URGE LABOR
DISPUTE Bill
Word Comes 1t Will Pass
and Be Signed as Labor
Congress Held
(convr;sht, 1885, United Press)

(convr;sht, 1888, United Press)
WASHINGTON, Apr. 80. CUP
As the first labor congress ever
held in this country noisily debat.
ed and endorsed the Wagner-Con,
nery disputes bill, word came last
night from usually reliable sources
that congress would enact the
measure and that President Roose'
Welt would accept it.
The senate labor committee
agreed late yesterday to report
the bill favorably. Chairman Da-
yid I. Walsh, D., Mass, said the
report would be submitted to the
senate as soon as it could be writ
ten. The bill was strengthened by
the addition of a clause requiring
employers to bargain with workers
when the latter requested confer
ences on working conditions.
Labor considers the Wagner bill
the most vital piece of legislation
affecting American workers pre-
sented to congress in half a CEN
fury. Unionists insist the govern
ment cannot enforce Section IA
of the MIRA and that the worker
has no protection under. the act.
The Wagner bill writes into The
statute books the right of labor to
bargain collectively through rep
resentatives of their own choosing
without coercion from employers;
creates a supreme courtYnto pass
on labor disputes andle outlaws
company-dominated unions.

PARKER Dam
WORK HALTED
BY HIGHcOURT
Arizona's Plea Upheld on
Ground of Unfair Divi-
sion of Water

WASHINGTON, April 80. (UP)
The supreme court made three
rulings yesterday affecting the
new deal, one of them forcing
the public works administration
to stop work on Parker dam, a
part of the gigantic Boulder dam
irrigation project.
The other two were in cases
designed to test the validity of
the NRA. The court dismissed
the Spielman motor case from
New York on technical grounds
and refused to consider Cali
fornia oil case involving the pc
troleum code.
The court still has pending the
Schechter poultry case from New
York, however, and will hear
arguments Thursday in what the
administration considers a thor
ough-going test of code wage and
hour principles.
In dismissinm the governments
suit to restrain Arizona from
interfering with Parker dam,
the court held that necessary APP
proval by congress had not been
obtained. AS a result, reclama-
ton Commissioner Elwood Mead
announced:
81 have ordered R. F. Walter,
chief reclamation engineer at
Denver, to stop work on the dam
for the present time"
Mead will discuss the problem
with PWA Administrator Harold
l.. Ickes today.
Arizona at one time sought to
use force to stop work on the
dam, dispatching national guards
men aboard the states one-boat
navy, a river scow, to the scene.
The state is dissatisfied with the
Boulder dam power scheme,
charging that the apportionment
of the Colorado river water is
unfair.
The dismissal of the Spilman
motor case was in line with a re-
quest by justice department Of
ficials, who felt that the Schecht-
err poultry case presented a bet
| ter picture of NRA principles.

ming. The representatives of the
four organizations voted to form
one committee and organized by
the election of ]. T. Fain as chair
man, Charles F. Toms, ST., as vice
chairman, and ]. C. Coston as Sec
rotary.
Conditions in the county with
reference to the safety of prop
erty were discussed In detail. In.
formation was placed before the
committee showing that conditions
have been steadily growing worse,
in spite of efforts of the authori-
ties to break up this form of law
lessness. Petty thieying, house
breaking and more aggravated
methods of depriving citizens of
their property unlawfully have be-
come a menace to the town and
County. Nom resident property
owners especially have become
highly incensed by the damaging
of property and the loss of per-
sonal property. Evidence was pre-
scented to the committee in letters
and statements from nonresident
property owners and taxpayers
and was verified by members of
the committee. After thorough
discussion the committee reached
certain conclusions which it will
undertake to transform into ac-
ton to meet this menace to the
safety of property in the county.
The committee decided to spon-
sor a countrywide organization OF
citizens which will cooperate with
the authorities of town and coun-
ty in detecting, convicting and
Furnishing those guilty of the dep
radations referred to. This organ
ization will seek to build up senti-
ment for law enforcement and to
bring the force of public sentiment
to bear on courts and juries for
the strict enforcement of all pen
alties provided by the statutes
when law breakers have been con-
victed in the courts.
The committee approved the
plan for setting up a special force
of law enforcement officers in the
town and county, this force to be
composed of citizens regularly
sworn in for the performance OF
duty, but to be a plain-clothes OF
under-cover force. A sub-commlV-

Business Leaders in Con.
ference Decry Efforts to
Change Present Act

WASHINGTON, April 80. fUP).
The nations business and labor
leaders opened a series of sep
arate conferences Monday in a
determined effort to influence
the future course of the new
deal.
The United States Chamber of
Commerce committees attack on
the banking bill yesterday came
as the measure was brought up
in the house for consideration.
In addition to making permanent
the federal deposit insurance fea-
ture' the bill amends the federal
reserve act to create virtually a
central monetary authority.
The committee charged the
measure would increase the dan
ger of political domination of the
reserve systems operations and
would tend to increase pressure
on the system to make its opera
lions conform to ''inflationistic
policies" IS
Instead, the committee propos-
ed that congress move slowly in
disturbing the present act and in
stead limit changes to periodic
reviews of the operations of the
reserve system in the light of
changing conditions.

WASHINGTON, Apr. 80. (UP)
A diplomatic incident" with Can
ada figured yesterday in the first
hint in many years of war-mind-
edness along the 5000 mile I'M
protected Canadian-American bor-
der.
Canada asked the United States
for the full text of remarks made
by Brig. Gen. Chas. E. Kilbourne,
recent chief of the war plans divi-
sion, to the house military affairs
committee on the question of air
bases along the Canadian border.
Kilbourne and other officers of
the army air corps and war plans
division had given the committee
their views in secret but they were
published yesterday, revealing a
desire among some army strate-
gists to have a great air base in
the Great Lakes region near Can
ada. Many other secret plans of
army strategists also were pub
lshed.
simultaneously with this "inci-
jlefir.r Under Secretary of State
William Phillips unveiled a tablet
here, dedicated to the Rush-Bagot
agreement demilitarizing the Can
adian-American boundary.
Kilbourne testified on the Will
cox bill to provide for seven ma
jor defense airdromes in the
United States and possessions. The
bill put airdrome No. near the
Great Lakes.
AS a substitute for this, so as
not to attract attention, Kilbourne
suggested creating major air
dromes inthe northeast and north
west but using only expanded
landing fields and commercial
fields near the Canadian border.

to put in the bill the Great Lakes
area" he said, "but could not

GOVERNMENT SAID
DEEPLY CONCERNED

LONDON, April 30.-(UP).-
The government was deeply con-
cerned last night by word that
Germany again is breaking the
Versailles treaty with a program
for immediate construction Of II
or more formidable "vest-pocket"
submarines. ..-
Sir John Simon, foreign secre-
tary, told the house Of commons
that Germany had intimated con-
struction orders already have been
given.
Meanwhile Germany will lay
down the IL keels in May, and
experts believed the 250-ton. u
boats would be rushed in order to
be ready for service before the
end of summer.
Germany insists the submarines
are purely for coastal defenses IN
the Baltic.
British experts, however, are
convinced that these compact little
ships are capable of a 6,000-mile
cruising radius which may influ-
ence the balance of power on the
high seas. They could reach the
! United States, for example, and
return without refueling.
The submarine parts are under
stood already to have been manu-
featured.
They are reported revolutionary
