Nazis Speed
w ar Moves on
Hitler Return
Strive To M OBJ liz e
Anti-SOviet War
Alliances

BERLIN, June 17-Hitler's return
to Germany from his visit to Mus
solini yesterday was marked by in
tensified war maneuvers, particu-
larry the dispatching of Hitler's per-
sonal representative, Joachim Won
Ribbentrop, to France to perfect the
anti-Soviet alliance. Ribbentrop's
visit to Paris is intended to
strengthen the aims of Hitlef's
Italian conversations along the line
of offering France concessions for
joining the front actively prepar-
ing for war against the U.S.S.R.
No official communique has been
issued by the Nazi government on
the results of the Venic conferences
between the two fascist dictators.
The Nazi press publishes the joint
statement issued by DR.. Fulvio
Suvich, under-secretary for Foreign
Affairs of Italy, stating:
Premier MusSolini and Chancel-
lor Hitler reviewed their respective
countries policies on disarmament,
which are already known. They
found substantial identity of views
exists between them"
Against Soviet Peace Plan
However. it was made clear that
as result of the Hitler ussolini
conversations an attempt is being
made to counter the Soviet peace
proposals at Geneva which exposed
and hindered the Nazi war plans
by a new imperialist alliance
against the U.S.SR.
To gain the ends of German fas-
cism, Hitler agreed not to fight
against the Mussolini policy in Aus
tria, and to abandon temporarily
the Anschluss, the merging of Aus
tria and Germany under Nazi rule.
In return for this concession, Mus
solini agreed to support the Nazis
plans for complete re-armament
with the open support of the League
of Nations, attempting to rebuild
the League around an anti-Soviet
war alliance.
1t was also decided between Hit
Ter and Mussolini to revive the pur-
pose of the Four-Power Pact (em-
braclng Britain, Germany, France
and italy as an alliance against
the Soviet Union, which formerly
was disrupted on the rock Of
French-German antagonism.

fornia's apricot strike is on in full
force.
Growers say only $50 men are
out, but the strikers claim to be
1000 strong, and certainly more
than $50 have struck on the big
Garvin orchard alone.
The situation is growing very
strained, and there may be at any
time another attempt at deporta-
ton or other forms of violence.
Delegates from the longshoremen's

Com mittee of Tens
Actions Laid Basis
for Green
By CARL REEVE
Especial to the Daily Worker)

PITTSBURGH, June II. =
The general steel strike de-
manded by the steel workers
has been betrayed and tenn
porarily beheaded by William
Green, president of the A. F.
of L., the international of
f1cials of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton of Iron, Steel and Tin Work
erS headed by Mike Tighe and by
the Committee of Ten. The A. A.
Convention Friday night voted to
accept Green's program of calling
the strike off and petitioning Roose-
welt to set up an impartial" board
of three and give this board full
and final powers of arbitration. The
Green proposal adopted with small
minority voting against calls for
Roosevelt's board to have full
powers to call and supervise the
elections to determine the represen-
tatives of the steel workers. 1t thus
brings in the company unions.
The responsibility for the fact
that the Convention, rushing to a
climax, jumped on the Tighe- Green
band wagon with little short of a
stampede, rests squarely on the
shoulders Of the now defunct Com
mittee of Ten elected at the April
A. A. Convention. This Committee
of Ten and the district A. A. lead
ers surrounding it, is now indis-
tinguishable from the Tighe ma
chine.
The Committee of Ten and the
district leaders supporting it obvi-
ouSly held the power in it's hands
in this convention. Tighe was not
in control except by the grace of
these so-called leaders. This fact
was generally known the moment
the convention opened. But the
Committee of Ten betrayed the
workers back home in the lodges
and the unorganized steel workers
who looked to them for the strike
call.
The Committee of Ten made no
sort of fight in the present conven-
ton against Tighe's leadership or
Green's proposals. They took the
lead in putting through the propo-
sails of Green. They voted for the
Green proposal of a Roosevelt arbi-

received $1,O62, 800, while Mary
land waterworks have received
$4,000.
The largest single project, in
volving a PWA expenditure of
100000, is in Lynchburg, Va.
Maryland's largest project is at

used for improving the water
supply system.
With PWA aid 947 waterworks

IS MILLIONS
THIS FALL
By International News Service

BY International News Service
The Government faces the
necessity of caring for 10000
needy people during the coming
winter, with the Administration
pledged to meet the task.
Despite hope for an upward
swing in employment, officials ad'
nit there is little prospect of a
decline in relief needs. Dearth
of public charity funds may
even increase the burden upon
the Federal and local govern
mentS.
Drought Aid Increasing
Relief rolls now are estimated
at 3,835,000 families and 525, 900
single persons. Expenditures are
$120,OOO,O0O a month, with an
additional $2O,OOO,OOO for drought
victims.
Expenditures for drought aid
will reach their peak during the
winter. In many formerly pros
porous farming communities, the
Federal Government must pro-
vide food. Families on relief in
the drought area are estimated
at from 100000 to 100000.
In addition $4,000 youths are
being cared for in CCC camps,
where they clear forests, prevent
soil erosion and do similar work.
Plans have been made to open
up $50 winter camps, with pros
pect that enrolment will con
tinue at the present level.
Food Costs to Rise
An increase in food prices, held
to be inevitable as result OF
drought and corp reduction, will
increase relief costs. The Federal
Emergency Relief Administration,
by canning beef and mutton, ex'
poets to cut its costs. Secretary
of Agriculture Wallace has esti'
mated general increase of six
to eight per cent in food costs.
with the Administration planning
to halt profiteering chiefly by
publicity.
Relief costs vary greatly, rang,
ing from $43.64 a family in New
York city during winter months
to $2292 in the smaller cities OF
the States. In Kentucky the
winter average is $14.41 in the
larger cities and falls as low as
1925 a month in country towns
May Revive CWA
Despite the huge governmental
deficit, the Administration expects
to provide ample funds for relief
Present funds may be exhausted
by the time Congress meets in
January. An additional appro'
priation is certain.
Officials are considering a re-
vival of the Civil Works Admins
tration under which at least
100000 people would be given
work instead of direct relief.

RESORT To ACT
On SEAWALL

CHESAPEAKE BEACH, Md.
Aug. ga town meeting of all
property owners has been called
for next Sunday morning to de-
termine what course of action
shall be followed to insure con-
struction of a seaWall here.
Mayor Wesley Stinnett issued
the call for the meeting.
The question will be voted as to
whether to apply for PWA loan
or for the town to float a bond
issue to pay for the wall.
It is pointed out that the need
for such a wall is vital as con-
siderable damage has been done at
the resort town each winter by
storms.
A survey was recently made
showing that construction of a
SeaWall is practicable.

THE GANGsTER.s FATE

This has been bad year for gang
aterss especially those who at various
times have been tagged as Public Enemy
No. l. Death at the hands of officers Of
the law, legal executions and suicide have
greatly depleted the ranks of gangland's
big shots.
The latest to meet his fate was Baby
Face Nelson. shot to death in gun bat
tie IN which two brave Federal officers
also lost their lives. A partial list of
gangsters who have been removed from
the earthly scene since the beginning of
the year includes these desperate GRIM
inals:
John Dillinger, Jack Klutas, Pretty
Boy" Floyd, Herbert Youngblood (Negrol.
Eugene Green. Tommy Carroll. Howard
Van Meter. Charles Makely. Clyde Bar
row, Nelson, and others were shot to death
BY Officers Of the law. Verne Sankey and
Willie Sharkey committed suicide in pri-
son. Harry Pierpont was electrocuted.

gangs went to the penitentiary. Many
lesser criminals met similar fates.
If the thousands of other criminals
now at large could be brought to realize
that crime doesn't pay, and death or I'M
prisonment are It's only rewards. greater
progress ia the suppression of crime might
result
unfo1 anately. it seems that as soon
as one ganaster is put out of the way
another springs up to take his place.

RELIGION PAGES THE BOARDWALK

Persons who have been so sure that
the churches are losing their grip would
have had the pleasure of changing their
minds if they had been at Atlantic City
during the recent General Convention of
the Protestant Episcopal church. Adrian
W Phillips in his accounts of events and
hotel news as seen from his lookout at
ehalfonte Haddon Hall furnished some
very interesting sidelights of the church
convention.
There was record attendance of men
and women. The resort has taken on a
summer aspect, crowds throng the board
walk between the sessions to window shop
and visit the interesting exhibits Of national
advertising he wrote. and he related
that one Of the principal national indus
try's devoted an entire window on the
boardwalk to display of Holy Bibles.
Haddon Hall erected special Chapel for
the House of Bishops during their stay at
the hotel.
From all accounts Atlantic City is
leading all the old time resorts in the coun-
try in popularity and it IS most interesting
TO note the progress Of religion at the re-
cent gathering

MANY VOLATORS OFUQUORLAWS
 AWAIT RULING
Supreme Court Has Test Cases Before It-Deci-
 sion Is Important

Washington, Jan. 17 - (UP) - The fate of 13,000 prohibition law violators hung in the balance today as the supreme court heard argu- ments on test case which will de- eide whether repeal of the 18th amendment means anything to them or not. They compose the vast army whose roster is to be found on the unfinished cases pending in the crowded federal court dockets of the country. They were arrested or indicted under the Volstead act before repeal and have not yet come to trial.
 Courts from all parts of the country have tried to decide their case. One judge in North Carolina ruled on Dec. 6, that the Volstead act was dead and the federal courts had no power to hear cases under it. He held that Byrum Gibson and Claude Chambers, charged with dry law conspiracy, were free men, thereby furnishing the test case. Three federal courts have ruled in accordance with the North Carolina jurist. Three others have ruled the alleged violators may still be prosecuted. That leaves the score 4 to in favor of the boot legger.
 Though the case is of pure academic interest to the govern ment, debate of the once vital issue has attracted to the courtroom many who are or were connected with the prohibition cause.
