SCHACHT HOPEFUL FOR FRENCH PACT rade Accord Plea Made to ) " Blum by Reichsbank Head H in Paris Trip. {By the Associsted Press. * PARIS, August 28.—Dr. Hjalmar {Bchacht, Germany's “economic dicta- ‘tor,” conferred with Premier Leon Blum and headed homeward today at the close of a combined political-finan- cial mission in which, informed sources said, he pressed for a Franco-German trade accord gs the starting point of a general rapprochement. 4+ The Schacht-Blum conference lasted §n hour and, while the principals would not disclose its details, there were xumors in financial circles that the Bank of International Settlements anight be made the agent for a vast project of European economic and monetary reform. ; Dr. Schacht, who is Reichs minister of economics and president of the Reichsbank in Nazi Germany, declared himself eminently satisfied with “re- sults” before boarding a plane for WVerlin, Clarifies Positions. ‘The plane took off from Le Bourget Airdrome this afternoon. An immediate result of the conver- sations, diplomatic sources believed, was clarification of the German and FPrench stands preparatory to confer- ences this Autumn Emile Labeyrie, governor of the Bank of France, is going to London in September to meet Montagu Nor- man, governor of the Bank of Eng- land. Dr. Schacht is expected to return to Paris before the next meet- ing of the world bank at Basel and the October conference of Locarno powers. Before he left, Dr. Schacht said: “How could one help being satisfied when one just has talked with a man like Blum? I am very happy with results of my trip.” Despite assertions of French offi- cials they would “follow up” his rap- prochement appeals, however, many informed sources believed there were insurmountable obstacles in the way of their fulfillment. Accord Held Unlikely. Anti-Nazi sentiment of the present French government and general dis- trust of Chancellor Adolf Hitler, it was stated, made it unlikely that France would go very far toward extending credits and affording mar- kets to Germany. This belief was strengthened, in- | formed sources said, by the increased military training period announced by Germany to swell the size of its | army. Schacht, who ended his visit here yesterday, had been represented as urging France to aid German eco- nomic rehabilitation as the wisest step to assure peace in Europe. A pros- perous Germany, reliable informants quoted him, would be much less of a menace than a Germany harassed by unemployment and economic ills, A demand thay France establish military training for its youth under conscription age and create a billion- franc fund to finance the project was presented to the Military Affairs Com- mittee by Communist Deputy Marcel Gitton. The political bureau of the Frenc | Communist party adopted a resolu- | tion warning France it “must take measures to cope with the threats weighing upon the nation.” Bar __(Continued From First Page.) loving people of the world, who be- lieve that liberty without law is not | lberty at all.” | The association rejected by over- | whelming votes yesterday resolutions | calling for investigations of the Bil- lings-Mooney case, the Black Legion, and various labor disputes, and voted | to continue in office its special com- mittee created to oppose ratification ©f the child labor amendment.

Cooke, said: “We endanger our democracy if we allow the Great Plains or any other sections of the country to become an economic desert.” The committee had just concluded a personal survey of nine States with | drought-hit areas embracing 40,000,- 000 acres of crop land. “The fundamental purpose of any worthwhile program,” it said, “must be not to depopulate the region, but to make it permanently habitable. The drift away from the Great Plains has already begun and is likely to | continue unless remedial measures are taken without delay.” In his rear platform talk the Presi- dent said the question boiled down to three problems—keeping people going who have lost crops and live stock, helping them until Spring rains | arrive and working out a “plan of | co-operation With nature instead of going along with what we have been doing in the past—trying to buck nature.” The committee recommended estab- | action suggested.” “The board should suggest ways in | which current relief activities may in | considerable measure be made the first steps in the consummation of a | long-range program,” the report said. POPE COMFORTED BY ASTRONOMER Pontiff Views Photo- graphs of Heavens by Father Stein. By the Associated Press. CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy, Au- gust 28.—Pope Pius XI, so frail and exhausted he moves with difficulty, nevertheless arose soon after dawn today to renew his study of the Span- ish situation. But briefly he turned from the dis- couraging world to take comfort in philosophical contemplation of the heavens. He received Father Giovanni Stein, director of the Vatican observatory, who presented to his holiness pho- tographs of the heaven and a comet which Father Stein recently dis- covered. ‘The Pope observed sadly: “If thingd on the earth go badly, at least those in the heavens must necessarily continue well.” He eschewed his daily automobile ride for the first time in a long while. Vatican sources said he found it too much exertion even though he had been napping in the car. Nuns From Barcelona. ‘Shortly after the audience with Father Stein, his holiness was visited | by six nuns from Barcelona. ‘They were presented to him by the abbess of the Convent of the Sisters of St. Claire, who said they left 20 of their number with relatives in Spain because the convent was occu- pied by troops. The Pope's extreme weakness brought little halt in his study of the situation in Spain where Vatican re- ports tell of hundreds of churches burned, desecrated or sacked and of killing and persecution of priests and nuns. He summoned his secretary of State, Eugenio Cardinal Pacelli, for a long conference. His anguish at the church's plight was sald by tes to have accen- tuated the frail henlth of the po who is 79. * Close observers noted the strain under which he has been laboring has mitigated the beneficial results arising from his Summer vacations at Castel Gandolfo. - He has had difficulty in arising from the throne, a condition caused lang..hn sensation of heaviness of his Only Ailment Endocarditis. High prelates said the Pope’s only ailment was endocarditis, an inflam- mation of the endothelial lining mem- brane of the heart. It was not until 1934 that his holi- ness, on the advice of his physicians, sought rest at Castel Gandolfo, a Sum- mer hom= 18 miles from Rome in the Alban Hills. It had not been used by Popes since 1870, when they became “prisoners of the Vatican.” Toward the end of each Summer before his trips to the villa Pope Pius was visibly tired from his work, but after the Summer migrations in July and August it was noted he returned to the Vatican refreshed. The pontiff, however, does not care for the bother of seeing a physician, although he has 20 physicians and sur- geons on the Vatican staff. One is con- stantly on duty. In the later years of his life he has given more attention to his teeth, with frequent visits from his dentist. SALES MANAGER Roofing, Siding, Insulation.
