fined 10 Home with
Bad Foot

PARIS, Jan. "a fight today
between Rightist party members
and a handful of former Communist
Deputies marked a riotous begin
ming for the 1910 session of the
French Parliament.
The Communist Party was out
lawed in France shortly after the
start of the war.
AS the session opened, twelve
former Communist Deputies, some
of them in uniform, appeared or
the floor of the Chamber as
Georges Levy Alphandery, Dean OIL
the Chamber, was about to deliver
a speech just after the session was
declared open.
When Rightist Deputies objected
to the presence of the former Com
munists an uproar followed and
Alphandery was temporarily sus-
pended from the session.
Premier Daladier did not attend
the session because of a fracture
foot. 1t was undisclosed how Dala-
der suffered the injury.

New u. 5. Army Weapons
Are Solving Problems Of
Warfare Waged in Air

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9. - The
United States army has found
three answers to the important
problem of air raid defense in new
devices, Col. G.. M. Barnes, noted
ordnance expert of the army, has
revealed.
In an article prepared for Army
Ordnance, a magazine Published
by the Army Ordnance Associa-
ton. Colonel Barnes said the new
.3O-caliber semi-automatic shoulder
rifle, adopted by the army, lis a
potent antidote" for "hedge-hop-
ping" airplanes used to strafe
ground troops.
For the protection of front-lire
positions, the newly developed 81
nm. anti-aircraft gun has proved
itself much more effective than the
machine gun, and for air raid pro-
lection at night, new sound locat-
ors and searchlights make the. task
of bombing squadrons increasingly
difficult the expert said.
The new devices have been de
veloped by the army as a result OF
new problems created by modern
warfare as employed by German
flyers during the war in Spain
the Hitler invasion of Poland ano
the European war.
lone of the most difficult tasks
of anti-aircraft defense" Colonc
Barnes wrote, lis that of provid-
ing protection to the front-lint
soldiers against low flying air
planes. The 'hedge-hopper' car
take advantage of cover and APP
proach it's objective often unseer
until it is over the target.
"A new weapon which shows
great promise in combating thu
loW-flying plane recently h a!
been adopted by the army. Thi!
new weapon is the semi-automati'
shoulder rifle, caliber 80. Thi
rifle can be fired by the average
soldier approximately two and {
quarter times as fast as the Spring.

Guam Question Up Anew
5O,0O0-ton Warships
Talked of

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Admiral
Harold Stark, Chief of Naval Opera
tons, today told Congress the Navy
is seeking four million dollars to
carry out the much proposed i'm
provement program for the tiny
Pacific Island of Guam which leg
islators rejected last year.
Starks statement caused an out
burst of questioning from members
Of the House Naval Affairs Com
mittee, who fought the Guam pro-
ject at the session of year ago.
Stark said the request for funds
are included in the budget for the
14th Naval District, Hawaiian area
and explained that procedure was
adopted because the Navy didn'i
need any Congressional authorize
ton for work in that district
The Admiral said work proposed
would be chiefly concerned with
dredging for underwater runWayE
and in construction of breakwaters
He also told the House Nava
Affairs Committee that presen
studies indicated the Navy vii
build $4,000 or 52,0O0-ton battle
ships.

Danish Ship Bombed, Semi
Down Another Craft
Hit by Machine Guns

LONDON, Jan. 9.-Thirty-t three
men were wounded, mostly by ma
chine gun fire, and one Danish
vessel was bombed and sunk to-
day as German warplanes are re-
ported to have attacked eleven
ships off Great Britain's coast.
Crowds on the cliffs Of the north
east coast of Scotland saw bombs
from German planes hit the stern
of the Danish vessel which sank
in about three hours after receiv-
ing the fatal blow.
The crew of this ship, name of
which is not disclosed, were res
cued by nearby vessels.
So near to the coast was the
encounter that onlookers heard the
rattle of the machine gun bullets
on the deck of small coastal YES
sci. name not given, which was
attacked by the Nazi bombers. The
small ship attempted to make a
run for port, on the east coast of
Scotland but was caught. One man
was killed by the machine gun fire
when the German bombers swooped
low over the craft and SO others
were wounded.

Tells Empire 1910 TO Be
FatefuI-Worst of War
Yet 10 Come
ASSURES FINLAND
AID TO Be GREAT
Brifisher Bitterly Con-
dennis Germans for
Treatment, HomefoIk

LONDON, Jan 9.-Premier Cham
berlain, in a militant address to the
British Empire, declared British aid
to Finland is Ito be no mere for
mality," and said events OF the war
with Germany thus far are mere
ly preliminary" to the main struggle
to come.
Chamberlain said: "It is only on
the sea that the war may said to
be in full operation"
The Prime Minister, speaking in
a voice choked with emotion, de-
clared the British French alliance
should become permanent in the
interests of peaceful reconstruc-
toni after the war is over.
Chamberlain also reviewed the
progress of hostilities to date in an
address at the Lord Mayors lun-
cheon at Mansion House.
To Be Fateful Year
1t was Chamberlain first pub
lie appearance of the new year,
which year he said would be fate
full one for the history of the world,
saying the unbelievable quiet of
the first months of the war could
only be interpreted as the quiet
before the storm"
Speaking of Finland, Chamberlain
said, land now it is Finland's turn
to be attacked by power with whom
Germany made an unholy pact for
which she sets the example of ag
gression"
Chamberan continued. Finland
is fighting against forces of I'M
scrupulous violence just as we our
selves. She is fighting for the same
thing, for liberty and for justice.
That valiant people can rest as
sured our response to that resolu-
ton which was passed SO recently
at the meeting of the League in Gen
eva will be no mere formality."
No Vndictive Designs
Chamberlains comments referred
to the resolution of the League to
aid Finland.
Bitterly he said leaders of the
German people would like to treat
the British as they are treating
their conquered people, but we on
our side have no such vindictive
designs
