LACK Of FUNDS
DELAYS CENSUS
Of BUSINESS
BY J. EARLE MOsER

Oy AIEAASA<AS NAOONAS
Allotments of work-relief funds,
the delay of which has kept MIRA
and other emergency employees
who fear losing their posts in a
constant state OF filters, also pre-
vent the Bureau of the Census
from offering them assistance, &C.
cording to Director James L. Aus
tin.
Mr.. Austins current ambition is
a business census that would cover
every activity in America except
agriculture and manufacturing
which already have their own COM
pilations-and he's going to take
on 5000 to $500 people when he
gets the money.
Although the Census official
continues to hold that insufficient
office space will force him to To-
cate in Baltimore, he said today:
1--WE would take on NRA peO-
ple or anybody else that can
show experience and cOmpe-
tence, but these other emer-
gency projects will probably get
their alIOtments before we do.
They may give it to us in week
or 10 days, or it may take
month or two"
If located in Baltimore, the
business census will receive appl1-
cations there, he said. and Civil
Service status will not be required.

ury Post No. IS, American

REICH MAY NEVER RETURN TO
LEAGUE AFTER CONDEMNATION

When hope of British cham
pionship waned, reports Of Dam
ish, Polish and South American
opposition to. the French demands
came as an unexpected relief.
The press predicted this neutral
opposition" would Illustrate the
French plans, and German pub
lie opinion began to hope the
French move would fail.
Some still hoped one OF the
smaller. states at today's session
might block the resolution. The
council vote must be unanimous:
Some can abstain but one small
state can kill the resolution.
The German people have be-
come convicted of not only the
moral but legal justification of
Adolf Hitler's rearmament' proce-
dure, and the projected league
council resolution appears to
them an irreparable affront.
In, addition, leaders feel the
proposed mechanism for penal
ties is absolutely unacceptable to
Germany, tending to make the
gulf between the league and the
Reich too wide to be ,bridged.

BERLIN, April 17.-(UP).-
Germany may never return to
the League of Nations If the
three-power resolution bluntly
condemning her rearmament pro-
gram is adopted by the league
council today.
Political leaders expressed keen
disappointment at the tone of the
resolution presented at Geneva
yesterday by France, with the
full support of Great Britain and
Italy.
Many quarters openly predicted
that adoption would make it I'M
possible for the reich to return
to the League in the face OF
fresh indication of anti-German
solidarity among the erstwhile al
lied powers:
A few days ago no German au'
thority believed the councils res
olution would name Germany
The Germans felt Britain woulc
bring pressure for a neutral
resolution. '".-s.1'. 'a %.

Shock and Injury of Auto
Accident Held One
Cause of Death

Funeral services for Laurens
Sargent Twyford, of Charleston,
S. c., who shot himself early Sun
day morning, were held on Mon
day at Charleston at the Connolly
Memorial chapel. The Rev. DR..
William Way officiated and burial
followed in Magnolia cemetery.
1t was learned here today that
few minutes before Mr.. ivy
ford's death he had been in an
automobile accident at Riverland
Terrace, Charleston, and 1t is the
belief of examining physicians
that the shock and injuries occa-
stoned by the accident might have
been a contributing cause OF MS
act.
He was alone at the time OF the
accident and was not seen from
that time before his death. An ek-
amining physician expressed the
belief that he probably suffered a
severe shock as we'll as internal
injuries in the accident and that
in all probability this had some
thing to do with his actions a1Ver
