CHICAGO, January 23.-The rail-
roads and union labor have returned
to the bargaining stage in their nego-
tiations for a voluntary $2l5,000 900
wage cut and unemployment relief.
The workers representatives planned
to draft a statistical reply today to the
arguments of carriers they needed the
money to restore credit and prevent
further bankruptcies.
What was supposed to be the final
plea of the rails was made yesterday for
two hours by Daniel Willard, president
of the Baltimore g. Ohio line, but the
800 union chairmen who heard him an
nounced afterward they were not ready
to vote on the cut.
They first wanted specific answers
from the rails on all points Of their
program for relieving distress among
their TOO 900 jobless and stabilizing work
in the future, their leaders said.
Willard assured them individual rail-
roads would do everything practicable
to put men back to work, but since
the start of the negotiations the work.

ployment for the same number at work
as in 1880.

BULLION FLOW CHECKED.
Business Men Heed Gandhi Warning
Merchants May Boycott Farley.

BOMBAY, India, January % (P).-
Needing a warning from Mr.. Gandhi to
check shipments of gold out of the
country, Indian business men with
Nationalists sympathies have succeeded
in damming the flow Of bullion. 1t was
announced today that this weeks gold
shipments from India were only 49,
100000 rupees, as compared with &c.
900 900 week ago. The sharp decline
was attributed to picketing Of the banks
and the government mint.
The government also has reSorted to
economic measures of sort.
1t was announced today that life
grants of money will be made to GER
tain persons on condition that the
recipients continue their good conduct,
showing steadfast loyalty to the King
Emperor and rendering active service
to the legal government.
The first individuals to benefit from
this device received grants today of $50
rupees (about $65), which will be paid
annually as long as they live. Half
that sum will be continued through
the next generation. There has been q
rush Of applicants.
1t developed today that Indian mer-
chants probably will refuse to particl-
pate in the deliberations of the round
table conference cOmm1tteeS WHICH are
on the way from London now.
The powerful Federation of Indian
Chambers of Commerce, after special
meeting today. sent a telegram to the
viceroy asserting, it was understood,
that the merchants will refrain from
cooperation with the government until
the series of sweeping emergency de-
crees recently enacted Is lifted. This
would amount to a boycott of the con-
ference committees.

AUTO GROUP TAKES
FIGHT TO CONGRESS
Opposition to Tax Increase
Plan Most Strongly Or
ganized So Far.

The most strongly organized oppo-
sition so far offered to the administra-
ton tax increase plan was to be pre-
sented to Congress today by leaders
of the automobile industry,
Combined for an intensive fight on
the proposed per cent sales tax on
automobiles, car manufacturers sent
their delegation before the House Ways
and Means Committee, with George
Graham scheduled to act as spokes-
man. Mr.. Graham is vice president of
the Rockne Motors Corporation, Stu
debaker subsidiary.
Ruinous Effects Feared.
Already group of the country's best
sknoWM automobile builders. had told
President Hoover the proposed tax
would destroy the Enlightened
prospects for this important industry.
Spokesman for the industry said today
$4,000 car dealers were joining in the
protest against the sales tax proposal,
assailing it as discriminatory"
Also appearing before the Ways and
Means Committee today was spokes-
man for the New York and Chicago
Stock Exchanges, protesting against
being singled out for tax increase .
William S. Benns of Chicago, testi-
flying for both markets, said the pro-
posed increase from 2 to cents a share
on stock transfers would reduce stock
values from $100,0OO0 900 to $150,0o0,000.
Imposed as War Tax.
"This was imposed as a wartime
tax" Bennett said, "and no effort has
been made to have it removed since
1924. 1t Is an irritation and a nuisance
and should have been repealed with
the other nuisance taxes.
But retained, there is no reason for
an increase.
I'VE object to being singled out for
an increase. We think 1t is time Tor
others to take a share in the honor and
distinction of supporting the Govern
ment."
Bennett put in the record a letter
from Richard Whitney, president o. OF
the New York Exchange, opposing the
increased levy recommended by Secre-
tary Mellon.
Back of these protests also appeared
strenuous opposition of the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States, eX-
pressed yesterday by a special Federal
Taxation Committee. In its report the
committee termed wholly unWarrant-
ed" the general tax policy which would
make the proposed increase in rates
retroactive.
The special committee has just com
pleted a critical survey of the financial
condition of the Government, which un-
reservedly assailed mounting eXpendl-
lures and called for program under
which prospective taxation would be held

miles per hour out Of the sky to lightly
touch his wheels at the airport here

Hawks planned to fly for Oakland,
Calf, stop briefly for fuel and proceed
to Portland, Greg, for another stop.
He expects to refuel at the same cities
on the journey back from Vancouver.
After having spent the night In San
Diego, Calf, about Is miles from here,
Hawks took off from Jindbergh Field at
8 minutes after A. At just a quarter
after 4 he was back over San Diego, en-
route to Oakland.
The official timer and handful OF
spectators were astonished at the speed
at which Hawks dived for the held

The night was clear and lighted by

disappeared to the North. When he
passed over San Diego Hawks was
flying very high.
There has been no round-trip,

ALL CABINETS BAFFLED.
European Situation Called Most Deli
cate Since World War.
BY WILLIAM BIRD .s,
BY Gable to The Star.

BY Cable to The Star.
PARIS, January % (C.P.A.l.-Opin-
ion in all the countries of Europe
today agrees on one thing-namely,
that the international situation has
never been more delicate since the war.
Beyond that there is little agreement
on anything and few signs that con-
structive measures are being planned
to bring about any agreement.
The French, British and German
cabinets seem utterly baffled by the
virtual stone wah that has arisen across
the path of international understand
ing. Heretofore, even in times OF
severe stress, somebody had been able
to come forward and indicate breach
in the wall through which glimmer
of light could be seen and through
which communications could pass. To-
day, in the worst crisis since 1914,
nobody can even hint at a possible
method of solution.
Laval Faces Paradox.
Premier Laval was in the paradoxical
situation this week of asking President
Hoover to prolong last Summers NOR
atorium, after Laval himself only three
months ago eXacted HooVer's promise
that no further moratorium proposals
would come from Washington.
Chancellor Bruening in turn fatty
rejects a moratorium extension. Even
Premier Mussolini can think of no way
out, except an all-around cancellation.
The French Chamber has listened all
week to Deputies of every political col
or telling Laval how to handle the sit
uation, but nobody got anywhere near
a practicable plan and the most ap-
plauded speech was Pierre Forgeot's,
recommending that the United States
not only forego war debts, but sign IN
international security pact.
The British cabinet, having domestic
troubles and threatened with disruption
over tariffs, has not yet decided wheth-
er to side with France against Ger
many or with the United States against
everybody.
The truth is that France is not near
ly so worried about Germany's Young
plan default as about a solution of the
war debt problem. The Hague treaty
Of 1880 requires the International
Court to grant Germany's debtors "en-
tire liberty of action" if Germany VOL
unfairly destroys the Young plan.
Reluctant to Take Lead.
Such a judgment by the Hague
tribunal would at least give France
complete moral satisfaction, even If no
advantage were taken of the courts
permission to reoccupy the Rhineland.
But France does not want, in her
turn, to be placed IN the position OF
defaulting to the United States and
England and thus losing such moral
compensation as she would derive from
Germanys default.

note. which disclosed this week that
the United States would view with dis
favor any joint action by European

charges Of smuggling money to con-
victs and secretly mailing letters for
them.
The investigation of the prison break
has led to the arrest at windsor, Can
ada, of Harry Fontaine, former Leaven-
worth convict. He is charged with
having smuggled into the prison the
firearms and explosives used in the
break. The weapons are alleged to have
been shipped to the prison shoe factory
in barrel labeled shoe polish.
It became known today that numer-
GUS guards have asked for transfer
from Leavenworth. The recent unrest
among convicts and reorganization Of
the guard system following the Decem-
ber break are reported to have in
fluenced some guards to seek other
