the martial law placards posted every.
where in November, not only homi-

ever, to produce one death sentences

existence. The new basic law pro.
claimed that power to rule comes from
God and not from the people.
Enthusiasm Lacking.
Dollfuss, although lonized in some
foreign countries as strong man
and respected and even admired BY
some of his bitterest enemies at home
failed signally as a chancellor tc
arouse enthusiasm among the great
masses of his people.
Millions of AuStrians turned a deaf
ear to his plea that they show theil
patriotism by wearing in their coat
lapels the red-white-red ribbons of hi:
party "the Fatherland front"
The NaziS and the Socialists, Off
cially suppressed, continued not only
to express their dissatisfaction with
bombs, but also published secretly
circulated newspapers and issued
communiqueS.
The hundreds of bombings amount
ed to little more than demonstrations
of ability to strike almost when and
where the opposition chose. Few per-
sons were injured, although it would
appear that those who could destroy
railroad tracks and even leave bombs
in the vice chancellory could kill II
they wished.
Threats of death penalties always
were followed by more bombings.
Cabinet Rearranged.
The cabinet was rearranged from
time to time in what appeared to be
moves of Dollfuss to strengthen his
position and to bring closer together
those upon whose support he de-
pended.
The threats were alternated with
pleas for peace and during the last
two weeks terroriStS were given op-
portunit1eS to turn in their explosives
and thereby avoid punishment.
DoLfuss in announcing one of his
drives against terroriStS stated that
IS per cent of the population can
make enough noise to give a false
impression of strength"
The country is at least 80 per cent
Nazi, said prominent friend of the
chancellor the next day.
Yet hatred for Dollfuss personally
seemed to be scarce article in Aus
tria. Even the Socialists, after they
were suppressed in their civil war and
nine Of their leaders were hanged, had
somewhat sympathetic attitude to-
ward the little man.
Julius DeutSch, Socialist refugee
after the civil war, in a book on the
outbreak represented Dollfuss as unfit
and as a puppet of Italian Fascism,
accusing the Nazis of being similarly
supported by the Germans.

DR.. B0WERMAN URGES
LIBRARY ENLARGEMENT
Librarian Says Central Building
Should Be Twice Its
Present Size.

Enlargement of the central Public
Library Building to twice its present
size is necessary, despite the pro-
posed construction of the new George
town branch, DR.. George F. Bower
man, librarian, declared today.
DR.. Bowerman said library readers
have increased from $4,000 to 10000
since 1929, while the number of books
in circulation has increased in that
period from SCI 900 to 2,630000.
The Star inadvertently misquoted
DR.. Bowerman yesterday. representing
him as saying a new central building
was needed and that there were only
$4,000 library readers in 1929.

MANY ASK TO RIDE
WITH ROOSEVELT
SeIf-Invited Guests Would
Fill Mile-Long Train on
Return Trip.

A train more than . mile long
would be necessary to accommodate
all the people who want to accom-
pany President Roosevelt for a part
or all of his journey back TO Wash
ington when he lands on the Pacific
Coast next month.
For weeks the White House has
been flooded with letters and tele-
grams from prominent Democrats,
others calling themselves prominent
Democrats. and various State and To-
cal officials and representative citi-
zens. asking permission to join the
presidential party
Secretaries Marvin H Mcintyre and
Stephen T. Early are kept busy an
swering these communications and at
the same time trying to give polite"
turndowns.
There will be numerous delegations
go aboard the Presidents special train
at its scheduled stops en- route. and In
number of instances some of these
local celebrities and political leaders
probably will ride on the train through
their States.
Secretaries Surprised.
The presidential secretaries. discuss
ing the matter today said that they
realized Mr. Roosevelts widespread
popularity, but they had no idea OF
the number of people who believe
there would be room enough for them
on a trip of this kind.
Most Presidents, even those with
nothing resembling the popularity OF
President Roosevelt, have experienced
this sort Of thing. Whenever a presi-
Dental trip of any extent has been
scheduled there was always a rush OF
requests from the local authorities and
politicians seeking permission to board
the train.
Another problem to be worked out
is the number of local citizens who
will comprise the reception commit
tees at the various places the presi-
Dental train is scheduled to stop on
the journey to Washington from Port
land, Greg, where the President lands
on August g. Still more delicate is
the problem Of deciding Just who is
to ride in the automobile with the
President when he leaves his train at
the scheduled stops.
Seven Days for Trip.
In order to make a number OF side
trips to inspect some OF the national
parks and projects, the President has
allowed himself seven days to make
the journey. Although he has only
made arrangements for one major
address on the trip, at an anniversary
celebration at Green Bay, Wis. Au-
gust 8. together with brief radio ad-
dress at Glacier Park on August G
and another at Rochester, Mimi. Au-

Recent reports from Germany in
dicate that Hitler may take longer
holiday than heretofore. Surrounded
by officers OF the Reichswehr, he is
said to be planning a drastic change
in the policies of Germany.
The ruthless house cleaning he has
Just performed was not prompted only
by the idea of safety for myself
first" but was the result OF con-
sidered discussions with his hackers
outside the Nazi movement. Among
the men he consulted were leading
financiers. Junkers and naturally the
German general staff,
Urged End of Antagonism.
All these men pointed out to him
that even Germany could not go on
forever antagoniZing the whole world
by prosecuting the Jews. the Cath
olics, and the bankers, and sooner or
later not only the back of Hitlerism
would be broken, but also that Of the
Fatherland.
Hitler pds somewhat AFRAID Of
his own followers. He did not
knoD hoiD his P,000, 900 broDn-
shirts mould react, IL the most
popular leaders lDere wtped out.
Gen. ron Blomberg assured him
that the attitude OF these men iDdS
really immdterill since the Reichs-
iDehT could handle them Without
any trouble. Based on that dssur-
ance Hitler decided to strike hard.
Now that the first act of the drama
is over, Hitler is preparing his plans
to change those policies which have
most antagonized people in Europe
and America. 1t will take some time
before the fruits of the new policies
will be noticeable, but nevertheless he
is said to be preparing them.
Minister'S Report Cited.
OF course the economic and finan-
cial situation in Germany is extreme
ly serious. A few years ago the State
Department received a report from
the American minister in Vienna in
which the general situation was de-
scribed as follows The situation in
Europe Is serious but not desperate,
the situation in Austria is desperate
but not serious" The situation in
Germany can be described now as
desperate and serious.
Yet Germany is in a peculiar
position The other countries of
the lOortld, especially Great Britain
and the United States, cannot
afford to let the Reich 90 under.
The investments of these two
countries in Germany are too i'm
portant to allow the governments and
the bankers to look to Germany s
demise without considering the SER
ious reaction on the investors and ex-
porters in both these countries. The
powers behind the throne in Berlin
think that If Hitler changed his atti-
tude all the Nazi horrors will be for
gotten within the next IL months, as
MuSsolini's ruthleSsneSs is forgotten
now, and Germany will be helped out
again.
Hell Hitler" Going Out.
All the Germans are requested to
end their correspondence with Hell
Hitler" instead of the former Nit
Hochachtung. Recently a German
firm sent letter to Holland and
ended it with the usual He'll Hitler.
The Dutch correspondent replied and
added at the end of the letter The
Queen of Holland sends you her best
regards"
AS a matter of fact the Hell
Hitler is going out of fashion now.
When two German people meet the
greeting is What, are you still alive?"

By Missouri Master of

(Un1ted Press SIAN C0rrespOn0eht)
New York, Feb 24-(UP)-
Johnny Layton, a stocky, fiorid
Missourian with cnrley red hair.
to-day held ris 11th world three
cushion billiard championship, an
other gold medal and about $2,500
prize money, largely because Of
stubborn confidence In his own
diamond" system Of play.
Playing with the cool precision
and mathematical accuracy of d
evil engineer, Layton wrested the
title from 81 year old Welker
Cochran of San Francisco, SO to
23 in AZ innings.
Cochran never had q chance. He
was unnerved by Layton's profess
sor-like calculations and by the
perfection Of his safety play--by
the almost unfathomable leaves"
Slick Work
The new champion, using the
diamond or angle system OF play
which he formulated in 1910, In
the face of general scoring, took
command In the first inning with
a cluster Of four. He was never
threatened.
Cochran fdgeted in his chair. He
smoked one cigaret after another.
1t was the last regulation match
of the 12-man tourney which
stretched over 10 days, the most
closely contested championship in
history. They were tied for first
place with eight victories and two
defeats when the match started.
Cochran's defeat dropped him into
a tie for second place with Allen
Hall, of Chicago.
Hall and Cochran will play off
the tie for second place money to-
day. Willie Hoppe of New York,
and Jay Bozeman Of California
will play off their fourth place
deadlock.
First place drew $500 pri9o
money and Is per cent of the tour
ney's net gate which gave Layton
about $1,000 more. Second prize
gets $1,100 and IA per cent Of the
