Latest official figures showed the economy campaign would cut estimated expenditures for the fiscal year 1934 $345,000.000 under appropriations for the 1933 period, with the major reduc- tions broken down as follows: Disability compensation for troubles | attributed to service, cut from $203.- 689.169 to $118.272.240.

By an acute case, officials said they meant some veteran who suddenly was strick- en with appendicitis and who, under | old laws, could get treatment, but no | longer will be able to. The administration now is compiling A list of several thousand names for membership on the boards to review the presumptive cases, which will be sent along to President Roosevelt for his_consideration.

Sanders, 60-year-old head of the narcotic squad and one of the best known figures on the force. and Charles Mullen, handy man of the Detective Bureau, are the men who will answer their last roll call tonight. They are being retired because they failed to pass recent physical requirements. Both Mullen and Sanders were pro- moted to duty at headquarters about the same time—in 1907. Mullen, ap- pointed to the force in 1896, has three ly:?lx more service than Sanders. He Sanders, nemesis of drug peddlers, quacks and fakers, is recognized as one of the best men in the country in his line. Known to his associates familiar- ly as “Doc” he always has been reluc- tant to discuss his experiences. But others in the bureau tell hair-raising stories of the exploits of the studious slow-spcken veteran. Sanders lives with through the fog, but steamed into port here just as the Amberjack pulled in.

The American delegates remained mum about whether they met to con- sider word from President Roosevelt, but an authoritative scurce said Amer- ican adherence to a plan under which the conference could progress was un- der consideration. Important American quarters indi- cated that Mr. Moley. as the Presi- dents personal representative, had re- ceived authority to agree to a plan. But it was made plain that de facto stabili- zation, in the sense of fixing the dollar at a definite level, was out of the ques- tion, and the President must be left to consider the American | free to use whatever inflationary pow- ers he may desire in pursuance of his domestic program. French quarters made it clear that definite stabilization of the dollar was no longer sought and they would oe satisfied with an understanding that sudden wide changes would be pre- verted through checking speculation or “How are you.

Late this afternoon the - French finance minister and another member of the Paris delegation, together with Sir Frederick Leith-Ross of the British treasury, conferred with Mr. Moley. Senator Key Pittman, Senator James Couzens and Herbert Bayard Swope, who accompanied Mr. Moley to Lon- don. The meeting took place at the United States embassy home. After half an hour the visitors left. presumably to go to a meeting with Prime Minister MacDonald. Called on Roosevelt. It was understood. on high authority, that Secretary of State Hull and Mr. Moley sent a message to the President advising him that America should join Europs in an effort to halt speculation. In the meantime. while President Roosevelt'’s answer was awaited, the gold bloc still stood pat on its ulti- matum to quit the conference urless immediate action were forthcoming. Italy in Gold Bloc. ‘The gold stand and group. which now includes Italy, as weli as France, Hol- land, Switzerland and Belgium, met this morning with a British representa- tive to discuss the situation, but de- cided that nothing further could be done pending Mr. Roosevelt's answer. ‘The exact nature of the message from Hull and Moley to the President was not disclosed, but well-informed quar- ters understood it strongly advised the American Chief Executive that there be a change in policy as regards con- troliing too abrupt movements of cur- rency. It was understood that Moley and Hull in their cablegram also conveyed |to the President the gold bloc’s pro- posal for a solution to the difficulty. Before its dispatch to America the message was submitted to the United States and British delegations. Reported Formula. A paraphrase of the suggestion is said to be like this: ‘The signing powers reaffirm their faith in the gold standard. The powers already on gold declare their intention to do everything within their power to remain on gold and maintain the pres- ent parity The powers off gold declare the in- tention to return to gold as soon as possible, but it is for each country to decide when and at what rafe. The present non-gold powers express ap- the gold bloc to hold its ition and declare the intention of aiding in stop- ping speculation. Until stabilization and a return to gold are possible all signatories join in agreeing to strive to prevent undue currency fluctuations. The Bank of France is understood on high authority to have come to the aid of the Dutch guilder. This assistance is sald to have been responsible for steadying the guilder the last four days after a sharp drop. ‘The French are said to have ob- tained the Dutch promise to pay what- ever loan the Bank of France has made in Prench francs at the present parity, the French thus avoiding a loss if the guilder should depart from gold. 800 RETURN TO WORK Only One Strike. but one strike. night were not announced.

By the Associated Press. BERLIN, June 30—Protestant churchmen in Prussia must choose next Sunday between dictates of con- sclence and dictates of an increasingly powerful Nazl government If they choose one, they will approve the Nazis' wish for dominance of all walks of life, including religion: if they choose the other, they will be liable to_prosecution. ‘Their own leaders have asked that Bunday be a day of prayer—of suppli- cation for freedom to conduct their religious life as they desire. But Nazi commissioners have ordered that the day be one of thanksgiving in which pastors and elders shall thank God that the Hitlerites control theoreti- cally the churches as they do the in- dustrial, political and ccmmercial life of the Reich. Must Fly Nasi Flags. Tne Nazis have ordered further that f2gs be flown at the churches. the black, white and red of old and the new Germany, and the swastika emblem under which the Hitlerites have grown in_power.

Dr. von Bodelschwingh's followers i consider it especially unfair that Nazi commissioners should try po make any body declining to fly the fl.gs look like {an enemy of the state. and those who do s0 seem to indorse the government's church re-organization. Three Decrees Issued. The Nazi commissioners issuer three decrees: The first, addressed to Prussian Protestant clergymen, forbade pastors to criticize the government's church measures on pain of disciplinary pun- ishment and dismissal from office and even criminal prosecution. The second told the church congre- gations that “until the hour strikes when the Protestant Church has a new constitution, all acts against the well meant intention of the state must be regarded as acts of disobedience, no matter where or by whom committed.” The third threatened disciplinary punishment for any superintendent who obeys or spreads the pastoral letter of the superintendents-general. Meanwhile, as a continuation of the Nazi church policy. Rev. Ludwig Mu ler declared himself head of the Ger- man Evangelical Union and chairman of the Portestant Supreme Council. He issued a statement saying a state of emergency exists which endangers “the essential unity of the people and the church.” It was he who was re- jected when the church groups elected Dr. von Bodelschwingh. a non-political candidate, as Reichbishop, & position he wanted. 3 Catholic Centrists May Disband. Political circles considered.imminent today the voluntary disbanding of the Catholic Center party, the last nan- Nazi political group in Germany. Facing a threat of dissolution by the government of Chancellor Hitler. Cen- trist leaders met here and are believed to have reached an agreement with the Hitlerites whereby their 73 Reichstag members will, like those of the dissolved Nationalists. join the Nazis as pitants, or “guests.” Such an eventuality would swell the Nazis' mandates to 417 of a total of 441 seats in Parliament, now recessed. The other seats are held by Bavarian Populists, whose leaders are in protec- ! tive custody, and split-up parties. The Socialists and Communists have been eliminated by the Nazis. Meanwhile another step toward the Nazi “unification” of Germany Wwas {taken with the announcement of Rob- ert Ley, Hitler's trade union commis- sioner, that Protestant and Catholic workers' and apprentices’ societies were incorporated into one Nazi labor front. Kurt Schmitt, head of the largest in- surance firm on the continent, and Walter Darre, who has been Chancellor Hitler's chief farm adviser, were ap- pointed yesterday as ministers of eco- nomics and agriculture, respectively. New Ministers Named. They succeed to the two portfolios in the Hitler cabinet. which were held by Dr. Alfred Hugenberg. They also suc- ceed the Nationalist leader in the cor- responding portfolios in the Prussian State government. ‘The announcement of their appoint- ments followed upon a flying visit by Hitler to the home of President von Hindenburg in Neudeck. East Prussia. It was announced that the aged presi- dent. who empowered Hitler as chan- cellor and surrounded him with a cab- inet including mostly Nationalists, ac- cepted Dr. Hugenberg's resignation. Jewish Partnership Banned. No Aryan attorney is permitted to have any connection, such as a partner- ship or joint offices, with a Jewish at- torney, under rules issued today by the Berlin Federation of Attorneys. Nor may any Aryan attorney engage a Jew for legal investigation. The ban also extends to lawyers ex- cluded from the federation for Leftist leanings.
