Lupescu Neat
Social Issue

Havana, June ms Not
the war, not questions Of state or
high finance, but the social sta
tus Of titian-haired Nine. Magda
Lupescu was the burning question
banded about in Havana today.
The question took this form: Is
La Lupeseu going to be snubbed
by Cuban society?
Just what the answer will be Is
not yet clear But society folk
thought they saw a trend after
former King Carol Of Rumania
lunched Tuesday with British
Minister Sir George Ogilyie-For-
bes.
Nine Lupescu did not accom-
pany the ex-king 10 lunch.
What's more, gossip over Hav-
ana's teacups indicates a split
between the elder conservatives
and the more liberal members Of
Havana society over the future
status OF the new arrivals.
And here's another story that
Is going the rounds. The tao tiny
pekingese dogs that Nine Lupes-

Terms Ready
i'm Coal Strike

NDN AsSOCldI ed tTeSSl
The Defense Mediation Board
called together in Washington to-
day representative OF northern
and southern soft coal operators
and the United Mine Workers
(ClO) to hear board recommends
tions for settlement of their wage
contract controversy.
Ringing upon acceptance or re-
fusal of the terms was a threaten
ed new strike of 100000 coal
miners in the seyen-state Appala-
chan bituminous industry. The
walkout was postponed by Presi.
dent John L. Lewis OF the JAW
pending the boards report.
The recommendation were to be
made public after they had been
submitted to participants in the
three-way controversy. but board
officials said the closed parleys
might last until tomorrow.
A board panel headed by W. H.
Davis. vice-chairman. began draft
ing the recommendation 10 days
ago after efforts to mediate the
dispute failed. The board has no
power to enforce its recommends
tons, but following President
Roosevelt's proclamation of an I'M
limited national emergency, Davis
said:
The President said that the
recommendations OF the Mediation
Board should be followed. J. as.
sumo he meant what he said"
Crux OF the controversy is the
historic wage differential between
northern and southern miners. The
northern operators have met union
demands for a wage increase of 81
day to 81. The southerners have
raised their rate to $3.50. The
UNIV demands a uniform 81 scale.
and its contract with the northern
group provides that a strike may
be called II lesser wage is paid
elsewhere.

U. S. May Take
Over Shipping
NV Associated PrAssl

Washington, June -AP-- An
agreement for American mer'
chantmen to take over all Bri-
fish shipping routes from the Uni
ted States and Canada to Austria
liza and New Zealand was regarded
here today as the probable fore
runner of a complete British with.
drawal from maritime activities
outside the war zone.
Such a withdrawal, with United
States vessels taking over the
abandoned routes. long has been
considered likely, but the first
formal action did not come until
late Tuesday.
In brief formal announcement,
the Maritime Commission report
ed the agreement and said that a
dozen British vessels would be re-
leased for Great Britain's war ef-
fort.
The agreement was interpreted
in some official circles here as
further evidence Of Britain's acute
need for cargo tonnage in the bat
tie of her ocean life-lines. The ex-
pectation was that British ensign
ships in the South American trade
would soon follow.
The Maritime Commissions an
nouncement capped a day that
saw various aspects OF Britain S
lifeline battle figure prominently
in capital developments.
One provocative disclosure was
that "a number" OF the commits
sion's new cargo vessels had al
ready been converted into air.
craft carriers. John j. Dempsey,
a member Of the commission, gave
the information to a Senate com
mittee investigating the defense
program.
He also said that merchant ship
deliveries we're expected TO reach
the one-a-day rate by November.
He gave the number OF vessels
now under construction as 7i6.

many died today at his exile estate
OF Doom in the quiet backwash OF
a new German conquest almost %
years after he fled from the crum-
bling failure of his own European
war plan.
DNB. German official news agen-
cy. reported from Amsterdam that
the 80 year old, white bearded for
mer emperor died at 1880 a. m.
(4:30 a. m, EST in a sudden re-
lapse OF an illness which brought
members OF his family TO his bed
side last week,
Even in death, II was reported,
the odd man of Doom was not
to return to the land he ruled. d..
General Wilhelm Won Dommes,
chief administrator of the Hohen-
zolern properties, said the former
Kaiser would be buried at Doom.
Fright Step
The "old man of Doorn," who in
his time commanded the world S
mightiest military machine, re-
garded the ascendancy OF Adolf
Hitler to the leadership OF the
Reich in 1888 as "a step in the
right direction"
When Hitler picked up the saber
dropped in 1918 by the Kaiser and
turned it into terrifying blitzkrieg
in 1889, 10 of Wilhelm's family
were in Nazi uniform. One son,
Prince Oscar of Prussia, IL grand
sons and one grandnephew of the
Kaiser marched with the gray
green legions. Two OF the grand
sons since have fallen in battle.
Another grandson was informed by
the British.
Rumor on rumor had cropped up
since 1888 that the Kaiser was ac-
lively acknowledgements" of re-
juvenated Germany and that he
would one day triumphantly return
TO Berlin 10 claim his divine right"
as emperor. All such reports were
quickly spiked.
Ready TO ri.
Deeply religious, Wilhelm often
had told his family and encourage
that he was ready for death.
His death was a more important
event to the Hohenzollern family
