Tried for Death
of Woman
Hatfield Testifies That He Heard
Argument But Was Afraid
to Go to Kitchen.
Papilllon, Neb. George Quick of
Ecllevue was bound over to tbe dis
trict court here on a charge of sec
end degree murder in connection
with the death of Mrs. .Lottie Hat
field of IMlevue last Aug:. 2. He was

Co. Atly. R. J. Nfekorson present
ed only two witnesses at the hear
ing beio-.e County Judge Harvey A.
Collins. William P. Nolan of Papil
lion, defense attorney, presented no(

witnesses Frank Hatfield, the vic
tim's husband, and Dr. V. II. Detz.
Hatfield testified that he and his
wife returned home from a road
house at Avery shortly after mid
night Aug. 2 and retired. Later, he
said, Quick, who lived at the Hat
field home in Bellevue, returned home
and ordered Mrs. Hatfield to get up
and get him something to eat.
His wife got up and went to the
kitchtn but he remained in bed. He
heard Quick and his wife arguing,
but because he was afraid of Quick
did not go to the kitchen. The last
thing he heard his wife say was "Oh,
my."
Mrs. Hatfield's body was found
next day and Dr. Betz said death was
caus3d by a skull fracture. Xicker
son introduced no testimony to show
whether a weapon was used or if one
was used, what it was.
Hatfield said he diu not go near
the kitchen until after his wife's
body was found. He is a truck
gardener at Papillion.
Nickerson said the case would be
one of the first tried at the Sept
ember term of court.
IODINE LOSES ITS STING
Dallas, Tex. Pharmacy finally has
taken the "burn" out of iodine. A
new iodine compound, known in the
pharmaceutical world as iodochol
eate, a non-poisonous, non-injurious
germicide, will be introduced to the
American Pharmaceutical associa
tion convention Friday by Dr. Paul
Goedrich of the New Jersey college
of pharmacy research laboratories.
The germicidal power of the com
pound, he said, i3 up to 160 percent
higher than ordinary iodine prepar
ations and wounds treated with a
solution made from the compound
heal faster. More tlian 2,000 clinical
cases confirm its properties, Dr. Goed
rich said, adding: "Most important
pharmacologic action of the iodo
choleatcs is that it is not harmful to
the broken or unbroken skin
Even I
when kept under heavy bandages." j

SOUGHT SELASSIE'S RESCUE
Versailles, France. An attempted
rescue by airplane of Emperor Haile
Selassie during the Italo-Ethiopian
war was recounted in a French po
lice court. Rene Drouillet, French
pilot, was on trial on charges of vio
lating air police regulations and mis
appropriating confiscated objects. It
was on April 25 that Drouillet, who
snrvpii ns aviation adviser to the
king of kings during the war, took
off in his American airplane from
Villacoublay airport for Ethiopia, but
landed in Italy. He would have re
ceived the legion of honor instead
of a trial, his lawyer told the court.
"if he had succeeded in bringing the
emperor to France."
Back in April Drouillet prepared
his ship at the airfield for the
flight, but the air ministry kept it
grounded, saying it lacked French
registration. The daring pilot, how
ever, with a court order in his pocket
permitting a test flight, took off. He
landed in Rome, and the plane was
sequestered.
A warrant for his arrest was is
sued by the Versailles prosecutor's
office, and he was arrested when he
returned to France after the Italian
occupation of Ethiopia was com
pleted. LEGION URGES GUN SALE LAW
The Nebraska American Legion
Wednesday threw its weight behind
the crusade to keep firearms out of
the hands of the lawless.
The Legion, at the closing session
of its department convention here,
adopted a resolution urging its na
tional headquarters, Governor R. L.
Cochran and Nebraska state legis
lators to proceed toward adequate
legislation for control of the pur
chase and sale of firearms.
A request that the federal govern
ment destroy all obsolete small fire
arms rather than sell them to brok
ers also was contained in the reso
lution. Governor Cochran already has
pledged himself to support a reason
able state law to end the promiscuous
sale of firearms in Nebraska. Eleven
of the 14 Omaha candidate for the
one-house legislature also have
pledged themselves to back a bill that
will better regulate the sale of fire
arms. TO VISIT HERE

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Cummins drove

AAA Drops Plan
to Send a Model
Law to States
Attempt to Suggest Farm Legislation
Meets With Criticism Will Ad
vise States on Request.
Washington. An AAA spokesman
said plans to submit standard soil
conservation legislation to the states
lad been abandoned in an effort to
nullify the charges that the admin
istration was trying to dictate state
laws.
Discussing the matter privately,
the spokesman asserted federal agen
cies will advise with the states on
request but otherwise maintain a
"hands off" policy when they under
take to write laws enabling them to
co-operate with the federal soil con
servation act after Jan. 1, 1938.
That is the date set by law for
the termination of direct grants from
the government to farmers for soil
conservation practices. Thereafter,
grants will be made" to states instead,
on a state aid basis, when they adopt
programs which the secretary of
agriculture finds comply with the
federal act.
At the AAA it was said the deci
sion to leave the question of en
abling legislation entirely to state
initiative was reached when "inad
vertent" distribution of a "model
law" prospectus drafted by AAA at
torney aroused adverse comment.
Dr. A. W. Gilbert, AAA counsel,
in charge of state relations, and
Prew Savoy, author of various
"model laws" drafts, were absent
from the city and colleagues declined
comment.
It was said in official quarters,
however, that the step was taken
"for the express purpose of nulli
fying allegations that the adminis
tration was trying to dictate to the
states."
It was recalled that Howard R.
Tolley, AAA administrator, said in
an address before the American In
stitute of Co-operation on June 19
that "many letters have been re
ceived in Washington asking for
copies of a 'model state law.' "
"Presumably, it plans for con
trolling volume of productions are
submitted by enough states to make
a significant step toward attaining
parity incomes for farmers, the sec
retary can approve them and ad
vance funds to the states, and the
states can make control of volume
one of the conditions of grants to
farmers," he added. "The various
state plans must be co-ordinated so
as to fit into a national pattern
looking to the welfare of agricul
ture and the nation as a whole." I
