Coast Maritime Workers
Nav Decide to Strike

a UTHORITY of the national
maritime commission to de-
clare permanent truce in current
contract controversies is challenged
by the negotiating committee for
the Pacific coast maritime unions,
and members of those unions are
instructed to vote on a proposal for
a coast-wide waterfront strike.
The maritime commission had
peremptorily demanded that the
Pacific coast ports be kept open
while it sent an investigator to San
Francisco to discuss the conditions
which have long threatened to bring
on industrial warfare.
In kilograms to President Frank
lin Roosevelt and the commission,
the committee said the commission
had caused great unrest among
the workers through its participa-
ton in negotiations between ship
owners and dock and shipboard en-
ployees.
The seven unions, claiming a
membership of nearly $1,000 work
ers, are the International Long
shoremen's association, the Ameri-
can Radio Telegraphists' associa-
ton, the Marine Engineers Benefi-
cial association, the Masters, Mates
and Pilots of America, the Sailors
Union of the Pacific, Marine Cooks
and Stewards, and the Marine Fire
men, Oilers, Watertenders and WHIP
erS' association.

ately gave it close study. Some were
disposed to label the maneuver "po-
Etical expediency," but experts gen.
orally said it was a logical step in
the sequence of monetary events but
not positively in the direction of
sterilization.
The new plan, Mr.. Morgenthau
said, differs from the old gold stand
ard in that it will permit the export
or earmarking of gold only to and
between governments instead of
private business institutions and
traders.
''The door is wide open," said
Mr.. Morgenthau. Were not going
out drumming up business, but we'll
welcome all other countries which
want to participate. !"
According to the Treasury depart
ment, the United States alone will
announce selling price for gold.
France and England will keep their
selling prices secret, though there
will be free flow of gold between
the sterilization funds of the three
nations.
1t was believed that Great Britain
was the prime mover in this new
pact. As one commentator put it:
"The agreement was made neces-
Sary when France debased her cur
rency, and placed an embargo on
gold exports, because Great Britain
suddenly discovered that nowhere in
the world was there left a fixed
yardstick against which to measure
international commitments and ham
die international exchange"

Five Groups Accused by
Trade Commission

CHARGES filed in Washington by
~ the federal trade commission
accuse five trade associations of at
tempting to corner the automobile
parts and accessories business. The
groups, which were ordered to show
cause why they should not be COM
PEELED to cease their alleged COM
bine, are the National Standard
Parts association, Detroit; the Mo
tor and Equipment Wholesale as
sociation, Chicago; the Automotive
Trade associations of Greater Kan
sas City, Mo-; Mississippi Valley
Automotive Jobbers association and
the Southwestern Jobbers associa-
ton. Their officials also are de-
PENDANTS in the suit.
The commission points out that
the associations represent a Sub
stantial proportion of the total vol
ume of business of all manufacture
ers and jobbers of automobile parts
and accessories throughout tn e
United States" The commission
charges that these groups "have
combined together with others joint
ly, preventing the establishment of
new and additional competitors,
and with executing certain agree
ments and conspiracies among
themselves and with others"

Leopold said. ''In any case our en-

Japan mot Fortifying"
Isles Under Mandate

TOR some time there have ap-
peared in print stories about
how Japan was establishing air and
submarine bases in the former Ger
man islands of the South Pacific
over which she holds League of
Nations mandate. It has been ex-
pected that the leagues mandate
commission would investigate these
reports, and now Japan seeks to
forestall such action by formal
report to the league in which she
asserts she has mo Notifications,
military or naval bases" in those
islands. The Toxic government says
it is scrupulously observing that
part of the mandate which forbids
the use of the islands for military
purposes.
Following establishment of a
south seas bureau in April, 1882, all
Japanese armed forces and men of
war have been withdrawn gradually
from the islands, the report says,
adding that the natives of the is
lands never h ave been subjected
to military training.

will abdicate in favor of his brother,
the Duke of York, and marry the
attractive woman who has shared
so much of his time in recent
months. In support of this rumor
is the reported fact that plans are
being made for renting the farms
of the Sandringham estate in Nor
folk, which is the kings private
property. Also, there is story
that this estate may be sold to the
Aga Khan, the immensely wealthy
spiritual head of the Ismaili sect
of Mohammedanism.
Should Edward give up the throne,
it would eventually be occupied by
Princess Elizabeth, eldest daughter
of the Duke of York, and this sue
cession would be decidedly popular
with the people of England. The
abdicating king might revert to the
dukedom of Cornwall, which pro-
vides net income of about $3.50, 900.
There is nothing in British law to
prevent the king from marrying
whomsoever he pleases, but no ruler
of the country since Henry VIII has
welded a commoner. Court gossip
in London says that Prime Minister
Baldwin and the archbishop of Can
terbury recently appealed to Ed
ward for greater discretion in his
relations with Mrs. Simpson and
were holly rebuffed by the king.
English newspapers imposed on
themselves a voluntary censorship
in this affair, but it has been broken
by the Sunday Referee which prints
an article declaring the king may
marry by spring." that this would
result in postponement of the coro-
nation, and that tradesmen have
been insuring themselves against
such a delay.

Russia Using Spanish War
70 Eo,,,ort D;ccord

to Foment DlScord
g OVIET RUSSIA made a second
y determined effort to aid the be-
leaguered government of Spain,
and sustained second rebuff. Ivan
Maisky, Russian ambassador to
England, handed to Lord Plymouth,
British chairman of the non-inter-
vention committee, virtual ulti-
matum demanding immediate con-
vocation of the committee to con-
slider blockading the coast of Por-
tugal against arms shipments des-
tined for the Spanish insurgents 1t
was understood in London that Lord
Plymouth replied that if the propo-
sition were seriously made, it should
be presented through diplomatic
channels to the governments con-
cerned. The Russian plan was for a
blockade by English of French war
ships.
Observers in Europe are con-
WINGED that the Soviet government
does not expect the powers to agree
to any such blockade as is sug-
gested, but is chiefly interested in
stirring up discord.
Leaders of the Fascists were re-
ported to have planned a steady,
steam-roller advance on Madrid,
and this offensive was already under
way. The defenders of the capital
were hastily building Notifications
in the suburbs and surrounding the
city with trenches. In Oviedo the
dynamite-armed force of loyalist
miners was still battling with the
garrison and rebel troops sent to
the rescue were about to enter the
city.

It's smart, in many Vienna suburbs,

STATE RESTS
IN DIE TRIAL

SNOW HILL, Md, Oct. 24.-The
state rested it's case last night
after seven hours of examination
and croSsexamination failed to
shake William H. PoWell'S denial
of the murder Of Charles Die.
Powell told the jury he was liv-
ing with Mrs. Die. who was es-
tranged from her husband. in a
Crisfield apartment. He said Die
came to the apartment one night
last November i'll from drinking
and suffered a fit. He added that
Mrs. Die found the body of her
husband lying dead in bed the
next morning.
Since Mrs. Die was killed in an
automobile accident last summer,
= the states chief witness is Charles
Die, son of the deceased pair. He
testified yesterday that Powell and
Die quarreled over the formers
attentions to Mrs. Die, and that
Powell crept up on the bed where
Die lay and struck three blows
with a chiSel. Four other Wit
nesseS, however, testified that
Charles told them his father died
of overdrinking.
The case was being tried in Snow
Hill after two changes Of venue.
