MADRID IS GIVEN
 ANOTHER SCARE

Madrid, Nov. 3-(U.P)-A report that the nationalists intended to try to enter Madrid Wednesday sent thousands of workers from shops and offices today to work on the city's defense lines.
 The nationalist lines were on a front whose advance lines were but seven miles from the outskirts of the capital at the nearest point.
 Again the situation in Madrid had made @ lightning turn from con- fldence to anxiety. Militiamen who had been ready for a big offensive were waiting in their trenches just few miles south of Madrid for a ruthless nationalist attack.
 Fighting began at dawn today with the nationalists on a line that ran westward from Pinto, on the Aranjuez road, through Parla, or the Toledo road; Humanes, on a paralleling road just to the west; Moraleja De En Medic (De En Medio), Arroyomolinos, and Naval carnero, then turned sharply north to Brunette, which is west of Mad rid.
 Manifestoes appealing for courage and support of the government in- cluded the following from the com- munist party:
 Madrid is in danger. The tri- umph of the republic will mean your own liberation. You will own the land. You will cease to be Pariahs. We must all work together"

REV. CERALDL. K.
 SMITH PAROLED

New Orleans, Nov. 3-(UP)-The Rev. Gerald L. K. Smith, Louisiana Share -the-Weal leader, was paroled from jail today, against his own wish, under law passed dur ing the Louisiana regime of his late leader, tke Sen. Huey Long. Smith, three of his associates, and his sec- retary, Preston Elcazal, were arrest ed at a downtown hotel last night after he and former Governor James A. Noe delivered pre-elec- ton blast at the New Deal and the Louisiana administration. He was charged with disturbing the peace, using obscene language, and revil- ing police.
 The law under which Smith and his henchmen were released was one provide this automatic parole of any prisoner held for violating city statutes if not arraigned within two hours. Police became apprehen- sive concerning the arrest as news papermen gathered and city officials and citizens summoned them to the telephone. They assured all that the share -the-wealth organizer already was paroled, but Smith indignantly refused parole and demanded a hearing in court. Delcazal accepted parole so he could get an attorney for Smith and a judge to hear the case,

Regional Director
 Explains Social Act
Lives EIigh-Lights in Benefits From New Security
 Legislation Cites Various Cases of Premiums

who comes under this part of the act at all gets benefits of some kind If he doesn't get benefit paid in monthly installments, he or his family get a lump-sum payment For another example, if the $25-a- week man should die at age 64 after working ten years, at that rate of pay, his family would re- ceive $455. If he had worked 90 years, the family would get $l,- 365. On the other hand, if this man has not worked enough to get the regular monthly checks by the time he is 65, he will get lump sum, or if he should die, his family or estate will get that sum. The lump-sum payment which corres- ponds in a way to the cash value of the usual life-insurance policy, will be 3h cents on every dollar of wages that man earns after 1886.
 "So much for the workers bene- fits. What about the costs? The worker pays one-half and the em- ployer pays one-half, and here is the way of 1t:
 Premiums
 "The taxes, or premiums, called for in this law will be paid by ern- ployers and by workers, at the rate of 1 cent on each dollar of the work CTS earnings, up to earnings of 5000 year. That will mean for the next three years, IS cents week, 25 cents @ week, 30 cents a week or more, according to what the worker earns. In other words, during the next three years, beginning January 1, 1897, the workers premium will be i cent for every dollar he earns and at the same time the employer will pay l cent for every dollar the worker earns, up to 5000 year of earnings. Twenty-six million other workers and their employers will be paying at the same time.
 After the first three years the worker and the employer will each pay half 8 cent more every three years, until finally, beginning in 1949, twelve years from now, each will invest for old-age security, 3 cents on each dollar the worker earns up to 5000 year. This is the most anybody will ever pay"

BRITAIN TO SEEK
TREATY REVISION
Plans to Invoke EscaIator
Clause of Naval Pact for
DestroyerS.
Nv tee Associated Press.

by tI-c AsSOCldteu FIeSS.
LONDON, June 29.-Great Britain
began preparations today to formally
notify Washington and Toxic she
wants to invoke the eScalator clause
of the 1890 naval treaty for destroyers
The action was determined upon
because Of what officials believe to be
the menace of submarines.
Diplomatic quarters understood the
notifications would be forwarded
within few days.
Great Britain recently sought the
consent Of United States and Japan
for the waiver of destroyer limitations
of the treaty which would have per-
mitted her to retain 10000 tons OF
overbuilt ships.
The United States, however, OBJ
pected, informing the British that to
use the escalator clause would be the
proper way to escape the treaty pro-
visions.
Japan's reply indicated the esca-
lator clause on submarines might be
invoked by that nation.
Today Japan formally notified Great
Britain she would not adhere to the
1886 international naval treaty.
The move was authoritatively char
acterized as a serious blow to British
hopes of working out universal naval
treaty.
It was stated that it might jeopar-
die some provisions Of the new treaty
signed by the United States, Great
Britain and France, since certain pro-
visions become operative only If Japan
joins.
The foreign Office announced: 'The
counselor of the japanese Embassy
called at the foreign Office and left q
memorandum in which it was stated
the Japanese government did not. in
the present circumstances, intend tt
accede to the London naval agreement
of 1885,"
