BLACKS FORCE.
BLOCKADE

Army war game developments
today show that an enemy" fleet
could within two days blockade
New York unless opposed by an
adequate American Navy.
Large forces of troops could be
landed on the coasts of Delaware
and New Jersey and advance Is
miles inland, the latest chapter
of the games revealed.
Two days after having been
sighted off the Atlantic coast the
Black" enemy forces invested At
lantic City and Point Norris, N. j.,
and continued inland.
An enemy" aircraft carrier,
submarines and other WarShips, as
we'll as three troop ships, are the
oretically stationed off New York
harbor as a blockading unit.
American forces theoretically
are being rushed into the danger
zone and attempts are being made
to bring up the nonexistent gen.
eral headquarters air staff of
1000 planes, which is supposed to
be based on the West Coast.
The games" are being held to
determine the ability of the Army
high command to defend the At.
lantic Coast win available forces
and without the aid of the Navy.

The high council Of the Salvation
Army, meeting here in secret ses-
sion to elect a new general split
definitely into two oppoSing g
groups today.
After II hours discussion, both
sides refused to bulge an inch.
One group believes the new gen.
eral should have free hand,
while the other insists that his or
her attitude on all outstanding
problems should be made clear be-
fore the election.
An official communique issued
at the lunche on adjournment
said:
"There is no bitterness in the
disagreement which exists. Each
side is most friendly"
Insiders, however, insisted the
split was of a most acute nature.

NEW YORK, Aug. % G.N.S0.
of astounding sup
port" for the American Liberty
League were seen today by Jouett
Shouse, president of the newly
formed league, as the result OF
cash contributions and congratu'
latory kilograms received here.
The executive committee of the
league, formed with the avowed
aim to fight radicalism and sup
port Constitutional guarantees,
includes former Cows. Alfred E.
Smith and Nathan L. Miller, Of
New York; John w. Davis, for.
mer Democratic Presidential nom.
inee, former Senator James w.
WadsWorth, New York Republican.
Since groundwork for the league
was announced a week ago, Mr..
Shouse said, an avalanche" Of
kilograms, letters and pledges Of
support, including many contribu.
tions, has swept in upon the
leagues founders.
With regard to gains registered
by the league, however, he spoke
freely. He asserted:
"The response from all parts
Of the country to formation Of
the league has been astounding.
Thousands have sent pledges Of
support and asked for further
information. Many have sent
contributions voluntarily. The
contributions are mostly for 81
and $5, but some run up to $25
and $50. The preponderance Of
the small contributions shows
that greatest interest comes
from the mass of the people"
A meeting of the executive COM
mittee probably will be held in
New York or Washington next
week, Mr.. Shouse also plans a
radio broadcast next week to
explain the aims and purposes OF
the league"

Whatever the ultimate out
come, Mr.. Roosevelt did prevail
upon General johnson to take a
rest. He went to Bethany Beach,
DEL, with Mrs. Johnson for two
weeks.
Officials Back Richberg
It is an open secret in Washing
ton that most of the high-ranking
personnel of the NRA are support
ing Mr.. Richberg in this Squabble.
Just before leaving washington
for his enforced vacation, General
johnson is reported to have preci-
pitated a stormy scene at a meet
ing of the divisional heads of the
NRA. He told them sulphurously
that he expected loyalty" from
them, indicating personal loyalty.
Blackwell Smith, who succeeded
Mr.. Richberg as general counsel
of the NRA, is said to have arisen
and told General Johnson that his
resignation could be had for the
asking.
Leon Henderson, chief Of the
division for planning and re-
search, is reported to have fol-
lowed Mr.. Smiths offer with a
similar one.
General Johnson is said to have
smoothed over the situation by
expressing the hope that both
men would stay.
President Roosevelt Is under
stood to have offered the general
several other Administration
posts outside the NRA. But Gen
eral johnson is said to have re-
jected them on the ground that
his removal from NRA would be
construed as a demotion, not a
promotion, irrespective of the new
post.
