orders to let no one pass.
Bayonets flashing. 1900 troops
marched into the Iive-Square-mile
strike center after is persons had
been injured In riots at a Chevrolet
factory. Sheriff Thomas w. Wolcott
admitted his small force was help
less.
The soldiers received their orders
while General Motors executives and
United Automobile Workers Union
officials awaited court decision on
the corporations request for an in
Junction requiring the sheriff TO
compel evacuation Of the plants.
What Governor Murphy Says
Governor Frank Murphy, working
day and night In an effort to ar
range q peace" conference between
the opposing leaders, said Colonel
John 8. Bersey, Michigan National
Guard commandant, had been In
structed to use his forces TO clean
up" the tense situation.
Troops closed the strike area to
all but those having military
passes" automatically breaking the
food supply lines established by the
cit-downers. Machine gun units
commanded the hill tops on both
sides OF the valley overlooking the
General Motors shops.
Officers would not reveal their
strategy, but unofficially 1t was said:
The sit-downers will make their
own choice and can eat If they want
to move out"
$50 Men In Plant
Union leaders said $50 men were
in possession OF Fisher Body plant
!, $50 in Fisher 2, and 1000 in the
newly-occupied Chevrolet number 4.
The Fisher plants have been held by
strikers since New Years eve. The
Chevrolet unit was seized in sur
prise move yesterday.
Apparently no attempts were
planned to interfere at once with the
food supply at Fisher plant No. /,
which Is outside the emergency"
area. The two other shops are in
the vicinity Of Chevrolet No. 8 In
which yesterdays rioting occurred.
The 126th Infantry was ordered
into the strike zone about $50 D. m.
Colonel Bersey then ordered mobili-
zation OF all other units in the state
but the 182nd Field Artillery OF De-
tToit.
Ready Fo rAny Action
Union forces also were modified
for any action that might follow a
decision by Circuit Judge Paul v.
junction plea. Leaders rode through
Gadola on the General Motors in
the area In their sound trucks,
shouting TO the men that well try
TO work out plans to close every
Chevrolet plant in the nation"
landowners in the two Fisher
plants have been fed three times
daily by wives, Sweethearts and
friends. 1t was believed that those
in the Chevrolet plant had only the
lunch boxes which they carried when
reporting for work yesterd y.
One meal - Meat, potatoes, bread
and Soffee was served to the
Chevrolet sit-downers last night be-
fore the GuardSmen moved into the
area. The only food available in the
plant today, aside from whatever
remains In the mems lunch boxes,
was a limited quantity of chocolate
bars peanuts and candy sold at a
small stand at the entrance.

to Start at Cairo February I.
The United States Government has
received an invitation to an interna-

to be held in Cairo, Egypt, beginning
February /, 1888, according to the
Commerce Department..
An organizing committee has been

ments since the preceding interna-
tional conference in Madrid in 1882,
1t was reported by American CONNER
cial Attache James T. Scott at Cairo
The Madrid conference lasted for
90 days, but the Cairo meeting is ex-

devoted chiefly to consideration of
proposed amendments to the general
convention adopted at Madrid. An
estimate as to the period of the con-
ference Is six weeks, it was said.

THE German government assumed
as matter of course that the holy see
would dissociate itself from the cardi-
nails utterances, rectify them and ex-
press its regrets, as has been custo-
mary in international intercourse.
Astonishment Expressed.
ITO its sharp surprise and deep
astonishment, however, the holy see
deemed it fit to leave the Ambassadors
representations unanswered ON the
grounds that the cardinals unsubstan-
tiated and untrue allegations consti-
tuted, at most, a retort in kind.
THE German government is there
fore obliged to conclude that the holy
see leaves the unqualified attacks BY
one of its highest dignitaries against
the German chief of state uncorrected,
and in the eyes of the world supports
them.
THE Holy See will realize that its
unexpected and incomprehensible at
ttude in this matter. so long as it
remains unremedied, has removed the
pre-condltions for the normal course
OF relations between the German gov
ernment and the Roman curia.
For this development the curia
alone bears the full responsibility"

Msgr. Cesare Orsenigo, it was stated

1t was stated
1t was not known whether the
German members themselves had de-
cided not to attend or whether they
had been prevented from leaving
Germany for the event, which some
Vatican circles said might have been
possible in view of Propaganda Min
lister Paul Joseph Goebbels' address
Friday charging a general decadence

1t was regarded as significant that
the Pope's address, on science and
religion, was Cancelled and that no
arrangements had been made for its
subsequent broadcast or publication.
Inauguration Of the academy was
postponed to today, when Cardinal
Pacelli will preside instead of the
Pope.
Even the prelates who gave out the
Official explanation for cancellation Of
the inauguration said the state of
the Pope's health did not arouse any
anxiety.

Plans for Birthday Celebration Are
Cancelled.

CASTEL G0NDOLFO, June 1 (P.-
Pope Plus XI was believed tonight to
be giving serious attention to the
Spanish war crisis after canceling
plans for celebration of his 8Oth birth
day anniversary yesterday.
The official explanation for post
ponement of inauguratio OF the new
pontifical academy, at which the
pontiff planned to make a world radio
broadcast, was that his personal physi-
can, DR.. Aminta Milani, urged him
not to overtax himself.
Some Vatican circles, however, said
the Pope may have been alarmed at
the Spanish situation. They believed
that in the prepared address the
Pope had made some points against
Germany in the Nazi-church con-
troversy.

BERLIN, June 1.-The German
government today formally accused
the Vatican Of endangering normal
relations with the Nazi Reich by fail
Ing to "disavow" the critical speech
OF George Cardinal Mundelein of
Chicago.
A diplomatic note, handed to the
Holy See by Diego Won Bergen. the
German Ambassador to the Vatican,
said:
The Holy See must realize that its
unexpected and incomprehensible at
titude in this matter, so long as it
remains unremedied. has removed the
preconditions for the normal course
of relations between the German gov
ernment and the Roman Curia."
(The Roman Curia is the body of
congregations, tribunals and Offices
through which the Pope governs the
churCh.)
The foreign Office said the note did
not mean that relations with the Vati-
can were now being broken off. Won
Bergen, it was explained, left Rome
on his usual Summer vacation. But,
it was stated, "he will not 60 back
for some time"
Earlier Representations.
Earlier the German government had
made formal representations to the
Vatican against Cardinal Mundelein's
speech, in which he called Adolf Hitler
IAN Austrian paper hanger and a
poor one at that and assailed Ger
man trials of priests and lay brothers
on immortality charges as "atrocity
propaganda
To those representations, it was an
nounced here, Won Bergen received
verbal reply which later was con-
f1rmed in writing. It has not been
published, but obviously it was not
satisfactory to the Germans.
Today's note said:
THE German government in the
Interest Of German-Vatican relations.
was moved to take steps through it's
Ambassador in the expectation that
Vatican circles would be concerned
with averting injury to relations be-
tween Germany and the curia as the
result of Cardinal Mundeleins attacks.

woods beyond the meadow. yowling
blur of speed. pain. and dismay.
Little Mama Cat stared after him,
her amber eyes round and savage, her
tail lashing from side to side. Then
she picked up the corpse of the
muskrat, and began dragging it to-
wards the Barn and the Little Cats.
The Farm Lady stood very quiet,
her own eyes round and wide. Then
she put the milk pail down, and started
for the house. As usual. the Big Good
Looking Man was not there. The gun,
too, was missing
She did not stop for any household
chores, although it was close to the
time when she usually commenced
supper. There was a hard, bright
CLINT in her brown eyes as she stripped
off her faded gingham dress and got
into another, almost as faded, but
possible for street wear. She jammed
on straw hat that had once been
pretty and found a pair of white
gloves, several times mended. Then
she opened her shabby leather purse
and looked at the roll of bills inside
This done, she went briskly out to
the shed which served as a garage
for the decrepit old hivver.
She had just settled herself at the
wheel when she saw the Big Good
Looking Man running towards her
across the meadow.
Hey, beautiful, where are you
going?" he called.
A queer panic seized her. The blood
rushed to her face, and her gloved
hands began to tremble. Could she,
could she go through with it?
He vaulted the poultry yard fence.

alarm Have you had bad news?'

night"
"A Deaf Bird?"
Sure. he was deaf Because he'd
say 'who?' And I'd say, me- and
he'd say 'who?' all over again. Once
he pounced on me but got away"
The decrepit fiivver came chugging
and shaking into the shed. The Farm
Lady stepped out transformed
into new and amazing beauty. She
was wearing new dress and new
hat, and her fair hair was waved and
coiffured becomingly. She looked
fresher. younger. And yet, her brown
eyes were wide and perturbed.
She went rather slowly up the path
into the house, hoping for welcom-
ing hail. But there was silence, COM
plete and profound. The kitchen door
was unlocked and the fire in the stove
had gone out. The rooms were tidy -.
but empty. The gun was missing from
its accustomed place. The Big Good
Looking Man was not there.
She sat down, Imply What if =.
what if he had gone for good? What
would life be without him? That man

and uninteresting he had seemed. No

She sprang to her feet as she heard

porch. The Big Good Looking Man
came in breathless, his face flushed

The Farm Lady did not even look back.
Little Mama Cat sat in the patch
of sunshine that came through the
open Barn doors, and gave one Of the
striped Little Cats an apathetic
tongue wash. Her mind was not on

fixed with worried persistence on the
stretch of woods beyond the meadow.

Then she sprang up, every hair

sight of skulking. tigerish figure
coming slowly and timidly across the
meadow. 1t stopped several times as
if afraid of what might await it. 1t
was limping, the plumy tail dragging
forlornly.

Worthless saw her coming and
crouched down, detected and afraid.
