CHICAGO, May 24-Resumption of
conferences between representatives of
Great Lakes dredge workers and their
employers here brought no solution to
wage dispute which is now more than
two months old.
Conferees parted after their first
meeting in two weeks and announced
they were no nearer agreement
Officials of the International Long
shoremenS Union declared employers
originally served notice that employees
take wage reduction of $3.50 a
month beginning June l. Union rep
resentatives, on the other hand, have
agreed to only $15-a-month cut.
j. j. Noonan, representing the long
shoremens union, said today employers
have agreed to demand only a S25 re-
duction, but this was not confirmed by
representatives Of the dredge owners
association.
Noonan said he expected conferences
would be resumed within week after
his associates had communicated with
affiliated organizations. He returned
yesterday from Washington, where he
conferred with congressional leaders in
an effort to secure legislation which
would fix a prevailing wage for dredge-
men.

Alfred, Texas attorney general, yester-
day condemned a policy Of the Federal
Government in issuing permits for the
sale of 80 per cent beer in this State,
which has a constitutional prohibition
against intoxicating liquors.
The Legislature has submitted to the

question OF whether the constitution
should be amended to permit the man
ufacture and sale of 80 per cent beer
as authorized by Congress.
Until and unless the people of Texas
amend their constitution and legisla-
ton recently enacted by the Texas Leg
islature takes effect, these so-called per-
mits will afford no immunity whatever
from prosecution under our laws" ALL

Prohibition agents last night raided
several establishments in San Antonio

seized. Operators said they had OBJ

BERLIN May 24-PreSident Won
federal cabinet. has just decreed that
the so-called "statthalters s"-meaning
the vice regents of the state governors
shall be entitled to use the seal of the
Reich.
This privilege, insignificant in itself,
symbolizes what Germans consider to
be one of the most outstanding achieve
ments of the nationalist revolution.
namely, the unification of Germany.
The accession Of Hitler to power
threw states rights into the dust bin.
Learned disquisitions on the division
of powers between the federal govern
ment and Germany's IT federated
states, over which the best minds of
the nation, including DR.. Hans Luther,
Ambassador to the United States,
wrangled for years, have become SO
much waste paper.
Under the impact of the Nazi revolu-
tion, Hitler was able to go much further
than the most sanguine had dared to
dream. Politically speaking, Prussia,
Bavaria and other once proud kingdoms
have ceased to lead an independent
existence.
Extent of Hitler Will.
One will-that of Hitle--now ex-
tends from Berlin to the farthest
corners OF the Reich No longer can
Prussia thwart the purpose of the fed
era1 government as it often did before
January 80, when Hitler came to power.
No longer can Bavaria threaten to re-
erect her throne unless the Reich re-
spects her special wishes. No longer
can the South German states plan to
Secede and form a separate nation south
of the River Main
Passports hitherto issued by the states
now can be obtained as Reich pass
ports only.
Hitler at the helm of the federal
government now appoints the "statt-
halters," term literally meaning
holders in his stead"
Each "statthalter" in turn noninates
the state premier, who appoints state
cabinet responsible not to the Parlia-
ment, but to the premier himself. If
the "statthalter" does not enforce Hit
ler's program in the state, he may be
removed by the chancellor. The state
Parliaments become rubber stamps.
Their principal purpose is to furnish a
forum for occasional dramatic appeals
to the populace.
Translated into American terms, one
must imagine President Roosevelt re-
moving all State Governors and other
important State officials, and then
appointing 48 vice regents solely re-
sponsible to himself, who in turn, with
out consulting the electorate or the
Legislature, would appoint Governors
with authority to pick their own CO.

Embargo on Foreign Goods
Plan Is 3O-HOur Bill SnQQ
Administration Facing Diff
cult Problem in Short
Week Issue.
BY RUTH FINNEY,
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April 8.-The adj
ministration is facing a difficult
problem in the inSistence of or
ganized labor and numerous mem
bers of congress that the thirty
hour week bill include an embargo
against all foreign goods made in
plants where the short week is not
likewise in effect.
This provision would have the
same effect as a high tariff wall or
general embargo, although the
Democratic platform declares in ia
vor of restoring foreign trade.
The house labor committee al
ready has reported a thirty hour
week bill containing the embargo
clause, by a unanimous vote.
If the house should pass the bill
in that form, the house and senate
measures would go to conference,
and senate conferees would have
difficulty in standing out against
the foreign embargo provision, in
view of the 41-to-37 vote by which
the senate defeated it.
The house will not vote on the
short work week at all unless Presi-
dent Roosevelt decides that it
should, Speaker Rainey has made
clear
The administrations decision
probably will be announced Tuesday
when a cabinet member will appear
before the house labor committee to
discuss the measure.

I introduced a measure for a

Such a program should, believe
be of heroic proportions 1t should
relate to such works as will give q

I'VE should go sclow on public

I'VE should stress such things as

Such works as these are needed
will add to our permanent wealth
will spread buying power broadly

SPEED RELIEF
HaIf-BiIIion Measure Is
Apparently Marooned
in House.

BIZ SCripps- Horgrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON. April 8. - The
President will have to swing his big
stick to get his f-billion-dollar
relief bill through the house, accord
ing to present indications.
The senate passed the bill March
30 In the ten days since the house
has marked time with unimportant
legislation, general debate, and six
days of recess.
The Democratic leadership there
sidetracked the senateS relief bill
into committee when Republican
Leader Bertrand H. Smell declared
such a measure should have
originated in the house, and the bill
still is there
A duplicate bill. introduced by
Representative Lewis Dem, Md.
which, meanwhile might, have been
passed free of all technical OBJ
jectionS, was referred to the bank
ing and currency committee, whose
hostility to relief bills has been
marked in the past. The committee
headed by Representative B.
Steagall Dem, Ala, has not even
been called to consider the measure.
The house judiciary committee,
which is considering the point of
order raised against the Wagner
Costigan-La Toilette bill, has had
the matter under consideration
since April 5.
The banking and currency COM
mittee takes the position that it can
not act on the separate house bill
until the judiciary committee has
reached a decision on the senate
bill.

asserts Brigadier- General S. T. An
sell, resigned, in an answer filed in
court here to the motion of Sen
ator Huey F. Long Dem, La to
dismiss AnsellS suit against him
for alleged SANDER.
Long claims a member of con-

privilege of immunity extended to
him by the Constitution.
Ansell has filed two suits for
$1000,000 in damage claims for al
legel libel, GROWN govt of a speech
made by Long in the senate.
Ansell cites the citizens right to
forego his constitutional right Of

himself of immunity.
