NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Rumania' s powerful and much-feared Fascist Iron Guard-belonging to the pro- Nazi, swastika- wearing variety of Fascism-iS showing renewed pow CT and aggressiveness in it's anti s e.m tic and anti Communistic campaign r
 For the second time within less than three months King Carol has had to bow his dictatorial head to the. disciples of Hitler and Musso- lini.
 Again Corneuliu Zelea Codreanu, the 36-year-old leader of the Guard and fiery exponent of direct action, is much in the public eye in the role of strong man." although there are other influential factions of Fas- cism in Rumania.
 Threatens Carols Life
 The latest daring of Codreanu, who has twice stood trial in connection with assassinations, has been to serve notice on Carol in the name of the Guard that if the policies of the Rumanian government in volve Rumania in war on the side of Communism or international Jewry, then the ruler and his cab met will pay for it with their lives. Cordreanu appeared to have got away with this extraordinary chal- lenge, too-at least temporarily because the government forthwith arrested some 50 prominent persons who are alleged to form links be- tween Communistic influences in France and Rumania. The threat of the Iron Guard was in reality aimed at the Little Entente-of which Rumania is a member = which is an alliance with Soviet Russia and has been anti German since the war, but has been lean ing heavily towards the left polit- ically.
 s1 Force Cabinet ShuffIe It was only the latter part of Au- gust that the growing Fascist Cor NazD influence compelled Carol to reorganize his cabinet so as to drop his famous Foreign Minister, Nich- olas Titulescu. The latter, a great friend of France and supporter of the Little Entente, had complained that anti-Jewish and pro-Nazi ac- tivities at home had hampered his work abroad. Besides that he was said to fear death at the hands of the Iron Guard.
 Prior to that time the Guard had been fairly quiet after the as sassination of Premier Ion Duca in 1883. Duca had suppressed the organization because of it's anti Semitic campaign, His murder fol- lowed and was laid at the door of the Guard.
 In 1884. the actual killer. Nicho- las Constantinescu, student and two confederates, were sentenced to

life imprisonment. All three were al- legged to be members of the Guard
 Ccdreanu Acquitted
 At the same time Codreanu and 45 others were acquitted after a sensa- tional trial. This was interpreted as a victory for the Guard and its comparatively youthful leader.
 The Fascist Premier George Tata- rescu removed the ban on the Iron Guard and allowed it to resume ac- tivities under the name of All for the Fatherland" It is, however, the same Old Guard-said to be stronger than ever.
 Codreanu has made himself felt as a personality and leader since his youth, many of his followers having been university students. At the outset his activities were largely anti-Semetic.
 Enemy of Lupescu
 One of his earliest sensations was in 1924, when he was only 24 years old. He shot and killed the police prefect of Jassy for suppressing anti-Jewish student riots with a great severity The Hitler of Ru- mania" was acquitted, and this won him many followers.
 Codreanu always has been for di- rect action. The Rumanian police in 1883 declared that they had dis covered a heads shall roll9 list which they attributed to the Iron Guard This list allegedly contained the names of prominent Socialists and Jews.
 Codreanu long has been credited with being an enemy of King Carols lfriend, Madame Mazda Lupescu i She is a Jewess and is said to ex- ercise great influence over the ruler politically.
 As an admirer of the Nazi dic- tator, Codreanu went to Germany in 1883 to study Naziism at first hand.
 The Iron Guard arrays itself like the lily of the field. The uniform consists of black knee-breeches, green flannel shirts, yellow belts and a white arm band with green swastika.

 Perhaps it is needless to mention it, but all these chairmen are Dem ocrats. If seniority governed en- tirely. Such veteran Republicans as Capper of Kansas, McNary of Ore gon, Borah of Idaho. Johnson of California, Norbeck of South Da- kta and others would head many Senate committees, and few sen for Republicans have survived in the House who would outrank many a Democratic chairman.

Frederick W. Puckey of this city, endorsed by Rev. Charles Coughlin of N. U. s. J. fame, received only six votes. One vote, each, was cast for Edward J. Fox and J. l.. Hardy through the write in" procedure.
 No Affects
 Originally 1t had been excepted that Mrs. Ayotte would receive much larger vote and that her total ballot strength would have Q con- siderable effect on the outcome of the contest between Congressman J. Joseph smith, democrat, and Attor. ney J. Warren Upson, republican. The outcome was somewhat disap. pointing to some Union party and the N. U. s. J. followers, but to others 1t reflected sentiment.
 The number of votes obtained by Mrs. Ayotte in the district outside of Waterbury was negligent. In this city she received the following votes: lst district, 10; End, l6; 3rd, 0; 4th, l4; 9th, 8; 9th, 3; 7th, 5; 8th, 8; 9th, g ilth, 27; l2th, g 18th, 1; l4th, 34; 18th, 8; 18th, 3; I7th, IA; 18th, IS; 18th, 2; goth, 8.
 Started Late
 Mrs. Ayotte received considerable support in two or three local pre-. cincts. Her failure to get more votes was said by many today to be due to the fact that her cam paign was started quite late. She was not named the union party's write in" candidate until after the superior court battle between Ter renee J. O'Neill of oxford and. Mir. Puckey of this city. The major parties had already had their cam. paigns well under way.
