The AFL's request for repudia-

a new issue into the controversy
as the % agreements already nego-

expiration Of the trade law, unless
congress took action to end them.
There are indications, however.
that the major issue in what looms

Fiscal Year 10 Beqin
With Only 28 Cases
On Criminal Docket
Only Man Now in Jail
To Go on Trial July IS
For PoIicemun's Deuth

With the c.ose Of the fiscal year
today the criminal docket at District
Court had only % criminal cases
pending and only one accused per-
son in jail This is believed to be
an all-time low figure.
Clarence Blocker, colored, 54 I
street NE, charged with first-degree
murder in the Staying of Park Po-
liceman Ivan w. Thompson, is the
man in Jail. He is scheduled to be
tried July Is and United States
Attorney Edward NJ Curran said
the Government is ready to go to
trial, but defense counsel needed
more time to prepare his case.
Mr.. Curran said 528 cases were
April 2. When he assumed his pres
ent duties, he said, 174 criminal
cases were pending.
The % cases awaiting trial today
contrasts with 81 cases at the cor
responding time last year. The %
pending cases include bond cases,
with the exception Of the Blocker
case, but do not include fugitive
cases and those in which defendants
have been adjudged of unsound
mind.
During the fiscal year, Mr. Curran
explained, 1870 indictments were
returned, as compared to 1928 re-
turned during the previous fiscal
year. The figures, made public yes
terday, showing the state of the
docket, were compiled by Assistant
United States Attorney John C.

Latin America. Though plantations
are being developed in Brazil, Fed
eral experts predict that 1t will take
five years before Latin America can
become an important source of
supply.
To date the Treasury has spent
about $14,00O,000 in the purchase of
strategic and critical materials. It's
purchases have included tungsten,
quartz crystals, optical glass, manila
fiber, chromium ore, tin, manganese
and quinine sulphate. With approx
mately SAT SOC, 900 already earmarked
for the purpose during the coming
fiscal year, the Treasury will step
up its purchases of materials for the
national defense stock piles.
Strategic materials of the highest
order of priority include chromium,
rubber, manganese, quinine, manila
fiber, mica, quartz crystals and
tungsten. For supplies of many of
these, and other strategic and crit
ical materials, the United States
largely depends on the Netherlands
East Indies, British Malaga and
other countries in Southeast Asia.
This explains, in part, the desire
of the Army and Navy Munitions
Board to acquire as quickly as pos
sible larger stock pile Of strategic
materials. Though the sea lanes to
the Far East are still open, there is
no assurance they will remain. If
the war extends to French Indo-
China the Netherlands Indies, Brit
ish Malaga, and other Asiatic coun-
tries, the United States might be
cut off from its supplies of rubber,
tin, and other essential materials.

DUKE FIVE WHIPS
CLEMSON, 1897
Blue Devils Retain Lead With
Victory In Over
Time Contest

CLEMSON, S. c., Feb. 12-R-
Duke defeated Clemson 80 to 81 in
an overtime Southern conference
basketball game tonight before $500
wildly cheering fans.
In the extra period, Allen, Duke
reserve center, put in two field
baskets in the first minute and then
the Blue Devils froze the ball while
holding Clemson to two points in th-
remaining four minutes. The second
half ended 1886.
Clemson, defending Southern con-
ference titleholder, got off to a 9
to 6 advantage in the first eight
mintes, but Duke, current confer
ence leader, pulled ahead at half
time 81 to II principally through
the brilliant shooting of Mock, a
forward.
The Tigers tied the score after
five minutes of the second half, but
fell behind again when their key
man, Center Banks McFadden, foul
ed out. But the Tigers rallied once
more a few minutes later when Ian.
caster sent through two field goals
and a foul, tieing the score with
seven minutes to go.
Smokes two field baskets sent the
Durham club in front again. 1t
looked like a Duke victory, but with
only 10 seconds remaining Barney
Coyle lifted a high one from mid.
court that slashed through to tie the
score.
