ADOLPH MENJOU HOLLYWOOD, Calif, Nov 30 (A P) Hollywood's haberdashers shook their heads in dismay today over a list of America's best dressed men as compiled by New York clothiers. Only one actor, Fred Astaire, was selected a shock to filmdom's design, ers and tailors. He received only a passing mention from the local judges who listed their own selections all from the motion picture industry. Adolph Menjou was not on the New York listanother shock. The actor, the home town clothiers Insisted, was not only the best-dressed man in America but the world at large.

They rated him as No. 1, followed by William Powell, Warren William, Gilbert Roland, Herbert Marsnall, Gary Cooper and Robert Montgomery, actors; Cedric Gibbons, Howard Hawks and Victor Fleming, directors, and Samuel Gpldwyn, producer. "It's nonsense to compile a list like this, and not start with Menjou," the leading movie colony designers. "He has the figure, the perfect eye and the perfect flair for wearing clothes."

After a death house interview with Hauptman yesterday Rev John Matthiesen. pastor of the Trinity Lutheran Church, Trenton, reported that he "practically" asked Hauptmann to confess if he were guilty.

The clergyman said he left Haupt-mann's cell convinced, of the condemned man's innocence. Hauptmann, he said, "is a gentleman and a child of God and a child of God does not lie." "Mr Hauptmann, you know why you're here," he said he asked. "Is there any way in which I can serve you? Have you anything to tell me?" "You may ask me any question you please. Ill be glad to answer it," the pastor said Hauptmann replied. Replaces New York Chaplain Mr Matthieson.

Hope that he may be alive was fading rapidly, because the past few nights have been cold and raw, with rain. The general belief Is that Durward became confused and wandered helplessly into the woods, Because of his age, it is not thought that he could endure much exposure. Yesterday there were 200 searchers out, spread at 20-foot intervals through the nearby woods, and they covered the forest patches near town pretty thoroughly.

Among the searchers were 125 members of the 1185th C. C. C. Company. Today, however, the C.

C. C. boys were not out, and the searching parties numbered only 25 or 30 men and boys. Tomorrow the American Legion members will gather, if necessary, for a Sunday hunt. It is a problem where to look, for the nearby places have been well searched.

Durward came from Scotland 50 years ago. He lived on a farm in the outskirts of Claremont until a few years ago, when he retired and come to live, with his wife, in the town. FRED H.

AROOSTOOK GROWERS LOSE Petition Denied in District of Columbia Court WASHINGTON, Nov 30 CAP) A petition by the Maine Potato Growers and Shipping Association for an order directing the Interstate Commerce Commission to reconsider its refusal to grant lower freight rates, was denied today by Justice James M. Proctor of the District of Columbia supreme Court. Stating that a fifth of the country's potatoes are produced in its area, the association contended that rates charged by the Baneor Aroostook Railroad Company for transportation of potatoes from the northern section of the state to Searsport. Me.

are un reasonable and unjust. At Searsport the potatoes are loaded aboard ships for eiistribution along the Atlantic coast. The potato growers appealed to the I. C. C.

in 1932. but their re quest for lower rates was denied. In refusing to issue a writ of mandamus. Justice Proctor stated that the commission had acted regularly and in a proper exercise of its discretion.

Mrs Fahnestock, 34-year-old mother of two children, was taken to a New York hospital several weeks ago for treatment of a nervous disorder. She and Snowden A. Fahnestock were divorced in October.

Hospital officials gave her permission -to visit on Thanksgiving Day the East 64th st home of her aunt and uncle, Mr and Mrs Edward Spring Knapp, who also are prominent in New York society. At their home Thursday night she visited a cousin, sick in bed on the third floor, and fell from the window of a nearby room a few minutes later.

WILL ROGERS FUND "TAGDAY" DEC IJ Aviation Demonstration to Be a Feature Dee 14, "Tag Day" in Boston for the Will Rogers Memorial, will be a day of considerable activity in a variety of ways, in the interests of the fund. There will be an impressive aviation demonstration in which it is expected about 100 airplanes will participate. The state Will Rogers memorial committee expects that Eddie Rickenbacker, World War ace and close friend of Will Rogers, will lead this great squadron in its evolutions. Over the radio, a dozen or more speakers and entertainers will honor the memory and character of Will Rogers.

The speakers will not tell the public who Will Rogers was. That would be superfluous. They will tell what the Will Rogers Memorial will mean to the citizens of the United States in the future, and "the man-on-the-street" and everybody who realizes that it was Will Rogers who helped, as much as any otherman in the country, to calm a panic-stricken people in the early days of the depression. His humorous, but common sense comments restored the sanity tl many people in those stormy days. Chairman P.

A. O'Connell. at the meeting of th Massachusetts Will gers Memorial Committee in the State House yesterday afternoon said: "I wish Will Rogers were alive today just to get his opinions on some of the things that are going on in the world. He could puncture in a few words some of the diplomatic bluffs and shams that are going on in Europe and a few things that need attention in this country. We never half appreciated him at his- true worth when he was alive.

But we must not forget him." Ralph Efstman reported that the" "talking horse" will surely be a fea ture of "Tag Day." Miss Smith and Mrs MacDonald reported that an or ganization of young women had been perfected to take up Tag Day sub scriptions, on the streets and in the stores and hotels. Secretary Harvey B. Kaplin jf the Burroughs Newsboys' Foundation re ported that several thousand accredited newsboys are ready to take part in the "Tag Day" work. On that day all solicitors will wear official arm bands. Hearty support in furthering the efforts of the fciate committee in the drive was unanimously voted upon at a general meeting of the foundation last night.

Reports on the meeting of persons interested in the memorial at the State House earlier in the day were made by Samuel Cramer, former Mayor of the Newsboys Foundation, and Harry B. Kaplin, executive secretary. Harry Marden, present mayor of the organization, and Samuel Naglin, president of the alumni, were chosen to guide the activity of the Newsboy Foundation in the drive. Mrs M. H.

Gulesian has arranged for art E. R. A. Band to play on the Parkman Bandstand from 2 to 3 fn, Dec 14 "Tag Day." Frank O'Connell and Frank A. Chance, from the Cambridge city committee of the Will Rogers memorial, reported that Cambridge will have a complete organization at work on "Tag Day" and will also attend to collections in the various city departments.

Mrs Arthur L. Race reported that the hotel committee, of her husband, Arthur Race, is chairman, is busy taking up collections in the hotels of the city. William Taylor of the Boston city committee outlined a plan which had been formulated, to stimulate Interest through the pupils of the public schools. An offer of 20 percent on all sales of the book "Will Rogers" was laid on the table for consideration at the meeting of the committee next Mon day afternoon. The Mary Young Players at the Repertory Theatre are giving 40 percent of the net proceeds of all performances during the Will Rogers memorial campaign in Boston.

Nov 30 (A P) The United States Steel Corporation and the Union Pacific Railroad Company today applied to the Securities Commltsion for exemption from registration under the Holding Company act on the ground they are not utility holding companies.

The companies moved under a provision of the law exempting industrial and other corporations which engage only to a small extent in the utility business. The applications had little significance relative to the fight of the major utility holding companies against the act, under which most big systems already have refused to The applications apparently were prepared prior to a new commission rule, announced yesterday, giving blanket automatic exemptions, without the necessity even of filing pa pers, to such companies and to pre dominantly intrastate utility holding concerns. Additional applications today brought to more than a hundred the number of utility and other companies seeking exemption. Today's filings Included: Pacific and Electric Company and its subsidiary, Great Western Power Company of California. Pacific Gas stated neither it nor any of Its subsidiaries are subsidiaries of the North American Company, a major holding company which has already refused to register.

A group of related Iowa companies, as follows: Burlington Railway and Light Company, American Utilities Corporation, Denmark Light and Telephone Corporation, Trl-States Power Corporation, Frank H. Warren, Denmark Light Company receiver; the Burlington Improvement Company, Peoples Gas and Electric Company, Peoples Gas and Improvement Company, WATER FRONT NEWS S. Oapulin Arrives Three Days Behind Schedule Three days behind schedule as a result of meeting stormy weather on the Atlantic, the American Hampton Roads Line steamer Capulin, Capt Hickey, arrived this morning from Manchester and Liverpool, and because of the cargo congestion at the Army Base, where she generally unloads, the vessel was forced to dock at Pier 49, Mystic Docks, Charles-town. Capt Hickey reported a very rough crossinig, with head gales accompanied by rough seas being met at the very outset, and continuing throughout practically the entire passage. Heavy seas breaking over the decks smashed a hole in one of the vessel's lifeboats, but no other damage resulted.

After unloading about 700 tons of general cargo here the ship will pro ceed late tonight to New York. Phila- noltTr.r Mnrf1V I complete discharge. Telegraphic advices to the Maritime Association this morning from the west coast stated that the Osaka Shosen Kaisha motorship Kwanto Maru had a fire in her number five hold at Los Angeles yesterday that was only extinguished after firemen had fought it for six hours.

WRONG "12TH MAN" AT NEW HAVEN FOR GAME Mike Mesco Confesses George Larsen Was Man Who Tried to Aid Dartmouth WASHINGTON, Nov 30 (A P) Five charges of unconstitutionality were directed at the New Deal's farm program in a brief filed with the Supreme Court today by the Hoosac mills of Massachusetts. The brief, filed in reply to the Government's appeal of a Circuit Court decision holding the original A. A. A. taxes invalid, also agreed to a complete constitutional test of the A.

A. both as originally en acted and as amended at the last session in an effort to bolster it against constitutional attacks. Oral arguments in the case are scheduled for Dec 9. The Hoosac attorneys said their argument will be along five main lines: 1. "Congress exceeded its limited powers and trespassed upon powers reserved to the states and to the people in authorizing and applying the taxes under the A.

A. A. 2. "The processing and floor stock taxes are levied in violation of the fifth amendment," (by taxing one class for benefit of another). 3.

"Congress may not, under guise of the taxing power, assert a power not delegated to it by the Constitution. 4. "The floor stocks taxes are direct taxes and are void because not apportioned." 5. "The act is invalid in that It delegates legislative power to the Secretary of Agriculture." Amendments Cited by Both Sides There had been some question whether the A. A.

A. amendments, which ratified the scale of processing taxes fixed by Secretary Wallace, would be brought into the Hoosac case. Lower court rulings preceded the amendments, but the Government, in its appeal, cited the supplementary act. The Hoosac brief said the questions presented by this test case are: 1. "Whether the provisions of the A.

A. A. as originally enacted are 2. "If not, whether the attempted Two N. E.

Companies Registered New England Public Service Company and National Light, Heat and Power Company of registered. Additional applications for exemption included: Philadelphia Company, which in saying it was asking exemption under protest and under compulsion of the Holding Company act, asserted "that the said act is unconstitutional and void in its entirety." A joint application for exemption was made by the Central West Utility Company of Kansa- Central West Utility Company Missouri, Erndl Oil and Gas Company, Sigmund Stern, Paul D. Bartlett and H. T. Abernathy, voting trustees, and Stern Brothers Co.

Others included the Consolidated Coal Company and the Consolidated Power Company, Illinois corporations; Pittsburg and West Virginia Gas Company; Jersey Central Power and Light Company; Northern Indiana Public Service Company; Halsey, Stuart Co of Illinois; Standard Oil Company of California; Columbia Construction Company.

The brief said Government attorneys were attempting "to persuade the court to ignore altogether the existence of the scheme of production control," and to "focus attention upon two points only, first, that the statute levies a tax, and second, that the citizen has no standing to question an appropriation." "Not an Emergency Measure'' The mills also questioned that A. A.

A. was "an emergency measure." It added that "for over two years the enforcement of this measure has continued without any suggestion that its policies were to be changed or withdrawn."
