CUBAN POLICE
FIRED Upon

HAVANA, Cuba, May 10. U.Pf-
A spectacular gun battle between
four youths in a closed automobile
and a squad of secret police in an
other car startled the center of Ha-
vana today, endangering the lives
of passersby.
Reports said a bomb was thrown
at the police car from the other
in the prado in front of the Grace
Line offices. Pursuit then started
through the prado, into Central
Park, past the capital building and
into Reina street. The youths out
distanced police and abandoned
their car.
Police said the automobile con-
tanned a machine gun and several
rifles. None of the police was in
jured. The police car bore 10 bull
let holes.
The movement of troops in dis
turbed Santa Clara province was
augmented today. Maj. Arsenic Or
tiz was at his headquarters at Gle
go de Avila, preparing to ambus-
cade Bias Hernandez, who is be-
lieved to be the leader of the reb-
els.

tie against federal troops with hea-
Wy casualties.

BONUS ARMY
BADLY SPLIT.

WASHINGTON, May 10. <U.P)-
The bonus camp at Fort Hunt,
split again by factional disputes,
seethed today with discord and
murmured threats of physical vio-
lence.
With leaders and followers quar-
reling and tempers rising, the main
body of about 1900 veterans cam
celled their scheduled parade to the
capitol and White House this af-
ternoon. There was a possibility
that 200 fright wing" members
might parade anyway.
The right wing" which had half
heartedly joined forces with the
others for few days, split away
again at a turbulent meeting in
Washington auditorium yesterday.
Interested in the bonus and the
bonus only, it walked out when the
meeting adopted resolutions for
government aid to the unemployed
and farmers.
Down with Moscow and ITO
He'll with Communism" the 200
shouted as they marched out un-
der leadership of Ralph L. Voight
of ST. Louis A riot previously had
been averted when quick witted
leader brought the men to atten-
ton by playing THE Star Spangled
Banner" on a squeaky pnonograph.
Although the convention yester-
day adopted resolution agreeing
to disband on Monday as the ad-
ministration requested, postpone
ment of today's parade was viewed
by some as a play for time in an
effort to prolong the gathering
here. The convention overwhelm-
ingly voted down President Roose-
velts offer to enroll the veterans
in the reforestation corps.

basSador of peace" in Europe, was

curity plan before the world dis
armament conference meeting Fri
day. Secretary of State Hull expe-
dited preparations for the world &C.

Chancellor Hitler's speech, we'll
received here, appeared to end the

King George of Great Britain.
President LIE Brun of France and
heads of 10 other nations promised

ba, Mexico Panama and Switzer-
land.
These messages did not bind the
governments to accept details of

CLAIM ROOSEVELTS MESSAGE
INFLUENCED HITLER SPEECH

Washington, with influencing
ROOscvelt's message.
Hitler's speech was regarded
here as a master stroke, caIcu-
lated TO throw full responsible
ity for the success or failure of
world disarmament directly
upon France and other coun-
tries.
BY making his assurance en-
phatic that Germany was ready
to agree to any scheme of in
ternational cooperation, by en-
dorsing the Macdonald plan
and signifying willingness to
give up the present German
army and Germany's defense
system, providing qualitative
equality with other powers was
established, Hitler had made it
impossible for any further set
back at the disarmament con-
ference to be blamed on Ger
many, officials believed.

WASHINGTON, May 18. - The
Morgans, the Rockefellers and the
Louisiana Kinkfish will dominate
consideration of the Glass banking
reform bill, which, after weeks of
delay is the pending legislative
business in the senate, it appeared
today.
The Louderback impeachment
trial obstructs bank bill progress,
but senate leaders believe they can
end it by Saturday night or Mon
day. On motion of Senator Bulk
ley, DEM, Ohio, the Glass bill late
yesterday became the unfinished
business to which the senate will
turn when Judge Harold Louder
back and his lawyers depart.
Senator Long, Dem, La, whose
filibuster blasted the bank bill last
winter, seems destined now for a
somewhat altered role The king
fish centered his fire last session
on the branch banking provision
of the bill and whitfield it down
to provide authority for national
banks to operate branches only in
states which authorize branch
banking.
The new bill contains the branch
bank section accepted by Long af-
ter three weeks of picturesque fill
clustering. The "kingfish's" new
fight is developing in another di-
rection-to obtain extension to all
state banks of proposed bank de-
posit insurance protection.

He reported the session a siren

Legislation which would please
all parties is an impossibility, he

FOR REFORM Of BANK SYSTEMS
Rockefeller-Morgan Combination Expected
To Wage Bitter Fight Against Measure
Designed To Lessen Financial Power.

test, the colorful Louisianan is ex-
pected to battle for the Rockefel-
lers and their Chase National bank.
President Roosevelt, likewise, will
be on the Rockefeller side if he
becomes directly involved.
Must Change Business
In one provision the Glass bill
would compel all members of the
federal reserve system to abandon
investment banking within two
years. Commercial banks engage in
investment banking Ehrough Sc
curity affiliates, thus evading the
law forbidding banks to underwrite
securities.
Another provision would require
J. p Morgan and Co., and all
other private investment bankers
to abandon commercial banking OPP
erations such as the receipt of de-
posits, thus handicapping their in
vestment business.
1t would appear that the bill
strikes at commercial banks and in
veStment banks with equal force.
Many commercial banks, however,
under leadership of the Rockefel-
ler- controlled Chase National, have
admitted they never should have
become investment bankers in the
first place, and have taken action
to divorce or disband their securi-
ties affiliates.
But The Gause of Morgan and
other great private banks have
shown no disposition to accept
without protest legislation which
would restrict their business.
