the pace of its efforts to reach an
agreement with Premier Mussolini

DOMINIONS RETICENT
Chamberlain promised to make
his foreign policy pronouncement
in the face of notification from
the British deminiens that they
would oppose any fresh British
commitments in Europe,
One of the chief points in the
British pressure campaign on Mus
solini is an effort to exact q prom
Use of Italian troop Withdrawals
from Spain which would clear the
way for a Londen-Rome agree
ment.
The expected agreement with
II Duce, for which negotiations
are reaching the final stage, will
form the first important mile
stone in Chamberlain's European
pacification program. Some
diplomatic circles predict the
agreement may be concluded by
the end of this week.

new assurances of armed sup
port for France should that
country be the victim Of aggres-

2. Britain conditionally guar
antees the integrity of Czecho-

sunspot activity scrambled radio
signals and made possible the "too
perfect" short-wave reception which
Pilot Charles B. Stead blamed for
the loss of . transport plane and
five of its seven occupants when
he made a forced landing in the

"Sunspots produce uncanny con-

The country was calm, but police
acted lest there be any outbreak as
the aftermath to the deaths Of Cor
neliu Zelea Codreanu, chief of the
illegal guard, and 13 Of his followers.
They were shot, authorities said,
when tley tried to escape from q

were to shoot ruthlessly any one
caught at crime or violence. "Tak

tions. The police were told 1t would

Several Marked for Death.
There had been reports the past
several days that the guards secret
councils marked several prominent
government leaders for death. Au-
thorities, taking precautionary steps,
were confident, however, that Codre-
anus death would bring an end to
Iron Guard assassinat tions and revo-
lutionary conspiracy.
His movement was described as q
"one-fuehrer" organization, which
he had managed to direct even while
in prison. He was serving sentence
for treason. Officials believed he
would have no successor or that what
was left of the guard would disin-
tegrate in a confusion of squabbles
over leadership.

The director estimated that six

Additional returns may be ex-
pected through the governmental
volunteer organization, which is
still active, Mr.. Hall said. Returns
from Government employees up to
the time Of the final audit raised
the percentage of unit quota 1853
per cent from the 1903 per cent
recorded at the close of the cam
paign last week.
The Special Assignments Unit,
under the Craftsmanship of Fred
erick M. Bradley, climbed to $478,-
463, or 1928 per cent of the unit
goal of $581 ,474. This represents an
increase Of less than 2 per cent
since the closing campaign date last
week when the 80.55 per cent level
was reached.
The Group Solicitation Unit,
under the craftsmanship of Harold
A, Brooks, reached a total Of $407,-
511.2O, or 8697 per cent of the unit
quota of $468,577. This is an in
crease in firm and employe con-
tributions since the campaign closed

dolph Leigh, chairman, brought its

Unit quota is $66,818.
Additional returns from the Capt.
tai Unit, under the leadership OF
John r. Pinkett, chairman, brought
the unit total to $7,810.41, or II per
cent of the $1,000 set as the goal
for solicitation among the colored
population.
Mr.. Willett announced that the
Executive Committee will meet to-
morrow. At that time consideration
will be given several suggested plans
to raise the rest of the amount
sought this wear. He said several
business houses have started re-can-
vases in efforts to add to their total
subscriptions. Several individuals
are doing this too in territory as
signed them and other individuals,
Mr.. Willett added, are increasing
their subscriptions.
One man increased his pledge from
$500 to 5000, another added 500 to

 Best Bets
 The best bet for blooms for Win ter is from the numerous bulbs one can grow indoors. The earliest is the paper white narcissus and it's allies. These can be brought into bloom by Thanksgiving. After r Christmas the early tulips and hya- cinths start in with crocus, scillias, sq,iills and chinodozas following in quick succession. Later the early double tulips arrive and lastly some of the cottage tulips.
 The narcissus are planted in Oc- tober-not sooner Bulbs planted too early come blifid-that is they come without, flowers, Plant the bulbs in small bowl with pebbles around them to hold them up. A small piece of charcoal in the bottom of the bowl will aid in keeping the water sweet. Fill with water to the base of the bulbs and keep this water level at all times.

 Specimens of Alaska .f Flora for Book

After being gone into the Alet- tians and Arctic since early May, Territorial Representative J. P.
 Anderson, widely known florist re- l turned to his home in Juneau
 yesterday aboard the Coast Guard
 cutter Cyane. During the long trip,
 which carried him as far as Point
 Barrow, MT. Anderson gathered D.
 100 specimens of Alaska flora, a
 study he is making preliminary to writing a book on Alaska flowers. The well-known Juneau man went aboard the cutter Northland at Seattle last May 20 and stayed abodard it during it's trip to Un- Ialska, Nome and way points on the way to Point Barrow. He was with the party which included U. s. Senator Robert Reynolds of
 North Carolina. MT Anderson trans fererd from the Northland to the Cyane at Unalaska on the south
 bound trip in order to come di- rectly into Juneau.
 The summer trip was described
 by the florist as one of the best he had ever taken from viewpoint of learning about northern Alaska and said he enjoyed every minute of it. In addition to collecting the large number of specimens, he learned much of the Territory and it's needs, he explained, which will be helpful during the forthcoming session of the Legislature.
 He was aboard the Northland when the Soviet Government de- nied shore leave at St. Lawrence Bay but later was able to go ashore at Mechigme Bay for a short time, although the travellers were forced to stay on one little | strip of ground and were not per mitted to wander about and see he said
