The Administration is deSirous
Of pushing it's four-billion-dollar

speedily as possible. Officials
want the machinery geared and

Meanwhile, two troublesome IS

One is the perennial battle over

old question of whether the United

Of Nations World Court.
Faces Revolt
On both issues. the Admins
tratlon is faced With revolt. There
is little question but that both
houses will vote to pay off the
soldiers and equally little doubt
that Mr.. Roosevelt will veto it.
The House can and probably will
enact it over his veto, but the
issue is closer and more doubtful
in the Senate.

Anti-Nazi Coup in Saar

U.N.SD The German govern.
ment is prepared to put down any
anti-Nazi coup in the Sarr after
the results of yesterdays vote is
made known.
That there will be a strong
movement to prevent Germany's
regaining the rich industrial val
ley, either through legal channels
the League of Nations-or by
force, was clearly indicated today
in remarks of leaders of the pro-
league united front.
This organization of commun-
lists, socialists and catholics, re-
puted to number nearly a quarter
of the Saar's voting strength, has
already asked the league in ad-
vance to consider alleged Nazi
terrorism in judging the plebiscite
results.

The three were wounded in q

Their one hope was that q
heavy anti-Nazi minority would |
make the League councillors think |
twice before turning the basin
back to the Reich, and a move |
was already under way to blame |
Nazi terrorism" for the German
plurality.
Under the stern eyes Of $500 |
foreign soldiers and the regular
Saar police, the record election
passed off quickly and quietly.
Nazi Headquarters Bombed
At Neunkirchen a bomb burst |
into the German Automobile Club,
headquarters of the Nazis, but no
one was hurt. Several arrests
were made at an impromptu Com
munist rally. and there were
minor clashes.
The 2 per cent that did not |
vote abstained, it was said, more
from fear that their ballot would
be counted against them by their
future rulers than from indif-
ference.
Work was almost at a stand
still today as the Saarlanders
awaited the result of the count,
and tomorrow is to be declared
a "joy strike" by laborers.

Of the future of Communists, Jews,
