TREATIES BEING
 TOSSED AWAY AS
 SCRAPS OF PAPER
United States. Loses Faith in the Integrity of
 European Nations
By HOBART 0. MONTEE United Press Stan Correspondent

Washington. June 12-(UP)- Faith in the integrity of nations and international obligations reached a new low in administra- tion circles today as officials silent ly watched the international grab bag contest now under way in all parts of the world.
 State department officials reluc- tantly admitted that important sections of the treaty structure of the world have gone by the board in the past four years. They even indicated the negotiation of addi- tional reciprocal trade treaties may be slowed until some of the scrats of paper, which once were sacred treaties, shall have settled to earth.
 No one in official position at the state department today would dis cuss the sanctity of international treaties. Secretary of State Cordell Hull pointed1y evaded all ques- tions.
 Reasons for Silence
 Some of the reasons for the off, ficial reticence were:
 1. The United States is now re- ceiving semi-annual populations of the European war debts. Great Britain, Italy and Czcchoslovakia have notified the state department. Finland, alone is expected to pay.
 2. The Japanese military is on the march through China again, as 1t has ben periodically since Sept. IS, 1881, The specification" of that portion of North China lying within the Great Wall which is the immediate objective.
 Officials here privately consider that in this military thrust against China the nine power treaty, the covenant of the League of Nations. the Kellogg Briand peace pact. and the open door agreements for Chi na are all being violated. 8. The world recently witnessed the open defiance of the military clauses of the Versailles treaty by Germany, without hindrance. Re- presentatives of Great Britain and Germany are now formally discuss ing how far the naval clauses of that treaty may be violated by Germany without bringing Eng land to the brink of war with Ger many.
 4. Italy is mobilizing in Africa against Abyssinia, in what appears here to be defiance of treaty signed with Abyssinia few years ago. The European nations appear powerless to stop Italy.

(Continued from Page D circles freely predicted cabinet upheavel must result from the statement, as it has been known for a long time that sharp di- vision exists among members of the government loyal to Gales and others who are partisan Cardenas men.
 The Cardenas men outnumber the Callistas, although the latter hold key positions in the cabinet, including Gales son in the import ant post of secretary of communi- cations, in control of railroads, highways, telephones and tele- graphs.
 Industries Pleased
 Industrial leaders loudly praised Ca1les' condemnation in his state- ment of the series of strikes which have continued all through the Cardenas administration. The state ment roundly denounced recent strikes against foreign corporations such as the British Power Co.,, American Telephone Co.,, Standard oil of New Jersey and others, even going to thel ength where his crit- icism was regarded as a direct slap at the policies of the dominant National Revolutionary party, which is avowedly laborist.
 Labor's reaction is certain to be strongly against Gales, despite the fact that he asserted labor's pres- ent policy is bound to be ruinous to labor itself.

MORE EVIDENCE
 FOR HAUPTMANN

Los Angeles, June 12.-UP)- Armed with evidence which he said twill save Bruno Richard Haupt- mann from the electric chair" At torney Vincent A. Marco today was preparing to leave for New York to continue the legal battle to save the convicted slayer of the Lind bergh baby.
 Marco, retained to. aid Haupt- mann's appeal, said the new in- formation had been uncovered dur ing two-months investigation
 He said he would seek to have it considered by the appellate court of New Jersey which meets June 20, and that if he fails he twill resort to the next body that can hear the case"
 The attorney contends his evil dence hinges on two major points which he maintains he can prove: That the Kidnapping of the baby was an "inside job" and did not involve the ladder which experts testified was made by Hauptmann. and that Hauptmann was not in the vicinity of Hopewell, N. J., on the night of the abduction.

New York, June 12 (UP)-Price movements oh the stock exchange were confused today by passage by the senate of the Wheeler-Rayburn Utility Holding Company bill and by sharp drop in gains led by wheat.
 The market opened irregularly lower with Utilities off fractions to 2 points. Then industrials scared and trading pickle up. Even the utility issues recovered smartly. Later in the day further selling come into some of the preferred utilities and industrials and rails lost part of their gains, few of them making losses.
 Trading increased on rallies and fell off on reactions. giving finan- cial observers the impression the market was making a creditable showing. Some few traders looked for modification of the Utility bill in the house but they were in the minority. Most of them looked for a bill that would destroy the utili- ty holding companies, although the belief was general that if the present measure become law the utility companies i m m ediately would test its constitutionality in the courts.
 Columbia Gas preferred lost more than points, while declines of 1 to more than points were noted in preferred issues of Elec- tric Power and Light and Amer ican Power & Light. Smaller de- clines were noted in such issues as Consolidated Gas, Public Service of New Jersey, Pacific Gas, Pacific Lighting, National Power and Light and North American.
 Chemical issues were hurled up with new highs in such shares as Du Pont and Monanto Chemical. Gains in the group ranged to 2 points and most of them were re- tained.

CALLES STATEMENT

Mexico City, June 12.-(UP)- Gen. Plutarco Elias Gales, former president and power behind the government, in an earnest state ment to members of his national revolutionary party today, gave a plain warning that political bicker- ings were leading toward blood shed.
 He called for m immediate end of intrigue and faction-forming and then, turning to the working classes that keep the government in power, denounced recent strikes as selfish and unjustified.
 In country where the govern ment revolutionary party-the PNR-is supreme and the govern ment itself has been denounced as extremely radical in it's economic policies, the statement by Mexico's most respected man was regarded as of paramount importance and was expected to bring early devel- opments.
 The former presidents statement was made to group of senators who visited him. He said that the PNR must stop trying to dominate congress. which was representative of the people as whole.
 Attacks Workers
 Gales addressed workers with equal directness. He reminded them that the government has fought and won for them better conditions.
 Unfair workers are playing with the economic life of the country" he said. Among strikes Gales de- nounced was that against the Mexi- can Telephone company (American pwned), which he said had grant, ed its men high wages, pensions, medical service, workmen's com pensation and vacations though 1t had paid no dividends for years.
 Gales said he knew that his statement would bring the criticism that he was going back on his word.
 But" he said, "I take this upon myself for the benefit of my coun- try. desire the triumph of the present government. so that with the great opportunities offered it, 1t may leave behind it a trail of light
