SOVIET ALSO FEARS
FRENCH FASCIST COUP

MOSCOW, Oct. l9.-(UP).-
Demonstrations in support of So
cialist- Communist Spain are in
creasing daily in Russia with mass
meetings being held in cities and
towns by factory workers and
peasants. Collections Of money,
food and clothing are taken at
these meetings-to be forwarded
to Madrid.
The Soviet press is demanding
"the legal Spanish government
be given the right to obtain arms
Government officials are silent
but it is noteworthy they have
done nothing to check the express
sions of the controlled press or
discourage the mass meetings. In
fact, the similarity of editorials
and the number Of the mass meet
ings indicate they may be in
Spired.
Press comment reveals clearly
the alarm felt in Russia that a
Fascist victory in Spain may be
followed by a Fascist coup in
France, thus making possible a
European Fascist alliance against
TIE Soviet Union.

COURT WILL TEST SOCIAL SECURITY ACT
Austrians Face Royalist Plebiscite
Soon; Yugoslav Army will March
fHapsburg Monarchy Is Restored

VIENNA, Austria, Oct. 49,
(UP)-Dr. Kurt Won Schuschnigg,
virtual dictator of Austria, re-
viewed 100000 members of the
Fatherland Front on the former
Imperial parade grounds yester-
day as the Balkans buZZed with
the news he intends to restore the
Hapsburg monarchy if Austrians
so desire.
The demonstration of strength
was intended to parallel the re-
cent Nazi conventions at Nurem-
burg, across the frontier in Ger
many. Several small scale coun-
Recommendations by members of
the Nazi Heimwehr were quickly
suppressed by police.
The Chancellor, who recently
made himself supreme in Austria
by disSolving Prince Ernst Rudi.
ger Won Starhemberg's Heimwehr,
addressed the huge audience with
an appeal for unity. Saturday, in
an unexpected address, Schusch-
nigg startled chancellories by in
timating that a plebiscite will be
held on whether the Austrian peo-
pie wish to restore the Hapsburg
throne and seat Prince Otto as
ruler.
This revelation was a political
bOmbShell among some of Aus
trials neighbors, particularly Ger
many and Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia
has repeatedly declared that if
Otto is brought back to his ia
theirs throne, either in Vienna or
Budapest, "the Yugoslavian army
will march,"
The strong attitude taken by
Schuschnigg indicates he would
seem to have the backing Of Pre-
mier Benito Mussolini on this very
delicate point.

10 PEOPLE ON
SANDSHIP ARE
FEARED LOST
All in Life Preservers, in
Waters of Lake Erie
for Many Hours

CLEVELAND, Oct. 10. (UP),
The bodies of Is men and a wo-
man, all in life preServers, bobbed
in the choppy waters of Lake Erie
today, victims Of gale that sank
the Canadian sand ship, Sand
Merchant.
Seven men survived.
There was only the faintest pos
sibility that any of the - missing
were alive. All authorities had
riven them up and coast guard
vessels searched the lake for the
bodies.
The survivors, who saved them
selves by clinging to life boats for
II hours Saturday night and Sun
day morning, were recovering
from exposure. Inquiry in the
case of the disaster will be under
taken here and probably in Can
ada.
Stories of heroism and fortitude
in the face of torturous death
were told by the seven men. Mar
tin White, 80, second engineer,
could not forget that his 20-year-
old son, Harry, said, "try to save
yourself, dad" then slipped off
the heaving, overturned lifeboat,
exhausted. and sank. Herman
Dault remembered his vain efforts
to keep his brothers, Armos and
Joseph awake. He slapped them,
pulled their hair, talked. Finally
after five hours, their grips
loosened and they were gone into
the storm.
But most vivid of all in the
minds of the survivors was the
tragic fate of first mate Stanley
Drinkwater of Port Stanley, Ont,
and his wife. Together they
chung to an overturned boat, the
giant, wind-laShed waves breaking
over them. Together they went
down.
The Sand Merchant was capSiz-
ed by mountainous waves at 10
p. m. Saturday, II miles north
west of Cleveland in approximate
ly 60 feet of water. She sank
rapidly.
Capt. Graham MacLeland was
picked up with two of his crew
three miles northweS: of the Cleve-
land harbor by the freighter
Thunder Bay Quarries. They
were landed at SanduSky, o. Four
other sailors were hauled aboard
the Marquette and BeSsemer No.
and returned to Cleveland.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 10. (UP).
Boatswain John Hebcrt, 30, of
Port Dalhousie, Ont, was alive to-
day.
He left the sandsucker Sand
Merchant at Point Pelee, Ont,
Saturday night just before it sail
ed on its final voyage. Herbert
was to have rejoined the crew in
Cleveland Sunday.

FLORIDA bum
CROP IS BIG
But State Guard Not Called
to Duty as 1t Was
Last Year
By FRANK MATTHEWS
nited Press Staff Correspondent


MIAMI, Fla, Oct. 10. (UP).-
Florida's famed border patrol,
the one which keeps the winter
playground for Floridians and
tourists who pay-and pay, ended
yesterday its first week of opera
tions for the 1867 season with
indications this years rush would
be- greater than ever.
Twenty-Five men maintained a
night and day watch over the II
arterial highways leading into the
state from the north, and turned
back all apparent indigents who
could show no credentials Of cash
or promises of jobs when they ar
rived in the tourist sections of
the southern portions of the state.
By the end of the week, they
expected to halt during the season
more than $4,000 people who were
not allowed to enter Florida last
year because officials didn't want
them pan-handling cash and soak
ing up warmth for a livelihood at
expense of "natives who live here
during the summer for the profits
of the winter"
1t was considered probable the
increase of undesirables would
accompany proportionately the
bumper tourist crop which all
signs so far have said will break
records during the approaching
winter.
However, it was generally be-
lieved there would not be another
threat of calling out the states
national guard to halt the influx
OF penniless and potentially de-
pendent as there was last year.
Such nationwide criticism fol-
lowed Gov. Dave Sholtz' proposal
to work the guard at the gates"

A. Hoffman, both of Washington,

other group of anglers with Capt.

weight was pounds.
TO GET back to Chesapeake Bay,
hardheads are still putting on

Many of the boats sailing from

catches, but this trip really isn't nee

thing to do If you have plenty of
