AMERICAS TRADE
PLANS CONSIDERED
Continued From Page One)

Europe. The FL American republics
thus would deal with the corpora
ton rather than become subject to
the NaZi barter system with it's &C.
companying political penetration.
Congressional action would be re-
quired to set up such a corporation
and preliminary comment by several
senators was favorable.
The corporation would have to
spend up to $1,000, ooo, 900 a year, it
was estimated, and might incur
losses of half that amount, which
would be underwritten by the gov
eminent.
A study has been under way for
some time as to "the most effective
manner of ~disposing profitably of
export SURPRISES in the western
hemisphere" in the words of a White
House announcement.
A meeting of Secretaries Hull,
Morgenthau and Hopkins and Her
bert Castor, under secretar of the
treasury, was. called to conclude the
study in a hurry and draft a report
with recommendations for President
Roosevelt. After the meeting it was
stated that no final decision had
been reached Is to what the recon-
mendations would be.

pany and did with malice and fell
oniously intend to blow up, MAIN
and destroy the operator and pass
engers of said truck, by placing
secretly three sticks of dynamite
with a cap unuder the seat of said
truck and did place secretly three
sticks of dynamite with a cap in
the plant road so as to have the
Swift company truck run over
same with intent that the truck,
operator and passengers be des-
troyed."
Officer Harry E. Fales said the
truck in which the dynamite had
been placed ran over the plant road
into Wilmington, picked up 80
workers, among whom were three
white men, and returned to the
plant, passing within an inch and a
half of the cap on the dynamite
planted in the road.
Explosion of the dynamite in the
road, he said, probably would have
discharged the dynamite in e
seat Of the truck, and the six
sticks, he said, would probably
have been sufficient to kill or SER
iously injure all of the 80 men
aboard the truck.
The dynamite in the road was
found by a ~passer-by, he said, and
the dynamite in the truck was dis
covered by the driver of the truck
who felt the bulge caused by it.
Fales said he had information
the dynamite was planted after an
argument between Knox and the
driver of the truck, but added that
Knox denies ever having had an
argument with the truck driver.
Knox, Fales said, had access to
a supply of dynamite and caps
and has had experience for a num-
Der of years in handling the ex-
plosive. 4
