The Bombay government simulta-
neously declared 80 Congress organiza-
tons illegal and arrested every Ma
tionalist leader upon whom 1t could lay
its hands. including some notables, like
x. F. hartman, president of the Youth

policy of creating Congress courts and
boycotting British law agencies. The

three or four months of Imprisonment

Although troops are standing by for

Endurance Contest.
The London press enthusiastically
headlines, Congress Wiped Out" in
chronicling the 125 arrests, but such
a verdict is premature. The next weeks
will show how real is the strength of
which the Congress boasts. 1t is claim
ed there are $4,000 volunteers in Bonn
bay alone ready to fill the places of the
leaders arrested by the British. APP
parently 1t will be an endurance con-
test in which victory lies with the party
the longest able to keep the Offices fill
ed or untitled.
Meantime a little board of strategy,
whose identity is not known, actually
directs the Congress activities from safe
and secret headquarters. The Congress
boasts that arrests of official leaders
do not impede its real activities, but
meantime inflame against the British
popular opinion and all Indians having
anything to, do with the round table.
There may even be some protest at
the round table, when it convenes here,
against police repression of the Con-
gress.

Hours in Protest Against
Unemployment.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HAVANA, March 20.--A 24-hour gen.
eral strike In protest against unemploy-
ment was inaugurated in Cuba at mid
night. The island was peaceful and no
arrests were made. Police charged the
strike was in compliance with orders
from the Third Internationale at Mos
cow.
1t was estimated 100000 workmen
walked out. The Cigar Makers Union
was the first to call halt to all labor
until Friday morning. Street car and
omnibus operators left their vehicles at
am. Walters and employees Of all
restaurants and cabarets left their
aprons on the wall hooks at midnight.
Public utility plants and railroads
alone were not affected, the view being
taken that these were necessary to
public welfare. Heavy police guards
were maintained in their vicinity but
no trouble was anticipated.
One Newspaper Publishes.
Havana had but one newspaper today.
Ell Mundo. Spanish language daily. The
typographical Union members, who in
SuO0 4iAS1uOC GSpDAtCAS 40 well 40 1lLlO@
type operators, walked out Of Diario
de Ia Marina at 9 pm. wednesday.
Four other papers were affected SINH
larly.
The workmen at FL Mundo remained
ct their machines in the face of warn
ings that they would all be subject to
penalties from their labor unions.
Every trade and industrial union joined
IN the strike except those connected
with the utilities and railroads.
Leaders Urge Order.
Labor leaders insisted that the strike
would be orderly and that every effort
would be made to conduct it in a
peaceful manner. The only action con-
templated by the police was to prevent
property damage or personal violence.
Nevertheless, police were kept at
strategic points In the city, and, reports
from the provinces indicated, in other
cities on the island. A close watch was
maintained at all labor federation
headquarters and union halls.

LOCAL PLAYERS PLAN
TO TRY TO WIN CUP
Prize Dramatic Production May Be
Staged in Belasco Contest
in New York.

washington is to sponsor q New York
dramtic production If the plans Of the
Columbia Players to enter their prize
winning one-act play, when the Ship
Goes Down." in the Belasco Cup contest
go through. The performance Of 1.-THE
Great Catherine" tomorrow night at the
Central High School auditorium is D
part of the program for raising funds
for the New York venture.
The Shaw comedy, built around the
character Of Catherine the Great, which
will be played by Aurora Poston, was
chosen because Of the few opportunities
that local audiences have had to see
Shaw in recent years. especially this
very amusing but seldom produced
comedy.
A feature Of the production will be
authentic period furniture, loaned for
the occasion, which is valued at $50 900,
and which typifies the barbaric splendor
that contrasted with the strange crudi-
ties Of the court, which Shaw uses as
the background for his satire.
The principal players in 1.-The Great
Catherine" are as follows: Aurora Pos
ton, the director; Anne Ives, Dorothea
Lewis, Helen Burton, George Odell, H.
r. Baukage, Joe Bourne and A. e.
Dubber.
The Columbia Players have won the
prize the past two years in the Drama
Guild tournament and took their play
last year to New York to enter the
Nationwide tournament. The proceeds
from the coming play viii 60 to send
them to New York In May to enter
When the Ship Goes Down" in the

LONDON, England, March 20.4Pre-
mier Mussolini has refused Premier An
DIRE Tardieu's proposal Of $4,000 tons
for France to 100000 tons for Italy, it
has been learned. The italian delega-
ton here confirms the fact that Premier
Mussolini insists on parity with France
Internationally. This decision appar-
entity ruins one Of the last hopes of the
conference.
Secretary Stimson and Prime Minister
Macdonald lunched together today, had
long talk afterward and, according to
rumor, were unable to agree on the
figures they would propose to France
and italy. This seems to mean that the
United States is willing to grant sthese
two powers higher tonnageS than are
acceptable to Great Britain, which holds
firmly to the two-power standard VISA
Wis on the continent.
At the same time the United States,
apparently for the present, Is unwilling
to accept increases in tonnage over the
RapidAn agreement figures, which the
British admiralty feels It must insist
upon in case Of q three-power agreement
excluding France and Italy, or a two
power agreement excluding also Japan.
The general feeling Is more pessimis-
tic than on any previous occasion. since
the opening Of the conference.

ROME, Italy, March 20.-Any at
tempts by the delegations at the Lon
don Naval Conference to form q four
power pact, excluding Italy, which
press reports indicate Is being consid-
cred. will not brighten the Fascist gov
eminent in the least and, II anything,
will increase It's insistence on parity
with France, according to Fascist
newspapers.
In the first place italy would consider
any such more Is nothing more than
a threat by the other powers to make
her give concessions to France. This
attitude of officials here Is strength
ened by the previous nnaneuvers OF the
other London delegations who once
threatened q two.power pact between
the United States and Great Britain
to force Japan into line and then sug-
gested a three-power pact between the
United States, Great Britain and Japan
to bring pressure to bear on France.
Even though q four-power pact were,
concluded it would help more than IN
lure Italy, the press declares, because
the world at large knows that Italy
l. the only country that has really
made q serious attempt to secure dis
armament at the present conference;
IF Italy, the power which has de-
Tended the principles Of the conference
at London, should be left out Of an
agreement simply because it insists
upon the principle of parity of forces
the only one which excludes possibili-
ties of aggression--the general public
would understand that the formula OF
disarmament Is understood by its
apostles only as q medium for disarm-
ing other countries and placing them
in the condition Of perennial In
feriority," declares II Piccolo.
