"Most Scandalous Viola
ton" of Law Since World
War, League of Ma
tons Hears
DATA SEIZED FROM
ITALIAN PRISONERS
Plan in London for ARMS
tice in Spain Is Virtually
Abandoned; Both Sides To
Be Implored "To Human
ize the War; Russia De-
laws Conference

Geneva, May ~ (AP)-The Spanish
government today accused Italy of the
most scandalous violation of inter
national principles since the World
War, in a League of Nations white
book" intended to show the Fascist
state as a truly belligerent power"
in violation of the League covenant.
The white book" is a compilation
of documents, one of them purport-
ing to be a "secret" and most urg-
emit" order from the Italian war office
to the corps commanders of the gene
raj staff. The documents allegedly
were captured from Italian soldiers
fighting on the side of the insurgents
in Spain.
Meantime, in London plan for an
armistice in Spain was virtually aban-
doned.
This disclosure was made along
with plans for simple plea to both
sides in the Spanish civil conflict to
"humanize the war;" This was put
in first place on the agenda of the
European non-intervention committee.
Previously truce to permit the
withdrawal of all foreign fighters in
Spain had been suggested by the Brit
ish..
Soviet Russia's members of the COM
mittee yesterday 'rfocked immediate
dispatch of an appeal to Spain when
the non-intervention body tried to ex-
tend the note beyond a mere request
to Spaniards to stop bombing of
open" towns.
A new draft of the note will be con-
sidered by the committee Friday for
final action.
Elsewhere, from Hendaye, Franco
Spanish frontiers, came word to this
effect: Paving the way with dawn
strafing of Basque lines by field guns
and airplanes, insurgent forces on the
southern Bilbao front renewed fierce
attacks to close the Basque capital
"back door" to central and western
Spain.

Yearly; Would Protect
From Droughts

Washington, May 81 (AP)-Secre-
tary Wallace came out fatty today in
support of the proposed agricultural
adjustment act of 1887 sponsored by
major farm organizations.
The secretary urged Congress to
rake it law Eat the earliest possible
date"
Appearing before the House Agri-
culture Committee on the proposed
new AA", laid before Congress last
week by the American Farm Bureau
Federation, the secretary said:
I'm strongly in favor of the prin-
ciples and purposes of the bill"
Wallace said the measure had two
fundamental aims:
Safeguarding of the nations food
supply and protection of the farm in
come"
Officials of the Farm Bureau Fede-
ration have estimated the program
would cost between $25O,000,O00 and
$3.50, 100000 annually.
Wallace outlined features of the bill
as:
1. To protect consumers against
drought disasters such as in the years
of 1884 and 1886.
2. To minimize wide fluctuations
in the prices of basic farm commodi-
ties in the interest of both consumers
and producers.
8. To stabilize farm income as far
as possible at "fair" level.

Charlotte, May Officers
of several counties patrolled all roads
today in a hunt for three youthful
bandits who held up the Cornelius
Cotton Mills late yesterday and took
a $4,000 payroll.
Charlotte police said several hours
after the hold-up the robbers car had
been found abandoned near Moores-
Vile, and the officers expressed be-
lief the men were not far away. They
said the hold-up appeared to be the

putting the money into envelopes.
Whipping out pistols, two of the men
scooped up the cash while the third
remained in the car and kept the

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, May u (AP)--
An orderly strike of more than 7O,OOO
workers called by the c. 1. 0. to en-
force its demand for bargaining con-
tracts crippled steel operations TO-DAY
in five states.
Fires were banked in great furnaces
that had been operating for weeks at
the highest production rate since 1879.
In Ohios Mahoning valley alone
$4,000 workers were idle and the steel
workers organizing committee claim
ed a 100 percent tie-up of plants OF
Republic Steel Corporation and
YOUNGSTOWN Sheet & Tube Company,
vast independent steel producers
which have expressed willingness to
bargain with the c. 1. o. affiliate, but
have insisted signing of a contract
would lead to a closed shop.
In the Chicago area, where zo'OOo
were affected, the strike order from
S. w. o. C,s Chairman Philip Murray
shut down plants of the Inland Steel
Company, third of the independents
against which S. w. o. c. was aiming
in its current chapter of organizing
effort
Fifteen thousand more men were
idle in Ohio plants outside the Ma
noning valley.
Republic spokesman said several of
its mills were operating, but union
leaders countered with claims only
few mon remained in the plants.
The first test of the strikes effec-
tiveness came at II o'clock last night
when the shifts changed. The second
test was at a. m. today, time for

Washington, May q. (AP)- A
joint congressional committee revived
the Presidents long dormant govern
mental reorganization plan today by
deciding on prompt introduction in
both houses of legislation to rebuild
scores of executive agencies from top
to bottom.
Senate Majority Leader Robinson
announced the joint reorganization
committee had agreed to split into
House and Senate groups, each of
which would draft it's own legislation.
The House group was expected to
submit at least four bills designed to
carry out the Presidents program
piecemeal.
A single Senate measure embody-
ing the whole reorganization system
was being drafted by Robinson him
self, who said it would be ready to
lay before Congress within ten days
Elsewhere in the Capitol a storm of
controversy broke on the House floor
over an attempt to write into the ST.
5OOOOO0OO relief bill an amendment
denying relief workers the right to
strike.
Although the proposal by Repre-
sentative Fuller, Democrat Arkansas,
was shouted down, it precipitated a
flood of criticism.
"This is the most ridiculous thing
1 ever heard Of" declared Represen-
tative Maverick Democrat, Texas.
