LABOR THREATENS
PARIS FOOD STRIKE
40-Hour Work Week De-
mand Pushed With Menace
to City's Supply.
BY the Associated Press.

PARIS, December 30.-Crganized
Paris food workers threatened a gen.
eral strike today unless the govern
ment establishes q 40-hour working
week.
A delegation headed by Leon Jou-
haux, head Of the General Confedera-
ton of Labor, called on Premier Leon
Blum to deliver the warning Of the
food industry workers.
1--WE are ready to launch a general
food strike, if necessary" one member
Of the delegation said
Struggle for Control.
Such q strike would tie up retail as
well as wholesale plants. many Of
which already were paralyzed by in
dividual walkouts.
Both Labor leaders and government
authorities, meantime, struggled to
gain control of new strike armies de-
manding higher pay and shorter
hours
One person was dead, at least six
were wounded and protests were
shouted of rising revolution" after an
outburst of violence
A thousand "sit-down" strikers re-
mained in warehouses and packing
houses Of major Paris food stores after
rejecting q proposed accord among the
government, employers and the Gen.
eral Confederation of Labor.
Employees of some retail stores
agreed to return to their counters.
sources Of supply were cut of and
the capital still was menaced by the
possibility Of food shortage.
Wage Increases Demanded.
The strikes were called to back up
labors demands for wage increases to
compensate for the devaluation of the
franc and consequent higher living
costs.
Premier Blum summoned q delegs-
tion Of food strikers to 4 conference
and informed metal workers their de-
mands would be considered when new
indices OF living costs become available.
The Metal Trades Union ordered its
members to quit work five minutes
early tonight in q warning strike.
Public service workers defied q gov
ernment ban on their demonstration in
front Of the Municipal Building last
night and at least six policemen were
injured in rioting and q Republican
Guard thrown from his mount and
fatally hurt.
The disorders ended after municipal
authorities agreed to receive . dele.

Many of the jeering, cat-calling en-
ployes were subway employees, firemen,

GANDH|CAMPA|
TO L|BERATE INDIA
Negative Policy Forsaken,
Associates Say, in In
dependence Drive.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOMBAY, December 30.-Mahatma
Gandhi was described by close asso-
ciates today as ready to forsake his
negative policy Of non-resistance and
lead India's masses in an active cam
paign for independence from Great
Britain.
Amazement was expressed through
out India at the astute comeback from
retirement the little Indian leader
staged at the Faizpur Nationalist
Congress. regarded as a certain har-
binger Of q new era Of activity.
His impassioned assertions, SHOW
me the way and I'm prepared to 60
back to JAIL" and I'm prepared to be
hanged" were interpreted as the be-
ginning Of new emancipation efforts.
Close associates said his previous
policy, which they described as barren
and destructive, had been replaced by
one of limitless potentialities.
The congress at Faizpur has voted a
boycott Of all celebrations in India
connected with the coronation Durbar
Of King George vi and has refused
support to any war in which the
British Empire might become involved.

TRAFFIC DEATHS
HIT NEW RECORD
37,450 Expected Toll of
1936-NeW York Average
Lowest of Big Cities.

~ the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 30.-The Ma
tional Safety Council said today 1896
will mark an all-time high for auto
mobile traffic deaths in the United
States.
BY the stroke of midnight New Year
eve, the council predicted, the toll will
reach 37,450, or $50 more than last
year.
A5per cent increase in traffic deaths
last month, as compared with Novem-
ber, 1885. said w. H. Cameron. man
aging director, destroyed all hope Of
avoiding an increase over the 1885
slaughter.
The 11-month total for 1896 was
33.7s0. Last year it was 33,340. No.
ven1ber was the seventh consecutive
month in which fatalities exceeded
those Of corresponding months last
year.
Gas Consumption Higher.
Cameron said the only comfort
offered by the statistics lay in the fact
that the accident death rate as based
on gasoline consumption was lower
than last year.
Gasoline consumption through No.
vember, 1886, exceeded that Of the
same period in 1884 by approximately
10 per cent.
The predicted 37,45O deaths for 1896
contrasts with the 1912 total Of S,082
and the 1927 of 1918.
The councils records showed pedes-
trian traffic deaths continued to in
crease, the 1886 total exceeding that
Of last year by per cent. Deaths in
the to IA years age group jumped 10
per cent
New York paced IL States in cut
ting the traffic death toll more than
Z per cent for the first 10 or IL
months of 1886. The Empire State
registered reduction of 10 per cent
through November. Other States
which reported reductions included:
New Hampshire, l3 per cent; Connecti-
cut and Nevada, IL: South Dakota
and Maryland, IL: North Carolina, 10;
Utah, Virginia and New Jersey, g.;
Iowa and Wisconsin, z.
Eastern Seaboard States.
Twelve Eastern Seaboard States
from New England to Virginia re-
ported per cent reduction in the
first IL months of 1886. AS con-
trasted with a national increase of
slightly more than per cent, these
States, the council said, have stand
ard drivers license laws.
Among 13 cities of more than 500,-
600 population, New York continued
to have the lowest average death
rate, the council said. Milwaukee,
Buffalo, Detroit and Pittsburgh had
higher 11-month totals than last year.
November death totals were larger in
Boston. Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit
and Chicago than in November, 1895.
November traffic deaths reduced to
"a the number of cities in the TO-
600 to $4,000 population group with
perfect records.
Cities in the 100000 to 250,OOO
group reported a IS per cent increase

That merry, mad biography OF
"Oiwin" is being shown this week AZ

Erwin Trowbridge is the tale OF .
Mr.. Milquetoast innocently creating
circumstances which eventually In
volve him with professional race track
habitues and blond chorus girls, and
which momentarily leave him In some
bewildering situations.
Trowbridge, who lives in q suburb.
Is very much the average man, only
q bit more dull, and with very little
character. His career Is that Of pro-
fessional and egregiously lousy poet

are exploited until Midas golden touch

Instruments
of Ancient
Date Heard
Stradivarius Quartet
of New York Gives
Program.
.HE sTRADIvARIUS Quartet
of New York gave the second
program in Q series Of eight

THE sTRADIvARIUS Quartet
of New York gave the second
program in series Of eight
i in the Chamber Music Audi
tororium OF the music division Of the
Library of Congress yesterday after
noon. The four members Of the
quartet used the ancient Stradivari
instruments which belong to the Ger
trude Clarke Whittall Foundation at
the Library. An appreciative audi
ence which comfortably fllled the
small auditorium greeted the players,
who were Wolfe Wolfinsohn and
Alfred Pochon, violins; Marcel Dick,
viola; and Ivan d'Archambeau,
violoncellist. They were assisted by
Beryl Rubinstein. pianist, who played
the Ernest Block Suite for viola and
piano with Mr.. Dick.
This ultra-modern composition OF
Ernest Bloch had quite an ovation,
the volume Of applause seeming to be
more than that for Haydns quartet
in B nat, Opus "a. number 3, and the
Brahms quartet in A minor, Opus 81,
number 2. The quartet. which opened
the program with the Haydn number
which was written in 1890, Is a well
balanced group of musicians ap-
parently familiar with each others
work so that the enmemble playing Is
excellent. All the delicacy and
piquance Of this ancient quartet, the
purity and simplicity of the treat
ment by the composer, was clearly
brought out and was marked con-
trast to the breadth and ruggedness
Of the music of Brahms.
The Bloch suite which he wrote in
1919, has many interesting. and not
infrequent phrases OF beauty. which
Mr.. Dick and Mr.. Rubinstein made
the most of, the third movement,
lento, having more continuity than
any OF the other movements. The
contrast of the music of these three
composers was marked in the ex-
treme, the lightness and daintiness of
Haydn, the suavity and finish of
Brahms and the almost crude music
Of the Bloch suite suiting probably
all tastes.
The third program will be entirely
OF Brahms works which the Gordon
Quartet, assisted by Frank Sheridan,
pianist, will give Wednesday evening,
December is. K. B.

CUE AND CURTAIN CLUB
WINS OVER RICE PLAY
University Groups Playing Is
Much Better Than Its
Material.

WELL, Mr.. Elmer Rice can get mad
w at another critic. if he wants to
take the trouble, which he probably
doesn't. It seems back in 1929 Mr..
Elmer Rice wrote play CHATS his
story called "See Naples and Die"
which was presented on Broadway
with Claudette Colbert and Roger
Pryor in the leading roles, but that
was back in 1929, when anything
could be sold.
So last night at the Wardman Park
Theater the valiant members Of George
washington's Cue and Curtain Club
got up on the stage before a hand
some setting (by Lee MarzolD and set
to work with such commendable ef-
fort to make Mr.. Elmer Rice's play
Che says) look like a play, that it Is
not their fault if it did not. See
Naples and Die" has some mighty
clever lines, to be sure-lines which
possibly make it pleasant enough en-
tertainment-but it looks very much
as though Mr.. Elmer Rice looked at
his note book one day, said "My, what
a nice collection Of funny remarks;
I must tie them together" The story
is about q girl who is married to a
Russian prince who gets in the way
when q couple of Rumanians shoot
. guy they do not like and the girl
can then marry the lad she lerves
and he does not have to go to Paris
with the wife of the guy the
Rumanians shot. He should have
gone-in the middle of the first act.
"See Naples and Die" was battled
30 a standstill by the Cue and Cur
tains, however. They gained yardage
time after time through swift dashes
off tackle and clever reverses by Peggy
Gusack "a young lady some director
should do q lot of things with some
day. Charles McVicker swept wide
around the ends any number Of times
for hefty gains. Marilyn Miller and
Betty Emerson ran an interference of
attractiveness that. kept "See Naples
and Die" on its heels, and seemingly
relaxed, but ever vigilant. Hamilton
Colt was a big factor on the defen-
sive play. George Carter. Ruth Brewer,
John Kendrick, Mary Stuart Ware and
Maxine Mitchell performed yeoman
duty in the line. and Director Marvin
Beers Is the lad who should take the
credit for the strategy through which
the Cue and Curtains won a moral
victory over See Naples and Die"
