Peddler Being
Investigated

Police are more than curious as
a result OF finding reams OF litera-
ture in the room OF Claude Marsan
whom they charged Sunday after
noon with Illegal entry at l46
Hawkins st. and peddling without
a license.
Attention of police here was
first called TO Marsan when a wom-
an at lac Hawkins St. said he
entered her house there unan-
nounced. wearing colored glasses
and acting queFly After pausing
a moment he left and she called
police who located him a short
time later at Harriet and Hawkins
st. He said he was perfume
salesman and a member OF the
Street Educational Organization
which puts on theatrical acts on
the streets and gets its talent
from what he termed self employ
ed actors.
Marsan said his work was being
carried on by him to increase civil
liam morale. But he could give
police no satisfactory or reliable
references. Printed letterheads by
the score. letters and replies from
labor organizations. actors associa-
tions. and public officials at Wash
ington and elsewhere only added to
the confusion Manila envelopes
full OF letters. scrap books OF sun
dry clippings. among them being

added up to nothing tangible. said
Police Chief Dan L. l.. Patch who
finally ordered him charged with
illegal entry and held for inyestisa-
ton By the Federal Bureau Of In
vestigatiOn.

Lewis Reported to
be on Verge of
Action

Washington. Apr 5-UP-lf the
War Labor Board carries out its
reported plan to assume jurisdic-
ton in the bituminous coal dispute,
John l.. Lewis is expected today
by well-informed sources to call
his 100000 union miners out on
strike.
These sources believe that Lewis
would pounce upon such action as
an excuse for calling a strike in
his wage dispute with soft coal
operators. He is almost certain to
consider assumption OF jurisdiction
by the WLB on its own motion as
a violation OF the joint agreement
with operators TO continue work
this month during negotiations.
The United Mine Workers contract
expired last March 81.
Squsbble Shapes Up
Behind the scenes in this latest
twist to an already complicated
controversy is shaping up first
class intra- governmental squabble
between the War Labor Board and
the Labor Departments concilia-
ton service.
The United Press has learned
from unimpeachab sources that
the WLB has debated for a week
whether to remove mediation auth
ority from Cancellation Director
John r. Steelman by taking over
the case. Ordinarily cases are re-
ferred TO the WLB only by Secre-
tary OF Labor Frances Perkins.
WLB members have made no
secret of the fact that they believe
the coal dispute can be settled
only by board action-that collec-
tive bargaining and Cancellation
are fruitless efforts. On the other
hand. board members are worried
about the lack of board unity and
are conscious OF the national at
tention focused on the coal dis
pute. Members are said to believe
that WLB settlement OF the dis
pute would preserve the board and
restore public confidence in IT.

Washington, Apr. Sins Re
publican Senate leader Charles
McNary, Oregon, today joined the
farm bloc fight TO override Presi-
dent Roosevelt's veto OF the Bank
head farm bill.
With the Senate scheduled to
vote on the issue tomorrow, Nc
Nary predicted that the veto will
be oyerridden by the necessary
two-thirds vote.
Il will vote to override the veto
because this does nothing more
than declare the farmer Is entitled
to parity and in nearly every com
modify he is receiving parity now,
said McNary.
"The whole thing IS exaggerated
by people who don't understand
what is in the bill"
The measure. which prohibits
deduction OF farm benefit payments
in fixing ceiling prices or calculat-
ing parity, was vetoed by Mr..
Roosevelt as a measure to raise
cost of living and a threat of in
flation.
Democratic Senate leaders were
making a strong effort to line up
votes to sustain the President.
They had higher hopes of checking
the bill in the House than in the
Senate.
Sen. Mead (D) y. Y, Administra.
ton supporter, said my most opti-
mistic prophecy is that the vote
will be close"
The Senate collectively, as well
as the American people, have
keener realization of the dangers
that the farmers, workers and bust
ness men face from the inflationary
menace that seems to be gathering
around us" said Mead

 CAPITOL SHOW

In "Bambi,' feature attraction beginning Sunday at the Capitol Theatre, Walt Disney is offering his most important and his most adult feature-length picture. The original of "Bamni' is the best selling Felix Salten novel, which en- joyed the distinction of being 8 Book of the Month choice, with a record to date of more than 650,000 sales. The picture has been in pro- duction for five years, having in- deed been started before Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." It represents the highest peak of achievement by the man who has created whole new form of en- tertainment.
 Technically miraculous as it is, it is the emotional content of Bambi'' which gives it it's greatest import ance. The life cycle of every being with a heart to love with, soul to rejoice with. body to suffer with, is followed in the story. Birth, growth, romance, anguish, triumph all are found in "Bambi." Through his wild animal characters, Disney tells what may be called one of the great love stories of the world.
 Bambi is deer, the Prince of the Forest. His friends are Thum- per, the captivating little cottontail i; Flower, a skunk who can be describ- ed only as very sweet; Faline, the doe Bambi wins after a life -and- death fight; and many other inhab- itants of the great forest.
