CUBA TRYING TO CELEBRATE ITS
 INDEPENDENCE

Havana. Oct, l0-(UP) All troops and policemen were kept in barracks ready for emergency to- day as the capital celebrated Cuba's Independence day. President Ramon Grau San Martin feared the possibility of serious trouble by opposition groups who might make the day the occasion for a new Independence outbreak.
 Col. Fulgencio Batista. chief of staff, began the formal observance of the day shortly'after midnight this morning with 0 ceremonious visit to the presidents at which the opportunity was taken to discuss means of dealing with any revolt. Batlsta and other visitors who fol. lowed pledged anew their alles' lance.
 Cuba's Independence day nor. mally Is q gala one. It dates not from the Spanish war but from oc- tober 10, 1868, when Carlos Man. uel De Cespedes, the Cuban George Washington and father of the res contly busted President Cespodes' startd a revolt that led to ten years of war between Spanish and rebel Cuban troops.

STOCK BROKERS FACING SERIOUS
 ACCUSATIONS
By LYLE c. WILSON

tOUlteO GFcsb Stuu NOTrtslDHuchD
 Washington, Oct 10--(UP)-- Senate stock market Investigators were to press Dillon, Read & Co today for an explanation of the manner in which millions of dol- lars entrusted by the investing pub- lie were poured into railroad secur- tiles now valued at only q few thousand.
 Ferdinand Pccora, committee counsel, has shown that the largest investments of the two investment trusts organized and controlled by Dillon, Read & Co, were in two railroad stocks.
 Tho United States and Intcrna- tional Securities corporation. ono of the investment trusts. bought $11,- 3SG,000 of Rock Island and Frisco securities. The stock now is worth approximately $194,000 at current market quotations.
 Pecora has shown that Dillon, Read & Co placed on the director ates of their two investment trusts men largely interested fin other en- terpriseS and in various securities. Matthew c. Brush, an investment trust director, was one of q half dozen persons summoned by the cOUlfnlttee nOTc tHdH ycdT dBO when 1t Sought to question some really large market operators. Brush appeared as one of the most successful and active srcculators in tho country.
 Charles Hayden. senior partner of Hayden, stone & Co. bankers of New York. was q director of a Di1- lon, Read investment trust, when large purchases of Rock Island stock were made. He also was chairman of the board of the Rock Island road.
 Frederick Ecker, president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co was an investment trust direc- tor and likewise a director of the Frisco railroad when its securities were being purchased.
 If individual holdings of railroad securities were unloaded on tho public through the medium of the investment trusts, Pecora hopes to establish the circumstance of the transaction. So far there has been no proof that such was the case.

 The U. s. agriculture depart ment report said: Most lines of domestic wools are rather quiet. Small quantities sell occasionally at firm prices, but no large trans- actions are being closed. A fair quantity of 64s and finer Ohio and similar fieeces has been sold this week.

They Are Still Trying to Get France and Ger.
 many to Agree

Geneva, Oct 10-(UP)-America and England took the joint lead to. day in an effort to remove a French German deadlock that threatened tho life of the world disarmament conference. Norman II. Davis, chief United States dele gate to tho conference, and Cap dain Anthony Eden, chief British
 delegate, decided at a long meet ing to coordinate British American policy and seek agreement between
 France and Germany. It was understood that Davis undertook to concentrate his efforts on pcrsuading Germany to aban- don her demand for stronger arr maments and that Eden agreed to
 negotiate with tho French. He will ask France to lessen the pen altics she seeks to impose on viola tors during test period of inter national armament control. The | delegates, as q whole, cmbarking on a series of private talks, faced | the task of changing the entire | European political situation in the
 next six days.
 Hopeful on the surface that they
 could eliminate the German French
 deadlock before the world disar-
 mament conference reconvenes

STEEL WORKERS RETURN TO JOBS IN W. VIRGINIA
One Thousand Go Back and Are Jeered By
 Bands of Strikers.

Weirton, w. Va, oct 1--(UP)- Satte troopers maintained order to- day when more than 1000 workers filed back to their jobs at the Weir ton Steel company. They were greeted by jeers and boos from strikers who refused the company's invitation to return to work. Picket lines were forcibly moved back from the mill entrances, and at one time Captain J. R. Brockus of the West Virginia state police resorted to the use of tear gas to prevent strikers from closing off the gates. No serious disorders were reported. however, as the big plants resumed operation with curtailed staff after two weeks shutdown.
 Approximately 1000 workers
 went back to their jobs at the con,- pany's subsidiary plant at Steuben- ville,. O., where strikers voted over" wheimingly last night to return to work. No disorder was reported at
 Steubenville, and picketing was dis continued.
 The main plant of the company here, where 11,000 men have been on strike, resumed operations with out formally recognizing the Anal. gamatcd Association of Iron, Stce! and Tin Workers.
 After taking poll of workers, officials of the company announced nil departments would reopen at & a, m. today. T. E. Millsop, com pany official, estimated "more than 1000" men returned to. work to- day. but union officials claimed the number was much smaller.

Washington, Oct. 10-The story behind the soft coal code IS one or soreiy overdeveloped industry. Called upon by the federal govern. !. ment to pay higher wages ana promised, In return, permission to eliminate disastrous competition through the government of their industry, the operators professed not to know how to do either with out dire consequences. The dcpres- sion in the coal fields Is more than 10 years old.
 During the war the government called for moro coal and the supply was astounding. Mines not needed under ordinary conditions were opened and they have stayed open. Competition from fuel oil and nat. ural gas made matters worse. Att tempts to secure federal regulatory laws failed, competition grew in-- tense, sales were made under cost and the most difficult feature has been the extreme diversity of in- terests, since coal is mined In 0 majority of the states.
 Tn all 20 different coal codes were filed with NRA, the first Q fortnight before the recovery act was signed by the president They were gradually merged In one.

 New York, Oct 10-(UP)-A drop of 114,704 tons to record low in thrilled orders of the United States Steel Corporation today un- settled the stock market.
 The unified tonnage report as or .September 30 was made public at noon. Up to that time the market had moved irregularly in narrow range, The drop in orders was greater than had been anticipated. Steel common eased off and trad- CTS sold moderately in other sec- tions of the list.
 Volume frightened, however. and there was no pressure in any par- ticular section. More disconcerting than the drop in steel orders late in the day was dip in commodi- ties. Wheat dropped l '1-S to 7-S cents a bushei, while other grains were little changed from the pre- yious close; cotton lost yesterdays gains: silver dipped 50 points; 1; rubber lost a few points. The dol lar ruled steady, while bonds were firm with the exception or u' D. government issues.
 There were several firm spots in the market. The feature group was the utility which made the pest performance in many weeks. Buy ing in this section was induced by an adverse vote against municipal operation, of utilities by the city of Birmingham, and defeat of q proposal to place a sales tax on utilities in Maine.

Tallahassee, Fla, oct 10 - GU. pD-Florida voted to-day on re- peal of the 18th amendment. Im- partial observers predicted she would be the 33rd state to repudi- ate national prohibition. If these predictions are proven, the repeal cause will be within three states of realization.

 Van Der Lubbe, the self-accuscd pyromaniac, answered "yes," mo- and "I don't know" to identical questions, and brought the judges to a point of evaporation and his fellow defendants to indignation.

 "Yes," said Van Der Lubbe.

Rock Island, which shows a loss of $11,000, ,000."
 Tracy said the investment trusts had put about $3,500,000 in the securities of corporations on seven of which he was Q director.
 The record showed that the in- vestment trust had suffered q $1,- 300, 900 loss on securities of cor porations of which Tracy was q director. Pecora said the liability exemption clause in the Investment corporation charter was absolutely shocking
 He read from the charter of the United states and foreign which specifically exempted its officers and directors from any liability in- cured by the trust in 0 transaction in which the officers or directors might be interested, also in the other corporation which was Q party to the transaction. The ex- emption said there should be no liability even if the interested di- rector voted in way adverse to the interests of the Trust Company. You approve of that sort of proviAon?" Pecora asked.
