LIVERPOOL, res. d.--Labor cap- tured the Wavertree lay-election to- day by a narrow margin, registering a straight gain from the Conserva- tives.

James Cleaiy, the Labor candid- ate, got 15,611 votes while the offic- ial conservative candidate, James Plait, polled 13,771. Young Ran- dolph Churchill, whose entry as an Independent Conservative split that party's vote, received 10.575 votes. Artro Morris, Liberal who made it. a four-cornered contest, got 4,208.

The by-election had been watch- ed with wide interest, particularly since the son of Winston Churchill, die-hard and former Chancellor of the lbichoquer, u: ced he would oppose Mr. Platt.

Defense Produces Further Testimony To Link Late Isador F‘isch To Crime.

(By John Ferris. Associated Pres! Staff Writer-

immnriomir, n. J., res. c- Further testimony intended to link

tho dead lsador Busch with the Lindbergh baby ransom cash and to show the maker's fingerprints should have shown on the kidnap ladder for six months marked Bruno Richard Hauptcnonifs clos- ing case today.

Counsel for the Bronx carpenter, on trial for the murder and kid- napping of Charles A. Lindbergh. Jr, mnrshalled a. new array of wit- nesses in the Hunierdon County courtroom today. They again pointed to Houpimannk friend. Pisch, and just before adjournment an attack on the state's case was made by a New York criminolo- gist Who testified the fintréfpfints of the ladders maker should have shown for six months, unless he were gloves.

‘Vculd Reveal Prints

Dr. Erastus M. Hudson, New York fingenxint expert, whose sil- ver nitrate process was demon- strated to the New Jersey State police three weeks after flhe kid- napping, which tosk place March l, 1932, swore today his method would reveal prints in the wood six months after they were made.

The expert quality of the phy- sician's testimony was regarded as the most effective blow to the state's case against Hauptmann as the builder of the ladder, the kid- neppcr and the "cliector of the 350.000 ransom.

The devfenoe also lnsinliated strongly that the authorities had made nail holes in one of the lad- der uprights to mrateh those in the beam in the attic of Hanptmsmfs home from which, the state ems-ms. a. niece of board was taken to be used in the ladder.

Dr. Hudson testified that when he elm-mined the ladder in March, 1932, lie noticed only one, and not iihe four nail holes which ncw ap- pear on the upright.

Defence Scores Point

The defence scored another point when it revealed that. a beer stein which had stood in a recess of the windowsiil of the Lindbergh nirrsery at the time of the kidnap- ping was hippareiltily not disturbed by the person who, the state says, went in and out the window.

Mrs. Gerta Henkel, friend of the Hauptrnann family. was called to the stand to testify that Huupt- manifs conduct toward her never was other than circumspect. al- though he had coffee at her home when Haupimnnn

PREVFNTIVE ARRESTS ARE MADE

Minor Clashes Occur As Fatal Riots Of Feb. 6, 1934, Are Commemorated.

(By Alexander K. Uhl) (Associated Prue Staff Writer) (AI. By Guardian's Special Wire)

PARIS, Feb. '1 —‘ ('I‘hursdi\y)— A dramatic last-minute descent up- on the capital of several thousand Communists from outlying "Red" districts was broken up by police early today with 1.200 "pmventive" arrests to commemorate the anni- versa;y of the fatal riots of Feb, 6, 1934.

Contiscating pistols, clubs and cans of explosive material, police pounced last night upon Commun- ist groups converging on the Place de La Concorde, focus of the bloody riots a year ago where 19 met death, after a generally quiet day marked only by memorial services and elaborate police precautions.

Armed Band Arrested

Shortly after midnight police ar- rested a band oi i0 Communists. armed with revolvers and dagzcrs. near the Elysee Palace, residence of the French president. Police said they wem heading for the Place de la Concorde.

In the earlier roundups two shots were fired but nobody was hurt.

The Reds were picked up at railroad stations, subway entrances and autobus entrances on the out- sklrfis of the city as they gathered from the “red belt" around Paris arid- headed toward the centre of the city.

'1‘1ie Communists, apparently re- sponding to orders of their leaders to assemble at the Place de is ‘Con- corde in case the rightists sought to gather there after their mem- orial meeting tonight. came fr.m the outlying suburbs in large groups.

EREDERJCTON, N. B, Feb. 6. - An increase in the potato export trade with the British West Indies is foreseen in official circles in New Brunswick as a result of the reduc- tion of water freight and rates be- tween Maritime and Caribbean ' ports.

G. C. Cunningham, New Bruns- wick agent for the Eastern Canada Marketink Board. said today: “The change in freight rates to the West India's will materially stimulate shipping, and give us an equitable bagls of competition with European stock, coming chiefly from Holland, England and Germany, and United States stock."

Mr. Cunningham said thpt, for- merly, the water freight rates from Baint John and Halifax to (Xrib- bean ports were l0 cents a barrel higher than from the West Indies to tho Maritime Provinces. The new adjustment equalize: the freight rates both ways.
