CHURCH FIGHTS
BIRTH CONTROL

NEW YORK, Dec. 7 QN.SO.
The Italian government and the
Roman Catholic Church today
took Official recognition of re-
ported birth control practices OF
Italian-American women and al
legged gangster activities Of their
sons by sending the Rev. Father
Lorenzo M. SPIRAL as missionary
to them.
The priest, who is treasurer OF
the Order of st. Augustine, a
missionary and preaching order,
arrived on the italian liner Rex
and left Immediately for Phila-
delphia to begin series OF lee
lures and instructions. He said:
1--WE want to talk to the
younger Italians in America and
imbue them with the spirit Of
the new Italy and the teach
ings of their church.
1--WE have heard of birth con-
troll practices and the claim
that many of your gangsterS
in Americans are Italians. 1t
has been q cause of much worry
and concern not only to the
church but to Italy itself"

PEEK SLATED

To NRA
AAA Chief and Young Liberals
at Odds; HeWes May Quit
Treasury Post
By International News Service

While President Roosevelt
endeavored to restore harmony
among the divergent official
factions in the AAA today, Re-
covery Administrator Hugh S.
johnson announced that the
NRA probably will modify
some of the codes which have
been set up in the agriculture
administration.
The NRA has taken over the
code work of the AAA, following a
series of disagreements between
George N. Peek, AAA administra-
tor; Secretary of Agriculture WAL
lace and Acting Secretary Rexford
G.. Tugwell.
President Holds Farley
Both Wallace and Tugwe1l con-
ferred with the President at the
White House today, and Peek
later lunched with him.
Reports that Peek's resignation
was impending were denied. There
was a possibility he may be trans
ferred to the NRA, however, as ne
and johnson are friends of long
standing.
Resignation of Thomas Hewes,
Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury, also is reported as imminent.
Peek has been at odds with
officials of the AAA, including
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace,
Assistant Secretary TugWell and
Jerome Frank, general counsel.
He had long conference with
the President at the White House
last night, and it was later an
nounced that all AAA codes, with
the exception of those relating to
first professors on food products,
had been transferred to the NRA
under Gen. Hugh S. Johnson.
DissensiOn In Treasury
1t was denied that Peek had
offered to resign. However, when
Secretary Wallace was asked about
it, he said:
"There is nothing definite
about that"
Henry Morgenthau's drastic re-
organization of the Treasury has
provoked widespread resentment
and dissension among the per-
Sonnel.
Morgenthau's latest order, trans
ferring the Internal Revenue Blu
reau from supervision of Hewes,
and virtually taking charge of it
himself, may lead to Hewes'
resignation.
HeWes, as we'll as other Treas
ury officials in the higher places,
virtually have been deprived of
anything but routine duties. Most
of the key men have been re-
placed by appointees of Morgan
thau's own choosing.

Publication Of a story which
pointed out that his secretary,
Miss Frances Robinson, receives
Federal salary of $5,780 year,
or only 1920 less than his own,
aroused the ire of Recovery Ad-
ministrator Hugh S. Johnson
today.
Six months ago Miss Robinson
was a Stenographer in the Demo
cratic national committee.
johnson said:
"That's hitting below the belt.
Miss Robinson is personal as
sistant to the Administrator.
Everyone knows she is not
merely my stenographer or
secretary.
SET AT $4,000 YEARLY
"At the first meeting of the
National Industrial Advisory
Board Miss Robinson was ap-
pointed personal assistant to
the Administrator at a salary
Of $4,000 per year. Robert
Straus also was appointed per
SOnal assistant. Since assum.
ing her duties Miss Robinson
has assumed more and more
responsibility. In many ways
she knows more about this
national recovery act and the
NRA than anybody else.
"She came to me, not as a
StenOgrapher earning $25 a
week in her previous position,
but as an executive of the
RKO. During her service with

is in Palma. Whereabouts of the
fifth American, e. w. Blodgett,
could not Immediately be learned.
Under Spanish law, an assault
upon a member of the civil guard
is a serious offense. The civil
guard is protected by tradition
and code more fully than the
army in most countries.
The long imprisonment of the
defendants pending their trial,
during which time bail was re-
fused, resulted in the intercession
of American Ambassador Claude
G. Bowers as one of his first Off
cial acts in assuming his duties in
Madrid.
The case attracted much atten-
ton since the offense, in the eyes
of the Americans, was but a minor
one. The guard was struck at a
Palma hotel during the course of
an argument after a late party.

the Democratic national COM
mittee she was a volunteer
worker, receiving only ex-
penSeS."
Miss Robinson was present in
Johnson's office during the press
conference in which the subject
of her salary was brought up.
Raised Only $3.50
BY Johnson'S account, Miss
Robinson's salary has been in
creased only $3.50, but this sum
would be raised to 81 300 if the IS
per cent pay cut is restored to
Government workers, as her
salary, without the cut, is set at
$4,000 per year.
There are only three other in
dividuals in the NRA who re-
ceived $4,000 a year or more. They
are Johnson, whose salary is $6,-
900 per year; Donald Richberg,
whose salary is $4,000 a year, and
Boaz Long, deputy administrator
in charge of NRA for Puerto Rico.
Miss Robins accompanies
johnson on all his trips, usually
made by plane, and frequently
works long hours daily.
She has frequently ruffled the
feelings Of prominent individuals
by making them cool their heels
in Johnson's outer office. John
son has never been known to
reprimand her for these acts. She
talks straight out like johnson
and can use language as pic
tureSque as his own.

Bv International News Service

Harvey G. Couch, a director
of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, owes the Chase
National Bank $153,912 on a
joint loan, negotiated in Janu-
ary, 1880, it was revealed this
afternoon at the Senate bank
ing inquiry.
Charles S. Mccain, chairman of
the board of the CheNt bank, told
about it. He said the RFC direc-
tor and C. H. Moses, Arkansas at
torney, borrowed 1925, 900 from the
Chase bank in January, 1880, to
enable Couch to pay his obliga-
tions to Seaboard Air Line syn
dicate. He added that Couch was
q frequtnt borrower at the Chase
and that the peak" Of his per-
Sonal loans was $338,526..
Wisgin Preferred"
Couch also was revealed to have
made Albert H. Piggin, then head
of the Chase National Bank, a
"preftrred client" in a deal for
Southwestern Investors, Inc,
stock.
Couch gave Wiggin $4,000 shares
of the stock at submarket prices
in September, 1929, in the method
used so extensively by j. P. Nor
gan & Co. Tht stock deal was
executed just four months before
Couch made the 100000 loan at
the Chase bank. He had been a
borrower there "off and on" from
1918.
It was the second time Couch
has been revealed as borrower
from New ork bankers. The first
instance was a $500, 900 loan from
Dillon, Read & Co., in 1928 on
which he still owed $150,00O on
December 81, 1881.
Mccain characterized Couch's
action as an effort to establish
friendly contact" with Wiggin.

NRA WILL ACT
To END FORD
STRIKE
Senator Wagner Insists on
Real Collective Bargaining;
Awaits Data
By International News Service

The National Labor Board Is
preparing to take direct action
in the dispute between the
Ford Motor Company and
strikers at it's assembly plants
in Chester, Pa, and Edge
water, N. J.
"We are still very much in this
case," Senator Robert F. Wagner,
chairman of the board, said today,
He added:
Speaking generally, now the
time has just about come when
we must prove to employers that
section IA Of the National In
dustrial Recovery act means
something. Instead Of giving the
term collective bargaining q
form Of lip service, we are going
to insist that some bargaining,
be DONE"
Strikers Rap Ford
Strikers at the two assembly
plants have charged that the Ford
company does not bargain" with
them in any sense of the word.
They were permitted to present
their demands to the superintend,
ents of the plants, and then the
plant superintendents announced
that all further action was up to
the parent company in Dearborn
Since presenting their demands
workers have received what they
call "evasive" replies, and have
not been permitted to continue
open negotiations of any sort.
General Rule Avoided
Wagner said:
"All the reports are not in on
the Ford case. In any effort
to determine if employers are
really bargaining collectively
with workers every case will
have to be treated individually.
There is no way for us to
define collective bargaining in
any generally effective way We
must consider every case on its
merits.
"SectiOn IA of the recovery
act guarantees workers the right
really to bargain collectively
with their employers, and we
are going to see that they OBJ
tain that right in every case"

RUM ROW
FEARED At
DISTRICT
Three Towns Ask RitChie to
Prohibit Whisky Sales;
New Supply Ordered

No liquor licenses will be ID
sued in Prince Georges county
until next Monday, it was an
nOunced this afternoon by
Henry Morris, chairman of the
county liquor license cOmmis-
sion.
This action was taken because
of the large number of applica-
tiOnS for licenses close to the.
District Line, and fear on the
part of the commission Of
establishment of a rum row"
there to supply District residents.
Here is the local liquor situ-
alton today at a glance:
You can buy whisky, gin and
wine in Silver Spring and
Bethesda.
The Rockville dispensary will
probably open for business this
afternoon, as soon as a liquor
cargo arrives from Baltimore.
Prince Georges county dealers
have liquor, but no licenses have
been issued by the county board
of commissioners. They may be
issued today.
Licenses Fought
The city councils Of Mt. Rainier,
Hyattsville and Riverdale have
requested no licenses be issued
dealers in those communities.
Prince Georges county is in the
peculiar position of having plenty
of liquor, but no way of selling it,
the county liquor commission not
yet having passed on license ap-
plications.
The first carload Of beer
stronger than 80 will be received
at the Silver Spring dispenSary
tomorrow. 1t will be of approx
mately 4.3 voltage.
A truck of imported liquors
from New York. including Scotch,
brandy, champagne, rum, Char
treuse, port, sherry and gin,
will be in some time tonight.
A row broke out among the
three members of the board today
as three communities demanded
that no licenses be issued to ap-
plicantS from those places.
William Brooks, Republican,
and minority member of the
commission, stated that he be-
lieveS the temporary licenses
should be issued at this time, and
if complaints are to be made they
should be made at a hearing on
permanent licenses.
Unless Brooks convinceS the
other two members of the COM
mission that he is right, it will
mean that. Washingtonians will
have to look to Montgomery
county for their supply Of
drinkables.
Plans Frustrated

permits have locations in Mt.
