HOOVER DEMANDS “CARDS ON TABLE” Denver Crowd Told Recov- ery Set Back Two Years. Speaks Monday. B the Associuted Press. DENVER, October 31. — Former President Hoover, calling for the New Deal to “lay its cards on the table,” headed for California today, where he may make a “last minute” campaign speech Monday night. In an address before a Republican meeting which filled the 3,600 seats of the Municipal Auditorium last night, Hoover joined in the challenge Gov. Alf M. Landon voiced in New York the night before—that Presi- dent Roosevelt answer their questions respecting his plans if re-elected. “Why does not the New Deal really lay its cards on the table?” the former President asked. He demanded the President “reply in plain words” to the questions: “Does he (Roosevelt) propose to re- vive the nine acts which the Supreme Court has rejected * * * has he aban- doned his implied determination to change the Constitution * * * does he intend to stuff the court itself ® ¢ * will he discharge these asso- ciates of his who daily preached the ‘new order’ but whom he does not now allow to appear on this cam- paign?” Freedom Grave Issue, Hoover described the “transcendent {ssue” as “free men and women,” adding, “our people did not recognize the gravity of the issue when I stated it four years ago.” “That is no wonder, for the day Mr. Roosevelt was elected recovery was in progress, the Constitution was un- trampled, the integrity of the Govern- ment and the institutions of freedom ‘were intact,” he said. The subsequent “panic which greeted Mr. Roosevelt's inauguration,” Hoover added, came from “realization of in- tended tinkering with the currency.” In turn, he asserted, “recovery was set back for two years.” Hoover departed from his prepared text to remark: “Mr. Roosevelt lately suggested to those who did not agree with some of his measures that it might be well for them to move to| some other country in which they have greater faith.” Would Restore Faith, “I would suggest instead that we restore faith in this Gavernment,” he added. Hoover said he rejected while Presi- dent most of the ideas since adopted | by the Roosevelt administration “be- cause they would not only delay re- covery, but because I knew that in the end they would shackle free men.” “I rejected the notion of great mo- nopolies and price fixing through codes. * * * “I rejected the schemes of ‘economic planning’ to regiment and coerce the farmer * * * I refused national plans to put the Government into business in competition with its citizens * * * I vetoed the idea of recovery through stupendous spending. * * * “I threw out attempts to centralize relief in Washington for political and social experimentation * * * I defeated | other plans to invade State rights * * * I stopped attempts at currency infla- tion and repudiation of Government obligation.” " The California speech plans, includ- | ing the place, were indefinite, D.

Officials estimated the dead in the Madrid area might reach 200 by morning. (The sound of the sirens warn- ing of the second raid cut short an Associated Press telephone con- versation between Madrid and London. The shrieks could be heard plainly in the London bu- reau of the Associated Press before communication was broken. Later it was re-established.) The deaths of scores of persons, wounded in yesterday afternoon’s sudden bombardment of the capital | and its environs, swelled the toll of Friday’s brief minutes of terror. Official reports, following a check | of Madrid wards, disclosed 125 dead, including 80 women and 20 children, and 360 wounded. Semi-official re- ports from suburban Getafe indicated 42 others had perished, with more than 150 injured. Only 16 Identified. Only 16 of those killed in the cap- ital itself were identifed. The authorities hastened to quiet panicky reports with the assurance that insurgent airmen and not house- top dynamite throwers were responsi- ble for yesterday's havoc. The rumors spread from the fact that no one heard the drone of the Fascist “blackbirds of death” before the bombs fell. The aerial massacre, claiming mostly women and children stunned the city with its sudden, un- heralded descent. No siren alarms were sounded. No droning hum warned of the arrival of the high-flying bombers. watching their children play in a public park in the Glorieta del Bilbao district, suddenly saw them ripped by bursting shrapnel. Eleven children were mowed down while playing in the Plaza Progreso, and the whining fragments of steel inflicted gaping wounds among nearly a hundred grownups in the same area. Bomb Heart of Madrid. Spinning down from a great height, the bombs struck with amazing ac- curacy in the densely-thronged side streets just off the Puerto Del Sol— the “Times Square” of Madrid—and the Rastro “Flea Market” in the Calle Nuncio opposite the Apostolic Nuncio’s Palace. “I have never had to perform such a gruesome task in all my medical experience as piecing together the mangled heads, arms, legs and torso RAGE | picked up in the village streets of ©O._Phone Decatur 2500.

The newspaper Claridad today pub- lished the text of proclamations as- sertedly dropped by insurgent planes on previous raids, reading: “Spaniards! The capture of Madrid by Nationalist (Fascist) troops being near, you are warned that 10 of your people will be shot for each assassina- tion you commit. Do not forget we hold more than 1,000 Red (Socialist) militiamen prisoners in addition to numerous hostages in many provinces. In Madrid alone, 25,000 wounded will answer for your crimes.” The reference to “25,000 wounded” ostensibly meant all injured Madrid government defenders who would be left behind when the capital was evacuated. BALLEARIC ISLANDS SEEN LOST. Haly Will Force Their Secession, Paris Paper Says. PARIS, October 31 (#).—The news- paper L'Oeuvre reported today that Itallan officers, with their forces con- trolling the Spanish Ballearic Islands, planned to force their secession from ! Spain, ‘The officers, the newspaper reported, decided to conduct a plebiscite com- miting the populace to a “declaration of independence.” (The same newspaper reported two days ago that Italy and Germany, supporting Spanish insurgents, were preparing to attack Catalonia, It said strength was being concentrated at Mallorca and eight submarines were ready to leave Northern Italy for the Ballearics. (Official quarters in Rome denied any Italian intervention or designs in Mallorca.) L'Oeuvre said the news has coupled with recent reports Gen. Francisco Franco, Spanish Fascist commander, intended to grant self-government to Spanish Morocco. 1t indicated Germany and Italy had concluded a pact seeking to “mask their seizure of the territories where an autonomous movement would be pro- voked and stabilized through the kind- ness of Hitler and Mussolini.” BARCELONA READY FOR BATTLE Insurgent Boat Retreats After Firing on Gulf of Rosas.

Position of Italy. A naval source stated Italy’s posi- tion with regard to England in the Mediterranean as follows: “In 1935, when the British home Italy, preparing to meet any eventual- ity, placed its fleet at its highest ef- ficiency in history, ably supported by the air force. “If the home fleet was a bluff, the bluff was called. Britain stopped and looked. She saw that the Italian fleet was in a certain inferior ratio of strength to her own fleet, but was capable of inflicting tremendous dam- age, with the help of Italy’s superior air fleet. “So large a portion of the British fleet might be destroyed that Britain would cease to be in the first line of naval strength. “Britain Arms Frenziedly.” “Britain did not put the bluff, if bluff it was, into effect, and Italy won out in Abyssinia. “Now Britain is arming frenziedly. She saw that her ratio of superior strength was not sufficient, and she wants to increase it. “But Italy saw that by having a fleet at a certain ratio of strength with re- gard to the British fleet she could keep the British from striking. “Now she intends to maintain that ratio. As the British build, Italy will build, the ratio will remain the same (Italy does not have to construct as much as England to maintain the ratio) and the British fleet in the Mediterranean will be stymied.” MT.

BY the Assoctated Press. NEW YORK, October 31.—One hundred and ten Manhattan restaue rants and cafeterias, including such familiar midtown spots as Jack Dempsey’s, Lindy’'s and the Hollywood, were named today as victims of a racket which prosecutors blamed for extorting $2,000,000 annually. “Shakedowns” ranging from $250 to the $17,000 allegedly extorted from the six Steuben Taverns were listed in a second indictment returned against the Metropolitan Restaurant and Cafeteria Association and 13 individuals. The 41 specific extortions charged against the ring included $8,200 from Lindy’s restaurants, $750 from the Hollywood and $285 from Jack Demp- sey’s. Three chains, the Tip Toe Inns, Sherman Cafeterias and the C. & L.

In all, the indictment charged ex- tortions totaling $117,585 and attempt- ed extortion of an additional $15,500.

The indictment added charges of conspiracy to extort, attempted ex- tortion and extortion to the counts of conspiracy and embezzlement in the original bill, returned against the same defendants.

Walkouts Hold Up Ships Pending Of- ficial Action. NEW YORK, October 31 (#).— Whether East Coast seamen will join the strike of West Coast maritime | workers hinged today on action to be Union meeting tonight. A vote on a proposal to strike failed of culmination last night at a marine workers’ meeting called by the Sea- men’s Defense Committee, an organi- zation which has clashed with of- ficials of the Seamen's Union. Meanwhile a “sit-down” strike that materialized yesterday held the liner American Trader of the American Merchant Line in port. At least six other American vessels remained at docks in the New York area under orders of owners. Walkouts were reported on the steamships Arizonan at Boston and the William H. Machen at Providence, R. I Notices calling for a walkout were posted on the Matson Naviga tion Co. steamer Mauna Ala at Phil- adelphia. Joseph Curran, chairman of the Seamen’s Defense Committee, indi- cated his group might call a strike if the union did not take action to- night. The American trader failed to sail late yesterday for London when its crew refused to cast off the lines. Twenty-three passengers were trans- ferred to the Cunard White Star liner Samaria and 311 bags of Tegis- tered mail and letters were set aside until noon today. SPREADS ON WEST COAST. 20,000 More May Be Jobless as Result of Strike. SAN FRANCISCO, October 31 (P).— A spreading maritime strike held nearly 150 vessels in coast ports today, paralyzed cargo movements at & peak season and threatened to add more than 20,000 new workers to the idle list headed by 37,000 marine em- ployes. Ships heading for ports from San Diego to Seattle faced tie-up on arrival. Atlantic and Gulf marine commerce faced a spread of the walk- out to those areas.

Wilbur Dickey, business agent for the Houston local of the International Seamen’'s Union, termed them an “outlaw” group. Mayor Angelo J. Rossi of San Fran- cisco, proclaimed an “emergency” here and said it was his intention “to avail myself of such (charter) provisions as may be necessary for the purpose of meeting the existing emergency.” He appointed Attorney Florence M. McAuliffe to represent him in negotia- tions. i McAuliffe headed the Mayor's Emer- gency Committee which functioned in the 1934 strike, climaxed by a mass union walkout here which virtually paralyzed usual activity in this and other bay cities, where the population totals 1,300,000.

CAIRO, October 31.—Reports from Bagdad said today Cen. Jafar Pasha El Askari, minister of defense and “strong man” of Iraq, was shot and killed during a military coup that deposed the cabinet. Army leaders seized power in an uprising Thursday, assembling troops outside Bagdad and sending aircraft to bomb government buildings after a two-hour ultimatum demanding larger expenditures for the army. Later, a dispatch from Bagdad to the Arabic newspaper Falastin in Jerusalem said Gen. Askari, after unsuccessfully trying to foil the mili- tary coup, fled the country with two other members of the cabinet. Iraq, freed from Turkish rule by British and Anglo-Indian troops dur- ing the World War, was governed by Great Britain until it was admitted to the League of Nations and became an independent kingdom in 1932, JERUSALEM, October 31 (/P) —Bekre Sidky, military leader of Iraq, appeared last night as a new power behind the throne of King Ghazi after an army coup which boosted a new government to power.
