THREE PERSONS
 AREBOUND OVER

(Continued from Page D break. Anodes which had appar- ently been taken from vat in the factory were found outside the building, inside other rooms, near a smashed window and the trial of anodes led to the vat, testimony re- vealed.
 Discovered In Auto
 Supernumerary George Smith, who with Ostrom went to investi- gate, said he saw car parked on Aetna street at about 2:15 a. m. Sunday with the three persons ar rested as occupants. Two got out to put on top coats, although it had been raining heavily for some time, he told the court.
 What Court Held
 The court held that the fact they were putting on topcoats then indi- cated they might have previously removed the coats in order not to impede them in their actions, and the judge said this testimony was quite significant.
 In addition, testimony by the po- lice officers and Sergeant Anthony Malone showed that after the trio had been jailed, Gurski said to the other two, "They found the button of my coat in the shop" Hands Smelled
 The hands of GurSki and of Ali sauSkas smelled strongly of acid, but there was no odor on Ramona's hand, Malone told the court. Gurski had cut his hand and at first said he cut it while fixing a flat tire, but later said he cut it in fall. When Dr. Charles S. Kennedy treated the hand, Gurski asked lysol be used instead of iodine, Malone said.
 Officer Smith said they told him they had been visiting girl by hte name of Alice, but did not state her last name or where she lived. Tt must have been Alice in Wonder land." the judge remarked dryly.
 Ellis testified that the chain for the lock on the Risdon company gate had been tempered with and was found later near the factory; but the lock has not been found. Of the 54 anodes found, nine were cop per and 45 were nickel.
 The anodes apparently were passed out the broken window, he said. He said the anodes could be taken from the vat without injury to the hand, but it might be neces- sary to plunge the hand into the solution.
 In finding probable cause, Judge McDcnough remarked that circum- stantial evidence sometimes proves more accurate than eyewitness tes- timony as the latter type sometimes differs. He said the remark of Cur ski to his mates while in the cell might be considered Q consciousness of guilt.

NEWSPAPER GUILD
 IN HUGE STRIKE
(Continued from Page D

(Continued from Page D prior to the discharges.
 3. Employment of all other dis charged circulation employees, in- cluding checkers and relief men, in some capacity without loss of pay.
 3. Cessation of discharfes pending immediate negotiations of a con- tract for the full guild jurisdiction of editorial and commercial em- ployes, the contract to replace the present editorial contracts which expires Jan. 21 and which already have been violated out of existence.
 The publishers charged that the chief point at issue was a jurisdic- tional dispute between the guild and the American Federation of Labor and that the management could not legally bargain until the National Labor Relations board had deter mined the proper bargaining agent.
 Statement of Newspapers
 Meigs and Koeler issued the fol- lowing statement:
 q. There has been no violation of the guild contracts. The manage ment has repeatedly told guild off, cials it has been ready to discuss al- legged violations. The guild refused to discuss the matter.
 "2. There has been no terrorizing of employees. In the orderly opera tion of any business it is necessary to pay of employees for whom there is no work. The CIO guild demands the right to tell us how many we shall employ.
 3. The Hearst newspapers have throughout their entire life stood behind the rights of collective bar gaining. We have advised the guild we are ready to enter negotiations the minute the National Labor Re- lations board designates the proper bargaining unit and agent.
 "Last spring, there being a contro- versy between the American Feder- ation of Labor and the CIO guild as to which should be the bargain ng unit for the unorganized workers of the Chicago American and the Her. aid and Examiner, the CIO guild placed the matter before the labor board where it is still pending. The management cannot legally bargain until the matter is adjudicated.
 American Federation of Labor union members have remained at work. These two newspapers will be printed and distributed as usual"

Detroit, Dec. 5.-(UP)-A strike of 6,40O workers at Fisher Body plant No. 1 at Flint was settled to- day, but the Buick factory, em- ploying 13,000 men, was forced to close until tomorrow because of a shortage of bodies by Fisher.

Commons today,

 These questions, implying suspic- ion that Chamberlain might not be supporting France, and a speech in which Earl De La War, president of the Board of Education in the cabinet, spoke with unusual frank ness on British relations with Ger many, combined to show the deli cacy of the prime minister's position in his persistent effort to pursue a policy of "appeasement."
 Three questions, two of them by supporters of the government, await ed Chamberlain in Commons.
 1-By Robert Pikington, conserva- tive, whether Italy's pledge under the British French Italian agree ment providing for maintenance of the present status in the Mediter- ranean covered a clamor among members of the Italian Chamber of Deputies last Wednesday for cession to Italy of French Corsica, Tunis, Savoy and Nice.
 2-By Brig. Gen. Edward L.. Spears, conservative, whether cham berlain would make it clear to Premier Benito Mussolini that friendly relations between this coun- try and Italy can not be developed unless these claims on France are repudiated by the Italian govern ment and that the visit Scheduled for January ID of the British Prime Minister to Rome can serve no useful purpose if these demands are maintained"
 3-By Arthur Henderson, labor, whether Chamberlain will give as- surance that the British Italian friendship agreement does not weak en Great Britain's obligation to help France, and whether Chamberlain will not cancel his Rome visit un- less anti-French propaganda in Ital- ian newspapers is stopped.

Munich Peace Pact Is Very Near To Collapse

rights to the Spanish insurgents or giving Italy a greater share in the Suez canal management and profits.
 2. By threatening to wreck Chamberlain'S appeasement pro- gram, Mussolini might persuade Britain to bring pressure on France to grant these lesser concessions.
 3. By creating crisis on the eve of the signing of new anti-war &C., cord between Germany and France, Mussolini could test how far Hitler will go in bcaking up Italy,s de- mands in the Mediterranean area.
 Hitler May Aid Chamberlain
 In the long run, Chamberlain will go to graet lengths to work out peaceful settlement. Hitler, busy in central Europe, may aid him direct ly or indirectly. But that there are real dangers involved is illustrated by the fact that any crisis in the Mediterranean strikes at the heart of the British and French empires and by the trembling balance of power built up since Munich.
 Actually, shifting basis was laid at Munich for the new Europe. On one side, the Nazi hegemony over Central Europe was completed and presumably synchronized with the fascist empirical scheme in the mediterranean. On the other side, Britain and France strengthened their entente and undertok to plac- ate the dictatorial bloc until they had built up their arms enough to fight if necessary.
 But even within that alignment there are sharp divisions. Italy wanted to maintain some influence in middle Europe and supported the demand of Poland and Hungary for a common frontier that would ham, dicap the Nazi expansion eastward. MuSsolini lost to Hitler there, pos- sibly on the fuehrer's promise of support for Italy's Mediterranean plans. France has followed Cham berlain'S lead heSitantly and through necessity, knowing that col- lapse of the Eentente would mean disaster for both nations.
 Germany, Italy Hate Entente
 Germany and Italy would like to break up the Entente; leave France isolated and helpless. Nothing would please London or Paris more than to drive a wedge into the Nazi-fas- cist axis. Neither of these poSsi- bilitieS is likely, not because the partners love each other but be- cause they must stay together for self protection.
 Nevertheless, these circumstances at times give the whole set-up the aspect of dog fight in which two start scrapping and others leap in. The present controversy between Italy and France is such an occa- sion. Only the blindest regard fol technicalities would permit accept ance of the Italian demonstrations against France as spontaneous or unofficial.
 i What happened was that Musso- lini decided the time was right tc demand Italy's profits. How much he gets probably will depend on what Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop tells France and Britain this week when he arrives in Paris to sign the new French German accord.

 Premier Daladier yesterday or dered the cabinet to meet today, as coluncil of ministers under Presi- dent Albert Lebrun, to consider the new French-Italian dispute, caused by 8 demonstration in the Italian chamber of deputies last week for Italian acquisition of French Tunisia, Corsica, Savoy and Nice.
 Defers Meeting
 AS a result of the new threat of labor troubles, however, Daladier dferred the meeting until tomor- row.
 There were indications that the government, though making 1t plain to- the Italian government that 1t was prepared to concede nothing to such demands as those made in the Rome parliament, was trying to minimize the dispute. Corsicans and Tunisians spoke for themselves yes- terday with riotous demonstrations denouncing any effort by Italy to claim Corsican or Tunisian territory. It was expected that Foreignf Min ister Georges Bonnet would seek a declaration from German Foreign Minister Won Ribbentrop that the Nazi government was not supporting any Italian agitation for French territory.
 RibbentrOp Has Many Aides
 Ribbentrop is to arrive tomorrow with corps of aides to sign the mo more war" declaration and to discuss with Bonnet the entire Eu- ropeon situation.
 Immediately after the signing ceremony, Ribbentrop, Bonnet and Premier Daladier are to begin their discussion of international problems. Bonnet and Ribbentrop may issue a joint statement tomorrow evening,
 Daladier hoped that the lobar 0it- tlation, the new Italian dispute and the German conference might be ended satisfactorily by the time par- lament meets Thursday.

 Corsicans Indignant
 President of Corsicar1 societies in France issued joint statement ex- pressing indignation at the "scan- dalous and ridiculous demonstration in the Italian chamber" and affirm ing that "all Corsicians, heirs of the traditions of their ancestors who fought for four centuries until their final victory against their Genoese adversaries, will never permit their status in the French fatherland and

Italian Papers Attack

Rome, Dec. 5-(UP)-The con- trolled Fascist press renewed its at- tacks on France today and bitterly denounced French "insinuations" that 1taly's partnership with Nazi Germany is being strained.
 Virginia Gayda, who is close to Premier Benito Mussolini, wrote in the Giornale DTta1ia that France, instead of advancing insinuations about the Rome-Berlin axis, should remember that her frontier province of Alsace is inhabited by 3,500,00 Germans.
 (Gayda's attack was considered particularly significant in view of reported annoyance" in Berlin that the Italian campaign against France came on the eve of the signing of new German-French anti-war &C., cord)
 Following up unofficial Italian de- mands for such French territory as Tunisia and Corsica, Gayda said:
 Greater Germany is not only on the Italian frontier but on the French frontier as well, next to territory under French sovereignty although it is populated by 3,6OO, ,00O German and Is rich in iron and po- taSSium mines"
 Gayda Indignant
 Gayda indignantly remarked on anti-Italian demonstrations by the French in Tunis and Corsica and French newspaper criticism of Italy.
 They reveal only an incapacity of comprehension and obstinacy in errors deliberate work to refute any policy of clarification or jus tice," he wrote.
 Attacks on Italian consulates and institutions were ordered, he charged, merely as result of shouts of individual Italians Gin the cham Der of deputies) which were "only expressions of principle and hadl not been definitely clarified"
 The Italian government has talk en the position that the Chamber of deputies demonstration for Tu- nisia and Corsica was not represen- tative of a government policy.
 Must Know In Paris
 "This means that raising of a fatal barrier between France and Italy," Gayda wrote. "They must know definitely in Paris that they have never been able. to deviate Italy from the inflexible tutelage' of her interests and aspirations. !"
 Other Italian newspapers de- scribed the anti-Italian demonstra- tions in Tunis and Corsica as "or- ganized" or ordered" by French authorities. They quoted Italians living in those French territories as saying that France had created "a reign of terror against our com- patriots"
 "Along the boundary of Libya, a Maginot-like line has been con- structed (by France) at 8 cost of tens of millions of francis," Tevere said. "The cosatline defenses also have been organized with special attention to Italian objectives."
 Italian sources praised British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and indicated belief that he would aid Italy's desire for "realistic' ex- animation of differences with France.

  under the colors of the Republican party"
 Guffey Maneuvers
 Some politicians interpreted Gulf fey'S statement at maneuver to pro- tect his powerful state delegation to nominating convention against raid by "middle-of-the-roads'' candi- dates or other Democrats put for ward by the conservative wing of the party.
 So long as Guffey and his dele gates are pledged to MT. Roosevelt, they remain comparatively safe from other pressure and would be in a position to make the best available bargain if MT. Roosevelt finally re- fused to premit his name to go before the convention in June, 1940.
 But if Guffey has undetaken to lead a draft-Roosvelt movement, 1t is believed that congressional oppo- sition will develop to stop him.
 Copeland Resolution
 The late Sen. Copeland, (d) N. Y, during the bruising supreme court battled in 1897 offered a constitu- tional amednment to prevent pres ident serving more than two terms. Nothing came of that. But in 1928 when the late Sen. Fess, (r) O., was leading the draft-C Coolidge move ,ment, the senate adopted by a vote of 36-25 resolution opposing presi- dential third terms. The house took similar action during the second administration of President Grant. The senate's repudiation of third terms in 1928 was voted despite President Coolidge'S statement during the previous summer:
 T do not choose to run for presi- dent in 1923"
 Guffey Is Not Leader
 Sen. Duffey is not the leader of the Democratic party" snapped Sen. King, (O Utah, in reply to the third term proposal. "The American people never have favored third term and all moves toward such an objective in the past have been abortive. Precedents set on this issue SnOulQ pc 1OllOWeQ.
 King is among half a dozen con- servative Democrats who supported the anti-tird term resolution di- rected at MT. Coolidge in 1928. The others were Sens. Gerry, R. l., Glass, Va, Harrison, Miss, Smith, s. O., and Tydings, Md. Any of them would be following precedent of they offered a similar resolution against Roosevelt third term.
 Such resolution might embarras some senate new dealers who did not hesitate in 1928 to oppose a third term. They include: Sens. Barkley, Ky, Ashurst, Ariz., McKel- lar, Tenn, Hayden, Ariz., Nicely, w. Va, Pittman, Nev., Thomas, Ok la., Wagner, N. r., Norris, Neb., La Toilette, Wis, and Shipstead, Minn. The 1928 resolution was introduced by La Toilette, then a Republican.
 Farley Not Consulted
 So far as could be determined to- day, Guffey raised the Roosevelt third term banner without consult ing Chairman Farley of the Demo- cratic national committee or with the president.
 ; Farley believes the summer of 1889 would be the proper time for MT. Roosevelt to get in or out of the race. If the president long delays public decision beyond next august, Farley may consider himself re- leased from his obligations to the White House.
 American institute Gallup of public opinion polls have shown Farley, Secretary of State Hull, vice. resident Garner, Gov. Earl of Penn sylvania, and Senator Barkley, (d) Ky, senate majority leader, among the most popular potential 194O candidates if MT. Roosevelt did not run.
