BAN ON
GERMAN PRESS
By FREDERICK KUH
United Press Staff Correspondent

BERLIN, Feb "A decree cur
failing the freedom of the press
was signed today by President Won
Hindenburg. The decree was un-
derstood to include the same essen
tial provision as an edict issued
when Franz Won Papen was chan
cellor, which was rescinded by
Chancellor Kurt Won Schleicher.
The new decree was expected to
be published tonight. 1t followed
action of the government of Adolf
Hitler in ,suppressing the Commun-
ist organ Vorwaerts for three days
on charges of high treason and
inciting to uprising"
The Communist newspaper Rote
Fahne already was under suspen-
sion. The decree was expected to be
applied chiefly to extremist publi-
cations. Formerly, newspapers crit
icizing the government or calculat-
ed to create political strife have
been subject to suspension.
Nationalist quarters close to DR..
Alfred Hugenburg, new German
food controller, reported that the
government was contemplating a
three to four months total inter-
nal moratorium on agricultural
debts to afford stable basis for
further farm relief.
The report appeared in the Ma
tionalist newspaper Kreuz zeitung
and was generally assumed to have
emanated from the food control
ler's office. Official confirmation
was lacking.
The total agricultural indebted
ness is officially estimated at H.
0OO,0OO,000 marks, although private
estimates are as high as $4,000, ,000,-
900 marks, or approximately So
5OO,OO0,0OO.

ARCTIC FLYER
CHEATS DEATH

NOME, Alaska, Feb. 4. U.P)-
Alaska's intrepid aviatorS today
held another dramatic victory over
the bleak northland's hazardous
weather with the safe arrival here
of five persons, including four
months baby.
Bob Reeves, veteran Alaskan pi-
lot, landed here last night with
his four passengers, Mr.. and Mrs.
Ole Hay and their 4-year-old son
and four -months-old baby, after the
party had beer forced to spend
three days in temperatures rang
ing down to 65 degrees below zero.
None of the party suffered i'll
effects from the experience.
Reeves took off from Fairbanks
Tuesday with the Hay family who
were returning to their home here
after visit to Seattle. A short
time later they ran into a blizzard
and Reeves was forced to land his
ski-equipped cabin plane in small
clearing 70 miles northeast of
Shaktoolik.
A crude shelter was hastily erect
ed and bonfires we're kept burning
to protect Mrs. Hay and the two
small children from the Arctic
Storm They ate concentrated food
rations which Reeves carried in
his plane for such emergencies.
The blizzard abated Wednesday
but the temperature remained near
so degrees below zero Reeves had
to build fire under the engine
of his plane in order to get it
started.

Killing Frost
During Night

Imperial Valley was visited by
killing frosts last night but due to
the air being so dry slight damage
to fruits and vegetables resulted,
according to F. A. Baughman, frost
expert and government weather
bureau representative in the valley.
Minimum temperatures were 26
degrees in some scattered sections
of the valley, said Baughman. Tenn
peratureS fluctuated widely this
morning, falling rapidly when the
wind died down and rising when
the wind arose.
This fluctuation was caused by
the drynesS of the atmosphere,
Baughman explained, as the dew
point was low. A high pressure
area covering the western portion
of the country, centering over Ne
vada, caused the lowered tempera-
lures. Winds blowing from the
center off the Rocky mountain
plateau brought cold air into val
leys. Air is compressed when seek
ing lower levels and thus is dy-
namically heated, Baughman said.
AS the temperature of the air in
creaseS the relative humidity de-
creases.
Although the temperatures were
below 80 degrees this morning. no
frost was observed This condition
was caused by a lack of water va
por. Had temperatures fallen to
10 degrees this morning, frost
would have been formed.
A rising barometer today indi-
Gated that winds would continue
tonight and temperatures be Slight
ly lower than today. Fluctuating
temperatures again are predicted
due to the low dew point. 1t will
register colder in sections protected
from the wind.

NAz| FACTION
MOVE BEATEN
Effort To Dissolve Prussian
Diet Fails Despite Threat To
Lynch Socialist Leader.

BERLIN, Feb. a. UP)-A motion
by Nazi deputies in the Prussian
state diet for dissolution of the diet
was defeated today by a vote of
214 to 1876.
The motion was made after Hit
lerites had threatened to lynch
Carl Severing, former strong man
of the Socialist Prussian govern
ment, who still is minister of inte-
rior with curtailed powers.
The threats followed accusations
by Wilhelm Kube, leader of the
Nazi faction in the diet, of cor
ruption in the former Socialist gov
ernment. Kube specifically accused
Severing of having spent 1000, ,000
marks ($475 000) OF state money
from a fund to fight crime, on the
Socialist party election campaign
Severing, a small, lone figure in
the deserted Socialist section OF
the chamber, listened stoically as
kube shouted:
"You are no longer a political
subject, but a criminal subject for
us. We are going to arraign you
before the supreme court.
String him up" came the re-
spcnse from the galleries.
Kube hailed the Nazis in the
galleries, joined the vice-speaker
and the clerks, who then stood at
the Fascist salute.
Severing sat motionless without
answering.
Then Socialist deputies returned
to the chamber and Severing
mounted the rostrum amid Social
ist cheers, while the galleries cried
traitor, racketeer."
A surge of Hitlerites toward the
rostrum as if to seize Severing
caused the speaker to declare a
recess.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4,-The
mouse today overwelmingly refused
TO approve policy of further con-
gressional paycuts.
BY a vote of l72 to 81 it rejected
the Wilmington amendment to the
legislative appropriations bill which
would have reduced senatorial sal
aries to $500 annually.
Rep. Wilmington, Dem, Miss.
introduced the amendment.
Wilmington had intended TO Of
fer a similar amendment to the
section of the bill dealing with pay
OF representatives. However, the
failure to pass the first proposal
was accepted as meaning the quick
defeat of similar amendments.
representative j. r. Mitchell, De-
mocrat, Tennessee, author of the
pending anti-nepotism bill, said he
intended to offer his measure as
an amendment to the legislative
appropriation bill. He would forbid
any senator or congressman to en-
ploy a relative or the relative of
ano' her member.
Several previous attempts have
been made to deal with nepotism
but with no results A year ago a
move in this direction by Represen-
tative Mouser, Republican, Ohio,
was voted down two to one.
to avoid debate on the subject,
though finally the house without
debate voted to open the payrolls
to public inspection. Nepotism has
never been allowed to come up in
senate debate at ALL
The house appropriations sub
committee has moved to curtail
expensive congressional funerals.
1t recommends restricting funeral
delegations to four. The govern
ment paid for 60 roundtrip fares to
Cincinnati for the funeral of the
late Speaker Longworth, at a cost
of more than $4,000.
Caskets which have cost as much
as $500 are now being limited by
house authorities to $40O and flow
ers to $35.
House officials have revealed
that they are under heavy pressure
to allow relatives to travel at gov
ernment expense on funeral trains
of deceased members.
The house committee cut in half
the amount recommended for the
botanic garden which operates as
an adjunct of congress.
But out of the $113,725 still al
lowed for this congressional green
house, wives of senators and con-
gressmen will be able to get all
of the free cut flowers they wish
for their teas and bridge parties.
The department of agriculture
greenhouses furnish free roses, or
chids and other cut flowers for
wives of cabinet officials and for
White House functions. When the
daughter of defeated senator was
married just before his term ex-
pired, his apartment was decorated
by the botanic garden and potted
palms were banked from the ele-
vator to the apartment entrance in
profusion which transformed the
bare hall into the semblance OF a
tropical paradise.
