HITLER COUP SEEN
AIDING NAVY BILL
House Debate Is Scheduled
Monday-Fight on Three
BattIeships Planned.
BY the Associated Press.


Some administration leaders pre-
dicted privately yesterday that the
troubled European situation would
help them win House approval of the
billion-dollar naval expansion pro-
gram this week.
Representative Luckey, Democrat,
OF Nebraska, leader of the opposl-
ton. agreed with them that the Nazi
seizure of Austria had come at an
opportune time for advocates of the
big Navy bill.
He argued, however, that European
countries had their hands so full at
home they couldn't possibly menace
our Atlantic Coast"
Representative Brewster. Republi-
can, of Maine member OF the House
Naval Committee, told reporters he
would attempt to eliminate the bills
authorization for construction Of three
s7o,000,000 battleships, and Represen-
tative Maverick, Democrat, of Texas
expressed belief the number OF Demo-
Gratis who would vote against the bill
was increasing every day.
If We vote for this program, we're
going to hurt the Democratic party"
Mr.. Maverick said. I'VE Democrats
will be crucifying ourselves"
The House is scheduled to begin
debate on the measure tomorrow. The
bill would authorize construction Of 46
warships. % auxiliary vessels and $50
airplanes. 1t would provide no funds
to carry out the authorizations. how
ever. Congress would consider ap-
propriations separately, later.

USED CAR WEEKS
SUCCESS IS SHOWN
Reports From Major Trade
Centers Reveal Boost
in Business.

Reports from the Nations major
business centers, compiled by North
American Newspaper Alliance, indi-
Gated yesterday the success of National
Used-Car Week in breaking the used
car jam" and stimulating production
and sales Of new cars.
Oficials Of the Chicago Automobile
Trade Association estimated more than
100000 used-car sales for the week.
In addition, they said, there has been
a great increase in new-car sales as .
direct result, because many who came
to look for used-car bargains ended
by purchasing new cars.
The greatest benefit was not the
total of immediate sales" said Samuel
Shapiro, secretary Of the association,
but in the stimulus it has given the
automobile business generally. This is
the first time this year that people
have been induced to come to show
rooms in any numbers. 1t is expected
the effects will be cumulative, with
sales showing continued increase dur
ing coming weeks"
50 Per Cent Higher Average.
Five hundred dealers at Chicago re-
ported the greatest demand was for
cars priced between $3.50 and $500.
This average was said to be so per
cent higher than usual for this time
of yeas
In the Detroit area between $4,000
and $4,000 used cars changed hands
in the last week, H. H. Shuart of the
Detroit Automobile Dealers Asoci-
alton estimated.
1T is safe to say that the used-car
jam is rapidly being broken and that
a steady increase in the sale Of new
cars should follow" Mr.. Shuart de-
clared. Dealers report that their
stocks of better cars are still adequate,
however. Prices probably will remain
at the low levels of the last 80 days
until they are moved"
Sales In Other Cities.
Success of National Used-Car Week
also was indicated in New York, Kan
sas City, Cleveland, San Francisco
Atlanta. Dallas and other cities. A
majority Of dealers reported increased
sales in New York. Approximately
500 used cars were sold in Atlanta
and as many in Kansas City. Nearly
900 used cars were placed on = special
display in Dallas.
Total used-car sales in Cleveland
for the first part of the week were
1926, against 1872 the previous week.
E. D. Bottom, branch manager of
the Ford Motor Co. plant at Atlanta,
announced the plant will reopen to-
morrow and that 700 men will return
to their jobs. The plant, which had
been closed three weeks. will resume
its full schedule of a five-day work
week Mr.. Bottoms announcement
stated that a general pickup in busi-
ness, and sales stimulus created
through National Used-Car Week were
responsible for reopening of the plant

Two bucking billy goats donated by
a farmer ate their way through the
days collection Of rags and newspa-
pers at the Salvation Army Mems So
cial Service Center yesterday before
they were finally sold, to another
farmer.
Adjt. Albert E. Baldwin, officer in
charge of the center, admitted the
well-fed goats could scarcely be classed
as clothing or furniture, the two OBJ
jects of a current drive, but he said
they were graciously received none
theless.
AS the first week OF the bundle

furniture and $500 bundles of clothing

gestion for an entirely new type Of
arms limitation conference"
He said such a conference was the
only feasible alternative TO the suicidal
arms race the whole world is now
engaged in"
The Senator, who has advocated
coalition Of Republicans and anti-ad-
ministration Democrats in the con-
gressional elections this fall and the
presidential contest of 1910, said of
his legislative proposals:
The program should attract the
liberal and the conservative. 1t seems
to me it it should meet with the ap-
proval Of business and labor
Would Permit Partial Veto.
Senator Vandenberg divided his
program, in addition to the prospective
arms conference proposal, under these
general headings:
Government reorganization Permit
the President to veto individual items
in all appropriation bills; create a
complete career service in the Post
Office Department"
Labor: Amendment of the Wagner
Act to provide mutual responsibility"
for unions and employers in collective
bargaining agreements; permit em-
ployers to petition for collective bar
gaining elections; prohibit sit-down
strikes; submit a constitutional child
labor amendment which would be
acceptable to all States; investigate
the advisability of exempting indus
trial firms from certain taxes in return
for installing profit-sharing systems"
Finance: Amend the Social Secur-
ity Act to suspend any increase in
pay roll taxes and segregate security
tax collections from general Treasury
funds.
Suggests Increase in r. F. c. Funds.
Agriculture: Increase Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corp for Industrial
use loans by $700 900, 900 to encourage
the use of agricultural commodities in
industry. Senator Vandenberg said
the proposal would provide market
for the produce of $4,000. 900 acres in
10 years and relieve unemployment.
Relief: Federal grants to the States
to be matched and administered To-
cally.
Most of the legislation he has in
troduced this session is still in the
hands of congressional committees,
Senator Vandenberg pointed out. His
child labor amendment received unan-
imous Endorsement of the Senate Ju-
dietary Committee and Is awaiting
call in the Senate
Responsibility for enactment of
the program is not with the minority
party" he declared.

Numbers Legislation Aimed at
Spread of Big Time Rackets
Officials Not Concerned Primarily With
Chance afforded Poor to
Gamble.

numbers. What If they always lose?
Correct-no great harm. But what of
those who keep creeping up on their
bets, hoping to win back In one coup
all they ever lost? What Of the half
dollar or even dollar better? There
are plenty of them, too, most Of them
unable to afford the money they're
wasting.
Influence Of Racketeers.
But the other side of the picture
is more important-the influence of
racketeers on the community.
Law-enforcement oficials, in urg-
ing on Congress to give them q law
with which they could deal the racket
a shattering blow, were not concerned
primarily with the fact that the num-
bers game affords people q chance to
gamble.
They realize that people who want
to indulge the almost-universal in
stinct for chance always can find q
means. They are quite aware also
that social gambling, Of one sort or
another, is widely entrenched, at the
bridge table, at poker and various
other games. Nor do they want to
discriminate against the poor, who,
as our anonymous correspondent
points out, cannot afford the luxury
Of social gambling.
But they are seriously concerned
over the spread Of big-time racketeer-
ing in the National Capital.
They know, as some of them have
told the House District Committee,
that racketeering breeds violence
gunplay, often murder: holdups,
burglaries, all the worst types Of
crime.
On Side Of Underworld.
The men who run the numbers
game are in an illegal business.
Necessarily, whether they choose or
not, they are on the side Of the un-
derworld. They cannot 60 running
to the police with their troubles
instance, when . hijacker grabs a
collectors take at gun point-because
they cannot afford to explain where
they live and what they do for .
living pertinent to any po-
lice inquiry. They prefer to settle
disputes in their own way-to oppose
force with force" as United States
Attorney David A. Pine told the
House District Committee.
Murder grows out of business jeal-
ousies, disputes over which territory
each mob shall prey on, as Police
supt. Ernest w. Brown explained to
the committee.
It is highly significant that in recent
years, as the numbers game COM
paratively new racket-has grown
and spread, homicides, banditry and
housebreaking also have increased In
Washington, at much higher rate
than the growth in population would
account for.
In every community where 1t has
taken hold, those who know it can
attest the racket has proved . breed
ing ground for crime and corrupting
influence.
Washington's new district attorney
calls it "a serious menace to good
order and decent government"
The House District Committee will
resume consideration Of the numbers
legislation Tuesday. with every indi-
cation that bill satisfactory to en-.
forcement officers will be reported out
this week.
