Livingston, have agreed on Mai. Robert Starr Allyn of 24 Irving pl. for Congress and former Assemblyman "Jimmy" Bly for State Senator, The 10th and 12th A. D.s, which appear to have a working agreement between them, favor former Senator William Thorn Simpson for Congress and Leo Doherty for State Senator. Former United States Senator William M.

Calder and Collector of who together manage affairs in the Internal Revenue John T. Rafferty, 12th A. are determined to nate Simpson for Congress. They don't want Vass' candidate, Major Allyn, and are not overjoyed at the prospect of seeing his name entered Commissioner of Jurors and former State Senator Charles F. Murphy, leader of the 10th A.

D. and time, is reported more favorable to famous for outings in the summer Simpson than to Allyn. Murphy and Calder have long thought the same thoughts, and it would not be surprising if the former should agree to Simpson for Congress if the latter would, agree to either Fred Ahern or Leo Doherty for State Senator. And that's just what the 11th A. D.

objects to. W. J. S. Ryall of 214 Lefferts who, when he is not playing politics in the 11th A.

On the Murphy outing to Roton Point last week he made life miserable for some of the other leaders by openly seeking support for his Congressional candidate.

"We in the 11th District object to the flagrant manner in which Calder and Murphy treat us, as though we Were no one." said Ryall today. "Senator Calder is supposed to be out of politics, but as far as I can see he's very much in it. Our County Committee, of which Thomas E.

Brownlee is chairman, has indorsed Maj. Allyn for Congress and Jimmy Bly for State Senator. The Major is going into the primary, no matter what happens. Mr. Vass is for him.

"The 10th and 12th Districts think they can have everything to themselves and leave the 11th out in the cold. But we won't stand for Alfred E. Vass declared today for Major Allyn. "I'm for Allyn. The district has indorsed him," he said.

Rafferty considers the situation worthy of his immediate attention. going to have a preliminary meeting of his election district captains, or at least those whose wives will let them out, tonight. Later in the week he will call a meeting of "I'm for Simpson." said Rafferty, "because of his long legislative experience. Major Allyn is probably a good man.

Anyone who wants to can go into the primary." Asked if Senator Calder were playing much of a part in the district affairs. Rafferty replied, "Oh, he's still alive. He takes an interest." Senator Calder, while making no secret of the fact that he favors the nomination of Simpson for Congress, lenied Mr. Ryall's charge that the 10th and 12th Districts were demanding the lion's share of everyRyall said." declared Calder. "The thing.

"History disproves what Mr. 12th hasn't had a Congressman in a number of years. I'm for Simps now because I believe he's the best qualified man. However, it's really up to Rafferty.

SOMERS BACKS SMITH FOR MAYOR Arthur S. Somers, president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, in a statement which he gave to the newspapers today, came out for Gov. Al Smith for Mayor of New York City, "I cannot conceive of any office that offers greater opportunity for fine service than the Mayoralty of the City of New York." said Mr. Somers. "She stands as a peer among cities of the world.

Her people, notwithstanding occasional rifts, represent the highest type to found anywhere. "To lead such a people is no mean honor, and even though Governor Smith has occupied the highest office in the State, the Mayoralty of New York City is just as important, if not more 90. With Smith at the head of our city government, his speech would be direct, his aim would be definite. There would be no shadow boxing.

Philadelphia, July reports that his resignation as Director of Public Safety would be requested by Mayor Kendrick unless he discontinued the redistricting of police stations, Brig. Gen.

Smedley D. Butler issued orders today for the biggest police shakeup since he sumed the office, last January. More than 300 patrolmen and 20 street sergeants, attached to the central districts, whom the director declared had "double-crossed" their lieutenants, will be transferred to outlying sections, from which other men will be brought to take their places. The Director said he had learned of a plot by certain politicians to discredit his system of cutting down the number of police stations under his redistricting plan, which, he declared, was the most method of eliminating political control of the police. "I have learned," he said, "they are going to stage a holdup right in front of one of these deserted stations, to show the public that a big mistake was made in wiping them out.

Defendants Afirm Plea.

The youthful defendants were called to the bar of the court to atArm this plea. "Let the record show that both defendanta affirmed the plea of guilty to kidnaping and murder, after being warned by the Court of the consequences," said Judge Caverly. Attorney Bachrach then suggested that the proceedings would be shortened if State's Attorney Crowe, instead of summoning witnesses, would make a statement of the facts relied upon by the prosecution. can assure him there he no dispute of those facts by the defense," said Mr. Bachrach, but the State declined to agree.

Asks Joint Sanity Conference. Mr. Bachrach next suggested that a joint conference be held between the alienists of the State and defense: "Are these boys pleading. guilty as sane or insane persons?" interrupted the State's attorney. "If the latter, the State will ask for a jury as it can on demonstrate that they are sane and knew exactly what they were doing." Mr.

Bachrach said that the object of the conference would be to iron out the differences which "invariably accompany presentation of expert testimony as to insanity in crimInal He argued that the result wonld be a coherent statement for the Court's consideration "Instead of wide publication of atrocious details in newspaper and their consequent effect upon poorly balanced minds generally." Judge Caverly said that the Court had no power to force such a procedure upon the State and left the proposal to the State's attorney, who could again stated that the prosecution prove that the defendants were thoroughly sane. A discussion of the time of hearing followed. Both sides were ready to go ahead at once, but Judge Caverly said Wednesday was the earliest date at which he could hear testimony. "You have unloaded a big responsibility upon me," said Judge Caverly The defense move was a surprisc to the State anticipated a motion for continuance. In presenting defense motion, Attorney Darrow informed the Court that the only move of the detense would be to present evidence tending to demonstrate "the degree of responsibility, and also evidence an irresponsibility and insanity" in the two defendants.

At another point Mr. Darrow said: "The defense fully realizes that the defendants should be permanehtly isolated from society." Jacob Loeb, wealthy uncle of Richard, and former president of the Chicago Board of Education, and Allen Loeb, younger brother of Richard, were in the court room. Nathan Leopold father of the second principal, and Foreman Leopold, a brother, were at the second table. Attorney Darrow, in presenting his motion to change the plea, addressed the court as follows: "Your honor, Mr. Bachrach and myself and all of those concerned in this case for the defense are fully aware of the responsibilities involved.

"The case has attracted an unusual theory has amount been of advanced attention that and the the defense wishes to restore the defendants to society, Not Seeking Freedom. wish to say frankly to the court that we never have entertained such an idea. "We are of the opinion that these two young men should be permanently isolated and it never was our intention to attempt to restore them to freedom. "We must consider in this case the standpoint of the public, who are rightfully interested in the' proceedings. It would necessarily take a great deal of time to choose a jury, especially at this hot season of the year.

Fair Trial DiMcult. "We have considered a change of venue from this county. It seems plain that it would be difficult to have a fair trial here because of the intense feeling aroused by the crime, but in my practice of 37 years as a lawyer in Chicago I have asked but one change of venue and that was at the advice of my client and against my own convictions. Moreover, the facts in this case are as well known outside of Cook County and outside of Illinois as they are in Chicago. "It is our intention merely to see that these two defendants are safely incarcerated for the rest of their lives, "Therefore, I move to withdraw the plea of not guilty and to enter pleas of guilty for both defendants." Franks Slayers Confessed After Alibi Was Shattered Chicago, July 21-Nathan Leopold Jr.

and Richard Loeb, confessed slayers of 14 year old Robert Franks, are both minors, sons of millionaires and graduate students distinguished by their attainments. At the time of the slaying Leopold was 20 and Loeb 19. Probably none of Leopold's acquaintances save Loeb connected the slaying on May 21, which, according to the boys' confession, was premeditated, with the precocious ornithologist who had engaged the confidence of the little Kirtland warbler, a bird 'so shy as to have been supposed extinct, 80 successfully that it perched on his shoulder and ate from his hand while 1,000 feet of moving picture Aim was unrolled. According to Loeb, though this detail Leopold disputed, it was the same hand that struck Robert Franks from behind with a chisel wound in tape, after strangling him. Families Long in Chicago.

The grandfathers of both Nathan and Richard were among those who, like Carl Schurz, came to this country from Germany because of the failure of the revolution of 1848. The Leopold family has been in Chicago since 1867. Albert Loeb, father of Richard, was born in Chicago in 1868. Nathan Leopold whose fortune grew as the city grew, was formerly engaged in lake transportation and is now a paper manufacturer. Albert Loeb, son of a small shoe merchant, taught evening school, practiced law and eventually became vice president of the Roebuck mail order company, of which Julius Rosenwald is president.

His brother, Jacob Loeb, was president of the Chicago Board of Education from 1916 to 1919. His wife, Richard's mother, who WAB Anna Bohnen has been active in welfare work. Both families worship at Sinai Temple of which the late Emil G. Hirsch was rabbi. Like them, the family of the boys' victim, Robert Franks, is of Hebrew, descent, though not holding the Jewish fulth.

Denianged $10,000 Ransom. Robert failed to reach home after school May 21. The next day a letter and messages by telephone called upon his father, Jacob Franks, president of the Rockford Watch Company, a neighbor of Loeb and Leopold, for $10,000 ransom. The messages stated that the boy had been kidnaped but was safe. The father virtually decided to comply with instructions, but permitted his lawyer and a relative to go to the morgue to see the body of a boy found in a culvert.

The body was identnea. as Robert's. An autopsy showed that he had been slain before the letter demanding ransom was written. Several witnesses were examined, but not until a pair of glasses found in the culvert were traced through the prescription to young Nathan was either he or Richard suspected. The two boys were taken into custody and were held in hotels and in the State's Attorney's office for three days.

Their adroitness and ANSUrance baffled their examiners until Loeb learned that their attempted alibi was refuted by the testimony of a chauffeur that the car the boys said they had used was undergoing repairs at the time. Then Loeb began to confess and Leopold, learning of his action, did likewise. Sought Money and Adventure. According to the confession. they planned both slaying and kidnaping, the extreme penalty for murder, death, being the same in Illinois as the extreme penalty for kidnaping for ransom, even though the victim survives.

They are reported by the State to have said they did it for money and for adventure. Although counsel for one of the other suspects complained that harsh measures were used by detectives in the case of his client, who nevertheless did not confess, State's Attorney Robert E. Crowe asserted that the utmost consideration was extended to Nathan and Richard and that he permitted them to talk with their relatives, though not with counsel. While the pair of eyeglasses found near the body was the principal clue upon which the boys were located, yet after their confession there were many angles that kept the case prominently before the public. Young Franks attended Harvard School, an exclusive educational institution near his home, and for a When We Are Trustee The man or woman who makes a Will or Deed of Gift and names the Title Guarantee Trust Company as trustee may be sure of one thing.

When the application for the trial was asked for several weeks ago, Justice Cropsey suggested that the neighbors "need not bring their lunch," as the case would not take long to try. Those who heeded that admonition, including many fight fans, were out of luck today, and they ha dto scurry for downtown lunch rooms at 12:30. Justice Cropsey, after hearing several other motions today, was told that the issues to be tried are whether the bowl is a nuisance by reason of its existence or by method of operation, and also whether the club had obtained its linceses hontstly.
