ROSENBERG'S STORY
HELD FAIRY TALE"
Chicago Tribune Says U. S. Off
cials Branded $500,000 Gift
Statement False.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
CHICAGO, March 15.-The Chicago
Tribune said today that Government
officials in Washington last December
branded as a fairy tale" the state
ment Of the late Moe Rosenberg that
he gave Chicago politicians $500000
in 1929 and 1880 for campaign pur-
poses.
The newspaper said his disclosure
was made yesterday by Federal in
vestigators, who revealed what the
Government had planned to prove
before Rosenberg's death last January
II. Their contention. the paper said.
was:
That Rosenberg did not make the
enormous sum he claimed through
contracts between his junk concern
and several public utility companies.
That Government audit of the
hooks of these companies disproved his
statement that he was able to buy
their junk at his own price because
of his influence in utility legislation.
THAT Rosenberg did not make the
huge contributions he claimed to poll
ticians and officeholders"
The newspaper quoted the Govern
ment investigators as saying that
Rosenberg's story constituted his de-
fense against tax evasion charge-a
defense prepared with the assistance
Of two lawyers-and that it was de-
tense made up in ex parte hearing, at
which the politicians charged with
acCeDting his money had no oppor-
tunity to face their accuser.

PREM|ERS EVOLVE
PLAN FOR AUSTRIA
See independence of Coun-

Program Mapped Out.
BY the Associated Press.

by the associated Press.
ROME, March 15-A concrete plan
for the economic independence OF
Austria was formulated today by Pre-
mier Mussolini of Italy, Chancellor
Dollfuss of Austria, and Premier
Goemboes of Hungary.
The three premierS also laid plans
for the improvement of the ecoromic
situation of the Danubian states. They
met in VeneZia Palace at 4 pm. with
their respective diplomatic representa-
tlves and commercial experts. Fulvio
Suvlch, undersecretary of foreign af-
fairs, met them at the door and con-
Quoted them to II Duce's huge Office
New Epoch Is Seen.
Circles close to the government said
it was logical to hope that the plans
being drafted would create a new era
in Southeast Europe. They reiter-
ated that these plans will serve as a
basis for an invitation to France. Ger
many and the little entente to par
ticipate in an economic agreement.
The invitation will not be extended
soon. 1t is said, but some time after
the agreement made by the three pre-
miers has begun to bear fruit.
In well-informed quarters it is ex-
planned that Italy realizes she is not
sufficiently strong-eve with the help
of Hungary-to make Austria indie
pendent of Germany commercially
and thus assure her political indie
pendence, too.
The cooperation of other powers is
believed necessary to accomplish this
end. The nations of the little entente
are Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and
Rumania.
1t is understood that II Duce is
making his Danubian plan the foun-
dation of the talks started with Gen.
Goemboes Tuesday and continued
with Dollfuss at the Venezia Palace
yesterday before all came together to-
day.
According to this plan. one of the
favors that would be asked these other
countries invited to participate is that
they relinquish their most favoredna-
ton treatment clauses with Austria.

Carrying House compromise pro-
posals on Government salaries and
war veterans allowances, the inde-
pendent offices bill today came back to
the Senate where leaders were to try
to determine during the afternoon
whether to ask that the entire bill
go direcly to conference or whether
to seek preliminary Senate action on
the changes voted by the House yes

On Government pay restoration, the
