Protests From Nation Grow. BACKGROUND— November 18, 24 nations joined to cramp Italy economically by adopting sanctions to boycott Ital- ian goods. September 25 the United States ordered an embargo on shipments of implements of war to Italy and Ethiopia. Harassed by this attitude, Italians have vented their spite by demonstrat- ing against Great Britain, leader in the League sanction movement. Prospect of United States embargo on oil shipments to Italy has aroused ill feeling against this country among Il Duce’s followers. By the 7 ssociated Press. PARIS, November 23.—A warning that an oil embargo against Italy *“would mean war” was reported un- officially today to have been given Premier Plerre Laval by Italian Am- bassador Vittorio Cerruti. vieve Tabouis, a commentator close w gover mt circles, seid in the newspaper L'Oeuvre that Premier Mussolini’s representative delivered the warning in a talk yesterday with Laval. Laval was described in usually well- informed quarters as being opposed to an oil embargo, fearing it would heighten diplomatic tension in Rome and other capitals, with danger that Il Duce's irritation would dash all hopes of settlement of the Italo- Ethiopian conflict. Duce’s Envoy Visits Paris. L’'Oeuvre reported an unofficial en- voy of Mussolini, Marquis Alberto Theodoli, visited Paris to learn 'f the French army and navy would gu into action if the Italians should sink a British ship which was enforcing sanctions. 11 Duce, after receiving Theodoll’s report, was said to have let the Brit- ish government understand thece seemed to be a wide difference be- tween French and British views. Protests against application of sanctions on Italy were growing in Prench quarters, some asking Laval to suspend them. Laval recognized the blow to French business in his reply to Mussolini’s note, objecting to sanctions. Cerruti Sees Laval Again. Ambassador Cerrutl visited Premier Laval again this morning, but officials said there was “nothing new” arising in their conference and that the Ital- ian diplomat was merely keeping in contact with the premier. Officials indicated that France would avoid involving herself in the question of an embargo on ofl and coal since her only oil interests are in Mosul, which is controlled by the British, while France's coal production is in- sufficient for her own needs. France is thinking of her own sup- nlies: of war material. The Subcom- tiee for Nationel Defense of the Chamber of Deputies discussed this problem, certain members ceclaring that France is producing only two tons of magnesium to every eight tons produced in Germany. Aims to Help Conciliation. Laval was working patiently to draw together factors making possible an Italo - Ethioplan peace, informed sources said. He hoped France's gentle reply to Italy’s sanctions pro- test would help the cause of concilia- tion. The premier persisted in his con- sultations with leading foreign diplo- mats, preparing the way for a settle- ment of the conflict on bases British and French foreign office experts were working out for submission at the proper time. Laval replied to Premier Mussolini’s protest against application of League | of Nation's penalties for Italy’s war in Ethiopia in a note handed November 19 to Ambassador Cerruti and pub- lished last night. Held Guilty at Geneva. The French communication recalled that Italy had been judged guilty at Geneva of resorting to war and said, “Whatever its sentiments of friend- ship toward Italy, it was not within the power of the French government to withhold from this declaration.” Laval reiterated that it was the #moral duty” of the League to seek a peaceful solution as quickly as possible and promised that France would “per- severe in that search.” Observers interpreted the note as an indication that only Frence’s de- sire to assure quick working of the League covenant if she were attacked by Germany in the future had proved stronger than her friencship for Italy. OIL SANCTION BACKED. Eritain Would Support Ban if Passed By League. LONDON, November 23 (#)—Au- thoritative sources said today that the British government wiil support a League of Nations sanction against the shipment of oil to Italy if the League decided on it. In an authoritative quarter it was reported the British government had recelved no direct information regard- ing Italy’s views on oil, despite the report that the Italian government ‘would regard the additicn of oll to the list of sanctions as an act of war.

ROSSO PARLEY DETAILS HELD Speculation Rises as Ship Lines Are Warned. By the Associated Press. Secretary of State Hull intimated today that the United States might try to prevent cotton sales to the Italo-Ethiopian war zone if that step becomes necessary. Exactly how trading in that com- modity, essential to a warring nation, could be restricted, the Secretary did not say. But Hull already has issued an unofficial list of “war materials,” including oil, coppér, scrap iron and steel, trucks and tractors. Cotton was not on it. Some thought, therefore, cotton might be included in that list. ‘The embargo proclaimed by Presi- dent Roosevelt November 5 applies only to actual arms and munitions. Americans have been advised further that any dealings in the so-called “war materials” are conducted at their own risk. Cotton Increases Cited. The question arose at a press con- fevence today when newsmen called atrention o Gov figures show- ing shipments of raw cotton to lialy increased substentially compared with the precediig month. Asked whether he considered cot- ton esséntial to war, he replied any question relating to what constitutes prime, essential and immediate war materials shipped in abnormal quan- ties would be given attention. Some observers surmised that the increase in cotton exports in Octo- than to war factors, that the Govern- ment did not consider such exports “abnormal” so far and that for those | reasons the Secretary of State had | omitted cotton from his list. Other Commodities Watched, Hull, sald, however, that he would be very much interested in taking up any questionable case and giving it | consideration, indicating that the Government also was watching closely abnormal shipments of any other com- modities which might be essential to military campaigns. Declining any comment on the ex- port figures published yesterday by the Commerce Department, Hull said | they spoke for themselves and re-f called his statement a week ago in which he asserted that such exports were contrary to the American neu- trality policy. He likewise refused to reveal details of his conference yesterday with the Italian Ambassador, Augusto Rosso, saying they had talked generally about various phases of international rela- tionships, with special reference to Italy and the United States. Asked if the Ambassador had ex- pressed any concern on the American policy of “no trading with the bel- ligerents,” he said he would not under- take oral explanations at this time. Ship Lines Warned.

BJ the Associatec ALAMEDA, Celif., November 23.— A thundering pegasus blazed Uncle Sam’s airmail trail across the Pacific today—pushing on from where the pony express halted. The China clipper, 25-ton seaplane, roaring easily and swiftly under its two-ton load of 115,000 letters, was expected to reach Honolulu, 2400 miles away, about 12:47 p.m. (Eastern standard time), 18 hours after the take-off here. hd Hourly reports by radio informed Pan-American Airways headquarters here of the clipper’s progress, on the first and longest leg of its 8,000-mile flight to Manila, by way of Honolulu, Wake and Guam. Vessels Sail Below. Thousands of feet beneath the glis- tening plane, ocean vessels toiled through the waves, their mails due to arrive days and weeks after the sky liner. Thousands of people waited in the Hawaiian metropolis to shout a greet- ing to the first of a sky fleet which ultimately will carry passengers to Canton, China. As far as Capt. Edwin C. Musick, commander, and his crew of eight were concerned, the flight was merely a routine job.

BACKGROUND— Since 1920 John L. Lewis has fought for labor union organization on an industrial basis—that is, to join all workers in one industry, whether they be electricians or painters, in one master union. Lewis’ United Mine Workers com- pose an industrial union. William Green, American Federation of Labor head, upheld the craft union. Lewis’ strength has never been great enough to overcome Green. Internal dissension in the A. F. of L. because of Lewis’ attitude has been hot. Bringing sharply into view troubles that have stirred the high command of the labor movement, John L. Lewis, international president of the United Mine Workers of America, today re- signed as a vice president of the American Federation of Labor, In a terse letter to William Green, president of the federation, with whom he has been at odds, Lewis said: “Effective this date, I resign as a vice president of the American Fed- eration of Labor.” Lewis’ action, which came as a sur- prise, became known when copies of the communication were distributed from the Mine Workers headquarters in the Tower Building. Question of Organizing. ifference between Lewls and also a2 mine worker, arose over orgenizing policies. The former has stood staunchly for the principle of Industrial unions; the latter, for craft unions, The battle beceme so heated at the recent convention of the federation in Atlantic City that Lewis and Wil- liam Hutcheson, international presi- dent of the carpenters, had a brief physical clash on the convention floor, where Lewis’' plan was voted down. Out of the convention, too, arose another source of disturbance when Lewis, charging that the federation's officers had failed to obey orders, had inserted in the record a long list of resolutions adopted by the previous convention to support his contention nothing had been done about them. When the record was printed a de- tailed denial accompanied each charge. Hutcheson Appointment. The appointment by the federation of Hutcheson as a delegate to the forthcoming International Labor Or- ganization Conference in Santiago, Chile, also created comment, but Green vigorously upheld it, and char- acterized as “false in every particu- lar” a news story carrying the inter- ference that it was a punitive meas- ure directed against Lewis. . Paredoxically, despite their differ- ences, Green invariably has been put in nomination for the presidency of the federation by Lewis. ‘Specializing of Unions. Lewis has contended that the only hope for labor in the mass production industries, such as steel and automo- biles, lay in organization into unions (See LEWIS, Page 2.)

STAND IS REGARDED AS ANSWER TO PROTEST Mrs. Jenckes Serves Notice She Will Fight Any Plan Not Laid Before Property Owners. Commisisoner Melvin C. Hazen promised today to give the taxpayers | of the District ample opportunity to | express their views on any new tax program drawn up by the Special Tax | Committee headed by Corporation | Counsel E. Barrett Prettyman. | The promise is regarded as an an- | swer to a protest filed with the Com- missioners by Representative Jenckes, | Democrat, of Indiana, that the com- | mittee was working on a program to increase the tax burden without giv-| ing property owners a chance to be heard. 9 | Plan Public Hearings. | Commissioner Hazen explained that | the Commissioners did not propose to ignore the taxpayers, but had planned to hold public hearings after the Tax Committee makes its report and be- fore any re —mendations are made | to Congress for new tax legislation.

Mrs. Jenckes' warning wes actuated Ly the fact the Special Tax Commit- tee did not seek the views of the tax- payers while considering a program to | raise millions of dollars in additional | revenue, Additional Tax Not Proposed. In the meantime, Corporation Counsel Prettyman issued a state- ment explaining that no additional | tayes have yet been proposed or con- | sidered. | Prettyman also declared neither his committee nor the Commissioners had | the slightest notion of presenting a tax program to Congress without full opportunity for the public to consider the various proposals. “This is a serious, long-time prob- | lem and not an incidental off-hand | matter” he said. “To obtain the| views of the citizens of the District on | all such matters is a fundamental| | policy of the Board of Commissioners and certainly in so far as I am con- cerned.” | | “Neither the committee nor the| | Commissioners have the slightest | notion of presenting a tax program to Congress without full opportu- | nity for the public to consider the | | various proposals.

NAME OF MAN FRIEND BELIEVED GIVEN POLICE Women Who Saw Car Entering Ridge Wood May Prove Factors ir Mystery. o BACKGROUND— For two weeks baffled detectives and police have combed a lonely wooded ridge in Prince Georges County and grilled witnesses in vain search for clues which would solve the murder of Corinna Lor- ing. The question of who lured the 26-year-old girl from her house to violent death 48 hours before her wedding day has replaced the Mary Baker slaying as Washing- ton’s leading mystery. Richard Tear, her fiance, denies knowledge of motive for killing the girl, as does Mrs. George Loring, her mother. Corinna disappeared No- vember 4; her body was found November 3. Mrs. Frances Loring broke down and was crying today as she entered the office of Police Lieut. Joseph H. Itzel at Upper Marlboro, Md., for further questioning in connection with the mysterious murder of her daughter Corinna. Onlookers were surprised as Mrs, Loring, & woman of strong character, has maintained her compos t all times public since Corinna weeks 2g0. This is the third time Ytzel, who sent here from Balt!more in charge of the murder inquiry, has talked to Mrs. Loring, despite the fact he told reporters after his first inter- view on the day following the funeral he was “convinced she had given him all the information she could and that he did not expect to question her again.” The mother was accompanied by her husband, George A. Loring, when she arrived at Upper Marlboro at 10:30 o’'clock. Leo Lo Jocona, her son-in- law, arrived shortly afterward, and they were still closeted with Itzel an hour later. Other Interviews at Home. This is the first time Itzel has ques- tioned Mrs. Loring at the headquar- ters he has established at Upper Marlboro, the two previous inter- views having been held in her home, at 3110 Beech street, Mount Rainier. Participating in the questioning today was Leo Vogelsang, a detective sergeant, sent from Baltimore to help Itzel. Itzel and Vogelsang were expected 10 return to Baltimore this afternoon, They indicated they would spend Sunday going over the material they have already accumulated. Itzel spent more than an hour in the Loring home yesterday. Accom- panied by Sergt.
