Approximately 80 employees Of the
spinning room left their jobs in the
mill today, saying they objected to
working while troopers were on the
scene.
The walkout came when the mill
management posted a notice of a 10
per cent reduction in pay. The mill
asserted it was necessary for economic
reasons and that stockholders and
trustees had ordered the reduction
rather than close and put all employees
out of a job. The mill contended the
reduction still left employees above the
usual scale and higher paid than pro-
vided by the code.

Representative Taber of New York,

Senator George. Democrat, of Geor-

ACCORD IS SIGNED

ROME, January French Foreign
Minister Pierre Laval and Premier
Mussolini placed their signatures last
night at Z pm. upon accords linking
France and Italy, in a policy of
collaboration which may form the
foundation of new European peace
structure.
Hundreds of people gathered in the
Venezia Square while the histroic
signing occurred, but an imposing dis
play of police kept them at a careful
distance.
Observers expressed the opinion
that a return to Geneva by Germany
may be a possible result of the far
reaching Franco-Italian agreement
reached by the two statesmen.
They believed Germany and France
might make an understanding where
by Berlin would sign a non-inter-
vention accord and re-enter the
League, in return for Frances legaliz-
ing the rearmament she asserts Ger
many already has achieved.
High officials said they felt the
Italian accord constituted
great stride toward insurance OF peace
in Europe.
Free Austria Pledged.
A full agreement was reached by II
Duce and his French guest last night
after a lengthy conversation. Its
principal features are joint declara-
ton to preserve the independence of
Austria, five or six power pact of
non-interference and, finally, provi-
sionS for colonial concessions between
the two nations in Africa.
One report was that Czechoslovakia,
Yugoslavia, Austria and Hungary will
be invited to sign a pact with Italy
agreeing to interference with
each others internal affairs. Later,
this source said, England, France and
Rumania may be asked to adhere.
Both Italy and France are jealously
guarding Austria's independence, fear
ing a union of that country with Ger
many.
Relief Shown by Officials.
There was a general feeling Of re-
lief among French and Italian OFF,
cials. The two encountered many
difficulties, principally on Colonial
questions, before coming to an ac-

PENNINGTON, N. j., January T.
Betty Cow, nursemaid to the slain
baby Charles Augustus Lindbergh, jr.,
today identified the garments worn by
the baby on its last night in the Lind
bergh home, and admitted, under
cross examination, that she probably"
told others of the Lnidbergh's move
ments.
The little Scotch nurse took the
stand as a star State witness when
court opened for the second week of
the trial of Bruno Richard Haupt-
mann, Bronx carpenter, accused of
the murder, and was still undergoing
cross-examination when the luncheon
recess was taken from 1890 until las
pm.
Her direct questioning brought out
the finding by her hundred yards
from the Lindbergh home of a thumb
guard worn by the baby, point
through which the State hopes to
prove the baby was killed in Hunter
don County.
Did You Drop Guard?"
Edward j. Reilly, chief of Haupt-
mann's defense counsel, added signifi-
canoe to the thumb guard when he
held it up and doomed at the nurse:
Are you sure you didn't drop this
yourself?"
Miss Cow froze into defiance as she
shot back the words:
st did not"
She acknowledged to Reilly a prob
ability that she had told Red" john
son the Lindberghs planned not to
return from Hopewell to Englewood
on Monday, February 20, 1882, as
they would have done if the baby had
been we'll
She also acknowledged to the de-
fense a telephone call between herself
and johnson the fateful night of
March l. Johnson called her while
the Lindberghs dined, she said. in
response to a message she had left at
his home. She wanted to tell him
she could not keep date.
She told as we'll of the telephone
call to her from Mrs. Lindbergh by
which she learned the family was not
returning to Englewood because of the
baby's cold.
Mother Was Nurse.
She explained that Mrs. Lindbergh
preferred to act as nurse to her own
baby during the usual week end trips
to Hopewell. Miss Cow remained at
the home of Mrs. Dwight w. Morrow,
Mrs Lindbergh's mother, in Engle-
wood
The night of the kidnapping, how
ever, she was in Hopewell. having
been summoned by Mrs. Lndbergh.
During her testimony for the State
the nurse related that when Lind
bergh was apprised of the fact his
baby was missing, he procured
rifle, ran into the nursery, and cried:
Anne, they've stolen our baby!'
The cross-examination was pointed
to the line announced previously by
the defense, which is an attempt to
show that the kidnapping was plotted
in the Lindbergh home by others than
the family members and carried out
by two men and two women.
Was Sailor.
"Red" Johnson was a sailor on a
yacht owned by one of the Morgan
partners. He was acquainted with
Betty Cow and she acknowledged on
the stand that she went to movies
with him.
He was questioned during the in
vestigation of the kidnapping, but was
released and deported for illegal en-
try into the country. Investigation
of him at the time centered about the
fact that a milk bottle had been found
in a car which he drove to Bridge
port, Conn.

MATERIAL FOR MATCHES
FURNISHED BY IDAHO FORESTS

MISSOULA, October 21.-Ap-
proximately IS percent Of the material
used by the wooden match industry of
the United States is produced in The
Region One territory of the national
forests, |. v. Anderson, chief of forest
products division of the Northern
Rocky Mountain forest and range ex-
pertinent station. announces after
compilation of lumber industry
census
Of the 356 million board feet of
western Ndaho) white pine lumber
produced in the Inland Empire in 1884,
mainly from privately owned lands, 1Ol
million feet or 28 percent was match
plank, Mr.. Anderson said. Only one
fifth of tha. white pine lumber output
came from public state or federal
lands. generally the only timberlands
at present assured of being kent in con-
tinunrts timber production. The FIGURE
for the match industry was SLIGHTLY
hirher than in 1888, whan SO million
feet of match nlank We're produced.
Production ir1 1886 1aa335 is going ahead at APP
proximately the same rate.
Accepting the producson for 1888
and 1884 as indicative of the normal
requirements. the Importance of per-
petuating this source of raw material
is apparent" Mr.. Anderson said.
"Foreeters are. however, concerned
for the future of the white pine supply
because so percent of the 1884 cut came
from privately owned timberlands
where. with few exceptions, continuous
and satisfactory forest productivity of
the cutover land is moi assured
Labor, business and industry need
continuity Of this supply else the
American drama of migrating industry
and ghost towns may be reenacted
Perpetuity of supply is vital. also. to
states. counties and other political
units needing tax income with which
to carry on.
Employment conditions and their
stability after loggers and millmen
have turned out the match plank,
which is duly converted into matches
by special processing establishments,
are also a factor. After the timber is
cut into UNDERSIGNED match plank
it is taken to four Spokane match
block factories, maintained by the Dia-
mond Match company, the Ohio Match
company, the Federal Match company
and W. w. Powell & Company, and to
the White Pine Lumber comany plant

Of which ale then shipped to eastern
