(Red) twWis, TTehderson hoy and former Duke university track star who early this year became coach of the Tur kish national athletic team with head quarters at Istanbul, Turkey, is get ting along well in his new, and un usual, position. i Lewis arrived in Istanbul the last of February and since that.time has been working intensively to get the Turkish team in shape for the annual ’ Balkan track meet, which will be held on May 31. In his letter to Coach Carl Voyles, under whom he performed at Duke, the former Blue Devil miler has dis cussed many of his problems and in cluded many interesting developments in his work. His chief trouble at. the start was his inability to speak the Turkish lan guage. Lewis has a speaking know ledge of French and when working with the Turkish track candidates he used a French interpreter. In his last letter, he wrote that he was rapidly ’ fcecomeing able to speak Turkish, and therefore, was aible to get his sugges tions across better. The track which his candidates use for practice is also giving Lewis some trouble. On his arrival he found that a. new track would have to be built and the weather has interfered with its getting into the best, shape for the runners. He has written for the formula of the mixture of clay and cinders in the Duke stadium track recognized as one of the nation’s best —— 'So that he could use the same in his cinder path. From the performances of his boys, In a squad meet held recently, Lewis is getting across some of his teach ings in, good style. Especially in the mile run, in which Lewis set and holds the Southern conference record, have the Turks become adept, one of the hoys having run the 1,000 meters, cor responding to the mile, in 2 minutes 40 seconds —and that on a slow track' Other good marks turned in were in the javelin, 196 feet; in the high jump, 6 feet 1 inch, in the discus 125 feet 3 inches, the shot put 43 feet 6 The high jump mark was threefourthfc “ tis an inch better than that whlctrwon the conference meet' at Duke last week.

Fear Publication Ransom Notes Hamper Kidnapers *.Continued irom Page One.) ed and copyrighted by the Seatlte Post Intelligencer, the newspaper in which Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Weyer haeuser, parents of the child, were instructed to insert their reply to the note. Officials said the original of the note, together with the envelope, on the back of which was scrawled the boyish signature of the missing boy, had been sent to Washington, D. C., where it was being studied by ex perts in the bureau of investigation ; of the Department of Justice. It was believed, however, that j copies of the note had /been made for the various law enforcement agencies cooperating in the case. No word came as to whether the 1 kidnapers had again communicated with the parents, after the advertise. 1 ment in Sunday’s Post-Intelligencer appealing to them to find a new method to reach the Weyerhaeusers. Detectives continued to watch the post office here in the belief the kiu | napers might again use a special de ' lively letter to get their reply to the boy’s parents. Salient points in the ransom note follow: / Demand for $200,000 in cash in hills of various denomination* and un marked. Five days in which to raise the money. Today was the third day. A warning that the Weyerhaeusers were ng.t to notify the police or any private detective agency and to keep it out of the newspapers. Another warning to "just follow the rules, we will get along fine; don’t slip on your part, will he just too bad for some one else.” A boast was made that the police could not catch up with them and that they were educated and “fairly intel ligent.’' System Os Codes Os NRA Wiped Out By Supreme Court (Conti i:ued from Page One.) the conspiracy count and given prison sentences, and their firms were fc und guilty of the remaining counts relat ing to trade practices. The second circuit court of appeals approved the convictions on 17 counts, including conspiracy and set aside the conviction on two counts which charged violation of minimum wages And maximum hours provisions of the •ode. It held those two provisions un onstitutional. With Donald R. Richherg, NRA “hies who argued the case, sitting ten feet before him in a packed court room, Chief Justice Hughes held 96 percent of the live poultry marketed in New York came from other states. ‘‘The defendants are slaughter house operators,” he added. “They do not sell poultry in interstate com merce,” he said. The government, Mr. Hughes said, stressed the “grave national crisis” confronting the country. “Extraordinary conditions may call for extraordinary remedies,” he said, “but the argument stops short of the attempt to defend action outside of constituional autrority.” “Extraordinary conditions do not create constitutional power.” The court declared Congress had not pro vided sufficient restrictions and had not laid down sufficient rules to guide the President in approving codes. It ruled Section 3 of the act pro viding codes of fair competition was an illegal delegation of power by Con gress. “Congress,” Mr. Hughes emphasiz-' ed, cannot, delegate to the President the right to do whatever he thinks desirable.” ) He held: ‘‘The President, in approving a code may add to or substract from the pro visions. Section 3 is without precedent It sets up no standard aside from general aims.” \ The code making authority confer, red, he ruled, is an unconstitutional delegation of legislative authority. SNUB FOR CHAVEZ Walking Out On New Mexi can Senator Was De fiance of Roosevelt By CHARLES 4*. STEWART Central Press Staff Writer Washington, May 27.—The Progres sives who ostentatiously got up and left the senate chamber recently ■when Dennis Chavez appeared, to ibe sworn in, as the late Senator Bronson Cut ting’s successor, did more than ad minister a mortaf snub to the new sol on from the southwest. They strong ly implied a gesture of defiance in President. Roosevelt’s direction. In fact, Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska, did more than imply. He unmistakably explained his gesture as expressing resentment at the White House tenant’s treatment of Senator Cutting, referring to it as "the worst, example of ingratitude in American political history.” To recall the circumstances: Senator Cutting (New iM/exico Pro gressive Republican) ardently sup. ported the then Governor Roosevelt for the presidency in 1932, on the gorund that, though a Democrat, he, too, was a Progressive. Subsequently he voted on Capitol Hill for all es sential R'ooseveltian policies except the bonus issue. Either because of this exception or for some other rea son, the Democratic national machine made a conspicuously bitte rfight for Chavez, as a. Democrat, against Cut ting, when Cutting was a candidate for re-election in 1934. Whether or not it was presidentially ordered, Pro gressives take the position that the President must have acquiesced in it. Cutting winning iby a narrow margin. Chavez lodged a contest (described by sStenator Hiram # W. Johnson of California’ as “utterly unjustified”), which was still pending when Cutting was killed in an airplane crash, where upon Gov. Clyde Tingley of New Mexico (a Rooseveltian Democrat) ap pointed Chavez to succeed him. serv ing until next year’s election. I .EGITIMATE A P POTNTMENT It was a perfectly legitimate ap jointment—technically. Nevertheless, the preceding! se. quence of events had been such that the Progressives are furious. This doesn’t, mean Republican Pro gressives alone; it means all Progres sives. It isn’t their only present grievance, either. ; To a man, they are pro-bonus-ites —and the President vetoed the bonus. They are outraged by the revelation of near-slavery conditions in shtfre cropperdom—abuses which evidently have ibeeri enormously aggravated by the AAA regime. And President Roosevelt’s schedule of wages for work relief—down to sl9 a months—scandalize them. In short, they think he is swinging to the light almost incredibly. Thus the Progressive boycott of Senator Chavez’s swearing-in was more of a warning to the executive mansion than of a slap at Senator Chavez—who, after all, isn’t of much immediate consequence, except as his lone vote may count, out of 96, on approximately half a dozen of pending measures. ’Kerchief Might Be From Boy (Continued from Page One.) the boy would have followed if he had deciiled to take a short cut to his home. Efforts were being made to find some member of the Weyerhaeuser family to say whether the handker chief belonged to the boy. Scars on the smooth bark and a broken branch of a tree aibout six feet away from the handkerchief sug gested the possibility that the kid naper had used the tree to raise him self above a tall hedge to watch for the lad.
