Declares That He Was Acting In Self Defense When He Fired Shots
SERMON AT FAULT
Tort Worth, Texaa. July 17—J. Frank Norrln, militant lumtor of the Fir.st BaptLst Church of Forth Worth, tonlRht was charged with murder in connoction wllh the killing of D. E. t^hipps, prominent lumbtir man. In tho office of Norris" newspaper, tho Kearc'hIJfrht, hero today. The news¬ paper olflco i.s located in the basement of the church.
Chipps, nn employe of the Missis¬ sippi I.-umbrr Company, was shot three times. Ono bullet entered above the heart and two others were In vital spots, physicians said.
Jj. H. Mack, deacon In Norris' church, was tho only eye witness of the shootinff. Mack's venslon of the NhpotiiiE: concurred closrly with tho written statement given officers by the   pastor.
According to Norris* statement, he was called on tho telephone by a per¬ son who identified himself na Chipps. In the course of thn conversation, Norris declared that Chipps said: "I am coming: up to your office nnd kill you for that sermon you preached last Hunday. I am poLng^ to kill you for what you said then and havo been saying.'*
A few minutes later, a man Identi¬ fied aa Chipps walked into Norris' of¬ fice,
"I was standing wilh my bacjc to¬ ward my desk," Norris said. "On"" the tai)1o lay a revolver that the janitor u.sed in his duties. When I saw that Chipps would not halt I seized tho sun and flred. I
"i do not. know how many times I fired."
The sermon which Norris believes brought about tho Iroublo leading to tlio shooting* was delivered last Sunday when the pastor severely arruigTied j Mayor H. C. Mcachum for alleged is-' suanco of an ultimatum to his em- 1 ployees against attendinir Norris* i church,
Meacham and Norris had long been bitter enemies. Norris charged from the pulpit that Meacham had told his employees to "cither resign your jobs or quit Norris*  church.'*
Why Chipps took offense at this is not known. Ho waa not an em¬ ployee at Meachem's store but Norris clings to  hia theory.

Girl Berry Picker Is Attacked While Returning From Mountain
Attacked by a .«;trange man on the Laurel Run mountain, Mary Kotch, ^" years old, of 78 Nicholaon street, ^Vitkes-Barre township, was under a rbyslcian's care at home last night *hile State police searched for her assailant. The chase was kept up until DiJlnight without any arrest.s being ''itt^le. It will be resumed today but the prospects of a capture being made ^^ slim,  the  authorities  admitted.
Tho attack on the Kotch girl was made at fi o'clock last evening ns sho was returning from a berry picking trip up the Wilke.s-Uarre faountaifi. She declares the .stranger pursued her through the wood-n until she waa ex hausted. She fought him off and even¬ tually managed to reach 'her home. A report was immediately made to township authorities and State police. The girl will be aonTiOAd to bed for several days.
Pari.s, July 17. (TTP)—The Hrland government, pledged to ratification of tho debt funding ngreemrnt with the United States and to early rehabilita¬ tion of French finance, re.signed to¬ day after defeat In tlie CiiHrnl>pr of Deputies. President Doumergue ac¬ cepted the resignation.
The vote was 288 to 243, and by this ballot the Chamber expre.-^scd ita sen¬ timents with respect to tho cabinct'a proposal that dictatorial powrrs be repoHOtl in it until November 30, 1926, for the purpose of meeting tho fln-* ancial  crisis.
The next Premlerahip tonight cen¬ tra nround Horriot because It was hla flght that forced the Brland cab¬ inet  to  resign.
Defeat came when the Chamber vot¬ ed against consideration of the finance commi.ssion's financial project. The govoi-nmcnt made this a question of confidence, demanding immediate con¬ sideration of this project so that it could bo t^UKposed of and the govern¬ ment's own financial project Intro¬ duced before the Chamber.
Minister of Finance Caillnux, who, under tho dictatorial powers bill would virtually have controlled the Immediate future of France. Inter¬ vened at the la-st moment with an Impassioned address in which ho warned the Chambar of the disa.^ter ahead unless strong hands Inime- dlattly were permitted to grapple with the financial problem. France, ho said, waa gradually, slipping into an ("¦onomic morass, almost without her' citizens realizing the uncomfortable depths toward which the country's course was leading.
Hen-iot ISuttles Brland
Extraordinary .scenes preceded tho misconfldenco vote. Former J*remier Edouard Herriot descended from hi.s place as President of the Chamber to attack the dictatorial powers bill as Hji assault on Republican institutions. Hi.s sharp words aroused Oristide Uri- and, th» veteran Premier, to anger and the two men tiattled for the confidence of the Chamber with every Deputy alert to the momentous potentialities of their oratorical play. Tho govern¬ ment, raising the spectre of dictator- bhip, charged the nuiical-soclalist Her¬ riot.
"If you do not us# theae powers,** replied lirtand, "there will be a finan¬ cial disaster.
Ijeon Blum, the socialist, shouted: "I would rather have a king than have these powers imposed on us."
Brland demanded that the Chamber approve the declaration of confidence 'IS quickly as possible, seeking to ob¬ tain the weapon of dictorlal authority in time to make use of It when tbe bourse opens Monday. He hoped to prevent further depreciation of th<i Fr*>nfb franc which, during the past week, has progressed with alarming speed   along the   jiath   worn   by   Oer-
