LAWMAKER HITS
BUDGET BUREAU
Refusal to Increase Fund
for Police DepIored by
Mrs. Jenckes.

Budget Bureau refusal to approve
funds for an increase in personnel of
| the Department of Justice and the
Metropolitan Police Department has
endangered the safety and lives" of
residents of the District. it was
charged today by Representative
Jenckes, Democrat, of Indiana.
Mrs. Jenckes. member of the spe-
cial Crime Investigating Committee of
the House District Committee, made
her criticism of the Budget Bureau in
a letter to Representative Randolph,
Democrat, of West Virginia, who will
direct the inquiry.
| She declared the Department of
Justice and the Metropolitan Police
Department, working together, could
dispose of Washington's crime situa-
ton quickly if given additional per-
| SOnnel and proper laws. She declared
however, these organizations have
| been "hampered and curtailed" by the
Budget Bureau through its disregard
of the recommendations of the execu-
tiveS.
Offers Recommendations.
Mrs. Jenckes' letter contained sew.
eral recommendations for considera-
ton of the committee They were:
First, that the committee investigate
ways and means of securing absolute
coordination and cooperation be-
tween officials of the Department of
Justice, the Metropolitan Police De-
partment, the Secret Service and the
courts of the District, Maryland and
Virginia; second, that steps be taken
to provide the Department of Justice
and the Metropolitan Police Depart
ment with funds to increase their re-
spective personnels.
Attorney General Cummins and
Maj. Ernest w. Brown, superintendent
of the Metropolitan Police Depart
ment," Mrs. Jenckes said, will quickly
solve the crime situation if Congress
will provide the necessary funds and
legislation"
Maj. Brown asked for 140 additional
policemen in the coming fiscal year.
The Budget Bureau recommended
funds for the appointment of IS. The
House Appropriations Committee, how
ever, refused to approve this recon-
mendation and the 1886 supply bill in
its present form does not provide for
any additional men.
Inquiry Opens Monday.
The crime inquiry will start Monday
at l0:30 am. with Commissioner Mel
vim c. HaZen and Maj. Brown as the
first witnesses.
Randolph said several prominent
Washington lawyers had volunteered
their services to the committee during
the investigation. but no decision had
been reached on the selection of a
legal aide. A suggestion also has been
made that William A. Roberts, peo-
pies counsel before the Public Utili-
ties Commission, or member of the
staff of Corporation Counsel Barrett
L. Prettyman be assigned to aid the
committee.
A resolution authorizing the in
vestigation and providing $1,000 for
the use of the committee, introduced
yesterday by Randolph, has been re-
ferred to the Rules Committee. Rep
resentative O'Connor, Democrat, of
New York, chairman of that commit
tee, has promised prompt action on
the resolution and Speaker Byrns has
given his approval of the inquiry.

BARRIERS REGULATION
BILL is INTRODUCED

Written Examinations Referred
to D. C. Committee.
A bill to regulate BARRIERS in the
District, under which they would
have to give a practical demonstra-
ton Of ability and take written ex-
animation before being licensed, has

barbering for one year preceding
passage of the bill would be entitled
to a registration certificate without
examination. The bill sets forth a
schedule of license fees and condi-
tions under which the registration
board could revoke licenses. 1t also
imposes certain health requirements
on BARRIERS.

Several Attend PIT. A. Meeting.

There was a very good attendance
at the Parent-Teachers Association
meeting in the school Friday evening.
Three different groups of school stu
dents rendered songs under the lead
ership OF Miss Irene Olson. The de-
STABILITY of having music in the
school as a regular department was
presented by Miss Thora Sorensen
from the viewpoint Of the teachers,
by H. r. Buck as viewed by the school
board. and by Svend Petersen as
viewed by the parents; all three were
very much in favor of it, stressing the
fact that it is better to have music
(singing, orchestra, band) in the
school so that all children will have
an equal opportunity, rather than the
present method of having this asset
available only to those who can af-
ford to take private lessons.
Supt Otto G. Hoiberg gave brief
explanation of his efforts along the
line of securing WPA projects for
the school.
DR.. A. L. Arends gave an interest
Ing Idlh on the value OI HdNlHS Cull-
dren and adults take the so-called
T. B. test, which is available this
week through the efforts of the Pine
County Health Association.
The organization again decided that
all parents and taxpayers are con-
sidered members of the PIT. A. and
those who are able are urged to pay
25 cents to the treasurer as dues for
one year.
The coffee committee Friday eve
ming consisted of Mrs. j. Albert
johnson. Mrs. Arthur Olesen and Miss
Solveig Utoft. The coffee committee
for the next meeting is as follows:
Mrs. A W Conway. Mrs. Svend Pc
tersen and Mrs. Wayne E. Jacobsen.

seemingly forgetting that Italy's war
is an invasion of another country's
territory, pleaded that fairness be
shown all parties concerned, and spe-
Gifted Italy. Winston Churchill, ira
ditionally riding his naval hobby, de-
manded bigger British navy, unbril-
liantly maintaining that the British
but emitting reference to the fact
that even with that powerful back
bone the League did not prevent the
Italian attack on Ethiopia.
Thereupon the British parliament
was prorogued by His Majesty the
king, and the members went home

for November a.
1.-The Incident"
In his speech in the house of COM
mons Winston Churchill had referred
to the Italo-Ethiopian war as a mere
incident. when compared to the fact
of the German rearmament.
That little incident" is deve' oping
but at what rate no one at a distance
can determine. 1t does seem as
though there has been a lull in mill
tary activities although little fight
ing has been going on here and there.
Behind this apparent quiet, how
ever, preparations appear to have been
made for important offensive move
ments which may be in progress
when these lines are being read. The
Italians are evidently planning to
surge southwark from their strong
positions in the northern part OF
Ethiopia and, at the same time
through the Ogaden desert, toward
the railroad line which connects Ad.
dis Ababa, the capital city, with the
outside world.
All this suits the Ethiopian strategy
which, it seems, has for its definite
purpose coaxing the enemy farther
and farther into the interior of their
country, there to be cut off from their
bases, surrounded and annihilated.

dangerous trap thus awaits the ltalt-
ans.
Peace Talk.
During the last few days there has
been a great deal of so-called peace
talk; with French Premier Pierre
Laval as go-between Italy is reported
to have made peace overtures to Great
Britain, and it is said they have
been rejected.
One cardinal point in all MussO-
lini's peace propositions has been the
demand that a very considerable part
of Ethiopia become, more or less for
mally. Italian territory. But no offer
has been made Ethiopia-althOugh
that country should be supposed to
have a greater interest in the imme-
diate situation than any other. Ethi-
opia whose very future and fate are at
stake has not been consulted. Italy
seems to feel that this is a matter
which ought to be disposed of by Eu-
ropean powers.
And the Ethiopian reaction to this
position has been the reiterated state
ment by Emperor Halle Selassie that
he will not consider peace negotia-
tions as long as any Italian soldiers
are on his soil, and that under no
circumstances will he surrender to
Italy one square inch of Ethiopian
territory.

Danish Singer Visits Minneapolis.

The great Dane in music" so
named by Victor Nilsson in the Min
neapolis Journal, made his appear
ance at the regularly scheduled
Thursday Musical in the Minneapolis
Alvin theatre last week. The artist
is Lauritz Melchior, Danish tenor, and
his concert greatly pleased the audi
ence and a return visit of this popu-
lar singer most certainly would be
welcomed by music lovers in the
Mill City.
Mr.. Nilsson described the singers
interpretations in the various lam
guages as very well done and pleas
ing and placed him as one Of the
really great singers of the present
day. Some of Mr. Melchior's num-
bers were, Erode" "A Swan,
"Hoerer du," "Jeg elsker dig" and
other popular Scandinavian, German
and English selections.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
Continued from Page u

CONTINUED from Page ID
nations-Great Britain and France
among them-have formally declared
their adherence to this class of sane
tions. No doubt, there will be more
coming in. But, of course, such
sanctions can become hurtfully effec-
tive only if all nations join hands
against Italy.
Outsiders.
There is nowhere anybody who real
ly believes that 100 per cent boycott
against Italy can be carried out. In
the first place, good many cOuntr eS
are afraid of the effect that economic
sanctions may have on their own trade
balance. Cessation of trade with
losses to the nations which stop COM
merce with the offending country.
Then there is the group of nations
outside the League to consider. net
ably the United States, Germany, ia
pan and Brazil.
AS far as the United States is con-
cerned. exports of war material to
both belligerent countries have been
forbidden by presidential proclama-
ton. In response to an inquiry from
the League, the American government
has pointed to this proclamation and
also called attention to the fact that
the president has warned American
citizens that they trade with, and
travel to, belligerent countries at
their own risk. They cannot claim
protection of the American govern
ment if they ignore that warning.
This action by the government at
Washington was proclaimed to the
world before the League of Nations
took any definite step. As for takin G
direct part in League sane tions
we'll. that is a question which does
not, and cannot, concern the United
States at this moment. for participa-
ton would mean a breach of neu-
trality.
Germany may carry on trade with
Italy with the exception. indicated by
Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler, that wal
materials may not be shipped to that
country. and not to Ethiopia. Beyond
this concession Germany does not just
now seem willing to go.
Japan remains inscrutably silent
but the inference is drawn that she
will, at least informally, line up with
the League nations. Brazil has said
nothing, one way or the other.
In brief. economic sanctions against
an aggressor nation must be immedi-
ate and complete in order to be effec-
tive. In this case they are not i'm
mediate, nor are they complete, there
fore likely to be ineffective.
British Speeches.
Developments being what they are
Great Britain has taken the lead in
the world movement against Italy
not solely because of profound British
interest in preserving Ethiopian indie
pendence, but because a victoriou
Italy might endanger the vital in
terests of the British empire. Fol-
that reason certain speeches in the
British parliament a few days age
we're awaited with a great deal of in
terest. They were duly delivered, and
they proved a disappointment.
Foreign Minister, Sir Samuel Hoare
indirectly encouraged Italy to &c
ahead with her Ethiopian expedit on
for he said that Great Britain would
not participate in military sanctions
