EMBARGO HELPS
 DRIVERS STRIKE

Hartford, Conn, September 24.- (UP) - A New Haven Railroad em. bargo on less than carload lots ot freight to and from Hartford offered e serious complication today to the l7-day strike of more than 1000 truck drivers in eastern Connecti- cut.
 The railroad estimated about i20 tons of pickup and delivery freight was delivered here daily and offi- cials said shipments would be con. tinued only If the consignee would arrange for delivery from the freight depots.
 As result of the embargo, Mayor Thomas J. spellacy called a confer. ence with representatives of the Truck Driver, ChauffeurS and Helpers Union in an endeavor to reach an agreement on demands for a 10 per cent increase In pay, Q closed shop and an extension Of the running time between New York and Hartford.
 Since the beginning of the walk out warehouses in the city have been overlooked with undelivered consignments. Foodstuffs, however were permitted to pass through picket lines unmolested.

CROSS BURNS AT
 REPORTERS HOME

Pittsburgh, Sept. 24-(U.PJ - A cross was burned today near the home of Ray sprigle, newspaper re- porter whose series of stories re- vealed that Supreme Court Justice Hugo L. Black allegedly Is life member of the Ku Kiux Klan. Sprigle, of the Pittsburgh Post- Gazette staff was not ct home when the cross was burned. As no one could be found who admitted seeing the blaze, 1t was not known whether hooded figures isnited the cross. t.r
 The charred framework, about i6 feet high and six feet wide, was found shortly after daylight not far from the home of Sprigle in Moon Township. A tiny wooden obelish had the black letters:
 "Kastigate the Kallous Kalum- inator Ray Sprigle." 1
 The lettering was so. arranged that XXX appeared together.
 Police of Moon township, and Coraopolis, once reputedly Klan stronghold, said they knew nothing of the demonstration.
 5prigle's articles prompted . rla- tionai debate on whether Black should be allowed to serve on the U. 6. supreme court because of his purported kian aftiiliatior.

President Speeding
 Through West States
May Be Ignoring Senate Democrats Who Opposed
 tiim-Chief Executive Getting Big Welcome

one of the supreme court bill rebels, would be invited. O'Mahoney's plans were not learned but MT. Roosevelt's associates said no one had been in- vited to confer with him. O'Mahoney passing through Omaha this week, said he was hurrying home to "wel- come the president to Wyoming"
 MT. Roosevelt's associates were jubilant as the special sped onward from noisy Iowa welcomes toward states of prominent bolters. Some of their enthusiasm appeared to be based on evidence that hope of fur ther federal relief spending or loans may be out.pulling the supreme court or the Ku Klux Klan for pop ular mid-w western attention.
 Enters Wyoming
 MT. Roosevelt enters Wyoming to- day, home state of OMahoney, who last month challenged the admin. istration to "get out their knives and Tomehawks, because we are go- ing to have a real battle" He will make his first regularly scheduled appearance on this trip !n Cheyenne at 9:3O a. m. (MST), and stop also at WeRdover, l:46 Q. m. tMSl) and Casper, 4:30 D. tn. (MST).
 No speeches were scheduled for Iowa and the special went through Nebraska ct night, MT. Roosevelt having retired when the train reached Omaha at l0:43 D. m. (CST) MT, Roosevelt got his first big ovation in Marshalltown, Iowa. with 0 promise that the government could stabilize farm crop prices without going bankrupt. He em. phasized that he was Ion a trip of inspection"
 There was one shout of what about Wheeler" In Iowa and on. other promising to "ovte for Roose- welt In l940".
 O'MahOney Charges
 OMahoney charged in the Senate on August 2i that MT. Roosevelt was planning a continental trip, visiting Nebraska, Wyoming and Montana, but Ignoring himself, Sen. Burton K. Wheeler, D. Mont, and Sen. Edward R. Burke, D. Neb who comprised the high command of Democratic opposition to the su- prece court reorganization bill.
 Just who ignored who promises to be a subject of dispute. But the facts are that Burke did not appear aboard the train although Gov. Cochran was train guest yester. day for almost 12 hours en route from Chicago to Omaha.
 oMahoney has been less promi. nently associated with criticism of the New Deal since the Judiciary bill was scuttled and he. unlike Burke, is recorded in favor of con- firmation of former Sen. Hugo L. Black as an associate justice.

Battle of the merit system back CTS to force a referendum on their petition before. the voters October 5, was, fought nearer to a court deci- sion today when Judge Edwin c. Dickenson of the superior court, as- signed Tuesday morning for hear ing on the corporation counsels an- swer to the writ of mandamIS.
 On request of William w. Gager, of the merit plan legal staff, the judge said that he would hear the matter as the first case Tuesday.
 Legal Pressure
 Backers of the merit plan thus att tempted further legal pressure against the defendants of the writ of mandamus in spite of the aSsur- ance of Corporation Counsel Charles s. O'Connor that he would file an answer Monday. The corporation counsel and Claims Attorney Vim cent A. Scully told the court Tues. day that the city's answer would be made not later than next Monday.
 At that time William w. Gager and Frederic c. Smedley counsel for the merit system, plan, pleaded for nasty action on the city's part to allow them opportunity to try to force the referendum before the voters October 5.
 Checking Names
 The corporation counsel request ed the court for time to check names on the petition for the merit proposal referendum. The city's counsel told the court that neither his office nor the boar2 of alder men had checked the names, alleged to number 5000, to see whether they are bona flde registered voters.
 It is common comment among both supporters and opponents of the merit plan that a number of the names, estimated at more than 1000, are Implications. The corpo- ration counsel did not 90 into this aspect of the matter but is expected to file answer to the alternative

Af M Landon Giues Greeting To President
But It Is in the Form of Challenge-he Wants
 Roosevelt to Submit Court to People

ership's attitude toward such prob lens. But his desire for progressive and liberal leadership in the Re- publican party-which would attract Democrats opposed to the Roosevelt policies-remains firm. >
 He recognizes both the difficulties of changing the Republican name and the obstacles to attracting southern Democratic support under the old label, but believes that the time has not yet come for such de- ciSions.
 Friends of Landon, cognizant of the criticism directed at conduct of his presidential campaign, believe that the campaign helped lay the groundwork for defeat of President Roosevelt'S court program in the last session of congress. On that point the former governor was silent but he does believe the campaign made, 1t clear that the issue had not been put up to the people.
 Roosevelt Made It Clear
 By repeatedly demanding that MT. Roosevelt state whether he in- tended to interfere with the supreme court--and getting only silence on his part and indignant denials from his supporters-we made 1t clear and unquestionable that he was not seek ing a mandate from the people to change the court" Landon said.
 Most of the democrats who op. posed the plan took advantage of that groundwork to emphasize that the president had no mandate from the people, Landon's friends recalled
 Landon expressed satisfaction with what he considered the gains made by the small republican forces in congress during the last session and he warmly praised their actions throughout the court fight.
 Cooperation Helps
 They accomplished @ great deal by cooperation and by judicious si- lence," he said. "In some ways, the court controversy has been highly beneficial to the country.
 Tt was the first great constitutions al debate since the Civil war and 1t served to educate many Americans and to remind many others of the principles on which our government was built. There were many thou sands of our foreign born popula- ton who had never clearly under- stood the differences between our system of checks and balances and the European systems of govern ment. And there were just as many American who had never had those same principles brought home to them. 's
 "They have a clearer picture of the reasons for success of our gov- ernment now"

 Aboard President Roosevelt's Spe- cial Train, en route to Seattle, Sept. M.-(UP)-The president enters the northwest today on q schedule that seems certain to provoke charges that he is wilfully ignoring senate democrats wh ohelped defeat his su- preme court reorganization bill.
 The question arose first in con. nection with Sen. Edward R.. Burke, d., Neb., who did not accom- pany Gov Roy Cochran of Nebraska aboard the train in Chicago or ap- pear during brief operating stop In Omaha.

 Topeka, Kans., Sept. 24.-(UP)-- Ali M. Landon greeted President Roosevelt's invasion of the west to- day with challenge that he carry the judiciary fight to the people-and take 8 licking.
 "The President Is now in the position of being unable to retreat or to go forward without suffering serious losses in his influence with the people and in his control over congress-" the former governor of Kansas and l936 Republican presi- dental nominee said,
 T hope he will put the question of enlarging the supreme court up to the people. That, at least, is the fair and democratic thing to do. And If he does, he'll take licking 7
 Keeps In Touch
 Sitting behind big desk at a window high up over Topeka's main street, Landon as titular head of the Republican party is keeping in touch with national politics. He Is convinced that things are looking up for his party.
 A year since the l936 political campaign has made slight outward change in Landon. Ills face is . little fuller, a little more tanned. His graying hair still tumbles across his forehead, his loosely -knottcd necktie still refuses to stay in place.
 The former governor in the last year has broadened his grasp of national affairs. has pressed the re- building of the Republican party and has striven for the subordina- ton of personal interests to the interests of the party. How far that program has succeeded, only the 1888 elections will show but Landon believes the effects of the strategy already are being felt. He expects the congressional elections next year to result In heavy gains for the party.
 Great Dissa tisfactiOn "The letters I have received show that there Is great, dissatisfaction with the administrators program" he said in reference to the possibil- ity of a coalition with ant-Roose- welt Democrats. This is especially true in the south.
 If the president goes ahead with his indicated program these dis satisfied clements will split of. If, on the other hand, MT. Roosevelt fails to go ahead with his program, he will lose the support of that ele- ment which is now backing his plans and he will lose his hopes of regaining control over congress Once congress sees that he has been forced to turn back the president will never be able to regain com- mand."
 No Comment on Coalition
 Landon declined to comment on the possibility of a coalition with conservative Democrats in the l940 campaign, remarking that develop ments would have to guide the lead
