With mayors, civic organizations and members of the Bar widely split on tlie issue, the leaders believed a compromise was the only solution. Efforts to Include greater home rule for education appeared doomed after Mayor LaGuardia of New York Joined with up-State mayors In declaring it a State function. LaGuardia, however, differed with Mayors Rollin B.

Marvin of Syracuse and John Boyd Thacher of Albany. They opposed "drastic revision." Mayor Thomas Holling of Buffalo leaned toward the views of LaGuardia. He said unless "this convention does something, home rule for cities will be a thing of the past." Ask Broader Tax Base Both opponents and proponents agreed that some change was necessary. The heads of various localities said repeatedly that cities needed a broader tax base. "I will tell you gentlemen that our sources of revenue are limited and something will have to be done la the near future," LaGuardia said.

While nearly 3,000 persons appeared at a two-day public hearing before the Cities Committee on home-rule proposals, doubt still remained as to what would be done. Several proposals have been before the committee for some time, It was Indicated that their best features would be combined into one amendment. A "committee" amendment undoubtedly will be reported to the floor for discussion. Will Honor Elihu Root Delegates will return Monday night to honor the late Elihu Root, president of the 1915 convention. A special committee, headed by former Governor Alfred E.

Smith, has invited Representative James Wadsworth N. to speak. Tuesday the convention will consider Its first calendar, which contains three bills designed to strengthen banking laws. Other pro- posals will be reported during the week.

In tlie other five matches Hector Thomson of Scotland was six up on United States Amateur Champion Johnny Goodman; Leonard Crawley was four up on Johnny Fischer of Cincinnati; Charles Stowe one up on Charles (Chuck) Kocsis of Detroit; Gordon Peters three up on Reynolds Smith of Dallas, and Alex Kyle one up on Fred Haas Jr. of New Orleans.

Pearl Schmalzer was chairman, assisted by Mrs. Lillian Schwlnn and Mrs. Bessie Schwebel Princeton, June 4 (U.R) G-men took a new tack today in their determined campaign to find the body of 5H-year-old James Bailey Cash Jr. and bring his kidnapers to Justice. They decided that the criminals had been motivated by a desire for vengeance on the father almost as much as by a desire for money.

J. Edgar Hoover, head of the Fed eral Bureau of Investigation, directing a small army of G-men, personally interviewed tlie father in his apartment adjoining his general store last night. They were closeted for 45 minutes and when they left, Hoover's assistant carried a bundle of clothing understood to be the baby's clothing. It was reixrted that the father had gone over in detail his entire business career in this Redlands farming county, 25 miles south of Miami, and had named any enemies he had made. Acting on Hoover's orders, his men established semi-permanent headquarters here, indicating that the Federal determination to capture the criminals would not abate, no matter how long lt takes.

It was apparent that they had not a single clue to the whereabouts ot the child's body (no one believed that there was any but the barest possibility of his being yet alive) and very slender clues, if any, to the kid-naiiers. Though the authorities maintained the customary secrecy, it was a general impression that the case might drag on for weeks even months. There was striking contrast in the forces which the G-men assembled today to continue their search for the child or his body. Approximately 50 Seminole braves moved into the deep interior of the Everglade swamps where their tribe has lived for centuries, while overhead droned the most modern fighting planes of the Navy. The Navy authorized the use of all available aircraft in the region and several squadrons were taking off with the dawn from the Opa Lake base to fly over the Everglades and the most remote of the Florida keys.

The army of civilian volunteers whirl had covered all of the Red-lands farming district, almost all of the seafront, and the fringes of the Everglades in an inch-by-lnch search for a body anj for clues, was disbanded. Today marked the end of a week since Baby Jimmy was stolen. The kidnapers broke into the Cash home last Saturday night. Early Tuesday they collected their ransom. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the G-men questioned score and a one time had under arrest as many as eight men.

Today they held only M. F. Braxton, Princeton carpenter, safely through traffic and past other dangers, and classmates provided notes and read to him to help him keep up with his studies. "It was like having my sight." he commented, Despite his handicap. Mr, Caronia plays the piano, banjo, saxophone, guitar and mandolin.
