 COLLECT $3,OOO

New Haven. Conn, March 28-(U. P0-Two armed bandits and an accomplice who used the telephone to lure their victim away from a burglar alarmb, were sought today for the holdup late Sunday of Cash fer Ammiel G. Dill, 25, of The Con- necticut Company.
 The robbers obtained approxi- mately 5000 after trusting Dill and forcing him to lie face-down on the floor. The bandits, he told police, acted nervou" and as they left they admonished him don't try to move until we get out of here"

ANCLO-ITALIAN
 PACT INTENDS
May Be Signed Before Hitler Has May Session
 With MuSSOlini
BY FREDERICK KUH United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff COrrespOndenD Copyright 1888, by United PressJ
 London, March 28.-(UP).-The new British-Italian pact is now talk ing de mite shape, it was understood today, and is likely to be signed formally before Adolf Hitler visits Benito Mussolini early in May.
 In event that the treaty is in- itiated, it is at present uncertain how many points embodied in the whole agreement will be included in the pat as published, and how many will have the nature of private un- dertakings between the two govern mentS.
 According to a most responsible source the features of the agree ment as now envisaged are:
 1-Reafflrmation of British Ital- ian "gentlemen's agreement" of January, 1887, recognizing the pres ent status in the Mediterranean.
 "A formula by which Britain recognized Italy's annexation of Ethiopia-though Britain is still try ing to link recognition with League of Nations endorsement.
 3-Italy regardless of contrary re- ports has dropped any thought she may have entertained of seeking naval parity with Britain in the Mediterranean and has abstained from pressing the issue of naval ratios.
 4-Italy undertakes to reduce her garrison in Libya, unofficially esti- mated at from between 80,000 to 100000 men. Britain attaches small importance to this feature as the troops could be sent over again on short notice.
 5-In difference to Mussolini it is intended that Britain shall reafirm certain clauses of the 1888 Suez canal agreement regarding freedom of transit.
 6-Mutual agreement to ban con- struction of Notifications along the eastern shores of the Red Sea. 7-Britain asks a formal pledge by Mussolini to abstain from raiS- ing a native army in Ethiopia.
 8-(Presumably by private agree ment)-Britain and Italy undertake to determine Grazing rights along the Ethiopian frontier and to de- limit Ethiopia's boundaries with Kenya and the Sudan. Britain also expects safeguards for continued &C., cess to the waters of Lake Tana, es1 1ential to Sudan cotton planta- tions.
 9-Both nations to give assurance to stop hostile, subversive propa- ganda in the near middle east and elsewhere.
 It was believed that the agree ment also would touch the future of Palestine, and that instructions which G. w. Rendle, British for eign office near astern expert, was to submit to Foreign Minister Gale ago Ciano at Rome today contained observations on Palestine and the eastern Mediterranean generally.

POPULAR SINGERS
 WIN IN ADDITION
John Carter and Leonard Warren Will Get "Met"
 Engagements

New York, March 27-Twenty six weeks of Metropolitan Opera Au- ditions of the Air" awarded the golden opportunity of singing at the Metropolitan Opera to two New York boys yesterday-John Carter, tenor, and Leonard Warren, bari tone-who are the winners.
 They were further rewarded by MT. George A. Martin, president of the Sherwin- Williams Company, the sponsors, with checks for $1000.00 each and silver plaques, at the broadcast of the Met" Air Additions when they were an- rounced as winners in the compe- tition in which 707 tried out. Ed ward Johnson, general manager of the Metropolitan Opera Associa- ton and chairman of the commit tee of judges, welcomed the two singers into the Metropolitan fold, wishing them best of luck and de- claring "the singers were chosen from the best talent auditioned in many years"
 John Carter, at 8 reception given for the winners in the Rainbow Room by MT. and Mrs. George A. Martin of Cleveland, said that he was 25 years old and got the chance of lifetime when he was first heard on the Met" Air Additions November 28th. It was this hearing that gave him the chance to take Nelson Eddy's singing job on a Well-known radio program. His sponsor and interested motion pie ture companies allowed him a leave of two weeks, and he flew to New York from Hollywood to take his chances in the final additions.
 Born in Brooklyn, N. Y, Carter always sang as boy in school af- fairs and at local parties. He at tended Manual Training high school in Brooklyn, however his family wanted him to be 8 professional man, consequently he studied civil engineering at City College. Two years ago a voice teacher told Car ter that his voice had settled and now was the time for him to do some serious study of music. His first opportunity to prove his sing ing ability was given to him on the Met" Air Auditions-and because of this he will have attained all the goals of stardom in period of three months-a top radio job motion pictures-and now con- tract with the Metropolitan Opera Company.
 Leonard Warren, the baritone, is of Russian percentage and attended the Evander Childs high school in the Bronx. His father, a collector of raw furs, taught him the bus mess after graduation, but the young man still managed to study at Columbia University night school. He had never taken an &C., tual voice lesson until five years ago, when he gave up business to concentrate on music. His real op- portunity came when he was first heard on the Met" Air Additions October 31St. From this hearing he received a siX-month contract from major network. He also won a $500 prize as the best singer of the month of December. He sings in Italian, French and German, and of course is familiar with Russian.

Almost like one of the familiar spring floor scenes is this view of the tremendous groundswell of humanity that covered the vast open spaces of Berlin's great Will helmplatz when Chancellor Hitler came home from Vienna. Surging about the trees and bases of statues in waves whose white crests were the thousands of hands stretched forth in the Nazi salute, this gigantic Berlin recep- tion committee waited patiently for hours to heil with Niagara like roar their leader.

A PIECE OF FOLLY

A Presbyterian minister writes:
my host here in California has beer
feeding me with large and luscious
cantaloupes for breakfast. But yester-
day he stated that he could get nc
more like them, for orders have come
from Washington that all the rest of
the crop must be destroyed in order
to keep the price of small melons
up" 1t is hard to conceive of such
folly in high places. Wanton destruc-
ton of Gods good gifts in order that
inferior products may be foisted upon
a people! Is it possible for any one
to imagine our Maker smiling upon
such a program?
