‘iN BEFWEENER’
WASHINGTON. Aug. 28,—Repub-
.lican strategy for the campaign has
. been fairly well revealed and strong-
5 ly indicates the intention of the Re-
ipublican leaders to have President
Coolidge stand squarely on his rec-
0rd with little or no explanation and
to have Charles G. Dawes do the ag-
gressive work.
_.\’ot only this, but it appears evi-
dent that the Republicans are going
to attempt to force the issue of con-
svrvatism versus radicalism. empha-
sizing the Donservatlsm of the Presi
dent and the radicalism of Senator
La Follctte and ignoring John W'.
Davis. as far as possible. on the the-
ory. as Mr. Davis put it, that he is
§an "in hetweencr" and therefore not
a: all an issue. '
This plan for the campaign 'has
z been well thought out by the Repub-
illcan on the theory that by ignoring
John W. Davis they can effectually
‘ ; wipe him off the map as a contend-
n-
'l
and convince the bulk of the vot—
g ers that they have the choice of C00-
;lidge or La Follette. Believing. as
chcy do. that. the great mass of the
ivoters is conservative, the Republi-
icans—fecl that by this plan they will
be able to win an easy victory.
do not intend by any means to be sil-
run«
ning mate for Davis. They have been
insisting all along and will continue
in do so. that Davis has no chance
Whatever of election. but that if the
election is thrown into Congress. the
country faces the prospect that Char
les \V. Bryan will be President hom-
inally. while “'illlam J. Brynn.
thrice repudiated by the voters will
be the President in fact.
' Harvey is Hostile to Bryan.
This phrase or the Republican
plan has been demonstrated in re—
‘r cent articles by George Harvey. con-
fident of the President and one of
the real managers of the Republican
campaign, which bitterly attacked
"Brother Chas." as Harvr‘y calls
him, and reflected on the, wisdom of
l.\lr. Davis in chooeing Bryan for a
‘running mate. Col. Harvey regards
John W. Davis as already beaten.
but not so “Brother Chas.” and his
assaults on the Nebraska Governor
in articles of the “Washington newspa

__ HEREDITY EASE
Slayer’s Counsel Says
T h a t and T h e i 1'
Training A r e Re-
sponsible for It
CHICAGO. August 26.—Character
analysis based on heredity and en~
vironment was the theme of Clar-
ence S. Darrow yesterday as he
pleaded anew before Justice John R.
Caverly for the lives of Richard Loeb
and Nathan Leopold, Jr.. kidnappers
and murderersof Robert Franks.
"The weird mad act." of the
youths was mentioned only incident-
ally as this veteran of the American
bar went. back of the crime itself to
trace from childhood the influences
which had surrounded 11h clients.
The eflects of these. he acknowl-
edged. could not be told with cer-
tainty, but limits of human. knowl-
edge were blamed for that. '
“'ealth opening the doors to no
ways which led to denial of desire
was “the terrible misfotune in this
case," Mr. Darrow said. and then he
took up the history of each of the
boys, starting with Loeb. He spoke
of his as Dickie. and said that the
fantasy of being able to produce a
"perfect crime" grew naturally from
the youth’s habitual reading of de~
tectivo stories. superimposed upon a
brain “forced like a. hot house plan
to almorb book after book."
"His parents might have done bet-
ter if they hadn't had any money."
said Mr. Darrow.
All Have Done “Tong in Youth
"Nature is strong and pitiless," he
philosoprized. “She works in her
own mysterious way. and we haven't
much to do with it ourselves.
"Let us be honest with each other.
“'e all know youth is without:
thought and without a. care." and he
drew audible. comment from his au-
dience as he added:
“Congressmen. Judges, lawyers—-
yes. even State's aitorneys—-have in
youth done something that was
wrong. That they were not caught
is their own good fortune." '
Ho noted St. Paul's epistle:
“When I was a child. I saw as a
ichild. I spoke as a. child. I thought
as awhild. but when I became a
man. I put away childish things."
"That was written twenty centur-
lcs ago." he said. "but let us not for-
get it here."
Then hr: said Loch had naturally
acquired. his bollcf that he could
beat the police. He had been inter-
ested in the Charlie Ross case. and
so in planning his “perfect crime,"
he made kidnapping and murder the
cfnrcr of the act.
"The Franks kidnapping and mur-
dcr was in short." said Mr. Darrow.
"a perfectly usless. aimless. childish
gthlng. The facts are plain as to
that.
"Why. thcy could have ,planned
this weird ma-l act in an hour in-
stead. of spending mon.hs on it."
Money Their Misfortune
Mr. Darrow turned to a discussion
of the life of a normal child. point-
ing out its lack of responsibility and
frer-dom from care.
“The life of a child is a. life of
delusions and dreams." he said.
"Dreams are a part of the woof and
warp of childhood. You know that.
Judge. and so do 1”; for I dreamed
of rcprating the experience of Julius
’ CHCSUI‘ when he led victorious troops
‘svruss the Rubicon. I have been
ltlwre since ,and I found I could stop
across the stream.
"Perhaps I was lucky. too, that I
,lzud no money. “is have grown to.
think it a misfortune not to have it.
‘But the terrible mlsfortunq in this
i
i terrible case is that they had money.
\9
“That destroyed their lives and
brought us here. 'Wealth unlimited
is a terrible misfortune in every
step of life. yet we have come almost
to the point where a belief that hu-
)man instincts, logic. sympathy and
love can only be obtained for cash.
This has corrupted the hearts of
nearly all our people."
Find Love Letters
Written to Lugosy
NEW" YORK. Aug. 26.—Love let«
tors written by at least. three women
to John Lugosy, carpenter, who is
being sought. have been found by
the police investigating the murder
of Aaron Gl'ai‘f, radio cabinet manna
facturer. whose dismembered body
was found last week in a sealed
varnishing vat in the cellar of a
Greenwich village house.
The discovery of the.letters. ac-
cording to the police. threw new
light on the character of Lugosy. re-
vealing him as a man with numer-
ous women friends.
Lugosy, who disappeared on Aug.
9, eight days after Grafl was sup-
posed to have been murdered. was a
regular subscriber of a matrimonial
agency. although he had a wife. ac-
cording to the police. They believe
he met the writers of the letters
through this agency. One batch of
letters was found beneath a plank
in the cellar where Grsd‘s body was
found. In the cellar also was found
clothing which the police believed
Lugosy had worn in his engagements
with women. hiding the clothing from
his wife. ‘ .

HI“ you even- stopped to think
what becomes of the soiled piece 01
paper money when it reaches the
bank 2 ‘Is it placed in circulation
again without first being subjected
to some cleaning process 1’ For pa.
per money. perhaps as you know. is
said to be a vertible haven for germs.
Yet there are many who would shun
lea susceptible germ carriers.
However, the banks of Norwalk
are doing all within their power to
combat the evil of spreading disgsse
through the use of soiled paper
money. Each week 350,090 of the
money deposited in the banks is
laundered or destroyed. This amount.
in bills is sent each week to the Fed-
eral Reserve Bank in New York city
to be either washed or macerated.
Local banks make it I. practice not
to hand out soiled bills. 0: course
in the making up of payrolls and the
paying out of large sums. it is im-
possible to supply all clean bills and
so now and then a soiled one slips in.
There is something fascinating
about crisp new money. Were it
possible one would ask that only new
bills be placed in circulation. But.
since such a thing is out of question.
the average person is content to
accept currency which although not
new is at least clean. '
Even the grimest of bills can be
made spotless again through the spe—
cial Washing process which was re-
cently perfected. Banks just stuck
up in neat little piles the thousands
of defaced bills, ship them to the
Federal Reserve Bank and receive
in exchange. nice. clean bills.
A Decade Ago.
The problem of always having
clean currency in reserve was not
always so easily solved for the banks.
A decade or so ago. it was necessary
for banking houses to send an em-
pioye to \Vashlngton with the money
to be discarded. The mesSenger. ac-
cording’ to the requirements of the
Comptroller of Currency, was com-
pelled to witness the actual destruc-
tion of the money.
The establishing of the Federal '
R°SPTVQ Bank, however. did away
with all this. much to the satisfac-
tion of the banking institutions;
throughout" the country. who wire-g
forced to send a man to “‘asl‘ington’
several times during the year. ,‘
A recent announcement made by
the Treasury department broadcast-1
ed the fact that the upkeep of paper?
money costs the government aroundi
three per cent. of its face value. As;
a result it was said that an afford
would be made to place in rircula-l
tion in the Eastern states the silver
dollar. the maintenance of which1
costs practically nothing. But the;
question arises will the Eastcrneri
cram into his pockets the "cart;
wheels" which have bulged tho.

. optn up an account. Then the next
. ' Silver W.’ ‘ .
If the ultimatum is accepted. then
some way of carrying the silver dol-
i'ar will have to be devised. Bigger
and” deeper pockets snd’more of
them must be the slogan of-th’e tail-
or. (Maybe trousers will have
leather pockets). If not. then men
who are prone to carry any large
sum of money on their person will
be forced to resort to the carrying
of hand~bags,
Charles ' E. Hoyt, secretary and
tregsunr or the South Nat-walk
Trust company doubts very much
if the Treasury department will suc-
ceed in inducing the East to take
kindly to the use of the "cartwheel."
"It has been tried before." Mr.
Hoyt said. "but never with much
success. I do not. believe the silver
dollar will ever take the place of
paper money. The chief obioction
is to its size. Five or six of them
trill load your pockets so that it will
make you feel very wealthy indeed."
While discussing the merits of
paper money in preference to the
silver coin. fir. Hoyt relates an
amusing incident which happened
during the Cleveland administration
when he ~was a teller in s. Norwalk
bank. , t
"Money during the panic was very
scarce." Xr. Hoyt said, "and. there
was hardly any paper money in cir-
culation. Banks were unable to even
permit their biggest depositor to
withdraw any Very large sum.
Revenge 1 '
“Well. one day. a man came into
the bank where I was teller and
throwing down a check for $1,000 at
my window, asked me to cash if.
The man who was a. business man
did not have an account in our bank
but his own bank had refused to
cash the check.
"I looked the check over and told
him that ‘1 could not cash it for its
full value but suggested that he de-
posit it and withdraw it as he need-
ed to use it. He finally agreed to
day he sent one of his men over to
wltrnlraw the Whole 31,000.
"Now we had just received a ship-
m *‘ of silver ‘ dollars. So the

ing silver dollars and it took that

Mr. lioyt said. “the same thing will
happwn today. .The public will not
talc kindly to them.”

any rails are made for gold. Banks,

tions and corrected anything he
thought erroneous.
The former prcmlor‘s first com-
ment was “that vvas an important
mistake" when Senator H. Lemcry
asserted that the Dawn; commission
had not been hindered by the re-
strictions governing the work of the
Morgan committee which. had been
obliged to keep within the treaty
of Versailles and the London sched-
ule of payments.
\Vhen M. Lemery said that the
Ruhr occupation had brought in 3.-
000.000.0013 paper francs and re-
marked in addition that the esti-
mate of 3,000,000,000 francs from
the Ruhr was rather optimistic. M.
Poincare promptly interected. “No,
it's inside the truth." and he added
that the amount had been taken.
principally during the last few
months .
Debt Cancellation
M. Lerner-y suggested that the in-
ter-allied debts again promised to
give the French an opportunity to
voice their opinions on cancellation.
Discussing this matter. the Senator
continued: “In November. when the
Americans attend the conference.
doubtless they will take into consid-
eration certain facts and notably our
acceptance of the Dawes plan."
It is generally regarded as llrnost.
inevitable that the Senate will vote
confidence in M. Herriot and approv-
al of the London accord as the
chamber already has done. There
is much curiodty. however. to see
how the same men who were unani-
mous in their support or M. Poin-
care and his Ruhr policy will vote
an exactly reverse policy.

NEW YoiK, Aug. 26.—Dr. Hugo
J. Loebinger of 320 “'est Eighty-
flrst Street. graduate of Heidelberg
University and s. physician of wide
practice and reputed wealth. ,wa’s
arraigned before Magistrate .Vi-
tale in West. Side court today on
the charges of being at the head of
a. band of noted criminals the Post
Office authorities have been seeking.
The physician, who is 61 years
old. passed the last two nights in a
cell in the West Fifty-third Street
police station. notwithstanding the
urgent protests of Isaiah Lcebove.
his lawyer. that incarceration for
even a. single night might prove
fatal in view of his client's pre-
carious health. ‘
Dr. Loeblnger was arrested Sat-
urday in connection with an alleged
attempt by Benedict Radus of 202
West Eighty-first Street to sell 340.-
000 worth of stolen Liberty bonds
to a furrier named Wolfner for
$7.000. deus. it is charged, was
introduced to Wolfner by Dr. Loe-
binger. The physician himself
could not be reached in the jail by
newspapermen. but his wife vehem-
ently asserted that the charge
against him was baseless. He only
knew Radus and ‘Wolfner as pa-
tients of his and introduced them
with no knowledge of any proposed
criminal transactions. she asserts.
deus and two others will appear
in court today with Dr. Loebinger.
The two are Harry M. Moss. 26. an
electrioeai. of 1106 Suffolk Street.
and Harry Stone. 36. a salesman. of
300 $02r-d Street. Radus and
these two are said by the police to
have criminal records.
“’hen Dr. Loebinger appeared be«
fore Magistrate Vitals yesterday.
following his arrest on Saturday. it
was thought that he would be re.
leased on high bail. possibly :50.-
000. But at the urgent request of
Detective Thomas Reilly of the
bomb squad the Magistrate decided
to accept no ball at all. as liberating
the accused physician might. ac-
cording to the detectivc's conten-
tion. jeopardize the gathering of ex“-
dence needed to prove the existence
of the big criminal band.
Reilly openly contended that Dr.
Loebinger was the leader of this or-
ganlzation. though he would not
giV. details in court. or talk
newspapermen about them.
