| Stark Reaches
Britain to Begin
las Navy Chief

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, April 3O-Admiral
Harold r. Stark of the United States
Navy arrived in London by air this
evening to assume his duties as
commander in chief of American
naval operations in European
waters.
Admiral Stark was accompanied
by United States Ambassador John
G.. Winant.
He was appointed to the new
position March 9 and is the highest
ranking United States naval off,
Ger to assume a post in Britain
since 1917.
The arrival of Admiral Stark and
President Roosevelt's disclosure in
his broadcast Tuesday night that
United States naval units are op-
Grating in the. Atlantic and Arctic
Oceans and the Mediterranean Sea
gave added emphasis to the stead
lily increasing part that American
forces are taking in the European
theater.
1t was believed Admiral Stark,
former United States chief of naval
operations, would set up here q
complete naval headquarters, SINH
lar to World War arrangements, for
co-ordinating American naval move
ments with those of the British in
European waters.
The Americans arrived in a twin
motored United States plane.

Gun Crew Of U. S. Freighter
Scores Direct Hit on U-Bout

neuvered his ship so as to put the
submarine on his starboard quarter
In the maneuver, however, the
lookout lost sight of the periscope
The freighter's crew kept a sharp
lookout for a few minutes and then
sighted the coming tower of sub
marine.
At a distance of approximately
one mile, the gun crew scored hit
on the submarine with one shell.
Ship personnel felt the tremors of
a heavy explosion and sighted a
great upheaval of water followed
by a slick of heavy, black oil on the
surface
This was the second encounter
which the small vessel had with a
submarine on its voyage. Two days
previously the freighter had arrived,
in the dead of night, at the scene of
sea tragedy.
LoOkOuts had sighted a burning
tanker, which had been torpedoed,
and nearby had seen a single blink
ing light about feet above the
surface. The freighter's skipper
ordered his gun crew to fire at the
light concluding it was on a
submarine and the light was
promptly snuffed out. 1t was i'm
possible TO determine whether the
shots had struck home.

Of Shielding Lights to

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 30.-Police
Commissioner Lewis ]. Valentine
said today he hoped 1t would
not be necessary to discontinue
night baseball" here as a result
of the Army's dimout regulations
in this area.
Answering questions submitted by
the Associated Press, the commits
sioner said:
I'VE may find some scientific
method of preventing the glare from
these powerful lights above the hor-
izontal which we hope will permit
the continuance of night baseball
st hope it will not be necessary to
discontinue night baseball and I
did not at any time yesterday say
that it would be necessary"
In statement yesterday wide
ly interpreted as sounding war
time knell both for night base
ball and night prizefights, Mr..
Valentine said of the dimout that
naturally it will affect baseball
and other sports at night, since
the lights can be seen above the
horizontal"
Referring to night boxing, he said:
Boxing contests are in a different
category. AS you know, there isn't
nearly the lighting requirements for
fights that we have for baseball
games"

13-to-12 Vote
Backs President
On Legislation
Action Is CIimux
To Two Months of
Stormy Hearings
BY the Associated Press.

BY a single vote margin, the
House Naval Affairs Committee
tabled today and probably killed
for the time being a measure to
limit war profits, lift the statu-
tory work-week limit from 40 to
48 hours and freeze the status
quo of closed and open shops for
the duration of the war.
The vote was 13 to IL, and came
shortly after Chairman Vinson told
the members that 'the American
people are going to have something
to say about the racketeering in
war plants and in labor unions in
every congressional district in the
Nation in the November elections"
The action, climax of two months
OF stormy hearings on the profits
labor issue, backed up President
Roosevelt's message to Congress
earlier this week that no labor leg
lslation was necessary at this time.
PROFITS Limit Studied.
simultaneously, it left the ques-
ton of limiting war profits up to
the Ways and Means Committee,
now studying the Chief Executives
suggestion for $4,000 ceiling on
individual incomes after payment
OF taxes, along with other proposals
for sharp increases in the excess
profits levy
The motion to table the measure
was made by Representative Brad
ley, Democrat, of Pennsylvania.
Representative Bradley then moved
to reconsider the tabling motion
and his second motion was tabled,
10 to 8, which Chairman Vinson
explained meant that the COM
mittee could consider the legisla-
ton again only under unanimous
consent which to all purposes killed
the measure.
The House Judiciary Committee
later deferred final action on legis-
lation to require the registration OF
labor organizations and. business
and trade associations, members
saying it would be taken up next
| week.
Approved by subcommittee, the
legislation would require the filing
OF periodic financial statements, in
cluding the names, addresses and
compensation of principal officers,
by labor organizations, industrial
associations, business leagues. cham
bers of commerce and boards of
trade.

lation on profits, the 40-hour week

Gayda Hints Axis Has Held
Military and Political ParIeyy

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN From German Broad
casts, April 30.-A Rome dispatch
quoted Virginio Gayda as writing
today that "a new cycle of contacts
between the Axis powers and the
states of the three-power pact has
been completed in regard to big poll
tical and military events"
(Axis powers apparently means
Germany, Italy and their Euro
pean satellites; Japan, Germany
and Italy are the states of the
three-power pact. Gayda's hint
may mean that Hitler. MuSsolini
and the Japanese Ambassador to
Berlin already may have met.
Radio reports heard in London
today said they were meeting
shortly)
The dispatch quoted Gayda as
saying, in II Giornale D1talia, that
the tendency of these contacts was
ito form uniform gigantic fronts
for the war and to put into line all
operations.
'It may be added" Gayda said,
that this tendency once again has
been confirmed in recent days by
all possible military and political
means and has been laid down in =
detail and developed"

U. S. Patrol Is Urged to Form
Coastal Shipping Air Umbrella

to April Is the Government had
announced the sinking of 131 ships
along the Atlantic Coast line. He
said 857 crew members of these
ships had been reported killed,
1904 were missing and 1898 had
been rescued
He contended these losses in YES
sells, averaging more than one day,
virtually had offset output under
the cargo ship construction pro-
gram.
Senator Brooks said that air pro-
lection of coastal shipping might
solve the problem Of a threatened
gasoline shortage on the Eastern
seaboard.
Senator Shipstead, Republican, of
Minnesota said the same result
might be accomplished by the con-
struction of steel or wooden barges
to transport oil on inland water
ways.

Bunker Says Jones
Eyaded Facts in Reply
10 Senate Critics
Repeots Charges on Pact
For Construction Of
Magnesium Plont
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Bunker, Democrat, of
Nevada charged in a Senate ad-
dress today that Jesse Jones, De-
fense Plant Corp. chairman, re-
sorted to evasion, subterfuge
and distortion of facts" in a
statement on April % in which
Mr.. Jones replied to Senate critics
of a Government contract for
construction of a $4,000, 900
magnesium plant at Las Vegas,
New.
Senator Bunker asserted in SEN
ate address April 9 that the Defense
Plant Corp. had entered into an
agreement with Basic Magnesium,
Inc, of Cleveland for construction
and operation of the plant, which
would permit the Cleveland COM
pany to make profit of $2,140 900,
or 1920 per cent, within one year
on an investment of less than s5o,-
900.
Senator Bunker repeated today
his previous charge that the agree
ment "is so sinister as to indicate
that some officials in our Govern
ment are guilty of malfeasance in
the performance of their duties"
Jones Denied Charges.
Mr.. Jones denied the charge and
charges of the Senate Defense In
vestigating Committee in a state
ment filed April % with the COM
mittee.
Senator Bunker, referring to the
reply, accused Mr.. Jones of attack
ing investigators of the Senate COM
mittee that conducted hearings at
Las Vegas in March, and added.
Mr.. Jones attempt to saddle the
for Basic Magnesium
profiteering off on the War Depart
ment and the now defunct Office of
Production Management will meet
with as little success as did his
effort to blame the President of the
United States and the British and
Dutch governments, for Mr.. Jones
own failure to provide the Nation
with rubber"
Mr.. Jones asserted in his state
ment that the contract entered into
with the Cleveland company had
the approval of the War Depart
ment and o. P. M
Legislators Insulted.'
Referring to the testimony at Las
Vegas before the committee, Sena-
tor Bunker said:

The Navy this afternoon revealed
how the crew of a small United
States freighter stuck to its guns
against an Axis submarine in the
Atlantic a few days ago and scored
a direct hit with its deck gun on
the raider.
The hit caused a heavy explosion
and the crew of the merchant vessel
noted a slick of heavy oil on the
surface later.
The encounter occurred in mid
afternoon while the freighter was
moving slowly down the Atlantic
Coast. The master of the merchant
man sighted a periscope at a dis
tance of approximately miles.
The gun crew leaped to stations
and the merchantmans skipper ma
