official investigation of attacks
upon the palace Of Theodore Car
dinal Innitzer was under way to-
day under the direction of Joseph
Buerckel, Nazi governor of Austria.
Buerckel came here from Berlin,
together with the Papal Nuncio,
MSgr. Cesare OrSenigo, to inspect
the damage to the cardinals
home.
After return to Berlin Buerckel
is expected to recommend severe
punishment for those responsible
for recent anti-Jewish and anti
Catholic incidents. Vienna police,
it was reported. might also be pun
ished if it is established that they
intervened too late.
Despite the efforts Of Nazi all-
thoritieS to prevent such out
breaks, there was demonstration
at the cardinals palace again last
night, when several thousand per
sons gathered there.

record of the carriers since their
inception in an effort to show
that the past "sins" in overcapi-

CIO PICKE S
STATE IN
NEVADA STRIKE

TRTfCKEE, Cal, Oct. II Q.N.SD.
In an action unprecedented both
in scope and object, CIO unionistS
picketed the entire State of Ne
vada.
The surprising announcement
was made by John A. Walker. Of
Washington, D. c., secretary
treasurer of the tunnel construc-
tion workers organizing committee
that union members will patrol
highways leading into the State
from California and Utah.
Carrying banners reading "the
State Of Neve1a is unfair to or
ganized labor " the pickets will
urge motorists not to enter that
State. Walker said.
Decision to take the action was
made at a conference of CIC
union men here. The conference
decided that highway No. 40, main
route across Nevada from the Pa.
cific Coast, is unfair
Accordingly instructions were
sent union headquarters at Sac
ramento and Salt Lake City to
begin picketing.
The move was in retaliation for
erection Of Notifications near
Verdi, New, by deputy sheriffs to
prevent California CIO members
from picketing a road repair
project on highway No. 40.

Playing what many of their lead
ers consider their trump card in
the hearings before President
RooSevelt's fact-finding board, Ia
Dor spokesmen demanded that the
three-man board find in favor of
a complete overhauling of the
capital structure of the carriers
with the Government in a banker
role.
LAUCK TESTIFIES
Through their leading witness,
w. ]. Lauck, economist, the broth
erhoods also urged the board to de-
termine whether or not the wage
cut had been ordered by "a small
inner group of so-called invest
ment bankers symbolized and
dominated by the private banking
house of j. P. Morgan & Co." in.
stead of the railway operating Of
ficials themselves.
Lauck charged that the bankers
have refused to avail themselves
Of Government credit that would
have averteu the financial crisis
which the railroads now plead, for
"fear that their present, profit

porationS might be impaired" by
restrictions which the Government

PRICE.FIxNG|
CHARGE MADE
At ABC HEARING
Proposed Price ADJ
Ban Draws Fire

Charges Of monopoly and at
tempted price.fixing were hurled
today at the retail-liquor dealers
association by opponents Of a pro-
posed ban on liquor price adver-
tising.
The hearing. conducted by the
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board,
was held in the District Building
board room. Approximately $50
persons attended, crowding the
room beyond capacity. Extra
chairs were brought in, and still
dozen of men stood pressed against
the rear walls.
Bitter debate marked the hear
ing, principally between Manuel
Davis, counsel for the association,
which is supporting the proposed
regulation, and Leo A. Rover, for
mer District Attorney, represent
ing Clark's Liquor Store.
FEARS MONOPOLY
In addition to Mr.. Rover. an
other former District Attorney,
Leslie G. Garnett, appeared in op-
position to the regulation, repre-
senting a liquor store,
Mr.. Rover argued that the ban
on advertising. which, he said, also
would prohibit the posting Of
prices on liquor store shelves,
would tend to raise prices and
create a monopoly. r
Directing his remarks to Mr..
Davis, he described him as ian un-
willing witness trying to hide
something"
"After ALL" he said, "the pub
lie has an interest in this matter
and the public is entitled to
know what goes on behind the
doors of the association"
DAVIS REPLIES
In this connection, he said, the
retail liquor dealers association
was attempting to control the local
industry and he further charged
the association was attempting to
toist, by indirect means, a fair
trade practices law on the District,
which Congress refused to pass.
In his opening statement to the
board, Mr.. Davis asserted the as
sociation contended that advertiS-
ing Of liquor prices stimulates
abnormal appetites for liquor"
and declared that such adyertis-
ing created an emergency.
He said members Of the asSocia-
ton were canvassed and that 17S
favored the proposed ban, while
three opposed it.
SEAL DRAGGED IN
Mr.. Rover brought out that Cor
poration Counsel Elwood H. Seal
had been approached on the ques-
ton of whether he favors the
state-store system for the sale of
liquor.
did you not tell the associa-
tion," Rover asked Mr.. Davis,
''that they would have to choose
between, this regulation and
State stores? =. Did you not
tell the association that Mr..
Seal favored State stores?"

|AFL PRESIDENT
ALSO MUST GO,
He SPECIFIES
Sacrifice Offered
To Bring Peace

I.N.S.) John L. Lewis Of
fered today to resign as chair
man of the CIO to bring peace
in the struggle for command
of the nations organized labor,
but he said that William Green
also must step out as president
of the American Federation Of
Labor.
Lewis announcement, made
personally and sadly at his
headquarters here, came as a
stunning surprise. There had
not been the slightest indica-
ton of Lewis willingness to re-
tire from the organization
which he has built almost
single -handedIy.
Special Conference
Correspondents were called to
the CIO leaders offices for Q spe-
cial press confe1ence in the late
morning. Spread, before the bulky
labor leader were reports Of the
resolution adopted at the Amer.
ican Federation of Labor conven.
ton at Houston, Tex, which said
that peace between the CIO and
AFL could be effected only If
Lewis were removed from the Ia
Dor picture.
"You may advise" Lewis be-
gan slowly and grimly, that I
am willing to resign tomorrow
or on any day thereafter as
chairman Of the Committee for
Industrial Organization If Mr..
Green will simultaneously re-
sign as president Of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor"
There was a gasp in the crowd
about Lewis. The CIO leader,
whose customary speech is virile,
spoke in resigned tones. He was
hurt, it appeared, by the vigor Of
the AFL resolution which had
termed the CIO movement as
communistic and an enemy even
to its friends.
Explains Attitude
Significantly, Lewis did not say
that he would resign his presidency
Of the United Mine Workers of
America, the 500 ,000-Strong union
which he headed within the AFL
before the breakup OF the two Ia
Dor organizations. If Lewis re-
mained in this post, he would thus
still be power within any single
movement.
Lewis proceeded:
1T may be possible for the re-
naming leaders Of the A. F. Of
L. and the CIO to conclude a
peace pact, in which event the

HITS ISOLATION
U. S. Will Feel Impact Of
Everything That Happens,
She Declares.

Mrs Franklin D. Roosevelt last night
branded the theory Of isolation as
"one Of the most stupid ideas"
Speaking at Hurst Hall. on the
American University compus. where
six seniors had been initiated into tn.
College Honor Society. she declared
1T is q very pleasant thought that
we can draw little circle around our
country and live to ourselves, bu, We
in America might as well realize that
We are going to feel the impact OF
everything that happens in every other
nation.
I'VE always think that the problems
Of the rest Of the world do not concern
us and then war Is upon us before we
know it. 1t Is true that we are more
fortunate than other nations and
may have little more time. but If
that is going to put us to sleep, then
we are going the same way we have
before"
Mrs. Roosevelt declared that in her
opinion Americas role lies somewhere
between isolation and active alliance
with the democratic powers.
"Co-operation between the demo-
cratic nations" she said. 'is more
complicated than it appears on the
surface"
