It was Stuart's dominating leadership which had accomplished their approval and cooperation. "And just to show you that we eat our own duck soup and like it, Lizetta and I will open the program. Is that fair enough?" There was unanimous approval. "Who is number two?" "The second act will be Tatro and McDonald." Jim called out in the voice of circus barker.

He next petitioned Gov. James Rolph to commute his death sentence to life imprisonment, but the governor has no power to do this without supreme court authorization because Fleming has a prior felony conviction against his record.

The petition consequently was referred to the state supreme court, which in turn asked District Attorney Mussell if he desired to make a recommendation. According to the prosecutor, Fleming's sentence cannot be altered by the governor unless the commutation is approved by the majority of the seven justices of the su which you undertook to manage would be a success."

The American farmer, once the strongest pillar of prohibition, sought through a spokesman today to be assured of the financial benefits of repeal of the eighteenth amendment. "Now that repeal seems inevitable, the farmers have a right to insist that the distillers use homegrown grain in the manufacture of spirituous beverages," said a statement left behind by five western governors who came here in an unsuccessful attempt to win a drastic price fixing program for farm relief.
