PRESIDENT GIVES WAR CRISIS STUDY Last-Minute Changes Made in Message as He Plans Return Here. By the Associated Press, HYDE PARK, N. Y, June 1.— Presideni Roosevelt gave his attention to both foreign and domestic questions today as he prepared to end a three- day visit to his Dutchess County home. He continued to watch the critical events growing out of the Spanisn Civil War, receiving reports from State Department officials, with whom he talked by telephone three times yes- terday. Last-minute changes had been made in his special message to Congress recommending tightening of the law to prevent income tax evasion and circumvention. It was due to be trans- mitted during the day from the White House in Washington to both houses. Concern was expressed informally in temporary White House circles over & possible spreading of the Spanish although official comment was 1d tement was expected during The customary Tuesday press conference was when it was learned Mr. had nothing of importance bout with the newspaper men. 1 leave here late tonight and ton tomorrow morn- id his head cold had letely as a result of | nshine. e sat for f his Va erday and ate hot he gave for White per men and photogra- not go in the outdoor hed several members of m and play deck tennis. behind the wheel of a new car and drove about r l\ to a charcoal fire where the h was se s on the 1 late aw newsp.

LEWIS CHARGES 'MURDER.” Declares Chicago Riots Are “Blot on National Conscience.” John L. Lewis, chairman of the Committee for Industrial Organi- zation, charged today the Republic Steel Co. and the Chicago police force were “guilty of planned murder” in | Chicago's week end steel strike vio- lence. Dispatches from Chicago said five | persor day strike riot. were killed. Lewis asserted that “the brutal mas- sacre of the Chicago steel workers is a blot on the national conscience.” “They were unarmed,” he said in |a prepared statement. “The killing | took place on the open prairie, six blocks from the gate of the sacred property of the Republic Steel Co. Six men were killed, a hundred others were shot, gassed and clubbed. Not | a single policeman was shot. Those who were injured suffered from the naked hands of men who were fight- ing for their lives against armed | illers, “The Nation knows the Chicago po- lice force is corrupt. It is the same | force that for years has protected | the hoodlum and the thug. It now aids the Republic Steel Co. This company and the police force are guilty of planned murder. Lewis’ office said six “Somewhere in this Nation should | be a force strong enough to bring | these uniformed killers and their con- spirators to justice. Somewhere in | | this Nation should be a force greater | than a steel company. Somewhere in this Nation should be enough earnest | and honest citizens to compel action FISTER BOOK | by the Federal and State authorities. “Can it be true that striking work- men may be shot at will before the very agents of the law? Is the blood of our American workers less valuable than that in Spain for which we weep? Is labor to be protectgd, or is it to be butchered? The answer is important to both labor and America.” Earhart (Continued From First Page.) —¢ | lifted it easily into the brilliant tropl- 1448 Girard n WRIST WATCH—Lady 2 A T e gold:_ini- North 5081, ‘occasions. small or ter t arge. _Metropolitan_t ‘National 8664, WHEN_YOU HA\E ELECTRICAL WORK to be done, atter how small the job may be, call the h](clrlc Shop on Wheels.

Putnam planned to remain in | Miami until his wife reaches Natal, | Brazil, her jumping-off place for | Africa. A commercial airline (Pan- American) will monitor her flight over | its regular route to South America and expects to have reports on her | progress. Miss Earhart planned to cruise the 1,033 miles to San Juan at a leisurely 150 miles an hour to test her plane further, and said she would return to Miami if anything went amiss. Reports Everything “0. K.” The aviatrix radioed at 6:40 “every- | thing 0. k.” And that she was pro- | ceeding. Her position then was some- | where south of Miami but was not | taken definitely. Aboard the silver-colored craft were emergency food provisions, a rubber | lifeboat and lifebelts in case of a forced landing. at sea. The tanks of | the ship. a land plane, were equipped | so that they could be emptied quickly and would serve to keep it afloat. Miss Earhart considered the 600 gallons of gasoline aboard as more than sufficient for the San Juan hop, although it was little more than half the 1,150 gallons capacity. The same plane crashed with her at Honolulu last March on her first globe-circling | attempt when the landing gear col- lapsed under the weight of the heavy load of fuel. Route to Be Followed. From San Juan, Miss Earhart was to follow the Pan American Airways | route to Natal, Brazil, from there to attempt a South Atlantic crossing to Dakar in Africa. From Dakat she planned a direct flight to Aden on the Gulf of Persia, thence to Karachi, India, Port Darwin, Australia, and Lae, New Guinea. She mapped a course across the Pacific in three hops | —to Howland Island, Honolulu and | Oakland, Calif. The woman flier said she reversed the order of her first attempt because weather conditions over the Caribbean | and Africa probably were better now than they would be later, and she wanted to cover that part of the trip first. On her first attempt Miss Earhart | successfully flew the 2,410 miles from | Oakland to Honolulu, setting a new | record for the crossing. It was on the take-off from Honolulu that the 'landmz gear gave way, causing con- | siderable damage to the plane. The repaired ship was delivered to } her May 20 and she left Oakland next | day, coming here by way of Tucson, | | Ariz., and New Orleans on what she | described as a ‘*shakedown flight.” | She spent all of last week supervising | adjustments to the ship and made several test hops. ‘The Rothschild treasures sale in Lon- don totaled nearly $500,000 the first week.

For instance, white-collar workers in the steel industry will be- come eligible for the United Office and Professional Workers, since the Amal- gamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers had decided not to ex- ercise industrial jurisdiction over office employes.
