BEFORE COURT
FORBEARING
Attempt of Judge To
Bar Testimony Of
Trial From Press Is
Argued
ANGLETON, Aug. l.-^-Hear
ing for six Houston newspaper
•ditan and reporters on charges of
contempt of district court here got
underway Thursday after a morn
ing spent In conference between
Judge M 8. Munson and attorneys.
The six who have been cited for
contempt are Managing Editor E.
M. Pooley and Harry McCormick
of the Houston Press; managing
Editor Max Jacobs and Prank White
of the Houston Past and Editor
George Co it ingham and Ed Rider
ol the Houston Chronicle.
The charges grew out of the fail
ure of the three newspapers to heed
the oral order of Judge Munson not
to print testimony In the murder
trial of Clyde Thompson, Retrieve
farm convict. The Judge declared
that printing of the testimony
would hinder efforts to obtain a
jury in subsequent trials of two
fellow convicts charged in the slay
ing.
Severance Granted
Shortly after A. R Rucks, attor
ney associated with District At
torney Bob Bassett for the state
announced ready John H. Crooker.
attorney for the Houston Press, ask
ed for a severance of his case from
that of the Chronicle and Post.
Frank Liddell, acting as chief
counsel for the Chronicle and Post,
agreed to the severance and It was
granted by Judge Munson.
The cases will be tried together
to save time but there will be sep
arate records of the cases.
Crooker and Liddell then asked
th* court for permission to intro
duce some demurrers and excep
tions to the case.
Judge Munson already had read
the demurrers and overruled them
promptly.
Liddell then arose and presented
til* answer
Briefly the answer contended:
That the decree of contempt was
insufficient to constitute any basis
for contempt proceedings.
That It appears on the face of
the contempt order ttnit the court
is without Jurisdiction of subject
matter upon which It purports to act.
Rights Deprived
That it appears that the contempt
order attempts on the part of the
court to deprive these respondents
of the right to publish a full, true
and impartial account of evidence
adduced at a public trial In a dis
trict court of the State of Texas.
After Liddell had finished read
ing his answer to the court's order.
Crooker arose and made an objec
tion. in which Liddell concurred,
that the court's written offler was
not made until July 26. and that it
was not filed and made a part of
the record of tha case until July 29.
The oral order of Judge Munson
forbidding the papers to print the
testimony was made on July 23. and
the papers carried accounts of the
trial on July 23. 24 and 25.

LOANS SET-UP
DEPOSITSGROW
Drive to Obtain Additional
Funds For City Building
Nets Results
A total of twenty-four new thrift
accounts toward a goal of one hun
dred, and nine fully paid shares,
were reported Thursday morning by
teams working in a drive to increase
the deposits in the Brownsville Fed
eral Loan <fe Savings association.
Total cash turned in amounted to
$1135.
“On the basis of the first morn
ing's collections, Brownsville as
sociation will be able, with the
United States treasury funds made
available cn a basis of three dollars
to every one dollar raised locally, to
make loans sufficient to build two
houses costing $2500 each.” Clarence
Coigin. secretary of the association
announced.
The association has financed or
committed itself to finance, a total
of 12 new homes, and two r model
ing jobs. The total loaned since the
association was chartered, in March,
is nearly $27,000.
The largest individual collection
Thursday was the deposit of C. L.
Jessup, obtained by the C. C. Hen
derson team, amounting to $500. cash.
This is Mr. Jessup’s second sub
scription. his first having been $500
at the time the association was
formed.
The teams were given points as
follows:
No. 1. Bascom Vox. captain. 500
points.
Nc. 3. Manuel Cisneros, captain.
375 points.
Nc. 4, J. M Stein, captain. 375
points.
No. 5. Joe Bollaek. captain. 100
points.
No. 6. G C Richardson, captain
90 points.
"If $10,000 is the total raised in
this drive,” Coigin said, "it means
that we aill be able immediately tc
apply to the United States treas
ury for $30000 as the federal sub
scription This will make possible
an additional $40,000 in loans, which
will go to create new business and
wages in Brownsville. The association
estimates that about cne-half of th*'
total expenditures in construction is
for labor.”
The teams unanimously reported
that cordial receptions are being
given by prcspects. but that inas
much as the plan is something new
much care is being observed to ex
plain the details. Many prospects
asked for literature and further time
in which to study the savings and
share plans
The teams will meet again at the
Chamber of Commerce at 11:30 Fri
day morning.

BRITAIN AND
(Continued from Page One)
had prepared the formula, by Ba
ron Pompeo Aloisi of Italy, another
who had taken part in its pre
paration.
Despite the fact that Mussolini
had balked at accepting the sug
gestions for a peaceful solution of
the conflict with Ethiopia in their
entirety, French (Relegates said they
were optimistic, believing the out
standing points would be cleared up
rapidly.
Laval said the League of Nations
council definitely would meet if the
complete accord of all parties, in
cluding the Ethiopians, is reached,
the session will be public to adopt
a formal resolution. If no agree
ment is achieved, a private session
is to be held to put the council in
touch with the situation.
Objects to Phraseology
French and Italian experts con
ferred immediately after the con
iemce between Laval and Aloisi in
an effort to agree on the phrase
ology of the text of the formula
Some of Mussolini's objections had
to do with the wording and punc
tuation of the text.
More serious, however, was the
report ihat Mussolini still was op
posed to fixing a definite date for
the council to discuss the Italo
Ethiopian dispute if political nego
tia|.ons among Great Britain.
France, and Italy, as provided in
the formula, failed to solve the prob
lem.
Laval indicated a complete accord
had been reached concerning the
method for resuming the arbitra
tion of the frontier clashes which
brought the present crisis to its
head.
It was reliably learned that the
Ethiopian delegation, however is
dissatisfied with the fo.-mula in its
present shape.
The possibility was seen that the
Ethiopians would raise objections
either through the delegates or in
a private session of the council.
Laval announced he was con
ferring with Anthony Eden, British
minister for League of Nations af
fairs and the third framer of the
formula, and subsequently hoped to
confer with Tecle Hawariate, the
Ethiopian represetnative.
Dace Gets Own Way
Although a British spokesman as
serted England made no "substan
tial' concession from its previous
firm stand for decisive action in
the impasse, Mussolini apparently
succeeded in having his way on
most of the controversial points.
League observers said the new
resolution yielded to Italy its two
chief demands:
1. "Hands off" by the league from
examining the entire controversy.
2. Revival of the conciliation com
mission-limited strictly to deter
mining the responsibility for fron
tier incidents without discusson of
territorial sovereignty.
A renewal of the conciliation ef
forts was considered generally fore
doomed to failure.
A ray of hope that war between
Italy and Ethiopia may be averted
wjis seen, however, in a clause of the
accord calling for England, France
and Italy to pursue diplomatic ne
gotiations on the basis of their 1906
treaty guaranteeing independence
to the East African empire.
