treaty was violated by the oc-
cupation of the former military
barracks at Kehl by fascist
bands and the removal from Office
by armed fascists of the mayors and
hlUgomasters of Cologne and other
Rhineland cities.
The French protest placed the
German facsist regime in the en-
barrassing position of repudiating
the action of its supporters, thus
exposing the demagogic nature of
its election pledges of stern re-
sistance" to the Versailles System or
basing its hopes on the knowledge
of imperialist support for the Ger
man reaction by appearing to reject
the French demand. Hitler rejected
as "unfounded" the French protest
Whereupon the entire reactionary
press hailed his action as a fascist
victory" and proof" that the fas-
cist regime will not tolerate the ex-
istence Of the Versailles System.
Meanwhile, the League of Nations
redoubled its efforts to conceal the
developing war situation from the
toiling masses and put through a
purely superficial and Intellectual
solution" of the quarrel between
Germany and Poland over the pol
ish Corridor" by inducing Poland to
promise to withdraw its troop rein

Colonel Joseph Beck, Polish For
eign Minister, promised to withdraw
the extra troops under pressure
from France and England who are
concerned with preparing the best
moral case" in the impending con-
flict which is already described as
inevitable" In both British and
French imperialist circles.

Food Price Rise
in Albany Forces
An Investigation

NEW YORK.--Rising food prices in
Albany has forced the mayor to call
a meeting of grocers and other food
distributors to investigate the rea-
sons for the increases. He will at
tempt the usual whitewash.
William Green, president of the
American Federation Of Labor again
added his voice to the demand of the
bosses for increases in commodity
prices (or indirect pay cuts) in a
speech before the Wilkes-Barre Gen.
trail Labor Council.

They demanded better food. The
other demands were then taken up.
Two men listed as "deserters" for
leaving the ship without permission
were reinstated, without fine.
1t was stipulated that the M.W1.U,
delegate should stay till the men were
paid.
A short while afterward he was
notified that the money, $1,000, was
there and every man in the black
gang was entitled to what he wanted,
up to his full wages due. Those of
the deck hands who struck with the
black gang also got draw.

80 Dead, Many Hurt by
Tornado in Tennessee

NASHVILLE, March l5.-Thirty
persons, including eight in the coal
mine town of Pruden, Tenn, were
killed here today when a tornado
swept over the Tennessee-Kentucky
border.
Throughout the night and early to-
day the list of dead and injured grew
as reports trickled in from rural COM
munities over damaged communica-
ton lines. Many we're killed in
Nashville, where winds howled over
houses, damaged buildings, uprooted
trees and Uttered the streets with
debris.

ers get away with the eXpro-
priation of billions of dollars
from small depos:tors.
Prices Stu Rising.
Prices are still rising. Espe-
cially is this true of all foodstuffs.
as well as practically all raw mater
ial. Lay-offs in industry still con-
tinue. In Massachusetts, there are
whole townsville one-industry tex
tile towns-where the working popu-
lation is facing absolute restitution.
The savings banks of that state
have not opened, except to receive
deposits, although there are oper-
ating on restricted scales 100 fed
eral and state banks.
Food has ceased to move into
many working class centers, espe-
cially the mill towns, with the result
that canned goods are being con-
sumed as the only available food.
The Deposit Balance Fake.
The kept press is pretending TO be
joyous over the fact that deposits in
the banks the first few days after
reopening exceed the Withdrawals.
They forget to mention the fact,
however, that this is because with
drawals are strictly limited and that
much of the deposits of the early
part of the week came from those
business elements who had not made
any deposits for more than a week.
These deposits will show a decline
and Withdrawals will increase when
the weekend payrolls are met and
at the end of the month will show
further changes. However, thi S
serves as propaganda to try to be-
guile people with money to take it
to the banks.
Wall ST. In Operation.
The prophets of optimism are pre-
tending to be joyful as the re-open1
ing of the stock exchange today saw
stocks and bonds move forward from
l to points in the first few hours.
This rise in the money price of stocks
is still lower than the inflationary
trend and is the inevitable result Of
readjusting the price Of stocks and
bonds to the deprecated money.
which sunk rapidly when the first
issue of new banl1notes was put out
an issue that amounted to more
than s2,0OO,OOO,0OO.
Dollar Falls on Other Markets.
The inflationary measures of the
government we're felt in foreign
markets as the dollar weakened on
all exchanges-another result of in
flation here.
There is no indication that in
creased production can be expected
in the immediate future, hence the
stock market gambling on the future
possibility Of extracting more surplus
value from workers cannot boost the
price of stocks on this basis.

Try To Rush Bill Thru

WASHINGTON, March 5. - With
the democratic-republican coalition
working smoothly, debate on the
Roosevelt 100000 900 swindie bill was
being rushed in the Senate in an eff
fort to get it passed before adjourn
ment tonight.
The bill, representing the wishes OF
the financial czarS of Wall Street,
turns over to Roosevelt powers pre-
viously vested in Congress and gives
him full authority to make drastic
cuts in veterans benefits and the
wages of government employees, in
GLIDING the members of the armed
forces.
Other Legion Chiefs Back Cuts
Other Legion chiefs have broken
their silence and come out in favor
of the bankers proposals. Among
them Is DR.. George Lawrence, New
York State Commander of the AM
erican Legion, who has issued a state
nent supporting the Roosevelt bill
Bitter resentment is sweeping the
rank and file of the Legion at this
open betrayal of the resolutions of
the Portland Ore, convention of the
organization.
The proposed sIashes in benefits
would affect 10000 World War vet
Grams, 100000 of their dependents,
$4,000 Civil and Spanish War vet
Grams, their widows and children, and
about 100000 civil and military gov
eminent employees.

(COntlnued rom IuBc U McGrath and Herman J. Weisman. Two others were named in the suit, former Judge Abner r. Hayes and former Deputy Sheriff John Weisman, who died since the note was, made.
 It is the contention Of the de- fcndants that the note was made out by the Lincoln Land Co. with the fivc named defendants as slm- plc cndorsers. Attorney Thoms ap- bearing for MT Fallon and Attorney Lynch appearing for Judge Mc- Grath claim tho defendants should bc excused from paying the hoto because the plaintiff failed to pre- sent the claim for payment or the notes against the estate Of John | Wcisman and Judge Abncr F Hayes. By falling to give notice ol I the notes to the executors or tht l two estates, Attorneys Thoms and Lynch claim the present three dc' rendnnts, under the law are ex- cused.
 Attorney GuIlfoilc claims the ln- stitution of the suit against the de- fendants k proper notice, and that the case should go through tnc ordinary channels to trial. It IA an unsual action in that the plaintiffs are not seeking to lore close the property, located at South Main and Grand streets that was given as security for the notes, but instead. are cndeavor- Ing to collect on tho note itself as q civil action.
 It Is expected that some inter- csting law will develop In the case before 1t is finally decided In the courts.

ance of $1,000,00O in funding bonds. There would be two issues of $500,000 to mature In forty years.
 A second Mahaney bill would amend the city charter on tempor- ary loans. At present the charter states that they must be paid not later than June l. The Mahaney bill would make this date, June 10. The change is desirable because the bulk of city taxes Is not available in the city treasury until May 3l. That does not give the city time enough to transfer sufficient money to New York or Boston to cover tho loans. The advanced date would allow the city leeway in the necessary financial transnction.>
 Senator Joseph Lawlor of Water bury appeared before the Judiciary committee this afternoon In sup port of the district court bill. The measure has the endorsement of Governor Cross and the judicial council. The state bar association was well represented at the hear | ing which attracted tho largest crowd of tho session to date.
 A bill was favorably reported to the senate to-day by the Judiciary committee calling for q change In the name of the Connecticut Agrl- cultural college. The new name, as proposed by committee named two years ago to consider this prob. lem, is Connecticut State college There was some opposition voiced by representative of the Connecti- cut College for Women at New Lon- don.
 The house received an unfavor- able report from the Judiciary com mlttee to-day on bill giving chir- opractors the right to sign death certificates. The house rejected the bill. The issue, however, i9 not dead as there are several more bills also giving the same rights.

both judges must concur on ap- points. it was sponsored two years ago by Prosecutor William J. Larkin and Clerk William Gil- lette of the Waterbury common pleas court and assured both these officials, republicans, of their posi- tions.
 Democrats in the senate expect to exert pressure on the Judiciary committee to force q favorable re. port on the Hackett bill repea1- ing tho "Hnper" measure. Failure to do th.s may result in the reso- lution rcappointing Niles Y. Me- Mfr deputy judge of the Water bury common pleas court being killed. Local democrats insist that that they are entitled to at least two of the four appointive positions in the court.
 The four nppolntive positions are those of prosecutor held by MT Larkin; clerk. MT Gillette; assistant clerk, Miss Gertrude Miknaitis. and court messenger, George Wiley. All four are republicans, while of the two judges, Edward J. Finn is q democrat and Miles Y. McNiff c republican. There seems to Dc q WeIl-IOunueo opinion in democratic circles hero that the McNiff appointment may be completely blocked unless c compromise Is affected. This might result in the approval by the sem ate of the bill naming Attorney William k Lawlor of Waterbury deputy judge of the common pleai court. This resolution might noi pass the house, but the senate would pass 1t and Gov Cross make a recess appointment Of the demo- cratic candidate, thus insurlng the democrats of all the appointlvt positions.
 At the same hearing before tho Judiciary committee a bill intro. duced by Senator Howard AlcorI will be heard. This bill would put the common pleas courts of tho state on the same basis as tht superior court. In other wordi common pleas court judges woult 10 on e circuit instead of merely serving in the towns in which the, reside.
