In one case, the justices split 6 to 2 in holding ‘a section of Iowa's chain store tax law unconstitutional. The law. was designed to impose a grad- uated levy on gross receipts. The dis- senters were Justices Brandeis and Cardozo. , Paper Reorganization Denied Among other decisions handed down, the court barred reorganization of the Tennessee Publishing company, publishers of the morning and after- noon Nashville Tennessean, under Section 77-B of the federal bank- Tuptcy act, It also upheld a lower court ruling that three Neiderckers brothers—B.

The Neicerckers came to the United States when etheir bank closed its doors. They were taken into cus- tody at New York on a warrant re- quested by the acting consul general of France. Their discharge was directed by the circuit court after the federal dis- trict court had dismissed writs of a habeas corpus petition. Attorneys for the Neiderckers told the supreme court that the treaty provided that “neither of the con- tracting paries shall be bound to de-, liver up its own citizens, or subjacts, under the stitpulations of this con- vention.” Question Extradition Powet It was contended by the opposition -that the question of extraditton was left within the discretion of the pres- ident. : The justices unanimously affirmed in an opinion read by Chiet Justice Hughes a ruling of the second circuit court of appeals that native-born American citizens could not be extra- ited to France,under.a 1909 treaty.

COUGHLIN'S SUPERIOR ASKS RETURN T0 AIR Denies Radio Priest ‘Gagged’ by Bishop or Papal Secre- tary of State » Washington, Nov. 9.—(7)—Moves for stronger military defenses and for new legislation intended to keep the United States out .of toreign wars were afoot in the capital Monday as another Armistice day approached, The army's chief of staff, Gen. Malin Craig, sought establishment of @. large new reserve of fighting men, ready to augment a modernized reg- ular army in time of danger. A naval chieftain, Rear Admiral Adolphus Andrews, chief of the bu- reau of navigation, warned that the fleet is under-manned, more in of- ficers than in men. He asked full war complements for each of the navy’s vessels. Satisfied With Progress Satisfied with the army’s progress toward modernization, General Craig in his annual report disclosed plans for creating s trained civilian army through a five-year enlistment sys- tem in the regular army. This would embrace three years of active service and two years of reserve duty. Pointing to thé aging of World war veterans since the magic word “Armistice” rang through the coun- try just 18 years ago next Wednesday, he said: “In former years the veterans of the late war were of such age as to be capable of rendering active service. Only to a limited extent is this true today. So it seems imperative that remedy Would Train 15000 The army's new plan woula provide ultimately.a trained civilian reservoir of 150,000. Admiral Andrews, in his report, sald the present strength of 96.500 mcn gives only 85 per cent of full crews in the fleet. He said “the tutal per- sonnel thereby assigned to the fleet is not adequate in number of exper- jericed men for the needs of mobiliza- tion.” Senator Nye (Rep., N. D.) indicated in St. Louis Sunday he would ask congress to enact a “cash-and-carry” policy, under which warring, nations would: have to furnish their own transportation for non-war materials bought in this country. This would be in addition to an embargo on mu- nitions and credit. This legislation, he said, must at the outset contemplate mandatory en- forcement by the president of an em- bargo on munitions and credits to all belligerents. (The present neutrality law forbids Americans to sell arms or lend money to the governments of belligerent countries.) PROBE INTO MOTT.

Henri Dekeriliis, Rightist deputy, called the suggestion “unpardonable” and asserted the French premier “should be tried -by a high court.” Blum advanced his idea at/a ses- sion of the Socialist national council, saying: “If concerted action with England is possible, I am ready to undertake it.” He did not indicate whether British officials had been approached di- rectly. Accepts Resolution Blum accepted a Socialist party res- olution which called on the govern- ment to use all its efforts, in cooper= ation with Great Britain, to apply & policy previously outlined by the Communist International Federation of Unions and the Socialist Workers Internationale. ‘The policy, drawn up Oct. 26, estab- lished a coordinated effort by the la- bor organizations to supply arms and munitions to Spanish Socialists, Its principal point was a request to affiliated labor unions to attempt to prevent supplies from reaching Span- ish insurgents. This would be ac- complished through transportation. and dock workers’ strikes tieing up shipping facilities.

Instead, it will be simple and im- pressive, with just a little attempt to make it something difterent from the usual order bf things one finds at an Armistice Day observance, said Ferris Cordner, general chairman. The usual parade, with veterans, veterans’ auxiliaries, soldiers, groups ot Boy and Girl Scouts, and lodges and service clubs will an important part of the program; and beyond that, a luncheon at which members of the American Legion Auxillary will enter- tain Legionnaires and a program in the city auditorium in the morning form the rest of the day's plans. Members of the American Legion committee in charge of arrangements for the day's program are Chairman Cordner, Forrest Skinner, Frayne Baker, H. A. Jones, Herman Brocopp, Col. Thomas Smith, H. A. Sorenson and 8. T. Lillehaugen, Will Sound Roll Call From Capitol Steps Governor Walter Welford, in a proclamation issued Monday urg- ing North Dakote citizens to ob- serve Armistice Day, said a roll call would be sounded from the steps of the state capitol buriding here at 11 o'clock Wednesday fol- lowed by sw minutes silence and blowing taps. “During these stressing times when there are many things to produce reprisals and discontent,” the governor ged, “let us rededi- cate ourselves'to those who were sacrificed as a result of thet last conflict. “Let us show our appreciation for their sasciticcs by contributing to the best ci our ability to ligh- tening burdens of thosc who ae left to carry om: handics: and suffering, and strive provide education and traming that we may continue to live in peace.” (By the Associated Press) Insurgent shells rained into Mi drid’s “Times Square” Monda wounding 30 persons, as Socialist guards and Fascist snipers fought gun battles in the city’s streets. Furious fighting raged all along the western and southern sides of the capital. Fascist artillery hurtled shells into the center of the theatrical district, bombarded the presidential palace and wrecked the Madrid electric company’s offices on the Grana Via. Overhead, Fascist planes again bombed and machine gunned the city in a fourteen-plane attack. Anti-aircraft guns biazved away at the daring raiders, but the Fascist Planes droned away unhurt, dropping six bombs on the government forti- fications at the Toledo bridge before Jecas section Sunday when six work- ers’ apartment buildings collapsed under an insurgent bombardment. Many others were injured by falling debris, ie Throughout the night, shells drop- ped into the center of the city. One burst with a giant roar only 100 yards. from the Associated Press bureau. Fez-topped Moors and Fascist for- eign legionnaires, advancing in the face of withering gunfire, waded into the shallow waters of the Manzanares river—on the south rim of the city— near the Toledo bridge. Hope for Quick Capture The extent of their penetration was not immeflately known. Thousands of Fascist and Carlist . ‘poured into the front lines of the insurgent army, indicating a Gesperate attempt would be made to, capture the city Monday. The insurgent high command said the early bombardment of the city was the prelude to one of the biggest. battles of the civil war. Four Fascist columns were aimed at the city, each assigned to capture one of the four bridges giving access to the capital—the Casa de Campo, Segovia, Toledo and Princesa bridges. The heavy shelling was reported to have wiped out a Socialist battalion of women fighters and fired scores of houses on the southern end of the city. Fall to Halt Attack A Socialist army, estimated at 25,- 000 strong, failed in an attempt to block a Fascist assault on the north- west side of the capital. The raw “workers’ army” broke and ran, in a wild confused flight, under the lash of deadly Fascist shelling. Meanwhile, informed sources in London said Great Britain would nold firm to her Spanish non-intervention policy despite reports that the French , Leon Blum, was ready to Tush 11th hour assistance to Madrid. British officials discounted as: “in- ternal politics” the statement of Premier Blum that “if concerted ac- tion with England 1s possible, I am ready to undertake it.” Parade to Move at 10:15 The parade will move promptly at 10:15 a. m. with the line of march scheduled to take the four marching sections through downtown Bismarck and to the city auditorium by a cir- cuitous route. The four sections will be centered about the intersection of ‘Thayer avenue and Broadway at the start. 5 At the auditoriu program, which Lillehaugen has arranged, will be pre- sented. Rey. E. L, Jackson, chaplain of the Lioyd Spetz post of the American Le- gion, will give the invocation, and William A. Sessions, Jr., chaplain at Fort Lincoln, will give the principal address. Other numbers will be a one-act play, “They Jest Won't Talk,” under the di- rection of Miss Pearl Bryant of the high school faculty and Miss Edith Ramstad, and a song by the Elks quartet. Ausziliary to Entertain The American Legion Auxiliary will entertain the Legionnaires at a 12 o'clock noon luncheon in the dining room of the World War Memorial (Continued on Page Two) . Washington, Nov. 9.—(?)—American. Federation of Labor leaders looked hopefully Monday to a meeting of the International Ladies’ Garment Work- ers executive board for the first break in the John L, Lewis revolt.
