Police Baffled
By Gold Brick

FLORENCE, Italy, Nov 90. -
CUPl. An ingot of pure gold
has baffled Italian police and
hampered the liquidation of two
cases of robbery perperated here
last summer.
Several months ago a band of
thieves broke into Villa Marmagli-
ano, mansion of Mrs. Beulah
Branch. widow of q Chicago bank
err, for many years resident of
Florence. They carried off money,
silverware and jewels for a total
value OF more than 100000.
"A short time later another theft,
the traces of which had strange
resemblance TO the one at Villa
Marmagiiano, occurred in the
palace Of Goffredo yisconti, an
eccentric 90-year-old multi-mil-
lionaire of Florence.
FLORENCE JEWELER &C.,
ARRESTED
Police put their ablest detrc-
tiveS on the case and after four
months arrested a prominent jew
eler of Florence, Sestilio Giannini,
on charges of receiving stolen
goods.
Following Giannini's confession
police captured Otello Balzani,
leader of a band of half a dozen
thieves including his 26-year-old
mistress, Yaleria Uecifiti. Police
have rounded up the entire band
which now is awaiting trial in the
Murate jail of Florence.
INGOT OF PURE GOLD
In the home of a member of
the band, Angiolo Cini, police
found and ingot of pure gold
weighing about $50 grams.
Cini confessed that part Of the
gold bracelets and EARRINGS stolen
from Villa MarmagliaRo had been
melted together with rings and
other jewels stolen from Wis

Wants Liberals Elected

M OST of the Presidents radio
ASA speech was frankly political.
He declared himself the leader OF
the liberals and held that, as such, it
was his privilege to intervene in
state primary and election cam
paigns for the purpose of insuring
the defeat of those whom he char
acterized as conservatives, the OPP
ponents of his policies.
This aroused the indignation OF
many Democratic statesmen like
Senator'S Burke of Nebraska and
King of Utah.
Senator King asserted the Presi-
dent should not use the great advan-
tage he has in controlling the purse
strings of the huge spending pro-
gram. people who have fought
for the Democratic party for great
many years do not like interference
in their state affairs by outsiders, "
he said. 81 do not believe the
President should NEEDLE in the pri-
mary elections of the Democratic
party or any other party"
General opinion was that Mr..
Roosevelt had widened the split in
the Democratic party and by his
words had placed the stamp Of his
approval on the attempted purge"
directed by Corcoran, Cohen and
others of his advisers.

economic and industrial life. In fact,
he said, no country in the world
had as yet worked out method for
dealing with the most acute unen-
ploynent situation in the history OF
the world.
Z He noted that public works ex-
penditures had worked better In
Sweden than in this country, be-
cause the Swedish government had
been able in recent prosperous
years to put on heavy taxes and pay
off its borrowings. He said the
Swedish method was being given
close study. The President warned
that the prosperity which vast out
lays for rearmament appeared to
have brought to European nations
was unsound. When the munitions
plants close down, he predicted, the
nations of Europe will find them
selves weaker in an economic sense
than ever before. No nation, he
argued, could spend its way back
to prosperity by laying out vast
sums in unproductive goods like
weapons of war.
All federal spending agencies re-
ceived instructions to launch the
big spending push July l, Mr..
Roosevelt said. Funds will pour
out through the Works Progress adj
ministration, the Public Works ad-
ministration, the Civilian Conser-
walton corps and the Reconstruction
Finance corporation.

he warned, Republican gains would
be reduced by half.
Rep. Joe Martin of Massachusetts,
and Sen. John Townsend of Della
ware, chairmen, respectively, of the
house and senate G. o. p. campaign
committees, have demanded allot-
ment of funds from the national
committee and exclusive control of
their expenditure. Hamilton has re-
sisted these demands.
Representative Bertrand Smell of
New York, Republican leader in the
house, told the committee that he
intended to retire from public life
and would not seek reelection this
fall.

Italy Checks Franco

NIRGINIO GAYDA, noted editor
v and spokesman for the Fascist
regime in Italy, declared that Italy
had advised Franco, leader of the
Spanish insurgents, to use "modera-
ton" in his efforts to prevent Brit
ish and other foreign ships from
bringing supplies to government
Spain. Gayda said, however, that
Italy approved the bombing of YES
sells carrying contraband, but dis
claimed any Italian responsibility
therefor.
Representations by the earl of
Perth, British ambassador to Rome,
had opened the way to an agree
ment to end the bombings. Musso-
lini was reported as ready to act
only to spare Prime Minister Cham
berlain from embarrassment.
London dispatches said Great
Britain, France, Italy and Germany
had agreed to split the cost of with
drawing foreign troops from Spain.
Russia refused to pay full share
of the expense, estimated at 10 mil
lion dollars.

ganization of the plant by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor teamsters'
union. At the insistence of the ma
tional labor relations board, the
creamery had just agreed to accept
the union as bargaining agent and
not to oppose recognition further.
N. S. Clark, Milwaukee regional di-
rector of the labor board, had
agreed to withdraw charges of un-
fair labor practices against the
company.
Clark said later that all offers
toward a compromise with the
creamery had been withdrawn. The
farmers who took part in the DEM
onstration had outlawed themselves,
he said, and declared he would ask
the Washinton office of the labor
board to prosecute them.

Sions of Compromise

THERE are distinct indications OF
L compromise and cooperation in
the American picture, and hopes for
restored prosperity are somewhat
revived. The stock market has be-
come unusually active, and private
enterprise is awakening. Unfreezing
of three billions in stored-up credit
is expected to result from new bank
ing regulations ordered by the Pres
ident. Thousands of contracts for
approved projects to cost almost
$500, 900, 900 have been sent to all
parts of the country by the Public
Works administration.
Mr.. Roosevelt, in his latest radio
address to the nation, said: "1n
simple frankness and in simple hon
esty, I need all the help can
get," and it seems that the people
are ready to give that help If the
administration will do its part.
Notable in the Presidents talk
was the admission that mistakes
have been made not only by his OPP
ponents and by industry and labor,
but also by government leaders. He
sharply attacked reactionaries in
business, blaming them for much
of the current depression.
Asserting his continued belief in
individual enterprise and the profit
motive, he criticized the recent con-
gress for failing to enact his pro-
gram for government reorganiza-
ton and legislation to aid the finan-
cially depressed railroad industry.
At the same time, however, he said
the legislators achieved more for
the future good of the country than
any congress between the end of
the World war and the spring of
1o33"

1t may seem odd to motorists that
there could have been traffic prob
lem serious enough to warrant the

but London was very busy city in

way through the narrow streets,
there were abundant chances for
traffic tie-ups.

Great Polish Cities

Cracow and Warsaw are two

stock. In Cracow is the second old
est university in central Europe,
and the tomb Of Kosciusko, hero OF
the American Revolution. A hill OF
earth brought by peasants from all
parts of Poland stands as memoir
al to him.
