procuring the passport by a false statement and its use when so pro- cured. The crime of use is com- plete when the passport so obtained is used willfully and knowingly.
 Read in its context, the phrase 'wilfully and knowingly as the court charged the jury, can be taken only as meaning deliberately and with knowledge and not some- thing which is merely careless or negligent or inadvertent.
 "Once the basis wrong under this passport statute Is completed, that is the securing of a passport by a false statement, any intentional use of that passport in travel is pun- ishable."
 The court also sustained the con- viction in New York of Welwel Warszower On charges similar to those against Browder. WarsZower was charged with using 8 passport he obtained in 1886 under the name Robert William Wiener. He assert ed at that tie that he was born in Atlantic City, N. J., but govern ment evidence showed that he mi- grated from Russia in 1914 and has not taken out naturalization pa- perS. He presented his passport to immigration inspectors on his re- turn from abroad in July. 1886.
 Seventeen other states have used tax statutes similar to the Iowa

statute involved in the high courts mail order decision. The case to- day involved about $500,O00 in an- nual revenue for Iowa.
 Mail Order Tax
 Washington, Feb. 17.-(UP)-The supreme court today held that Iowa may collect its 2 per cent use tax on the mail order business of Sears, Roebuck & Co. and Montgomery Ward and Co.
 The decision may have widespread repercussions because IT other states have used tax statutes similar to the Iowa levy. About $500, 900 in annual revenue for Iowa was involved in the case.
 The tax requires the seller of every article of tangible personal property sent into the state for use in Iowa to collect the tax as agent of the state, regardless of whether the actual sale took place within or outside the state. Intended to complement the state sales tax, 1t exempts property on which the Iowa sales tax or the sales or use taxes of any other state have been col- lected.
 The court reversed a state su- preme court decision holding the tax inapplicable to the two mail order firms.
 In another decision the court af- firmed 8 lower court decision re- jecting the plea of the federal trade commission for authority to police unfair trade methods in intrastate commerce when such methods com pete with interstate business.

 LIVES ARE LOST

(Contlnued from Page D centered in the northern part of Spain.
 The railroad accident occurred between Bilbao and San Sebastian. The train, running on a narrow gauge electric railroad, was blown from a high trestle by the wind near Zymaya. Two passenger cars, the mail car and the locomotive fell into the Urola river. Eight other cars smashed onto the river bank.
 The Santander fire was started when the hurricane blew down high tension wires onto an oil tanker moored at the docks. It caught fire and the blaze spread quickly to dock warehouses and into the town.
 Communications still were dis disrupted and the extent of the Santander casualties was not known, but it was believed that the loss of life there had been small.
 Swept From Atlantic
 The hurricane came sweeping up from the Atlantic. It first caused heavy damage in the Madeira Is- lands and struck the Portugal coast in the Lisbon area. Approximately 10 persons were killed here and several hundred were said to have been injured. Buildings were demol- ished, trees uprooted and 20 small boats were sunk in the harbor. The British flying boat Clyde of the Imperial Airways, built for trans Atlantic passenger service, was torn loose from its moorings, and, after being battered about, sank.
 Fragmentary reports from the Portuguese and Spanish provinces in the hurricanes path indicated a heavy loss of life and high property damage, with hundreds homeless, but there could be no exact esti- mate until communications were fully restored.
 On either side of the main storm were very high winds which caused some damage in almost all parts of Spain and Portugal. A small boat was torn loose from its moorings at British Gibraltar and wrecked on the Spanish shore.

 Ohashi gave no hint as to what steps Japan proposed to take to as- sure its security from any dangers arising in the Philippines nor did he indicate what those dangers might be.
 Nad Help Fer Japan.
 However, Foreign Minister Yosuke Matsuoka indicated the extent to which Japan is expanding her war economy by revealing that Nad war technicians and Nazi war inven- tions are being brought in to bring Japan's military strength to an un- precedented level of e6aciency.
 Matsuoka called on the Japanese people to support this effort in every way.
 The Japanese press was in a fresh furry of excitement over newspaper reports that United States shippers of vessels in the Pacific trade were sailing with sealed orders to be opened in event war breaks out be- tween the United States and Japan. The Tokyo Press also devoted much attention to reports that 10000 Brit ish troops had been concentrated on the Thailand frontier of Malaya and that the British were discussing joint war plans with the Chinese.

without our men,"
 Make-Up of Bill


 As the British-Aid bill went to the senate floor, it authorized the president to lend or lease war ma terials for direct or indirect benefits to any nation whose defense he deemed vital to the United States subject to these limitations:
 l. No more than $l,300, 100000 worth of materials on hand or on order for the U. S. Army or Navy shall be given to foreign powers.
 2. Congress, by simple majority vote of both houses, may terminate its powers before June 30, 1943 when they automatically expire, and con- tracts made before that date must be completed by July 1, 1946.
 3. Nothing in the pill authorizes the use of naval vessels as conveys, or authorizes the sending of merch- ant ships into war combat zones.
 4. Presidential authority to make contracts or provide aid to foreign powers-above the $1 BOG, 900 900 lim- itation on equipment now on hand or on order-is subject to later con- greSSional action.
 Opponents planned to concentrate on amendments to prevent depletion of the navy, to impose a strict pro- hibition on conveys, ro exclude Rus sia from aid, and to write in pro- vision that nothing in the bill au- thorizes the sending of men from the army, navy or air force outside the western hemisphere or Amer ican possessions. The administration refused to accept these changes, confident that it could beat them.

AL CAPONE GOES

Miami, Feb. 17-(UP)-A Capone appeared before a special justice department attorney today for an examination to determine on what assets, if any, the federal govern- ment can levy 8 $201 ,347 judgment for evading income taxes.
 The hearing was held behind locked doors in the conference room of the Internal Revenue bureau in- telligence unit.
 The former Chicago gang leader slipped into the federal building an hour before the time scheduled, evading newspapermen. He was smiling as he left, but held large manila envelope over his face when photographers began taking pie lures. -.,s
 Harry G. Taylor, special assistant U. s. attorney, said that all infor- nation given by Capone to Frederic c. Rita, the special justice depart ment attorney, would be forwarded to Washington.

The concern granted a wage boost of four cents an hour last fall, at @ time when the union sought @ wage raise of 10 cents an hour. The example of the American Brass Go. was followed in Water- bury by the Scovill Mfg. Co. and the Chase Brass & Copper Go. which also granted riases of four cents an hour.

 British Shipping Suffers.
 The NaZi high command today re- ported fresh successes against Brit ish shipping, claiming that German submarines have sunk another 15,- 900 tons of merchant vessels while German aircraft attacked ships around the British Isles.
