NEW YORK, June 1 (#).—The Italian Ambassador to the United States, Giacomo Nobile de Martino, walked down the gangway of the Cosulich liner Saturnia today flanked by & dozen policemen—a special guard detailed to protect him from any pos- sible hostile demonstration. ‘The Ambassador, smiling and un- concerned, regarded the precautions as unnecessary. Police, however, were fearful that anti-Fascists, aroused by outbreaks in Italy, might make the Ambassador the target of a demon- stration, Both the Italian state flag, in honor of the Ambassador, and the cardinal's flag, in honor of Mgr.

(Continued From First Page.) girl aided the cryptographers in “break- ing” certain of the bafing codes used | by Spain during the war is told in the | book. The code messages, it was ex- plained, were intercepted by a*®Maine wireless station as they passed between | Berlin and Madrid. Yardley declared he had been informed that Spain was suspected of assisting German espionage. ‘Yardly told of requesting a certain “Capt. Brown,” whose eorrect name he did not reveal, to obtain for him a local soclety girl to assist him in learn- ing the Sfrlmsh code. “This girl must speak Spanish like a native,” the captain was advised. “She must have not only culture and charm, but also brains. She must be a con- versationalist. She must have as her background the nationalistic traditions of the Navy, or the Army, or the diplo- matic corps. Her age must be close to 30. All these requirements she abso- lutely must have. As for beauty—I'll let you be the judge.” “Miss Abbott” Obtained. The captain, it is declared, went to a woman ruler of Washington society, identified fictitiously 'Mrs. Blakeslee, and returned the next day with an at. tractive brunette, with eyes “brown and large.” The book disguises her as “Miss Abbott.” In an interview with her, Yardley learned “Miss Abbott” was acquainted with members of the Spanish embassy staff and was willing to “cultivate the acquaintance” of others. She agreed to learn the name of the staff member who superyised codes for the embassy. When she returned the following day with the correct name Yardley asked how she managed it. “Quite by accident,” she said, “I ran into one of the embassy staff last night. During our conversation I mentioned that I was seriously thinking of doing something more interesting_than_pro- moting Liberty bond sales. The United States was adding to its stafls both here and abroad. I couldn't type or take dictation, but perhaps I could be a file clerk or perhaps decode telegrams. Was it so terribly difficult? And so on. Finally the name of Gomez came ug and mention of his connection wit codes.” Continues Operations. The author says he has changed the Spaniard’s name for obvious reasons. “Do you know Gomez?” I asked. ‘Not now, but——" Then you wish to continue?” “Of course; I'd love to.” Eventually, Yardley states, “Miss Ab- bott” succeeded in obtaining one of the codes, and also in securing a Chilean code. With reference to the latter, Yardley remarks: “Just how she obtained this en- cipherment is unknown to me, for she was very secretive about the matter. She never asked for any funds. Whether she was adroit enough to ob- tain it without giving any considera- ation or whether she purchased it with her own money, I have no way of knowing.” ‘ Active in Arms Parley. yardley says the “Black Chamber” functioned actively during the Wash- ington arms conference, and the book reproduces messages purportedly ex- chang-d between foreign delegates and their governments. The messages were read by American officlals with little difficulty, he points out. . The operations of the “chamber” wers disapproved as “unethical” in 1929 when a_new Secretary of State assumed office, Yardley says, and it passed out of existence at that time. 4. S.

The recent meeting here of the In- ternational Chamber of Commerce is characterized as an attempt by Euro- pean nations to “wreck the economic structure” of this country by Matthew Woll, a vice president of the American Federation of Labor, in a statement made public today. Woll, who 1s president of the Amer- ican Wage Earners’ Conference, assert. ing that the chamber had not developed a “real idea,” attacked the European delegates for what he termed an at- tack on American standards of living and American delegates foy “smother- ing” those attacks instead of meeting them openly. Opposes Cancellation. Hitting at debt cancellation proposals, ‘Yoll said that was “out of the ques- tion.” Asserting that European delegates came to pull America down to the European level of living, Woll said: “If ever a group of nations deliber- ately set out to wreck the economic structure of another nation, the nations of Europe set out on such an expedition when they sailed to attend this con- vention. * * * Instead of seeking to rectify its own ills, Europe here sought to pull herself up by pulling America down.” Cowardice Charged. “s * s The European attack was dissipated, but by something that ap- proached cowardice. Better far had the issue been faced and fearlessly talked to_pieces.” oll said American opinion, in so far as it has been formed or expressed, is against cancellation, in part or in whole, of the war debt. “Cancellation today is out of the question,” he said. $800,000,000 BOND ISSUE BY TREASURY AIDS DEBT PROBLEM| (Continued From First Page) duction was smaller than in the preced. ing month.

The events of the last few days, he said, were “the first manifestation of proof of an education that is the an- tithesis of Christian and civil educ: tion and entirely given to hate, to ir- reverence and to violence. “It is the saddest spectacle to which Rome and Italy have been treated and it has revealed already how far ad- vanced is the work of destruction of all good education.” Calling his seventy-fourth birthday sad and unhappy,” the Pope continued: “It is well known that we have the right and, therefore, the duty to in- voke the treaty and the concordat. The Catholic world and the whole world has the right to know that when we were confronted with opposition and non-observance of the eventual unilat- eral decisions we have not failed to take the proper measures and that these measures are now in progress. Censorship Is Cited. “As we sald last night, one can ask for cur life but not our silence, when all the things that form the delight of our heart and the delight of God are being ruined. “These things are being ruined,” the pontiff said, because in Fascist Italy | “even the least parochial bulletin must undergo censorship.” “First there was a press campaign,” he sald, “based on irreverence and calumnies; then another street cam- paign also based on irreverence and veritable indecency, overpowering with violence, and crueity, cf the few by the many, always to the injury of our sons and even of our daughters. “This campaign, thus prepared, broke yesterday on the Catholic associations of all of Italy with incredible suddenness, with invasions, confiscations, and se- questrations, while the night before our nuncio and our representative was told ;‘mn there was nothing to be said to im. “We thought, and we still think, that we deserved a very different treat- ment.” ‘The pontiff declared that in his first encyclical he was the first to “show the way and hour to peace and concilia- tton,” and this disposition, he said, he had continued to display.

Again, he said. in an open letter to the archbishop of Milan, he had invoked co-operation. Finally, he said, in his recent en- cyclical, he noted “with pleasure Italy's 0-operative movement” and added: The whole world knows how we were treated regarding that which is near- est to our hearts, and which we have often shown is religious and not po- litical in character.” Youth ought to be glad and proud to suffer for the church, he said, and he knew they were animated by this high jdeal. “Therefore, it is useless to tell you not to fear,” he went on. “We add also that we shall be with you forever.” He reminded them that the bishops now are their leaders and that they Pontiff Hears Report in Audience must await the hour when divine Providence gives light and peace.

Carmody, supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus, said here last night he will forward a protest to the Italian government over the closing of playgrounds maintained by the Knights of Columbus in that country. If the Itallan government denies the protest, he sald, he will call & meeting decide what steps to take. “No government has any right to deprive its children of playgrounds.” Carmody sald. “I am sending protests to the Italian government in the name of the Knights of Columbus of America as our first step toward reopening play- grounds in that country.” He explained that the Knights of Co- lumbus, incorporated in the United States, owns and has charge of six play- grounds in Italy, representing an invest- ment of $700,000. Mr. Carmdy, whose home is in Grand Rapids, Mich., was here to speak at a banquet commemorating the twenty- fifth anniversary of the lodge here. Several hundred persons engaged in fist fights and strong forces of mounted and foot g'ollce were required to quell the disturbance.

TOKIO, June 1.—A Rengo agency dispatch from Samushiro today said Thomas -Ash, jr, had abandoned his proposed non-stop flight across the Pacific and was returning to Tokio. Ash’s abandonment of the flight was atributed by the Rengo dispatch to fail- ure of his plane to come up to expecta- tions in several particulars. The mes- sage sald the motor failed to run per- fectly and had developed only enough power for 1,650 revolutions per minute when at least 1850 were needed to rise | with his heavy load of fuel.

The message also mentioned a bent left auxiliary wing and said Ash had found the plane did not respond properly to the controls. Prior to the announcement that he would abandon the flight. Ash reduced his gasoline supply to 900 gallons. He had originally supplied the ship with 1,020 gallons, but twice reduced the amount when it was evident the plane would not take off.
