 Negotiations broke down last night after a siX-hour meeting be- tween the Carrier and Cancellation Committee. The four-union labor committee is composed of represent atives of the CIO American News paper Guild, the AFL Typographical Union, Stereotypers Union, and Photo-Engravers. William Gibbons, of the Typographical Union, chair man of the committee, said he be- neved his group could be ''of no further service" since the Publishers claimed legal questions were in- volved. The Carriers representative, Charles Bond, expressed doubt any legal question was involved" and the conciliation committee said, we don't know"

 She revealed that she kept right on spying in the last war, SC clevely that she hid American anc British aviators in her apartment under the direct protection of tho Germans.
 Tn the first World War Marthe Richard served for two years in Spain as a spy. She was later dec- orated by the French Government and books and films were written about her.
 Tn 1922 the Germans arrested me and then freed me, hoping I would work for them," she said, T told them that first I didn't like them: secondly, did not want to betray either England or Amer ica. My husband, the late Thomas Crompton, was an Englishman, and I received an American pension because he was financial director in France for the Rockefeller Founda- ton.
 '" I half agreed to do propaganda work for them abroad, and man. aged to stall them until liberation. Just when they arranged a price or chose a country for me, would change my mind and want more money or 8 different country. Meanwhile I was hiding American and British f1iers in my apartment at St. Cloud. The Germans fre- quently came to see me there. One of them said once that my apart ment smelled heavily of English tobacco. I told him yes, I always used English tobacco"
