HOPKINS-DAVEY
 FIGHT STILL ON

Columbus, O., March 19-UP)- Charging that federal relief ad- ministrator Harry l.. Hopkins was responsible for any relief malad- minstration in Ohio, Gov Martin l.. Davey pressed his fight for com plete vindication. The house meets today to approve resolution cre- ating a joint legislative committee to investigate every phase of the Ohio relief situation. The resolu- tion was approved by the senate last night after a joint legislative session heard Davey's shipited de- fense of the relief organization un- der his administration.
 The senate rejected a resolution authorizing a grand jury investiga- tion of Hopkins charges against the democratic governor by Att torney- c eneral John w. Bricker, a republican. It was introduced by Senator Paul Ginkher, republican. A similar resolution introduced in the house was laid over under the rules. A proposal that the legis- lative committee be non-partisan also was rejected. Davey climaxed an active day of battling Hopkins during which he swore out a war rant charging the administration with criminal libel, by an impas- stoned address to the two houses. meeting in joint session at his re- unest.

League Must Act On Both
 ltalyAnd GerrnanyAtOnce

few weeks. If the German situa- ton is considered, it Is believed the United States will be invited to send an observer because it Is a member of the disarmament con- ference and it's separate treaty with Germany embodies the Versailles treaty military clauses. Today's appeal was not a surprise. The concentration of Italian and Abys- sinian troops on the East African frontier has been watched with growing alarm here.
 Abyssinia's three-page note to the league followed a telegram re- ceived Sunday which the league secretariat suppressed as vague" This telegram announced Abys- sinia's intention to ask council in- tervention. League action was asked on the ground that Italy was sending troops to its colonies Eritrea and Somaliland and had not responded to Abyssinfa's offers to submit their disputes to arbitra- ton.
 The situation for the league was a most delicate one because force- full Benito Mussolini indicated in January that he would brook no interference. It was then that league leaders made urgent efforts to head off Abyssinia's appeal for intervention. Today's appeal was the second ora.

Since Jimmy was abducted in 1915, the Mahfoods have had eight other children. but the father. a dry-goods merchant, never gave up the search for his first-born.

RICHBERC MAKES APPEAL TO REAL
 PROCRESSIVES
Should Stand Together Against Forum Shouters
 and Old Guard

Washington, March 19.-(UP)--- Donald R. Richberg, recovery CO., ordinator sat in to-day as a fourth in the turbulent Coughlin-J ohnson- Long ''battle of the air waves. He appealed for "calm, dispassionate examination of facts" rather than the ''shouting, raging and coar+e vituperation of passionate politics" in a national radio forum address Richberg's address was the firs, direct administration move to par- ticipate in the debate of Father Charles E. Coughlin, General Hueh s. Johnson and Sen Huey P. Long He quoted Gen Johnson and re. ferred to him as a popular hu- morist" who has a characteristics disregard for personal responsihil- ity and truth" He made no direct mention of Sen Long and Father Coughlin.
 The grave danger of the present time, Richberg said, lies in the faii- ure of the progressive leaders Of business, of agriculture and ot politics to stand together in a CVIntuOu OppOSitiOH tO tHe OIu guard, who by doing nothing eA- cept obstruct progress, would wreck recovery, and to the de- stroyers who by fomenting class conflicts would drive us into civil war;"
 If the voters and the fathers and mothers of this nation really knew the facts and the dangers confronting them, they would make their demands heard In one great shouting that would drive the sen. sible, progressive leadership of thus nation into common action against those who are playing upon tte prejudices of either the fortunate rich or the unfortunate poo,," Richberg said.
 This is time most suitable frr the rise of the well-meaning fana- tic, the upscrnpulous demagogue, the professiona exhorter, the Utopian promiser and the political charlatan.''
 He urged practical planning and sensible discussion of a progressive program and asked lis pubic opinion to be. formed more and more by unreasoning emotion ar shall we see revival of the rule of reason.

 Geneva, March 19.-UP)- Abyssinia today appealed to the league of nations to intervene in its frontier dispute with Italy. The appeal necessitates an extraordi- nary meeting of the league council which could also consider the Ger man rearmament crisis if neces- sary. Every effort had been made to keep the dispute out of the leagues Jurisdiction. It was fear ed that Italy Would defy any league action which 1t did not favor, just as it is feared today that if the German crisis reaches the league Germany will defy 1t.
 Abyssinia's appeal was made de- spite efforts by the league and in- dividual nations to effect direct set- clement by friendly negotiation. The appeal was made under Arti- cle XIV of the league covenant pro- viding for reference by any mem- Der of dispute likely to lead to a rupture" Under the article, the council must be called in emer- gency session.

PUBLISHER SAYS WAR MIGHT COME
 AT ANY MOMENT
Frank E. Gannet Talked With European Leaders
 on Present Crisis

Miami Beach, Fla. March 19-- (U.P.)-Frank E. Gannett, news paper publisher. who recently con- ferred confidentially with leader. of various European governments said to-day that "war might come at any moment as a result of re- cent developments" "It is plain as day that the situation in Europe has become most critical" Gannet said. "The final crisis may be de- ferred. but ultimately resort to arms and fight to the finish may be the only solution of this per- picking situation.
 Here is Hitler tearing up the Versailles treaty and re-arming. He is a dictator in unrestricted command. He and his lieutenants have been preaching that the most glorious thing in life is to die on the battlefields. He has built up a big war machine, more powerful than the allies have appreciated. It is true that Germany signed the treaty at the point of gun. It is true that the other nations of Eu- rope have not disarmed as they were expected to do. France. Great Britain, Italy and Russia have been watching with alarm Hitler's program.
 Should they mass their armed strength and march into Berlin, take command of the government, unseat Hitler and by force ask Germany behave and forever keep her suppressed? "Or should they put an armed band around Ger many and by cutting Ter off from all outside supplies and communi- cations thus bring her to terms? "Or should they call Germany into conference, and agree on some ac- ceptable plan for disarming."
 Gannett said one of the premiers in Europe in discussing this Ger man problem asked: "If you have a wild beast in a cage, is it better to keep him there, or would you let him out of the cage and then try to put him back?" "The United States is intensely interested in this situation. Don't forget that if war comes in Europe, 1t will he most difficult for us to keep out of 1t, no matter how much We may try to do so."

 The reports to-day, however, were that the plane crashed in the Belgian Congo.
 The four-day search, ending in death, recalled the similar fate of another French governor general, Paquier, who was killed in the de- struction of giant air liner.

 LIKE MANCHUKUO

The mer- chants complained that many Man chukuan products were competing seriously in domestic and foreign markets with Japan's own manu- lecturers. Economists were as- signed to study how far Japan logically can encourage Manchu- kuan enterprises without endap- gering certain lines of Japanese business.
 Meanwhile in the diet another group of Japanese queried foreign Minister Koki Hirota on the pos- sibility of extending preferential tariff rates to Manchukuo to en- courage industry there. Hirota re- piled that special rates cannot be granted Manchukuo because other nations then would claim similar reductions under that favored na- tion clauses of trade treaties.

RUSSIA ISSUES WARNING TO ALL
 ITS FASCISTS
Will Blow Them Off Face of the Earth If They
 Attack
By JOSEPH H. BAIRD


 Moscow, March 19-A warning that if the soviet union is at tackled, the workers will "blow the earth" was made today in lead ing editorial in Pravda, chief or- gan of the communist party.
 The editorial did not refer spe- officially to the present diplomatic crisis caused by Germany's re- armament.
 It contained an oratorical appeal for national patriotism and was re- plete with phrases of damnation for capitalists, fascists and the bourgeoisie in general.
 No official comment was forth coming today on the British note to Berlin but informed observers found reason to believe that Soviet circles consider the note an im- portant success for the Germans and complete equalization on Brit aims part.
 Stimulates Patriotism
 The Pravda editorial, entitled 'iSoviet Patriotism was striking example of the trend of govern ment and communist party propa- gando in the last year to stimulate national patriotism towards Russia as nation, as well as loyalty to the interests of the international proletariat.
 Some of it's passages equalled in intensity and fervor the most im- passioned patriotic oratorical flights. For example:
 Never anywhere did the hero ism of struggle for ones country rise to such heights as here. All the enchanting history of the revolu-

 IN HOLLYWOOD

Hollywood, Calf, March 19- .(UP)-Alice Faye, motion picture actress and blues singer whose name was linked with Rudy Val- lees during the crooner's divorce controversy, was back in Holly wood today ready to start work in a new motion picture.
 ' The blonde actress made no bones about discussing her com panionship with Rudy while she was in New York.
 While was in New York saw all the best shows" she said, and I didn't, go alone. Rudy and I are the very best of friends"
 And that in the face of the crooner's recent announcement that he no longer cared for Miss Faye started the film colony's busy tongues wagging even harder.
