 He died at 3:50 a. fn.. without regaining consciousness. Twelve hours before G bullet shattered his skull at the right temple just after crack operatives of the Surctc Generate. the French Scotland Yard, burst in the door of the little mountain villa where he had been hiding in hope of escaping through the snow filled passes to Switzcr- land.

 Many trucks were dumped into the Chicago river. Others were burned or wrecked. Most of thost arrested were mcmb bers of the Milk Drivers Union, employed by major distributors who purchase from the 18,000 members of the Pure Milk Association.
 Violence occurred at many points outside the city. At Wal worth, Wis. 1000 plckets stormed the Walworth independent cream. cry. dumped 90,000 gallons of milk and damaged the plant. Officers oi the plant were warned not tc reopen it.
 Another group of irate farmers held two guards of the Lyons (Wis) milk company captive while they shot hundreds of holes through the milk vats. They then dumped on kerosene.
 Sharpshooting plckets engaged guards employed by members oi the Wisconsin milk pool near Elk horn in q brief skirmish, which ended when local officials of the pool agreed not to attempt to ship milk into Chicago during the strike.
 Two trains> on the S o o Line railroad were halted by 300 pick. cts north of Chicago. The farm. CTS waved flares to halt the en. gincers. The first contained only passenger coaches and after being searched was allowed to proceed.
 Tho second train had several baggage cars. The farmers broke open the doors and searched them .or Chicago-bound milk. The, found no fluid milk, but destroyed n large number of cases of con. densed milk.
 While .pickets outside Chicago were effectively drying up the sup. ply vandalism spread through city streets. Independent drivers whc attempted to deliver milk were Beaten and their trucks confiscat- cd.
 Windows of independent milk stations were smashed. Members Of tho MIX Drivers Union wers blamed by Independents for many acts of violence, but they were not linked with all the terrorism.

 Conflicts there are. but they are being ironed out rapidly. Oppo- nitlon there is, but 1t Is waning.
 Here and there you hear q bank - cr of the old school grunt dIsap- proval of what he terms govern mental interference. Instances have developed where large cm ploycrs of labor have sought to behave under the ancient laws of rugged individualism the only rules of businesa conduct they over learned.
 But they are beginning 10 sec the light. Their associates, their own trade organization, their Cham bers of Commerce, are teaching them that a new regime has stepped in and repealed the dog eat dog" philosophy of doing bus mess.
 Thousands Get Work
 Statistics tell the story of NRA's success in the Pacific coast states. Men put back to work, payrolls increasing, store sales ad- vnncing, bank debits gaining. arc facts which cannot be denied.
 Just how much of the improve fnent is due to MIRA, 1t is mpos- sibic to determine. but it is sig nificant that almost everyone cons cerned is willing to give the "Bluc Eagle" the credit.
 George Greet, dynamic chair man of tiIc National Labor Board on the coast, estimates tfiaG the MIRA bas put 1000, ,OOO
 aem and women back to work in this region.
 His figure is higher than some other estimates, and may be too optimistic, but Greet bases his data on reports from county com pliance boards all over his dig trict.
 E. Tildcn Mattox, district com pliance director of the MIRA here, said 100000 had been re-crn- pioyed under the codes fin Cali fornia, Nevada and Utah alone.
 Add Millions to Payroll
 Mattox declared payroIls in northern California and Nevada alone have jumped $l7,200.000 monthly over the figures of last summer. ..4.s.
 The same optimistic story comes from other leaders in the MIRA movement on the coast. Frank Messenger, district complI- anoe manager at Portland, said G2,000 persons have been given employment in Oregon. Furni- ture manufacturing, canning, lum- bering and retail business have been primarily affected,
 The MIRA compliance represent ative in Idaho reported that l0,- 600 jobIegs have found work in that state because of MIRA actlV- fly.
 Messenger described the build ing up of confidence through the NRA and the Civic Works Ad- ninlstration program as one Of the most healthy phages of tho entire situation.

NEW DEAL

FOGELSV1LLE, Pa, Sept. IS
G.N.SD.-In a blistering attack
on the New Deal as offering new
things that are not good, and
good things that are not new.
Senator David A. Reed (R0 of
Pennsylvania opened his cam
paign for reelection in this section
today by remarking he is begin
ming to think it is about time for
another Boston Tea Party"
He said:
Except that, instead of
throwing tea overheard as a
protest against tyrannical taxa
ton, we should throw the Tug
wells and the WalIaces over
board with AAA contracts and
a blue eagle aS a lifebelt.
1--WE can vote for our rights
or dictatorship which ignores
those rights. We can vote for
traditional American principles,
or we can vote to Russianize or
HitleriZe the United States. We
can be free men or we can be
slaves. We Pennsylvanians only
have one choice; to be Ameri-
cans first, and let those in
Washington know that our
liberties win not lightly be
lost"
Unless the country is headed
in the right direction, he warned,
things might get every much
worse, as they have in Germany" !"

HASTINGS RAPS
OWEN TRIP

The Moro Castle disaster in
vestigation should not end until
it probes into the circumstances
attending the detail of the Coast
Guard cutter Champlain to bring
Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, Amer
ican minister to Denmark. home
from Greenland" Senator Hast.
ings, of Delaware, chairman OF
the Republican senatorialcongres'
sional committee, declared in a
statement yesterday. He added:
''HOw many lives were need
lesSly sacrificed because the gem
of the Coast Guard fleet was
taken from its regular station
near the scene of the disaster
and sent on q needless junket
can never be known. Certainly
some who went to q watery
grave might have been saved
had the speedy Champlain been
at its regular station, instead
Of an older and far slower
vessel, calculated to have taken
an hour longer reaching the
Moro Castle.
"The explanation of Secretary
MOrgenthau that the Cham
plain was sent to Greenland on
an 'Oceanography' expedition
is ridiculous. What a price that
junket cost! Not so much in
dollars and cents as i'm human
lives needleSSIy sacrificed"
In a caustic reply, the Treasury
said:
"The theory that the Cham
plain would have been closer
and would have been able to do
more than the CahOOn, the
cutter which replaced her, rests
only upon the most remote
possibilities. 1t was mere chance
that the CahoOn was in the
vicinity"

FIRE
EXT|NGU|SHED

BALBOA, C. T., Sept. IS G.N.S)
After an all-night battle with fire
raging in the hold of the British
freighter Bradburn, firemen today
continued to flood the ship with
water, slowly succeeding in extin-
gushing the blaze.
The ships cargo of cotton was
a total loss, and the ship itself
was badly damaged.
AS the blaze continued to spread
despite the quantities of water
poured into her hold, the Brad
burn was towed from the Balboa
docks a considerable distance out
to sea and anchored.
The vessel arrived yesterday al
ter a speedy 500-mile dash back to
Balboa upon discovery of the fire.

LEAGUE ENT RY
BY j. 8. URGED

GENEVA, Sept. 15.-Hope that
President Roosevelt will bring the
United States into the League Of
Nations was expressed before the
League Assembly yesterday by Con
stantin Mayard, delegate from
Haiti. Mr.. Mayard said:
"On the advent to power of
President Roosevelt, who be-
lOnged to the presidential fam
lily of the Democratic President
Wilson, principal promoter of
the covenant of the League, we
felt sure that q new era of an
inter-American policy of good
will would be beginning.
ut will be remembered that
the Chief of the new washing
tom Administration, shortly be-
fore, had condemned the inter.
national isolation of his cOun-
try and had formally criticized
the Interpretation and exaggera-
tiOn of the Monroe Doctrine to
which the United States had
traditionally cOnformed its Con-
tinental policy"

Given the choice Of going to
school or seeing a circus parade,
what would YOU do?
Some 10000 school children
will be confronted with this deep
and absorbing problem Monday
the opening day of school and
the date that marks Washington'S
first circus parade in eight years.
Ballou Won't Worry
There isn't a chance in the
world that the children will have
their problem solved by any order
excusing them from school. Not
a chance, but DR.. Frank w. Bal
lou, superintendent of schools,
added:
"They can stay out of school
for the parade if they want to.
There's nothing we can do
about it.
"Of course, staying out Of
school involves an infractiOn of
the law, but we can't prosecute
until they are absent for three
days."
