NAz|S BUILD ARMY
TOCURB RADICALS.
SchutzstaffeI Given Task of
Fighting Communism
Throughout Nation.
BY the Associated Press.


GOSLAR, Germany, November
16.-Side by side with the army, the
Nazis are energetically building an
other private" armed organization
for work that the defense forces
can't or won't perform.
It is a special branch of the black
uniformed Schutzstaffel, led by 35-
year-old Heinrich Himmler, and has
the task of fighting communism in
Germany.
This job was outlined by Himmler
today at a session of the German
Nutrition Guilds annual convention.
Watch Storm Troops.
Qualified circles declare the special
guards also have the task of police
duty in wartime, and of watching
their brother organization, the Storm
Troops, and even the army 'lest those
creations want to become bigger than
their creators"
Generally, the Schutzstaffel num-
bers perhaps several hundred thou
stand picked men-the elite of the
private armies the Nazis established
during their rise to power. They
form bodyguards for all the high
leaders, participate in parades, and
perform various propaganda and uni
flying functions. They carry sidearms,
or none at all.
1900 Heavily Armed.
The special group, however, Is
equipped with rifles, machine guns
and howitzers. It Is estimated to
number 10000.
Before admittance a man must pass
strict mental and physical tests. The
men are encouraged to marry, but
their fiancees must undergo the
same tests.

davit Of prejudice opposing Schultz's
removal from New Jersey to New York

nal justice"
Dean Arant said the committee
would consider whether "any dis
ciplinary action" would be taken
against the lawyers.

WHITE HOUSE HELD
SEC. AID |NF|GHT
Approval of President Is
Thought Given Plan to
Gird for Utilities War.
Nv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Presidential approval of an aggres-
Awe Securities Commission fight to
win holding company conformance
with the new utility law was reported
given yesterday at the White House
conference.
James M. Lands. commission chair
man, talked at length with President
Roosevelt Lands was non-committal
about the parley. describing it as gen.
eral in scope, but conceded the util-
tties situation was mentioned.
The Capital understanding, how
ever. was that Mr.. Roosevelt approved
the commissions recent warning to
stockholders and its generally aggres-
sive attitude toward holding company
registrations.
Is Days Are Left.
Within is days, holding companies
either must register with the commits
sion for supervision under the law or
fight it out in the courts. There still
was no positive information on the
utilities intentions.
The Committee of Public Utility
Executives, Washington organization
of the holding companies, announced
1t would issue statement tomorrow.
Reports persisted that most big
companies would not register, but a
utility representative insisted pri-
vately no company had yet made a
formal decision.
The stockholder warning was Lam
dis recent notice that the companies
will cast legal doubt on most Of their
major activities if they fail to register
by December /. The utility act holds
unlawful such activities as flotation
of securities unless the companies are
registered.
Utilities Held Ill Advised.
There was no doubt the commission
was prepared to fight all along the
line, although most officials agreed
with the remarks made q few days
ago by Joseph P. Kennedy. former
commission chairman. that the utili-
ties were i'll advised to battle until
they knew more definitely how the
act will work.
To be certain of covering all tech
nical legal points and to extend full
cooperation, the commission has de-
cided to remain open Sunday. De-
cember /, to receive registrations
Ordinarily. legal papers are not &C
cepted on Sundays, but the laws pen
alties become effective after" De-
cember /, and it was decided to follow
the statute to the letter.
Some Seek Exemption.
The commission, meanwhile. an
nounced that several small companies
had applied for exemption from the
act. These included Greenwich Wa
ter & Gas System, Greenwich, Conn;
Community Water Service Co. of New
York City, Western Light g. Telephone
Co. of Kansas City, Kans.; italian
Superpower Corp. of Dover. Del, anc
the Cleveland Cliffs Iron Co., the

Mather, Cyrus s. Eaton, Edward B
Greene, S. Livingstone Mather and
@. G. Wade.
There have been several other o1
these applications for exemption in
the past three weeks, but they had nc
reference to the major fight, since the
exemptions were sought on grounds
the companies were intrastate In

of Origin Held Against
Trade Agreement.

BERLIN, November Is fP.-The
German government protested to Lon
don today against British regulations
on German goods exported to England
after November 18.
An official communique said the
requirement that these products must
be accompanied by certificates of or
igin "is not in harmony with certain
provisions Of the German British
trade agreement"
HELD Anti-Italian Action.
Britain's action, to take effect the
same day that economic and finan-
cial sanctions against Italy go into
force. was considered an attempt to
prevent exports from Italy entering
Britain through a nation not joining
in the League of Nations sanctions.
Reichsfuehrer Hitler. it was said in
diplomatic circles, had already given
verbal assurances to both Britain and
France that he would not permit the
assembling of foreign goods destined
for Italy in Germany.
Diplomats were represented as feel
ing Hitler's pledge strengthened the
German embargo on expectation Of
important foodstuffs and raw ma
terials, which generally went into ef-
feet a. midnight. The embargo on
iron exports, however, will not be ap-
piled until November Is.
Coal Not On Embargo List.
Coal, which has been Germany's
largest export to Italy, was not on the
list of products which cannot be ex-
ported, nor was copper.
Among the products which will be
held in Germany were nickel, mag
nesium. manganese. bauxite. hides,
yarns. potatoes, oils, cooking fats and
all raw materials used by the iron,
metallurgical and rubber industries.

Ne,v u. S..Canadian Pact Hints
Are Hunted in Trade Figures
Compact, to Be Made Public Tomorrow,
Expected to Reflect in Tariff Cuts
Commerce Changes Since '29.

dent Roosevelt, Representative Coffee,
Democrat, of Nebraska, expressed an
opinion that if American duties on
live cattle were lowered in the Ca
madam agreement some safeguard for
the Western live stock industry would
be included in the form of quota limits
on such imports.
Other Articles Considered.
Belief was expressed here that the
President might have taken similar
action In the new agreement with re-
spect to other Canadian articles which
could compete with American goods.
American exports to Canada dropped
from $949, ,446,342 in 1929 to $2l0,-
651,3l2 in 1898, while during the same
period imports from that country de-
clined from $503, ,496.245 to $685.
408,850 Their trade improved some
what in 1884 The respective figures
were 1902, ,433, 900 and 1921. $4,000.
How this fall was reflected in spe-
cif1c commodities, which may throw
some light on the trend of the new
trade agreement, is shown in Com

the 1929 value of trade with that of
1898.
