Oakvile Water Supply

Europe Fears On
 Spain Increased
Continued from Page D

In Spain, the rebels were dom- inant in the north but almost com pleted routed in the southern Cor doba sector. Gen. Emilio Mola, how ever, was driving hard for Bilbao in the north. His troops occupied strategic mountain peaks five miles from Durango and only 16 from Bill bao, on the coast.
 German Made Artillery
 Mola's forces were operating prin- cipally with German-made artillery, planes and tanks.
 Renewed action was predicted at Madrid, where the defenders pound- ed the rebel lines in the outskirts with artillery, in expectation of a fresh assault on the capital.
 At the same time, Europe heard reports that the rebels had aban- doned hope of capturing Madrid for the time being and would con- centrate on sweeping the loyalists clear of the entire north.

from Durango and 16 miles from Bilbao, Loyalist army dispatches re- ported. The move brought the Na- tionalists within heavy artillery range of Bilbao, the Basque capi- tai.
 In flanking movement by which his forces swept around Ochandia- no, thereby avoiding hundreds of Loyalist machine gun nests con- cealed in the rocky crags of sur- rounding hills, Mola sent his in- vading army down the Ochandiano road to the village of Dina.
 A Loyalist air fleet bombed and machine gunned the advancing Na- tionalists and positions around Ochandiano with heavy losses, army dispatches said.

One Suspect Held

StroudSburg, Pa, April 8-(UP)- Police arrested man today who answered the description of hitch liiker sought by New York authori- ties as Robert Irwin wanted for the Beekman Hill triple murders. The man identified himself as Eugene Ferris, 8, Wellesville, N. Y. He was held on a vagrancy charge.
 The police were not certain whether Ferris was the man who had led a travelling salesman to report to New. Tor kinvestigators that he had given a ride last Tuesday afternon to a hitch-hiker who re- sembled photographs of Irwin.
 Ferris said he was enroute to Vir- ginia from Albany, N. r., in search of work. A comparison of his fln- gerprints with those of Irwin showed no resemblance.
 Police in this area were asked by New York authorities to watch all highways for 8 hitch-hiker who, &C., cording to the salesmarl's report, carried a small, well-worn grip and talked queerly of als and sex.
 State Police Sergeant John Carr said Ferris "has been pretty eva sive about everything"

Governor Frank Murphy, who brought Lewis and Chrysler together in peace conferences" that began March 24, following with swift settlement of a sit-down af- fecting 2,4OO employees of the Rec Motor Company. He continued e1- forts today to end strike that has made 11,000 Hudson Motor Car Company workers idle. :.
 Ford Is Interviewed
 While. union members and sym- pathizers gathered in the State Fairgrounds Coliseum in Detroit last night to celebrate the Chrysler agreement, Ford received interview CTS in his Georgia home and de- clsred: well never recognize the United Automobile Workers Union or any other union. We'll deal with individual workers" Union members who might attempt a Sit- down demonstration in his plants, he said, would be lied out" of the factories because we know the men are simply being duped and coerced by the strike leaders" F'' Ss''
 "Those who seized property not their own are in the same category as ,housebreakers.' The 73-yea1 old. manufacturer declared that workers who participated in recent strikes Host" because now they were organized, regimented and without individual freedom. They'll pay money into unions and get nothing in return"
 Lewis Makes, Answer
 News of Ford's statement reached the Coliseum here as Lewis pre- pared to speak. T don't let g little thing like a loose statement by Henry Ford bother me in con- sidering the future of the indus try" the c. I. O. chief said. Men, tion of Ford's name brought boos from the audience. "A lot o1 things might happen" Lewis con. tinued. "The supreme court of the United States some Monday nigh might forget what it's doing ant validate the Wagner labor relation! act, and if the supreme court eve did that quite by accident Henr. would be in a bad way" Lewis Homer Martin, president of the U A. w. and other union leader warned that no immediate attempt should be made to obtain recog milton in Ford plants, but tha nrQaniZerS should concentrate Ol building up union membership, es pecially in the manufacturer River Rouge factory which employ between 8O,OOO and 90,00O workers.
 Deal With Ford Later
 "Well deal with Henry Ford whel that problem is before us and tha is not now" Lewis said. Levi weaved into his address vigorou denunciation of the American Fed eration of Labor, an attack upol three governors who have announce, that they would not tolerate sit down strikes in their states, criti cism of the United Sates senate fo approving a resolution condemnin sit-downs, and a warning to U. A w. members to abide by the term of the Chrysler agreement.

an union recognition.
 The company also has 8 plant at Windsor, Ont, which employees ap- proximately 500 men. This plant was not at once affected.
 Threat To U. s.
 If General Motors of Canada brings in "even one car' from the United States during the strike at the local plant, the United Automo- bile Workers will call another strike in all United States General Motors plants, Hugh Thompson, union or ganizer here, stated today.
 Local union leaders said Homer Martin, president of the United A .tomobilc Works Union, personal ly ordered the strike.
 Martin May Arrive
 One union leader told the United Press he understood there was a good chance" that Martin might fly here this afternoon. Martin, he said, was in direct communication with Hugh Thompson of Detroit, organizer of the local union, who handled negotiation with General Motors officials during the past two weeks, and who is directing the strike.
 Union men said Martin told the local union leaders to "quit fooling" and order the men out today if company heads refused their de- mandS.
 While company officials expressed willingness to meet the men and hear their demands for 8 40-hour week and time and one-half for overtime. they refused, it was under stood, to consider recognition of the union. On that point the issue de- velOped.
 First In Canada
 The strike here was the first call- ed in Canada as a direct result of refusal of employers to recognize the c. I. o. and U. A. w. as bargain ing agents for workers.
 After a five-ho,lr conference yeS- terday between union and company heads, at which Louis Fine of the Ontario labor department acted as mediator, 1t was reported many ma jor points of disagreement had been cleared up. Union leaders said, how ever. that the major point of union recognition still remained unsettled.
 After lengthy consideration of the results, union heads last night com- municated with Martin in Detroit. They informed him, 1t was report ed, that recognition of the union b.. General Motors still appeared u. likely. Orders for the strike fol- lowed early today.

 Gave Suspect Lift
 Inspector Lyons said that trav- cling salesman, who would not re- veal his name,. reported that he had given a lift" Tuesday to hitch hiker who answered a description of Irwin. The man left the salesman at Stroudsburg, gateway to the Poconos. Tn every way this sales mans description tallied with that of Irwin" Lyons said. The sales man reported that his passenger talked for time of the beautiful scenery and then suddenly re- marked apropos of nothing: Art is big and time is fleeting." Then, abruptly, he said: There are just two fundamental interests of man sex and God, and God is the stronger"
 Decidedly Queer
 The salesman thought that state ment decidedly queer, but he dio not place nearly as much signifi- canoe in it as did Lyons. The in- spector recalled that Irwin had made similar statements in inter- views and in conversation with friends.
 The man believed to have been the sculptor and jack-of f-all- trades was carrying small, well-worn grip. the salesman reported. The police already have determined that Irwin's grip, which has not beer found, was much used,
 From study of the suspects past investigators learned that 1rwir might become an itinerant farm hand during the warm spring ant summer weather and that fact Lyons said, made the salesman's re. port from an agricultural distric even more significant.
