By the Associated Press. BERLIN, September 7.—Dr. Alfred Rosenberg’s neo-pagan, or Germanic, movement, which has often challenged “political Catholictsm,” itself came under fire today for trying to organize young people’s groups. The Hitler youth leader of Thuringia asserted In a sharp statement that such attempts were considered sabo- tage against his organization and that Hitler youths who felt membership in s sect was more important than a Hitler youth membership would have to resign from the latter party. The neo-paganists, who seemed to have had at least semi-official Nazi epproval and who have been said to have close connections with the Hitler youth movement, were attacked on the same grounds on which they had pre- viously taken issue with Catholicism. Catholic preachers were drawing up their Sunday sermons with unusual care as the result of a letter signed by Johannes Cardinal Bertram, senior cardinal, urging them to preach “fundamental truths” and avoid ref- erences to politics. Repercussions from last Sunday’s pastoral letter was believed back of the statement, which was seen as a warning that tomorrow's sermons ‘would be watched closely for any pos- sible basis for counter action.

Pope Pius came here from his Sum- mer retreat at Castel Gandolfo to celebrate & mass for an international convention of World War veterans. “We desire that with peace the aspirations of this good people, all their needs, shall be satisfied, recog- nized and assured,” he said, referring to Italy; “but with justice and with | peace, with justice because against justice there is only sin, and sin makes the people miserable.” A delegation of American Legion- naires was among those who heard the Pontiff. Fifteen thousand war veterans from throughout the world opened a three-day conclave today. Every nation which participated in the hostilities of 20 years ago was Tepresented. The authoritative Giornale d'Italia said tonight groups of armed Senus- sites (a North African Moslem sect) are concentrating on the border of Libya, an Italian possession, with “mysterious support.” In an article directed against Brit- ish influence in Egypt, the Giornale demanded to know who is furnish-| ing the Senussites with arms and| favoring their “aggressive” designs. ‘The steamers Liguria and Pollenzo left Naples tonight with 3,120 officers and men and 644 mules for East Africa, while the steamer Piemonte left Genoa with 2,000 men and a small shipment of mules and sup- Pplies. All animals in the Italy Army must bear Italian names, the ministry of war declared today. The order was because of the tendency of officers to give their horses English and French names. 24 WARSHIPS AT ALEXANDRIA. | British Planes Constantly Patrol Vicinity of Aboukir.

DUNFERMLINE, Scotland, Septem- ber 7 (#)—Sir Thomas Inskir, attor- ney general, in a speech today de- clared, “the nation is behind the gov- ernment and the Ttalian dictator would do well, perhaps, to apprise himself of that fact. The calmness and steadiness of our nation have made a real impression in Europe.” He warned against single-handed British action, asserting if sanctions succeed they must be universal. A notice of 14 days prior to dis- missal was given to 3,800 coal miners at Durham, England, today because of “slackness in trade due to the Italo- Ethiopian dispute.” SPAIN MAY FIGHT SANCTIONS. Cabinet to Discuss Envoy's Recall if Question Comes Up. MADRID, September 7 (#).—Cabi- et ministers, it was learned tonight, will discuss Monday the gquestion of a possible withdrawal of the Spanish delegate, Salvador de Madariaga from the League's Five-power Committee at Geneva if the matter of sanctions come up for discussion in the Italo- Ethopian dispute.

The decision was “eminently fair on the law and on the facts,” his tele- gram asserted. The National Committee for the De- fense of Political Prisoners wired Brodsky that its organization of writ- ers and other professionals “wishes to commend most heartily your decision in freeing Bremen defendants.” Berlin Attacks Jurist. BERLIN, September 7 () .—Ger- many lashed out today at the decision of Magistrate Louis B. Brodsky of New York in releasing the steamer Bremen rioters, who recently tore the Nazi flag from the ship’s mast. Calling the act an insult to the German flag and American justice, a foreign office organ said: “If this judge speaks for American justice, the German people feel deeply wounded.” y The entire press bitterly assailed the Brodsky decision, columns on the subject overshadowing all other news. Ordinarily sedate papers bristled with strong language. “Brodsky,” said the Tageblatt, “be- longs in the category of wandering East Europeans from whom it cannot be expected that he understand the strong feeling which good Americans have for their own and foreign flags.” BOARD WILL CHOOSE NEW MAJOR GENERAL Swanson Names Group to Con- vene Tomorrow to Pick Officer of Marine Corps. A new major general for the Marine Corps will be chosen by a board or- dered by Secretary Swanson to con- vene tomarrow at the Navy Depart- ment.

Clark, chairman of the General Board, is expected to be in session here 10 days and then submit its choice to Secretary Swanson. The cabinet officer will later transmit this selection to President Roosevelt who, if he approves, will send the nomina- tion to the Senate for confirmation. —_— Col. Hackett Defends President.

America is the only important country, it was pointed out, that lacks a complete guide book.

The guide book will be deposited in State institutions and | libraries and sold for a nominal sum. The plan has the backing of the vari- | ous automobile associations, learned | societies, art associations and progres- | sive educational groups. Progress to Be Reported. Other parts of the writing program include a service to provide regular detailed reports of progress of the works program, preparation of an encyclopedia of Government func- tions and a limited number of special studies by qualified individual writers. The art program will involve the rehabilitation of artists who have lost part of their skill through long unemployment, the encouragement | and further training of artists who have shown definite ability, but lack public recognition, and the develop- ment of a market for art products. A National Advisory Commitiee, composed of representatives in the art fields involved, will be set up to es- tablish standards and act as a final board of arbitration. Local commit- tees will be formed to pass on the professional competence of eligible workers. Sculptors, craftsmen and commercial designers, besides regular painters, will be able to find employ- ment. Musical Program Two-Fold. In like manner the W. P.

The period 1909-1914 is used by the department for a base in figuring the monthly indices. The department said a decline in cotton exports was the principal cause for the low index in July. The month’s cotton Index was 84, lowest for that month since July, 1931, when the index was 75. Total cotton exports | for July were 292,000, compared with 362,000 bales in June and 321,000 bales |in July last year. The decrease was | reported in shipments to the Orient.

The Commerce Department esti- mated yesterday that the American fleet of wind ships, which still is try- ing to compéte with the steam engine in ocean trade, has dwindled to around & dozen vessels. Of all that vast squadron of sailing ships which brought the United States fame on the seven seas, officials said only a few deep-sea schooners are left in more-or-less regular commerce, Sometimes, during Summer months, the number of sailing vessels carry- ing cargo rises above a dozen, but usually the number is less. A few still are sent out of Balti- more by the Paul family and out of small Maine ports and Boston for Turks Island, in the Bahamas, to load salt, or are dispatched to South America for hardwood. A few schoon- ers carry lumber between Georgetown, 8. C.; Baltimore and New York, and several make occasional trips between New York and “down east,” with coal and potatoes. On the West Coast the schooner Vigilant, owned by the City Mill Co. of Honolulu, makes occasional voy- ages between the Northwest and Ha- wali. Seattle has in its registry the schooner, C. S. Holmes, which is, the Commerce Department said, the last American sailing vessel listed as & whaler. Owned by C. S. Holmes, the ship now is over 40 years old. Americans still have in commission six full-rigged ships, seven barken- tines and four barks, but officials said most, if not all of them, spend their | time tied to docks, and it is @subtful if many ever will put to sea again. The last of the full-rigged vessels are the Tusitala, owned by James A. Farrell, the steel executive, which now is idle in the Hudson River; the Dun- syre, belonging to John H. Hawkins of San Francisco; the Rolph Naviga- tion Co.s Golden Gate, the ship Tango, formerly the Mary Dollar, also of San Francisco; the Pacific Queen, formerly the Star of Alaska, belong- ing to Frank G. Kissinger of San Prancisco, and the Monongahela, owned by the Charles Nelson Co. of Port Angeles, Wash. AUTO WRECK SCATTERS WEDDING BOUQUETS Cut as Car Overturns on Way to Herald Harbor.
