pressed official regret that Magis-

marks concerning the Nazi flag,

his words as not voicing any ON

Secretary Hull extended this
Governments regret orally to DR..

Of the German Embassy, who was
summoned to the State Depart
ment for that purpose.
Although in this country" Hull
said. "the right of freedom Of
speech is we'll recognized by our
fundamental law, it is to be re-
gretted that an official having no
responsibility for maintaining rela-

gardless of what he may personally
think of the laws and policies Of
other governments, thus indulge
in expressions offensive to another

them to have a deep impression upon
any State policeman who might over
take the holder for ignoring the safety
regulations on the public highways.
There is no place in a Democratic
form Of government for special
privilege of any type and particularly
of a special privilege so reprehensible
as permission for some to violate the
law.
"It is my earnest hope that this
strange growth will not be permitted
to survive by State officials who have
the power to exterminate it."
Gov. Nice said he had not "the
slightest idea" that the cards had
made their appearance, although he
understood they had been issued in
previous administrations.
"I never had one and I have never
seen one" the Governor said.

NEW PLEA Of CASH
FOR PUBLIC WORKS

Possibility President May
Ask More Millions Is
Discussed.
PERMANENT PROJECTS

Housing Particularly Thought to
Be in Line in Any Move

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A possibility that President Roose-
welt will ask the next Congress to
appropriate more millions for perma-
nent public works was discussed in in
formed circles today.
Neither confirmation nor q denial
that he had been assured the Presi-
dent would follow such a course could
be obtained from Secretary Ickes, the
public works administrator.
But other officials, striving to read
between the lines of the presidential
order setting aside the bulk of remain
ing work relief funds for temporary
work under Harry L. Hopkins juris-
diction, thought it highly probable
that Congress would be asked for more
money to salvage some permanent
P. w. A. projects.
1t was pointed out that, since the
$4,000 000. 900 works program was an
nounced last Winter, many communi-
ties had been encouraged to develop
P. w. A. projects which nov have little
apparent chance 70 qualify Tor any OF
the $4,000, 100000.
Public Housing to Be in Need.
One type of public works mentioned
particularly as likely to be included
in any new appropriation was public
housing. The original work relief
allotment for this purpose was cut
Sl00,000,000 by the President yester-
day, this amount being made available
instead for other P. w. A. projects
which can be started by December IS
To be financed out OF the 81 $780,
100000 remaining unallotted from the
work-relief fund, Mr.. Roosevelt said
at his press conference yesterday, per-
manent public works projects will have
to meet these rules:
l. Contracts must be let on or be-
fore December Is.
in year.
8. They must be in an area where
there are sufficient persons on relief
to provide the workers.
4. They must abide by the work
relief requirement calling for wages
at the average annual rate of $3.50 per
man.
While these rules were regarded as
giving Ickes an opportunity to qualify
some of the public works which Hop
kinS previously had thrown out, OFF,
cials felt that a good many others
which they considered desirable would
be unable to meet them.
Industrial Efficiency Up.
Favor for further unemployment re-
lief appropriations was read by some
observers into the Presidents recent
assertion at Hyde Park that, even if
industrial production were resumed
Immediately at the 1929 level, indus

5 BURN TO DEATH
IN TRAIN WRECK
Oil Tank Cars Ignite When
Freight DeraiIs-Man's
Leg Amputated.
BY the Associated Press.

MONROE, La, September IA
Five unidentified bodies were removed
early today from the ruins Of about
Is freight cars which were destroyed
by fire after the derailment of ar
Illinois Central Eastbound train three
miles west of here. Several others
were believed to have perished.
One man trapped in the flaming
wreckage was rescued by amputation
Of his leg with pocket knives.
First reports, attributed to a man
who described himself as Rober.
Nolan. an Indiana transient. aboard
the train at the time of the wreck,
about 1920 am, said approximately
40 men lined the sides of two oil
tank cars which went up in flames
as the train left the track. Many of
the transients appeared to be trapped,
Nolan declared.
Firemen said, however, 1t was prob
able some of them had escaped injury
and filtered through the crowd that
gathered quickly as the spectacular
oil blaze swept through the wreckage,
which was strewn crafty over the
right of way where the cars buckled
up and turned over or telescoped
wildly.
AS the firemen fought to check the
flames from the tank cars, spectators
gathered near a box car through
which they cut hole to permit two
DhySicians tn reach Pete Riggs ahotIt
rs, of Calhoun, La, who was pinned
beneath heavy wreckage between two
cars loaded with pulp wood.
Riggs right leg was crushed. His
cries of "cut my leg of and get me
out of here" attracted a score of men
to attempt his rescue as the flames
neared him. They worked futilely to
lift a heavy beam and finally doctors
we're summoned.
Riggs at first pleaded for a knife
with which to take his own life.
DR.. c. H. Hill administered the
man a hypodermic and DR.. o. w.
Crosby proceeded with the amputa-
ton. The surgeons small knife
proved Intellectual in the trapped
position, SO an ordinary pocket knife
with a longer blade was borrowed to
complete the operation. Riggs was
taken to hospital without losing
consciousness. His condition was de-
scribed as serious.
Four others, suffering burns or
fractures, were taken to the hospital

14.-Another special session of Jouisi-
ana's oft-convened Legislature ap-
peared inevitable today. this time to
undo some of the work it had pushed
through at the dictation Of Senator
Huey Long.
AS the Long force sought peace with
the White House and anti-Long ele

tator, special session talk was heard
in both camps.
At the same time the possibility
that Longs name would be carried on
in public office arose when it became
known that an attempt might be made
to have his widow accept appointment
to her husbands unexpired term,
which has a year and four months
to run.
Sources close to the leadership said
such a plan had been discussed at

SOFT COAL STRIKE
MONDAY PROSPECT
Producers Unwilling to Meet
Demands. but Negotia-
tionS Continue.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The threat of a soft coal strike
Monday morning appeared larger to-
day than at any time since the Ap-
palachian wage and hour negotiations
started 10 days ago.
Negotiations virtually had broken
down, with producers unwilling to
mands.
A dispute also arose over what Pres
ident Roosevelt had meant in his re-
quets yesterday to the miners and op-
orators to avoid a strike.
Duncan Kennedy of Charleston,
w. Va, chairman of the operators
group, interpreted the Presidents re-
quest as one to extend the present
agreement for Is days.
View Given by Lewis.
John l.. Lewis, president of the
mine workers, said the president
merely asked that the mines be kept
running with no mention of any ex-
tension.
When the coal negotiation commit
tee of % operators and 28 miners met
this morning the operators proposed
that the present agreement be ex-
tended until October /.
The miners voted mo" and the
motion was lost. The miners then
moved that work be continued for
the next IS days and negotiations
continued, with an agreement that
the wages and hours finally decided
upon be made retroactive.
The operators voted down that pro-
posal.
Kennedy then summoned the full
Appalachian Joint Wage Conference
Committee to meet at noon.
A Producers Committee which con-
tends it represents more than half of
the industry urged that the President
appoint Gen. Hugh S. johnson to head
this commission.
Johnson Plans to Quit.
But from Hyde Park, N. Y. came
word that johnson would quit his Job
as director of New York City's w. P. A.
in october. The reason he gave was
that Il got to make some money"
He and Mr. Roosevelt reached an
agreement whereby the former N. r.
A. head would be permitted to re-
turn to private life about October Is.
For 10 days now the operators ana
the United Mine Workers have tried
to get together on terms for a new
wage and hour contract. This old
agreement had been extended four
times in the last six months at the
Presidents request to give Congress
time to act on the Guffey bill to set
up little N. r. A." with a coal
commission for the industry.
Just what this commission could do
to further wage-and- hour negotiations
was questioned by some coal men. Its
principal duty is to supervise price
fixing
johnson spent q good share Of the
Summer Of 1888 arguing and urging
the industry into an agreement on
its code Of fair competition. His out
standing feat, in the minds of many
coal men, was to get substantial
section of the industry in the South
to sign closed-shop contracts with the
United Mine Workers.
