$4,000 tee for the L. w. Robert
firm of architects and engineers, At

struction of a $4,881, 900 Georgia

Robert, secretary Of the DemOcra-

cleared of charges of lobbying" for

Ickes said the Georgia State De-

it so chose, but that no PWA money

This provision, he said, violated
the letter of the contract between
the applicant and PWA, which pro-
vided that the offer of a $2,381 400

French Hint

Paris, June 17.-(AP)-Hints of
suspected sabotage began to creep
into sections of the Paris press today
as the nation mourned the disap-
pearance Of the 2,O00-ton French sub
marine Phenix with II men aboard
off the coast of Indo-China.
Writers in several newspapers
asked questions like, "Can this be
the law Of average, that three demo-
cracies lose three submarines in
less than a month";"
The communist paper, Human

which burned April 10 at her Lee

Tientsin, June 7-(AP)-Tense
British-Japanese relations were ag-

dierS arrest C. A. Smith, a British
exporter, following an argument be-
tween him and Chinese policeman
outside the British concession.
Smith allegedly struck the Chinese
in the face. An unidentified COM

shot dead a man believed to be a
White Russian. The British consul
general took steps to obtain Smiths
release.

belief that only the solution of the
larger issues between Japanese and
foreigners could end a BritiSh-Japa-

French concessions, imposed four

A definite air of pessimism and a
fatalistic acceptance of their situa-

Seven Alleged Mem

Held in Roumania;

Bucharest, Roumania, June IT,
(AP)-DiscOvery Of a widespread
plot to assassinate King Carol was
announced by police today. Seven
men were under arrest charged with
preparing quantities of hand gren-
AIDES for the attempt
The police said the arrested men
were identified as members Of the
outlawed iron guard.
The government suppressed news
of the alleged plot in Bucharest.
Premier Calinescu, Foreign Minis
ter Gafencu and other members Of
the government also were reported
marked for death by the band
Police said that 'half hundred"
arrests were expected shortly.
Scores of detectives started raids
on homes of former iron guard mem
bers. Twenty-Five hand grenades
were reported discovered in the home
of one of the arrested men.
1t was the third assassination plot
reported against Carol or members
of the government since the first of
the year. In January a premature
bomb explosion led to the arrest of
iron guard members, who police &C
cused of plotting to kill Carol.
twenty-five guardists were arrested
early in February on the charges of
plotting to kill Calinescu. Great
stocks of firearms and explosives
were found in the home of one of
the arrested men.
Today's arrests came as a surprise
to the capital, for the government

Vote Comes After H.
Hour Session, Longest
In Recent Y e ar s.;
Roosevelt Determina-
ton for Huge Spend
ing-Lending Sure

Washington, June 17.-(AP)- A
weary House put an emphatic "okay''
early today on the bill to provide
$1,735, 100000 for relief during the
year starting July 1, abolish such
WPA projects as theatrical produc-
tons and otherwise restrict work re-
lief spending.
The bill was passed at the end of
a tumultuouS session which lasted
more than IA hours, one of the long
est in recent years. Speaker Bank
head announced the roll call vote was
373 to 81. Nine Democrats and IL
Republicans ballotted against the
measure. 1t now goes to the Senate,
where leaders promised swift con-
sideration, in order to replenish WPA
Golfers when current appropriations
run out.
A woodworking coalition of Re-
publicanS and some Democrats, aug
mented by a sprinkling of members
who usually are administration sup
porters, beat back repeated efforts to
eliminate or modify some Of the pro-
posed restrictions on the relief agency
and to increase the funds for various
phases of the relief program.
Other developments:
Belief that President Roosevelt
will propose to Congress a new pro-
gram of federal lending to stimu-
late business was strengthened by
the action Of one of his foremost fin
ancial advisors, Mariner Eccles, in
strongly advocating such OUTLAWS. Ec-
cles, chairman of the Federal Re-
serve Board, took the lead in an eff
fort to muster public support for the
new lending proposals.

Relief Bill Is Passed
By Big House Majority
Air Base Saved
By Warren Move

Washington, June 17.-(AP)-
Representative Warren, Democrat,
North Carolina, may have saved
the coast guard air base at EliZ-
abeth City, N. c., and hundreds of
federal projects now under way
from being cut off from WPA
funds.
Warren was one of the first to
discover that the provisions in the
1910 relief appropriation bill as
it came from committee, prohibit
ing grants for federal projects,
would affect those already under
way and projects for which fed
eral funds had been appropriated
for materials with the expectation
WPA money would be used for
labor.
Elizabeth City air base, now
under construction, came in the
latter classification. AS a result
of Warren's discovery, the House
Appropriations Committee agreed
to amendments insuring WPA
funds for such undertakings, and
they we're quickly agreed to by
the House.

Death of Entire Crew
Is Certain; Water Is
Very Deep

Saigon, French Indo-China, June II.
-(AP)-An official French govern
ment communique said today II Of
ficerS and sailors were lost aboard
the French submarine Phenix, which
disappeared Thursday off Cam-Ranh
naval vase.
Death for the men, whose number
previously was given by officials as
So, was considered certain" the
communiquc said The depth of the
ocean and two days failure to To-
cate the submarine were advanced
as reasons for lack of hope. Naval
authorities calculated that the
Phenix's air supply was exhausted
today Disappearance of the Phenix,
one of the fast submarine units in
the French navy, marked the third
great submarine disaster in less than
a month. It followed loss of the
American Squalus with rs lives, and
the British Thetis, which was the
sealed tomb of SO.
Even if located, naval authorities
expected great salvage difficulties
would be encountered in attempting
to learn the secret of the sunken
craft. In places, the China Sea is
more than 800 feet deep, and pressure
on the submarine, lying on the ocean
floor, would give salvagers and div
ers an immense task.
Authorities kept in constant touch
with homeland officials. Families of
the victims were notified yesterday
that hope had been abandoned for
the crew, commanded by 43-year- old
Lieutenant BouchacOurt.

Legislative News
BY c. G.. MANN,
Representative from Pine County

On Monday of last week the rules
for the conduct of the House of Rep
resentatives during the session were
printed in the Journal of the House,
and on Tuesday they were adopted
with only one small change. This
change brought on lot of argument,
the rule being that there should be
bill. An amendment was offered to
make it five, and although most of
us did not care whether it was three
or five, it gave lot of members a
chance to test their lungs, but the
amendment was finally adopted
However, most bills will probably
only have one or two authors, as
before.
1t may seem to many people that
argument over rules is a waste of
time, but in reality it saves many
hours of time during the session to
have rules of procedure that must
be followed. There was one new
rule adopted, however, that will un-
doubtedly cause some dissatisfaction,
and that rule was that no member
can bring a visitor into the House
chamber, when in session, without
first obtaining pass from the Speak
er, and then the visitor will be seated
alongside the Speakers rostrum
rather than among the members as
has been done in the past. This
means that even wives of members
will not be allowed to sit beside their
husbands during sessions, but must
be seated up in front. The argu-
ment was that it was conclusive to
better order in that there would not
be so much visiting, and that with
the new voting machines there was
danger of visitors pushing the but
tons when the member was absent
Following the adoption of the rules,
the committee appointments were an
nounced. Your representative was
appointed to the Tax committee, the
Relief, Public Welfare and Refor-
estation committees and as chairman
of the Public Domain committee,
held last session by the old member
from Minneapolis, S. A. StockWell.
Rollin Johnson of Forest Lake, is
chairman of Taxes, this year, and
