Doc) Barker. the big and tough
leader Of the Southwest's most no
torious gang, was accused today
without denial by his captors of
betraying his mother and brother
TO death in an effort to win clem-
ency for himself.
The outlaw chieftain had no op-
portunity TO comment on the re-
port himself. Despite official an
nouncement in Washington that he
has been held here by Federal
agents since Jan. 8. the Chicago
agents refused TO admit they have
him Presumably he is held incom-
municado in one of the secret cells
Of the Department Of Justice head
quarters in the Loop Bankers
building.
Belief that Barker was guilty in
directly of the deaths Of his mother
and brother arose from the fact
that his arrest preceded the Staying
Of the two in Oklawaha, Fla, by
just eight days.
Hit 60-year-Old mother, machine
gun-toting Kate (MO Barker, and
his brother, Fred, died in a six

brother. D. NJ. Laid, agent temper
arily in charge of the Chicago

Il can't comment on that. I have
no Instructions to release any in
formation on the matter"

cells have been known before to be-
tray friends ami associates into the
hands of their lnquisitors.

A Federal indictment charged
that the three conspired to dispose
of the ransom money. Government

Homer S. Cummings, was captured
on the same night that Russell Glib

killed while attempting to escape a
Gordon of Federal agents. Two

By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, March 26-Ob- servers here, including Government officials with Cabinet rank on down the line, can't get very excited over the controversy between Sec retary Swanson of the Navy and Comptroller General McCarl.
 They've seen the silver haired blue-eyed genial little man, whom not even the President of the Unit ed States can remove from office, win out too often before in simi- lar encounters with the big shots ?
 The row with Swanson will be just another notch in McCarls desk top is the way one describes it.

Perpetu ation of Present Austrian Regime Frown-

BERLIN, March 26.-The Anglo German conversations ended today with statement made public that President Adolf Hitler had not giv- en definite indication how large a military force Germany intends to build Hitler turned back the arms problem to Germany's World War allied enemies, German officials said.
 Regarding the League of Nations Hitler repeated the German argu- ment that all matters must be set tied for Germany before he would consider re-entering the League.
 The question of a larger German navy was kept in the background. Hitler suggested on-aggression pact for Austria but refused to enter any non-interference agree ment which would mean perpetua- ton of the present Austrian re- gime.
 Sir John Simon, British Foreign Secretary, returns to London to- morrow to tell the British cabinet what Hitler will do.
