General Douglas MacArthur, chief of staff, made up his mind for a “sweeping movement” to clear out the few veterans who remained on or had returned to federal property. But investigation showed no necessity for such drastic procedure as the tear gas of Thursday. The task met no threat of major difficulty. Aroused, the president directed a federal grand jury investigation of the startling episodes that have taken place. Then, in a notice to the Dis- trict of Columbia commissioners who administer the affairs of this city, he charged them “to at once find the instigators of this attack on the po- lice and bring them to justice.” Brick Injured Policeman It was a brick that felled Private George Scott of the police which precipitated the first violence in the two months’ stay here of the bonus army., He was reported Friday to be on the mend, but still in danger.

He promised full federal cooperation, however, saying: “There is no group, no matter what its origins, that can be allowed either to violate the laws of this city or to intimidate the government.” Receives Many Messages White House officials announced earlier that scores of telegrams had been received by the president from communist organizations threatening the government because of its evic- tion of the bonus marchers, President Hoover told the commis- sioners the veterans “were undoubt- edly led to believe that the civil authorities could be intimidated with ; immunity because of attempts to con- | ciliate by lax enforcement of city ordinances and laws in many direc-; tions.” Pelham D.

These assertions were in reply to the ambassador’s protest against a radio speech by General von Schleicher, German minister of de- fense, who said that if the other na- tions in Europe do not disarm, Ger- many will reorganize her defenses to obtain the security and equality which she demands, Thursday in Paris Premier Her- riot called in Ambassador von Hoesch of Germany and filed a second pro- test against the general’s speech, which he described as tactless and inopportune, partcularly those parts of it which referred to the French er aad attitude as “hypocriti-j cal.” Reports that national socialist storm troops were concentrating in various provinces of Germany Fri-| day caused considerable alarm in spite of official assurance that most complete. measures have been taken to maintain peace and order during and after next Sunday’s elections. The reports said the Hitler storm troops apparently meant business. From various points in Pomerania, Mecklenburg and Silesia the news came that local Nazi organizations had received orders to stand by. There was no precise indication as to the purpose of the concentration except that they were instructed to provide themselves with three days’ rations and sleeping equipment. Motor trucks sufficient to convey large bodies of men also were re- ported held in readiness at strategic ‘points throughout the country and all leaves of absence of the storm troopers’ staff men were cancelled. Hitler and other Nazi leaders have given the von Papen government as- surances they are planning no vio- lent action, but anti-Nazi quarters said the possibility remains that some sectional hotspur might break away and start a “putsch” on his own account if the election failed to bring victory to Hitler.

WALKER’S REPLY T0 SEABURY’S CHARGES GIVEN TO GOVERNOR New York Mayor ‘Assures’ Roosevelt He Is Not Dis- loyal or Corrupt Albany, N. Y¥., July 29.—(#)}—Gov- ernor Roosevelt had before him Fri- day the reply of James J. Walker, mayor of New York, to Samuel Sea- bury’s complaint he was unfit to re- main in office. It was delivered Thursday and the governor began its perusal at once. In 27,000 words Walker gave his reasons why Seabury, legislative in- quisitor into the New York city ad- ministration, and others who sought the mayor's removal, were wrong in believing he had used his office for Personal gain. “Since the day of my birth,” Walk- er assured Governor Roosevelt, “I have lived my life in the open. Whatever short-comings I have are known to everyone—but disloyalty to my native city, official dishonesty or corruption, form no part of these short-comings.” Denying all accusations, he assail- ed the counsel to the Hofstadter leg- islative committee, informing Gover- nor Roosevelt in one instance that “Mr. Seabury deliberately falsifies the meaning of the record.” He also accused Seabury of with- holding from Roosevelt part of the significant evidence gathered by the committee. He said the investigation was ippae ves born and fostered in po- STUDY FORKS PLAN Grand Forks, N.

The first bright spot for the Amer- icans, interested in preventing, as far trade as a result of the British nego- tiations, came in the British proposal made by Stanley Baldwin Thursday. He warned the delegates of the dominions that the United Kingdom could not jeopardize its trade with jother nations for new agreements j Within the empire. The two other principal difficulties the empire representatives faced were the problem presented by the varie- gated and unstable relations of the currencies of the empire's various units and the divergence of stan- jdards of industrial products in eavh, developed through custom and re- {quirements over many years. Former Premier Baldwin pointed Washington, July 29.—(?)—Its re- organization completed with the se- lection of Charles A. Miller, Utica, New York, as the last director, the $3,800,000, > reconstruction finance corporation plunged ahead Friday with its relief program. Announcement of new loans, pend- ing completion of the directorate, was believed imminent. Illinois al- ready has reecived $3,000,000 from the $300,000,000 fund for relief advances to states, and numerous applications are pending. Miller, a Republican banker and lawyer who has been regional com- |mittee chairman for the reconstruc- tion orporation in the second fed- eral reserve district, including New York, will be elected president of the relief agency. An Ohio Democrat, Atlee Pomerene, is scheduled to be chairman. The announcement of Miller's ap- pointment was made after all direc- tors of the corporation but Jesse H. Jones, Houston, had conferred with Hoover. They said nothing about Pomerene's election as chairman ex- cept that it had not yet taken place. Filling the vacancy left by the re- tirement of Charles G. Dawes as cor- poration president, Miller is head of a Utica savings bank, is a graduate of Harvard and was elected president of the New York State Bankers as- sociation i 1909. His appointment still lecves Democrats with a nom- inal majority on the relief agency's directorate—four members to the Re- publicans’ three. R. F. C.

Beside the actress when police found her in her apartment writhing in agony was a note addressed to “Jack.” It read: “I love you. Only you. I couldn't help it. I couldn’t go on without you.” Physicians said her condition was critical. The twice-married actress took @ caustic poison after spending the evening with Hayes. She had been so despondent, Hayes said, that after leaving her at 11:30 he telephoned her when he reached home. “Are you all. right?” Hayes said he asked. “Sure I’m all right,” he quoted Miss Basquette as reply- ing. “I have just taken poison.” He said he rushed to the apartment and was so busy giv- Friday said the government launcl ed a new campaign to rid the state. tered tionary fo! bile.

Washington, July 29.—()—Presi- | out bluntly that Great Britain still ‘has to depend on non-empire coun- |tries for the sale of more than half |her own products and this was look- jed upon as a warning that the moth- es country could not be expected to ;give up these foreign markets except jin direct ratio to the dominions’ | wi. gness to replace them. Canadian industries, however, have cautioned Premier Bennett not to be ‘too lenient” in subjecting domestic industry to British competition, so the problem became a choice between protection for the home manufac- turers in Canada and the desirabil- ity of preference duties on British goods. Considering the problem of a stabilized intra-empire currency, the conference committee on monetary and financial questions heard that the pound sterling dropped two cents ‘Thursday as a result of heavy pur- jchases of the American dollar to pay for stocks and bonds in the New York market. The committee voted to continue its session. INCREASED EXPORT OF CANADIAN CATTLE SEEN Toronto, July 29.—(#)—The Toron- to Globe said Friday in a dispatch from its special correspondent at Ot- tawa that 100,000 head of Canadian cattle may find a market in the United Kingdom next year as a re- sult of negotiations of the Ottawa conference. “The Dominion government has been pressing for removal of the dis- criminations against Canadian cattle,” it said. “And the Globe learns, on the highest authority, there is a rea- i sonable prospect that the British gov- {ernment will grant the Canadian de- i mands.” Communists Deny Any Plot Against Banks New York, July 29.—(4)—Commu- nist leaders entered a general denial \Priday of charges that members of |their party had engaged in any so- called “whispering campaign” to wreck confidence in the country's banking institutions. Statements were issued by I. Amter, Communist candidate for governor of New York, and by the United Front Communist election campaign com- mittee, of which N. Stevens is head, in addition to a denial of the charges by C. A. Hathaway, chairman of the national Communist campaign com- mittee. “The whole thing is obviously a Red scare in order to justify police and gangster attacks on the Aug. 1 dem- onstrations of the Communist party,” said Amter. “This is the usual prac- tice of the capitalist authorities.” The statement from the United Front committee described the charges as “ridiculous.” Hathi said there is no “George Rowland” in the Communist party.

Bangs, chairman of the commission, said Friday at Grand Forks that his idea is to insert in the contract a clause guaranteeing work to North Dakotans and barring float- ing labor from the larger cities. Smith said the superintendent for Lundoff-Bicknell on the capitol build- ing will be J. M. Davis of Chicag who has handled some of the large: work ever undertaken by the com- \pany, including the Palmolive build- ing in Chicago. Although no subcontracts have been entered into, it appears that the Wachter Transfer company will be given the subcontract for excavating and will be required to have three steam shovels on the work as soon as the subcontract is signed. Approxi- mately five trucks will be used to dis- tribute the dirt around the building in ccnnection with grading operations as required by the plans. The initial work, according to Smith, will provide jobs for about 25 men. It is expected the excavating will be finished in about three and a half weeks. Sixty thousand yards of dirt will be moved in that period. Smith said his company will con- tinue the work at top speed until winter closes in and will begin again in the spring as early as possible. Their schedule is for a shut-down from December to April, although work will depend on weather condi- tions. The contract requires the work to be completed in 18 months and the company expects to beat that time handily, he said. EXPECT BIG CROWD AT FAIR IN MANDAN H. C. DePuy of Grafton Sched- uled to Speak at Missouri Slope Exposition H. C. DePuy of Grafton, Demo- cratic candidate for governor, will address a crowd which will gather for the final day's festivities at the Mis- souri Slope state fair at Mandan Sat- urday. Friday was “Mandan day” at the fair and many of the citizens of that city mingled with the throngs of vis- itors at both afternoon and evening entertainments. Saturday has been set aside as Missouri Slope day and fair officials expect the largest crowd since the ex- hibition opened Tuesday. Attendance at the fair has been gratifying, ac- cording to the secretary, who said that gate receipts were becoming in- creasingly large each day. Attend- ance records were larger Thursday aan at any other day during the week, All exhibits have been judged and the awarding of prizes was to be com- pleted Saturday. A feature of Saturday afternoon's Definite rejection of proposals by William Langer, Republican guberna- torial nominee, to initiate 13 meas- ures to be voted on at the November election, was announced late Thurs- day by the Nonpartisan executive committee. The matter was referred to the executive committee by a group of Nonpartisans which Langer called in- to session here Wednesday night. The measures included heavier taxes on individual and corporate incomes in the higher bracekts, revision of the board of administration law, taxes on all stores with the heaviest taxes on chain institutions, and a variety of other legislation. Robert Larson, Minot, a member of the executive committee, also an- nounced that John Nystul, Fargo, jcommittee chairman, had agreed to manage the Republican campaign this fall. It was he who successfully con- ducted the June primary campaign in which the Nonpartisans swept the state for the first time in many years. Rejected Idea Only John Nystul, chairman of the ex- ecutive committee, explained the ac- tion of the committee Friday in the following statement: “The committee gave careful con- sideration to the proposals to initiate measures to go on the ballot in No- vember and rejected the idea. Its ac- tion was based on the fact that the legislature wil: meet in January and will have ample time to study the measures. The electorate already faces the duty of passing on six measures. “It was our feeling that the initia- tive privilege is one which the public desires to use only to cure grave abuses and in cases of serious emer- gency. As members of the party which placed the initiative clause in the state constitution, we desire to use it only in the manner intended by its sponsors; that is carefully and sparingly. “The committee will sponsor no initiative measures to be voted on at the next election and, as the consti- tuted authority of the Nonpartisan League, will not permit anyone to designate any initiated petition, now ‘on the ballot or which may be offered in time for the next election, as a Nonpartisan measure. Feel Harmony Prevails “In taking this stand we feel that we are acting in accordance with the wishes of the rank and file of the Nonpartisan League in the June pri- mary. “We have every confidence that the abuses now apparent in the state gov- ernment will be considered and cured by legislative action next winter. “When a law is initiated it requires a two-thirds vote of the legislature to amend it. Thus, if initiated laws be- come obsolete, it would be difficult to amend them, whereas the law should at all times be adjusted to the welfare and desires of the people. This re- quires fluidity rather than rigidity. “Our position is based on principle and should not be interpreted as a condemnation of any law which it scheme were found Wednesday.
