SEEKING
SHOWDOWN
WITH REICH

LONDON, April "a UN.S).
Quietly France and Britain moved
today to demand an early show
down from Adolf Hitler on his
future intentions regarding peace
in Europe.
With French collaboration, For
eign Secretary Anthony Eden
drafted a QUESTIONABLE that will
be laid before the Reichsfuehrer
in Berlin towards the end of
next week.
Britain wants to know not
only whether Germany intends to
make the long-awaited gesture"
to ease tension over the Rhine
land, but also:
l.. What does Germany look
for In the way Of colonies?
2. When will the Reich re-
turn to the League; and are
colonial possessions essential to
that return?
3. What are Germany's In
tentionS regarding the indie
pendence of Austria, and the
German majorities in Danzig
and Memel?
4. What is Hitler's attitude
towards an air defense pact, and
what sort of two-nation non
aggression pacts does he advo-
cate?
Ambassador Charles Corbin Of
France has been consulting the
British foreign office regarding
the questions that again bring the
Rhineland crisis to the fore. He
has submitted the QUESTIONABLE
to Foreign Minister Pierre Etienne
Flandin, who preached some of
the questions in q radio broadcast
weeks ago. No Rhineland climax
is looked for, however. until mid.
MAY, after the French elections.

bOdy-we didn't kidnap for
ransOm!"
Near the point Of collapse, Alex.
ander MacKay, 40, and Joe Kristy,
27, doomed "snatchers," argued
with guards Of the death watch
today shortly before the hour of
their scheduled double execution
here. They are to be hanged at
10 a. m, P. s. T.
Death for kidnaping-the pen
atty written into the law after the
abduction Of Charles Lindbergh,
jr.-was to be invoked for the
first time in. America when Mac
Kay and Kristy mount the gal
lows. Bruno Richard Hauptmann
was executed as a murderer-not
as a kidnaper.
Hull Appeal Ignored
Unless Gov. Frank r. Merriam
issues a last-minute reprieve, the
double execution will take place
on schedule, Warden Court Smith
said.
Thus far, governor Merriam has
ignored the pleas Of Secretary Of
State Cordell Hull and A. C.
Charlton, British consul general
at San Francisco, that Mackay. q
British subject, be granted q re-
prieve so his attorneys might
check points Of law in an eleventh
hour fight for clemency.
Court Refuses Plea
The original 90-day reprieve
ordered by Merriam last January,
expired today.
Melvin Beli and Harding j. Nc.
CURE. attorneys for Mackay and
Kristy, were unsuccessful in a last
minute effort to obtain q writ of
coram vobis from the State Su-
preme court to halt the execution.
Mackay and Kristy, together
with two other convictS, took part
in the sensational kidnapping Of
three prison board members and
three other prison attaches in q
desperate prison break here on
