IN STAMPS
Bofivor-Woshineton
Of South America

IN the same year that Abrahars
Lincoln was born in a Ken
tucky cabin, 1909, cosmopolitan
young Simon Bolivar visited the
United States and was struck by
the success of democracy. Before
he returned to his native Vene-
zuela he vowed to free it of Span
ish domination and set up a SIM
liar democratic form of rule.
Bolivar was born of noble and
wealthy family in Caracas, July 2,
1888. He had studied law in
Madrid, travelled widely. So when
he returned to Venezuela he had
valuable contacts. These aided
him in secret organization of pa
triots. On April 1S, 1910, insur-
rection broke out. Thereafter
Bolivar and his group fought the
Spanish intermittently for three
years. On Aug. 4, 1913, Bolivar
at last entered Caracas tri-
umphantly as a conqueror.
Immediately, he was hailed as
the liberator of Venezuela and
made absolute dictator in both
civil and military affairs. Subse-
quently he pushed his campaign
against the Spaniards until in 1919
New Granada united with Vene-
zuela as the Republic of Colombia
with Bolivar as first president. In
1922 Bolivar was summoned to as
sist the Peruvians in their strug-
gle and two years later he was
proclaimed dictator of Peru. Later
Bolivia was fashioned from this
territory and Bolivar named its
peptual protector
So the dreams of the Venezuelan
patriot found fruition, although
the "Liberator" was to know much
hatred and disaffection before his
death in 1880. He is shown here
on 1880 Venezuelan stamn
marking the centenary of his
death.

France viii Zone
All Undesirables
Will Be Paid, for Public or
Defense Works.

PARIS, Nov. %. (UP)--Thc
French government, spurred to
action by the Paris assassination
of German diplomat by young
Jewish alien, is preparing to set
up concentration centers called
"zones of surveillance" for all un-
desirable foreigners, it was un-
derstood last night.
Officials pointed out that the
zones, where undesirable aliens
will be put to work when it is i'm
possible to dcport them, will not
be concentration or labor camps
in the German sense but will be
places where workers, at Stipulat-
ed pay, will carry out tasks of
public utility or useful national
defense"
As a companion measure, the
government will increase it's
watch over the frontiers by Gre
ating a new corps of 1,5OO gen.
darmes charged with preventing
aliens from entering France with
out authorization.

MASS FUNERALS BEGIN TODAY
FOR CALIFORNIA FLOOD DEAD
Mourners Pass Along Streets Where Bodies Are Still
Sought; Martial Law Still Blocks Looting

Approximately 5000 persons
were being fed and sheltered by
the Red Cross, their own homes
destroyed by the maelstrom of
flood waters or landslides that
devastated thousands of square
miles of southern California low
lands last week.
Red Cross headquarters in Los
Angeles reported a total of 5,446
homes in Los Angeles, Ventura,
Orange, Riverside and San Ber-
nardino counties uninhabitable-
either destroyed or damaged.
The one bright spot in the other
wise drab picture of suffering and
despair came in advices from most
sections Of the flood-stricken area,
indicating that the list of missing
was steadily declining. Numerous
persons, who earlier had been list
ed as missing, were found by dis
tracted relatives and friends in
refugee camps and other points of
concentration. hastily set up by
relief agencies. -,
Fears of one Red Cross official
that the death toll eventually
would exceed 800 appeared to be
unfounded. Last night, it seemed
doubtful that the count would
reach 200.

WILL CONTEST
ORDINANCE ON
MILK TRAFFIC.
Biltmore Dairy Counsel
Serves Notice Of I'm.
pending Steps

Legal counsel for the Biltmore
Dairy Farms of Asheville, has In.
dicated to city officials here that q
a city ordinance, passed April o,
1887, will be contested on tne
grounds that it is discriminatory
against out-of-town concerns.
The ordinance provides an in
spection fee of $25 per month for
each vehicle delivering milk from
q plant located outside Henderson
COUNTY and a SIS monthly inspec-
ton fee for each dairy supplying
milk to such plants.
In letters to Mayor A. V: Ed
wards and City Attorney j: +.
Shipman, Charles H. Cover, Char
lotte attorney for the Biltmore
concern, states that he has been
advised that the Hendersonvillee
health officer has stopped sale OF
milk from the Biltmore company's
plant under the ordinance. :.
Mr.. Cover said that the ordl-
nance is similar to that of Ashe-
vile, which he states should be
repealed, and he cites several
opinions of courts holding similar
ordinances of various cities IN
valid as discriminatory against
foreign concerns:
Mayor Edwards made no COM
ment on the letter this morning,
but the ordinance is expected to
be examined by the city attorney
and other officials.

Loyalists To Push War On Rebels At Sea
SENATORS MOVING TO CURB
POWERS ROOSEVELT WOULD
HAVE BY REORGANIZATION
Foes Of Administration Bill
Plan Major Attack Thru
Amendment

WASHINGTON, Mar. 7. (UP)
Senate foes of the administra-
tons government reorganization
bill planned u major attack today
with an attempt to add all amend
mcnt that would limit powers 1t
gives to the president.
Senator Harry +. Byrd (D-Va.)
leader of the opposition, said that
an amendment. offered by Senator
Burton X. Wheelc: (D-Mont.)
would halt criticism of provisions
authorizing the president to abol-
ish and consolidate governmental
agencies. The Wheeler amendment
would require the president to
submit rs plans for reorganization
to congress, which could place
them into effect by joint resolu-
ton.
Under the pending bill, spon-
sored by Senator Jas. F. Byrnes
(D-S. c. the reorganization would
be done by executive orders and
become effective 60 days after is
suance unless congress disap-
proved.
Senator Royal S.. Copeland ID
N. " will begin the attack today
and Wheeler, leading opponent Of
President Roosevelts court reor-
ganization proposals, will launch
the major, offensive tomorrow.
Senator VIM. F.. Borah (R-ldaho)
also was expected to speak in be-
half of the Wheeler amendment.
Chairman John O'Connor ID
N. W of the house rules commit
tee predicted meantime that a
wages and hour bill will be passed
by the house this session. His
statement indicated that his COM
mittee might be willing to send to
the floor some form of compro-
mise proposal suggested by Chair
man Mary Norton Of the labor
committee.
O'Connor endorsed the principle
of Mrs. Norton's newest plan,
which would establish a 3O-cent
hourly minimum wage and a A.
hour maximum work week the first
year. 1t would improve standards
yearly until after three years q
Accent and 40-hour level would
be in force. He insisted on "flex-
Utility" however, to meet regional
and industrial conditions.
Reorganization sponsors were
confident they could defeat the
Wheeler amendment and also pre-
vent efforts to exempt the office
of comptroller general from the
abolition terms of the measure.
They were less confident, however,
of stopping a Democratic: Repub--
lican attempt to exempt the civil
service from the bill.
