WASHINGTON, Sept. REX
ford Ct. Tugwell, undersecretary of
agriculture, who is used to hearing
himself called a "braintruster," a
red" a "meddling college profess
sor" and a good many other things
not exactly complimentary had a
new appelation to add to his list to-
day.
1t was: old fashioned reaction
airy employer"
The epithet was pinned on by
the American Federation of Gov
ernment Employees and resulted
from his dismissal of an employee
of the resettlement administration.
Tugwell, center of the famous
| red" inquiry of DR.. William Writ,
the Gary, Ind, schoolmaster, is ac-
customed by this time to attacks
from the right wing. Now he is
being lambasted from the left.
Center of the latest Tugwell cpl
sode is DR.. William E. Zeuch, who
was fired by Tugwell as corporation
counsel of the resettlement admin
istration.
The employees union charged
zeuch was "blacklisted" by Harold
L. Ickes, secretary of interior, and
dismissed by Tugwen as a result.
zeuch was employed by Ickes in
! the now dismantled subsistence
homesteads division. After being
let out there, he obtained the job
with TugWell's new unit.
Union leaders said Tugwell re-
fused to give any reason for
an interview with a union delega-
| ton in anger.
He's just an old-fashioned re-
dictionary employer" they charged
in handbills giving notice of a pro-
test mass meeting. 'Blacklisting of
government workers must stop"

will be pretty well parched out if
they wait until it actually gets on

Plans for the rum manufacture
have gone right ahead despite all
political troubles over the island.
But it will still be about three years
before any is offered on the general
market.
The reason for this, Virgin Is
lands rum experts declared, is to
insure that a perfectly aged product
is produced. Thousands of gallons
of rum are now aging in the is
lands. But none is to be sold until

Leaky Valve Responsible for Blaze, Call for Serv. ices of Firemen

At 9;41 this morning, the fire department responded to a alarm from Box 216, located in North Square, for q fire in q candy and ice cream parlor at 47s North Main street, owned and conducted by John DeVito. John was out ot the time and therefore avoided all the excitement.
 In the front of the little rtore Is a sO-calIed 'parlor Stovc", som eth!ng of the type old lime families used to have in the "Gay Ntnetics" when the family organ occupied q prominent part of inc then "parlor". The stove wac equipped with what the fire mar. sha1's office said was too largo a burner. The feed pipe from the oil bottle to the burner got out of control through a leaky valve, and the oil flooded the ash pit. This got on fire and the smelly and suffocating smoke filled the marble counter establishment.
 The oil container was disconnect. ed by the flremcn, and the fire extinguished.
 Box PIG Is one Of the most i'm potant alarm stations In tn city That's why 50 much fire apparatus responded. But when Capts!n Joseph J. Kelly, thhe acting deputy chief, ascertained the facts. he sent back the companies without delay.
 There are two stores and IF apartments in the building. which is under the control of the trus- tee of the Merchants Trust Co.

SHOT AT BIRD
 BLAMED FOR WAR
Border Clash of Last De. cember Is Cause of
 Present HOstilities

New York, Oct. 4. CUP)--One shot, fired at q bird. may have started the war in Ethiopia.
 This explanation of the Ualual border clash last December, the incident that supposedly set in mos ton Italy's war preparations. was given by witnesses before an inter- national committee of four at Geneva, the American member. Dr. Pitman Benjamin Potter, revealed today.
 pr. Potter, former political sci- ence professor at the Universally Of Wisconsin, returned from Europe on the same ship the North Ger man Lloyd Liner Bremen. with Sumner Wcllcs. assistant secretary of state. and Mrs. Welles.
 The Ualual commission heard, pr Potter said, that 1,500 Ethiopian troops and 500 Italian native SOL dicrs, in the undemarcated and dis puted border fringe, had "stared at each other" for 10 days, when some restless watcher fired at a bird.
 The shot, fiicking tense nerves, plunged the forces into an all-night clash, which ended only when white Italian officers assumed charge, causing. the Philippians to be routed with tank and airplane endorsements.
 The commission's decision that Ethiopia was not to blame for the incident. deprived Italy of her orig innl complaint. Two Italian mem bcrs, AS well as q French member and Dr. Potter, concurred.
 Dr. Potter today said he believed Italy had good grounds for rem sedial action in Ethiopia, in the un- defined border status and the fact that Italy could develop the coun- try proftably for both, but declared that her methods were entirely out of key with postwar proceed urc."
