OFFICIAL in KANSAS
FACES IMPEACHMENT
Legislature Votes to Press Action
Against Attorney General in
Bond Scandal.

TOPEKA, Kans., November "a P.-
Impeachment of Roland Boynton, State
attorney general, was voted last night,
s to /, by the House of Representatives
as an outgrowth of the Kansas million.
dollar forged bond scandal A commit
tee was appointed to draft formal ar
ticles to be presented to the Senate.
Resolutions urging impeachment OF
Boynton and Will J. French State
auditor, on charges of misdemeanor
were introduced by special committee
which investigated the bond scandal
There was no accusation, however, that
Boynton had any connection with the
forgeries, for which Ronald Finney,
young broker, and Tom Boyd. former
State treasurer, face both State and
come up later.
As outlined, the articles of impeach-
ment would fall generally into three
classes, as follows:
/. Ineflciency and unfaithfulness OF
Boynton to his trust as a member of
the School Fund Commission.
Q. \ His failure to perform his duty by
bringing proper civil and criminal pro-
ceedings when certain alleged irregu-
larities were called to his attention.
3. That by reason of his personal and
business relations with Finney, Boynton
would be unable properly to represent
the State in criminal and civil matters.

LOS ANGELES FIRE
CONTINUES TO RAGE
Crosses Into ThickIy-Popu-

Threatens Water Supply.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES. November "a
The disastrous brush fire in foothills
northwest of Los Angeles roared on to-
crossed the ridge into thickly populated
Earl Canyon and was headed toward
the Arroyo Seco, source of the Pasa-
dena municipal water supply.
The flames moved along a jagged
Smile front famed by treacherous
wind
Although the Rose Bowl is in the
Arroyo Seco it is several miles from
the fire front and no brush sur
rounds it.
Fire officials were hopeful of keeping
the flames confined to the limits of
the Angeles Crest Highway which skirts
the Arroyo Seco to the south and west:
Earl Canyon estates include those OF
Mae Marsh, actress, and Victor McLag-
len. actor.
The towns of La Crescenta, TIL Junga
and La Canada apparently were saved
when the wind veered.
A number of houses in TIL Junga
were destroyed when the flames ate
their way into the northern section OF
$ that city. Just how many homes and
cabins have been destroyed has not
been determined, but some estimates
by fire officials place the number
at $50.
A rigid ban against sightseers was
ordered.
Suffering from the effects of flame
and smoke, Capt. Ross Moore, Wesley
Trepp and Alfred Becker of the Pasa-
dena Fire Department were taken to
the Pasadena Hospital.
Approximately 1000 men were en-
gagged in fighting the fire. which had
swept through an area Is miles in

Before entering politics, M. Albert
had been newspaperman, professor,
a lawyer and an author.
Though he took his first academic de-
gree from Frances famous Higher Nor
NAL School, which has reared so many
statesmen of the left parties, he soon
forsook school teaching for journalism.
1t was in the capacity of city editor
that he served Georges Clemenceau
when Clemenceau was laundering
against the governments in power
M. Albert claimed for himself the
historic honor of having brought Glenn
enceau and Poincare, the latter then
President of the republic, together after
many an epic feud Whoever did that,
at any rate, paved the way for victory
for the allied cause
His claim however, was disputed by
Raymond Colrat. former Minister 'of
Justice under Poincare in 1922, who as
editor of the Opinion claimed to have
induced the President to give the war
time premiership to Clemenceau in the
dark days of late 1917. when but for

WHY THE NAZIS DISRUPTED THE
REICHSTAG CONTROL
COMMITTEE.

Two or three days ago the papers
reported that Nazi deputies had
broken up the session Of the Reichs-
tag Control Committee, the only
legislative body empowered to in
vestigate the cabinets actions, even
when the Reichstag is dissolved.
But they didn't print the reason
for this outbreak of Nazi violence in
the legislative halls. The real reason
was that the session had been called
at the demand of the Communist
Reichstag deputies to hear charges
of huge corruption in the financial
aid given the big agrarian estates in
Eastern Germany by the Reich gov
eminent
Unbelievable details Of vast sums
poured into the laps of the Junkers,
while unemployment relief was be-

Committee. That is why the Nazis
wouldn't let the committee meet.

NEGRO LAD
KILLED BY
Tenn. COPS
Leon Carlock Shot
Down After Vile
Frame-up
USE OLD ESCAPE" LIE
Prostitutes Attacked;
Didn't Know by Whom

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 27.
-Levon Carlock, 19-year-old
Negro youth, was wantonIy
shot to death by six Memphis
police officers here Saturday
morning. The excuse for this brutal
murder was an unfounded charge of
rape" on Ruby Morris, practising
prostitute, who did not even go
through the fornality of identifying
c. 'ock as her "assailant," an in
vestigation by the International La
Dor Defense reveals.
The Negfro and white workers of
Memphis are aroused to deep indig-
nation over this murder, which CHI
makes an unbridled reign of terror
against the Negro workers of Mem
phis, which the police department,
under the direction Of Cliff Davis,
police commissioner, has been carry
ing on.
The LID investigation shows that
Ruby Morris claimed she was "at-
tackled" early Friday morning. She
admitted that it was dark, and she
did not see her "assailant." But she
said Carlock's voice was like that of
her "assailant." witnesses have come
forward and protested that Carlock
was at home at the time of the sup
posed attack" and that they saw
him in his home at the time.
On this flimsy basis, six Memphis
policemen arrested Carlock at 8
o'clock Saturday morning while he
was waiting to escort his wife from
the place where she works as a maid
They took him into an alley, beat
and tortured him, then shot him.
They attempted to whitewash their
crime with the claim that he "had
tried to escape"
The LID. has taken steps here to
organize broad neighborhood COM
nittees, and has issued leaflets call
ing for the widest organized protest,
raising the demand for the removal,
arrests, open trial and death penalty
for the six policemen involved, and
for an end to the reign of terror
against Negroes, which is aimed at
crushing the resistance Of the Ne
gro masses to the worsening starva-
ton conditions. The demand is also
being raised for payment Of indem-
nifty to Mrs. Carlock. Protests can be
wired to Police Commissioner Cliff
Davis of Memphis and to Gov. Hill
McAlister at Nashville, Tenn.

COrdell Hull, ROOseveIt's Sec

StimSOn's note to the League
Of Nations attacking Japan,
with several secret conferences
yesterday with the French and
British ambassadors. Apart
from the meager announce
ment that the war debts were dis
cussed, the nature Of the negotiations
and discussions are carefully con-
cealed from the American people.
In line with its expressed policy of
a more aggressive foreign policy, dir
ected against the Japanese threat to
Wall Streets loot in China, the in
coming Roosevelt Administration is
frantically trying to effect an agree
ment with France and England or
the war debts. New concessions are
being offered these debtor nations
in the effort to effect their neutrality
in the far east situation. William

representative on the war debts ar.
rived hurriedly from Europe yester-
day to report to Roosevelt on the re-

Both the japanese and the U. S.

Britain Aids Japan.
The attempts Of the U. S. to use
the war debts to bludgeon Britain
into support of its drive against Jap
an is meeting with little success in
British imperialist circles which are
using the war situation for bargain
ing purposes at the same time secret
ly aiding Japan. The Japanese news
paper "Nichi Nichi" declared yester-
day that the British Government has
expressed approval of the Japanese
Manchukuo campaign in Jehol so
long as the disturbances do not
spread to North China"
The antagonisms and hypocrisieS
of the imperialist powers are further
emphasized in drive by the Brit
ish imperialists to use Japan's pre-
occupation in Jehol for a grab OF
Japans foreign trade in China, India
and other parts of the Far East.
The British Government ordered a
temporary embargo on arms ship
