GEN. MOSELY ON
 WITNESS STAND

Healey told him the committee thought 1t best for him to answer questions first.
 Are you ever going to give me a chance to make this statement?" i Moseley said, raising his voice. T want the American people to know the facts. Do you object to hearing this?"
 T was on the Pacific coast when this came out. You advertised me from coast to coast in things I knew nothing about. My only offense is that I'm a patriotic American citi- gen."
 Moseley said that Rep. Jacob Thorkelson, R., Mont, who entered the hearing room with him and sat nearby, would bring this all out on the House floor" Moseley also was accompanied by two other men whom he introduced as my counsel, MT. Sullivan, and my assistant counsel"
 M0seley Examined
 Whitley began detailed examina- tion of Moseley on his relations with Campbell, Dudley Pierrepont Gil- bert, wealthy New Yorker who al- legedly helped finance Campbell's activities, and George Deatherage of St. Albans, w. Va, chief of the Knights of the White Camellia, an organization formed along lines somewhat similar to the Ku Klux Klan.
 Moseley said he had known Campbell three or four years and had conferred with him openly in

 8. Enact farm relief without bu- reaucratic controls.
 g. Keep America out of war through an insulating" neutrality policy.
 10. Abandon "all anti-constitu- tional activities"
 His Tax Proposals
 The incentive tax plan has been considered by congressional investi- gators without result, but Vanden- berg's two other tax proposals ap- pear now to be on the way to enact- ment. The wage-hours bill was passed despite his protest but sug- gested amendment of the Social Security Act is almost 8 certainty. Amendment of the Wagner Labor Relations Act, however, probably will not be accomplished at this session.
 More specifically, Vandenberg has outlined his Farm Relief program as a protective tariff, two price system. He says the farmer must "have complete possession of his own do- mentic market" to the exclusion of all competitive agricultural products. He favors a domestic price under complete tariff protection, and fed- eral aid in storing and marketing surplus crops for what they would bring in the world markets.
 Higher Taxes to Balance Budget
 Replying to direct questions in 1886 when he was 8 potential Re- publican presidential nominee, Van- denberg said higher taxes were ne- cessary to balance the budget. He advocated return to relief to the states with federal cash contribu- tions but dissolution of the federal relief bureaucracy. He favored fed- eral-state matching of old age pen- sion contributions and an increase in "meagre" federal aid when pblic credit would permit. He denounced the Townsend plan, and opposed currency or credit imitation and remonetization of silver or man. aged currency. He advocated cur- rency stabilization, probably tied to gold. He opposed New Deal recipro- cal tariffs and proclaimed himself a "congenital tariff protectionist..

 Went There November, 1938
 The bulk of the Germans went to Spain in November, leS6, the news papers said, when it became appar- ent that the Nationalists were un- likely to win quickly. This largest contingent included Q self suffi- cient air corps, equipped with planes, and anti-air gun units, which were queckly merged, with the troops already in Spain, into a single Ger man technicians organized military training schools through which more than 50,000 Spaniards passed, it was said.
 Nine Italian Ships
 Cadiz, Spain, May 31. -- (UP) - Twenty thousand Italian troops who fought for the Nationalists in the civil war boarded nine Italian troop ships today and will sal for Naples tomorrow.
 The Italians left their airplanes and 80 per cent of their war mater ial in Spain, for the use of the Na- tionalists. The remainder, mostly artillery, tanks and trucks, was taken to Italy, the guns to be re-bored and the trucks and tanks reconditioned.
 Ramon Serrano Suner, Nationalist minister of interior, was expected here today to accompany the Italians back to Italy as representative of General Francisco Franco.

A travelling puppet show is corn- ing to Waterbury tomorrow. A travelling puppet show is something in America, although for centuries such shows have wandered all over Europe. and they have even delight cd crowds in ancient Rome and Athens. Nobody knows how or when puppets originated, maybe on the banks of the Ganges in India, may be in Egypt before the days of the pharachs. They are found in the folklore of the earliest civilizations and even the North American In- dianS, before the white man came. used puppets in their tribal cere- monies.
 This spring saw the first national puppet exposition 8 success in New York. Among the exhibitors was Bill Baird, national puppeteer, who designed and built the Shell 'Puppet Show which has been loaned to Wa terburp police for use in their cru sade against "screwdrivers. Baird's Puppets have been features of sev- eral worlds fairs and of stage shows at the Radio City Music Hall and elsewhere.
 During the time the crusade against "screwdrivers" is being con- ducted here, the Shell Puppet Show will give performances in various parts of the city demonstrating the evils of "screwdriving."
 The fast moving puppet show will put on several performances each hour. The scene of action is any American town. Both dialogue and pantomime are for adults, but chill dren in audiences elsewhere have taken great delight in the show, particularly the small, funny auto mobiles that move across the pup pet stage. Characters include a truck driver who knows how to get tough, a courteous driver, beauti- full lady and "screwdriver" who policeman who tries to straighten makes plenty of trouble for the things out.

 T never entertained him, , Moseley said, emphasizing his tes- timony by pounding on the witness table.
 Moseley said that after his re- tirement from the army last year he began receiving reports from Campbell and Gilbert on an alleged subversive movement against the government. He said, however, he never had met Gilbert and the re- ports interested him "only when they checked with information from other sources"
 Receives Reports
 Moseley said after he retired late last year, he received the Campbell Gilbert reports on alleged subver- sive activities and that Campbell warned him he "did not know how much credence to give them"
 Our relc tions were very infre- quent and casual" he explained.
 Whitley asked if Moseley knew of any plans to take over the govern ment in order to rid the country of subversive forces. MoSeley said he did not, emphasizing that "all these men that came to me were impressed that these things they had in mind should be done lawfully"
 He said he was aware that Camp bell knew Deatherage, and explain ed that many of the heads of pa- triotic organizations throughout the country know each other" He said he knew of no activity by Campbell in disseminating anti-Jewish pro-

 Ashore Commander Albert E. Stone, chaplain of the navy yard, conducted a prayer for the dead in the yard cemetery on the banks of Piscatauqua river. The survivors, led by their commander, Lieutenant Oliver F. Naquin, joined bereaved relatives at the service.
 "It was in the performance of duty, every man at his appointed station, that they were cut of from us," Commander Stone said.
 Two Hero Divers
 Yesterday it was revealed that the two navy divers who risked death to ascertain that no life existed on the Squalus were John Mihalowski of Worcester, Mass, and William Badders, who was decorated with the navy cross for his work in sal- vaging the submarine S-51. They went down in the rescue chamber, which in four previous trips had brought B survivors to the surface attached it to the hatch over the aft torpedo compartment, and cau- tiously adjusted air pressure. Too much sir would have blown the chamber from the hatch, while too little would have permitted sea water to rush in. One glance inside the hatch was enough to convince the divers that the compartment was flooded and the lid was slammed shut.

 The same action was taken by the house. The bill had been reported out of committee favorably and the concurring development virtually killed it for this session.

vorably by the cities and boroughs committee of which Socialist Sen. Audubon Secor, Bridgeport. is Senate chairman.
 Unless the coalition holds together for the remaining week of the ses- sion, the administration was in danger of losing heavily in the dis position of judgeships, county com- misSionershipS and other important controversial measures which were left untouched until the closing days of the General Assembly. The governor conferred with leg islative leaders this morning but apparently gained no headway in adjusting the Bridgeport bill dis pute.
 Meanwhile, the Senate was due, during the afternoon, to delve into the judgeships, the House-approved budget, the automobile inspection law and other issues.
 Disagreement on Judges
 There was disagreement over the allotment of minor court judges, Democrats claiming Republicans consented to a fifty-fifty split but insisted upon naming the Demo- cratic jurists. There was little possi- bility, however, that the situation which arose at the end of the 1887 session would be repeated. Two years ago the judgeships fight car- ried on until the final day and the legislature adjourned without ap- proving any appointments. The gov- ernor was compelled to name his own judges. They held once until this February when the legislature extended their terms until July 1 % as to avoid appointments at the start of the session.
