BARON SET TO MEET KAISER
Ex Press Agent Has
Peaceful View;
Is a Catholic

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE new
Baron Wilhelm Theobold Frary-
Won Blomberg is ready to sail to
meet the former German Kaiser,
whom he can now call cousin.
Before November the new
baron was merely William T.
Frary, 26, a Boston press agent.
The Baroness Adeheid Maria
Won Blomberg, II, met him at a
tea in behalf of Negro charities,
liked him and adopted him despite
her relatives efforts to have a
guardian appointed for her.
The young man is a pacifist,
but as baron he becomes the fifth
cousin not only of the Kaiser but
also of Werner Won Blomberg, the
present commander-in-chief of the
German armies.
Approves of Hitler
The young man is himself Sec
retary of the World Fellowship of
Faiths, an organization intended
to counteract precisely the type
Of discrimination which Adolf Hit
Ter has shown in the case of the
Jews.
The baron said today:
81 approve of Hitler, for
believe that he is the savior of
his country and that it was alb.
sOlutely necessary for him to do
most of the things he has done,
but I heartily disapprove of his
attitude toward the Jews"
The Baroness, whom he now
thinks of as his mother, is an
Episcopalian, but he is a Roman
Catholic.

COUNT|ANS ASK
TAX XRATECUT

With assurances from Prince
Georges County governmental
units of a 10 per cent cut in their
expenditures, achieved through
emphasis on economy in govern
ment rather than lessening their
progra ans, Joseph Blandford,
president of the Taxpayers
League, today said he will push
the fight for a REDUCTION in the
tax rate.
State Senator L. G. Sasscer will
enter the fray by being guest
speaker at the annual meeting of
the league at the Mitchellville
School Saturday. He will talk on
taxation.
The league, largest organization
in the county actively interested
in taxation matters, is campaign
ing for a 81 rate, compared with
the $1.35 rate of two years ago.

BATTLE LOOMS
IN SENATE ON
vETERANA|D
By international News Service


A legislative battle over reStor-
ing eighty million dollars in an
nual benefits to disabled veterans
Of the World War and their de-
pendents loomed today in the Sen
ate as Republicans sought Demo.
cratic support for liberalizing the
National Economy Act.
Congress appeared ready to au-
thorize more liberal treatment of
the veterans if President Roosevelt
gives his approval or acquiescence.
His direct opposition, however,
likely will kill the movement, al,
though its proponents have hopes
Of victory even in the face Of presi-
Dental disapproval.
Reeds Program
The program, as proposed by
Senator Reed (R) of Pennsylva,
mia, a World War major Of artil,
Iery, was:
I. Restoring to the service-con-
nected rolls all disabled veterans
who were on the rolls prior to
passage Of the economy act.
2. Restoring the old disability
allowances for veterans actually
disabled in line of duty.
3. disqualification for all vet
Grams, not dishOnorabIy dis
charged, who are unable to pay
for their own treatment.
4. Enactment of SIS monthly
compensation for all widows and
orphans of veterans.
Early Vote Assured
Reed offered it as an amend.
ment to the independent offices
appropriation bill, thus insuring
an early vote in the Senate. The
Senate Appropriations Committee
meanwhile began consideration ot
the measure. 1t probably will be
reported to the Senate by the end
Of this week.
The Reed plan was drafted orig
1nally by the American Legion.

French Broad Air
Survey Is Being
Made For IVA
Largest Project of Its Kind
in History Of Aerial
Photography

Headquarters for the aerial sur
vey of the French Broad river
sector, the largest survey of its
kind ever made in the world, have
been established at the Asheville-
Hendersonville airport at Fletch-
err, and the work is being done
under the direction of the U. S.
Geological survey and the Ten
nessee Valley Authority.
Henry w. Dotzenroth is the en-
pineer and John M. Noble the pi-
lot for the Aero Service Corp, OF
Philadelphia, which has the con-
tract for doing the work in the
French Broad valley.
The survey is made with the aid
of aerial photography. The pic
lures are made at an altitude of
$4,000 feet above sea level, which
is about $4,000 feet above the
land area surveyed in the valley.
Pictures are made while the plane
flies north and south.
Pictures have been made of g.
400 square miles of the French
Broad valley and adjacent terri
tory and there remains about T.
600 square miles to be photo
graphed. Each picture covers an
area of about 70 square miles, or
an area of about 10 by 8 miles
square. The pictures are taken
one mile apart but so that they
overlap, and line maps are made
from the pictures. Practically all
of the territory is photographed
six times.
Pictures are made only on a
perfectly clear day, since clouds
below the plane show on the pic
lures. The plane stays in the air
about four hours at time. The
engineer and pilot are wearing
fur-lined suits in the work as the
temperature is about 25 to 80 de-
grees above zero at that altitude.
1t was explained that, although
C. A. Book, chief engineer for the
IVA has declared that the dam
at Bent Creek is not feasible ut
this time, the government plans
to make complete maps of the
complete area in the Tennessee
Valley area for future reference.
Maps of this area are scarce and
maps made before the Civil war
are being used to block out flying
lanes, it was said, .c....-..

Strike Breakers
Are Under Siege

KOHLER, Wis, July IS. (UP)
Strikebreakers were besieged be-
hind barricades last night within
the Kohler Manufacturing COM

About 1900 pickets blockaded
the only factory in this "indus-

Authorities used tear gas bombs
to prevent strikers from dumping

Strikebreakers were taken into

by former Gov. Walter j. Kohler,

LANCER ACTS
AFTER COURT
|RULESHIM OUT
! Expected To Be Acquit-
ted in Impeachment in
Conspiracy Case
CIVIL LAW
As TRIAL NEARING

BISMARCK, N. D., July IS
rP)-North Dakota was placed
hinder complete martial law today
= Governor William H. LANCER,
rho recently was convicted of a
ossral felony and is facing the
|enitentiary.
less than three hours after the
uureme court ruled him disquai-
Ii to hold office by this convic-
Eor, the governor suspended civil
n and turned the state over to
600 national guardsmen.
The PROCLAMATION preceded by
Is hours a special session of the
pgislature called by LANCER IN
efance Of demands for impeacn-
hent.
The legislature will investigate
his official conduct but is expect
ed to acquit the governor.
The supreme court of North
Dakota ruled last night that Gov
ernOr LANCER must give up his
office TO Lieut.-Gov. Ole Olson.
The ruling was an outgrowth of
Langer's conviction in federal
court on charges of conspiracy.
LANCER and several co-defend-
ants were convicted in June. The
federal government charged that
the LANCER group forced federal
employees to contribute to a po-
litical fund. This fund, it was
aid, was collected supposedly for
a newspaper. The government
:ontended that the money even
tually went into the campaign
chest.
At the time of his conviction,
LANCER was a candidate for re-
for governor. His
sentence was postponed until aft
er the primary, in which he gain
ed what he termed "the highest
verdict" an overwhelming VIC
tory.
After the primary, LANCER was
Sentenced to serve IL months IN
khe Leavenworth penitentiary. He
said he would appeal.
Meanwhile, Lieut.-Gov. Olson
who had thrown his support to an
party in the primary
fled action demanding LangerS
removal.
LANCER, who has become ia
nous for his speedy and fighting
action, fought the Olson claim
which was carried quickly to the
highest state court and was the
one which resulted in Tuesday
-uling.
LANCER last week called a spe'
nal session of the state legisla'
.ure. This order was interpreted
as an invitation to "im,
peach me if you can" as it wa'
likely at that time that
when the legislature met the frs
order of business would be con
sideration of a bill to Gust thu
governor.

STOCK MUST BE SOLD
AT PRICE BELOW PAR

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July 18.
-(UP).-Arrangements for the
sale of Tennessee Public Service
company properties to the Ten
nessee Valley Authority were an
nounced yesterday, thereby avert
ing a threatened "test war"
against the governments ward

David Lilienthal, IVA power
director, announced that negotia-
tions which most Knoxville citi-
zens had given up as hopeless had
been completed successfully and
that the IVA would buy the TIPS
properties for $6,088,000.
The transfer will include the
private utility's distribution sys-
TENS here and in numerous near
by communities. The TIPS will re-
tain only its Knoxville street car
system and its power transmission
line from Waterville, N. c.. to
Kingsport, Tenn.
The IVA will begin actually
serving it's "yardstick" electricity
to Knoxville and other communi-
ties involved in the deal in about
month at rates which will cut
power bills by as much
as so per cent.
A ten per cent surcharge will
be added to the standard iva
rates until the distribution system
is paid for. =.
The transaction was announced
just as Knoxville city council be-
gan opening bids for contracts to
build a distribution system which
would duplicate the TIPS system.
The city had arranged to bor-
row $3,250,0O0 from the PWA TO
build a municipal distribution sys-
tenn to use IVA power. The city
was prepared to enter into active
competition with the private util-
ity unless the deal completed yes
terday went through. Observers
had foreseen "ruinous competi-

and u communities in East Ten
nessee, including Newport and
jefferson City, are served by cleo

STANDARDIZES
MARKET LOANS
Establishes Rules for Spec
1 ulative Security Mar
ket Accounts
MARGIN REQUIREMENT
RULE IS NOT SETTLED
by RICHARD L. GRIDLEY
United Press Staff Correspondent
downright, 1884, United Press)

Copyright, 1884, United Press)
WASHINGTON, July 1S. (UP)
Margin requirements of at least
As per cent for speculative secur-
ity market accounts will be SUBJ
scribed. by the Federal Reserve
board under the new securities
act which becomes effective in
most provisions October 1st, the
United Press learned today.
A final decision on margin re-
quirements has not yet been
made by the reserve board which
will regulate stock market credit.
but it was virtually the same as
contained in the security act.
The act set as STANDARD" for
loans on securities an amount not
greater than the higher Of
/. IS per cent of the market
price of the security, or,
2. 100 per cent of the lowest
market price of the security since
July 1, 1888, but not more than
rs per cent of the current market
price.
These may be changed upward
or downward at will by the Fed
eral Reserve board.
Official announcement of mar
gin requirements is expected
within a few weeks. They are eX-
pected to apply to new brokerage
accounts opened since July 1 and
to old accounts in which transac-
tions have been made since July
1. They will be effective October
1. Old non-active accounts and
old collateral loans will not gen.
orally be affected until July 1,
1887.
The new margin requirements
would be slightly higher than
present New York Stock Ex-
change requirements of 33 1-3
per cent for accounts of less than
$4,000 and 2 5per cent for ac-
counts above that figure. Most
exchange houses are now requir-
ing 10 point margin on bonds.
Brokers expressed no surprise
today at indications Of the boards
action. They doubted the ruling
would occasion any important
changes in speculative markets.
One large New York broker
said that 80 per cent of his mar
gin accounts now averaged at
least 45 per cent margin.
Federal Reserve board experts
have been studying speculative
markets for months with a view
toward adopting a satisfactory
policy and have been in |
constant communication with the
leading bankers.
These studies are believed to
have shown that adoption of the
requirement standard"
set in the securities act would
have least interference with Sc
curity market movements particu-
larly in view of the fact that Wall
Street has anticipated such mar
gin requirements.
