s~Violators of parking ordinances, rish or poor, influential or other wise, all from now on must pay $1 when their cars are tagged by po- lice. This decision was reached this morning at a special meeting of a group comprising Mayor Frank Hayes, Superintendent of Police Jo- seph H. Mclean, Prosecutors Charles Summa and Mitchell Mey- CTS, Judges Edward Mascolo and John McGrath, and City Court Court Clerks Irving Pasternak and Daniel J. Mahaney.

 Possibility that the robbery was engineered by Hand pirates' was seen in reports from Gloucester that two mysterious boats slipped out of that ports harbor shortly after the raid.
 While coast guards sought to identify these vessels, state ana municipal police throughout this section of New England joined in a widening search for two gray au- tomobiles in which the bandits fled toward Boston.
 With a strange flair of symmetry, the five robbers all wore gaberdine coats, white trousers, and sport shoes, and were hatless.
 All were described as youthful.
 The leader, armed both With a machine-gun and Q revolver, gave swift directions as his four com panions subdued the three clerks at gunpoint, bound them and covered their mouths with adhesive tape.
 The robbers, then emptied show cases of jewelry, selecting, with practiced hands, the choicest pieces and, before fleeing, removed every penny from the till.
 The robbers plundered the dis play windows as well as the show cases, stealing several extra valu- able pieces intended to catch the eye of the passerby.
 Charles A. Orcutt, manager and one of the three persons bound and gagged, estimated the total value of his stock at quarter million dollars. Itemization of the pieces stolen, he said, would have to be done through process of elimin- ation and would require consider able time.
 Never before in the store's 24 years history had it been the scene of robbery or attempted robbery. And not in the past 30 years had there been Q previous hold-up in this quiet seaside town.
 Reports of the robbery differed. Some witnesses insisted that all five gunmen came into the store. Others recalled that only three en- tered, two standing guard outside,

 Berlin, July 6 - (UP) - A na- tional financial and economic crisis. all but ignored in the bloody events of the last week, impelled the gov ernment today to name minister of economics, Kurt Schmitt, dictator of trade and industrial activities.
 Behind the decision of economic dictatorship were these considera- tions:
 Boycotts of German goods; slow ing up of industry after an initial spurt under Nazism; diminution of the gold reserve to the vanishing point; a financial situation so grave the government had to face the threat of trade wars by declaring a moratorium on its foreign debt ob- ligations.
 Schmitt's powers will extend to October 1. He is given blanket authority to "promulgate orders for the advancement of trade and industry, as well as for the pro- tection of industry against harm"
 He will have the privilege him. self of prescribing fines and impris- onment for violation of his orders.
 It was suggested that the first move of the dictator would be to find means of obtaining raw mater ials and of stimulating foreign trade.
 Schmitt's appointment was di- version from a confused and excit- ed political situation.
 Newspapers. which are all un- der close government control. at- tackled France as implicated in the alleged plot of the late General Kurt Won Schliecher and Ernest Roehm to overthrow the govern ment.
 The French embassy issued an indignant denial.
 Nazi political leaders adjourned their emergency convention at Flensburg, where behind doors guarded by SS bodyguards, they discussed the state and futures of the party and the government.
 A careful check of reliable sources disclosed no evidence of a resumption of anti-Jewish &C., tivities.
 There has been no serious ef- fort to connect Jews with the Roehm Revolt-an obvious move if anti-Jewish activity was planned.

pleasant cities in the world in which to be - busy, clean streets lined with attractive bright shops, well dressed healthy people, up- standing, bareheaded, tanned men; laughing, bare legged blonde girls.
 Cafe terraces are crowded with leisurely people slipping beer and watching the animated scenes con- tentedly. In famous Unter Den Linden with It's rouble line of trees, lovers sit in the evening. The famous Tiergarten, one of the fin- est city parks in the world, is crowded with brown, healthy chill dren and bands of sturdy boys in Hitler youth uniforms.
 It is only when you begin to dig beneath the surface that you find this city, and others, are in the grip of Q species of terrorism. It Is difficult to realize in these most civilized surroundings that scores, perhaps hundred, men whose names are widely known, | who held positions of wealth and denly snatched from their homes ohu dho bchCh oWdyt Ilo- | body knows where. Even the req son for their removal is unknown. Their wives and relatives usually are so terrified that they refuse even to confirm or deny to anyone except their closest friends that anything has happened. In trying to verify disappear ances and arrests correspondents almost invariably encounter un- reasoning fear. People refuse to talk on the tell ephone. They usually refuse to sec visitors except intimates. Everyone is careful what he talks about on the telephone. Many refuse to say anything but banalities. Among the many Germans who have foreign friends there has arisen a sudden fear to be seen too much in the company of foreigners. This is similar to what occurred in other countries where there are dictatorships.
 Even some foreign diplomatic representatives have asked inquir- CTS to call personally at their off, fees or homes rather than to tele- phone.
 Telephone inquiries to private individuals in other cities regard ing rumors of arrests and killings usually meet with the reply that no information whatever can be given.
 Sometimes it requires days to. verify finally disappearance or a death.
 These conditions are the result of the Nazis' lightning swoop and ruthless killings last weekend and uncertainty as to the future.
 It is illustrative of the state of nerves that just now when an au. tomobile back-fired in Unter Den Linden scores of people walking up and down the streets whirled and glanced around uneasily.
 The Nazi regime seems now to have reached the definite stage which always has appeared in sim liar dictatorships - the terror stage.

Gibson is grooming a strong,
dangerous club which packs more
punch than any other outfit in the
circuit. This punch, combined
| with the lively ball, may turn the
| trick and give Pittsburgh its first
pennant since 1927.
Were the Pirates better bal
| anced, they would appear certain
winners. However, because of a
| weak spot at second base and no
promise of championship itching,
| it is doubtful if they can pound
past the even-keeled Cardinals.
Hence, the Buccaneers seem des-
tined to wind up in the same sec
| ond-place berth they occupied for
| the past two seasons.
In addition, the morale of the
club may be affected by general
dressing room gossip which has
Pie Traynor replacing Gibson as
manager next season if the Pirates
fail.
Heavy Hitters
Spotty pitching was the chief
cause for the Pirates failure to
come through last season. 1t was
by far the best hitting club in the
league. Even though the Waner
boys slumped, the club wound up
with a batting average of 1856,
nine points above the Cards.
Attempting to strengthen the
mound staff, Gibson made what
may prove a shrewd move during
the off-season. He parted with his
best hitter, Second Baseman Tony
Piet, to acquire Pitcher Red Lucas
from Cincinnati. The exchange Of
Outfielders Generosity and Roet-
tiger also figured in the deal. Glib
son figured he had sufficient
strength at the plate to part with
a 1928 hitter for a mound work.
horse who could win 16 out of
SO fifth a tail-end club like the
Reds of 1888. Moreover, Lucas is
an excellent pinch-hitter.
Other starting pitchers will be
Larry French, Heinie Meme Bill
Swift and probably Ralph Birk-
ofer. Other holdovers are Hal
Smith, Bill Harris, Waite Hoyt
and Leon Chagnon. Outstanding
rookie prospects are Lloyd john
son, a souhtpaw from the San
Francisco club, and Darrell Blan-
ton from St Joseph. Outside of
Lucas and French this staff looks
very Ordinary.
Help Wanted
With Piet gone from the infield,
Gibson hopes that the veteran
Tommy Thevenow, Floyd Young
or the promising Harry Lavagetto
from the Oakland club may hold
down second base creditably.
Thevenow seems to have first call.
The rest of the infield will be the
same, with Pie Traynor on third,
Floyd Vaughan at short, and Gus
Suhr at first.
The club is fortified with one of
the strongest outfields in the ma
jors: Freddie Lindstrom in left,
Lloyd Waner in center and Paul
Waner in right. Freddie hit $40
last season. Handicapped by ILL
ness, Lloyd Waner slumped to .276
and Brother Paul also fell off to
800. The Waners are expected to
come through in fine style this
season. Wally Reottger from the
Reds and Forest Jensen are utility,
men.
Catcher Earl Grace is capable
receiver, and he hit 1888 last sea-
son. He will be assisted by Hal
Finney and either Tom Padden or
a newcomer from the Oakland
club, Art Veltman, advertised as a
heavy hitter.

Change For The Worse
DOME Bush decided to make the
costly coast player a second base
man. After a time he changed his
mind and decided that Bill really
was q third baseman, but he was
fooled again, for Cissell played
third no better than Ping Bodie
could have, which would have
been pretty bad If Ping ever had
been given the chance.
Cissell didn't have the arm a
third baseman, who has to throw
hard across the diamond, is sup
posed to possess, so when he
turned up at Cleveland after a
trade, Roger Peckinpaugh held a
little election all by himself and
announced that Cissell was a
natural second baseman.
For a while Peck seemed
right, as Cissell went about his
chores at second in a workman
like manner during the season of
1882. But last year it was dis
covered by the--Cleveland man
agement that it probably all had
been a mistake about Cissell at
second. He would be a much bet
ter player at short.
Further, it was decided that
Cissell would be a much better
shortstop for the Boston Red Sox
that he ever could be at Cleve-
land, so Bill was hustled away to
Boston.
Shortstop After All
The other day, as sat with
Bucky Harris on the bench at Sar-
asota, where the Red Sox have
been training. the subject drifted
to Cissell, who was playing short
in a game between yannigans and
regulars.
AS we talked, a batter slashed
one over second base. Cissell
dashed smartly to his left,
scooped the ball, wheeled and
threw the first with as pretty q mo-
ton as an infie1der ever displayed.
"Just as I was telling you," said
Harris, "he's a shortstop."
Well, now maybe he is short
stop, after all.

SPEECH ON RADIO
Is BLAMED FOR
DIAMOND FEUD
"Dizzy" Deans Remarks
Got Under Hide of Cub
Pitching Staff
BY FRED BAILEY
Omitted Press staff Correspondent

Chicago (UP)-To the natural
baseball rivalry between st. Louis
and Chicago National League
clubs has been added "feud" be-
tween Guy Bush of the Cubs and
Dizzy" Dean ofthe Cardinals.
For years Bush has been one of
the hardest pitchers in the league
forthe Cardinals to beat. Dean
usually has been "poison" to the
Cubs. Interest to the rivalry will
beaded this year by reason of
the fact both clubs are expected
to be pennant contenders.
Radio Speech To Blame
The Dean VS.. Bush feud dates
bac kto a radio speech which Bush
claims to have heard Dean make
last summer. Dean was quoted
as saying the Cubs were yellow"
and he hoped to face Bush the
next day and that if he did the
game was Gin the bag" for the
Cards.
Bush reported the speech to his
teammates the next day. He
asked Manager Charlie Grimm to
send hinp in against Dean. He
tainted the great Dean" about
the radio speech, and the Cubs
chased Dean to the showers in
the third inning with an ava
lanche of six runs.
On the final day Of the season
the same two pitchers were pitted
against each other in st. Louis.
Bush again reminded his mates
of the Dean "insults," and the re-
suit was that the Cubs aided Bush
to his twentieth victory Of the sea-
son.
Joy In Victory
II hope Grimm will let me pitch
for the Cubs every time the Car
dinals send Dean to the mound
against US this season." Bush said
recently. "I get more satisfaction
out Of beating that guy once than
do winning from anyone else
twice."
Bush has been with the Cubs
since 1924. Last season was one
of his best. He attributes his i'm
provement to a study of the pitch
ing style of Carl Hubbell, left
handed star of the New York
Giants.
IT noted that Hubbell has pill
able hand with long fingers, just
like mine. saw the ball do crazy
dips, and right then decided to
learn to throw the screw ball.
That was in 1880. For two years
1 practiced, never using the deliv-
cry in a game.
Brooklyn Team Laboratory
'"Then late in 1882 had a to
1 lead in the late inning with
Sukeforth, the Brooklyn catcher,
at bat. I decided it was time to
experiment. I threw him three
screw balls and he missed every
one of thin by inchs. I knew Il
was ready, and from then on the
screw ball became a part of my
pitching equipment"
Paradoxical as it may seem, the
lanky Mississippian is more effec-
tive against teaAs with southpaw
batting strength Manager Bill
Terry of the Giants famed in an
important game last summer on
three pitches.
"I don't see how any club ever
beats you," Terry said.

handlers do" Bush replied.

CiSseI At Short

CisseI At Short
When the re-bankrolled Red
Sox take the field for their first
game of the season the young man
at short will be Bill Cissel, and an
interesting experiment with
high-priced piece of ivory will
enter another phase.
Cissell, who came up from the
Pacific coast seven years ago with
a $125,0O0 price tag appended to
his person, has been regarded diff
ferently by the various managers
under whom he has worked.
Lena Blackburne,, who had
charge of the Comiskey exhibits
when Cissell was added to the
collection, took it for granted
that Bill was shortstop and
played him at that position dur
ing his regime, though Cissell
turned out some very poor short
stopping.
