Jugoslavia Prepares
 For Any German Drive
Leaders May Flee to Jugoslavia- Are Very Confident
BY LEON KAY United Press Staff C0rrespondent)

Belgrade, April {. - (UP) -- Ju- goslavia braced her defenses today for an attack which may come ct any time as reports circulated that German troops moved southward through Budapest all night long and wild rumors were circulated of sensational repercussions in Hun gary to the dramatic suicide of Pre- mier Count Paul Teleki.
 The most sensational ruinor heard in diplomatic circles was that "a large group of Hungarian political leaders," said to include the Hun garian regent, Admiral Nicholas Horthy, were preparing to leave the country today, presumably for Jugoslavia.
 This report was linked with gen. eral belief here that Teleki took his own life rather than submit to de- mands that Hungary collaborate with Germany in an attack upon Jugoslavia.
 One RumOr Denied
 Another rumor, which was flatly denied in advices from Budapest, was that the Hungarian war min ister, General Charles Bartha, had followed the example of Teleki and taken his own life. This was con- tradicted in advices from Budapest which said that Bartha was present today at ceremonies at which pr. Ladislaus Bardossy took the oath of office to succeed Teleski as premier.
 Whatever the developments of the immediate future the Jugoslav pop ulace faced them today with tre-

 As for the work stoppage of 400,s 900 soft coal miners in 12 states, he said he hopes they will be back at work on Monday.
 But, said the president, the Allig- Chalmers strike is really very bsA situation and something has got N be done about 1t.

 Washington, April 4. - (UP) --- The United States today rejected the German and Italian protests over the seizure of Axis ships in Amer ican ports and Secretary of State Cordell Hull sharply rebuked the German govern ment for its violation of the hospitality" shown its ves- sels and crews.
 Hull, in his note to Germany expressed surprise at the extreme assertions and demands" made by German Charge D'Affaires Hans Thomsen in asking that the crews be restored to their vessels at once.
 "In the first place." the note said, you do not state upon what pri1- ciple of international law or upon what provision of the treaty between our two countries you rely, and in the second place, you seem wholly to disregard the plain provisions of our statutes which make 1t a felony for the master or any other person in charge or cosfiiIlal1d of Q vessel, foreign or domestic, or for any iiaenibef ' Bl9 zlie crew or other person, within the territoriai waters

Alcorn May Not Give Back Generous Fees
Judiciary Committee Is Expected to Report Unfayor' .uussnuahy on Bill to Have Him Reimburse State for All Money Paid Him
BY RAYMOND J. FITZPATRICK Democrat Legislative Reporter)


 State Capitol, Hartford, April 4- An unfavorable report Is expected from the General Assembly's judi ciary committee on a bill requiring States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn tc reimburse the state for all money paid him for his services in the Waterbury conspiracy trial. The bill was heard by the committee We'd nesday afternoon.
 The measure directs that MT. AL corn, who served as special prosecu- tor for the state in the lengthy Waterbury investigation and trial return the $40,000 fee he received as well as other sums charged against the state as expenses.
 MT. Alcorn may have earned @ fee for his work, but he certainly doesn't deserve as much for one case as the president of the United States receives as Q years salary" the committee was told by F. Henry Sat- tier, of Meriden. He declared that the states attorney should not re. ceive special fees for the Waterbury case when he was still receiving his regular salary as prosecutor for Hartford county.
 Fav0ring Bill
 Also favoring the bill was Mrs Mineola Miller of Suffield, MT. AL corn,s native town. She said that the states attorney was not entitled to the extra fee since he received his regular salary while acting as special prosecutor at Waterbury.
 Committee members appeared tc feel that approval of the large fee for MT. Alcorn by Judge Ernest A. Inglis of the superior court took the matter out of their hands, since the judge would presumably be better acquainted with the facts.

 Paul Teleki
BY HAROLD PETERS United Press Staff Correspondent

Budapest, Hungary, April A. Regent Admiral Nicholas Horthy today administered the oath of of- flee to the new premier, Dr. Ladis- laus Bardossy, who succeeds Count Paul Teleki who shot himself to death yesterday.
 After the ceremony at the royal palace, Bardossy, who was expected to retain also his post as foreign minister, conferred with Horthy and then convened the cabinet for a short session.
 Countess Teleki, who was i'll when the late premier shot himself, last night left her hospital room in an ambulance and visited the room in which Teleki died at dawn yester- day.
 Police authorities warned all houSeholders today to obtain mate rials to black out the homes for air raid alarms, and Mayor Karl Szendy called on all functionarieS to carry on their duties with tireless energy and prudent circumSpection" in all circumstances
 Arrangements were made to give Teleki a state funeral Sunday.
 Unconfirmed reports continued to circulate that Teleki shot himself because of German demands which would be tantamount to handing the country over to the Naxis for an attack on JugoSlavia.
 Letter to Admiral
 Teleki was said to have written in a letter he left for Admiral Hor- thy;
 "You will understand that I am unable to carry on in face of the specter of war"
 The foreign ofiice said that the policies "of which Count Teleki was a loyal servant" would be continued, and the semi-official news agency said that both internal and external
