of his expensive automobile in front OF
a motion picture theater in Cicero,
where he published the Cicero Tribune,
a weekly tabloid. and where he once
acted as bondsman for members of AL

Pedestrians scurried to cover as the
killers, riding in "a small automobile,
drew their machine alongside of
Cowen's and blazed away. Three times
bodyguard of the publisher. who was
about to enter Cowen's car. was slightly
injured by bullets. He took COwen to
a hospital, but physicians said he was

The salaries in these new agencies

These executives put their employees
on the pay roll at the same figure they
would have received in private industry.
1t did not take the administration long
to realize that these salaries, from top
to bottom, were higher than the Gov
eminent levels"
The scale will be effective at the
N. r. A. in the pay checks received
November !. Other groups are due to
fall in line as soon as an executive
order is promulgated.
Babcock also reported So favorable
replies had been received in the fedora

oppose such move, and a few are
non -committal.
Abolition of the pay cut and Of fur

COLD MAY FIGURE
IN RUSSIAN PACT
Credits Might Be Influenced
by Soviet Production of
Precious Metal.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Diplomatic circles, as much puzzled
as foreign exchanges by the Roosevelt
gold policy. are buzzing with speculation
over whether Russian gold will figure in
the forthcoming Roosevelt -Litvinof
conversations.
The Soviet gold production is re-
ported to be large, though the Moscow
government has not divulged the fig-
ures recently. The Lena River district,
where former President Hoover once
had holdings, and other Siberian fields
nave been modernized. They are be-
iieved to be producing far in excess of
the pre-War output.
Recent unofficial estimates place Rus.
sia's annual gold output at SAC. .OOo, 900
as compared with 1918 rate Of s26.-
level of around $50,000,00O.
Factors Emphasized.
These considerations, coupled with a
desire on both sides to expand Russo
American trade, are prompting the dip
lomatic discussions. Certain factors
are emphasized.
Russia Is reported ready to place or
ders in the United States for half a
billion dollars worth of commodities and
machinery If normal relations are estab-
hshed and credits arranged.
Payments can be made only in Rus
sian products. including geld and serv-
ice. Credits might be influenced by
exact Russian gold statistics
Manganese ore and wood products
have a ready market in the United
States, but domestic producers strongly
oppose their admission and have sought
complete embargoes, charging produc-
ton by forced labor.
Gold Influence Weighted.
Any trade relations will be Influenced
to greater or less degree by new
Roosevelt policy OF fixing prices on
newly mined American gold.
Consequently. the diplomats are say
ing, gold may intrude itself when Pres
ident Roosevelt and Maxim Litvinoff
the Russian commissar for foreign af-
fairs, sit down together.
Some representatives Of countries
which have clung to the gold standard
are inclined to regard the American
| dollar r-control step with satisfaction,
| They interpreted it as an indication
the United States plans a gradual re-
turn to the absolute gold standard.
One Ambassador said it was his
understanding that president Roose
| velt is determined that the United
States shall have sound money and

NEW HAF|A RIOTS
" CLAIM ONE LIFE
35 Others Are Wounded as
Arabs Protest Jewish
immigration.

By the Associated Press.
HAIFA, Palestine. october 28.-One
person was killed and IS wounded to-
day in two new clashes in this modern
lied port of Palestine between police
and Arabs who demonstrated against
Jewish immigration.
British troops and police were mobil-
lied at strategic points in all the prin-
cipal towns of Palestine following riots
yesterday in four cities in which up
wards of score were killed and many
wounded
Reinforcements were held in readi-
ness at Cairo, Egypt.
The ways Of the East, which few
Europeans ever understand, made 1t
difficult to determine how widespread d
and well organized the Arab movement
was. There were indications 1t hao
aroused sympathetic agitation beyond
Palestine in both Syria and Trans
jordania.
Directed Against Government.
Wild nomadic Bedouins were moving
into the popular centers as the Arabs
call to action travelled swiftly through
their own channels.
The Arab agitators. incensed at in
blame the British authorities and the
demonstrations are directed against the
government and not the Jews them
selves.
Battle lines were drawn between police
and the surging throngs Of Arabs in
the district around the railway station:
Taking drastic steps to avoid general
fighting, authorities proclaimed the Cur
few law to clear the streets.
Attempt to Rush Station.
The Arabs. however, attempted to
rush the station for the arrival of pris-
oners arrested at Jaf1a in connection
with yesterdays outbreaks In which at
least l3 were slain and many wounded.
The police arrived in time to prevent
to smash automobiles and taXiS.
The rioters already had blocked roads
and burned trucks in an attempt to
hinder authorities in transporting the
prisoners who nevertheless were de-
trained at Carmel Station.
Troops then were deployed over the
roofs of the railway station and the
Offices of military headquarters. Others
took the roads to quell the rioters there.
Trouble also threatened at Acre,
across Acre Bay from Haifa.
The Iraq Petroleum Co. here placed
several trucks at the disposal of the
government and they were manned with
troops.
Feeling Tense at Jaffa.
The Arab strike, which began on the
Moslem holiday yesterday, was carried
over into today's Jewish sabbath-with
all Arab shops closed.
The feeling was particularly tense at
Jaffa. where funerals were being held
for those slain yesterday.
Armored cars of Seaforth F1ighlanders
patrOlled Nablus, where one was killed
in yesterdays clashes.
Troops were called out to aid police
in Jerusalem, Nazareth Nablus and
Safed-the latter a model Jewish COM
munity north of Jerusalem.
In most other towns Arabs greatly
outnumber Jews. .-....-....
Arabs were reported growing restlve

tionS were feared there.
