ment. Most Of YOU can remember
how the news OF Alma Smith,
drowning hit the street with {
flash and left populace stunned
This year definite program o.
hours of supervision at the beach
will be set up with swimming In
struction one Of the important
functions. Perhaps later program
Of hours will be set UP during
which life guards will be stationed
at the beach. AS the present set ur
Is, the only supervised periods are
those when instruction Is offered
Parents are asked to observe these
instruction hours and to see thai
their boys and girls are swimming
during the supervised hours
Neither the Council nor the Schoo
Board will assume responsibility
for those swimming during unsup
ervised hours.
Now swimming Is one of the
paramount points of this pro-
gram. It Is logically agreed that
everyone should learn TO swim
and to handle themselves In
water. But care must be taken.
Children should swim only
when there Is expert supervis-
sion available. This swimming
program will be the most at
tractive for Harvey believes he
can obtain the services of

taken Junior Life Saving work
under some good instructors.
These boys win probably help

promises to be a big field this
summer.

NEWPATR0L PLAN
Would Establish Safety
Zones for Neutral Ships
in Spanish Waters.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 3.-Great Britain
today laid three-point program be-
fore France, Italy and Germany to
restore the broken naval ring around
Spain.
She suggested
l. That safety zones for neutral
ships be established in Spanish waters
q That the Spanish government
and the insurgent administration be
asked to guarantee protection of war
ships of the patrolling powers.
3. That Britain, France, Italy and
Germany consult Immediately If a
warship Of any of them is attacked
Germany gave no advance warning
to the other powers when her ships
shelled the Spanish government port
Of Almeria Monday in retaliation for
an attack on the German pocket
battleship Deutschland
Then she and Italy quit the in
ternational committee which has been
trying to keep out foreign arms and
volunteers by peaceful measures-su-
pervision Of what went into Spain by
naval and land patrols.
Reports from both Berlin and
Rome we're believed to indicate there
would be no serious opposition to the
| return Of Germany and Italy to active
participation in the non intervention
patrol guarding the Spanish coast.

should they be launched by the
Spanish government.
The cruiser Leipzig and the sub
marines U-28, U-33, U-34 and U-35
were expected to reach secret
rendezvous in Spanish waters today
Two torpedo boats, the Tiger and
the Iltis, it was officially announced,
LETT their home ports today and sailed
for Spain as additional reinforce
ments
Later the Official German News
Agency, Deutsches Nachrichtenburo,
asked newspapers to withdraw the an
nouncement that the Tiger and the
1ltis had sailed, and announced in
stead that parts of the third torpedo

The agency said the cruiser Cologne
will follow soon and thereby the re-
inforcement of German naval forces
in Spanish waters will be completed
for the present"
Position Not Disclosed.
No information has been disclosed
on the position of the German fleet
already in the Mediterranean since it
steamed out of Almeria harbor Mon

Italian Aid Hailed.
Rome dispatches showing the close
cooperation of Italy and Germany,
particularly to the effect that Premier
Mussolini will hold his feet in Span

to NaZi warships, were received with

Cruiser and Submarines Expected in
Spanish Waters Today.

BERLIN, June 3 (P).-An authori-
tative source reported today that
Chancellor Adolf Hitler had dis
patched q feet of German U-boats to
Spanish waters as preparedness
measure" to defeat any Spanish gov
eminent attack with overwhelming
force
Der Fuehrer was said to have de-
termined to be ready for any eventu-
ality in the Spanish crisis, no matter
what action the London Nom inter-
vention Committee decided on in an
sWer to his demand for adequate"
protection of German warships.
This, the authoritative source said,
was the meaning of the rapid REIN
forcement of the Reich battle feet
off the coast of Spain.
Hitler's aim was disclosed to be a
war force strong enough not only to
resist any future attack such as that
last Saturday in which 26 sailors
aboard the cruiser Deutschland we're
killed, but to repel with overwhelming
force even more ambitious attacks,

HOUSE DEBATES
ON TAX PUBLICITY
Members Argue Over Ques-
ton of Making Public
Data on EVaders.
4, the Associate Press.

BS the Associated Press.
House members argued today over
the desirability of making public all
the information disclosed in the forth
coming congressional inquiry into tax
dodging.
The Rules Committee inserted in
the resolution creating an investi-
eating committee, an amendment
which Chairman O'Connor described
as deterrent to publicity"
1t would delete authority for the in
vestigators to make public information
brought to light from tax returns and
similar documents.
Some Representatives. however, said
they would oppose the amendment
during debate this afternoon They
pointed out that publicity was one
of the principal weapons which the
administration wishes to use against
alleged tax evaderS.
Would Not Ban Publicity.
They indicated a preference for
the resolution as adopted by the
Senate in response to President Roose-
velt'S request to check tax lodging
Chairman O'Connor said the amend
nent, although not erecting a rigid
shield against publicity, would more
or less serve notice that this informa-
ton should not be made public"
1t would not prevent disclosure in
open hearings, he added of the names
Of wealthy tax evaders or facts about
their methods or incomes.
The Rules Committee also voted to
delete authorization for the investi
eating committee, should it choose to
do so, turning over its work to Treas
ury officials or employees.
Bill to Be Drafted Soon.
Speaking to the Rules Committee
tust before it amended the resolution
yesterday, Chairman Doughton Of the
Ways and Means Committee said the
resolution was drawn under the Presi-
dents direction.
Il don't want to argue with you"
he said I've talked this over with
the President and Secretary of the
Treasury. If you want to take an
Rntagonistlc attitude, that's your re-
sponsibility."
He said that as soon as the investi-
gators obtained facts iustifying action,
bill would be introduced to curb at
least some methods of tax dodging.
Senators from seven of eight COM
munlty property States Joined mean
while to fight any attempt that may
be made to prevent the filing of sepa-
rate income tax returns by husband
and wife" as mentioned in the mes
sage from President Roosevelt dealing
with tax evasion and other tax losses.
Single Return Fought.
Under community property laws
husband and wife hold an equal right
to income and property. and therefore
the Supreme Court has decided they
may file separate returns.
Senator SChWellenbaCh, Democrat,
Of Washington asserted after the con-
ference that the community property
States would not tolerate any attempt
to force the fling of a single return as
required in dover right States.
Other Senators attending the con-
ference were McAdoo of California,
Ashurst and Hayden of Arizona, Hatch
OF New Mexico, Ellender of Louisiana,
Pope Of Idaho and Connally of Texas.
