BOSTON, July GA committee

his recent upside down stomach"
operations which the committee
criticized.
DR.. Truesdale recently retired as a

operation which attracted Nation
wide attention was performed on
Alyce Jane McHenry. II. of Omaha.
Later he operated on Jimmy" Neil
son, 13, of San deg. Calf. Both
operations were reported successful.
The committees report said: Pub
licity, which advertises the profess
sional doings and alleged attachments
of physicians in the lay press, on
the air and in the market place, con-
tinues to be a sore, annoying and
controversial point.
THE recent case of our vice presi-
dent, who, in no way was personally
responsible, saw successful surgical

reliably estimated, would have cost

Also it was learned that the bill
included no provision ear-marklng

come to begin thinking about reduc-

Mussolini Seen As Author of Note
to League.
ROME, July 81 (P.-Italy sent the
League of Nations today an implied
threat to quit the council session
Wednesday if it discussed phases of the
Italo-Ethiopian quarrel Italy did not
want talked about.
A telegram to j. A. c. Avenol, League
secretary general. said Italy would not
have any difficulty in participating in
solely to studying the most opportune
means of placing the Commission of
Cancellation and Arbitration in posi-
ton to resume its labors."
(The Ethiopian Commission
adjourned at Scheveningen, the
Netherlands, when members could net
agree on proper topics for discussion.
Ethiopia wanted frontier issues han
died. Italy refused. This week Rome
proposed to Adds Ababa its revival.
Though Ethiopia has not replied Off
cially, she is known to be still insistent
on discussion of territorial questions.)
Leagues Hands Held Tied.
Authoritative quarters here said to-
night the Leagues hands had been
effectively tied. Premier Benito
Mussolini, they asserted, had doused
literally with cold water any remain
ing hope that the controversy could
be settled peacefully.
european diplomats meanwhile
continued trying to find some way to
avert war, centering their efforts at
London, where the British govern
ment faced press demands for League
action to force Britain to close the
Suez Canal to italian warships.
Speakers urged British action to
halt Italy.")
Late this evening Italy had received
no answer to her request that Adds
Ababa say whether or not Ethiopia
was willing to resurrect the concilia-
ton commission, and warlike prepara-
lions continued.
Martial law was in force in Eritrea,
Italy's African colony, where Mus
solini has assembled the greatest war
machine Africa has ever seen.
Informed quarters pointed out that
Ethiopias answer to the Italian query
would not affect Italy's representa-
ton at the start of the Council ses-
sion.
If the answer is YES" Italy can tell
the Council Its labors are unnecessary,
since the Cancellation Commission
will meet again.
II the answer is mo-" Italy can
still object to the Councils appoint
ment of the fifth, neutral arbitrator
before termination, August rs, of the
period set by the Council.
Failing to get her possible request
for postponement accepted, Italy
might leave the Council table.

ISSUES RESTRAINER
IN SETUp LITIGATION
Williams Holds Liquor Dis
play Factor in Legality.

Superior Judge Joseph r. Williams
today issued restraining order,
effective until September, to prevent
the state excise police from inter-
fering with the sale of legal setups
at The Trees.
Judge Williams said in his opinion
Setups are not illegal unless liquor is
displayed. He upheld the section of
the liquor into resorts.
Milton Hottell, attorney for
Amusemants Inc, operators of The
Trees, protested the ruling would
give no assurance to customers of
the resort that they would not be
arrested.
The setups provision of the new
liquor control law is viewed by the
excise department as one of the
most important sections in the drive
to abolish road houses.
When court reconvenes in Septem-
Der, Judge Williams will hear argu-
ment on motion to make the re-
Straining order permanent.

Chief Is Home, TckIed
Pink by Sheriff's Raid

The chief continued today:
Of the sheriff is sincere and will
continue his cooperation with the
police as the police have cooper
ated with him in the past, am sure
both of us, the city and the county,
will be cleaned up"
The chief paused here and some
one asked why the police had not
made the raids before the sheriff,
inasmuch as the city has tradition
ally been the chiefs responsibility
and the county had been the sher-
ifs.
The police" he said, would have
raided if they had had the same in
formation as the sheriff"
The chief said he wouldn't know
offhand what that information
would have been. and pointed out
that the department is handicapped
since it has only one vice squad and
that works from 4 in the afternoon
to midnight.

u. S. SLUM PROJECT
HITS SNAG IN COURT
Condemning of Property Is
Held Illegal.

BIZ United Press
CINCINNATI, O., July ia de-
ciSion last Jan. of Federal Judge
Charles R. Dawson of Louisville
that the government has no right
to condemn private property for
housing projects was upheld today
by a 2-to-1 decision of the U. S.
Circuit Court of Appeals here.
The opinion was written by Judge
Charles H. Norman and concurred
in by Judge Ben Hicks. Judge
Florence Allen dissented.
The courts opinion sustained
Judge Dawson in his contention
that the Federal government had no
authority to condemn private prop
erty for private use, such as housing
and slum clearance projects planned
in 80 cities, although it did have
the right to condemn such property
for public use. The housing projects
have been generally defined as of
private character.

the three important cities of
Hankow, Hanyang and Wuchang are
grouped together. Fifty were found
in the suburbs of Hanyang as the

None of the deaths reported today
were from the Yangtze itself but
from the basins of the rivers that
feed it.
Dispatches from provincial cities
in estimating casualties said that
those reported we're belated and that
it was believed the total of deaths
would prove 10 be much larger than
they indicated.
News of the toll of life exacted by

added to anxiety for cities in the

where bodies and furniture of houses
were floating past from the areas

Violated Promise Not to

Pontiff Charges.
By United Press

By UHtted Press
ROME. July 15.-Pipe Plus,
through the official Vatican organ
Observatory Romano, today charged
that Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler of
Germany had broken faith with the
Vatican by disregarding concordat
which promised non-interference
with the church in Germany.
"a painful situation has been
created" the newspaper said. For
some time Catholics in Germany
have been going through difficult
hours in defense of their dogma,
their morals and their other inal-
ienable rights.
This is unexplainable and is ir-
reconcilable with the published as
surances Herr Hitler gaze when he
took possession of the German gov
eminent, namely. that he wishes to
respect the Church and observe
stipulations of the concordat.
Zone can think Of serious mo-
lestation suffered by ecclesiastical
authorities as being provoked by
reckless extremists" the journal
continued, but now DR.. Prick Or.
Wilhelm F. Prick, minister of the
INTERIOR has made statements
whereupon discussion is unneces-
sary.
1.-The first concerns the law of
sterilization. According to Minister
Prick this law must be observed by
every Catholic although the Church
instructs against sterilization and it
is condemned by divine law"
The Holy Sees remarks appar-
emily were occasioned by recent in
cidents in Germany involving the
closing of some churches, the ex-
pulsion of nuns and priests and
moves by the government to curtail
expansion of Catholic youth organ
izations.
