BUSINESS RIVALS
 DESCRIBE BATTLE
HaberSki Fined for Punching MonkieWicZ, Former Employer

Some years ago. Leo Habcrski. who is now 35 years of age. was Frank Monkiewicz's apprentice boy in the carpentry trade. but as the years passed Haberski improved his knowledge until he became Mon- kiewicz's equal. at least in his own estimation. Bad blood has developed between them. so much so that Monkiewicz, when he sees Habersili on the street, crosses to the other side. but last Saturday. when they met in Martin Grabowski's store on High street, there was no street to cross and they clashed.
 In police court today. Haberski who lives at 566 Pennington avenue. was tried on the charge of breach or the peace and assault, and was fined SIS and costs by Judge M D. Sake. MonkiewiCz told of going in o the store and receiving a punch in the eye simply because he pushed Haberski when the latter blocked his exit. He was wearing glasses and the blow broke them and inflicted d cut on his eyelid. necessitating a stitch; He deinied that he had any argument with Haberski, but admit ted that he would not walk on the same side of the stree with him. having had trouble and falling out 10 to 12 years ago.
 TN1tting Leads to Blows
 Haberski's story was that he had been in the store fully an hour nc- fore Monkewiicz, who lives at 1S1 Smith street, came in. Both had some drinks before Monkiewicz. who lives at lSi Smith street, came IF, Both had some drinks before Mon- kiewicz reminded Haberski of his apprentice boy days. to which Ha- berSki retorted that while it was true that he had learned the rudi- ments of the trade from MonkiewiC2. he was now "as good as him" T told him he could not read a ruler or write his own name" Haberski admitted. This angered MonkiewioA, according to Haberski. and he callnd him vile names and rushed at him. grabbing him by the coat ani threatening him. In self defense. Haberski claimed. he punched his former boss but it all happened so quickly he did not notice that MoI- kiewicz was wearing glasses.
 No Revocation, Judge Finds
 Judge Sake found that Habersli was without sufficient provocation and therefore guilty Of assault. His own admissions convicted him, the court found. and Assistant prosecut- ing Attorney w. M. Greenstein re- marked that Monkiewicz might have been maimed by the assault Testi- mony was offered by a witness to offset Nonklewiczs claim that ac had been in the store only few minutes when he was attacked Ac- cording 10 this testimony, Monkie- wicz and Haberski were talking for two hours before a blow was strucN. Attorney Lawrence J. Colon repre- scented Haberski
 Sergeant r. A. McAvay told of re- ceiving MonkieWicz's complaint and talking to Haberski after the arrest. Both men appeared to have been drinking and HabcrsN admitted

LONDON, May 19.-Although
Premier Benito Mussolini's speech at
Florence, Italy, Saturday was inter
preted in many quarters here today
as partly intended for home con-
sumption, it also was considered an
attemptto intimidate France on
the parity question at the forthcom-
ing post-nayal conference negotia-
tons.
The latter possibility was believed
to explain the reluctance of official
circles to comment, on the theory
that to do so might jeopardize An
glo-F Italian conversations.
1t was remarked in some quarters,
however, that the fact that the
speech conceded with Aristide Bri-
and's United States of Europe cir
cular may have influenced Musso-
Ini's enthusiasm, the idea being that
Italy might have desired to assert
herself on the eve of any possible
negotiations for an European union.
Mussolini's reference to Italy's pop
ulation, it was believed, was a clear
indication that he intends to seek
European recognition of Italy's rank
as a European power based on the
number of its inhabitants as COM
pared with other European total
populations.

COOL GREETING
TO PROPOSAL OF
UNITED EUROPE
Survey of Opinion Shows No
Enthusiasm for BRAND
Plan.

BIZ United Press
LONDON, May 19.-The first un-
official reaction tc the definite plans
Of Aristide BRAND, French foreign
minister, for a union of European
countries was hesitant, if not UNI
favorable
A survey of opinion in Britain
and continental countries indicated
little enthusiasm for the plan, and
many observers were pessinistic in
view Of several striking national
istic occurrences of the weekend.
The speeches Of Premier Musso-
lini of Italy, and of Premier Andre
Fardieu Of Franee-both strongly
chauvinistic-were contrasted by OBJ
servers with the BRAND scheme for
an international union by which
Europe could unite to live and
prosper"
The press of Great Britain in
dicated g belief that q federation
such as Brands QUESTIONABLE of
Saturday proposed was not desirable
at present, and probably would not
attract England later. Both empire
affairs and Anglo American re-
lations caused British hesitation.
Germanys desire to see the
league OF nations bind European
countries and the ever-present fear
of her conservative elements that
France would dominate any Eu-
ropean union at present, prompted
reserve in press comment in Berlin.
The press of Rome reserved
comment but the general opinion
of observers there was that the plan
would be received without en-
thusiasnn.
Other European countries were
reserved in comment or altogether
silent, some of the small nations
still fearful of being dominated by
large powers in any United States
of Europe.

Premier Mussolini at Florence,
Italy, in which he promised full
hliment of his governments naval

If any one attached Importance
to the Florence speech, then the

"Mussolini tears down the prin-
ciples on which most modern states
are established. What presages this

The disaffection in the dry

Senator McKellar CD OF

the band led by Senators Borah

the Eighteenth Amendment can
never be enforced so long rs
politicians control the personnel
OF the governments enforcement

MeKeliar blame d President
Hoover and Secretary of the

His contention was shat no presi-
