ECONOMIC UNITY ISURGED BY HULL International Program to Restore Stability Is Declared Vital. By the Associated Press. In a statement plainly aimed at troubled Europe, Secretary Hull yes- terday asserted that the nations must unite in an international program to restore economic stability before they can hope for peace or prosperity. The Secretary of State added, how- ever, that he knew of no current diplomatic discussions that might lead to negotiations for the reopen- ing of the London Economic Confer- ence or the calling of a new parley. But his assertiont that it was vitally necessary for the nations “to give immediate attention to adopting a sound and comprehensive economic program” was interpreted in Wash- ington as a suggestion that this coun- try was willing to at least talk about conference renewal. Difficulty to Be Met. The Secretary of State’s formal statement said: “The experience of most parts of the world in the last few years in their attempts to promote and pre- serve political stability, disarmament, peace and other necessary interna- tional relationships undoubtedly by this time has demonstrated the great | difficulty of making progress in these vastly important undertakings \Ahfle‘ a large portion of world populatlon is | unemployed and feeling the serious pinch of economic distress. “The necessity, therefore, was never | more apparent for the various coun- tries of the world to give immediate attention to the matter of adopting a sound and comprehensive economic program, both domestic and interna- tional, and carrying it forward to the end that normal processes of domestic and international finance and com- merce may be restored and tens of millions of unemployed wage earners may be re-employed. This would af- ford a solid foundation on which to| rebuild stable peace and political | structures.” Barriers Overlooked. Hull's statement, observers said, was prompted by his belief that Euro- | pean statesmen, now making frantic | efforts to solve the critical problems | resulting from Germany’s rearma- ment have overlooked the trade bar- riers they contend are one of the fundamental causes of the present situation. i The United States is now engaged | shaping the economic program that Hull believes holds the solution of | the world's problems—widespread ne- | gotiation of reciprocal trade pacts de- signed to reduce trade barriers of all kinds and restore a normal and profit- able trade between nations.

French Aid Expected. Prance, friend of the Little Entente, may not relish Mussolini's proposal, | but diplomats say she will nevertheless | support it.

LONDON, April 6 () —Great Brit- ain's attitude toward the revision of the peace treaties restricting Austrian, Hungarian and Bulgarian armies will be one of the knotty problems con- fronting Monday's cabinet session. Upon the final report presented by Capt. Anthony Eden, lord privy seal, after visiting Berlin, Moscow, Warsaw and Praha, the British program for Thursday's conference at Stresa with Prance and Italy will be formulated. A big problem apparently confronts the cabinet in reports from Paris that France will seek Italy’s aid and Eng- land's support in formally condemning German rearmament. 3 Such an effort would intrease the tension which Simon and Eden, in their peripatetic diplomacy, have sought to relieve. It is understood the British delegation will seek to tone down the French resolution, if it is presented, before the extraordinary meeting of the League of Nations Council April 15, which will consider the French appeal against Germany. Foreign Secretary Simon, Eden and possibly Prime Minister MacDonald will represent Great Britain at Stresa. SPECIAL NOTICES. E RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY Washington. D. repaired.

There Germany will be arraigned be- fore the League tribunal, with the French Foreign Minister Laval acting as prosecuting attorney. The British are working now be- hind the scenes endeavoring to convince the French not to be too bloodthirsty in their prosecution of the Reich. Sir John still hopes against hope that Germany might be induced to rejoin the family of nations. But if the French push their case too far and obtain a severe censure of Germany, Sir John fears this would slam the door in Germany's face and make any further effort to get them back to Geneva impossible. * ok ok x To the French, Sir John Simon's hope appears foolish. Hitler has ex- pressed himself in unequivocal terms against the French conception of “col- lective security.” This has always ap- peared to him ambiguous. Collec§ve security means to the Germans a mere disguise for a system of alliances de- signed to preserve the fruits of the victory of the allies in 1918, and as much opposed to any true interna- tional idea as the alliances which di- vided Europe in 1914. * ok K X The League of Nations has suffered recently another severe blow at the hands of an obscure French judge in Paris, who manhandled no other im- portant personage than Mr. Avenol himself.

The French courts ordered him to pay alimony to his former wife. When this distinguished gentle~ man was hoisted to the ezalted position as chief executive of the League he claimed diplomatic im- munity in his own country, assert- ing that he was now a citizen of the world and no longer a mere Frenchman, subject to the jurisdic- tion of the French tribunals. As such he did not have to pay his wife’s alimony. The case came before Judge Henri Masse in Paris. Avenol's lawyer de- clared his client did not have to obey the old judgment since now he had become: “The highest personality in the world; in fact, the only living official who had no superior.” The judge blinked. He had uever heard such a story before. “But who ap- points him? and especially who can fire him? he asked. “He is the equal of kings,” was the emphatic reply of Avenol's attorney. “Does he wear a uniform?” asked the judge again. The attorney had to admit that his client did not, but this because he was above such trivialities as gold braid and colored cloth. “Well, theua, he must pay,” retorted the judge. “The covenant of the League does not cover your client, who may be a high potentate at Geneva, but is just an ordinary common garden variety | Frenchman before this court.” * X X X The “British, while still fighting valiantly for preservation of peace i Europe are having the jitters lest Great Britain gets involved in some war adventure.

HUNTSVILLE, Tex., April 6.—Dap- per Raymond Hamilton, last of the Clyde Barrow outlaw gang, came back today to keep a date with death in the State's electric chair, Shackled and surrounded by a heavy guard, the elusive bank robber and convicted slayer was brought here from the Dallas County jail and placed in a death cell. Nine months ago he fled the prison's death row in a daring break with smuggled guns. Last night he was recaptured in a Fort Worth railroad yard. ‘The slight, 22-year-old desperado probably will die within 30 days, au- thorities said. Indiciments Sought. United States District Attorney Clyde O. Eastus announced that at least 40 persons will be indicted for conspiring to harbor the fugitive killer while he was at large. Joe Palmer, one of Hamilton’s com- panions in the death-row escape, prob- ably will die on the same day. He was recaptured in Kentucky. At least one more appeal will be made for Hamilton’s life. His mother, Mrs. Steve Davis of Dallas, told her son in his Dallas jail cell at dawn today she would go to Gov. James V. Allred with a plea for his life. Hamilton, visibly shaken when he first saw his mother, ran and em- braced her. He kissed tears from her cheeks, and for a half hour held her in his arms.

District Attorney Eastus authorized filing of charges today against Noland Allred and Glenn Allen, associates of Hamilton. Eastus said he had information to substantiate Allred’s story that Ham- ilton had buried a dead companion in Mississippi recently. Officers believe the companion to be Ralph Fults, ex- convict, who was known to have been traveling with Hamilton. Hamilton refused to describe his escape from the death house. | SEWER TO BE SEARCHED FOR MISSING BOY, 4 Children Say They Saw Chicago | Playmate Tumble Into River. “Mystery Man" Hunted. | By the Assoctated Press. | CHICAGO, April 6—Police pree pered tonight to search sewers along | the north branch of the Chicago River for Richard Max Perrot, 4, | mysteriously missing since Thursday.

The physician is in jail in default of $6,000 bail on charges of perform- ing two unlawful operations. He maintains when he last saw Mrs. Lawson she was alive. Authorities again questioned Rich- ard Parker, the doctor’s “hired man,” and then returned to Mechanics Grove to renew their search of the Zimmerly house, garage and barn. Tonight's activity centered around a hole in the ground under the barn. Housekeeper Is Witness. Parker, who is held for possessing narcotics, was quoted by Detective Weller as saying he saw the physician “hacking away” at the woman'’s body.
