ARGENTINA ENDS T Revolt Against Huey Long 1553 WHEAT PACT Production Control Outlook Darkened as Nation Drops Out of Accord. By the Associated Press. BUDAPEST, Hungary, December 1.— The International Wheat Conference drew to a dramatic close today with a clear-cut refusal of Argentina fur- ther to be bound by any provisions of the 1933 wheat pact. Thus the future control of world wheat production and trade is in grave doubt. ‘The sensational ending of the con- ference came during a secret meeting tonight, it was learned, when Ro- dolfo Garcia-Arias of Argentina gave what amounted to a second ultima- tum. After being under pressure by the others of the “Big Four'—the United States, Canada and Australia i —as well as Danubian nations who | were summoned to the meeting for several hours, Garcia-Arias told the ( conference his nation would not be bound by the pact because acreage reduction, which was the basis of al- lotments, failed during 1934. Charged Unfairness. Earlier in the week Garcia-Arias declined to accept the draft of an acreage limitation proposal under con- sideration here on the ground it was unfair to his country. Not only are quotas for the current year out of the question now, but later information revealed a new program to base future quotas on demand in- | stead of production has not been defi- nitely formulated The most hopeful outlook of the delegates now is that the “Big Four"” can come to some understanding in January, and that the next wheat conference, set for March 5, 1935, may approve quota amendments be- fore the next planting season, Others Dissatisfied. Garcia-Arias has been under tre- | mendous pressure for two weeks on all sides, although it was known Can- | ada and Australia also were dissatis- fled with the 1933 pact. They had little to say at the conference, how- ever, allowing Argentina to bear the brunt of the attack, in which the United States was the leader Because of the temporary Telief brought by the world-wide drought, the cry among traders against & continuation of government control and abandonment of the pact was a likely outcome of the conference, but it was Argentina's statement of her position which forced the issue into the open. CHURCH TOW(.JELEBRATE 230TH ANNIVERSARY Presented in Communion Set 1707 Will Be Put on Exhibition. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. HYATTSVILLE, Md., December 1.— The First Presbyterian Church of Hyattsville will celebrate the 230th anniversary of its congregation De- cember 9, when Rev. D. Hobart Evans, pastor, will deliver a specigl sermon at 11 am. and greetings will be read from prominent figures in the Pres- byterian Church. The communion set, which was pre- sented to the church in 1707 by Queen Anne of England, through Col. Ninian Beall of Upper Marlboro. will be brought out of the bank vault for display at the service. It was Col. Beall who deeded land in Upper Marlboro to the congrega- tion in 1704 for the first building for a Presbyterian congregation. This marked the start of the present Hyattsville church. In 1718 the church was moved to Bladensburg and then in 1874 to Hyattsville. The old deed from Col. Beall is still on file at the court house at Upper Marlboro, yellow with age and in some parts illegible. 12 WOUNDED BY BOMBS IN DOWNTOWN HAVANA Explosions Set Off During and After Rush Hour—Young Girl Among Injured.

Whether the French will | take to it is & question. Some say | The fact is that there are very few countries in the world where the Roosevelt New Deal has created more interest and more comment than in France. French newspapers, which until the 1932 election were contented to print & few dispatches from the United States, mostly about gangsters and prohibition, give now as much space to this country as to Germany, Italy and Great Britain. | Until two years ago they were served by the few dispatches of a French news agency which was covering perfunctorily Washington and New York, with one man in each city. Now that agency has @ | staff of about 15 men and most of the leading newspapers have spe- | cial correspondents either perma=- nently in this country or on an eI- tensive tour of investigation. The New Deal appeals to these papers. * k% x Doumergue fell because he based his administration on a political issue | —the revision of the French constitu- tion. “Let’s go to Versailles,” he de- manded, “and change this old consti- tution, which answers no longer its! purpose.” The changing of the con- stitution meant the pulling of the teeth of the members of the chamber. And Doumergue was overthrown be- fore he could say Jack Robins. Flandin is careful about playing with fire and bases his program on the improvement of economic condi- tions in France. “Once the country is under a lesser economic strain politics will take care of themselves. | Hunger breeds revolutions, hence | hunger must be avoided.” Fundamentally his ideas are not similar to those of Mr. Roosevelt, | inasmuch as he believes that there has been already too much govern- mental interference with business since the war. But, as a temporary measure, .in order to start the wheels of the economic machinery running again he | proposes to intensify the governmental intervention in business. He agrees with Mr. Cordell Hull that “the world will be saved by economic | liberalism such as breaking down tariff | barriers and the other obstructions | to international trade.” But there | again, he thinks that this liberalism must come gradually because “the | sudden change from drastic limita- tions based on economic and political nationalism to a regime of intense freedom would be a remedy worse than the present ills.” Consequently he proposes to enforce the quota sys- tems and the high tariffs still more drastically than his predecessors, be- fore he can break them down alto- gether. The main thing he intends to take from the American New Deal is direct support for the unem- ployed, an extensive housing pro- gram (with bath rooms in every cottage) and a still more extensive public works program. How the French will like this idea of spending above the income of the state is a question which the French Parliament will have to decide upon. * x kX Mussolini and the Hungarians are showing the liking for each other by exchanging presenfs. Some time ago Il Duce presented the Hungarian government with an airplane appropriately named “Jus- tice for Hungary.” This present caused as much sensation in Central Europe as the famous shipping of “agricultural implements” from Milan to Budapest in 1926, when it was discovered at the Czechoslovakian frontier that the huge boxes actually held machine guns for the Hungarian Army. Since Admiral Horty and his gov- ernment could not offer Italy a similar present, it was decided to give Musso- lini a personal gift. Since Il Duce plays the fiddle in his leisure moments, the Hungarian gov- ernment ordered a violin from Hun- gary’s outstanding violin maker, Jo- seph Hindy. The violin which took Hindy 11 months to make is called “Opus 50,” being the fiftieth instru- ment the Hungarian manufacturer has made in his long career.

None of these huge ships, expensive to build and still more expensive to operate, can possibly be a paying proposition for the shipping com- panies, especially since the falling off of the tourist trade between Europe and America. But the respective gov- ernments are making good the com- panies’ losses. EXTENSION SERVICE RETIRES STEDMAN, Specialist Honored at Luncheon by Colleagues—Ends 26 Years on Staff. John M.

CLEVELAND, December 1.—Suf- fering from a Caesarin operation and saddened by the death of her litter of three kittens, 9-year-olld Susie, proud Bengal tigress, died today in a Cleve- land zoo. Her entire life spent in captivity, Susie had failed to develop sufficiently to give a noraml birth to her kitten trio, veterinarians said. Two veterinarians worked 10 hours last Wednesday to deliver the first two of the tigress’ kittens and then called Dr. K. K. Goekjian to perform the operation to deliver the third. For two days Susie rallied slightly, but perintonitis finally set in. Last night Dr. Goekjian and the other two veterinarians, Dr. Clifford Wagner and Harry Roberts, continued the fight to save the tigress by in- jecting in her veins a solution of dextrose, acriflavia and salt. Early today, however, Susie died. In another cage nearby her mate, Mojah, was the only witness of her death. Mass., | INBELGRADE NOTE Rome Alarmed by Yugo- slav Charge Against Hun- gary in King’s Slaying. By the Assoclated Press. ROME, December 1.—Conflict, bad feeling and perhaps even graver pos- sibilities stare from the pages of the memorandum Yugoslavia presented to the League of Nations demanding an investigation of the responsibilities for the assassination of King Alex- ander. That is the Italian view. The mem- orandum, some Italians say, may be a live coal thrown into the European powder keg. A government spokesman told the Associated Press that it would be much better to let the matter run its course in the courts of the several countries—France, Italy and Hun- gary—where persons suspected of complicity in the assassination have been arrested. ‘Trouble Seen in Offing. Taking the matter before the League of Nations and openly de- manding _an investigation means trouble, Italians say, because the Yugoslav memorandum demands the searching out of the responsibilities for the assassination. | The Slav kingdom's assertion that | these responsibilities amount to a plot against Yugoslavia, long prepared abroad, is viewed here as an exceed- ingly grave charge, possibly contain- ing the implication of Italian respon- sibility. Italian detectives, acting on a French request, are holding in Turin Dr. Ante Pavelich, who, France charges, headed the Marseille con- spiracy, and his asserted lieutenant, Egon Kvaternik. A French request for their extradition, however, has been denied. Hungary and Italy politically are | semi-allies, united by a pact which | requires each to consult the other before taking any step that would react upon the other power. When | the Yugoslav demand comes before the League assembly, the government | has indicated, they will act together. With Yugoslavia will be her allies of the Little Entente, Rumania and Czechoslovakia, which supported her memorandum to the League. Foreign Minister Bogoljub Yevtich consulted | the foreign ministers of the other members of the Little Entente, and they agreed to back the Yugoslav demand. If Yugoslavia seeks to force exten- | sion of the investigation to within the borders of Italy, will the Rome government permit it? High official circles reply, “Certainly not.” Hun- gary might be more amenable, but it is considered probable that, with Italian backing. she will adopt® the | same attitude. Deadlock Is Predicted. The result, it is predicted here, will be deadlock, and the aftermath of the accusations and counter-accusations, bad feeling. Yugoslavia's action before the League pushes further into the back- ground any possibility of Italo-Yugo- slav rapprochement, and therefore influences the efforts for Italo-French understanding. A government spokesman here ex- pressed the belief that Yugoslavia was bringing the demand before the League in an effort to distract at- tention from her supposedly uncertain internal situation. Reports here are that Hungary is willing to accept international regula- tion of the political exiles question. Italy, which has hundreds of exiled anti-Fascists living abroad. probably would welcome such an agreement.

U.S. Shous Few Signs of Slump, "AI'Y S[ES P[R"' Says Priestley After Survey English Author Surprised at Faith in Roosevelt, but Not ices “Government” Is Still Held in Doubt by Masses. In his recent book, “English Journey,” which created wide dis- cussion in England and won the praise of critics and readers in this country, J. B. Priestley set down his impressions of social and eco- nomic developments in England. Now, after a leisurely ramble through the United States he writes _entertainingly of what he finds here. Priestley, one of the most distinguished of British nov- elists, has written such best sellers as “Good Companions” and “Angel Pavement.” BY J. B. PRIESTLEY. NEW YORK, December 1—These notes are based, of course, on a brief and superficial experience. But they are the notes of an unblased observer, who for some time now has been paid to notice things. Let us begin with the general ap- pearance of the United States. It does not show as many signs of the depression as I expected it would. ‘When I was here last, the slump had just begun, and I notice a number of comparatively small differences be- tween then and now. Thus, things seem to be cheaper and people miore anxious to. have your custom than they were before. Possibly in my hurried journey across the continent I have missed the places that have suffered worst, but certainly I have seen remarkably few signs of real distress. I could take you to places in England that are a thousand times worse than any- thing I have seen here, whole dis- tricts in our industrial north that have been murdered by the slump. If their equivalent exist here, I have missed them. Though, mark you, there are regions in the United States that obviously have a wretchedly low standard of living, and apparent!y have never known anything else; hor- rible little towns composed of wooden shacks, roads all mud and ruts, tin | cans and the rusted skeletons of mo- tor cars. Such regions, however, have not been changed by the depression. They were always like that. “ Loyalty to President. Most of the people I have listened to. from New York to Arizona, have a curiously mixed attitude toward the political authorities. First, they have a loyalty to and affection for the President himself. No British states- man commands such loyalty and af- fection. No member of the present British government deserves them. People give Mr. Roosevelt the credit for making a great creative ef- fort. Our world is in more need of such efforts today than it is of any- thing else, for we have arrived at a time when the organizers of social economic and political life are cen- turies behind the skilled producers, the engineers, the manufacturers, even the very farmers. England is muddling along fairly successfully at the moment, simply because England is a small, compact and still very rich country, but no such creative effort as Mr. Roosevelt's is being made in England, and I have been delighted to discover that he still has his citizens behind him. But along with this personal loyalty to the chief there goes a tremendous suspicion of “the Government.” When you are talking in railway dining cars, hotel lounges and the like, you do not ask & man to define his terms, so that I do mot know exactly what is meant by this “Government.” It seems to represent an unnamed bunch of extravagant and perhaps crooked politicians, who care about nothing but taking great wads of the tax- payers' money and spending it reck- lessly. I have heard a great deal of grum- bling on this score, and I have found it difficult to convince my American {riends that even now I pay more in taxes than they do, but the ordinary American citizen seems to be thor- oughly awake today to the evils of the “spoils” system. and is tired, at least, of the loud-mouthed, glad- handing politician, anxious to give out jobs to his pals and to treat pub- lic money as if it were something he had won in a sweepstake. On the other hand, like people in other democratic countries, he still CUT grades of rice and buckwheat coal; save installation charges; no di no-special grates necessary; cur- rent costs average lc per day.

YOUR COAL BILL TO 56.00 A TON With Controlled Heat makes the mistake of supposing that politics is, in some mysterious fash- ion, other people’s affairs, and not his own, of assuming that he is not master in his own country. It is political words and not polit- ical measures that seem to frighten the American. Thus he will approve of Government action that is really socialistic in principle, but on the other hand he will still talk of Social- ists, radicals and “reds” as if they were strange, horrible monsters, eaters of children. In the same way, though he is peaceably inclined himself and only too ready to deplore the war-monger- ing in Europe he reads about, he talks of “pacifists” as if they, too, were creatures who ought to be outlawed from decent society. ‘The fact is that he has carried over | from the pre-slump period the violent prejudices aroused by these mere names, although actually by this time he himself is probably both a radicai | and a pacifist. Being a Democrat, I like the democ- racy of America, and prefer it to the social muddle of English life, which is neither a democracy nor an aris- | tocracy, but an uneasy snobbish mix- | ture of both. I have no patience with some of your writers here who pro- fess a great contempt for democracy ! and advocate an aristocratic system. ‘These writers, I fancy, assume a little too easily that under an aristocratic system they would be among the aris- tocrats, and forget that they might be wedged in among the lower classes, touching their caps at the great man's lodge gates. They are like Bernard Shaw, who professes a like contempt for liberty of speech, but takes care to go on living in a country where he is allowed to say what he likes. Two Democracies. There are, however, two democracies in America, it seems to me. There is the democracy of bad manners and the democracy of good manners. You meet the first chiefly in the cities, and it is not pleasant. It assumes that democracy means that everybody has a right to be rude to everybody else all | the time. The “Say, listen, brother” man is typical of these democrats, | who appear to suffer from a bad in- feriority’ complex. You seem to find the other democ- racy, that of easy but good manners, well outside the cities, and perhaps at best in the West. To an Englishman, heartily sick of the uneasy class pre- Judices and snobberies of his own| | island, there is something very re- | freshing about these Westerners, with | their friendly quality, free alike from | patronage or servility. Will this real | democracy last, or is it merely a lin- | gering relic of cattle-punching and prospecting days? Here, anyhow, is the germ of the classless society, in which men are | really free and equal, which most ! good people would like to see estab- lished in the world. “Now, folks,” says the guide, “just come this way. please.” It is good to be “folks.” No sensible people would ever want to be anything but “folks.” | America must cherish this democracy of good, easy manners, for it is one; | of her finest possessions | “I think the folks in the West are |grand folks. In my trip &cross the States this time I noticed the great idmerences there are in people here. | In the big cities you meet fine people, | ! but you also seem to see, about the -| streets, more shifty-looking men, more potential scoundrels, than you seé | almost anywhere else in the world | “I am quite prepared to believe, 'as your criminal records would no doubt prove, that most of these fel- | | lows are among Europe’s fairly recent | contributions to your population.

The Bureau of Navigation, Navy Department, it was learned yesterday, is giving serious consideration to a proposal by which all future naval officers would be qualified as flyers. Under the plan now being studied, every candidate for the Naval Acad- emy would be required to qualify physically for training in aviation and | taught to fiy as a midshipman. Ad- ditional flight training would be given | after graduation, but they would have | diversified duty asignments, rotating between sea and air details. Officers who have been considering the proposal are convinced the plan to require every midshipman to be physically fit to fly would solve a number of problems which have arisen in the Navy since aviation became an important arm of the sea forces. In the Navy, there are very few berths for high ranking aviators who have not had all-around naval train- ing. The situation has proved em- barrassing to flying officers when they come up for selection and also when they become physically incapable of flying. It is understod that at least half of the graduates of the Naval Academy are not qualified as flyers, and it often has been found difficult to ob- tain sufficient officers personnel for air assignment. When this com- missioned personnel is expanded in a manner necessary to man the pro- posed treaty navy, it will be found impossible to train enough young officers for the necessary aviation de- | tail. Unless the training is begun | at once, Navy officers see the necessity | of calling reserve officers to active duty to fill the aviation assignments. | While the plan would allow the re- | cruiting of additional Navy aviators from Annapolis, which is desired by high Navy officials, it also presents the difficulty that the physical require- ments for flying might eliminate many of the successful candidates for the Naval Academy. share in your gigantic engineering feats.

Sands left for Chicago hurriedly Friday night due to pressure of his duties there.

Officials of the Federal Emergency Relief Ad- ministration declined to make a state- ment pending Allen’s return to work tomorrow Rosichan himself said he was un- aware of the contents and had not been apprised officially of the rec- ommendation for his replacement.
