Carol BGLks
Nazi Coup
Swiftly

BUCHAREST, April 10 U.N.SD.
Plans for a coup that would have
showed King Carol into the back
ground and set up Corneliu Zeala
Codreanu as Rumanian dictator,
were believed frustrated today
with mass arrests of the Fascist
Iron Guard" Arrests, according
to one report, totaled 1865, with
eight priests among the prisoners
When Codreanu and other
leaders of the Iron Guard were
taken into custody, police said he
plotted march on Bucharest like
Benito Mussolini made on Rome.
Success would have put King
Carol in opposition similar to King
Victor Emanuel.
Carol acted with smashing ruth
lesSness. He Immediately ban
ished General John Antonescu, q
friend Of Codreanu and q former
war minister. Thirty-eight.year-
old Codreanu faces detention on
Snake Island, Rumania's Alcatraz.
Many other high government Off
Gals were arrested in the purge.
Authorities are now confident
they have wiped out the extreme
right, and they predict a period of
internal peace and quiet.

'PACTS EXPECTED
TO AID PEACE
in WEST EUROPE
BY CHARLES A. SMITH


LONDON. April 10 G.N.S),
A new diplomatic era of realism"
which will go far in deciding Euro
pean history for the next few
years dawned with Easter Monday.
Following the signing of the
momentous British-Italian agree
ment, moves were set under way
at once for parallel French-Italian
and Anglo-German understand
ingS.
UNION FOR PEACE
Almost amounting to a new
Locarno," these rapprochements
are expected to knit the four
great western European nations.
fascist and democratic, into q
union for the preservation Of
peace.
But France and Britain at the
same time drew closer together for
defense against fascism-just in
case.
One of the results the French
hope for is agreement on more
frequent consultations between the
French and British general staffs.
These talks, providing for mutual
defense, have been going on since
Nazi Germany denounced the old
Locarno pact Of mutual security.

Great a totalitarian regime.
Konoye has been under constant
pressure for weeks to proclaim a
military dictatorship and threat
ened to resign unless he is per-
mitted to preserve a balance be-
tween civil and military factions.
ALLEVIATE PEOPLE
Konoye takes the view that in
auguration of a Fascist regime
would ALLEVIATE the populace and
thus cripple the government IN its
efforts to bring about successful
conclusion of the Chinese war.
Several prominent members of
both the Minseito and Seyukai
parties, however, maintain that
recent Setbacks suffered by the
Japanese army in China can be
overcome only if the entire ma
ton Is nationaliZed and regi-
mented on Fascist lines.
Konoye thus far has successfully
rebuffed all attempt to proclaim
him q Fascist dictator. Recent
rumorS state the Fascist group is
now favoring Admiral No5umasa
Suetsugu, minister of the interior,
rs totalitarian ruler.
OUTSPOKEN MILITARIST
Suetsugu has been the most out
spoken of all japanese militarists
in discussing the possibility of
eventual war between the United
States and Japan.
Resignation of Konoye and ap-
pointment of Suetsugu as head of
a Fascist subjugation party"
would wreck the political power
and influence of both the Min
Seito and Seiqukai groups.
OUTLOOK GRAVE
The immediate outlook is be
lieved to be grave, although there
is no concrete evidence political
changes are actually in sight.
Observers feel, however, that in
creasing pressure from the army
and navy may precipitate Ko-
noye's overthrow to divert public
attention from the stalemated
situation in China and growing
domestic nervousness.
Individual members of the Diet
are doing all in their power to
forestall suspension of their rap
idly diminishing constitutional
prerogativeS-a step certain to
lead to eventual dissolution.
Gravity of the situation was
disclosed by the newspaper Asa1i,
which revealed Prince Kimmochi
Saionji, last of the genro or
"elder statesmen" had been con-
suited in the crisis.

Youth Loses ;
Fingers In
Explosion

Henry Rouzand, 16 year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. l.. RouZand, was
the victim of a serious pre-Fourth
of July accident a week ago Wed
neSday at his grandfather dairy
ranch when a piece of dynamite
exploded in his hand causing the
loss of two fingers and the thumb
of his right hand. He was rushed
Immediately to st. JosephS Hos
pital and was attended by Doctors
Zenas Noon and j. S. Gonzalez.
The amputation of his two fin
gers and his thumb was necessary.
The remaining fingers on the hand
are seriously injured but there is
still hope they may be saved.
The accident was brought about
when Henry for some reason, think
ing the dynamite would be hard
too light, held it in his hand and
placed a firecracker about an inch
and one half inside of it. One of
his brothers lit the fuse of the
firecracker for him and before he
could throw it the dynamite ex-
ploded leaving his fingers on his
right hand dangling.
After three and one half days in
the hospital Henry was allowed to
return to his home at their ranch
