LOCAL LEADERS
 OF REPUBLICAN
 PARTY SCORED
Two Meetings Were Held Last Night - Attorney
 CrOcicchia for Senate

Criticism of the local republican leadership grew last night as the result of two g.o.p meetings, one held in Liberty hall and the other at Az Bank street. The Liberty hall session ocially launched the campaign of Attorney George J.. Crocicchia for the nomination of senator in the 18th district. The Bank street gathering was sponsor ed by the republican organization committee and was presided over by Adam Carran, president.
 Attorney Crocicchia officially an- noCnced his candidacy and laid down his platform. Other speak CTS included Attorney Frederick-W. Palomba who said that in the Con- way and Tracy campaigns the g.o.p. lost solely because of a lack of effective leadership and efficient or ganization. Attorney Palomba's s declaration was a bombshell and caused much comment. He praised Attorney Crocicchia. Gennaro PeI- osi and Attorney Pasquale De- Cicco also talked.
 At the reorganization commit tees meeting plans for a mass meeting were discussed but noth- ing definite was done pending the meeting of the g.o.p. state central committee this week at which the dates for the caucuses will be set. The committee aims to make-over the town committee and set a new chairman, if possible.

JAPAN PREMIER
 HAS CHALLENGED
Highly Armed Powers Must Make the First
 Move in Disarmament

Tokyo, July 31.-UP)-Premier Keisuke Okado today challenged highly armed" powers to take the first step in reduction of naval armaments.
 "The first move in genuine naval reduction must come from highly armed powers" he said. How ever, I do not expect such a radical change on their part as immediate ly agreeing to reduce their arma- ments to Japan's level" T can not favor the principle of the ex- isting naval ratio" the premier said. He spoke of the 5-5-3 ratio of naval construction for Great Britain, United States and Japan under present treaties. T hope some better system can be found that will enable nations to reduce satisfactorily. I am not prepared to say at this time whether or not Japan has found such q system.
 Japan has not decided whether or not the Washington treaty should be abrogated." The latter remark was interpreted as con- firming a report that the govern ment is studying an abrogation proposal. Okado made his state- thents in answer to questions of press correspondents.

TROOPS OF ITALY
 STILL AT BORDER
Legation at Berlin Warns Italy of
 Making Any Break

Rome, July S1-UP-Troops remained in camp on the Austrian frontier today, their right wing close to the Jugoslavian border, while Premier BenitC Mussolini watched the apparent improvement in the diplomatic situation. The Jugoslavian legation at Berlin in a statement undoubtedly aimed at Italy said events in Austria were purely of internal nature, and warned against possible dangerous consequences from any action by single nation.
 Any outside decision in the Aus trian problem, it added, rested with the league of nations. Jugos- lavia, the statement said, preserved a careful and correct attitude to Austrian events, effected close con trol of its frontier during the Nazi revolt and interned more than 700 Nazis who fled across the border. It was intimated here that the statement had no direct bearing on the situation as Italy planned no ac- ton. The Italian troops that are near Jugoslavia are those sent to the Austrian border when the Nazi revolt occurred.

MINNEAPOLIS IS

6,O0O Strikers Threaten Violence Unless All
 Trucking Is Halted

Minneapolis, July 31-(UP)- Leaders of 5000 striking truck drivers threatened today to defy troops now ruling the city under martial law-even to the extent of resuming violence unless all trucking is halted immediately for 4S hours. The ultimatum was deliv- cred directly to Gov Floyd B. Olson frankly a unlon partisan and ruler of the city under his own procla- nation of martial law. Olson re- fused to comment,
 In statement by William Brown, president of the drivers union. the men charged that their strike is being broken by military protection to approximately 65 per cent of the city's normal trucking business. Daily addition of new categories of transportation, Brown said. have deprived the strike ot effectiveness while solving none of the points at issue. Non-union driv- CTS are being used on many trucks operating under military permit and protection. Brown said that unless all permits were withdrawn for AS hours 5000 pickets would seek to halt truck movements by force.
 The ultimatum dropped into the midst of negotiations between fed eral mediators and 166 employers for an acceptable plan of strike settlement Observers who had hoped the 15 -day-old walkout would end within a few days today feared, instead. a resumption of the riots which in two months have caused four deaths and injury of hundreds,

BRITISH FRONT
 ALONG RHINE

London, July 31-(UP)-Acting Premier Minister Stanley Baldwin's frank declaration that Great Brit aims frontier now lies along the German Rhine, brought the coun- try to a realization today of the danger of new war. Political cor respondents of the newspapers call ed the declaration the most im- portant, in European affairs, since 1918. It wa emphasized generally that just 20 years after the war to end war" the acting primier and conservative leader seemed 10 think another war almost a cer- tainty.
 There was no effort to conceal the popular governmental view that the potential enemy of Great Britain, was Germany. It had long been known that the government plan to increase the air force to the size of that Sof the strongest power within striking distance was aimed at Germany, not France and Italy who alone of those within striking distance has substantial fighting fleets
 Baldwin's statement was made in a house of commons debate on the plan to increase the number of fighting planes from S44 to 1904.

ALFRED E. SMITH HAS RETURNED TO
 THE OLD WlCWAM
Received With Cheers By Members of ReOrgan-
 ized Tanlmany Hall

New York, July 31.-(UP)- Tammany Hall moved from the mourner's bench to a seat directly beneath the pulpit today. its re- form and regeneration having re- ceived the direct blessing of it's greatest son, Alfred E.. Smith. Smith ended his long estrangement from the mother of his political career last night by appearing at a Tammany rally. With him were Senator Robert F. Wagner and James Foley. who, like Smith and despite Tammany affiliations. have names that stand for integrity in public affairs.
 The three were increasingly aloof to the Hall during the regime of Mayor James J. Walker at City Hall and John F. Curry as leader of the wigwam.. Many believed they had been permanently estranged when the Seabury inves- tigation revealed widespread cor ruption in Tammany's administra- tion of the city government.
 Their return was occasion for the greatest rejoicing. All were cheered to the echo by hysterical district leaders politically starved since the Hall was cut off from city patronage. They had high hopes of federal patronage since Curry was forced out and James F. Dool- ing, approved by Postmaster Gen. eral James A. Farley, elected in his place, but a return of the great triumverate had not been expected
 Smiths face flushed deep red, and if he remembered his name was loudly booed at a Tammany meeting last winter, the ovation served to temper its bitterness The hall echoed and re-echoed.
 Smith spoke for the triumverate. His listeners believed his words carried special significance, al speech was in generalities.

HEPBURNS ARE

Katharine Denies RumOrs of Return to Husband
 She Divorced

Ivoryton, Conn, July 31.-(UP) Katharine Hepburn, stage and screen star, has no intention of be- coming reconciled with Ludlow Ogden Smith, whom she divorced in Mexico several months ago. friends intimated today.
 Smiths visit at the home of Miss Hepburn's parents at Fenwick. at the same time she was rehearsing for new play, circulated rumors of possible restoration of their former relationship. However. it was said today that Smith had been an, intimate friend of Richard Hepburn. a younger brother of the star and Harvard student. and was frequent visitor at the Hep burn home at West Hartford and Fenwick before his marriage.
 Smith attended several rehears-- als of Dark Victory" which will open at the Ivoryton summer thea ter August G.. Neither he nor Miss Hepburn were available for com ment. Smith left yesterday. pre- sumably for Philadelphia. Reports he had an interest in the writing and production of the play, the au- thorship of which has not been re- vealed, could not be substantiated,
