OLD SCH0OLMATE
FEARS WRATH OF
ITALIAN PREMIER
BY LYLE G. WILSON
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. .. W.H-
A former sehoolmate and political
'co-worker of Premier Mussolini is
pleading with the labor department
against deportation to Italy on the
grounds his old time friend would
put him in Jail, investigation at the
department disclosed today.
The man is Armando Borghi, al
legged philosophical anarchist and
enemy of Mussolini. who says the
Italian consul general in Boston
confiscated his Italian passport in
an effort to cause his deportation
with the idea of punishment in Italy
for anti-Fascist activities here.
No decision has been made, but
indications were that Borghi's philo-
sophical anarchism would not be
considered so seriously as to require
his enforced departure from the
United States. Although the law
is specific on the point Of requiring
deportation of foreigners who be-
lieve government should be abol
ished, there is no disposition now
to apply the statute against persons
who do not advocate violence, it was
intimated to the United Press.
Borghi offered to leave the Unit.
cd States for any other county ex-
cept Italy but says he is unable to
do so because his passport has been
confiscated.

pared today to leave with his family
for the southwest to regain strength
to fight the one year Jail sentence

ment to the senate oil committee
that T.. b. Mclean, Washington
publisher. loaned it to him.
wf | alone had suffered the con-
sequences Of my act | could depart

Fall's appeal will be perfected in
the next 10 days, after which his
lawyers will have three months to
prepare and file the transcript with
the district OF Columbia court Of

in the hills east Of the city, and that
for q time threatened to sweep into
the residential section as did the
disastrous $l0,000,000 fire of 1923,

morning through the efforts of fire
men. boy scouts and university OF
California students.

break and were sweeping down
toward the University of California
campus when q lull in the 40 mile
wind enabled the scores Of fire
fighters to bring them under control.
George Yocco, of Alameda, men,
Der of party Of surveyors, told
Fire Chief George Haggerty today
that he was responsible for the fire.
He was working with n party un-
der the direction of County Surveyor
George Posey at the time. He lighted
a cigarette and dropped lighted
match near his tripod. The grass
quickly caught fire and spread.
The party attempted to extin-
guish the blaze but failed. They
were still fighting it when firemen

vealed here today.

TARDIEU HOPES
FOR SUCCESS IN
FORMING CABINET
COnfers With BRAND And
Other Leaders To Ac-
cOmplish Hard Job.

PARIS, Nov. >. (J.H-Andrc Tar
deus efforts to form government
seemed doomed to failure today
when the radicals by a substantial
majority refused 30 authorize any
of their party t. coilaborate in Tar
Gicu's cabinet.
Without the assurance of at least
a certain amount Of support from
the radicals, it appeared unlikely
that Tardieu would be able to form
cabinet that could command q
safe ma .ority in the chamber.
The radicals voted against collab-
Grafton by 46 to Is.
Despite the refusal of the radicals
to Join him, Tardicu continued his
efforts to compose a cabinet. He
resumed conferences with the lead
ers of the left end center hoping to
obtain sections Of o bloc if he could
not have the bloc as a whole. Some
of his friends still were of the
opinion today he would succeed.
If he fails and decides to re-
nounce the task, it. is believed in
many quarters, the crisis may lead
to dissolution of parliament and
the holding of u general election.
The opposition of central sections
of the chamber to Tardieu was in
tensified today by his inclination to
turn to the senate rather than to
the chamber of ministers.
In refusing collaboration, the radi-
Gals promised to Judge the new
cabinet impartially but it is almost
certain that many radicals will dis
obey their leaders and will vote for
Tardieu.
Tardieu' intended tc have his cabi-
net complete by 1c F. IN. permitting
publication in the official journal
tomorrow.
Tardiue had a lengthy conference
with Aristide BRAND this afternoon.
Both leaders considered ways and
means by which q majority might
be obtained in the chamber. One
of the principal questions was
whether or not Tardieu should offer
portfolios to the group known as
the Union of ReDGbilcanS and Demo
Gratis. Headed hv Louis Marin, it
was this group which abandoned
the BRAND cabinet on the reopening
of parliament and helped to precipi-
tate the present crisis.
Tardieu went to the Elysee palace
this afternoon to ccquaint President
Doumergue with the result of his
conference with Briand, Locheur
end Cheron. He was expected to
announce cabinet shortly after
Z p. n.
When Tardieu left Doumergue, he
;old the United Press his cabinet
was nearly completed. He then
went to his office to finish the dis
tributiop of portfolios.

FIRM HEAD SILENT
Depression Prevails In
Hundreds OF Homes AS
Savings Wiped Out.

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. .. U.D-
An atmosphere of depression pre-
vailed in thousands of homes in the
west today after the failure Of the
W. h. Forshay Co., Minneapolis.
which operated public utilities, in
vestment companies, steamship lines.
banks and real estate firms from
Alaska TO Central America.
The huge organization, headed by
Wilbur B. Forshay, and with prop.
critics estimated at more than $780,
100000, went into the hands Of
receiver today.
Financicrs and DANCERS were at
loss to advance reasons for the fail
ure.
Forshay, the directing genius OF
the widespread organization, who
came here u years ago and whose
uamc is blazoned in electric lights
atop his recently completed SO story
office tower building here, may
have told the cause Of the collapse
but he was silent.
81 have nothing to say at the
present time he declared, 1--WE did
all we could.'
There were those, however, who
believed that n contributory cause to
the rapidly developed firms failure
was the lavish dedicatory celebration
provided by Forshay when his tow
cr 1.-The Washington Monument OF
the West was thrown open to the
public.
Crash Not Blamed
A large amount Of money was
spent on The monster celebration at
which Secretary OF War Good was
principal speaker and Sousa's band
gave series of concerts.
There were those also who looked
upon the imposing tower, supposedly
financed largely by large sales to
working people, as an unwise invest
mcnt considering the tremendous
rental value of the land on which
the slender tower was built.
Few believed the crash was in any
way connected with the recent turn
Of events in Wall Street.
Among the first to feel the pinch
of the crash were depositors Of the
Forshay State Bank Of st. Paul,
which closed at noon by order OF
the state. There had been n run on
the institution during the morning
and when the "closed" sign was
put on the door at noon many of the
/ 500 depositors who arrived too late
stood on the sidewalks outside ex-
citedly discussing the affairs.
No criminal action was contem-
plated against Forshay and his as
sociates, at least pending IN official
statement on the institution 5 fin
