Charlestown, West Va. Aug 13. (UP)-Governor William c. Con- ley has been eng0lfed in q flood of protests against governmental ex- travagance and an alleged family payroll racket that resulted in a shouted request that he be im- peached. The executive is charged with building up an income to him. self and members of his family that exceeds $38.000 annually in state salaries.

 House Delegate J. Shirley Ross, democrat, opened the attack with resolution directing that payrolls in various state departments be submitted to the house.

The resolution applied to all state officials.

 Berlin, Aug 13-(U. P.1--Adolf Hitler's brown shirted storm troops are massing and drilling 10000 strong in Berlin. while their leader awaits decision on his demand that he be given the nations sec ond highest office, the chancellor- ship.
 They have been reported mobil- izing as a threat to help their col- orful leader gain the power he has sought. There have been conflict- ing reports on the truth of the re- ports.
 I went out into the outskirts of Berlin, the small towns nearby. in- to corner saloons. into side streets. into some of the larger towns with- in quick marching distance of the capital to learn what was the truth. sA
 have seen the brown shirts gathering. have seen them drill- ing.
 They certainly are preparing for action! What that'action may be, do not know.
 The brown shirts constitute an army of wartime proportions 500,- 600 strong in Germany. The most rigorous discipline is maintained. . The troops are billeted in bar racks reminiscent of 1916. Their undercover men are aboard in Ber- lin, ever active, engaged in the drive which they hope will put their leader into power.
 Units of the Hitler army are es- tablished in the capital, with ''out- posts" maintaining headquarters in corner saloons. They are impress sively serious. There can be no doubt that their activities consti- ute an ever-present danger to na- tional peace. There is grave danser of civil disturbances at any mo- ment.

 He declared that the president had exaggerated greatly the bnnefft from the emergency relief meas. ures, that no factor had contrib- uted more to the paralysis of for- egn and domestic commerce than thu /Smoot-Hawley tarff act; that the president dd not give even a cloudy picture of what changes he favored in the prohibition laws and that the administration of the farm marketing act had failed to stop the decline in the prices of agricultural products. sa
