M.

Herbert did not deign to translate, for some reason. M. Herbert referred to him always as le President Blum" and M. Blum spoke at considerable length explaining, with good logic, why it would be good business for us to extend a line of credit to his country. TIME The conference went on for about an hour and finally one of the reporters tried to break it up with the "Thank you, Mr.

President," which is a signal for all hands to dash for the taxis in this town. M. Blum let out a cry of anguish and confessed that he was prepared to answer one more question one which he had expected someone to ask but which, alas, no one had been sufficiently thoughtful to do and therefore he would have to bring the subject up himself. He then argued that the best way to beat postwar deflation which might come through the surplus production of good3 was to let our friends overseas have them, and he cited a lot of statistics which, he said, proved his point ARGUMENT He's a pretty cagey fellow, M. Blum.

He could, he said, quickly solve one problem shipping. The United States, he understood, has lot3 of ships and few sail-, ors; France has no ships and many sailors. Solution let France have the ships. He said Frenchmen want to work. He said by 1930 they'll be on their feet.

He quoted Henry Ford II that French workmen are excellent workers. He said French coal miners are back to peacetime production levels now. And he. coined a little "mot" for the occasion. "Peace," he said, "is indivisible and so is prosperity!" nity, said: "Violence and crime Inevita bly follow gambling and, while ing that entire time.

He is a very able prosecutor," Judge Collier wrote to Judge McKay. some of the people up here might enjoy a bit of gambling themselves, they certainly would not want any gambling barges Dist. Atty. Howser, who has couldn't afford to buy an incubator. Yesterday Ramon proudly showed how he used a discarded electric heater, some scrap lumber, an old sheet, a bit of cardboard and a cheap thermometer to fill the bill.

More proudly he and Senora Carbajal pointed to Ramon who now weighs 11 pounds and has a veritable Palm Springs tan. The baby lived in an incubator at General Hospital for 10 weeks, by which time he weighed 5 pounds and was removed to his home at 645 Alpine St. He was transferred to a wicker basket which rests atop an old steamer trunk inclosed by the five-foot-high incubator of wood Son Born to Director and Mrs. William Wyler The two young daughters of Film Director William Wyler launched an investigation into Judge McKay's charges, was in Vice-Consul Here News of the appointment of Vinicius de Morais, now in Rio de Janeiro, to the post of Vice-Consul for Brazil here, has been received by Consul Affonso Portugal, it was disclosed yesterday by Chancellor A.

Anderson had claimed $25,000 on the basis of an agree ment assertedly made with Miss Velez in November, 1944, and which provided that she would take care of a child Miss Velez then expected would be born to her and Harold Ramond, actor. When Miss Velez killed herself Dec 13, 1944. she left a note expressing inability to face an unwed mother's "shame." The will gave Mrs. Beulah Kinder, Miss Velez's secretary, one-third of the estate and provided that the rest be set up in two trusts, each to yield $150 a month for Miss Velez's mother, Mrs. Josefina Veipz of Mexico City, and her father.
