Bailey (Dem.-N.C.) that it would in- jure farm credit. The bill, designed to replace the law declared unconstitutional by the supreme court, would permit farmers to retain their homes under court jurisdiction for three years by pay- ing a “fair” rental, regardless of the size of the debt. Sen, Borah (Rep.-Ida.), leading the fight for the measure, agreed it would alter contracts but said that was in- evitable in any bankruptcy legisla- tion and the supreme court had so |. He said that feature of the legislation did not make it un- constitutional. Borah contended also that the three-year delay might work to the advantage of the creditor, rather than urging passage of the bill of which he is co-author. “That's just the beginning,” he said. “Unless congress acts before adjourn- ment, there will be disturbances that this country has never before ex- perienced.” (MILL CITY FIRM IS SCENE OF FIGHTING INNEW LABOR WAR Leader in Last Year’s Truck Strike Arrested as He Encourages Rioters ‘Minneapolis, Aug. 19—(#)—Sporadic skirmishes between police and a crowd of almost 1,000 pickets during which one worker was stoned, two shots were fired without effect and Vincent Dunne, one of the leaders of last year’s truck strike, was jailed, mark- ed resumption of operation of the Strutwear Knitting company Monday.

(CST) from Vancouver, B. C. The plane landed at Boeing Field, the municipal airport, in the south- ern part of the city. Without stop- ping his motor after the plane had R.} come to a halt, Pilot Crosson taxied it into a United Air Lines hangar at the side of the field. The hangar was completely sur- rounded by state patrolmen, city po- lice and marine corps reservists. Young Awaits Plane Within the hangar, Col. Clarence Young, Pacific coast manager of Pan-American Airways, and Amon Carter, of Fort Worth, Tex., personal representative and close friend of the Rogers family, were among the group awaiting the plane’s arrival. Earlier, three morticians had ar- rived at the airport and had gone in- to the hangar. A group of civic representatives, among them W. W.

Colonel Young came out of the hangar and said plans for the take- off for the south were set for 1:30 p. m., after the bodies had been transferred to the other plane. “We will go through Los Angeles today,” he said, “but obviously we can not announce the airport at which we will land.

The British place the responsibility of the parley’s failure at the door of Italy, explaining that 11 Duce not only rejected the Anglo-French plan but also failed to offer a substitute. Duce Spurns The spurned proposals would have provided for Franco-British renun- ciation of further economic privileges in Ethiopia in favor of Italy; aided Italy by securing loans for develop- ing its colonial possessions and yield- ed to Italy political privileges in the appointment of technical advisers and department heads of customs. Tl Duce’s answer was said to have been accompanied by what amounted to a demand for complete political control of the Ethiopian empire. Anthony Eden, British minister for League of Nations affairs prepared to return to London. A high French official said private- ly that Europe “faces a crisis like that of 1914” and “France must re- sign herself to losing Italy’s friend- ship.” Italian Blames Britain A member of the Italian delegation blamed the breakdown of the confer- ence on “the lack of English good will and their unbending position.” A British spokesman commented: “Nothing can be done at Geneva to prevent war.” The same source said that Premier Laval had assured Eden that France was with England in this critical moment. Said an Italian spokesman: “The English are not willing to see Italy have Ethiopia without sharing in it themselves, although I suppose you should not deny their spokesman’s claims that they are upholding League of Nations idealism.” ‘The Italian denied a report that the conference had heard only Franco-British proposals and Musso- lini’s refusal to accept them “the Italians also made suggestions which were turned down in turn by the French and British,” he said. Test For League A French government authority | said Italy’s apparent determination to conquer Ethiopia was a “test for the League.” “The League must triumph,” he declared, “or there will be chaos. Austria proposed to do to Serbit good deal less than Mussolini intends doing to Ethiopia. “The League may as well face the situation. It did nothing when Japan and Germany ‘defied the League,’ but now it must stand or fall on the issue.” An Italian delegate refused to con- firm or deny that Mussolini stood flatly for annexation or complete po- litical control of Ethiopia as the only acceptable grounds, stating however: “But all economic advantages would be absolutely worthless without proper police guarantees.” Insurance Continues On Crops, Hopton Says Fargo, Aug. 19.—()—State hail in- surance protection continues on wheat fields providing evidence is clear the farmer intended to harvest them, Harold Hopton, state insurance com- missioner, explained here Sunday.
