HITLER CONFERS
ON AXIS POWERS
ANNOUNCEMENT RELATIVE
TO FUTURE POLICY
EXPECTED SOON
,Ry A.. lated PRESS,

BERLIN, Aug. 12.-Adolf Hit
Ter is in conference with dig
nitaries representing Benito Mus
solini, dictator of Italy, over this
weekend, and important an
nouncement concerning the future
policy of the axis powers is ex-
pected at the conclusion of the
get-together.
1t is reported that Hitler is MAX
ing strong effort to get Italy to
unite with Hungary in economic
and military alliances to make the
case for the Berlin axis
stronger in regard to the Danzig
situation. Some such union is re-
quired, according to Hitler's be-
lief, to bring Poland into line.
English diplomats, on the other
hand, attached small significance
to the conference, pointing out
that Mussolini had already ex-
pressed his desire on the Danzig
crisis by hoping that Hitler
would undertake no aggression
move at this time" England
chooses to surmise that the con-
ference is in the nature of cour-
tesy calls on the part of the
Italians.
The German press, however,
continues its barrage of headlines
by hurting more accusations at
Poland and England, even includ-
ing France, in general statements
of plotting against Hitler and the
German people.

grouped in serials like railroad

tables accurately so as to avoid
confusion and conflict at bottle
necks require experience. In

TO dismiss b. M. Duncan from
his position as General Manager
of the District. and at the same
time indicated that his successor
would be appointed by Sepfem-
Der l. at which time Mr.. Duncan's
work is TO finish.
The board, meeting in District
headquarters on Pigeon Key this
morning, successfully rode
through" what promised TO be a
stormy session" when chairman
Kennedy halted Paul Marks from
reading a statement in which al
legged tampering with Board
meeting minutes by r. Z. Alex
ander, Mr.. Duncan's secretary,
was charged. Commissioner Ken
nedy stopped the proceedings and
moved that Marks be prohibited
from making any further state
ments on the ground of Bringing
personalities into the scene, and
the motion carried i
Duncan's reaction to the charg
es was to invite attorney Marks
outside to settle the issue then
and there.
Another move made by the
board was the dismissal of Paul
Marks as attorney of the board,
by vote of three to two.
Both the dismissal of Duncan
and Marks was explained chiefly
on the grounds of retrenchment
The person who will succeed
Duncan will receive $3.50 per
month, in contrast to the $500
salary received by Duncan.

car. bus and truck will pay an
additional fifty cents per vehicle,

that the present charge for a
driver and car now is one dol
