KING CAROL HAS
 ACTED QUICKLY
Continued from Page l)

(Continued from Page D teiepnone building and the radio station here, in addition to creating a scene in front of the royal pal- ace, but reportedly were dislodged from all without serious conse- quences.
 This morning Gen. Victor An- tonescu, former minister of war, entered the palace for a long con- ference. It was recalled that An- tonescu, an army favorite, had been mentioned for the premiership when Bessarabia was ceded to Rus sia two months ago. He had just been released from technical arrest at that time. He once was close friend of Corneliu zelea Codreanu, Iron Guard leader slain with 13 of his followers in 1888 reportedly for trying to escape" while being transferred from one prison to an- other.
 It was understood that Julius Maniu, Transylvanian political leader, also would confer with the king today on his arrival from Cluj.
 Inside the city, hundreds of heavily armed policemen searched for leaders of the latest Iron Guard coup d'etat, which police described as a miserable failure.
 Net Result of Outbreak
 According to police records, the outbreak ended with this net re- suit:
 One policeman given black eye;
 One guard at the royal palace shot in the buttocks;
 Seven young men, ages 20 to B, arrested.
 The police version was:
 Shortly before g p. m. young Iron Guardist rushed from a cafe opposite the left wing of King Carols palace, shouting like wild man." He headed for the double iron gates leading to the palace grounds. Two other Iron Guardists waited at the gate under orders to create scene in the square. In the excitement, one of the youths fired two shots at the palace guard. Three other shots were fired either by Iron Guardists or palace guards. One shot entered the swanky Gina restaurant across the street, mar rowly missing Farnsworth Fowler, American magazine correspondent.
 Within 30 seconds, police said, the three youths had been seized. They were hustled away before passers-by knew what happened.
 Only when police motorcyclists roared past and the palace gates swung shut did the people realize what was happening.
 The youth who ran from the cafe to start the fireworks shouted: Long Live Greater Rumania" Si- multaneously, leaflets signed by the Iron Guard leader, Horia Sima, Showered down from the fifth floor of a building hanking the left wing of the palace. The leaflets demand ed that Carol abdicate in favor of Grown Prince Michael and leave the country because of his opposi- tion to the Iron Guard.

 CTS to guarantee security. These now will be available and the inten- sity of the strain on a single de- stroyer crew will be diminished, thus adding to efficient guardianship.
 Attempted Invasion
 An attempted invasion of the British Isles must be planned on the assumption of no serious attack up- on transports while crossing the channel. Large warships operating in the narrow channel waters run serious danger because of lack of adequate naneuver space.
 Speedy destroyers able to twist and turn at will are the natural challengers of an invading fleet. A flotilla of American ships reinforc- ing the British destroyers and armed speed boats might well scatter and drive back German transports in mid-channel engagements, making landing in force impossible.
 In the Mediterranean the problem of major Italian expedition from Libya directed against Egypt and Suez, largely concerns continuous contact with the home bases. A lengthy campaign would require re- plenishment of troops, munitions, and food from Italy. American de- stroyer could hamper the Italians to a point where Mussolini might have to choose between remaining on the defensive in Libya or send ing forth his battle fleet to risk all in an engagement with the great first-line British warships that re- peatedly have challenged him to come out and fight for Mediter- ranena domination.
 Effects On Morale
 The effect of the American de- stroyer transfer on the morale of Germans and Italians must be con- sidered in estimating the value of the reinforcement. Hitler and Mus solini have repeatedly informed their people that no effective Amer ican aid to Britain could arrive be- fore the war had ended. This prom ise has now been nullified, for it is impossible to deny effectiveness of the sudden strengthening of the British fleet by the addition of nearly twice the number of destroy CTS thus far lost in the war.
 Furthermore, the Italians and Germans inevitably will be uneasy and confused through not knowing whether further unanticipated aid to Britain from the western hemis- phere will be forthcoming if neces- sary. Depressing reactions of this kind are natural. and certain. They may have an eventual bearing on outcome of the war.

 CThere had been reports recently that the Germans might use infra- red lenses in spotting objectiveS in England to bomb during the dark night hours. Infra-red photography has been used with great success by the American air force.)
 Berliners huddled in air raid shelters for 2 1-2 hours early today as British planes droned over the Berlin area and anti?aircraft bat teries blazed in fury of fire. Several times during the raid, fire from anti-aircraft guns lighted the entire northern sky. A British parachute flare could be seen from the United Press offices floating down slowly, shedding a bright orange light. The sound of planes was distinctly audible.
 (Under a propaganda ministry ruling news of air raids is released only after the "all clear" has been sounded and then dispatches must conform to official versions of raidS.)
 A communique on the raid said:
 During the night number of enemy planes flew in over Germany. The majority steeered for Berlin where an alarm was counded shortly after midnight. No bombs were dropped on the capital. British planes skirted the Ruhr but the greater part were forced to return when they reached the River Elbe. particular activity of British and German planes was noted in the Magdeburg section"
 (Magdeburg is in Central Ger many 75 miles west-southwest of Berlin.)
 According to an official statement, British planes attempted to fly into the Berlin area from the northwest shortly after midnight. Most of them failed to pentrate the air defense around the capital, it was said, and returned home after skirting the suburbs of Greater Ber- lin.

 Nazis in their comment on the United States British exchange said that they were neither sur- prised nor excited.
 Fifty destroyers merely mean a cost to Germany of 50 Stuka dive bombers, which she can well afford" a spokesman said.
 A source close to the high com. mand said, however, that the hour was nearing when Britain would come to know Adolf Hitler's secret weapon.

 Rome, September 4-UP)-The United States British destroyers- naval bases deal involves the United States in the European conflict, Vir- ginio Gayda, close to the foreign of- flee, wrote in the authoritative Giornale D'Italia today.
 "rhis deal increasingly involves the United States in the European war, which does not concern them,' '' Gayda wrote. Tt is Q hard blow to the pride of the British navy and constitutes an unexpected admission of losses suffered"
 Responsible informants said meanwhile that Italy and Germany intend to give "serious considera. ton" to the Washington- London arrangement. They declined to ihdi- cate what action might be taken.
 fnformaiits assailed the trade ai q uniiateral interpretation of the Monroe Doctrine by which the United States insisted that European powers should not "meddle" in American affairs while the United States "intsrvened" in European affairs.

(COnClQueQ rom rage seize an automobile driven by Mrs. Zeke Williams.
 Earlier, Voncille Williams, 16, one of the two girls, emerged from the swamps near Belleview and at tempted to make a deal with the posse of more than 1000 men sour rounding the area.
 Refused to Bargain
 Drake said the spokesman for the posse refused to bargain and the girl, covered by the convicts' wea- pons, went back into the swamps. He added the girl apparently was "in good condition"
 Heavy rifle fire was heard about three miles north of here, indicating that the posse may have contacted some of the desperadoes.
 All north Louisiana towns were warned of the Hinton Kidnapping. It was believed that Hinton and his abductors had passed Monroe, north of here, by circling around the city.
 Columbia, La., Sept. 4(UP)- Three Arkansas convicts surren- dered today with their hostages to Angola prison guards at Fishers lane, about two miles from Colum- bia.
 A. L. Hinton, local cotton ginner, who had been kidnapped by the other two escaped convicts, was released from his automobile near Monroe.
 Voncille Williams, 16-year-old hostage of Rayville, was rescued shortly before the three desperadoes surrendered with Gladys Diamond, 16, and Jerry Harigill, IT. All three were reported unharmed, except for a few scratches.
 Miss Williams came out of the swampS to make deal with the posse. A spokesman for the group refused and the group refused and the girl returned to the woods. Posse men followed her and rescued her, A little later they found her captors and the other hostages.
 After Hinton was released, the two convicts sped away in his 1883 model automobile.
 Reporters Escape
 Two reporters from a Monroe, La, radio station escaped from several of the convicts who attempted to take their car nine miles north of here this morning, Drake said "They saw the convicts on the road, but stepped on the gas and got away" he said.
 Throughout the night the posse had surrounded the 10000 acre swamp in which two murderers, a kidnaper, two burglars, two maids and @ swain, all thirsty and fam ished, were hiding.
 The girls and their boy friend were prisoners of the felons who had already killed two men in their determination to make good their escape from the Arkansas state pri. son farm and were willing to Kill their hostages If that would help them.
 None had had food since Monday afternoon and little, # any drink. Though water abounds in the swamp, It Is not iit to drink.

 Cleveland Plain Dealer-The act of turning the over-age destroyers over to Britain is recognition of the truth that she is now fighting for the safety of American democracy as well as her own. Frankly, we would like it better if some degree of cooperation on the part of con- gress had been sought.

 Chicago Tribune" If the bases could be obtained no other way. they are to be taken on the terms offered. The compensation, it must be admitted, is a dangerous one. Although we do not see how the transfer of the destroyers could be regarded as anything but a belliger- ent act it is probably true that we have done so much already that is belligerent that very little differ ence ks made by this additional breacS. of neutrality.
 St. Louis Post-Dispatch = MT. Roosevelt today committed an act of war. He also became Americas first dictator. If congress and the people do not rise in solemn wrath to stop Roosevelt now-at this mo- ment-then the country deserves the stupendous tragedy that looms right around the corner.
 (The St. Louis Star Times ap- proved without reservation; the Globe-Democrat was glad for the acquisition of the bases but asked If the United States wasn't paying fin the wrong coin.~
 Indianapolis Star-Public senti- ment in this country is so over- whelmingly in favor of doing every thing "short of war" to aid the Brit ish that it will support and be in- clined to condone the deal the pres ident made. In this case, there may be a disposition to great anxiety as to what other presidential powers there may be for which the attor- ney general might be able to con- jure legal authority in the present emergency.

San Francisco Chronicle-Any criticism we have is not for the fact but because it should have been long ago. The delay in ac- ton has been perilous and we hope the destroyers get to the British Channel in time to be of full serv- ice.
 Los Angeles Times-There is a large and apparently increasing body of respectable opinion which holds that our interests and those of Britain in this war are so nearly identical that, the sensible thing for us to do is to give her every aid possible. For this view there is at least more to be said than for one of ostrich isolationism.
