RIO DE JANEIRO. May 14.-The
German government today protested to
Brazil against the arrest of six German
citizens as suspects in the abortive
Fascist rising Wednesday against
President Getulio Vargas.
The Brazilian government. however,
assured the German Embassy the six
were arrested as individuals and that
there was no indication they were
agents of any foreign power or Or
ganization.
The assurance was given despite the
fact President Vargas flatly accused
the Fascist Greenshirts of having "for-
eign help" in their short Lived uprising
against his regime He did not name
the foreign source Of their aid
President Vargas declared the In
tegralists had seized upon "all possible
sources without regard to their origin
and unheeding the fact that with
foreign help they compromised the
sovereignty of Brazil"
The Vargas government in recent
months has taken drastic action to
restrain German Nazi activities il:
Brazil, but officials said there was no
concrete evidence the Nazis supported
the Integralist revolt.
The main search for revolt suspects
centered on the fugitive Integralist
chieftain. Plino Salgado, who has

mary campaign in Pennsylvania, has
never made speech in the State since

he has been tongue-tied in this CAM

The answer is easy. Mr.. Lewis is a

HULL-ROPER ROW
DENIED BY EARLY
President Studying Plan to
Have Joint Reports by
Attaches, He Says.

President Roosevelt is directing a
joint study by the State and Com
merce Departments that is expected
to result in reorganizat ton of the
commercial attache reporting system
prevailing in American embassies
abroad
In announcing the reorganization
plan today Stephen Early, secretary to
the President, said the principal pro-
posal is that the trade advisers here
after should report jointly to Secre-
tary Hull and Secretary Roper instead
OF solely to Mr.. Roper as at present.
At the same time, Mr.. Early denied
reports that the study has led to a
disagreement between the two cabinet
omcers and that this disagreement
might lead to the resignation of one
or the other. He also denied that
the new program called for transfer
OF the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce from the Commerce to the
State Department.
Joint Reports Suggested.
Although it has been suggested in
some quarters. Mr.. Early told report
ers, that commercial attaches. being
assigned to embassies. should be ap-
pointed by the Secretary of State
rather than by the Secretary of Com
merce. the ultimate decision probably
will be that the attaches should be
appointed, as now, by the Commerce
Secretary and detailed to the State
Department with instructions to re-
port jointly to both departments.
Mr.. Early said the present system
OF reporting directly to the Commerce
Department does not make for eff
ciency." He pointed out that occa-
sionally the matters reported by COM
mercial attaches have distinct diplo-
matte angles which should be known
to the State Department. To remedy
this defeat in the system, the presi-
Dental secretary said, the President
has joined in study by Secretaries
Hull and Roper and Undersecretary
OF State Sumner Welles.
Auto Example Cited.
Mr.. Early cited several instances to
show the need for joint reports by the
trade attaches. He pointed out that
signs recently have been posted in
France urging the public to buy
French automobiles" and that ap-
parently these notices were placed
with the knowledge Of the French
government. Naturally, he said, this
becomes subject of diplomatic i'm
portance, but, under the present sys-
tenn, the trade attaches report on this
campaign may or may not" reach the
State Department.
There would be no change in the
reporting methods of Army and Navy
attaches of the embassies, Mr. Early
said because the data they collect is
highly confidential.

BUDAPEST. May 14.-Hungary's
new strong man" premier, Bella
Imredi. today announced Hungary is
drawing closer to the Rome Berlin
axis of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mus
solini.
In speech in Parliament outlining
foreign policy 1mredi said "Our re-
lations with Germany are growing
more intimate" and stronger also with
Italy. The same, he asserted. holds
true for Poland.
The new premier, who formed q
government yesterday to combat un-
authorized Hungarian Nazi move
ments. said his policy would continue
to be AN active, peace policy"
Wide Divergence on Peace.
1mredi pointed out. however, that
there were wide differences of opinion
as to how to establish peace. Hun
gary has an active revisionist element
demanding return Of territory lost in
the postwar settlements.
"On one side are those who believe
in maintenance Of the status quo and
on the other those who stress the i'm
portance Of genuine and just peace" "
ne said.
1mredi, who yesterday succeeded
koloman DArany as premier. had two
bills ready to push through Parlia-
ment-both aimed at Ferenc Szalasi,
the Hungarian Hitler" and leader of
anti-government NaN groups.
One Of the measures would provide
more drastic penalties for disturbing
public peace; the other would tighten
restrictions on the right of public as

Nazi Experiment by Government.
1mredi's plan for ending the politi-
cal uncertainty which caused Dar-
anyi's resignation contained an un-
spoken assurance that Nazi and Fas-
cist ideas would be tried out thor
oughly in Hungary. but the expert
ment will be conducted by the gov
ernment-not by opposition groups.

night disclosed that Hungary Is to
