Polikoff would not reveal Mrs.
Reynolds’ whereabouts. She is
understood to be living in seclu

where she is nurturing the ap

Libby’s conversation with her
attorney when she learned of the
letter of W. N. Reynolds to So
licitor Higgins, follows:
Polikoff: “Can you stand
some good news?’’
Mrs. Reynolds: “Yes. of

some.”
Poikoff: “Mr. Will Reynolds
has asked Solicitor Higgins to
drop the case because the
Reynolds family doesn't think
there is enough evidence to jus

Mrs. Reynolds: “Oh, m,v God."
Polikoff: “It seems they want

Mrs. Reynolds: “What does
that mean?”
Polikoff: “It means that the
State may drop it now, but you

Mrs. Reynolds: “I don't want
that. I won’t stand for it. I
am innocent and they know it. ’

Young Reynolds Endearing Messages
To Libby Prompt Relatives’ New Move
WINSTON-SALEM. N. C..
Oct. 19 <lNS).—Reserved and
outwardly calm. W. N. Reynolds,
tobacco magnate, failed today to
give any signs of the turbulent
mental conflict that confronted
him when he suggested the drop
ping of prosecution in connection
with his nephew’s death.
He asked the State to drop the
murder charges against the
widow. Libby Holman Reynolds,
and Ab Walker, chum of the
dead boy. Zachary Smith Rey
nolds. only after letters and
cables from Smith to his bride
appeared to contradict his cher
fshed belief that his nephew was
too happy to think of suicide.
“Suicide Preferable”
The messages were sent to
Libby Holman at various times
when they were apart after their
secret marriage.
One, from Paris, sent to the
Broadway torch singer while she
was appearing in a show, read:
"Why return now? Meet you
later—but suicide is preferable.
This is the last cable. Good
bye. Love.”
The cable, in the light, of other
missives, was generally inter
preted as meaning Smith pre

Smith’s Uncle Writes Family Would
“Be Happy If Action Were Dropped”
WINSTON-SALEM. N. C., Oct.
19 (I.N.S.).—Following is the text
of the letter written by W. N.
Reynolds, uncle of the late Zach
ary Smith Reynolds, suggesting
that the indictments of the
widow; Libby Holman Reynolds,
nnd Ab Walker, be nolle prossed:
“Mr. Carlisle Higgins,
“Winston Salem. N. C.
“My Dear Mr. Higgins:
“Ever since the death of my
nephew. Smith Reynolds. I have
been very much interested in
and have given very carefnl
and thoughtful attention to
everything that I could learn
about that tragic occurrence.
Knowing Smith as I did. and
realizing the many fine traits
of character that he had, I
am convinced that his attitude
toward life was such that he
would never have intentionally
killed himself. Nothing that I
have been able to learn about
the case has been sufficient to
change m.v mind in that re
spect.
Evidence Lacking
“On the other hand, it is
equally true, in my opinion, and
in that of Smith's brother and
sisters, that the evidence fails
to prove conclusively that Smith
was murdered.
“I realize that the matter of
handling these indictments is
officially in your hands as the
representative of the State and
that no individual has or ought
to have anything to do with the
question of whether or not the
cases are prosecuted or are
dropped. But there has been
a great deal of comment and
speculation as to what the atti
tude of Smith’s family is to
ward these cases. *
“With that fact in mind, I am
taking the liberty of writing
you this letter byway of dis
closing that attitude and of
saying to you that if in the dis
charge of your further official
duties with respect to these
cases you come to the conclu
sion that it is right and fair
and in the public interest that
the cases be dropped, then that
action on your part will certainly
have no criticism from me or
!h>m the other members of
actly what I want and nothing
less. I am entitled to com
plete exoneration.”
Smith's uncle,* also co-guardian
for his nephew, who was to in
herit a $20,000,000 fortune in a
few years, decided upon his latest
move in the case after the family
attorneys advised him they had
been unable to find grounds for
prosecution.
Higgins Ponders Course
The law firm. Manley, Hendren,
and Womble, wrote Reynolds:
“We have been unable to dis
cover evidence which in our
opinion would justify us in ad
vising the family to join in
the prosecution of the indict
ment.”
Higgins, after receiving the
letter from Reynolds, said:
“I'll take plenty of time to
consider the matter. I shall
consider the letter carefully,
coming from the source that it
dees.
“After careful and deliberate
consideration, I shall make up
my mind regardless of who
wants this or that done. That
is my responsibility and I in
tend to follow it.”
In the letter to Higgins. Reyn
olds made it plain he realized the
case was officially In Higgins’
hands for disposition and that no
individual ought to determine
whether prosecuton should be
pushed.

On the same day, he wrote:
“Darling Angel:
“I would gladly come home
if you were not going on with
the show. I'll gladly give up
this • trip or anything I have
to devote all my time to be
with you. If you would do
the same for me.
“If I get to the point where
I simply cannot stand it with
out you another minute, well,
there’s the old Mauser with a
few cartridges in it.
“I guess I’ve had my inning.
It’s time another team went
to bat.”
It was “the old Mauser with a
few carridges in it” that snuffed
cut Smith’s life last summer in
his palatial home here, at the
end of a party.
“I’d Kill Myself”
Again. Smith wrote Libby:
• “If I thought we have to go
through life being separated
like this, I’d kill myself.”
From London, just before he
undertook a trans - continental
flight to Hong Kong, he wrote:
“I really have been ill with
out you. 1 have really been
sick in bed for two days. I
don't know what's the matter,
hut I never felt more like
dying in a long time.”
Smith’s family. In fact. I
think that under the circum
stances. all of us would be quite
happy if it should be your de
cision to drop the cases.
Sends Judge Copy
“Distressed as we all are over
Smith's unfortunate death, none
of us could find any pleasure
in a prosecution that was not
fully sustained by the circum
stances of his death.
“I am taking the liberty of
sending a copy of this letter to
Judge Stack for his information.
“With personal regards and
best wishes. I am

cheap labor or who operate under
a standard of living which is
lower than that of our great
laboring groups.”
He replied to President Hoov
er’s declarations that the Demo
cratic tariff policy would result
in the further loss of American
trade with foreign countries, by
saying:
"We now have a strangula
tion of that very trade under
the tariff system of unsystem
atic and unscientific tariff bills
set up by the log rolling that
created the Grundy tariff.”
DENIES FIGHT ON R. F. C.
Roosevelt said that when the
voters carefully consider the
“complete inaction” of the Repub
lican leadership at Washington
for the last three years during
the economic storm, their answer
to the “spectre of fear” must be:
“No, we are not afraid of a
change.”
He said things might have been
worse had it not been for the

and its leaders.”
After insisting he never had
criticized or objected to the estab-
I lishment of the Reconstruction
; Finance Corporation, the governor
added:
“The point is that it is not
that the Republican Administra
tion established that agency—
it is how it used that agency.
The Reconstruction Finance
Corporation has performed
many excellent services in ex
tending credit to banks and
other institutions, but it is the
fact, which I established last
spring, and which the record of
the subsequent months has dis
closed. that I was right in say
ing that only a small portion of
the actual credits advanced by
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration has trickled down—
seeped through—to the indi
vidual, to the worker, and the
farmer, and the man without a
job—or, for that matter, to the
small business man himself.”
CHARGES MISCMANAGEMENT
Roosevelt asserted that the
fundamental purposes and prin
ciples of the Reconstruction Fi
nance Corporation have not been
carried out by the Republican
administration at Washington.
He summed up his indictment
of the Hoover administration
with one word — “mismanage
ment.” He said:
"If this nation wants to know
what is wrong with its national
government, I will give them
the answer in one word that
word is ’mismanagement.’ ”
The Democratic presidential
nominee expressed conviction the
American people are ready for a
change of administrations—“a
change that will put into prac
tice the lessons which we have
had to leam through our trials
and troubles.”
Driving home the point that
the nation cannot endure "half
booin and half broke." Roosevelt
said:
"The Hoover administration
forgot these facts enouraged
speculators, strangled foreign
markets bv indefensible tariffs,
and accomplished nothing for
agricultural communities, de
pressed already to the lowest
point in modern history.”
He said he had suggested a
program for the rehabilitation of
agriculture, for placing the rail
roads on their feet that he pro
posed to curb the exploitation of
hard earned savings, and that he
had a definite program for fair
control of public utility and pub
lic service. He said:
“The Democratic program is
practical and I pledge to you
that it will be carried out with
speed and dispatch.”
Roosevelt said he holds to the ,
belief that the Government ex- |
ists for Individual men and
women and that its first objective ;
should be to promote their hap
piness. He added:
"To me Government is not a
machine driven by technicians,
hut a human, svmnathetic, and
responsive institution.”
He said that unless everyone
prospers “the nation falters,” and
then he concluded:
“I seek a sound admini.stra-

As he stepped from his private

here by motor he received assur

he has an “excellent chance” of

HOOVER'S GAINS
INPOLLTOOO
HIMNOGOOO
i Lot of Paper, Pencils Needed
to Figure Out How He
Can Be Re-elected
By COLE E. MORGAN
The gains that President
Hoover has been showing of
late in the debatable Eastern
•and Central States, and even
in spotted ■sections west of the
Mississippi, still fail to show
wherin he can acquire the
266 electoral votes necessary if
he is to continue another term
in the White House.
Returns in the nation-wide
postcard presidential poll of The
Washington Times and other
Hearst newspapers give the Re
publican nominee a total of 145
potential electoral votes In States
where he had obtained a ma
jority of the Hoover-Roosevelt
poll ballots.
Still 121 Shy
This 145 includes the 47 of
New York and the 26 of Ohio
and the 9 of Kansas and the
6 of Colorado that are not given
to him in other straw votes. The
Hearst newspapers’ poll, there
fore, Is giving Hoover everything
that the straw tests as a whole
say he is entitled to. The 145
votes now to his credit still leave
him 121 to go for a bare ma
jority of the 531 total.
The 145 include all New Eng
land, New York, New* Jersey.
Ohio. Kansas and Colorado. Add
to that Delaware 3. Pennsyl
vania's 36. Michigan's 19, In
diana’s 4, Illinois’ 29. lowa’s 11,
Montana's 4. Idaho's 4. Wyo
ming’s 3. all States where he has
shown some recent pickup, and
it would give him 123 additional
for a total of 268. TTrat would
put him over. But wait a minute.
Must Have Illinois
Nothing has developed as yet
to warrant even remotely the
conceding of Illinois to Hoover.
Without Illlinois. but with all of
the other States mentioned, he
would be 27 short.
His home State of California
could not even save him in that
situation, for it has only 22. And
despite the optimistic talk of Re
publican leaders about the Cali
fornia situation, the poll returns
and other developments have
failed thus far to indicate wherein
the California revolt against
Hoover has lost its momentum.
It will take a lot of paper
and pencils and head-scratching
to work out the answer of where
the electoral votes are coming
from to put Hoover across.
HIGH COURT ACT
if HE BLOW
• TO WETS
Battle of Two Big Parties for
House Control Seen Put in
State Legislative Hands
The battle of the major par
ties for control of State«govern
ments today assumed national
importance as a result of the
Supreme Court’s decision up
holding the congressional re
districting act of -Mississippi.
The result is that the party
which obtains control of the leg
islatures in at least 10 States
may be able to “gerrymander”
congressional districts so that it
can control the House two years
from now.
Dry Issue Affected
The decision also has a bear
ing on the wet and dry issue, for
legislatures also will have power
to alter congressional districts to
favor either the wets or the drys.
The high court, in effect, ruled
that a private citizen cannot un
der present law invoke the aid of
courts to prevent State legisla
tures from dividing States into
congressional districts as they
please.
As a result of court action or
failure of legislatures to act. the
entire congresisonal delegations
in Missouri. North Dakota, and
Minnesota must be elected at
large. One or more members of
the House must be elected at
large from New York. Florida,
Illinois. Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas
and Connecticut.
Blow at Wets
An example of the far-reaching ;
effect of the decision is seen in
the situations i nNew York, Illi-,
nois, Ohio, and Missouri.
Should either the Republicans
or Democrats control the State
government, they could shuffle
congressional districts to the ad
vantage of either party.
By denying fair representation
in the big cities, the legislatures
could keep many wet Congress
men out and put dry members
in office.
Under the general reapportion- j
ment of members of the House
among States, based on the 1930 |
census, it was expected that the ’
wets would gain at least 20 mem-!
bers. The legislatures, however,
now will have power to nullify
this gain.
