NEW DEADLOCK
ARISES OVER

But Extension of Hitler's
Power Seen as London,
Paris Fail to Act
AUSTRIAN NAZI in
BERLIN CONFERENCE

VIENNA, Feb. II. (UP)-De-
mands for the removal Of anti
Nazi elements from the highly
important departments Of finance
and propaganda are understood to
have brought the Austro-German
crisis to a new deadlock.
1t was because of these diff
culties in the contamination of
Fuehrer Adolf Hitler's plans, OBJ
servers believed, that the new
Austrian minister Of interior, DR..
Arthur Won Syess-Inquart, Nazi
supporter, fastened to Berlin and
conferred with Hitler.
At Berlin, Hitler and Seyss-
Inquart conferred for more than
an hour regarding developments
resultant from Austro-German
negotiations.
Meantime, Austrian leaders
lost hope of blocking the German
Nazi influence which was expect
cd to bring their domestic and
foreign policy under Berlin's di-
rection after receiving the in
formation that London and Paris
will give no assistance.

VIENNA, Feb. 17.-CUP)-
Relations between Germany and
Austria headed toward fresh
crisis early today as Fuehrer
Adolf Hitler apparently sought to
extend his Austrian cabinet
"coup" to include Nazi control of
the armed forces and his key man
in the Schuschnigg government
hurried I'd" Berlin.
Minister of Interior DR.. Arthur
Won Seyss.Inquart, placed in the
cabinet "a hours ago when Chan
cellor Kurt Schuschnigg capitu-
lated to Hitler's demands, left for
Berlin in response to several urg-
ent telephone calls.
The semi official Reichpost
said the Nazi minister went to
Berlin to Inform the German
government as a representative
of the Austrian government of
the execution of the agreed mea-
Sures." ..
1t was generally believed, how
ever, that he sought Hitler's ad-
vice on means of coping with
Schuschnigg's apparent efforts to
prevent Qualification" Of the
Fatherland Front, Austria's only
legal political organization since
1884.
DR.. Seyss-Inquart late yester-
day became chief of the Father
land Fronts section "for coordi.,
nation of the national elements
and selected committee Of
three, including Herr Jury, one
of the outlawed Austrian Nazls.
This plan was upset when
Schuschnigg announced that Gull
do Zernatto, secretary of state
for the Fatherland Front, had
been appointed as the organiza-
tons deputy leader under
Schuschnigg.
SchuSchnlgg was expected 10
make q statement concerning his
meeting with Hitler at Berchtes-
gaden February "a when the
Austrian federal diet assemblies,
it was learned reliably.
Zernatto, foe Of the Austrian
Nazis, thus became virtually the
leader of the front be-
cause of Schuschnigg's preoccu-
patton with other matters OF
state. :,
Schuschnigg apparently sought
to convince. the Austrian popula-
ton by the appointment that the

LONDON, Feb. II. (UP).
Great Britain and France, fearful

FOR BIG NAVAL BILL AND
OTHER DEFENSE MEASURES
Collateral Plans Brewing
in House for War;
Time Legislation

WASHINGTON, Feb. II. (UP)
House leaders tentatively planned
today to devote next week to floor
consideration Of President Roosc-
velt's S800,000,000 naval cXpan-
sion bill and other defense pro-
gram items.
The house naval affairs commit
tee began the concluding part of
its public hearings or the bill by
Chairman Carl Vinson (D-Ga.)
for al new fighting ships, with
Rear Admiral William G. DuBose,
chief of construction, scheduled to
give technical testimony on build
ing plans.
The house military affairs COM
mittec put two defense bills on
the calendar for next week and
prepared to add third over OPP
position. The two reported were,
a bill to establish an army reserve
of $4,000 men during the next
four years to give a potential
strength Of 100000, and a meas
ure to increase the number of Of
ficers from 1850 to 400, enough
to command a larger army than
the one now enrolled.
The third bill was the admins
tration-sponsored m e IRE by
Chairman Andrew Jackson May
D-Ky.), designed to prevent war
time profteering by putting a cell
ing on prices and empowering the
president to control industry.
WASHINGTON, Feb. II. (UP)-
The United States must be pre-
pared for possible attack by the
thrce-poder Fascist bloc and con-
stantly maintain naval supremacy
over Japan in the interests of
world peace, vongrcss was warn
ed yesterday by proponents OF
President Roosevelts supremacy
program. :,
Chairman David |. Walsh, D.,
Mass. of the senate naval affairs
committee, declared that a five
five-three naval ratio among the
United States, Great Britain and
Japan was the best means Of pre-
serving peace.
He said that such supremacy
over Japan would be absolutely
necessary to prevent collapse OF
American industrial and CONNER
cial life in event of hostllltles
with the island empire, but slmul-
taneously he denounced propa-
ganda intended "to create an at
titude of suspicion and dlstrust
between Japan and the United
States" ~,
Earlier, Representative Byron
Scott, D., Calf, told the house
naval affairs committee that the
United States must always keep
in mind" the possible dangers OF
a pro-Fascist alliance between ia
pan, Germany and Italy.
Scott made this statement dur
ing questioning of Representative
Hamilton Fish, R., n. Y, who op-
posed President Rooscvelts $oOo,-
100000 naval expansion program
on grounds that the supremacy
would be used to police the
world" in parallel action with
Great Britain. -. n
Walsh, answering critics of the the
building program, said there rs
no relationship" between the ne
cessity for increasing the coun-
try's national defense and any
plans for possible aggressive &C
ton in foreign territory"
"The American people sincere,
" desire peace with all nations,
he said, in an apparent appear
directed chiefly toward Japan

ganda intended to create suspicion

public idea that account of certain changes MADE IN

In order to support this claim they quoted Section 107 of
requiring the notice to be given to taxpayers who Will be
delinquent after October lst of this year
The old law reads as follows.
"1o7 THE SAID TREASURER SHALL DURING THE FIRST
WEEK IN DECEMBER IN EACH AND EVERY YEAR, GIVE
NOTICE TO ALL DELINQUENT TAXPAYERS OF SAID

PAPERS PUBLISHED IN SAID COUNTY AND BY HAND
EACH ELECTION DIsTRICT, AND AT THE COURT HOUSE

PAYMENT OF ALL TAXES THEN DUE AND IN ARREARS
WILL BE ENFORCED BY ADVERTISEMENT AND SALE UN-
LESS THE SAME ARE PAID BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF

The new law requiring the give notice reads
. follows
