ton CVaD Reformatory on a charge
of contempt of court and income tax

At a recent oral argument before
the higher tribunal, Assistant

sented by Myron G. Ehrlich.
The appellate court now has under

Deputy Killed in Fight
As Striking Farmers
Attack Milk Truck
Thousands of GuIIons
En- Route to New York
Dumped by Union
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RUTLAND, VT, July 3.-Deputy
Sheriff Ray Russell of Monkton was
killed today during a fight that de-
veloped when striking dairy farmers
attempted to dump a truckload Of
milk bound for the New York mar
ket.
Mr.. Russell was riding on a milk
truck bound from Waltham to Ver-
gennes when strikers attempted to
halt it and dump the milk. During
the fight the deputy fell from the
running board and was crushed be-
meath the wheels of the vehicle.
Addison County authorities at
once sped to the scene of the clash,
which occurred in a relatively thin
ly populated section.
Earlier, more than 5000 gallons Of
milk bound for the New York milk
sheds were dumped in three towns
by men who halted the trucks en-
route to plants.
In New York convoys of milk
tankers guarded by State troopers
were fired on by unidentified snipers
during the night en- route to the New
York City market.
Several arrests followed milk
dumping in New York. The Dairy
Farmers Union said a protest was
sent to Gov. Herbert H. Lehman
against State troopers conveying
milk tank trucks on the ground the
strike was being conducted with
out violence"
Soon after the death of Deputy
Russell, who was about IS and the
father of family, four residents
OF Waltham, Panton and Ferrisburg
were taken into custody and re-
moved to Middlebury. The sheriff s
Office said no formal charges were
made against the men, who were
named as Martin Pilger of Waltham,
William and George Sullivan of
Panton and Donald ODonnell of
Ferrisburg.
At Bridport. two trucks were
halted and 5000 gallons of milk
dumped on the road after the drivers
were halted by a barricade.
Eight cans of milk were dumped
from truck making a delivery at
Fair Haven bulk plant and IL
cans were spilled on the road at
Vergennes.
The Dairy Farmers Union called a
milk holiday in Addison and Rut-
land Counties to Withhold milk from
the New York shed pending agree
ment in price dispute
The union demanded a uniform
price Of So per hundredweight, COM
pared to June price of sl.88.
Amendments to the Federal State
marketing order boosted the pay
ments to levels which the union
contended would average little more
than 81, although a survey from
Cornell University last night fore
cast payments ranging from s215
in July to s256 in December.
The union said its members
produced half of the city's supply
and claimed a one-third reduction
IN shipments to the metropolitan
market. John L. Rice. New York
City health commissioner. estimated
about 100000 quarts had been
withheld on the second day of the
stoppage.

BERLIN. July 3.-German sea
and air attacks on ships bearing
Britain's vital overseas supplies took
a toll of 768,950 tons during the
month of June, the German high
command declared today, calling it
an expected great success"
Submarines alone destroyed Az
450 tons of merchant shipping, the
high command said.

man and bombed port facilities on
the English southeast and southwest

Workers 10 Return
Job Virtually Halted
By JurisdictionoI
Dispute at Navy Yard

Construction of $4,000 destroy
er dock at the Washington Navy
Yard was virtually halted by a
Jurisdictional strike today, but the
office of the commandant reported
assurance that all men who walked
off the job would be back at work
Monday.
Frank r. Howard, business agent
for the Carpenters District Coun-
Gil, called the strike ''misunder-
standing" Navy Spokesmen said
and promised officials that it would
be Strengthened out over the week
end
His action followed the interven-
tion of John P. Coyne. president
of the American Federation of La
bors building trades department.
Confers With Union Officers.
Mr.. Coyne's Office declared the
strike, begun yesterday, was in vio-
lation of an agreement by the ma
tional organization of the local car
penters' union involved because its
men were called off work without
any attempt to use established con-
ciliation machinery. He conferred
early today with national officers
of the two disputing unions his Office
said.
Meanwhile. progress on the project
was limited to some dredging and a
few other small operations, accord
ing to Burton E. Crumrine. super
intendent of the job for the Diamond
Construction Co. 1t is considered of
vital Importance, he said, with Al
priority granted on all materials.
About 70 men have been working
on the job. and 20 have been called
on strike, he said They are pile
driver workers. members of United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners.
Disputed With Laborers.
They disputed, he said, with men,
bers of the Heavy Construction La
borers' Union over who should
hitch piles to tractor which hauled
them about 400 feet to the con-
struction site. A laborer was given
the Job and the strike followed ac-
cording to Mr. Crumrine.
The action of Mr.. Coyne in at
tempting to halt the stoppage was
unofficial, his Office said, because
neither union had requested his aid.
officials of the carpenters union
could not be reached for comment.
Willy Arnheim financial secretary
of the laborers' local. said his group
would not request aid because we
are not on strike"

formant admits that 10 is probably
not that easy. He admits that the
| invasion of Russia was undertaken
essentially because the German mill
| tary fear the entry of America into
the war and cannot risk being de-
feated while an armed Russia re-
mains on their flank. He admits,
moreover, that German plans are
based on the certainty that only by
attempting courageously daring op-
erations can wars be won in this day
when technical advances give great
advantages to the offensive.
My informant admits that if
America threw its weight in now the
German plans would go all wrong.
He admits that Russia may lose its
western cities and yet prove as un-
conquerable as China has proved in
face of Japan. But still. he believes
the Germans are going to pull it off
Why? I asked him.
Because Uncle Sam is so busy
playing ostrich, he replied. Like
Vichy Vice Premier Admiral Jean
Darlan and his fellows. who are close
to the Germans, he simply does not
believe the Americans are capable
of courage or enterprise. No normal
European believes that the nation is
serious which wants to beat Hitler
by giving tools to some other nation
1t just doesn't sound like the kind
of stuff out of which you make an
unbeatable people, he said
Had Chance for 10 Days"
You have had a chance for 10
days, now, to throw your feet into
the Atlantic to clean out German
submarines" he went on. You had
chance to put your bombers over
Germany. You had a chance to
send fighters out to get rid of Ger
man airplane raiders. What have
you done? You have done nothing.
Bah!'
What this man says ought to be
discounted little, because he is
still trying to clear his head after
what happened to his own self
complacent country. What he says
about what the Germans plan,
however, can be taken as pretty
straight. He has gone over to them
lock, stock and barrel. He believed
in cooperation with them before
the war and they use him now with
his full consent, just as they used
him then without his knowing it.
German plans for continuing the
Russian offensive, with efforts to
exploit the internal disruption of
India with swift blitz, are plain.
Informed quarters knew of the
Russian show many months in ad-
vance, just as they know now of
plans against India and America.
That is why Gen. Sir Archibald P.
Wavell, who distinguished himself
in Libya as head of the British
Near East command, is going to
India.

DR.. Joss made a secondhand
brief-appearance on the witness
stand today He was asked to identi-
fy as his, hat found on the cellar
floor in his home the night Mrs
Joss was slain.
DR.. joss said it was the same
color, shape and size as my hat, -
and denied, in answer to cross
questioning by Attorney General
Frank I. Cowan, that he had told
police he had hung the hat in his
shed.
Il can't recall" said DR.. Joss. Il
ever told any one l hung my hat
there"
Defense Counsel Ernest l.. Good
speed then asked DR.. Joss one more
question.
Did you keep your hat in the
shed?'
Never" the doctor replied.
DR.. Josss parents, DR.. and Mrs.
Edward C. Joss of Washington, D.
c., followed their son to the stand.
DR.. Joss shot back an emphatic Il
did not" when his counsel yesterday
asked him: Did you kill your
wife?"
While declaring he loved Mrs.
Mayo, he said he was also in love
with his wife on March 27-the
night she was found fatally injured
in the cellar of their Office home.
But you were not so much in love
with Mrs. Joss that you could
have clandestine meetings with an
other woman and plan divorce?"
DR.. Joss was asked by Attorney
General Frank I. Cowan, directing
the prosecution.

The United States will supply
Great Britain with upward of 600 900
bales of cotton under terms of the
lease-lend program, authoritative
sources said today.
The cotton will be taken from
Government stocks acquired under
grower-loan operations.
The British plan to take at least
10000 bales month as long as ship
ping space is available, 1t was said.
The British have been buying very
little American cotton in recent
months. A shortage of ship
ping facilities, curtailment of civilian
consumption of cotton goods in Brit
ain and existence of relatively large
stocks were said to have been major
reasons for the small purchases.
1t was said the British now desire
to get additional supplies before
current stocks are cut too low.
