Claims 100000 Army Can
Be Raised in Few Hours.
Returns to Rome.
BY the Associated Press.

AVELLINO, Italy, August 31.-Pre-
mier Mussolini returned to Rome to-
day after reviewing with King Victor
Emanuel 10000 of the 5000 900 troops,
which he told the world we're under
his instant command.
The marching soldiers concluded the
annual military maneuvers in which
picked troops and the Italian high
command participated.
I'VE always, in the course Of a few
hours, and after simple order. can
mobilize 100000 men," he told cheer
ing thousands who crowded the town
square here yesterday.
Diplomatic quarters interpreted his
declaration to be aimed against two
recent actions by Adolf Hitler in Ger
many and Joseph Stain in Russia.
The first, they declared. was the
Reichsfuehrer's extension Of the mill
tary training period in Germany from
one to two years.
The second was the Soviet dictator's
statement the Russian armies must be
prepared to march at a moments
notice.
Two additional interpretations were
read into II Duce's declaration by OBJ
servers, who viewed the Italian policy
as possibly resulting from the growth
Of socialism and communistic influ-
ences in France and Spain.
To Defend Ethiopia.
Further, these quarters believed, the
statement was a reaffrmation of Mus
solini's determination to defend his
country-including the newly acquired
territory in East Africa-against
whatever threats might arise.
The Italian premier commented di-
rectly on the victory Of his troops
achieved in Ethiopia, asserting:
For this reason, but not only for
this reason, will we reject the absurd
ity of eternal peace. which is foreign
to our creed and to our temperament"
He characterized the World Disar-
mament Conference as catastrophe
failure" took note Of IAN armaments
race already under way and irresist-
ible from this time on" and proposed
| this order for Italians:
I'VE must be strong. We must be
always stronger. We must be so strong
that we can face any eventualities
and look directly In the eye whatever
may befall."
Audience Enthusiastic.
His remarks to the masses Of SOL
diers and townspeople drew thunder
GUS applause, which ended in a voci-
ferrous demonstration when he asked:
Were old accounts settled Gin
! Ethiopia)?"
A great shout of "yes!" arose from
the crowd.
"And have we marched straight
ahead up to now?"
The audience responded with an
other loud chorus of "yes!"
The dictator concluded his declara-
ton with the promise I'VE shall do
likewise tomorrow and always"
Mussolini's address was the opening
event of military review before King
Victor Emanuel today, when parade
was planned on the plains Of Vol
turara. The dictator said the review
would include $4,000 men, 200 tanks
400 cannon, 400 mortars, 300 machine
guns and $500 armored cars.

a sort of caretaker for his place whose

Tom is going around these days la

other man can get into on the same
amount of liquor.
He came to Washington the other
night to make the rounds, and when
he had finished, the only means OF
transportation to his country home
was a taxi. It was extravagant, but
Tom was in an extravagant mood, Sc
out he went in the cab.
The ride had gone on for some
time when Tom suddenly awakened,
pointed to a rather large house, set
back plutocratically from the high
way, and said:
That's my house."
1t wasn't his house, though, as Tom
discovered when he was awakened
shortly after by the screams of the
county sheriff's daughter who. COM

bed.
The humiliation of it all has turned
Tom into a tee-totaler, if only pro

DETROIT, August 31-Unusual
precautions were taken today to pre-
vent any member Of the Black Legion
from being on the jury which will try
II men charged with kidnapping and
killing Charles A. Poole. Membership
Of the order in Wayne County has
been estimated as high as 10000
Circuit Judge Joseph A. Moynihan,
announcing that opening Of the trial
would be postponed until Tuesday,
said the prospective jurors will be
asked a question never before asked of
a panel. 1t is:
"Are you now or have you ever been
a member Of the so-called Black Le-
gion or any other organization with a
ritual favoring violence or law VIOLA
tion?"
Judge as Questioner.
To speed selection Of the jury, Judge
Moynihan said he would ask all the
questions himself.
Floyd M. Graham, one Of the de-
fense attorneys, has submitted ques-
tions which include:
Have you any prejudice against
any one who might be a member of
the Black Legion?
Would the fact that any one Of the
defendants was a member of the Black
Legion interfere with your findings in
this trial?"
The defendants are charged with
executing" Poole, young w. P. A.
worker, last May IL, because he had
been accused falsely Of wife beating.
Examination Of 25 men charged by
the grand jury with criminal syndi-
calism in connection with an alleged
Black Legion plot to seize the Federal
Government; a conspiracy to murder
Martin H. link, Highland Park city
commissioner, and Arthur L. Kings
ley, Highland Park publisher, and as
sault on George Washer. Highland
Park Department Of Public Works
employe, were postponed because OF
the Poole trial until September 81.
oCahNh AOT SOhSi dCtOfs
The continued search for Virgil F.
(Bert) Eff1nger. Lima, Ohio, con-
tractor, who is among the group
named in the syndicalism indictment,
shared interest with the approaching
Poole trial. Prosecutor Duncan c.
McCrea charges that Efhnger is the
national commander Of the night
riding organization.
Routine police inquiry into the kill
ing uncovered the existence of a
terrorist band whose membership was
ruled by fear and whose activities,
investigators later charged. included
conspiracies to kill political enemies,
foggings. kidnapings, arson and even
plotting against the Federal Govern
| ment.
Among the defendants is Colonel
Harvey Davis, charged with giving the
order for Poole's death. He and five
others are accused of standing about
while Chunky Dayton Dean, two-gun
"executioner," fired five bullets at
Poole from so close that he didn't [
| have to aim" Dean has pleaded
| guilty to a murder charge and is
awaiting sentence.
Six to Waive Trial.
Bernard w. Cruise, defense attorney
said six defendants who were not at
the scene Of the killing would waive
jury trial. Selection of a jury in
Circuit Court, scheduled to start to-
morrow, may be impeded by the fact
the defense will have 24o challenges
and the prosecution $50.

Senator Minton CD Of Indiana
today plunged into the whirlpool
Of words and political opinion fol-
lowing Al Smiths blistering de-
nunciation Of the Administration
at the American Liberty League
dinner.
In a sarcastic reply to cir
cular letter from John j. Raskob,
director Of the league, asking him
to Join the league, Minton said:

to talk to about balancing the
budget. How would that speech
have sounded down under the
Brooklyn Bridge, made to the
boys and girls from the side
walks Of New York, especially II
he had told them the rest Of the
story, that to have balanced the
budget would have taken from
them their last crust Of bread?"
Defending the Administration
against Smiths charge of social
ism and communism, Minton said:
II believe in this AdminiStra-
ton and / am no Socialist or
Communist hope you will
pardon me for saying so, but !

Montreux, Switzerland, July l0.-- (UP)-French, Russian and Ru- 1nanian attacks on British policies regarding the strategic Turkish straits halted the DardnelleS confer- encO of Lausanne treaty signatorieS today. Plans for Q plenary session were held iti abeyance until Mon- day. Committees were appointed to undertake c solution of the prob- Iems which first arrayed the goviets against Britain and later caused France and Rumania to lineup with the Russians. 4 threatened cabi- net crisis in Bucharest gave Ru- Inanian Foreign Minister Nicholas Tituieson excuse to leave the cofl- ference after he directed vigor- ous attack against the British.
 Thus far the conference, In which Italy has refused to partici- pate, has been deadIocked on Rus- sia's refusal to agree to permit large British naval forces to operate ir the Black Seq. Now France Russia and Rumania have demand cd the right to send aid to each other through the Turkish straits in event of war with Germany. The conference was called to act on Turkeys demand for the right to refortify the Dardanelles, other Turkish straits and the Sea of Mar mora.
