Rumania Grants
Demands of
Hitler

BUCHAREST, Rumania Mar. %.
(UP)-A German -Rumanian trade
accord was signed at $50 pm. to-
day, constituting an agreement Of
amazingly wide scope.
It grants Germany concessions
without precedent in modern re-
ations between two sovereign
states.
1t had been expected that the
accord would be signed yesterday
but contrary to reports that it had
been signed, last minute negotia-
tions TO smooth out details caused
the signing to be postponed until
today.
Despite the scope of the treaty,
it was emphasized that Germany
in no wise obtains a dominant
position in Rumanian economy and
that Rumania remains free to con-
clude agreements with other ma
tons.
The accord runs to 1914 when
it can be denounced with one
years advance notice. 1t is anti
cipated that the accord will be
followed by separate agreements
between the various branches of
industries mentioned in it.
The pact is intended TO comply
with Germanys need for imports
and the development of Rumania'S S
production, both for internal con-
sumption and continued trading
with other countries.

Mystery Of Tire
SIashing Cleared
As Trio Confesses

CALEXICO, March 23.-Calexi-
cos tire slashing mystery was
solved today when Spencer Gill,
30, and Ted Thompson, %, con-
fessed to cutting tires on 33 auto
mobiles and trucks in CaleXico and
Mexicali Monday night.
They did the slashing while on
a drunken spree, they said.
Antonio Alive, 25, Mexicali meat
cutter, was involved in the van
dalism, police said, because he ac-
companied Gill and Thompson on
their tour of destruction.
Gill and Thompson were fined
$3.50 each in police court Thurs
day morning. Each paid 500 of the
fine and was released on promise
to pay the remainder in install
ments. The fine was assessed to
pay cost of the destruction.
Alive is held by Mexicali police.

BERLIN, March 23 (UP)-The

italy and Japan probably will be
converted shortly into a military
alliance, reliable sources said to-
night.
The reports that the three pow
ers were planning to put military
teeth into their alliance were con-
sidered a reply to the efforts OF
Britain and France to form a unit
ed European front against Nazi-
Fascist expansion.
Dispatches from Tokyo earlier
today had indicated that Japan
might be ready to consider a mill
tary alliance with Germany and
Italy as a result of developments
in the Far East, where Great
Britain has steadily refused a COM
promise on Japanese demands for

As Percent of
Bonds AIre adv
Put on Deposit

Two hurdles still con-
fronted the Imperial Irriga-
ton district today in put
ting into actual operation a
plan for refunding the dis
trict's S14,250,000 debt:
1.-FiIing of petition in federal
court under the National bank
ruptcy act, and
2.-Approval by the federal court,
automatically forcing dissenting
bondholders to deposit securities
and accept terms of the agreement.
General approval of the refund
ing program, given in Wednesdays
election, will be followed within a
week or ten days with filing a petit
ton, Evan T. Hewes, president of
the district board, said Wednes-
day night.
"A check this afternoon showed
that As per cent of the bondholders
have alredy deposited their hold
ings," he declared. 81 expect we
will have the necessary 81 per cent
within week or ten days and the
petition will be filed Immediately
in federal court"
Deposits of securities have been
made in rapid order, for certifi-
Gates for deposit have been avail
able only about a month. Printing
the certificates was authorized by
the California Districts Securities
commission February Q and they
were not circulated until some time
later.
A clear two thirds of the bond
holders must deposit their securi-
ties before the federal court will
allow the petition. Hewes declined
to make a definite forecast as to
when this will be
