MYSTERY ANIMAL FOSSIL IDENTIFIED AS CREODONT | Specimen Found in Utah Bears | Strong Resemblance to Sabre- Tooth Tiger. | By the Assoclated Press. PRINCETON, N. J, uni June 4.—A ue fossil specimen of an extinct, tigerlike animal found in the Upper | Eocene region of Utah in 1935 by a | Carnegie Museum expedition has been identified by Dr. William Berryman Scott, professor of geology at Prince- | ton University, he said yesterday. After examination of the internal | | tooth structure of the remains, he characterized them as those of a | s of creodont, which “had in- | ndently acquired the characteris- tics of the true sabre-tooth tiger" some 50.000.000 years ago. The speci- men does not, however, belong to the | sabre-tooth tiger group, he said.

Ey the Associated Press. PARIS, June 4.—Premier Leon | Blum, aristocratic, scholarly leader of the masses, returned to the parliamen- tary fray on the first anniversary of | his regime today after personally call- ing on the Senate to approve the gov- ernment’s press-reform bill. Taking conservatlv Senators stern- | ly to task for amending the bill as previously passed by the Chamber of Deputies, the premier declared “legis- | lators must not shackle reforms by inertia and resistance.” Blum, in his Senate appearance last night, demanded that press defama- tlon cases be tried in Police Courts without juries instead of in assizes, where he sald the difficulty of obtain- ing convictions from juries made for the loose enforcement of laws. While the Senate gave Blum scant applause, the Chamber passed, 420 ‘o 141, sory arbitration of labor disputes. Workers Hail Reforms. The working classes represented in | the Blum People’'s Front, while await- ing more reforms, are celebrating those achieved under the Leftist coalition which won a majority in the Chamber | elections of 1936. They are: The 40-hour-weew — extended a bill extending for six months | collective labor contracts and compul- | throughout virtually all industry to some 5,000,000 workers; the govern- ment is drafting decrees for the last holdouts, which include hotels, res- taurants and cafes. Pald vacations—Applied by law to a1l industry. Oollective contracts—Concluded be- tween labor unions and federations of employers under & law providing for union recognition; these raised wages from 7 to 15 per cent. Bank of France reform—The old board of regents was taken out of the hands of the “200 families” and re- placed by a new council of adminis- tration representing government, labor, industry, agriculture, consumers and | investors. Take Profits Out of War. Nationalization of war industries— Private profits taken out of war, with 12 plants taken over by the army and navy and 17 by the air ministry. ‘Wheat office—Prices, production and marketing of wheat controlled by & national inter-professional committee. The council of ministers formally called a halt to its program on March 5, turning to a period of economy in the face of a looming 1937 budget de- ficit of 40,000,000,000 francs (about $869,200,000). Blum called it a “breathing spell”— not a retreat, but simply a pause to gather strength for the next series of | reforms which include old-age pen- sions, a national unemployment fund, | expanded public works and insurance against agricultural disasters. | - -— .
