STATE FINISHES DRENNAN CASE In Red" Expected To Testify During Murder Trial NEW BRUNSWICK, N. Oct (U. --The state rested today in the murder trial of 20-year-old Margaret Drennan, the "woman in red" who shot Paul Reeves to death and watched him die in the presence of his two small children the night of September 7. The prosecution concluded its case after presenting witnesses who testimy fled that the Iselin, N. secretarial student had identified the death weapon as her father's .32 caliber pistol and had admitted being near the Reeves home after the shooting.

Detective Walter L. Simpson of Prosecutor Charles Morris' staff said he took a statement from Miss Drennan. "I showed her the gun and asked her recognized it," he testified. said, 'Yes, it is my father's She said she had taken it from home and later returned it. telling her father what she had done." Simpson was one of the last group of witnesses to testify before the state closed its case against the girl who told officers that Reeves, handsome married mill hand, seduced her in August and tried to attack her again when she called at his house to discuss her approaching mother- hood.

Police Captain John Egan of Woodbridge and County Detective Stephen Drosdick were other prosecution witnesses during the morning session. Egan said that Miss Drennan, whose red coat worn the night of the slaying led to her arrest, admitted to him that she was near the Reeves home after the shooting and had told 8. neighbor of the Reeves that she was "John Drennan's daughter." Drosdick testified concerning bullet holes in the Reeves home and the Anding of three empty cartridges. Defense Counsel George Burton in cross-examining Simpson asked the detective if he knew of a previous statement taken from the girl when he was questioning her about the gun. "Yes," he said, "but I do not recall who told me about it." Defense counsel said Miss Drennan would testify but did not indicate just when she would reach the stand.

The state attempted to prove that she had submitted willingly to Reeves, and then had killed him while his two young children locked on. Dr. Morris Horenstein, hospital interne, testified that an examination of Reeves' body indicated that an intimacy had preceded the shooting. Miss Drennan is expected to ask the jury to believe that she killed in defense of her honor; that the unwritten law justifies a woman in killing, if necessary, to resist criminal attack. Five witnesses testified yesterday that Reeves' body was nude except for socks.

Miss Drennan will testify that he appeared before her unclothed when she entered his home by appointment to discuss her condition. She will say that he pursued her into the kitchen. and that there, during struggle, she shot him with her father's revolver. Witnesses told of having seen a girl in a flaming red coat running from the house after the shooting. Only one could identify that girl as Miss Drennan.

Before concluding his case today, Prosecutor Charles M. Morris planned to present to the jury the "confession" which Miss Drennan made to police.

20-(U. Pennsylvania voters will be asked to decide by ballot Nov. 2 whether favor an amendment to the state's basic law to permit legislative enactment of a graduated income tax along lines of the present Federal impost. That amendment, approved by 1935 1937 Legislatures and ready a referendum, is the most important of five proposed constitutional changes to be considered at the municipal election. Fostered by Gov.

George H. Earle during the last two legislative sessions, "a means of reducing the tax buron real estate for school purposes," the proposal is being discussed throughout the state by Democratic administration leaders. Considered by Republican State Chairman G. Edward Green as "just another means of providing more money for politicians to fool around with," the is opposed generally by Republican leaders. The basic law at present prohibits levying of a graded tax, varying with income.

It says all taxes shall uniform on the same class of subjects. Under the proposed amendment portion of Section 1, Article 9 of the Constitution would be changed to read: "Uniformity shall not be required in the case of income, inheritance, estate and other excise taxes which may be graded, or graduated, and provide for exemptions; but all such taxes shall levied and collected under general laws." The proposed amendment does not stipulate how much money shall be raised or for what purpose by taxing incomes. It merely would permit the Legislature to go to work on those subjects. Governor Earle has indicated will present an income tax bill to special Legislature next year, the voters approve the amendment. He also has announced he favors using the money so raised for school purposes to relieve real estate.

In 1935, the General Assembly passed a graduated income tax act, estimated to have yielded $25,000,000 annually and earmarked the money for schools. The State Supreme Court declared the act unconstitutional. Its provisions were: Rates on net and less, exclusive of exemptions, 000. per cent annually; $5,000 to $10,000, per cent; $10,000 to $50,000, 4 per cent; $50.000 and up, 6 per cent. Exemptions Unmarried.

married or head of family, for each dependent, $400. The amendment proposal will listed on the Nov. 2 ballots as "No. and will read as follows: "Shall Section One of Article Nine of the Constitution be amended provide that income, inheritance, estate, and uniform, other but excise may be taxes graded, need and to provide for exemptions; to provide that the Legislature, in dealing with the property taxes, may exempt from taxation a uniform value each person's property, the taxmoney of the total taxable, value able value of homesteads?"

ALLEGED VICTIM FACES GOLFER Jury For John Montague's Robbery Trial Still Being Selected ELIZABETHTOWN, N. Oct. 20- (U. -The man John Montague is alleged to have beaten in a roadhouse holdup seven years ago walked into court today and took a chair 10 feet away from the mystery man of Hollywood who is on trial on robbery charges.

His name is Matt Cobb, an elderly man whose eyes bored into Montague's face as though he were trying to roll back the years and decide whether this was the bandit who smashed him on the head with a blackjack. Montague, busily consulting with his lawyers on the selection of jurors, paid no attention to Cobb. The elderly man sat with his daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Hanna. With them was Mrs.

Hanna's husband, Kin. It was in Kin Hanna's roadhouse in August, 1930, that Montague was alleged to have committed the crime for which he is on trial. Cobb was so severely beaten during the holdup that his hearing was impaired. He cupped his hand to his ear today, trying to hear the droning conVersation that went on during the selection of jurors. Montague's broad shoulders were hunched over the defense table and his fingers twiddled a pencil.

Occasionally theme scribbled notes and passed to his lawyer, James Noonan. the legends concerning Montague's strength and golfing ability seemed to make no impression on Essex county residents. The courtroom was hardly half filled. To these people he is Laverne Moore, a local boy who has been living in California for seven years and this court proceeding is just another routine robbery trial. Six Jurors were in the box when court convened and counsel immediately began questioning veniremen drawn from a new panel.

The seventh juror chosen was Denton Gill, a truck driver, from Wilmington, N. Y. Walter Keith, carpenter from Westport. N. was sworn in as juror No.

8. The ninth juror was Clayton Lockwood, carpenter from Schroonlake. HARTMAN NAMED Local Man Appointed To Episcopal Commission John I.
