LAWYERS OPPOSE COURT PLAN 41 American Bar Reveals Vote of 71,000 Members and Non-Members. By the Associatea Press. CHICAGO, April 14—The Amer- ican Bar Association announced last night its final tabulation 6f more than 71,000 lawyers’ votes disclosed about a four-to-one disapproval of what it described as a “proposed increase in the number of members of the Su- preme Court of the United States.” Justice Edward T. Fairchild, of the Wisconsin Supreme Court and chair- man of the association’s Board of Elec- tions, said a count of 52,671 ballots sent in by lawyers who were not mem- bers of the association showed that in every State and in the District of Co- lumbia the non-members as well as members voted against the proposal. The vote of the lawyers who were not members of the association, Justice Fairchild said, was 11,700 for and 40,021 against the plan. The total vote of members and non-members, he said, was 14,333 for and 56,133 against the proposal. Members of the National Junior Bar Conference, comprised of lawyers un- der 36 years old, also voted, four to one, against the proposed increase, Justice Fairchild said. Europe (Continued From First Page.) coming visit to Rome by Hitler’s chiet aide, Col. Gen. Hermann Wilhelm Goering, led to a growing belief among informed circles Germany and Italy planned to remove any possibility of Communist infiltration through “Eu- rope’s back door,” before: turning again to the indecisive military situa- tion in Spain. Germany and Italy are known to plan a formidable wedge from the | Baltic Seas through Central Europe to the Turkish Peninsula in the south, with Italy standing as a barrier reef to impede any flow of communism in the Mediterranean. Germany’s share 'in the campaign has been to bring Poland into the anti- Soviet line-up, whileyItaly has turned her attention to t! Balkans with notable successes in Bringing about a new understanding with Turkey and an alliance with Yugoslavia. | CABINET DENOUNCED LONDON, April 14 (#).—The British government's aroused labor opposition today denounced the cabinet’s de- cision to withhold protection from | English merchant vessels entering be- | sieged Bilbao as “a surrender of the rights of this country.” Clement R. Attlee, leader of his majesty's opposition, launched a full | dress debate on the government’s Spanish policy in the House of Com- mons, while conservative ship owners, likewise angered, joined laborites in condemnation of the Biibao decision. La}.)or (Continued From First Page.) THE EVE Strahl Pleads Not Guilty of $30,000 Swindle. Max Strahl, dapper 34-year-old New York stock salesman, whose activities once led Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt to call for a police investigation, was arraigned in Police Court today, ac- cused of obtaining $30,000 from Mrs. Helen J. G. Reilly, widow of Gen. James Reilly, under false pretenses. Pleading not guilty, Strahl was ordered held for the grand jury in $20,000 bond. Milford Schartz pleaded in vain for a reduction of the high bail. Strahl, alias Lewis Decker, was ar- rested yesterday in Mrs. Reilly’s home at 1747 Q street northwest while he attempted to persuade her to accept & check for $10,000 and drop all charges against him. According to Detective Sergt. Ches- ter Stepp and William M. Malone, su- pervisor of the Washington field of- fice of the Securities and Exchange Commission, who arrested Strahl, he was at liberty under $5,000 bond in connection with a New York stock fraud case when he met Mrs. Reilly. Suave and handsome, Strahl met Mrs, Reilly last June, she told po- lice, and painted to her a rosy pic- ture of large returns to be obtained from investments in Oklahoma oil wells. Mrs. Reilly sald she gave Strahl $15,000 in cash to invest for her. Last November, according to Mrs. Reilly, Strahl returned and persuaded her to put up $15,000 in stocks to “‘pro- tect” her original investment. She NING STAR, WASH T MAX STRAHL. —Star Staff Photo. notified police after she received a let- ter from the American Telephone & Telegraph Co., informing her that her stock in the company had been sold. Police said Justice Department rec- ords revealed that Strahl had been arrested 10 times since 1933 in connec- tion with stock frauds totaling almost $1,000,000. In 1935, Strahl was indicted on charges of swindling Mrs. Blance L. Mackey of Kinderbrook, N. Y., a close friend of Mrs. Roosevelt, of $25,000. Mrs. Roosevelt is said to have per- suaded Mrs. Mackey to call police. Bond of $20,000 was demanded fol- lowing Strahl's arrest here. Judiciary (Continued From First Page.) Supreme Court rulings left leeway for & ban on child labor. | Intimates described him as uncer- tain that it did. He reserved comment on the Wagner decisions, saying he had read them only in a cursory way so far. It was learned, however, that the way the court applied the extension of Federal power over interstate com- merce only to the industries involved in Monday's cases left doubg in official minds about how far the Government could go. One high official summed up the administration reaction to the five- m- ! four opinions of the court as “so| what?” He laughingly quoted one of | the President’s helpers as observing | i that “no nian’s land is now Roberts’ |1and.” | Bill Held Unnecessary Now. | This referred to the widespread comment in the Capital that Justice 'Roberts has held the balance of power | In important decisions on the scope of | Pederal powers.

Warren Madden, chairman of the National Labor Re- lations Board, and Jesse Jones, chair- man of the Reconstruction Finance Corp. Seeks Exchange of Ideas. Miss Perkins said her purpose in calling the conference was to permit leaders of industry, labor and Gov- ernment to exchange their ideas on the methods of approaching collec- tive bargaining and “what ethical at- titude should be taken” toward this new relationship between worker and employer. The Wagner decisions, she said, “will have a great effect on reducing the number and intensity of strikes.” Other representatives of industry invited include Robert Amory, Boston, president Nashua Manufacturing Co.; C. M. Chester, president National Association of Manufacturers; George A. Fuller, Fuller Oonstruction Co.; O. Max Gardner, former Governor of North Carolina, representing the tex- tile industry; George Mead, New York, G. H.

Despite opposition by Senators Ashurst and Burke to compromise by adding less than the proposed six jus- tices to the court unless members over 70 retire, talk of such a proposal per- sisted. Senator Pittman, Democrat, of Ne- vada, a member of the Judiciary Com- mittee pledged to the bill, said he | thought two more justices would be sufficient in view of the liberal trend | taken by the court. “Packing” Charge Seen Offset.

He said: “The whole country should be grate- ful for these decisions. Every one who has dealt with these problems has long recognized that we had developed business activities beyond the reach of the States, over which regulatory power must be lodged somewhere. “Whether we wholly agree or not with the merits of the specific regula- tions, we have had a great step in clarification of this twilight zone which now opens the way for con- structive solution of many problems.” —_— Titanic (Continued Prom Pirst Page.) over the ‘“unsinkable” queen of the seas. Only 711 of the 2,224 passengers and crew who sailed on the vessel's ill-fater maiden voyage survived. Listed as the greatest maritime dis- aster in history, the tragedy struck WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1937 On Mrs. Reilly’s Fraud Charge the 60,000-ton “floating hotel”—the largest ship afloat—slid with a grind- ing wrench along the jagged top of an iceberg, off the Grand Banks, 1,200 miles from New York. The passengers, including million- alres, diplomats and many of the best- known personages of America and Europe, felt only a slight shock. The sea was calm, the sky bright With stars, There was no immediate alarm. In the ball room the band played on. The passengers danced. Wine flowed. Any slow-mounting fears were quelled with the laughing assurance: “Why, the Titanic can’t sink! There are 15 water-tight steel compartments. We'd have to be wrecked 15 times to go down!” But slowly the great ship settled. In the wireless cabin, First Operator J. G. Phillips tapped With'quickening fingers at the wireless “bug”—first a seriesof “C.Q.D....C.Q.D.” Come quick! Distress! Then the urgent, despairing “SOB8...808...” Asthe water flooded deeper and deeper, as imminent death suddenly stared be- wildered men and women in the faces, as the minutes crept closer to the “zero hour” of 2:20 a.m.—then the last tiny figures plunged overboard into the ice-laden waters and the S. 8.
