Issue Warning On
Sales OF Stock

Elmer Head, district attorney, is
in receipt of letter from the state
corporations department asking his
office to issue a warning to all re-
sidents of the county that a group
of swindlerS in the state are en-
gagged in selling worthless stocks.
Officials of the state department
in issuing this warning, suggest
that before people invest in stocks
they should insist that the sales
men show them their stock-selling
permit issued by the department.
This, they say, is the only means
a person has of knowing that he is
dealing with a reputable stock sales
man.
Head stated this morning that
he is particularly anxious that the
people heed this warning as he does
not wish a REPETITION of the Hart
case in which so many persons were
swindled in the county last year.

NEW YORK, April "a. = The

quieted down and was resisted to
the end
Early gains extended to more

peared as if bulls would be able to
push it across the 100 mark for the
first time since early February. 1t
touched 98as, up 39s points and
then ran into selling that brought
it down from the high.
u. S. Steel touched Az up rs
and then lost a point. 1t held
around 40 in the afternoon. Other
steel shares behaved about the
same.
Farm equipments rose to new
highs for the year on strength in
commodities, but eased off later.
Silver futures mounted more
than 100 points in active turnover
while the spot price of the metal
made a new high for the year. Sill
yer stocks, however, were not buoy
ed up as they were last week be-
cause of realizing.
Gold mining issues were depressed
to net losses.
General Motors and Chrysler
swung ahead into a last minute
buying rush on the stock exchange
Electric Auto-lite was active and
strong in the auto equipments. A
block of 10000 shares of General
Motors sold at 1872, up rs. The
stock closed at 1875, or within 4 OF
it's high for the year.
Sales today totaled 4,810,00(

RADICAL RIOT
IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, April "a. {U.P@A
group of men armed with guns,
knives, lead pipe and billiard cues,
invaded the fur district today and
engaged members of the Commun-
list Needle Trade Workers Indus
trial union in a battle that ended
with one dead and 10 wounded.
Three of the wounded were in
jured so seriously that police said
they might die.
The riot was described as the
most violent recent outbreak in
perennial warfare between right
and left wing unionists. About 100
members of the Communist party
were in the meeting rooms when
the squads of Is men arrived.
The invaders pushed their way
past guards at the door and ran
to the second floor where the meet
ing was in progress.
Apparently without warning, the
visitors opened fire, and began
swinging bludgeons and knives.
The screams of the surprised work
ers and the shrieks of women
sounded over fusillade of shots.
Thousands thronged toward the
union offices.
Witnesses said they heard rs or
more shots, land then men began
jumping out of the windows"
Some lay on the sidewalk and
some dragged themselves away.

Possible fight over senate confir-
nation of the appointment of Gov
ernor Rolph's son, James Rolph III
as member of the San Francisco
pilot commission, doomed in the up
per house today.
Senator w. P. Rich, Marysville
political enemy of the governor, re-
sisted the senate rules committees

firmation and requested action be
deferred until today. Confirma-
ton of appointment of seven menu
bers of the board of education and

The governor has referred to Rich
as my implacable political enemy.
Rich was a member of the Inman

Among the matters the committee
investigated were insurance con-
tracts given by the state admin

. From Conference

B. A. Harrigan, county agricul-
tural commissioner, has just re-
turned from Riverside where he at
tended the meeting OF agricultural
commissioners of the eight south
ern counties.
Routine matters of plant and pest
control were discussed, the local
office being particularly interested
in the plague of grasshoppers which
has been infesting the northern
part of the county.
Harrigan states that the pest is
being controlled by use of poison
and the eradication campaign is
making progress.
A sideWinder is the latest addi-
ton to the strange collection of pets
on display in the agricultural COM
misSioners office.
This deadly snake was captured
on top of the refrigerator at the in
spection station at Trifolium and
brought in to Harrigan, who, how
ever does not anticipate making a
pet of the sideWinder.

INDUSTRY To
OPPOSE BILL
BY WILLIAM F. KERRY
United Press Staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, April "a. WP)-
Alarmed industrialists and a thor
oughly aroused house minority to-
day joined forces for a stand
against the administrations propo-
sal for federal supervision of in
dustry.
The Black-Connery bill, revised
to meet White House specifications,
comes to its crucial congressional
test this week. Tomorrow hearings
begin before the house labor COM
mittee which may we'll decide the
economic course of the nation.
The proposal:
l. A 30-hour week, six hour day
for all industry to make more jobs.
2. A minimum wage for all work
ers to raise mass purchasing power
to the highest possible level.
3. National regulation of produc-
ton to equalize units within an
industry; reduce the huge sur
pluses which have crowded markets
and sent prices to ruinous levels,
and maintain employment at a
stable level.
Democratic leaders, still amazed
at the unparalleled scope of the adj
ministration's recommendations 10y
ally prepared to push the bill.
They conceded the pressure
against it was terrific. They were
convinced the measure would pro-
duce the high water mark of oppc-
sition to the Roosevelt program.
